2. Description of the Related Art When a relatively large and heavy object to be packaged, such as a television receiver, is packed in a cardboard box, the object to be packaged is wrapped in a cushioning material such as styrene foam. I try to put it. 4 shows an example of such a packaged state. FIG. 4A is a view of the inside of the box as viewed from above, FIG. 4B is a view of the inside of the box as viewed from the front, and FIG. Is a view of the inside of the box as viewed from the right side.
In these figures, reference numeral 1 denotes a television receiver as an article to be packaged, and the television receiver 1 is stored in a cardboard box 2. In this case, four Styrofoams 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d are arranged as cushioning materials at the upper and lower ends of the left and right side surfaces of the television receiver 1, and these four Styrofoams 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d are provided. It is located between the television receiver 1 and the cardboard box 2.

FIG. 5 shows another configuration, and FIG.
Is a view of the inside of the box as viewed from above, FIG. 5B is a view of the inside of the box as viewed from the front, and FIG. 5C is a view of the inside of the box as viewed from the right side. In the case of the example of FIG. 5, four Styrofoams 4a, 4b, 4 are provided at the upper end and lower end of the front surface and the upper end and lower end of the rear surface of the television receiver 1 as a packaged object.
c and 4d are arranged as cushioning materials, and these four styrofoams 4a, 4b, 4c and 4d are located between the television receiver 1 and the cardboard box 2. 4 and 5
In the figure, reference numeral 1a denotes a screen (video display unit) of the television receiver.

[0004] By packaging as shown in FIG. 4 or FIG. 5, the position of the television receiver 1 in the cardboard box 2 is determined, and the television receiver 1 is held well. On the other hand, the Styrofoam functions as a cushioning material, and the television receiver 1 is protected.

[0005]

By the way, the use of styrene foam as a cushioning material is preferable from the viewpoint of reducing the production cost of the packaging container and reducing environmental problems as the amount of use is small. In other words, when the amount of styrofoam used is reduced, the material cost is reduced accordingly, and the manufacturing cost is reduced. In addition, since such a packaging container is discarded after taking out the inside of the packaged object, the amount of waste is reduced by reducing the amount of styrofoam used.

However, if the amount of styrofoam is simply reduced, the styrofoam does not function as a cushioning material, and the packaging condition of the packaged object inside becomes insufficient.

Conventionally, to solve this problem, for example, a packaging container shown in FIG. 6 has been proposed (Japanese Utility Model 3-1).
No. 1139). In this packaging container, the television receiver 1 is packaged in a cardboard box 5. The lower part of the television receiver 1 is held by styrofoam 6, and the front of the upper part of the television receiver 1 is held by styrofoam 7. . In the upper part of the cardboard box 5, a bent portion 5a to the inside and a rising portion 5b at the tip thereof are formed, and the rising end 5b presses the rear end of the styrene foam 7. With this configuration, it is not necessary for the styrofoam 7 to hold the rear portion of the television receiver 1, and the amount of styrofoam used can be reduced accordingly.

However, in the case of the structure shown in FIG. 6, the weight of the television receiver 1 needs to be supported by the bent portion 5a of the cardboard box 5, which is not preferable in terms of strength. In other words, when the cardboard box 5 containing the television receiver 1 is transported, when the rear of the box 5 (the right side in FIG. 6) is tilted down, the television receiver 1 is placed on the start-up section 5b. The weight is added, and if the strength of the bent portion 5a is not sufficient, the bent portion 5a is bent. When the cardboard box 5 is damaged as described above, the position of the television receiver 1 in the cardboard box 5 cannot be determined, and in the worst case, the television receiver 1 is damaged. In order to prevent such an accident, it is necessary to enlarge the lower styrofoam 6 so that the lower styrofoam 6 is sufficiently held, so that the usage of styrofoam cannot be reduced.

Further, in the case of such a structure, it is necessary to form the bent portion 5a and the rising portion 5b in the cardboard box 5, which complicates the structure of the cardboard box 5 and increases the structure of the cardboard box. There was an inconvenience that it took time to assemble.

An object of the present invention is to make it possible to reliably reduce the amount of a cushioning material such as styrene foam in a simple configuration of this kind of packaging container.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS One embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS.

FIG. 1 is a partially broken view showing a state of packaging in a packaging container of this embodiment. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes a television receiver as an object to be packaged. Packaged in box 10. Here, the television receiver 1 of the present example has a shape in which the rear portion (the side opposite to the side on which the video display screen 1a is arranged) is narrowed down. FIG. 2 is an exploded view of a cardboard box 10 in which the television receiver 1 is packaged. In the drawing, reference numerals 11 and 13 denote upper inner flaps.
Reference numerals 12 and 14 denote upper outer flaps. Also, 15,1
7 denotes a lower inner flap, and 16 and 18 denote lower outer flaps. Further, 19 is a joining portion. Up to this point, it has the shape of a normal corrugated cardboard box, and is assembled as a hexahedral box by being bent at the portion shown by the broken line and bonding the joining portion 19 to the end of the other surface, but in this example, Notches 11a, 13a facing one end of the upper inner flaps 11 and 13 (the one end here is an end near the side where one outer flap 14 is attached in an assembled state). And
Inner flap 1 separated by these cuts 11a and 13a
The end portions of the first and the first 13 are bent as the bent portions 11b and 13b at the portions shown by broken lines.

In the case of this embodiment, styrofoam as a cushioning material interposed between the television receiver 1 and the cardboard box 10 is arranged as shown in FIG. That is,
Styrofoams 21 and 22 are arranged so as to cover the lower left and lower right sides of the television receiver 1, and Styrofoams 23 and 24 are arranged so as to cover the upper left and right corners near the front of the television receiver 1. I do. Further, a styrofoam 25 is arranged in the center of the upper rear part of the television receiver 1. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3A, the styrofoam 25 has a bent portion 11 of the inner flaps 11, 13.
b and 13b are arranged in a space formed by facing each other. 3A is a cross-sectional view taken along the line II of FIG. 1, and is a view of the inside of the box as viewed from above. FIG. 3B is a cross-sectional view taken along the line II-II of FIG. 1 and is a view of the inside of the box as viewed from the front. Further, C in FIG. 3 corresponds to III-I in FIG.
FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line II, and is a view of the inside of the box as viewed from the right side.

Then, a hole 25a is provided in a styrofoam 25 disposed at the upper rear of the television receiver 1,
The accessory of the television receiver 1 is stored in the hole 25a. For example, a remote control device for remotely controlling the television receiver 1 is housed in the hole 25a.

According to the packaging container configured as described above,
The amount of styrofoam 21 to 25 used as a cushioning material between the television receiver 1 and the cardboard box 10 can be reduced. That is, on the upper side of the television receiver 1, the styrofoams 2 arranged at the left and right corners of the front upper portion are provided.
Only the Styrofoam 25 disposed in the center of the upper rear portion is used to support the entire upper portion of the side as in the conventional example shown in FIG. 4, or as in the conventional example shown in FIG. There is no need to support the entire front and rear tops, which reduces the use of styrofoam. In general, with the configuration as in this example, the amount of foamed styrene used in the entire packaging container can be reduced by about 20%.

In the present embodiment, the styrofoam 25 disposed in the upper rear center is disposed in a space formed by the bent portions 11b and 13b of the inner flaps 11 and 13 of the cardboard box 10 facing each other. Thus, the position of the styrofoam 25 is reliably determined. That is, for example, when the box 10 is inclined so that the rear of the television receiver 1 is lowered, the weight of the upper rear of the television receiver 1 is reduced by the weight of the cardboard box 1 contacted via the styrene foam 25.
0 and functions as a cushioning material similar to the conventional one, and even if the styrofoam 25 tries to move left and right (in a direction parallel to the side where the outer flap 14 is attached), the inner flaps 11 and 13 will not move. Bent parts 11b, 13
b and is fixed to the upper rear center. At this time, since the weight of the television receiver 1 is not added to the left and right directions, the weight of the television receiver 1 is not added to the bent portions 11b and 13b of the inner flaps 11 and 13 (the television receiver 1). The upper part of the John receiver 1 is supported by the styrofoam 23 or 24 in front of the upper part), and the bent parts 11b and 13b are made of the styrofoam 2 having a light weight.
You only need to support five. Therefore, the bent portions 11b, 1
3b does not require strength and has a simple structure in which the ends of the inner flaps 11 and 13 are bent, but good holding is performed. In addition, the assembling work of the cardboard box 10 also merely increases the bending work of the bent portions 11b and 13b, and does not complicate the assembling work.

In this embodiment, a hole 25a is provided in the styrofoam 25 disposed on the upper rear side.
In this case, accessories such as the remote control device can be stored, so that accessories and the like of the television receiver 1 can be efficiently stored, and the amount of styrene foam used can be reduced by the volume of the hole 25a. In particular, in the case of a television receiver, since the rear portion is narrowed, the volume of the styrene foam 25 disposed on the upper rear side is relatively large, and the holes 25a in the styrene foam 25 are formed.
A relatively large hole can be provided, and various accessories can be stored.

[0021] Note that as the slow衝材in above example was to use the styrofoam may be use other shaped body as a buffer material.

[0022]

According to the present invention, the upper rear portion of the object to be packaged is supported by a relatively small cushioning material which enters the space formed by the bent portions of the inner flaps facing each other. The amount of buffer material used can be reduced, and the amount of buffer material forming the packaging container can be reduced accordingly. In this case, since the weight of the packaged object is not added to the bent portion of the inner flap supporting the cushioning material at the upper rear portion, the bent portion of the inner flap does not require strength, and simply bends the end of the inner flap. Only, and the configuration and assembly of the box is simple.
