In this case, the shape of the cutout line 17 may be an appropriate shape such that the gap portion and the unbroken portion are at equal intervals (perforations), or the gap portions are long and the unbroken portions are short, and are unequally spaced. . Also, the location where the cut line 17 is provided needs to be at least on the left, right, front and back of the top gusset 10a, but may be provided on the bottom gusset 10b as needed.
[0026]
Next, the operation will be described.
[0027]
First, the pack sheet 1 shown in FIG. 2 is turned upside down, and three beer cans are arranged in parallel on the upper part of the top panel 2 with the bottoms of six beers facing upward.
[0028]
Then, the side panels 3 and 4 are folded inward with the fold lines 2a and 2b as boundaries to cover the side portions of the beer cans, and the bottom panels 5 and 6 are folded along the fold lines 3a and 4a so as to cover the bottom of the beer cans. Is bent inward with the boundary as a boundary line, and the second male locking portion 8b provided on the vertical side 1a of the bottom panel 6 is connected to the female side provided on the vertical side 1a of the bottom panel 5 from the head c. The second locking portion 7b is engaged with the second locking portion 7b through the hole of the first locking portion 7a and is prevented from falling off at the neck portion d of the first locking portion 8a. By being engaged with one side a of the first locking portion 7a on the side that forms a horizontally long rectangular hole, the pack sheet 1 is formed in an endless state, and becomes a can-pack with a beer can banded.
[0029]
At this time, when each folded piece 9 is folded inward, the top gusset 10a is formed at the corner between the top panel 2 and the side panels 3 and 4 by the mountain fold line 12a and the valley fold line 12b, and the side panels 3 and 4 and the bottom panel are formed. Bottom gussets 10b are formed at the corners of 5 and 6, respectively, thereby preventing the beer can 21 packaged in the pack sheet 1 from falling off.
[0030]
At this time, a state where the top gusset 10a is provided with a cutout line 17 substantially parallel to the mountain fold line 12a, which is a portion connected to the top panel 2 , can be visually observed as shown in FIG. Therefore, when the top gusset 10a is cut by putting a finger on the perforated line 17, the retaining of a beer can or the like is released, so that it is possible to take out one of the beer cans 21 as containers from the back sheet 1. Become. After taking out one, the remaining five pieces are taken out continuously, so that the inside of the pack sheet 1 can be emptied.
[0031]
FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a carton case 20 in which the pack sheet 1 in a can as shown in FIG. 1 is provided. In FIG. 3, four pack sheets 1 are arranged in series and in parallel as shown in FIG. When storing four pieces, the upper and lower flaps 20a and 20b on the short side are opened and pushed into the state shown in FIG. 4, then the flaps 20a and 20b are closed and stored. finish.
[0032]
When the flaps 20a and 20b are opened as shown in FIG. 4 when the pack sheet 1 is pulled out from the carton case 20 stored in this manner, the top gusset 10a of the pack sheet 1 is always located on the near side. Since it is packaged, the beer can 21 can be continuously taken out as described above by putting a finger on the cutout line 17 (see FIG. 1) provided on the top gusset 10a and cutting the top gusset 10a. Therefore, if the top gusset 10a is broken and the retaining is released, the beer can 21 is directly taken out, so that the take-out work can be performed easily and efficiently as compared with the case where the pack sheet 1 which is difficult to be pulled out from the carton case 20 is pulled out. In the embodiment of the present invention, the case of packaging beer cans has been described.However, the present invention is not limited to packaging of beer cans. The present invention can also be implemented by using a pack sheet having a size suitable for this.
