When a hollow resin plate is applied to such a joint box system, a light weight but high rigidity box can be obtained. For example, a plurality of joined boxes can be divided into, for example, a footrest, a step platform, and a simple partition (partition). For example, it can be used for various purposes.

  However, in such a joint box system, it is necessary to consider the storage property in the disassembled state and the ease of taking out the stored box while securing the joint strength between the boxes during use. There is a problem that it is difficult to select and arrange the joining means for joining the two.

  Note that a toy that has a plurality of blocks whose surfaces are coated with planar fasteners, and can connect to these blocks via planar fasteners, can be in any or a predetermined form is known ( For example, see Patent Documents 4 and 5). The surface fasteners applied to these toys are mixed when males (hooks) and females (loops) are mixed, and the overlapped surfaces are joined together, so it is used when applied to the joining means of the joint box system. It is considered possible to ensure the bonding strength at the time and the storage property in the disassembled state.

  However, when the disassembled boxes are stored in a stacked state, the boxes are joined to each other via the planar fasteners. Therefore, when removing the stored boxes, it is necessary to peel off the joined planar fasteners one by one. There is a problem that the ease of taking out the stored box is impaired.

  The present invention has been considered in view of the above circumstances, and boxes formed of hollow resin plates are easily and reliably joined to each other via a planar fastener, and are stored and stored when not in use.
