Description

There is an application for exception to loss of novelty

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a neck-mounted label-attached bottle capable of containing a free sample, and a neck-mounted label.

This type of neck label is made of a flexible film material and has an opening into which the neck of the bottle body is inserted and a display section. It has been proposed (see paragraph [0024] of Patent Document 1, FIG. 1, etc.). In such a neck label, if a pocket for storing a free sample or the like is provided at the position of the slanted shoulder of the bottle body, it is difficult to insert the free sample, and the label swells when the free sample is inserted, and the contents displayed on the display part are not visible. Since it becomes difficult to see, it is inevitably provided at the position of the barrel portion of the bottle body.

However, if a free sample or the like is stored in the position of the body, the label bulges outward from the body by the size of the free sample or the like. When multiple bottles with neck labels attached are packed in a box and transported, the swollen neck labels may come into contact with adjacent bottles, causing damage to the display or samples, or damage during transportation. Vibration can cause the neck label to become dislodged inside the box, causing a reduction in transport efficiency, such as maintaining a gap between bottles. In addition, it is necessary to consider the environmental impact, such as marine plastic litter becoming a problem in recent years.

JP-A-2005-335802

Therefore, in view of the above-mentioned situation, the present invention aims to solve the problem that even if the sample is stored, it does not swell greatly outward from the bottle, and the display part can be maintained in an easy-to-see state. Even when packed and transported, it is possible to maintain transportation efficiency by avoiding damage to the display part and samples, and the neck label coming off inside the box. It's about providing bottles.

In view of the current situation, the present inventors have made extensive studies and found that a storage space for samples having shape retention can be formed by folding a sheet material made of paper. It was found that if formed by bending to the back side, the flatness of the display portion can be maintained by shape retention and the environmental load can be reduced at the same time. It is possible to position the label on the shoulder of the bottle, thereby preventing the label from protruding to the outside of the bottle, making it bulky during transportation, or interfering with each other, causing damage or falling off, and completed the present invention. came to.

Embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

The bottle 1 according to the present invention is a bottle with a neck-hanging label in which a neck-hanging label 3 made of paper is attached to the neck 20 of the bottle body 2, as shown in FIGS. The bottle body 2 is preferably a bottle for liquid products for oral care, such as a bottle for toothpaste, but is not limited to this, and can be various product bottles. The neck label is a label on which product information (product information) such as information on this liquid product and other related information is displayed.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the neck label 3 is formed by folding a sheet material 30 made of paper. A display plate 32 that is bent downward at a side 31a to display the product information 11 on its front surface, and left and right pressing pieces 33 that are bent toward the back side of the display plate 32 at left and right edges 32b and 32c of the display plate 32. 34, a folding plate 35 that is bent toward the back side of the display plate 32 at an edge 32a of the display plate 32 opposite to the top plate 31, and an edge 35 of the folding plate 35 that is opposite to the display plate 32. It is composed of an insertion piece 36 that is bent toward the back side of the plate 35 and inserted into the gap between the left and right pressing pieces 33 and 34 and the display plate 32 .

Inside surrounded by the display plate 32 of the neck label 3, the left and right pressing pieces 33 and 34, the folding plate 35, and the insertion piece 36, there is a storage space s1 having a shape retention property in which the oral care sample 4 is stored. It is formed. Oral care samples are items associated with liquid products, such as the contents of a bottle body.

According to the neck label 3 of the present invention, the shape-retaining storage space s1 is maintained by folding the paper sheet material. Since the plate 32 also maintains its flatness due to its shape retention, the product information 11 on the surface does not become difficult to see. Furthermore, since the storage space s1 can be positioned at the shoulder portion 21 of the bottle, it is possible to prevent the neck label from protruding to the outside of the bottle, making it bulky during transportation, or interfering with each other, causing breakage or falling off. You can.

As shown in FIG. 4, the neck label 3 is composed of a sheet material 30 made of paper. As for the paper of the sheet material 30, it is preferable to use thick paper which itself has a shape retention property. The thickness is preferably 0.3 mm to 0.6 mm. Among them, paperboard such as coated cardboard generally used for packages and the like can be preferably used. By using eco-friendly paperboard certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), we can expect an annual reduction of 5.6 tons of plastic.

The size of the top plate 31 is set according to the size of the bottle, preferably 30 mm to 80 mm in length and 45 mm to 100 mm in width. The top plate 31 is provided with a through opening 310 into which the neck 20 of the bottle is inserted. The opening 310 basically has a circular edge shape, and has an irregular shape in which inwardly curved projections 311 are provided at a plurality of locations (four locations in this example). The inner diameter of the basic circular portion is set according to the type of bottle, preferably 35 mm to 45 mm. Such a protrusion 311 can prevent the neck label 3 from falling off from the bottle body 2, and also has a cushioning effect, so that even if it is used for bottles with different neck diameters, it will not break when inserted. It is possible to wear with

The distance a1 from the position of the front edge of the opening 310 of the top plate 31 to the front side (or rear side) edge 31a where the display plate 32 is continuously provided depends on the size of the display plate 32, but the bottle body A region of a predetermined distance, for example, a predetermined distance of 5 mm to 15 mm is set so that the display plate 32 can maintain a substantially vertical posture on the outside of the shoulder portion 21 of No. 2 . Since the display plate 32 can be maintained in a state of being bent in a substantially vertical posture, the storage space s1 formed on the back side of the display plate 32 can also be naturally positioned in the space outside the shoulder portion 21 of the bottle body 2. .

A display plate 32 on which product information 11 is displayed on the surface thereof is connected to an edge 31a of the top plate 31, and left and right holding pieces 33 and 34 are connected to left and right edges 32b and 32c of the display plate 32, respectively. is set. The size of the display plate 32 is set according to the size of the bottle, preferably 20 mm to 80 mm in length and 45 mm to 100 mm in width. The product information 11 is information about the liquid product, which is the content of the bottle body 2, and other related information, and is printed and displayed on the surface. Edge sides 33a and 34a of the left and right pressing pieces 33 and 34 near the top plate 31 side are inclined sides that become closer to the folding plate 35 as they go outward.

A folding plate 35 having a shape substantially symmetrical to the shape of the display plate 32 (the same shape and size) is continuously provided on the edge 32a of the display plate 32 opposite to the top plate 31. An inserting piece 36 is connected to the end side 35 a on the opposite side of the display plate 32 . The length of protrusion of the bending plate 35 (the length in the direction perpendicular to the edge 32a) is preferably set to 45 mm to 80 mm. Also, the protruding length of the insertion piece 36 is preferably set to 5 mm to 15 mm. The folding plate 35 is folded back to the back side of the display plate 32 to form a storage space s1 therebetween, and functions as a holding portion for holding the stored oral care sample 4 therebetween.

Information 12 regarding the stored oral care sample 4 is printed and displayed on the surface of the folding plate 35 . Further, at an appropriate position of the folding plate 35, a small window 13 made of a through-hole is provided for confirming the presence of the oral care sample 4 stored in the storage space s1. As a result, forgetting to insert the oral care sample 4 can be prevented. In addition, cut portions 351 and 352 of a predetermined length are provided at the left and right end portions of the end side 35a between the inserting piece 36 and the folding plate 35, respectively.

5 and 6 are explanatory diagrams showing the process of folding each part of the sheet-like label 3 described above and assembling the same with the oral care sample 4 housed inside.

First, as shown in FIGS. 5(a) and 5(b), with the oral care sample 4 placed on the back side of the display plate 32, the left and right holding pieces 33 and 34 are pressed against the left and right of the sample 4. Fold back to the back side of the display plate 32 so as to press it.

Further, the folding plate 35 is folded back, and the insertion piece 36 is inserted into the gap between the left and right pressing pieces 33, 34 and the display plate 32 as shown in FIG. As shown, the inclined sides (end sides 33a, 34a) of the pressing pieces 33, 34 are engaged with the notches 351, 352. As shown in FIG. As a result, the oral care sample 4 is stored in the internal storage space s1 surrounded by the display plate 32, the left and right pressing pieces 33 and 34, the folding plate 35, and the insertion piece 36, and the sample storage process is completed. .

In this manner, the sample 4 can be easily stored by inserting the insertion piece 36 into the gap between the left and right pressing pieces 33, 34 and the display plate 32, and the sample 4 is not easily removed. , the sample 4 can be firmly held in a stable posture without the need for gluing or the like, and can be easily taken out. As described above, since no attachment processing or tape sealing is required, material costs and assembly man-hours can be greatly reduced.

In particular, the inclination angle (θ1) of the inclined sides (end sides 33a, 34a) of the holding pieces 33, 34 with respect to the left and right ends 32b, 32c of the display plate 32 is set to 65° or more, By setting the inclination angle (θ2) of the left and right inclined sides (end sides 36b, 36c) with respect to the end side 35a between the folding plate 35 to 50° or more, packing can be more easily carried out and storage can be carried out more securely. state can be maintained.

Finally, the top plate 31 is folded with respect to the display plate 32 to complete the assembly. The display plate 32 and the top plate 31 may be bent after the top plate 31 is attached to the bottle neck portion 20 . The neck label 3 of the present invention is constructed by folding a sheet material made of paper, so that the production costs for materials, processing, and assembly can be kept low, and the environmental load can be reduced.

Next, a modified example of the neck-mounted label-equipped bottle of the present invention will be described. When the shoulder 21 of the bottle body 2 is nearly horizontal and the space outside the shoulder is short in the vertical direction, when the neck label 3 of the representative embodiment described above is attached, the storage space s1 becomes the body 22 of the bottle body 2. position, and protrudes outward from the bottle body 22 together with the display plate. Therefore, in the case of such a bottle body, as shown in FIGS. 7 to 9, a display plate 32A having a storage space s1 for the oral care sample 4 formed on the back side is connected to the rear of the top plate 31A. and the storage space s1 is positioned above the shoulder portion 21 is a preferred example.

Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 7 to 9, the neck label 3A is formed by folding a paper sheet material 30, and is attached to the back of the top plate 31 attached to the neck portion 20 of the bottle. A display board 32A on which product information 11A is displayed is continuously provided. A display plate 32 is connected to the front side of the top plate 31 via an edge 31a and is bent downward. Product information 11A and 11 are displayed on the surfaces of the display boards 32A and 32, respectively. In this example, the display plate 32 may be omitted, but since the vertical dimension of the display plate 32A is limited, it is preferable to provide the display plate 32 in order to secure the display area for product information.

Left and right pressing pieces 33A and 34A that are bent toward the back side of the display plate 32A are continuously provided on the left and right edges of the display plate 32A. In addition, a folding plate that has a shape (the same shape and size) that is substantially symmetrical to the shape of the display plate 32A on the opposite side of the display plate 32A from the top plate 31 and that can be bent toward the back side of the display plate 32A. 35A are connected. In addition, on the edge of the folding plate 35A opposite to the display plate 32A, there is an insertion piece that is bent toward the back side of the folding plate 35A and inserted into the gap between the left and right pressing pieces 33A and 34A and the display plate 32A. 36A are connected. Cut portions 351 and 352 of a predetermined length are provided at the left and right end portions of the edge 35a between the insertion piece 36A and the folding plate 35A, and are open to the left and right outwards.

A storage space having a shape retaining property in which the oral care sample 4 is stored is enclosed by the display plate 32A of the neck label 3A, the left and right pressing pieces 33A and 34A, the folding plate 35A, and the insertion piece 36A. s1 is formed. Information 12 regarding the stored oral care sample 4 is printed and displayed on the surface of the folding plate 35A.

Even with the neck label 3A according to such a modification, the storage space s1 having shape retention is maintained, so the oral care sample 4 is protected without being damaged, and the display plate 32A is also flat due to the shape retention. is maintained, the merchandise information 11A on the surface is not obscured. In this example, the vertical dimension of the display plate 32A and the folding plate 35A tends to be short. A folding line 353 for mountain folding is provided extending in the horizontal direction so that the folding plate 35A can be folded in the middle.

In addition, since the storage space s1 of this example can be positioned above the shoulder 21 of the bottle, the label protrudes greatly outward from the bottle, making it bulky during transportation or interfering with each other, causing damage or falling off. can be prevented. Even if the bottle protrudes slightly outside from the position above the shoulder 21, for example, it protrudes into the space above the shoulder of the same bottle placed next to it during transportation, so that it does not interfere with each other and bulkiness during transportation can be avoided. .

The procedure for storing the oral care sample 4 of this example, the procedure for assembling, other configurations, modifications, etc. are the same as those of the neck label 3 of the representative embodiment described with reference to FIGS. The same reference numerals are given to the same configurations, and the description thereof is omitted.

Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is by no means limited to these examples, and can of course be embodied in various forms without departing from the gist of the present invention.

In the neck label 3 of the representative embodiment described above with reference to FIGS. Examples in which only the angle of inclination (θ1) (hereinafter referred to as “the angle of inclination of the presser side”) are changed to 50°/70°/80°/90°, respectively, and the left and right inclined sides of the insertion piece 36 ( Only the inclination angle (θ2) between the edge sides 36b, 36c) and the folding plate 35 with respect to the edge side 35a (hereinafter referred to as "the inclination angle of one side of the insertion") is set to 45°/60°/75°/90°, respectively. For each example, the time required to assemble the storage space and the results of measuring the force (holding force) required to remove the insertion piece from the assembled storage space, in particular, will be described.

Table 1 below shows the values of the inclination angle of the pressing piece and the inclination angle of the insertion piece in Examples 1 to 7. Others are common. Specifically, the dimensions of the top plate are 60 mm in length x 60 mm in width, the dimensions of the display plate are 50 mm x 80 mm, the dimensions of the pressing plate are 47 mm x 80 mm, the protrusion length of the pressing piece is 15 mm, and the protrusion length of the insertion piece is 15 mm. was set to 11 mm.

The holding force was measured by hooking a push-pull gauge (manufactured by Imada Co., Ltd.) to the gap between the display plate 32 and the insertion piece 36 of each assembled sample (Examples 1 to 7) and pulling until it was opened. .

The results are shown in FIGS. 10 and 11. FIG. FIG. 10 is a graph summarizing the results of Examples 1 to 4 in which the inclination angle on one side of the insertion is constant (60°). FIG. 11 is a graph summarizing the results of Examples 2 and 5 to 7 in which the inclination angle of the pressing piece side is constant (70°). Here, "reduced assembly time" is the time required for assembly compared to prior art products of flexible film materials that involve tape sealing (how much can be shortened, i.e., the time that can be shortened , and the higher the number, the shorter the assembly time.)

From the results of FIG. 10, it can be seen that by setting the inclination angle of the presser piece side to 65° or more and 75° or less, the package can be packed more easily and the stored state can be more reliably maintained. Also, from the results of FIG. 11, it can be seen that by setting the inclination angle of one side of the insert to 50° or more and 65° or less, packing can be made easier and the stored state can be more reliably maintained.
