【０００４】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかし、従来の技術では、緩衝材が、化粧パネルの側面に配置されているだけで、この緩衝材と化粧パネルの表面等との間には接触がほとんどなく、その表面等の保護が不十分になる恐れがあった。
【０００５】
そこで、本発明の目的は、上述した従来の技術が有する課題を解消し、化粧パネルの側面に配置された緩衝材によって、被梱包体の表面等を十分に保護できる梱包装置を提供することにある。
【０００６】
【課題を解決するための手段】
請求項１記載の発明は、天井埋込型空気調和機の化粧パネルの側面に配置される一対の段ボール製の緩衝材と、この緩衝材と一緒に化粧パネルを梱包する段ボール製の外装材とを備えた梱包装置において、前記一対の緩衝材を、一枚の段ボール紙を折り畳んで、化粧パネルの一側面３Ａ及びこれに隣接した両側面３Ｂ，Ｃを一体に囲えるように略コ字状に形成すると共に、前記一対の緩衝材で化粧パネルの全周囲をほぼ隙間なく囲い、化粧パネルの一側面３Ａ及びこれに隣接した両側面３Ｂ，Ｃに対向する緩衝材には、隅部を除いたすべてに、段ボール紙の段ボール目が延出方向に延びて、化粧パネルの表面側に延出する中空の延出部と、化粧パネルの裏面側に突出する中空の突出部と、この突出部及び延出部の間に形成されて化粧パネルのつば部を挟み込む溝部とを形成し、前記外装材は、一枚の段ボール紙を折り曲げて形成し、化粧パネルの表面全域を覆う本体と、この本体の両側から延び、化粧パネルの裏面の一部を覆う蓋体とを備え、該蓋体は前記両側面３Ｂ，Ｃに対向する緩衝材を覆って折り畳み、該蓋体の上から前記一側面３Ａに対向する緩衝材を一緒にバンド掛けして梱包することを特徴とする。
【０００７】
請求項２記載の発明は、前記延出部が化粧パネルの表面形状に沿って延出方向に先細り状に形成されていることを特徴とする。
【０００９】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、本発明の一実施形態について図面を参照して説明する。
【００１０】
図１及び図２において、１は梱包装置を示す。この梱包装置１は段ボール製であり、化粧パネル３を梱包する。この化粧パネル３は、図示は省略したが、天井埋込型空気調和機の化粧パネルである。天井埋込型空気調和機には、例えば１方向吹出しタイプ、２方向吹出しタイプ、或いは４方向吹出しタイプ等があり、これらは本体を天井裏に吊り下げて、天井板の開口から吸込口、吹出口等を露出させ、これらを化粧パネル３で覆って構成される。
【００１１】
この梱包装置１は、化粧パネル３の側面に配置される段ボール製の一対の緩衝材５と、この緩衝材５と一緒に化粧パネル３を覆う同じく段ボール製の外装材７とを備えて構成される。この外装材７は、一枚の段ボール紙を折り曲げて形成され、化粧パネル３の表面全域を覆う本体７Ａと、この本体７Ａの両側から延び、化粧パネル３の裏面に設けられた発泡スチロール製のドレンパン９の一部までを覆う蓋体７Ｂとを備える。
【００１２】
一対の緩衝材５は、化粧パネル３の一側面３Ａ及びこれに隣接した両側面３Ｂ，Ｃを一体に囲えるように略コ字状に形成される。化粧パネル３の一側面３Ａ及びこれに隣接した両側面３Ｂ，Ｃに対向する緩衝材５の一部には、図３からも明らかなように、化粧パネル３の表面３Ｄ側に延出する中空くさび状の延出部５Ａと、化粧パネル３の裏面３Ｅ側に突出する中空角筒状の突出部５Ｂと、この突出部５Ｂ及び延出部５Ａの間に形成されて、化粧パネル３の外周に設けられたつば部３Ｆを挟み込む溝部５Ｃとが形成される。
【００１３】
梱包時には、図１を参照し、化粧パネル３の側面両側に一対の緩衝材５を配置し、一対の緩衝材５の溝部５Ｃにそれぞれ化粧パネル３のつば部３Ｆを位置合わせして、この緩衝材５を化粧パネル３の側面側に押し込む。そうすると、緩衝材５の溝部５Ｃに、化粧パネル３のつば部３Ｆが挟み込まれると共に、中空の延出部５Ａが、化粧パネル３の表面３Ｄ側に延出し、中空の突出部５Ｂが、化粧パネル３の裏面３Ｅ側に突出する。この状態で、この緩衝材５と一緒に化粧パネル３を外装材７で梱包する。蓋体７Ｂを折り畳み、図４に示すように、この蓋体７Ｂの上からバンド８掛けする。
【００１４】
この緩衝材５は、化粧パネル３の一側面３Ａ及びこれに隣接した両側面３Ｂ，Ｃを一体に囲えるように略コ字状に形成されているため、緩衝材５としては、２つだけ準備すればよく、部品点数が減少し、しかも、緩衝材５を化粧パネル３の側面側に押し込むだけでよいため、従来のものに比べて、化粧パネル３の梱包作業性を向上させることができる。
【００１５】
図５は、梱包後の化粧パネル３を示す。中空の延出部５Ａは、化粧パネル３の表面３Ｄの形状に沿って延出方向に先細り状に形成されている。本実施形態では、中空の延出部５Ａが、化粧パネル３の表面３Ｄ側に延出するため、緩衝材５と化粧パネル３の表面３Ｄとの間の接触面積が増大し、その表面３Ｄの保護が十分に図られる。この延出部５Ａ並びに突出部５Ｂは中空であり、延出部５Ａ並びに突出部５Ｂの内側にはそれぞれ空気層が形成されるため、クッション効果が高められる。図１に示すように、化粧パネル３の４つの隅部３Ｇを除き、各隅部３Ｇの両側には、中空の延出部５Ａと中空の突出部５Ｂとつば部３Ｆを挟み込む溝部５Ｃとの組み合わせがそれぞれ形成されるため、この化粧パネル３は、緩衝材５によって十分に保護される。
【００１６】
この緩衝材５は、一枚の段ボール紙を折り畳んで形成されている。図６〜図８は、折り畳み手順を示す。この段ボール紙１００の段ボール目は、矢印Ｘ方向に延びている。この段ボール紙１００は、中空の延出部５Ａを形成する予定部１０１と、中空の突出部５Ｂを形成する予定部１０２とを含み、図６Ａ，６Ｂ，６Ｃに示す順に折り畳んだ後、予定部１０１の爪部１０１Ａをスリット１０１Ｂに嵌め込んで、図６Ｄに示すように、両側の中空の延出部５Ａを形成する。ついで、サイド１０３の下辺１０３Ａを、センター１０４の下辺１０４Ａの上に重ねるようにして、図６Ｅ及び図７Ａ，７Ｂに示す順に折り畳んだ後、センターの予定部１０１の爪部１０１Ａをスリット１０１Ｂに嵌め込んで、図７Ｃに示すように、センターの中空の延出部５Ａを形成する。その後、図７Ｄ，７Ｅ、及び図８Ａ〜８Ｅに示す順に、予定部１０２を折り畳んで、中空の突出部５Ｂを形成し、これによって緩衝材５が完成する。
【００１７】
この緩衝材５では、３ヶ所すべての延出部５Ａで、その延出方向に段ボール紙１００の段ボール目が延びる。
【００１８】
この実施形態では、ステープル等を用いることなく、緩衝材５を組み立てることができる。また、段ボール紙１００の段ボール目が矢印Ｘ方向に延びるため、これに直交する方向に延びる場合と比べると、両側の延出部５Ａ、並びにセンターの延出部５Ａの強度が増す。
【００１９】
以上、一実施形態に基づいて本発明を説明したが、本発明は、これに限定されるものではなく、種々変更が可能である。
【００２０】
【発明の効果】
本発明では、化粧パネルの側面に配置された緩衝材によって、化粧パネルの表面等を十分に保護できる。
