DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a packaging box used for transporting, storing, or displaying various articles.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, packaging boxes are generally
The base square wall (hereinafter referred to as base wall) and its surrounding 4
The inner box is constituted by four side walls connected to the side and the inside of which is formed as a storage space for articles, and a lid is placed on the inner box from the opening end side of the side wall so as to cover the storage space. When displaying the articles stored in this box at a store or the like, a lid is generally placed over the middle box from the side of the base wall of the peripheral wall, and the box is placed on the opening end side of the side wall so that the articles can be seen by the customer. Is placed on a display shelf or the like. Here, since the display of the product name etc. attached to the article itself is relatively small in many cases, the product name etc. is generally displayed on the outer surface of the lid by printing so that customers can recognize the product name etc. from the box. Is done.

However, in this configuration, since the surface around the lid faces outward at right angles to the direction of the customer to whom the article is facing, the display is often difficult to see from the customer. When the boxes were arranged at narrow intervals, the display tended to be insufficient. Therefore, taking advantage of the fact that the side wall of the inner box is generally folded in a U-shape or a U-shape on the front side and its front end face is formed in a frame shape, the width of the frame-shaped portion is increased. It is conceivable to display a product name or the like on the display, but in such a configuration, there is a problem that the box itself becomes larger than the size of the stored articles.

[0004] Therefore, a technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a packaging box capable of clearly displaying an article name or the like at the time of display without changing the size of the box.

[0005]

Means for Solving the Problems and Action / Effect In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, a packaging box according to the present invention is configured as follows. In other words, the peripheral wall and both end walls opposing each other at the end thereof are the same pentagonal shape in which each end wall is formed by removing one corner of a substantially square shape along an inclined line substantially parallel to its diagonal. Has an inner box that connects the four sides between the two end walls except the inclined line substantially at right angles to the both end walls, and a first opposite side slightly longer than one side of a square forming the both end walls of the inner box. A base wall composed of a second opposite side slightly longer than the length of the peripheral wall connecting the both end walls,
A first opposed side wall connected to the base wall at the first opposite side, and a second opposed side wall connected to the base wall.
A lid having a second opposing side wall connected on opposite sides is provided. The lid has widening means for expanding at least one of the second opposing side walls outwardly to a position corresponding to the length of the diagonal line with respect to the other in order to store the inner box with the diagonal directions of both end walls being the width direction. are doing. The widening means may be configured so that the second opposing side wall rotates around a portion connected to the base wall, or the base opposing wall may extend such that one of the second opposing side walls is kept parallel to the other. The first opposing side wall can be configured in a sliding manner.

[0006] In the above configuration, a portion surrounded by both end walls and the peripheral wall of the inner box is formed as a storage space for articles, and a surface including the inclined lines of both end walls is an opening surface of the storage space. If this box is used, articles are stored and transported in the same manner as in the prior art by storing articles in the middle box and covering the second opposing side wall without extending the lid along the peripheral wall from the storage space side. be able to. When exhibiting an article, the lid is removed and the second opposing side wall is widened, and then the inner box is accommodated therein so that the article faces forward. At this time, since the peripheral walls located on both sides of the opening surface of the storage space are also visible from the front, by displaying the product name or the like on this portion, the product name or the like can be clearly displayed. Also, if a decorative pattern or the like is provided in that portion, the appearance at the time of display can be improved.

As described above, in the above configuration, the opening surface of the storage space is formed obliquely with respect to the outer surface of the box, and the surface on which the product name and the like can be displayed is provided on both sides of the opening surface. In this case, the display function at the time of display can be achieved while keeping the size of the box in the same manner as the conventional case. Further, if the opening surface is simply formed obliquely, the lid cannot be completely covered from the back side, and the appearance of the box decreases, but in the above configuration, the widening means for expanding the second opposed side wall is provided to cover the lid. Since it is completely covered from the back side, the appearance at the time of display does not deteriorate.

In the above construction, the inner surface of the lid is formed by connecting a triangular end wall which forms a substantially square shape in combination with a pentagonal shape of both end walls of the inner box, and two sides perpendicular to each other at the both end walls. It is preferable to incorporate a reinforcing member consisting of a side wall that is formed.

With this configuration, when the lid is put on the inner box from the opening side, the reinforcing member and the inner box are combined to form a hexahedron. Therefore, even if the lid itself is formed of thin cardboard or the like, Articles can be protected more reliably.

[0010] In the above structure, the two middle boxes, the first position where the inclined lines and the diagonal lines are substantially on a straight line, and the inclined lines are substantially perpendicular to each other. The connecting member movably connected between the second position facing inward and the first opposite side slightly longer than the entire width of the two middle boxes set at the second position and both end walls of the middle box. A base wall composed of a second opposite side slightly longer than the length of the contiguous peripheral wall, a first opposed side wall connected to the base wall at a first opposite side, and a second opposed side wall connected to the base wall at a second opposite side. A lid having at least one of the second opposing side walls with respect to the other to accommodate the middle box set at the first position, to the outside to a position corresponding to the full width of the middle box at the first position. It is preferable to provide a widening means for widening.

According to this structure, the articles are stored in the inner box, set at the second position, and the lid, the second opposing side wall of which is not widened, is covered from the storage space side along the peripheral wall, so that the articles are stored. Can be stored and transported two at a time. When exhibiting an article, the lid is removed, the second opposing side wall is widened, and then the middle box set at the first position is stored with the article facing forward. Also in this configuration, since the peripheral walls located on both sides of the opening surface of the storage space can be seen from the front, it is possible to display the product name and the like clearly without increasing the size of the box.

In the above configuration, the inner surface of the lid may be
The front side of the connecting portion of each of the inner boxes so that the inner boxes are held at the second position when the lids are placed on the two inner boxes set at the second position from the inclined line sides of both end walls, that is, from the front side. The back side of the connecting portion of each of the inner boxes so that the inner boxes are held at the first position when the lids are put on the two inner boxes set at the first position from the opposite back side while contacting the inner boxes. It is preferable to provide a positioning member that comes into contact with the positioning member.

According to this structure, when the lid is placed on the back side of the inner box when displaying the articles, the positioning member abuts on the back side of the connecting portion of the inner box, and the inner box is moved to the second position. Because it is held, the orientation of the two articles can be kept constant. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the direction of the inner box from suddenly changing between the time when the inner box is covered with the lid and the time when the inner box is placed on the display shelf or the like.
In addition, when the lid is placed on the front side of the inner box, the positioning member comes into contact with the front side of the connecting portion, so that the two articles are separated by the positioning member. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the two articles from colliding and being damaged during storage or transportation.

Then, the folded pieces 43 and 44 are inserted between the edging member 2 and the holding plate 3 to be mounted on the inner box 1. Thus, the middle box of the present embodiment is completed, and Western liquor and the like are stored in the middle box 1 while being placed on the decoration table 4. In addition, since the rim member 2, the holding plate 3, and the decoration stand 4 are merely provided as ornaments, they do not necessarily need to be attached to the inner box 1.

Next, the structure of the lid made of the cardboard blank 5 shown in FIG. 5 will be described. Since the blank 5 is vertically symmetrical with respect to the center line 5a, the drawing shows only one side thereof, and the assembly is performed in the same manner in the upper and lower sides. The fold line 5p (first opposite side) of the blank 5 is slightly longer than the fold lines 1b and 1c of the blank 1 of the inner box, and the fold lines 5e and 5g (second opposite side) are equal to the fold lines 1a and 1a of the inner box. It is formed slightly longer than 1d.

First, the blank 5 is bent along the folding lines 5b and 5c so that the folding piece 53 overlaps 52 and 55 overlap 54, and the folding line 5d overlaps 5e and 5f overlap 5g. Next, the folded fold lines 5d, 5e and 5f, 5g and 5
By h and 5i, the folded pieces 52 and 54 are set up inside with respect to 51. Then, while folding the folding lines 5j to 5q to fold the folding pieces 52a, 52b and 54a, 54b inward, the folding pieces 56, 57 are folded inside the box, and the ears 57a mesh with the ears 53a, 55a. At this time, the folding line 5r is also provided with a folding habit in the same direction as 5o. As described above, the lid is formed in which the folded piece 51 constitutes the base wall, the folded pieces 56 and 57 constitute the first opposed side wall, and the folded pieces 52 to 55 constitute the second opposed side wall. As shown in FIG. 8, the fold lines 5h and 5j always overlap in this lid,
i and 5l are weighted when bent at 5o, and the second opposing side wall 54 is spread without overlapping when bent at 5r. In other words, the width of the lid is increased by pulling one of the second opposing side walls 54, 55, and the lid is returned to a normal square shape when pushed. In this manner, the fold pieces 54a and 54b and the fold lines 5o and 5r constitute a means for widening the second opposed side wall.

FIG. 6 shows a blank 6 of the reinforcing member housed in the lid 5. This blank 6 is formed of cardboard. In the blank 6, the fold 65 is formed slightly smaller than the fold 51 of the lid 5, and the fold line 6f is formed at an angle and length corresponding to the fold line 1i of the fold 14 of the inner box 1. It is. The blank 6 is first bent at the fold line 6a so that the fold 61 is overlapped with the fold 62, and the fold 62 is set up against the fold 65 at the fold line 6d, and the sides 63a and 64a are aligned with the fold line 6e. The folding pieces 63 and 64 are bent along the folding lines 6b and 6c along the direction. Then, the fold pieces 66 and 67 are bent inward at the fold lines 6e, 6f and 6g, and the fold pieces 63 and 64 are sandwiched between the fold pieces 66 and 67 by inserting the claws 67a into the notches 61a. The reinforcing member thus formed is fitted inside the lid 5 as shown in FIG.

According to the configuration described above, when articles such as Western liquor are stored in the inner box 1 and the lid 5 is covered, the fold line 6f of the reinforcing member 6 substantially corresponds to the fold line 1i of the inner box 1. In contact therewith, the opening of the storage space is covered. Therefore, although the lid 5 is formed of cardboard, the stored articles are entirely covered with thick cardboard, so that the articles can be reliably protected during transportation and the like. When displaying articles, as shown in FIG.
Is placed on the inner box 1 from the back side of the article with the second opposing side walls 54, 55 expanded. At this time, since the surfaces 15 on both sides of the opening of the storage space in the middle box 1 face diagonally forward, the product names can be clearly displayed by printing a product name, a decorative pattern, or the like on this surface 15. The appearance at the time of display can be improved. If the opening surface of the inner box 1 is simply set at an angle, the width of the inner box 1 becomes large at the time of display, so that the lid 5 can be covered only from the rear to the middle. Since the one side 54, 55 is configured to be openable, articles can be displayed without impairing the appearance of the box. In the present embodiment, the side wall of the lid 5 is configured to be widened on only one side. However, if the side wall is configured to be widened on both sides, the box can be formed in a symmetrical shape, and the appearance during display can be further improved.

Next, a packaging box according to a second embodiment shown in FIGS. 10 to 13 will be described. In this example,
FIG. 10 is a plan view of the inner box 1 described in the first embodiment.
As shown in FIG. 2, the two boxes are connected by a substantially square cardboard 7 adhered to the back side as a connecting member of each of the inner boxes 1. Then, as shown in FIG. 10, the opening surface of the inner box 1 is oriented at a substantially right angle and facing inward.
(A second position) and a position (a first position) where the opening surfaces thereof are aligned on the same plane.

The lid 8 of the packaging box is configured such that the second opposing side wall can be expanded on both the left and right sides. First, a reinforcing member attached to the inside of the lid 8 will be described with reference to FIG. 12 showing a blank 9 made of cardboard. This reinforcing member divides the blank 9 into fold lines 9a.
And fold the pieces 93 and 94 with 9b and 9c.
The wall composed of the folds 91 and 92 protrudes from the center of the substantially square surface (substantially equal to the size of the lid) constituted by the folds 93 and 94 by being set up at a right angle to the 1,92. It is formed as one.

The lid blank 8 shown in FIG. 11 is formed such that the folded pieces 83 correspond to the size of two inner boxes 1 arranged. Also, since it is symmetric with respect to the center lines 8a and 8b, the figure shows only a quarter of the shape. First, after the reinforcing member 9 formed as described above is fitted to the back surface of the fold 83 of the lid, the blank 8 is bent along the fold line 8c, and the reinforcing member 9 is interposed between the fold 83 and the ear 81a. The folded pieces 81 and 82 are overlapped with each other so as to sandwich the peripheral edge of. Then, the fold 82 is bent relative to 83 by the fold lines 8d, 8h, 8l, and the fold lines 8e, 8f,
8g and 8i, the folded piece 87 is bent with respect to the folded piece 83 while folding the folded pieces 84, 85 and 86 inward. Further, the fold 88 is bent inward at the fold line 8k to cover the folds 84, 85, 86, and the ear 88a is bent at the fold line 8m to mesh with the ear 81a. At this time, the folding line 8j is also provided with a folding habit in the same direction as 8i. In this lid, the fold lines 8f and 8h overlap when bent at 8i, but when bent at 8j, the folds 81 and 82 are spread without overlapping as shown in FIG.

According to the configuration of the second embodiment described above,
At the time of transportation, the folded pieces 91 and 92 of the reinforcing member 9 protruding from the back surface of the lid 8 divide the storage space for the articles into two, so that it is possible to prevent the articles from colliding with each other and being damaged.
By placing the inner box 1, 1 in the lid 8 with the side walls 81, 82 of the inner box being widened, the articles can be displayed while displaying the article names and decorative patterns on both sides of the opening surface of the inner box 1. Can be. Also in this configuration, the side walls 81,
Since the structure is such that the box 82 can be opened, the appearance of the box is not impaired at the time of display.
