Description

  The present invention relates to a collection box for old newspapers and the like, and particularly stores old newspapers and advertisements that have been read, and can be easily taken out and collected when old newspapers reach a certain amount. It relates to collection boxes such as old newspapers.

  Conventionally, old newspapers that have been read are stored in newspaper-only plastic bags or paper bags, and a certain amount of old newspapers are stored in plastic bags or paper bags when they are collected. At this time, an old newspaper or the like having a predetermined thickness is folded into four and stored in a predetermined plastic bag or the like. However, every time an old newspaper is stored in a specified plastic bag, etc., the old newspaper must be stored in a plastic bag folded in four while opening the mouth of the plastic bag with both hands. The work when storing the product in a plastic bag is somewhat troublesome. In addition, cargo collapse tends to occur after storing old newspapers in plastic bags.

  Therefore, various techniques relating to collection boxes and storage cases for old newspapers for improving and organizing storage operations for old newspapers have been disclosed. For example, a technology relating to a collection box for newspapers and the like that can be used to organize and store old newspapers, insert advertisements, etc. in a collection box and easily bind them with strings etc. when the old newspaper reaches a certain amount is disclosed. (For example, refer to Patent Document 1). According to this technology, hooking grooves are formed at a plurality of locations on a corrugated cardboard assembly-type collection box, and a certain amount of old newspapers are stored in the collection box by hanging strings on the hooking grooves. Then, the old newspaper can be bound with a string without taking it out of the collection box. Thus, if an old newspaper or the like bound with a string is pulled out of the collection box, the bundle of the old newspaper can be separated from the collection box and transported to a waste collection facility or the like. At this time, since the bundle of old newspapers and the collection box can be separated, the collection box can be used any number of times.

  Also, a string is locked in a cardboard storage box with a handle and a bottom plate, and an old newspaper folded in four from the upper opening of the storage box is stored, and a certain amount of the old newspaper is stored. A technique relating to an old newspaper storage box that can carry the storage box and old newspaper in a lump to a waste collection facility by binding them with a string is also disclosed (for example, see Patent Document 2). According to this technique, since collapse of old newspapers does not occur when old newspapers are stacked, a bundle of old newspapers can be stored in a stable state or carried to a waste collection facility.

  Furthermore, prepare a polyethylene sheet that has a bag-like bottom to put an old newspaper, etc., and a pleated sheet on one side of the bottom, and sandwich the four sides of this polyethylene sheet between the outer box and the inner box. Accordingly, a technique related to a storage case that can organize and store old newspapers folded in four from the upper opening of the inner box is also disclosed (see, for example, Patent Document 3). According to this technology, as old newspapers folded and stored in four folds increase, the inner box can be lifted up and the old newspapers can be stacked without collapsing, and when a certain amount of old newspapers accumulates, By tying the four sides of the sheet, the old newspaper wrapped in the polyethylene sheet can be separated and taken out from the outer box and the inner box and transported to a waste collection facility or the like (see, for example, Patent Document 3).

  However, the technique of the above-mentioned Patent Document 1 arranges old newspapers in a collection box and stacks the old newspapers with a string without removing the old newspapers after a certain amount is stored, and then removes the old newspapers from the collection box. It can be withdrawn and transported to a waste collection facility, but in order to wrap an old newspaper in a plastic bag dedicated to newspapers, another operation must be involved. That is, since old newspapers are collected even if the weather on the date of waste collection is rainy, in general, there are many cases where old newspapers are collected in plastic bags or plastic bags. However, in the technique of Patent Document 1, the old newspaper is left in the waste collection facility in a state of being bound only with a string, so in the case of rain, the old newspaper becomes wet and heavy, making it difficult to handle. .

  The technique of Patent Document 2 described above can organize and store old newspapers folded by using the four frames of the storage box as a guide, but a certain amount of old newspapers are stored in the waste collection facility together with the storage boxes. Since the storage box is not reusable, the cost of the storage box is wasted. Furthermore, since the technology of Patent Document 3 can wrap old newspapers with polyethylene sheets and leave them in a waste collection facility, there is no risk that the old newspapers will get wet even if the waste collection day is rainy. The polyethylene sheet must have a special shape that can be sandwiched between the outer box and the inner box. In other words, with this technology, it is not possible to store an old newspaper in a storage case using a generally distributed plastic bag for newspapers.

  Therefore, it is possible to store old newspapers etc. using a plastic bag that is generally distributed for newspapers, and to remove only the old newspapers stored in the plastic bag from the collection box. A technical problem to be solved arises in order to realize a collection box such as an old newspaper that can be easily transported to a collection facility, and the present invention aims to solve this problem.
