Description

  The present invention relates to a ribbon case for storing a plurality of ribbons used for decoration of articles such as gifts and their packaging (articles), or a ribbon case storing these ribbons.

  Conventionally, a ribbon storage case for decoration has been proposed. The storage case includes a storage portion with an open upper end that stores a long ribbon wound in a roll shape, and a plate-shaped portion that is on the storage portion and has an opening through which the ribbon is passed (described later). Patent Document 1).

  According to this conventional storage case, a part of the long ribbon stored in the storage part is pulled out through the opening of the plate-shaped part, and the required length is extracted from a part of the long ribbon pulled out. By cutting the length, a short ribbon can be obtained, and this can be used to decorate articles and the like.

Utility Model Registration No. 3146178

  By the way, ribbons used for decoration include short ribbons cut from long ribbons to which the conventional storage case is applied, as well as regular ribbons with predetermined length dimensions. Also, it is convenient if there is a storage case that can be stored and taken out when using such a regular ribbon.

  Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a ribbon case in which a plurality of decorative ribbons having a predetermined length are stored or a ribbon case in which the plurality of decorative ribbons are stored.

  The present invention relates to a ribbon case storing a plurality of decorative ribbons having a predetermined length dimension and a ribbon case storing the plurality of ribbons. The ribbon case includes a box, a tray accommodated in the box, and a holding member supported on the tray. The plurality of ribbons are overlapped with each other, further folded into two, and placed on the tray with one of both side edges in contact therewith. The holding member holds the plurality of ribbons on the tray at an inverted U-shaped bent portion generated by bending the plurality of ribbons so that the plurality of ribbons can be relatively moved in the longitudinal direction. The box includes a window that exposes the bent portions of the plurality of ribbons and a part of the tray on which the bent portions are placed, or a portion to be formed of the window.

  According to the present invention, a plurality of ribbons having a predetermined length are placed on the tray and stored in the box via the tray. The plurality of ribbons accommodated in the box are exposed to the outside through the box window together with a part of the tray at the inverted U-shaped bent portion, and the bent portions are held on the tray. Since the holding member does not hinder the relative movement of the plurality of ribbons in the longitudinal direction, one of the plurality of ribbons can be extracted from these bent portions. The folded portion has a dense overlap between the ribbons and is difficult to loosen or unravel compared to other unfolded portions, so that the shape of the bent portion is maintained even after the ribbon is pulled out.

  The window for exposing the bent portion of the ribbon to the outside may be provided in the box from the beginning, or a window forming scheduled portion may be provided in the box and formed later. The formation part of the window may be, for example, a part of the box partitioned by continuous cuts provided in the box, and the window is formed along the continuous cuts of the box. It can be formed by removing a part.

  The holding member may comprise a gate having an opening through which the bent portion of the ribbon is narrowed and passed. The gate restrains the bent portion passed through the opening on the tray, but does not hinder the relative movement of the plurality of ribbons in the longitudinal direction. In addition, by constricting the bent portion, the overlapping of the plurality of ribbons in the bent portion is made denser, which contributes to maintaining the shape of the bent portion.

  When the holding member includes the gate, the ribbon case preferably includes a blocking member supported on the tray. The blocking member prevents the bent portions of the plurality of ribbons from coming out of the gate opening.

  When the holding member is made of the gate, the ribbon case preferably includes a stopper provided on the tray. The stopper functions to releasably hold the bent portions of the plurality of ribbons extending through the gate opening on a part of the tray.

  The ribbon housed in the ribbon case is made of, for example, an artificial flower forming ribbon. The artificial flower forming ribbon includes a pair of ribbon pieces that are overlapped with each other and a string that is disposed between the ribbon pieces and extends in the longitudinal direction of the ribbon pieces. Both ribbon pieces and the string are coupled to each other at one end thereof, and both ribbon pieces are movable relative to the other end of the ribbon pieces in the longitudinal direction of both ribbon pieces. The two ribbon pieces are joined to each other at two joining points on each of a plurality of lines which are spaced apart from each other in the longitudinal direction and cross the ribbon pieces. According to this decorative ribbon, artificial flowers are formed when the string is moved relative to the other end so that one end of both ribbon pieces is close to the other end of both ribbon pieces. Due to the relative movement, the connecting portions on the plurality of lines in both ribbon pieces sequentially overlap each other, and the portion between the two adjacent lines of both ribbon pieces is curved. The curved line portion constitutes the artificial flower petal, and these petals constitute the artificial flower corolla.

  Referring to FIG. 1, a ribbon case in which a plurality of decorative ribbons 12 (see FIG. 2) having a predetermined length is accommodated is indicated by a reference numeral 10 as a whole.

  The ribbon case 10 includes a box 14 and a tray 16 (see FIG. 2) housed in the box. The plurality of ribbons 12 are placed on the tray 16. In the illustrated ribbon case 10, all of its constituent members are made of paper material. The ribbon case 10 can be made of, for example, plastic instead of being made of paper.

  The box 14 has a rectangular planar shape. The box 14 may have a planar shape other than the rectangle, such as a polygon, a circle, or an ellipse.

  Further, the tray 16 is formed of a box-like body having an open top, and the box-like body has a rectangular planar shape that conforms to the planar shape of the box 14. The tray 16 may be a flat plate (not shown) instead of the illustrated example.

  The ribbon 12 is used for decoration of an article such as a gift or its packaging (article or the like). The illustrated ribbon 12 includes an artificial flower forming ribbon described below with reference to FIGS. 11 and 12. The length of the decorative ribbon 12 is selected in consideration of the width, which is the distance between the side edges 25, and the type, size, etc. of the article to be decorated.

  As shown in FIG. 11, the ribbon for forming artificial flowers (indicated by reference numeral 12) is a pair of ribbon pieces 18 that are superposed on each other, and the longitudinal direction of both ribbon pieces 18 disposed between both ribbon pieces 18. And a pair of strings 20 extending to the left. Both ribbon pieces 18 and both cords 20 are connected to each other at their one end portions 18a, 20a. Also, the two ribbon pieces 18 are spaced apart from each other in the longitudinal direction of the two ribbon pieces 18 so that the two cords 20 can move relative to the other end portions 18b of the two ribbon pieces 18 in the longitudinal direction of the two ribbon pieces 18. And are connected to each other at two connecting points 22 on each of a plurality of lines 1 across both ribbon pieces 18. The ribbon piece 18 and the string 20 are each made of a woven fabric made of synthetic fiber such as nylon fiber or polyester fiber, and are bonded to each other by welding or heat sealing.

  As shown in FIG. 12, the formation of artificial flowers (not shown) by the artificial flower forming ribbon 12 is performed by moving both strings 20 relative to the other end portions 18 b of both ribbon pieces 18. More specifically, the positions of the other end portions 18b of both ribbon pieces 18 are fixed, and both cords 20 are pulled downward in the drawing. As a result, one end portion 20a of both cords 20 and one end portion 18a of both ribbon pieces 18 fixed thereto are moved toward the other end portion 18b of both ribbon pieces 18, and a part of both ribbon pieces 18, that is, A portion (interline portion) 24 between the coupling points 22 on the two adjacent lines 1 is curved in opposite directions. The relative movement of the two cords 20 is performed until one end portion 18a of both ribbon pieces 18 comes close to the other end portion 18b, and the joining points 22 on the plurality of lines l overlap each other. As a result, the artificial flower having a plurality of curved interline portions 24 as petals and a set of these petals as a flower crown is formed.

  Examples of the ribbon 12 suitable for storage in the ribbon case 10 include a ribbon (not shown) composed of only one ribbon piece in addition to the artificial flower forming ribbon including the pair of ribbon pieces 18 and the string 20. .

  As shown in FIGS. 2 and 5, a plurality of ribbons 12 are overlapped with each other and further folded into two, and one of the side edges 25 defining these width dimensions is in contact with the tray 16 for more detail. The tray 16 is placed in contact with the bottom portion 50 described later. The ribbon 12 is preferably bent at a central location in the length direction of the ribbon. However, it is arbitrary to set a place other than the center as a bent place.

  The plurality of ribbons 12 overlapped with each other and folded have an inverted U-shaped bent portion 26 and two elongated portions 28 extending from the bent portion. The bent portion 26 includes a curved portion 26a that is curved in an arc shape and two continuous portions 26b that are respectively connected to both ends of the curved portion.

  Referring again to FIG. 1, the box 14 in which the tray 16 is accommodated has a rectangular top 30 and bottom 32 that face each other, and four elongated rectangular sides 34 that are connected to the top and bottom 32. The box 14 includes a bent portion 26 of the ribbon 12 and a later-described corner portion B, which is a part of the tray 16 on which the bent portion is placed, in one corner portion A of the four corner portions of the rectangle. 14 is provided with a formation planned portion 56 for forming a window 54 (see FIG. 3) exposed to the outside. The bent portion 26 exposed from the window 54 to the outside of the box 14 enables the ribbon 12 stored in the ribbon case 10 to be taken out. The formation planned portion 56 of the window 54 will be described in detail later.

  In the box 14 shown in the figure, one of the two side portions 34 intersecting at the corner portion A has an elongated rectangular opening for taking in and out of the tray 16 as shown in FIG. 36, and an inner lid 38 and an outer lid 40 that releasably close it. The inner lid 38 is continuous with the bottom 32 of the box 14, and the outer lid 40 is continuous with the top 30. The inner lid 38 has a length dimension that covers the entire mouth 36. On the other hand, the outer lid 40 has a shorter length than the inner lid 38. The inner lid 38 is provided with a tongue 42 that contacts the top 30 of the box 14 and is inserted into the box 14 when the mouth 36 is closed. On the other hand, the outer lid 40 overlaps on an inner lid 38 that directly closes the mouth 36. The outer lid 40 is provided with a pair of tongue pieces 46 to be inserted into the box 14 through a pair of slits 44 provided in the inner lid 38. Reference numeral 48 indicates a flap connected to two side portions 34 adjacent to the mouth 36. The mouth 36, the inner lid 38, the outer lid 40, and the like that are used to put in and out the tray 16 can be provided at other locations than the illustrated location.

  The window 54 (see FIGS. 3 and 4) of the box 14 is formed by a removal mark generated by removing the formation portion 56 of the window 54 from the box 14. Instead of providing the formation scheduled portion 56, the window 54 may be provided from the beginning. In addition, the window 54 or its formation part 56 can be provided in arbitrary places other than each corner part in the box 14. FIG.

  The planned formation portion 56 of the window 54 can be defined by a continuous cut 58 (see FIGS. 1 and 7) provided in the box 14. Referring to FIG. 7, the notch 58 extends through the following path. That is, it goes around the corner of the corner A on the top 30 of the box 14, then proceeds downward on the other side 34 of the two sides 34 toward the bottom 32, and then the bottom 32. The upper side is a path opposite to the path on the top portion 30, that is, around the corner of the bottom 32, and finally, the inner lid 38 and the tongue piece 42 constituting one side 34 of the two side portions 34. Is crossing. Along the notch 58, the top portion 30, the other side portion 34, the bottom portion 32, and the inner lid 38 of the box 14 constituting the corner portion A can be removed, and the removal traces open the window 54. Configure.

  Next, as shown in FIGS. 2, 5, and 8, the tray 16 formed of a box-shaped body with an open top has a rectangular bottom 50 and four side portions 52 that are continuous with the periphery of the bottom. The tray 16 has a corner portion B corresponding to the corner portion A of the box 14, and has a notch 53 formed by notching a part of two side portions 54 that intersect each other at the corner portion. The bent portion 26 of the ribbon extends on one corner B of the tray 16 through the notch 53. It is possible to omit providing the cutout 53. At this time, it is possible to take out the ribbon 12 from the bent portion 26 by inserting a finger into the space where both side portions 52 of the corner portion B of the tray 16 intersect.

  The tray 16 can be inserted into the inside of the box 14 through the mouth 36 of the box 14 and placed on the bottom 32 of the box 14 and can be pulled out of the box 14. The size of the bottom 50 and side 52 of the tray 16 is slightly larger than the size of the top bottom 30, 32 and side 34 of the box 14, respectively, so that the tray 16 fits in the box 14 with a slight gap. It is set to a small one. In addition, the height dimension of the side portion 52 of the tray 16 is set to be slightly larger than the width dimension of the ribbon 12 placed on the bottom portion 50 thereof. When setting in this way, the ribbon case 10 exhibits a relatively flat appearance. Further, rattling of the tray 16 and the ribbon 12 in the box 14 can be minimized when the ribbon case 10 is handled, moved or transported.

  As shown in FIGS. 2 and 5, the ribbon case 10 further includes a holding member 60 that holds the plurality of ribbons 12 placed on the tray 16 on the tray 16 at the bent portions 26. The holding member 60 holds the plurality of ribbons 12 such that they can move relative to each other in the longitudinal direction. Therefore, one of the plurality of ribbons 12 can be pulled out from the outermost periphery of the bent portion 26.

  The illustrated holding member 60 includes a gate. The gate has a rectangular opening 62 through which the bent portion 26 of the ribbon 12 passes. The bent portion 26 is passed through the opening 62 such that the outer peripheral surface of the curved portion 26 a faces the corner portion B of the tray 16. As the shape of the opening 62, any shape other than the rectangle can be selected. Moreover, the opening 62 can be arrange | positioned on the diagonal line which connects the corner part B of the tray 16 and the other corner part opposite to this.

  The opening 62 has a size for constricting the bent portion 26 passed through the opening 62, that is, a size forcing the two continuous portions 26b of the bent portion 26 to come close to each other. By constricting the bent portion 26, the overlapping of the plurality of ribbons 12 in the bent portion 26a of the bent portion is made dense and difficult to unravel.

  As shown in FIGS. 6, 9, and 10, the gate includes a flat plate portion 64 that is placed on the bottom portion 50 of the tray 16 and has a substantially rectangular shape that abuts against the bottom portion and the side portion 52. It is supported on the bottom 50 of the tray 16 via the flat plate portion. The holding member 60 is made of, for example, a rubber band (not shown) that is fixed on the bottom portion 50 of the tray 16 and allows the bent portion 26 of the ribbon 12 to pass through, instead of the illustrated example in which the holding member 60 is configured by the gate. Can be.

  In addition to allowing relative movement in the longitudinal direction of the plurality of ribbons 12, the gate allows the bent portion 26 to move along the diagonal line. Therefore, the bent portion 26 of the ribbon 12 passed through the opening 62 is slightly pulled out from the inside of the box 14 to the outside, and the curved portion 26 a passes through the notch 53 of the tray 16, and is one corner portion of the tray 16. It can project from B to the outside (see FIG. 5). Thereby, pulling-out operation of the ribbon 12 from the bending part 26 can be made easier.

  In the illustrated example in which the holding member 60 is formed of the gate, the bent portion 26 can move in the opposite direction along the diagonal line, that is, toward the other corner portion opposite to the corner portion B. is there. A blocking member 66 is supported on the tray 16 to prevent the bent portion 26 from coming out of the gate opening 62 due to the movement in the reverse direction.

  The illustrated blocking member 66 is formed of a strip-shaped plate extending on the diagonal line, and one end 66a extends to the corner B of the tray 16 through the opening 62 of the gate member (see FIG. 5). On the other hand, the bent portion 26 of the ribbon passed through the opening 62 surrounds one end 66 a of the blocking member 66. According to this, when the one end 66a of the blocking member 66 comes into contact with the inner peripheral surface of the bent portion 26, the movement of the bent portion 26 and the accompanying withdrawal from the opening 62 are blocked.

  Further, the other end 66b of the strip plate constituting the blocking member 66 extends to the other corner portion facing the corner portion B of the tray 16 along the diagonal line. Therefore, in the illustrated example, the blocking member 66 also has a function as a partition plate that divides the top of the tray 16 into two along the diagonal line.

  On the bottom 50 of the tray 16, two relatively short partition plates 68 are supported on both sides of the strip plate constituting the blocking member 66 and extending in parallel with the strip plate. As shown in FIG. 10, the blocking member 66 and the two partition plates 68 can be formed by bending a paperboard and by curling and bending a part of the paperboard. Further, the blocking member 66 and the two partition plates 68 formed of the paperboard are arranged on the flat plate portion 64 of the holding member 60 and extend along the diagonal line.

  The two extending portions 28 extending from the bent portion 26 of the ribbon respectively include two linear spaces defined by the blocking member 66 and the two partition plates 68 from the corner portion B of the tray 16 to the other portions. It is growing towards the corner. The linear space makes the extension of the ribbon extension 28 orderly.

  In the illustrated example, each extending portion 28 of the ribbon 12 passes through the linear space, and then is bent at an end portion of each partition plate 68, and then bent by the side portion of the tray 16 and extended. The ribbons are consolidated by bending of the plurality of ribbons 12 at each partition plate 68, and this gives an appropriate drawing resistance to the one ribbon taken out from the bent portion 26.

  In the illustrated example, two plate-like portions 72 folded back along the cuts formed in the flat plate portion 64 support the partition plates 68 that are located between and in contact with each other.

  As shown in FIGS. 4, 5, and 8, the tray 16 preferably further includes a stopper 74 provided at a corner portion B of the tray 14. The stopper 74 is engaged with the inner peripheral surface of the bent portion 26 of the ribbon extending through the opening 62 of the gate so as to be releasably retained on the corner portion B of the tray 16. The illustrated claw portion 74 is formed by folding back a semicircular cut formed in the corner portion B of the tray 16.

  Note that the holding member 60, the blocking member 66, the partition plate 68, the stopper 74, and the like can be formed independently of each other and can be fixed on the bottom 50 of the tray 16.
