Description
本発明は，サイズの変更が可能な包装箱に関する。具体的に説明すると，一枚のブランクシートからサイズ（箱高さ又は底面積）の異なる複数パターンの組み立て方が可能な包装箱に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a packaging box whose size can be changed. More specifically, the present invention relates to a packaging box capable of assembling a plurality of patterns having different sizes (box height or bottom area) from one blank sheet.
従来から，大きさの異なる商品や数量の異なる商品を効率よく包装することができる畳（たとう）紙タイプの包装箱が知られている（特許文献１）。この包装箱は，段ボールなどの一枚のブランクが用いられており，そのブランクの中央に罫線によって４角形の底面部が形成され，その底面部を中心に該ブランクの幅面方向と長さ面方向とに箱高さに対応する複数の寸法調節用罫線が平行状に設けられるとともに，この底面部の４隅に長さ面方向に向かって切離し可能なジッパーが設けられている。これにより，この包装箱は，長さ面方向の前後両端部と幅面方向の左右両端部をそれぞれ複数の罫線から選ばれた１つの罫線に沿って折り曲げて互いに重ね合わせることで，一枚のブランクから箱高さ及び底面積の異なる３種類の箱の組み立てが可能となっている。具体的には，特許文献１の包装箱は，箱高さ：最低・底面積：最大となる第１のパターン，箱高さ：中程度・底面積：中程度となる第２のパターン，箱高さ：最高・底面積：最小となる第３のパターンで組み立てが可能である。 2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a tatami paper type packaging box that can efficiently package products having different sizes or products having different quantities (Patent Document 1) is known. This packaging box uses a single blank such as corrugated cardboard, and a square bottom surface is formed by a ruled line at the center of the blank, and the width surface direction and the length surface direction of the blank centering on the bottom surface portion. In addition, a plurality of dimension adjusting ruled lines corresponding to the box height are provided in parallel, and zippers that can be separated in the lengthwise direction are provided at the four corners of the bottom surface. In this way, this packaging box is obtained by folding a longitudinal blank and a lateral edge in the width direction along one ruled line selected from a plurality of ruled lines and superimposing them on one blank. Therefore, it is possible to assemble three types of boxes with different heights and bottom areas. Specifically, the packaging box of Patent Document 1 has a box height: minimum / bottom area: a first pattern that is maximum, a box height: medium / bottom area: a second pattern, box that is medium. Assembling is possible with a third pattern of height: maximum and bottom area: minimum.
しかしながら，特許文献１の包装箱は，変更可能なサイズのパターンが３パターンに制限されており，包装対象となる商品の形状や数量によっては依然として包装状態が非効率になる場合がある。特に，特許文献１の包装箱は，箱高さを高くすると底面積が小さくなり，底面積を大きくすると箱高さが低くなるといったように，箱高さと底面積とが反比例の関係にある。商品を包装する際には，商品が箱内部で揺れ動くことを避けるために，箱高さを維持しつつ底面積を小さくしたいという要望が多く存在するが，特許文献１の包装箱のように箱高さと底面積とが反比例的に可変する構造では，このような要望に応えることが難しいという問題があった。 However, the packaging box of Patent Document 1 is limited to three patterns that can be changed, and the packaging state may still be inefficient depending on the shape and quantity of the product to be packaged. In particular, the packaging box of Patent Document 1 has an inversely proportional relationship between the box height and the bottom area, such that when the box height is increased, the bottom area is decreased, and when the bottom area is increased, the box height is decreased. When packaging products, there are many requests to reduce the bottom area while maintaining the height of the box in order to avoid the product swinging inside the box. In a structure in which the height and the bottom area are inversely variable, there is a problem that it is difficult to meet such a demand.
そこで，本発明は，サイズの異なる複数パターンの組み立て方が可能な包装箱において，その変更可能なサイズのパターン数を増加させることを主たる目的とする。 Accordingly, the main object of the present invention is to increase the number of patterns having a changeable size in a packaging box in which a plurality of patterns having different sizes can be assembled.
本発明の発明者は，上記従来発明が抱える課題を解決する手段について鋭意検討した結果，特許文献１の包装箱の基本形状は維持しつつも，四隅に設けられた接続用フラップの所定箇所に切離し可能線を形成することで，変更可能なサイズのパターンを増加させることが可能になるという知見を得た。そして，本発明者は，上記知見に基づけば従来発明の課題を解決できることに想到し，本発明を完成させた。具体的に説明すると，本発明は以下の構成を有する。 As a result of earnestly examining the means for solving the problems of the conventional invention, the inventor of the present invention has maintained the basic shape of the packaging box of Patent Document 1, but at predetermined locations of the connecting flaps provided at the four corners. It was found that by forming a separable line, it is possible to increase the pattern of the changeable size. The inventor has conceived that the problems of the conventional invention can be solved based on the above knowledge, and has completed the present invention. More specifically, the present invention has the following configuration.
本発明は，一枚のブランクシートから箱高さ又は底面積の異なる複数パターンの組み立て方が可能な包装箱に関する。なお，組み立て方のパターンとしては，箱高さと底面積のいずれか一方が異なっていれば一つのパターンとしてカウントする。本発明に係る包装箱は，少なくとも４パターン以上にサイズ変更可能であることが好ましく，５パターン以上又は６パターン以上にサイズ変更可能であることが特に好ましい。 The present invention relates to a packaging box capable of assembling a plurality of patterns having different box heights or bottom areas from one blank sheet. As an assembly pattern, if either the box height or the bottom area is different, it is counted as one pattern. The packaging box according to the present invention is preferably changeable in size to at least 4 patterns or more, particularly preferably changeable in size to 5 patterns or more or 6 patterns or more.
本発明に係る包装箱は，基本的に，底面部１０と，一対の高さ調整用側面部２０と，一対の底面積調整用側面部３０と，４つの接続用フラップ４０とを備える。底面部１０は，４本の罫線１１によって４辺が画定された四角形状をなす。高さ調整用側面部２０は，底面部１０を構成する平行な２辺にそれぞれ連接され，当該２辺に平行な複数の罫線２１が形成されている。底面積調整用側面部３０は，底面部１０を構成する平行な別の２辺にそれぞれ連接され，当該別の２辺に平行な複数の罫線３１が形成されている。接続用フラップ４０は，一対の高さ調整用側面部２０のそれぞれの左右両側に罫線を介して連接され，底面積調整用側面部３０と同方向に延在している。接続用フラップ４０は，包装箱の組立時に対向する他の接続用フラップ４０と接続されるものである。接続方法は特に限定されず，接続用フラップ４０に設けられた噛合溝や開口に係合させてもよいし，接続フラップ４０同士の重畳部分を接着剤やステープルやメカニカルファスナーで固定してもよいし，接続フラップ４０同士を別の部品を用いて固定してもよい。そして，本発明の包装箱は，接続用フラップ４０のそれぞれが，高さ調整用側面部２０に形成された複数の罫線２１の少なくとも１つの延長線上に，切離し可能線４２を有することを特徴とする。なお，切離し可能線４２は，高さ調整用側面部２０の罫線２１の延長線上に存在していればよく，この高さ調整用側面部２０に繋がっている必要はない。 The packaging box according to the present invention basically includes a bottom surface portion 10, a pair of height adjusting side surface portions 20, a pair of bottom area adjusting side surface portions 30, and four connecting flaps 40. The bottom surface portion 10 has a quadrangular shape with four sides defined by four ruled lines 11. The height adjusting side surface 20 is connected to two parallel sides constituting the bottom surface 10, and a plurality of ruled lines 21 parallel to the two sides are formed. The side surface portion 30 for adjusting the bottom area is connected to two other parallel sides constituting the bottom surface portion 10, and a plurality of ruled lines 31 parallel to the other two sides are formed. The connecting flap 40 is connected to the left and right sides of each of the pair of height adjusting side surfaces 20 via ruled lines, and extends in the same direction as the bottom area adjusting side surface portion 30. The connecting flap 40 is connected to another connecting flap 40 that faces when the packaging box is assembled. The connection method is not particularly limited, and may be engaged with a meshing groove or opening provided in the connection flap 40, or the overlapping portion of the connection flaps 40 may be fixed with an adhesive, a staple, or a mechanical fastener. Then, the connection flaps 40 may be fixed using different parts. The packaging box of the present invention is characterized in that each of the connecting flaps 40 has a separable line 42 on at least one extension line of the plurality of ruled lines 21 formed on the height adjusting side surface portion 20. To do. The separable line 42 only needs to exist on the extension line of the ruled line 21 of the height adjusting side surface portion 20, and does not need to be connected to the height adjusting side surface portion 20.
上記構成のように，各接続用フラップ４０に底面積調整用の切離し可能線４２を少なくとも１箇所（好ましくは複数箇所）に形成することで，包装箱のサイズのパターンを１つ以上増やすことができる。例えば，切離し可能線４２を設けない場合に３パターンにサイズを変更可能な包装箱の構造であれば，上記切離し可能線４２を設けることで６パターンまでパターン数を増やすことができる。特に，切離し可能線４２を接続用フラップ４０に設けることで，箱高さを維持しつつ底面積を小さくするといったサイズ変更が可能となる。これにより，包装箱内に緩衝材などを詰め込まなくても，包装箱の内壁に商品を密着させることができるため，商品の包装状態を効率化することができる。 As in the above configuration, by forming at least one (preferably a plurality of) separable lines 42 for adjusting the bottom area in each connecting flap 40, it is possible to increase the packaging box size pattern by one or more. it can. For example, in the case of a packaging box structure in which the size can be changed to 3 patterns when the separable lines 42 are not provided, the number of patterns can be increased to 6 patterns by providing the separable lines 42. In particular, by providing the detachable line 42 on the connecting flap 40, it is possible to change the size such as reducing the bottom area while maintaining the box height. Accordingly, the product can be brought into close contact with the inner wall of the packaging box without packing a cushioning material or the like in the packaging box, so that the packaging state of the product can be made efficient.
本発明に係る包装箱において，高さ調整用側面部２０は，高さ調整用の第１から第３の罫線２１（ａ〜ｃ）を有することが好ましい。第１の罫線２１（ａ）は，底面部１０の罫線１１から最も低い箱高さ（Ａ）に対応した距離に形成される。第２の罫線２１（ｂ）は，底面部１０の罫線１１から中程度の箱高さ（Ｂ）に対応した距離に形成される。第３の罫線２１（ｃ）は，底面部１０の罫線１１から最も高い箱高さ（Ｃ）に対応した距離に形成される。この場合に，切離し可能線４２は，第１の罫線２１（ａ）と第２の罫線２１（ｂ）の両方の延長線上に形成されていることが好ましい。このように，底面積調整用の切離し可能線４２の数を増やすことで，包装箱のサイズのパターン数をさらに増やすことができる。特に，本発明の包装箱によれば，箱高さ又は底面積の異なる６パターン以上の組み立て方が可能となる。 In the packaging box according to the present invention, it is preferable that the height adjusting side surface portion 20 has first to third ruled lines 21 (ac) for height adjustment. The first ruled line 21 (a) is formed at a distance corresponding to the lowest box height (A) from the ruled line 11 of the bottom surface part 10. The second ruled line 21 (b) is formed at a distance corresponding to the medium box height (B) from the ruled line 11 of the bottom surface part 10. The third ruled line 21 (c) is formed at a distance corresponding to the highest box height (C) from the ruled line 11 of the bottom surface part 10. In this case, it is preferable that the separable line 42 is formed on an extension line of both the first ruled line 21 (a) and the second ruled line 21 (b). Thus, the number of patterns of the size of the packaging box can be further increased by increasing the number of separable lines 42 for adjusting the bottom area. In particular, according to the packaging box of the present invention, it is possible to assemble six or more patterns having different box heights or bottom areas.
本発明に係る包装箱は，変更可能な箱高さの段階数をＮとした場合に，高さ調整用側面部２０にはＮ本以上の罫線２１が形成され，底面積調整用側面部３０には２Ｎ本以上の罫線３１が形成されていることが好ましい。特許文献１に記載された従来の包装箱は，変更可能な箱高さを３段階に変更可能であり，高さ調整用の側面部には３本の罫線が形成され，底面積調整用の側面部には５本の罫線が形成されている。これに対して，本発明では，底面積調整用側面部３０に形成する罫線３１の数を従来の包装箱よりも１本以上増やすことで，包装箱のサイズのパターン数が増えた場合であっても，組み上がった包装箱の形状を略直方体に維持しやすくなる。 The packaging box according to the present invention has N or more ruled lines 21 formed on the height adjusting side surface 20 when the number of changeable box height stages is N, and the bottom area adjusting side surface 30. It is preferable that 2N or more ruled lines 31 are formed. In the conventional packaging box described in Patent Document 1, the changeable box height can be changed in three stages, and three ruled lines are formed on the side surface for height adjustment, for adjusting the bottom area. Five ruled lines are formed on the side surface. On the other hand, in the present invention, the number of patterns of the size of the packaging box is increased by increasing the number of the ruled lines 31 formed on the side area 30 for adjusting the bottom area by one or more than the conventional packaging box. However, it becomes easy to maintain the shape of the assembled packaging box in a substantially rectangular parallelepiped.
本発明によれば，変更可能なサイズのパターン数を増加させた包装箱を提供することができる。 According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a packaging box in which the number of patterns having a changeable size is increased.
以下，図面を用いて本発明を実施するための形態について説明する。本発明は，以下に説明する形態に限定されるものではなく，以下の形態から当業者が自明な範囲で適宜変更したものも含む。 Hereinafter, embodiments for carrying out the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. This invention is not limited to the form demonstrated below, The thing suitably changed in the range obvious to those skilled in the art from the following forms is also included.
なお，本願明細書において「ほぼ」や「≒」といった表現は，±５ｍｍの差を許容することを意味する。また，図１では，便宜上，Ｘ軸及びＹ軸の直交座標系を示している。本願明細書では，Ｘ軸方向を包装箱の左右方向とし，Ｙ軸方向を包装箱の前後方向とする。 In the present specification, expressions such as “substantially” and “≈” mean that a difference of ± 5 mm is allowed. Further, in FIG. 1, for the sake of convenience, an orthogonal coordinate system of the X axis and the Y axis is shown. In the present specification, the X-axis direction is the left-right direction of the packaging box, and the Y-axis direction is the front-back direction of the packaging box.
図１は，包装箱１００を組み立て前のブランクシートの状態の一例を示している。図１に示されるように，本発明の包装箱１００は，一枚のブランクシートから組み立てることが可能である。包装箱１００のブランクシートには，複数の罫線や切離し可能線が形成されている。包装箱１００は，箱高さや底面積を調整して組み立てることができ，必要な箱高さや底面積を得るために適切な罫線で折り曲げたり，適宜切離し可能線でシートを切り離したりする作業を行う。包装箱１００を構成するブランクシートの例は，段ボールシートであるが，その他に厚紙などの紙製シートや，プラスチックシート，あるいは金属製シート等を用いることもできる。 FIG. 1 shows an example of a state of a blank sheet before the packaging box 100 is assembled. As shown in FIG. 1, the packaging box 100 of the present invention can be assembled from a single blank sheet. A plurality of ruled lines and detachable lines are formed on the blank sheet of the packaging box 100. The packaging box 100 can be assembled by adjusting the height and bottom area of the box, and in order to obtain the required box height and bottom area, the packaging box 100 is folded with appropriate ruled lines, or the sheet is appropriately cut off with a separable line. . An example of the blank sheet constituting the packaging box 100 is a corrugated cardboard sheet, but a paper sheet such as cardboard, a plastic sheet, a metal sheet, or the like can also be used.
図１に示されるように，ブランクシートの中心には，四角形状の底面部１０が設けられている。この底面部１０は，どのように包装箱１００の底面積を変えたとしたも，必ず包装箱１００の底面を構成する部位である。この底面部１０に対して十字状に前後一対の高さ調整用側面部２０と左右一対の底面積調整用側面部３０とが連接されている。すなわち，底面部１０は，４本の罫線１１によって４辺が画定された四角形状の領域である。なお，図１に示した例において，底面部１０は包装箱の前後方向（Ｙ方向）を長手とした長方形状となっているが，底面部１０の形状は正方形であってもよいし，包装箱の左右方向（Ｘ方向）を長手とした長方形状とすることもできる。包装箱の左右方向（Ｘ方向）と平行に延びる２本の罫線１１（ａ）（ｂ）には，それぞれ一対の高さ調整用側面部２０が連接されている。高さ調整用側面部２０のそれぞれは，包装箱の前後方向（Ｘ方向）に延在するパネルである。また，包装箱の前後方向（Ｙ方向）と平行に延びる２本の罫線１１（ｃ）（ｄ）には，それぞれ一対の底面積調整用側面部３０が連接されている。底面積調整用側面部３０のそれぞれは，包装箱の左右方向（Ｙ方向）に延在するパネルである。 As shown in FIG. 1, a square bottom surface 10 is provided at the center of the blank sheet. The bottom surface portion 10 is always a part constituting the bottom surface of the packaging box 100 no matter how the bottom area of the packaging box 100 is changed. A pair of front and rear height adjusting side surface portions 20 and a pair of left and right bottom area adjusting side surface portions 30 are connected to the bottom surface portion 10 in a cross shape. That is, the bottom surface portion 10 is a quadrangular region having four sides defined by four ruled lines 11. In the example shown in FIG. 1, the bottom surface portion 10 has a rectangular shape whose longitudinal direction is the front-rear direction (Y direction) of the packaging box, but the shape of the bottom surface portion 10 may be a square, It can also be made into the rectangular shape which made the left-right direction (X direction) of the box the longitudinal direction. A pair of height-adjusting side surfaces 20 are connected to the two ruled lines 11 (a) and (b) extending in parallel with the left-right direction (X direction) of the packaging box. Each of the height adjusting side surfaces 20 is a panel extending in the front-rear direction (X direction) of the packaging box. A pair of bottom area adjusting side surface portions 30 are connected to the two ruled lines 11 (c) and (d) extending in parallel with the front and rear direction (Y direction) of the packaging box. Each of the bottom area adjusting side surface portions 30 is a panel extending in the left-right direction (Y direction) of the packaging box.
高さ調整用側面部２０には，それぞれ，包装箱１００の高さを調整するための複数の罫線２１が形成されている。高さ調整用側面部２０の各罫線２１は，包装箱の左右方向（Ｘ方向）と平行に延びる。図１に示した例において，高さ調整用側面部２０の罫線２１は，３本設けられており，底面部１０の前後の罫線１１（ａ，ｂ）から近い順に，第１の罫線２１（ａ），第２の罫線２１（ｂ），第３の罫線（ｃ）となる。底面部１０の罫線１１（ａ，ｂ）を起点として，第１の罫線２１（ａ）までの距離は最も低い箱高さ（Ａ）に対応し，第２の罫線２１（ｂ）までの距離は中程度の箱高さ（Ｂ）に対応し，第３の罫線２１（ｃ）までの距離は最も高い箱高さ（Ｃ）に対応する。 A plurality of ruled lines 21 for adjusting the height of the packaging box 100 are formed on the height adjusting side surface 20. Each ruled line 21 of the height adjusting side surface portion 20 extends in parallel with the left-right direction (X direction) of the packaging box. In the example shown in FIG. 1, three ruled lines 21 of the height adjusting side surface part 20 are provided, and the first ruled line 21 ( a), the second ruled line 21 (b), and the third ruled line (c). Starting from the ruled line 11 (a, b) of the bottom surface 10, the distance to the first ruled line 21 (a) corresponds to the lowest box height (A), and the distance to the second ruled line 21 (b) Corresponds to a medium box height (B), and the distance to the third ruled line 21 (c) corresponds to the highest box height (C).
箱高さを最も低くする場合には，ブランクシートを，底面部１０の罫線１１（ａ，ｂ）と高さ調整用側面部２０の第１の罫線２１（ａ）で折り曲げる。箱高さを中程度とする場合には，ブランクシートを，底面部１０の罫線１１（ａ，ｂ）と高さ調整用側面部２０の第２の罫線２１（ｂ）で折り曲げる。箱高さを最も高くする場合には，ブランクシートを，底面部１０の罫線１１（ａ，ｂ）と高さ調整用側面部２０の第３の罫線２１（ｃ）で折り曲げる。このように，本実施形態では，包装箱１００の高さを３段階に変更できる。すなわち，高さ調整用側面部２０の罫線２１の数は，変更可能な箱高さの段階数Ｎに対応する。このように，包装箱１００を組み立てる際に，高さ調整用側面部２０を折り曲げる罫線２１（ａ〜ｃ）を変えることで，包装箱１０の箱高さを変えることが可能となる。それぞれの箱高さ（Ａ〜Ｃ）は適宜設計することが可能であるが，例えばＢはＡの２倍，ＣはＡの３倍などといったように設計すればよい。 In order to make the box height the lowest, the blank sheet is bent at the ruled lines 11 (a, b) of the bottom surface portion 10 and the first ruled lines 21 (a) of the height adjusting side surface portion 20. When the box height is medium, the blank sheet is bent at the ruled lines 11 (a, b) of the bottom surface part 10 and the second ruled lines 21 (b) of the side surface part 20 for height adjustment. When making the box height the highest, the blank sheet is folded at the ruled lines 11 (a, b) of the bottom surface part 10 and the third ruled lines 21 (c) of the height adjusting side surface part 20. Thus, in this embodiment, the height of the packaging box 100 can be changed in three stages. In other words, the number of ruled lines 21 on the height adjusting side surface 20 corresponds to the number N of changeable box height levels. As described above, when the packaging box 100 is assembled, the box height of the packaging box 10 can be changed by changing the ruled lines 21 (ac) for bending the height adjusting side surface portion 20. Each box height (A to C) can be appropriately designed. For example, B may be designed to be twice A, C may be three times A, and so on.
底面積調整用側面部３０には，それぞれ，包装箱１００の底面積を調整しつつ，底面積調整用側面部３０の折り曲げ位置を高さ調整用側面部２０の折り曲げ位置に合わせるための複数の罫線３１が形成されている。底面積調整用側面部３０の各罫線３１は，包装箱の前後方向（Ｙ方向）と平行に延びる。図１に示した例において，底面積調整用側面部３０の罫線３１は，６本設けられており，底面部１０の左右の罫線１１（ｃ，ｄ）から近い順に，第１の罫線３１（ａ），第２の罫線３１（ｂ），第３の罫線３１（ｃ），第４の罫線３１（ｄ），第５の罫線３１（ｅ），第６の罫線３１（ｆ）となる。 Each of the bottom area adjusting side surface portions 30 includes a plurality of pieces for adjusting the folding position of the bottom area adjusting side surface portion 30 to the folding position of the height adjusting side surface portion 20 while adjusting the bottom area of the packaging box 100. Ruled lines 31 are formed. Each ruled line 31 of the side area 30 for adjusting the bottom area extends in parallel with the front-rear direction (Y direction) of the packaging box. In the example shown in FIG. 1, six ruled lines 31 of the bottom surface area adjustment side surface 30 are provided, and the first ruled lines 31 ( a), second ruled line 31 (b), third ruled line 31 (c), fourth ruled line 31 (d), fifth ruled line 31 (e), and sixth ruled line 31 (f).
まず，包装箱１００の底面積を調整するにあたり，底面積を最も小さくする場合には，ブランクシートを，底面部１０の罫線１１（ｃ，ｄ）で折り曲げる。底面積を中程度とする場合には，ブランクシートを，底面積調整用側面部３０の第１の罫線３１（ａ）で折り曲げる。底面積を最も大きくする場合には，ブランクシートを，底面積調整用側面部３０の第２の罫線３１（ａ）で折り曲げる。このように，本実施形態では，包装箱１００の底面積を３段階に変更できるように設計されている。また，図１に示されるように，底面部１０の罫線１１（ｃ，ｄ），底面積調整用側面部３０の第１の罫線３１（ａ），及び第２の罫線３１（ｂ）のそれぞれには，そこでブランクシートを折り曲げた際の底面積の大きさを分かりやすく示すための標識が各罫線近傍に付与されている。 First, when adjusting the bottom area of the packaging box 100, the blank sheet is bent along the ruled lines 11 (c, d) of the bottom surface portion 10 when the bottom area is minimized. When the bottom area is medium, the blank sheet is bent at the first ruled line 31 (a) of the side area 30 for bottom area adjustment. In order to maximize the bottom area, the blank sheet is bent at the second ruled line 31 (a) of the side area 30 for adjusting the bottom area. Thus, in this embodiment, it is designed so that the bottom area of the packaging box 100 can be changed in three stages. Further, as shown in FIG. 1, each of the ruled lines 11 (c, d) of the bottom surface portion 10, the first ruled lines 31 (a) of the bottom area adjusting side surface portion 30, and the second ruled lines 31 (b). Therefore, a mark is provided in the vicinity of each ruled line to clearly show the size of the bottom area when the blank sheet is folded.
ここで，箱高さを最大とし，且つ，底面積を最小とする「第１のパターン」の場合，ブランクシートを，底面部１０の罫線１１（ｃ，ｄ）と底面積調整用側面部３０の第６の罫線３１（ｆ）で折り曲げる。このため，底面部１０の罫線１１（ｃ，ｄ）から底面積調整用側面部３０の第６の罫線３１（ｆ）までの距離（Ｃ’）は，前述した最大の箱高さ（Ｃ）とほぼ等しく設計されている（Ｃ≒Ｃ’）。また，箱高さを中程度とし，且つ，底面積を中程度とする「第２のパターン」の場合，ブランクシートを，底面積調整用側面部３０の第１の罫線３１（ａ）と第５の罫線３１（ｅ）で折り曲げる。このため，底面積調整用側面部３０の第１の罫線３１（ａ）から第５の罫線３１（ｅ）までの距離（Ｂ’）は，前述した中程度の箱高さ（Ｂ）とほぼ等しく設計されている（Ｂ≒Ｂ’）。さらに，箱高さを中程度とし，且つ，底面積を最大とする「第３のパターン」の場合，ブランクシートを，底面積調整用側面部３０の第２の罫線３１（ｂ）と第４の罫線３１（ｄ）で折り曲げる。このため，底面積調整用側面部３０の第２の罫線３１（ｂ）から第４の罫線３１（ｄ）までの距離（Ａ’）は，前述した最小の箱高さ（Ａ）とほぼ等しく設計されている（Ａ≒Ａ’）。このように，Ａ≒Ａ’，Ｂ≒Ｂ’，及びＣ≒Ｃ’の関係を満足するように，各罫線間の距離が設定される。なお，これらの関係性は特許文献１にも開示されている。 Here, in the case of the “first pattern” in which the box height is maximized and the bottom area is minimized, the blank sheet is divided into the ruled line 11 (c, d) of the bottom surface portion 10 and the bottom area adjusting side surface portion 30. The sixth ruled line 31 (f) is bent. For this reason, the distance (C ′) from the ruled line 11 (c, d) of the bottom surface part 10 to the sixth ruled line 31 (f) of the bottom surface adjusting side surface part 30 is the maximum box height (C) described above. Are designed to be approximately equal (C≈C ′). Further, in the case of the “second pattern” in which the box height is medium and the bottom area is medium, the blank sheet is placed on the first ruled line 31 (a) of the side surface portion 30 for bottom area adjustment. 5 is folded at the ruled line 31 (e). For this reason, the distance (B ′) from the first ruled line 31 (a) to the fifth ruled line 31 (e) of the bottom area adjusting side surface 30 is substantially equal to the above-described medium box height (B). Designed equally (B≈B ′). Further, in the case of the “third pattern” in which the height of the box is medium and the bottom area is maximized, the blank sheet is placed on the second ruled line 31 (b) of the side surface portion 30 for bottom area adjustment and the fourth pattern. Is bent at the ruled line 31 (d). Therefore, the distance (A ′) from the second ruled line 31 (b) to the fourth ruled line 31 (d) of the bottom area adjusting side surface 30 is substantially equal to the aforementioned minimum box height (A). Designed (A≈A ′). As described above, the distance between the ruled lines is set so as to satisfy the relations A≈A ′, B≈B ′, and C≈C ′. These relationships are also disclosed in Patent Document 1.
上記に加えて，本発明の包装箱１００では，さらに，箱高さを最小とし，且つ，底面積を中程度とする「第４のパターン」，箱高さを最小とし，且つ，底面積を最小とする「第５のパターン」，及び，箱高さを中程度とし，且つ，底面積を最小とする「第６のパターン」にも包装箱のサイズを変形することができる。上記「第４のパターン」の場合，ブランクシートを，底面積調整用側面部３０の第１の罫線３１（ａ）と第３の罫線３１（ｃ）で折り曲げる。このため，底面積調整用側面部３０の第１の罫線３１（ａ）から第３の罫線３１（ｃ）までの距離（Ａ１）は，前述した最小の箱高さ（Ａ）とほぼ等しく設計されている（Ａ≒Ａ１）。また，上記「第５のパターン」の場合，ブランクシートを，底面部１０の罫線１１（ｃ，ｄ）と底面積調整用側面部３０の第２の罫線３１（ｂ）で折り曲げる。このため，底面部１０の罫線１１（ｃ，ｄ）から底面積調整用側面部３０の第２の罫線３１（ｂ）までの距離（Ａ２）は，前述した最小の箱高さ（Ａ）とほぼ等しく設計されている（Ａ≒Ａ２）。さらに，上記「第６のパターン」の場合，ブランクシートを，底面部１０の罫線１１（ｃ，ｄ）と底面積調整用側面部３０の第４の罫線３１（ｄ）で折り曲げる。このため，底面部１０の罫線１１（ｃ，ｄ）から底面積調整用側面部３０の第４の罫線３１（ｄ）までの距離（Ｂ１）は，前述した中程度の箱高さ（Ｂ）とほぼ等しく設計されている（Ｂ≒Ｂ１）。このように，本実施形態では，従来の第１から第３のパターンに加えて，さらに第４から第６のパターンで包装箱のサイズを変形できるように，底面積調整用側面部３０に各種の罫線３１が形成されている。なお，底面積調整用側面部３０の第３の罫線３１（ｃ）は，特許文献１に開示されていない罫線である。また，本発明において，底面積調整用側面部３０の罫線３１の数は，変更可能な箱高さの段階数Ｎの２倍以上設けられていることが好ましい。例えば，箱高さを３段階に調整可能な構成では，底面積調整用側面部３０には罫線３１を６本以上又は７本以上設けることが好ましい。 In addition to the above, in the packaging box 100 of the present invention, the “fourth pattern” that minimizes the box height and the bottom area is medium, minimizes the box height, and reduces the bottom area. The size of the packaging box can also be changed to the “fifth pattern” to be minimized and the “sixth pattern” to have a medium box height and a minimum bottom area. In the case of the “fourth pattern”, the blank sheet is bent at the first ruled line 31 (a) and the third ruled line 31 (c) of the side area 30 for adjusting the bottom area. For this reason, the distance (A1) from the first ruled line 31 (a) to the third ruled line 31 (c) of the bottom area adjusting side face 30 is designed to be substantially equal to the aforementioned minimum box height (A). (A≈A1). In the case of the “fifth pattern”, the blank sheet is folded at the ruled lines 11 (c, d) of the bottom surface portion 10 and the second ruled lines 31 (b) of the bottom surface adjusting side surface portion 30. For this reason, the distance (A2) from the ruled line 11 (c, d) of the bottom surface part 10 to the second ruled line 31 (b) of the bottom surface adjustment side surface part 30 is the minimum box height (A) described above. It is designed to be almost equal (A≈A2). Further, in the case of the “sixth pattern”, the blank sheet is bent at the ruled lines 11 (c, d) of the bottom surface portion 10 and the fourth ruled lines 31 (d) of the bottom surface area adjusting side surface portion 30. For this reason, the distance (B1) from the ruled line 11 (c, d) of the bottom surface part 10 to the fourth ruled line 31 (d) of the side surface part 30 for bottom area adjustment is the above-described medium box height (B). Are designed to be approximately equal (B≈B1). As described above, in the present embodiment, in addition to the conventional first to third patterns, the bottom area adjusting side surface portion 30 can be variously modified so that the size of the packaging box can be further modified with the fourth to sixth patterns. The ruled line 31 is formed. Note that the third ruled line 31 (c) of the bottom area adjusting side surface part 30 is a ruled line not disclosed in Patent Document 1. In the present invention, it is preferable that the number of ruled lines 31 of the bottom area adjusting side surface portion 30 is more than twice the number of steps N of the changeable box height. For example, in a configuration in which the box height can be adjusted in three stages, it is preferable to provide six or more ruled lines 31 or seven or more ruled lines 31 on the side area 30 for adjusting the bottom area.
図１に示されるように，底面部１０の四隅にはそれぞれ接続用フラップ４０が設けられている。接続用フラップ４０は，一対の高さ調整用側面部２０それぞれの左右両側に罫線を介して連接されたフラップ状のパネルである。接続用フラップ４０と高さ調整用側面部２０の境界に位置する罫線は，底面部１０と底面積調整用側面部３０の境界に位置する罫線１１（ｃ，ｄ）の延長線に相当する。包装箱の組立時に，ブランクシートを底面部１０の罫線１１（ｃ，ｄ）で折り曲げる場合には，接続用フラップ４０もその罫線１１（ｃ，ｄ）の延長線上で折り曲げる。また，接続用フラップ４０には，底面積調整用側面部３０の第１の罫線３１（ａ）及び第２の罫線３１（ｂ）それぞれの延長線上に罫線が形成されている。包装箱の組立時に，ブランクシートを底面積調整用側面部３０の第１の罫線３１（ａ）又は第２の罫線３１（ｂ）で折り曲げる場合には，接続用フラップ４０もそれぞれの罫線３１（ａ，ｂ）の延長線上で折り曲げる。各接続用フラップ４０は，底面積調整用側面部３０と同方向（すなわちＸ方向）に延在する。各接続用フラップ４０のＸ軸方向の長さは，底面部１０と底面積調整用側面部３０の間の罫線１１（ｃ，ｄ）の長さの半分以上に設計すればよい。 As shown in FIG. 1, connection flaps 40 are provided at the four corners of the bottom surface 10. The connecting flap 40 is a flap-shaped panel connected to the left and right sides of each of the pair of height adjusting side surfaces 20 via ruled lines. The ruled line located at the boundary between the connecting flap 40 and the height adjusting side face 20 corresponds to an extension of the ruled line 11 (c, d) located at the boundary between the bottom face 10 and the bottom area adjusting side face 30. When assembling the packaging box, when the blank sheet is folded along the ruled line 11 (c, d) of the bottom surface portion 10, the connecting flap 40 is also folded along the extended line of the ruled line 11 (c, d). In the connecting flap 40, ruled lines are formed on the extended lines of the first ruled line 31 (a) and the second ruled line 31 (b) of the side area 30 for adjusting the bottom area. When assembling the packaging box, when the blank sheet is folded along the first ruled line 31 (a) or the second ruled line 31 (b) of the bottom surface adjustment side face 30, the connecting flap 40 is also connected to each ruled line 31 ( Bend along the extension of a, b). Each of the connecting flaps 40 extends in the same direction (that is, the X direction) as the bottom area adjusting side surface portion 30. The length of each connecting flap 40 in the X-axis direction may be designed to be half or more of the length of the ruled line 11 (c, d) between the bottom surface portion 10 and the bottom area adjusting side surface portion 30.
また，図１に示されるように，接続用フラップ４０は，上段（高さ調整用側面部２０の第３の罫線２１（ｃ）から第２の罫線２１（ｂ）の間に対応する区間）と，中段（高さ調整用側面部２０の第２の罫線２１（ｂ）から第１の罫線２１（ａ）の間に対応する区間）と，下段（高さ調整用側面部２０の第１の罫線２１（ａ）から底面部１０の罫線１１（ａ，ｂ）の間に対応する区間）に分かれる。接続用フラップ４０の上段は，底面部１０の罫線１１（ｃ，ｄ）の延長線から底面積調整用側面部３０の第１の罫線３１（ａ）の延長線まで延出する。接続用フラップ４０の中段は，底面部１０の罫線１１（ｃ，ｄ）の延長線から底面積調整用側面部３０の第２の罫線３１（ｂ）まで延出する。接続用フラップ４０の下段は，底面部１０の罫線１１（ｃ，ｄ）の延長線から所定の長さで延出する。ここにいう所定の長さとは，前述したように，底面部１０と底面積調整用側面部３０の間の罫線１１（ｃ，ｄ）の長さの半分以上とすればよい。 Further, as shown in FIG. 1, the connecting flap 40 has an upper stage (a section corresponding to the interval between the third ruled line 21 (c) and the second ruled line 21 (b) of the height adjusting side surface 20). And a middle stage (a section corresponding to the interval between the second ruled line 21 (b) and the first ruled line 21 (a) of the height adjusting side face 20) and a lower stage (the first of the height adjusting side face 20). Between the ruled line 21 (a) and the ruled line 11 (a, b) of the bottom surface 10. The upper part of the connecting flap 40 extends from the extended line of the ruled line 11 (c, d) of the bottom surface part 10 to the extended line of the first ruled line 31 (a) of the side surface part 30 for adjusting the bottom area. The middle stage of the connecting flap 40 extends from the extended line of the ruled line 11 (c, d) of the bottom face part 10 to the second ruled line 31 (b) of the bottom area adjusting side face part 30. The lower part of the connecting flap 40 extends from the extended line of the ruled line 11 (c, d) of the bottom surface part 10 with a predetermined length. The predetermined length referred to here may be at least half the length of the ruled line 11 (c, d) between the bottom surface portion 10 and the bottom surface adjustment side surface portion 30 as described above.
各接続用フラップ４０と底面積調整用側面部３０の間には，切れ目又は切離し可能線が形成されている。具体的に説明すると，接続用フラップ４０は，底面部１０の罫線１１（ｃ，ｄ）から底面積調整用側面部３０の第２の罫線３１（ｂ）までの範囲で，この底面積調整用側面部３０と切離し可能線４１を介して，切離し可能に連接している。この切離し可能線４１は，主に箱高さを調整するために利用されるものである。この高さ調整用の切離し可能線４１は，底面積調整用側面部３０の第２の罫線３１（ｂ）から第１の罫線３１（ａ）までの範囲に設けられた第１の切離し可能線４１（ａ）と，底面積調整用側面部３０の第１の罫線３１（ａ）から底面部１０の罫線１１（ｃ，ｄ）までの範囲に設けられた第２の切離し可能線４１（ｂ）とに分けられる。他方で，接続用フラップ４０は，底面積調整用側面部３０の第２の罫線３１（ｂ）よりも左右方向外側の範囲では，切れ目によって底面積調整用側面部３０から切り離されている。 A cut line or a separable line is formed between each connecting flap 40 and the bottom area adjusting side surface portion 30. More specifically, the connecting flap 40 is used for adjusting the bottom area in a range from the ruled line 11 (c, d) of the bottom surface part 10 to the second ruled line 31 (b) of the side surface part 30 for adjusting the bottom area. The side part 30 and the separable wire 41 are connected so as to be separable. This separable line 41 is mainly used for adjusting the box height. This height-adjustable separable line 41 is a first separable line provided in the range from the second ruled line 31 (b) to the first ruled line 31 (a) of the bottom area adjusting side surface 30. 41 (a) and the second separable line 41 (b) provided in the range from the first ruled line 31 (a) of the bottom surface adjusting side surface 30 to the ruled line 11 (c, d) of the bottom surface 10. ). On the other hand, the connecting flap 40 is separated from the bottom area adjusting side surface 30 by a cut in a range outside the second ruled line 31 (b) of the bottom area adjusting side surface 30 in the left-right direction.
さらに，本発明の特徴点の一つとして，各接続用フラップ４０は，高さ調整用側面部２０に形成された罫線２１の延長線上に，主に底面積を調整する際に利用する切離し可能線４２が形成されている。すなわち，高さ調整用側面部２０の第１の罫線２１（ａ）の延長線上には，第３の切離し可能線４２（ａ）と第４の切離し可能線４２（ｂ）が形成されている。第３の切離し可能線４２（ａ）は，底面積調整用側面部３０の第２の罫線３１（ｂ）の延長線から第１の罫線３１（ａ）の延長線までの範囲に亘って設けられている。また，第４の切離し可能線４２（ｂ）は，底面積調整用側面部３０の第１の罫線３１（ａ）の延長線から底面部１０の罫線１１（ｃ，ｄ）の延長線までの範囲に亘って設けられている。さらに，高さ調整用側面部２０の第２の罫線２１（ｂ）の延長線上には，第５の切離し可能線４２（ｃ）が形成されている。第５の切離し可能線４２（ｃ）は，第４の切離し可能線４２（ｂ）とほぼ等しい長さに設定される。すなわち，第５の切離し可能線４２（ｃ）は，底面積調整用側面部３０の第１の罫線３１（ａ）の延長線から底面部１０の罫線１１（ｃ，ｄ）の延長線までの範囲に亘って設けられている。接続用フラップ４０は，第３から第５の切離し可能線４２（ａ，ｂ，ｃ）により，その左右方向の端縁から高さ調整用側面部２０に達する範囲まで，必要に応じて左右方向（Ｘ方向）に切り離されることとなる。 Further, as one of the features of the present invention, each connection flap 40 can be separated mainly on the extension line of the ruled line 21 formed on the height adjusting side surface 20 for adjusting the bottom area. A line 42 is formed. That is, the third separable line 42 (a) and the fourth separable line 42 (b) are formed on the extended line of the first ruled line 21 (a) of the height adjusting side surface portion 20. . The third separable line 42 (a) is provided over a range from the extended line of the second ruled line 31 (b) to the extended line of the first ruled line 31 (a) of the side surface portion 30 for adjusting the bottom area.

The fourth separable line 42 (b) extends from the extension line of the first ruled line 31 (a) of the bottom surface area adjustment side face 30 to the extension line of the ruled line 11 (c, d) of the bottom face part 10. It is provided over a range. Further, a fifth separable line 42 (c) is formed on the extended line of the second ruled line 21 (b) of the height adjusting side surface portion 20. The fifth separable line 42 (c) is set to a length substantially equal to the fourth separable line 42 (b). That is, the fifth separable line 42 (c) extends from the extended line of the first ruled line 31 (a) of the bottom surface area adjustment side surface 30 to the extended line of the ruled line 11 (c, d) of the bottom surface part 10. It is provided over a range. The connecting flap 40 can be moved in the left-right direction as necessary from the left-right edge to the height-adjusting side portion 20 by the third to fifth separable lines 42 (a, b, c). It will be separated in (X direction).
また，接続用フラップ４０の下段の先端側には，接続手段４３が設けられている。接続手段４３は，包装箱の組立時に，互いに対向する接続用フラップ４０同士を接続して包装箱の形状を維持する機能を果たす。図１に示した例では，接続手段４３としては，調整可能な底面積の段階数（本例では３段階）に応じて形成された複数の噛合溝が設けられている。噛合溝は，箱を組み立てた際に相対する接続用フラップ４０の噛合溝に嵌合する。 Further, a connecting means 43 is provided on the lower end side of the connecting flap 40. The connecting means 43 serves to maintain the shape of the packaging box by connecting the connecting flaps 40 facing each other during assembly of the packaging box. In the example shown in FIG. 1, the connection means 43 is provided with a plurality of meshing grooves formed according to the number of steps of the adjustable bottom area (three steps in this example). The meshing groove fits into the meshing groove of the connecting flap 40 facing when the box is assembled.
