Description

The present invention relates to a reusable packaging material and a simple packaging box for packaging an article with an elastic film.

Conventionally, a film packaging material identifies an article, and a film is attached to a paper casing by heat fusion or adhesive using a dedicated packaging material and a rectangular parallelepiped box. Prior to this, it was fitted into a cushioning material made of a foamed polystyrene molded body, recently a paper molded body, etc., according to the type of article, and packed in a box. As simple packaging, there are many cases of packaging with a foam cushioning sheet or the like. In this case, the gap between the box and the article is further filled with another cushioning material or the like.

Patent Document 1 (Japanese Patent Publication No. 3-503955), Patent Document 2 (US Pat. No. 5,386,911), Patent Document 3 (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-45171), Patent Document 4 (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2001-27843) Film packaging materials have been proposed. However, this specifies an article to be placed and holds a single article. There are no known techniques or commercially available products with respect to packing materials that are detachable and that use a packaging material that uses a belt-like film or a string-like film or a film that has elasticity in the casing.

  Japanese National Patent Publication No. 3-503955   US Pat. No. 5,386,911   Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-45171   JP 2001-27843 A

The conventional technology described in the background art realizes high-performance protection and buffering performance by using a dedicated packing material and box suitable for a specific article, but it is one-way disposal or shipment. The current situation is that it is discarded in one round of recovery. For this reason, there are many problems in terms of cost and resource saving.

The packing material and the box are individually manufactured in units of articles having the same size and shape. Therefore, it becomes a variety of packaging materials and packaging boxes for each product type, and the inventory space, warehouse, work preparation and packaging work becomes complicated, and the range of use is limited, resulting in a large amount of waste and an environmental problem. .

When a plurality of articles are stored, the packaging box is repackaged with a larger transport box.
Since the cushioning material is packed and fixed in the gap in the box, the amount of waste discharged tends to increase at the shipping destination.

The packing materials and packaging boxes are made of high-quality materials with a design specification of reuse around 5 times.
In the current situation of being discarded after a single use, there are many environmental problems and resource saving problems.

Film packaging is certified as a resource for recycling in Europe and the United States, and the amount of waste discharged at the shipping and collection destinations is minimized.
The present invention solves the above problems.

In order to achieve the above object, the reusable packaging material and simple packaging box according to the present invention are made of an elastic film. The reusable packaging material was provided with two types of packaging members, a band-shaped film and a string-shaped film. Removable by sewing hook fasteners on both ends of the film. In addition, since the simple packaging box can be folded down small after unpacking, it can be used repeatedly while saving costs such as transportation costs such as handling with standard mail, etc., reducing the environmental load.

Arbitrary lengths, angles, and widths are appropriately formed by connecting at least two members for wrapping a belt-like film or a string-like film. As a result, the scope of the target article can be expanded and applied to various applications.

A pneumatic valve for filling, pressurizing, and depressurizing air is provided in a bag-like film of a cushioning member used in combination with a band-like film or a string-like film of a packaging member. An article placed on a bag-like film having a pneumatic cushioning performance is protected from impact and vibration during transportation, particularly from the lower surface of the container. Moreover, instead of the pneumatic valve, a cushioning material insertion port is provided, and a sponge made of a porous body that is inflated with air is accommodated in the bag-like film, so that a bag-like film having a cushioning performance can be simplified. By preventing interference between a plurality of articles stored in the packaging box, the articles are safely protected.

It consists of a container and the reusable packing material housed in the container, and the casing constituting the container is made of a film having elasticity, and when assembled, it becomes a box shape. In order to attach the above reusable packing material from the six sides (front, plane, left and right side, bottom and back) inside the box, the left and right sides are removed and a lid is added to the bottom. This is a simple packaging box with an unrolled structure.

In the simple packaging box, an insertion pocket for placing the bag-like film is provided on each of three sides (a plane, a bottom surface with a lid, and a back surface) in the box. The bag-like film inflated by air pressure using at least two surfaces is inserted into an insertion pocket, and an article is placed on the insertion pocket. Depending on the size and shape of the article, a plurality of articles can be mixed on one surface.

Wrapping the article with the band-like film of the packaging member, or holding the article with the string-like film, and sticking the hook-and-loop fasteners provided at both ends of the band-like film and the string-like film through the opening of the boxed body Then, package and fix the article.

After storing the goods, fold up the four sides of the simple packaging box, and attach the hook-and-loop fastener provided on the front and the bottom with the lid to create a box body with a barrel-less structure. It becomes a reusable simple packaging box that can be stored. Moreover, it can be used also as a transport box by packing a plurality of simple packaging boxes using a string-like film.

In the simple packaging box, articles can be stored on a flat surface, a bottom surface with a lid, and a back surface. When the opposing article in the box interferes with the shape, etc., adjust the air pressure of the bag-like film of the cushioning member, the film tension of the band-like film or string-like film of the packaging member, or a porous body A bag-like film containing the sponge is inserted between the articles to provide protective cushioning.

According to the present invention,
-Reduce production costs by standardizing and consolidating the types of boxes and packing materials.
・ Improve the productivity of packing work at the shipper and reduce shipping costs.
・ Reduced unpacking on the receiving side and reduced waste output.
・ Lightweight and small folds, so collection costs are low and collection is easy. Reuse reduces production costs for boxes and packaging materials, and improves gross profits by reducing costs.
Thus, workability can be improved, cost can be saved, and resource efficiency can be improved.

Next, the reusable packing material and the simple packaging box according to the present invention will be described in more detail based on the drawings showing the embodiments. For convenience, portions having the same function are denoted by the same reference numerals and description thereof is omitted.

FIG. 1 is a plan view of an example showing an embodiment of a packaging member 2 made of a strip-shaped film 2a. In order to increase the holding power of the article, the film material includes a urethane film having a large coefficient of friction and tensile breaking strength. In this embodiment, a film made of thermoplastic urethane elastomer (TPU) is used. A surface fastener 3a is provided on the front and back of the belt-like film surface 5 as an attachment / detachment member at one end of the belt-like film 2a, and a surface fastener 3a having a large size is attached to the opposite ends. By providing the hook and loop fasteners 3a on the front and back of one end, the packing work is simplified, the work efficiency is dramatically improved, and the size of the hook and loop fasteners 3a at the opposite ends is different, so that the contact position is It can be moved, and the article can be safely fixed by adjusting the film tension.

In order to hold the article W stably with film tension, the flexible and well-extending film made of the TPU wraps around the article W, and the shape and size of the article W are made using frictional force and stretching force. Packaged together. The tension adjusting function of the belt-like film 2a can be adjusted by changing the contact position of the hook-and-loop fastener 3a. Since the contact position can be moved steplessly, it is also suitable for packaging an article W that is relatively easily damaged by finely adjusting the tension.

FIG. 2 is a plan view of an example showing an embodiment of the packaging member 2 made of the string-like film 2b. The string-like film 2b is formed by using the above-described TPU film, cutting the band-like film thinly and long, and bundling it into a string shape in order to increase the stretching force. A string-shaped surface fastener 3b is provided at both ends of the string-shaped film 2b as a detachable member. The string-like surface fastener 3b has a male and female surface fasteners on the front and back, and is a self-contained type that is connected when wound and bonded. The tension adjustment function of the string-like film 2b changes the contact position, or makes use of the characteristics of the self-contained string-like surface fastener 3b to create a circular ring with the string-like surface fastener 3b provided at one end of the film. The string-like surface fastener 3b at the opposite end is passed through the circular ring and adjusted by changing the contact position.
Since it is suitable for packing in the case of packing a plurality of boxes, there is no need for a separate shipping box used during the distribution process or during transportation. Moreover, since the simple packaging box 9 has a barrel-less structure, the article can be confirmed even in a packed state. Since documents such as tags and invoices attached to the box can be sandwiched and attached without using glue, the work of unloading and unpacking articles during the distribution process is reduced.

FIG. 3 is a plan view showing an embodiment in which the packaging members 2 are connected in the same type.
An example in which two strip films 2a are connected is shown.
(For the sake of explanation, one is a parent film and the other is a child film)
The hook-and-loop fastener 3a provided on the child film 8 is connected to the hook-and-loop fastener 3a provided at the end portion of the parent film 7 by being brought into close contact therewith. The two strip films 2a connected are connected in a closed loop by closely contacting the surface fastener 3a provided at the end of the child film 8 with the surface fastener 3a provided on the parent film 7. . By changing the contact position, an angle can be given according to the shape of the article w.

By connecting the belt-like film 2a of the packaging member 2, the length and the angle can be appropriately arranged, and the width is also formed by arranging them in parallel. Thereby, the target article w to be packaged is arbitrary. For example, it is also suitable for packing various furniture and fixtures in the moving transportation industry, and for packing tableware and relatively easily damaged items.

FIG. 4 is a plan view showing an embodiment in which the packaging members 2 are connected in different types.
The example which connected two string-like films 2b and the strip | belt-shaped film 2a is shown in figure.
(For the sake of explanation, one is a parent film and the other is a child film)
The string-like surface fastener 3b provided on the child film 8 is connected to the string-like surface fastener 3b provided on the end portion of the parent film 7 by being brought into close contact therewith. The connection of the two connected string-like films 2b is made by closely contacting the string-like surface fastener 3b provided at the end of the child film 8 with the string-like surface fastener 3b provided on the parent film 7. Connected in a closed loop.
Further, the band-shaped film 2a is connected by closely contacting the surface fastener 3a of the band-shaped film 2a with the male-female surface fastener which is the characteristic of the self-contained string-shaped surface fastener 3b described in the paragraph number (0022). Then, it is connected to the string-like film. This figure is an example in which the string-like film 2b is crossed and connected at right angles. The string-like film 2b holds the article, and the band-like film 2a holds the article stably. For example, it is suitable for packing precision parts with complicated shapes.

FIG. 5 is a development view showing an embodiment of the simple packing box 9.
The simple packaging box 9 is made of a rectangular film having elasticity, and the strip-like film 2a and the string-like film 2b are formed from the six sides (front face 9a, plane 9b, left and right side faces, lower face, and rear face 9d) of the rectangular parallelepiped box. In order to arrange it, it is a body removal structure consisting of a lid-attached lower surface 9c in which left and right side surfaces are deleted and a lid side 9e is added to the lower surface. An insertion pocket 9f is sewn and provided on three sides (the plane 9b, the back surface 9d, and the bottom surface 9c with the lid) out of the four sides (the front surface 9a, the plane 9b, the back surface 9d, and the bottom surface 9c with the lid). The buffer member 4 is inserted and arranged. Male and female hook-and-loop fasteners 3a are sewn and provided on the front and back of the film surface as detachable members on the front surface 9a and the lid side 9e at both ends of the film.

Since the simple packaging box 9 is flat when stored or unpacked, it can save space in a warehouse or storage location. The assembling method at the time of use is formed in a box body having a body-removal structure by folding each side and bringing the surface fastener 3a provided on the front side 9a and the side 9e of the lid into close contact.

FIG. 6 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of the buffering member 4 made of the bag-like film 4b. The bag-like film 4b is made of an elastic film, is provided with a pneumatic valve 4c that fills air, pressurizes and depressurizes, and is formed in a sealed bag shape having cushioning performance.
Alternatively, instead of the air pressure valve 4c, a bag-like film 4b having a cushioning performance is formed by storing a sponge made of a porous body that is inflated with air in a bag-like film 4b having a buffer material insertion port. The

FIG. 7 is a diagram for explaining the operation of the packaging member 2 and the buffering member 4 made of the belt-like film 2a. The periphery of the article W placed on the plate-like frame 4a made of paper, wood, synthetic resin, or the bag-like film 4b described in the paragraph number (0028) is covered with a flexible and non-slip belt-like film 2a. The article W is safely fixed by the expansion and contraction force and frictional force of the film by closely contacting the surface fasteners 3a of the detachable members attached to both ends of the belt-like film 2a. When the tension is insufficient, the article W is more securely fixed and protected by adjusting the tension of the belt-like film 2a using the tension adjusting function described in the paragraph number (0021).
This packing method is an economical packing that can be used for a box manufactured by a conventional method.

FIG. 8 is a diagram for explaining the operation in which a reusable packing material and a simple packaging box are combined. A bag-like film 4b having a cushioning performance filled with air using a pneumatic valve 4c is inserted and arranged in the insertion pocket 9f of the flat surface 9b and the bottom surface 9c with the lid, and the article w is placed on the insertion pocket 9f. Placed on. Cover the article w with the well-extended band-shaped film surface 5 of the band-shaped film 2a of the packaging member, pass through the body opening 9g on the left and right side surfaces of the box, and wrap the band-shaped film 2a around the outer periphery of the simple packaging box 9 The article w is fixed by closely packing the surface fasteners 3a provided at both ends of the belt-like film 2a.

As a result, the article w is fixed with the belt-like film 2a, and further sandwiched between the flat film 9b and the bag-like film 4b attached to the insertion pocket 9f of the lid-attached lower surface 9c. The article w is securely held and protected from impacts and vibrations from external factors.

By using the belt-like film 2a, the article w can be stored on three sides (the flat surface 9b, the bottom surface 9c with a lid, and the back surface 9d) of the simple packaging box 9. After storage, each side of the simple packaging box 9 is folded up, and the lid side 9e and the hook-and-loop fastener 3a provided on the front surface 9a are brought into close contact with each other, thereby forming a box body with a body-removal structure. The boxed structure box can save the raw material for the left and right side surfaces as compared to a rectangular parallelepiped box. Moreover, the strength and buffering force of the simple packaging box 9 can be further enhanced by wrapping the string-like film 2b on the belt-like film 2a from the shape, size and weight of the article w.

In the unpacking operation, when the belt-like film 2a is removed from the simple packaging box 9, it is opened and becomes flat.
The bag-like film 4b also becomes planar by releasing air from the pneumatic valve 4c.
When the bag-like film containing the porous sponge is pressed from above the bag and decompressed, it is compressed and thinned. Or if it takes out from the insertion opening 4d for buffer materials, it will become like a cotton swab and it will become easy to handle. Reusable packing materials and simple packaging boxes can be folded small after unpacking, so they can contribute to environmental problems by collecting them at a low cost such as handling regular mail, and by reusing and reusing them. As an application, even if you use TA-Q-BIN or dedicated collection flights, small folded packing materials and simple packaging boxes are flat, lightweight, thin, and durable, so you can store and collect them together in one packaging box, It is possible to reduce waste collection at the shipping destination, improve logistics efficiency, save collection costs, and build a system that can be reused.

FIG. 9 is a layout diagram for explaining an operation in which the width of the simple packaging box 9 is variably configured. The opposite opening portions 9g of the two simple packaging boxes 9 are arranged symmetrically, and both ends of the bag-like film 4b are respectively inserted into the insertion pockets 9f provided on the bottom surface 9c with the lid of the simple packaging box 9. Insert and place. Thereby, it expands to the size which connected two boxes in series. According to the length of the article to be placed, the bag-like film 4b mounted in the insertion pocket 9f is moved back and forth to make fine adjustments, thereby forming a box size suitable for the article. This example matches the height (depth) and depth (depth) of the simple packaging box size, and is suitable for an article having a long width.

FIG. 10 is a diagram for explaining the operation showing the connection form of the bag-like film 4b stored in the simple packaging box 9. As shown in FIG. Around the contact point connecting the two bag-like films 4b, the band-like film 2a of the packaging member is wound, and the hook-and-loop fasteners 3a provided at both ends of the band-like film 2a are brought into close contact with each other. Thereby, it is unnecessary to newly manufacture the bag-like film 4b for each article stored in the simple packaging box, and the reuse efficiency of the packing material can be improved and integrated.

FIG. 11 is an arrangement diagram for explaining the operation in which the depth size of the simple packaging box 9 is variably formed. The front surface 9a and the lid side 9e facing each other of the two simple packaging boxes 9 are opened and arranged symmetrically, and the surface fasteners provided on the front surface 9a and the lid side 9e are brought into close contact with each other. A box-like film is expanded by winding a belt-like film thereon and closely contacting surface fasteners 3a provided at both ends of the belt-like film 2a. This example conforms to the height (width) and width (width) of the simple packaging box size, and is suitable for articles having a wide depth.
In addition, when three simple packaging boxes are connected in another embodiment, the height (high), width (width), and depth (depth) are expanded by making the plane 9b vertical without being folded up. A box is formed.

The present invention is not limited to the embodiment described above. For example, the material of the buffer member 4 constituting the packing material is arbitrary.
