DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a packaging material, and more particularly to a flexible packaging material capable of softly wrapping an article to be packaged with one touch.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In order to protect an object to be packaged from impact or damage to its surface, various types of packaging materials for individually and individually packaging the object to be softened have been used. For example, in the case of packaging melon, a mesh-like packaging material made of a soft synthetic resin foam is used. This mesh-shaped wrapping material is continuously manufactured by a special extrusion molding, then cut into an appropriate length, and a melon is pushed into the inside and used.

[0003] However, in such a mesh-shaped packaging material, it is necessary for a user who uses it to perform a complicated operation of opening the opening of the packaging material, pushing the article into a predetermined position and housing it. . Further, when storing and transporting the mesh-like packaging material, although it is folded, it is considerably bulky and has disadvantages in storage and transportation.

[0004] In addition, such packaging materials are often used only to protect articles from impacts and to package them, and the decorativeness is still poor. For this reason, for example, articles packaged in a fruit shop or the like in this manner are generally newly provided with carrying packaging (a paper bag, a paper box, or the like) when they are passed to a customer's hand.

[0005]

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been proposed in view of the above-mentioned problems, and not only can not only be used for packaging an article without any complicated work but also can be easily covered. It is an object of the present invention to provide a novel packaging material that can be used as a hand for carrying a package or as a decoration for an article to be packaged. Furthermore, the present invention
An object of the present invention is to provide a packaging material that can be stacked as a sheet during storage and transportation, and saves space.

[0006]

That is, the present invention provides:
Consists of a soft base sheet mainly composed of synthetic resin foam,
A substantially central portion of the base sheet is formed so as to be reversible as a circular convex portion, and the wrapping pieces which are lifted upward by the reversal of the circular convex portion and wrap around the article are radially integrated with each other. The present invention relates to a packaging material that is extended and a plurality of the wrapping pieces are formed as long wrapping pieces having long ends.

[0007]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 is a plan view showing an example of the packaging material of the present invention,
FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view thereof, FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view showing an inverted state of a packaging material when packaging an article, FIG. 4 is a plan view thereof, and FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view showing another example of the packaging material of the present invention. is there.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a packaging material 10 of the present invention is formed of a soft base sheet 11 and has a circular convex portion 12 and an wrapping piece 20 radially extending from the circular convex portion 12. It is composed of

As the soft base sheet 11 used for the wrapping material 10, a flexible sheet material that wraps an article to be wrapped such as fruit softly without damaging it is preferably used. For example, a sheet material mainly composed of a synthetic resin foam made of polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, polyurethane or the like is preferable. Note that a composite laminated sheet can also be used.

[0010] The circular convex portion 12 is formed at a substantially central portion of the packaging material 10 and, when an article is not wrapped, rises and protrudes to the side where the article to be packaged comes into contact. The circular convex portion 12 is formed in a hemispherical surface (dome shape) so that when an article is placed on the circular convex portion and pressed, the pressure is reversed by the pressure.

A plurality of wrapping pieces 20 are radially and integrally extended from the circular convex portion 12 and formed in a petal shape as shown in the figure. The wrapping piece 20 has the article to be packaged placed on the packaging material 10 and the circular convex portion 12
By reversing to a, the object is automatically lifted upward by the reaction and wraps around the article, and an appropriate number of sheets extend from the circumference of the circular convex portion 12. The number of the wrapping pieces 20 is not particularly limited, and is appropriately set according to the size and shape of the article to be packaged, and is 12 in this embodiment.

The plurality of wrapping pieces in the wrapping piece 20 are long wrapping pieces 25, 25,.
It is formed as. In this example, four opposing wrapping pieces are formed long. The long wrapping piece 25 is formed to have an appropriate length according to the article to be packaged, and can be used to cover the upper side of the article to be packaged, or can be combined with each other and used as a lowering hand or the like.

The tip 21 of the wrapping piece 20 is formed in a concave shape 22 that curves upward. Thereby,
It can be securely wrapped along the shape of the article to be packaged such as thighs and melons.

In order to increase the strength of the packaging material 10, it is possible to form appropriate ribs and the like on the circular convex portion 12 and the wrapping piece 20 according to the weight and size of the article to be packaged. is there.

Referring to FIG. 3, a state in which an article is packaged using the packaging material of the present invention will be described. An article to be packaged M such as an apple is placed on the circular convex portion 12 of the packaging material 10. The circular convex portion 12 is depressed by the weight of the article M and automatically reversely protrudes to the opposite side of the packaging material. Thereby, the plurality of wrapping pieces 20 formed around the circular convex portion 12 are lifted up as shown by arrows in the figure, and the article can be wrapped with the wrapping material with one touch. Further, since the distal end portion 21 of the wrapping piece 20 is formed in a concave shape 22, the wrapping piece 20 can be softly wrapped along the shape of the article M.

At this time, as can be understood from FIG. 4, the articles 20 are engaged by engaging notches 27 provided at the tips of the opposing long wrapping pieces 25, 25 of the wrapping piece 20 with each other. It can be wrapped up to the upper side of M reliably and protected from impact.

Also, as shown in FIG.
5 and 25 may be combined with an adhesive or the like and used as the lowering hand 26. Further, although not shown, by applying a decorative knot such as a ribbon using the long wrapping piece 25, a high decorative effect is imparted to the packaged object, and it can be used as a gift wrapping material. .

[0018]

As shown and described above, according to the packaging material of the present invention, packaging can be carried out with one touch only by placing an article on the packaging material. Therefore, packaging can be performed simply and reliably without any complicated work. In addition, the packaging material of the present invention has a plurality of wrapping pieces formed longer than other wrapping pieces. It can be used as a hanging hand or as a decorative knot. Furthermore, since the packaging materials of the present invention can be stacked, they can be used very advantageously without requiring a large space during storage and transportation.
