Description

  The present invention relates to a display / container that can mainly be used for packaging and packaging cylindrical or polygonal cylindrical products or cylindrical containers.

  Conventionally, jar-type containers or wide-mouthed bottle-type containers filled with a sticky product such as a hair-styling cream or ointment among cosmetics and medicines are usually encapsulated by a film called direct heat shrink packaging, that is, generally called shrink packaging. Or enclosed in paper boxes or blister packs for display and sale.

However, in the case of shrink wrapping, the enveloped container itself is only wrapped by a very thin film so that the entire container or the lid and the main body are fitted or screwed together. Although there is no waste in the display space, the same type of competing products are likely to have a relatively similar product form or container design, so they are not good at product identification and poor at appealing products at stores. There is a disadvantage that the entire container is soiled due to, etc., and when enclosed in a paper box, although there is appealing power by printing etc. on the paper box, the stored container is not exposed, so the appealing power by the container itself is lacking In the case of blister packaging, the contained container can be seen visually, and there is appealing power due to the surrounding display space, but the packaging cost In with becomes more expensive, there is a drawback in that it is inconvenient for handling in such set state can not be stacked exhibition.
On the other hand, the form of wrapping a plurality of cans, etc., wrapped with a strip of paperboard or the like, which has been used for collective packaging, is also used for packaging single products, and is displayed on the upper extension on the back. There has been proposed a package of a type having a panel and encapsulating the entire container with a belt-like body and exposing the container by partially cutting the front panel into a window shape. In addition, a case in which a cylindrical product is stored in an assembly box type case in the body part direction and used as an exhibition container has been used for a long time (for example, see Patent Document 1).

However, in the outer packaging with the above-described band-shaped body, the container to be enclosed is visible, and explanation etc. can be given to the outer package, and there is a product appealing power, and it is easy to package, but it falls off or extends from the container to be enclosed In the case of using the display panel as a display board, there was a shift in the stacked display, and the display function could not be maintained such as falling forward and falling, and the appeal of the product such as breakage and contamination due to the drop was lost.
In addition, as shown in Patent Document 1, a packaging body for storing a tubular product in an assembly box type case in the body part direction is a product having a long body part such as a liquid bottle or a tube for a kneaded product. The main part can be displayed, but the entire shape of the storage container cannot be displayed. For products with a short body part, the visible range is narrow and the display effect is low. In addition, when handling by the consumer, in order to take out from the package, it is necessary to open the package with a previously cut-off structure such as a zipper or to partially remove the package, and to remove the container. Although it is possible to display in a stacked manner, there is a drawback that there is a possibility of falling because there is no way to prevent the lateral displacement movement between the packages. In addition, many assembly box type packages require time for assembly, and a simpler one has been demanded.

  Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to solve the above problems, and cylindrical or polygonal cylindrical products or cylindrical containers can be visually recognized even in a normal state, and a collective display by stacking is possible. Another object of the present invention is to provide a display / container that can be removed by a simple operation.

  In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the invention of claim 1 is formed of a cylindrical body formed by connecting both side ends of a belt-like body, and is folded from a portion configured to be at least higher than the height of the stored article. A cylindrical display and use container characterized in that a flexible fixing band is provided and a bottom surface forming means is extended at the lower end edge of the band-shaped body.

  In the invention of claim 2, the height of the front portion of the belt-like body is set to the lowest position substantially equal to the height of the stored item, and the height of the back portion of the band-like member is set to the highest position portion at least higher than the height of the stored item. The cylindrical display combined container according to claim 1 or 2, wherein an upper end edge of the belt-like body is formed in a wave shape that passes through the lowest position and the highest position.

  According to a third aspect of the present invention, there is provided a cylindrical display / container according to the first aspect, wherein a notch portion into which the folded fixing band is inserted is formed in a lower end edge of the band-shaped body.

  According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, there is provided a cylindrical display / container characterized in that the cylindrical display / container according to any one of the first to third aspects is formed of a transparent plastic sheet.

  The invention according to claim 5 is that a locking groove is formed in the vicinity of one side edge of the belt-like body, and a locking collar piece is extended to the other side edge, and the locking groove is formed in the locking groove. The cylindrical display / container according to any one of claims 1 to 4, wherein the cylindrical body is formed by inserting and locking the locking collar piece.

  According to the sixth aspect of the present invention, there is provided a bottom edge-oriented circle in which the bottom surface forming means extending to the lower end edge of the belt-like body extends from the opposed lower end edges of the formed cylindrical body, and is respectively drilled. The cylindrical display combined container according to any one of claims 1 to 5, wherein the arc-shaped latching portions are bottom surface forming means by engaging each other.

  The cylindrical display and container according to the present invention can form a cylindrical or polygonal cylindrical body from a single blank by a simple operation, and is extended from the opposite lower end edge of the cylindrical body. The bottom component piece can be locked and joined by a simple operation to form the bottom, and the container can be easily formed. In addition, after storing the stored items, the top surface of the stored items can be locked by flipping and bending the fixing band provided on the back surface of the curved cylindrical body inward of the container, so that the fixing operation is easy. When removing the stored item, the operation opposite to the fixing operation, i.e., by reversing the fixing band bent and locked to the stored item top surface and returning it to the curved cylindrical body surface, Since it is fully open, it is easy to take out the stored items.

  The cylindrical display / container of the present invention is in a state where the top part is opened except for some fixing elements, so that the lid part from the side, such as a metal can with a low height or a glass bottle container filled with a paste-like product. An exhibition highlighting the display on the top is possible. Of course, by using a transparent plastic sheet such as PP (polypropylene) or PET (polyethylene terephthalate) as a material, the side can be visually displayed and the entire contents can be observed.

  Furthermore, since the cylindrical display combined container of the present invention is formed so that the back portion of the cylindrical body is higher than the height of the stored item, a product appealing element, that is, a product name, a catch phrase, a product photo, etc. Can be displayed by printing.

The cylindrical display combined container of the present invention can be displayed in a stacked manner. As in the embodiment, the upper and lower cylindrical display combined containers are cylindrical containers having the same diameter, but the cylindrical display placed on the lower stage is used. Since the front side of the cylindrical body of the combined container is approximately equal to the height of the stored item, the portion near the bottom of the front side of the cylindrical display combined container placed on the upper stage is the cylinder of the lower cylindrical display combined container It does not fit in the front part of the shape body, so that it is not impossible to place both of them. Similarly, the cylindrical body formed by connecting the both ends of the belt-like body as in the embodiment can be a slightly open cylindrical body depending on the connection state of the belt-like body. It is possible to insert and stack the lower ends of the cylindrical bodies placed on the upper stage at the slightly opened upper ends.
Moreover, the open upper end portion of the cylindrical body of the cylindrical display / container placed on the lower stage forms the cylindrical body at the part where the belt-like body is configured higher than the stored item, so that the upper part is placed on the upper stage. By holding the lower end of the cylindrical body of the cylindrical display / contained container, there is an effect that the cylindrical body does not slip off, and it is possible to suppress damage and contamination due to dropping. At the time of stacking, the cylinder of the cylindrical display and container placed on the upper stage is released by releasing the fixing band of the cylindrical body of the cylindrical display and container placed on the lower stage from the bent fixed state. The lower end of the shaped body can be placed on the top of the lower storage item.

  In addition, in a stacked display, if the cylindrical display / container is made of polygons, display them in the same direction by overlapping the corners of the polygons stacked one above the other in the same part. However, even in the case of a cylindrical container as in the embodiment of the present invention, the stored item is a stored item such as a so-called `` tea bowl with a hill '' having a leg portion with a small diameter in the cylindrical body part, By adopting a structure in which a notch is drilled in a part of the lower edge of the cylindrical body, a fixing band for the lower container is inserted into the notch of the upper container, and displacement due to mutual rotation is restrained, and stacking up and down There is an effect that enables the displayed containers to be displayed in the same direction.

  FIG. 1 is a developed plan view showing a blank of an embodiment of a cylindrical display and container according to the present invention. A blank A ′ formed by punching a sheet material such as paperboard or a plastic sheet material is formed from the bottom side. The upper edge is formed in a wave shape that passes through the front lowest part X and the rear highest part Y whose height h1 is substantially equal to the height of the stored item P, which will be described later, and the lower edge is constituted by a horizontal line. A bottom constituting plate 2 is extended through a fold line L1 at a lower end of the horizontally long belt-like body 1 and the front face lowest position portion X of the belt-like body 1 so as to face the rear face highest portion Y. A bottom component plate 3 extends from the lower end edge via a fold line L2. The bottom component plates 2 and 3 are respectively provided with upward semicircular latching portions 7 and 8 whose lower chords are positioned at a distance approximately equal to the radius of a cylindrical body to be described later from the folding lines L1 and L2. It is installed. Further, a locking collar 4 protrudes from the right end edge of the band 1 and a locking groove 5 into which the locking collar 4 is inserted is formed near the left end of the band 1. ing. Furthermore, a horizontal cutting line L4 at a position of a height h2 from the bottom side at the back surface of the belt-like body 1, a cutting line L3 parallel to a predetermined width, and a folding line L5 extending between opposing ends of the cutting lines L4, L3, A fixing band 6 is defined by L6. In addition, h2 is substantially equal to the height h1 from the bottom shown in FIG. 1, and is substantially equal to the height of the stored item P described later.

In addition, although illustration etc. are abbreviate | omitted, when the storage thing mentioned later is a jar container etc. which have an octagonal horizontal cross section etc., a predetermined number (8 in the case of an octagon) engraves a vertical fold line beforehand in a strip | belt shape. Thus, it is possible to obtain an octagonal cylindrical body by bending, and it is possible to obtain a cylindrical body according to other polygonal shapes, horizontal cross-sectional shapes of stored items, and the like. Further, along with this, it is possible to appropriately design the shape and the like of the component parts such as the locking collar, the locking groove, the fixing band, and the bottom component plate.
Further, in the case where the trunk structure of the stored item such as the jar container has a tapered structure that expands from the bottom surface to the top surface, the belt-like body is configured in advance along the tapered side surface of the stored item. It is also possible. As the configuration of the belt-like body is changed as described above, the shape of the upper end edge of the belt-like body can be changed without being limited to the wave shape.
Further, in the case of a polygonal cylindrical body, in order to bend the fixing band freely, by forming the fixing band across at least one fold line, the corner portion generated by the formation of the cylindrical body is reduced. The container can be folded inward and bent, and can be fixed in contact with the top of the stored item.

It is preferable to use a plastic sheet such as PP (polypropylene) or PET (polyethylene terephthalate) having transparency from the market display property for the cylindrical display / container according to the present invention. Cardboard, Manila cardboard, etc. can be selected and used. The paper basis weight varies depending on the container size and usage, but is preferably in the range of 150 to 450 g / m ² .

FIG. 2A is an explanatory perspective view showing a state in the middle of assembling the cylindrical display / container according to the present invention. When assembling the cylindrical display / container, the belt-like body 1 is projected into one end edge while being wound in a substantially cylindrical shape. The state is shown in which the locking collar 4 provided is inserted and locked into a locking groove 5 drilled near the other end. At this time, the upper and lower ends of the cylindrical body wound in a substantially cylindrical shape are in an open state, and a bottom component piece extending to the lower end is not hooked.
In addition, when forming the cylindrical body by the connection of the belt-shaped body 1, it is not limited to the connection in which the locking collar 4 of the embodiment is inserted and locked in the locking groove 5, but a plate-shaped body The well-known technique regarding mutual connection can be used. Moreover, although the connection operation part by insertion locking was made into one place for the simplicity of operation, it can also be made strong by providing in several places.

Further, as described above, the upper end edge of the belt-like body 1 in the embodiment is formed in a wave shape that passes through the lowest front part X and the highest rear part Y, and is substantially cylindrical as described above. When it becomes a cylindrical body, it is formed into an elliptical shape by obliquely cutting the cylindrical body due to the continuation of the upper edge, but is not limited to this, for example, when it becomes a cylindrical body Since the rear portion of the screen also serves as a design space for displaying product contents, campaign announcements, etc., it is possible to deform the upper edge of the back portion in accordance with the display content.
In addition, when the structure of a strip | belt shaped object becomes a polygonal shape, the whole shape which the upper end edge of a strip | belt shaped body forms is also changed in connection with this, and a partial deformation | transformation can also be performed similarly to the above.

Next, the opposing bottom component plates 2 and 3 extending to the lower end edge of the belt-like body 1 are bent using the folding lines L1 and L2, respectively, and the semicircular shapes formed in the bottom component plates 2 and 3 respectively. The latching portions 7 and 8 are latched to each other to form a partial bottom portion, which is a perspective view for explanation when the assembled state of the embodiment shown in FIG.
In the embodiment, the bottom component plate is extended to the opposite lower end of the cylindrical body, and the partial bottom portion is formed by the latching of the respective latching notches. However, the present invention is not limited to this. It is good also as a shape which obstructs the whole bottom face of a shape body, and when making it a polygonal cylindrical body as mentioned above, it is desirable to comprise the bottom part structure board according to this.

FIG. 3 is an explanatory perspective view showing the assembled state of the embodiment of the cylindrical display / container according to the present invention. The container P is stored in the substantially cylindrical container having the bottom portion as described above, The fixing band 6 provided on the curved back surface of the body 1 is bent inward toward the inside of the container using the fold lines L5 and L6 at both ends, and the cutting line L4 of the fixing band 6 is formed at one end of the top surface of the stored item P. The end surface of the abutment is in contact, and the stored item P is fixed. In this assembled state, the top surface of the stored item P can be almost visually confirmed. When using paperboard, etc., it is designed on the curved outer surface of the cylindrical outer surface and the inner surface of the back surface by printing on both sides. Appeal by expression is possible. Furthermore, if a transparent plastic sheet such as PP is used, the stored item P can be visually recognized from the cylindrical side surface, and appeal can be made by design expression on the cylindrical side surface and the curved surface of the back portion of the container even by single-sided printing.
When the stored item P is taken out, if the bending state of the fixing band 6 in contact with the top surface of the stored item P is reversed and returned to the curved position of the cylindrical member, the upper portion of the cylindrical member is completely removed. Since it is opened, it can be easily removed.
As described above, when a polygonal cylindrical body is formed in accordance with the shape of the stored item, in order to make the fixing band bendable, at least one of the folding lines engraved to form the polygon is used. By configuring the fixing band across the folding line, one corner portion generated by the formation of the cylindrical body can be folded inward of the container, and can be fixed in contact with the top surface of the stored item.
