Description

  The present invention relates to a novel container for storing gifts and souvenirs and a method for manufacturing the same.

In a container for storing a product (a product that is not a gift) for its own use, portability, economy, ease of assembly, recyclability, etc. are emphasized. On the other hand, in a container for storing gifts and souvenirs, the atmosphere, elegance, performance, impact and the like created by the container itself tend to be emphasized as well as the articles to be stored. Containers satisfying such requirements include containers made of wooden materials such as paulownia, metal-plated, and traditional lacquered materials.

  However, the conventional container using the high-grade material has a disadvantage that the manufacturing cost is remarkably increased and the design cannot be easily changed according to the type of goods to be accommodated and the taste of the customer.

  An object of this invention is to provide the novel container suitable for accommodation of a gift and a souvenir, and its manufacturing method, suppressing manufacturing cost.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a container suitable for housing gifts and souvenirs and capable of relatively easily responding to minor changes and custom-made (including semi-custom-made) and a method for manufacturing the same. .

  The container which concerns on the 1st aspect of this invention is provided with the lamination | stacking main-body part comprised by laminating | stacking a sheet | seat on multiple sheets. And while forming the solid space which spreads in the depth direction in the said lamination | stacking main-body part, it is bound and employ | adopts the structure which accommodates articles | goods in the said space.

  Preferably, the laminated main body portion is formed of a paper sheet, and at least a part of the three-dimensional space includes a three-dimensional section divided into a plurality in the horizontal direction (in the plane of the sheet) as well as in the depth direction. Create a shape. Furthermore, by drawing (printing) characters such as a story and / or a pattern on at least a part of the sheet, it is possible to impart a story (story) to the container, thereby improving the value of the container. It becomes possible.

  In the present invention, the “sheet” is not limited to paper, and may be vinyl, non-woven fabric, woven fabric, or the like. As “paper”, a special material such as Japanese paper can be used in addition to a general 100% pulp material. “Multi-layer stack” is not particularly limited, and indicates a range (number of stacks) in which a book appearance (depth as a container) can be obtained. “Bookbinding” means that, for example, when a quadrangular sheet is used, one side of the stacked sheets is bonded and fixed. Thus, by gradually turning the laminated sheets one by one or more, it is possible to observe the gradually changing internal design of the container and the contained articles.

  The “three-dimensional space” looks like being cut out in the stacking (depth) direction of the stacked sheets, and a form as if cut out with a sword can be obtained. The shape of the three-dimensional space can be changed as appropriate according to the customer's request. For example, it feels like looking inside the house through the window from outside the house, or looking like a small bird in the bird cage. can do. The article accommodated in the space is assumed to be accommodated in a part of the space, but can be accommodated in such a manner as to fill the entire space. In addition, as a form of “accommodation”, for example, a small notch (slit) is put in a part of a sheet stacked relatively lower, and a ring part of a ring is inserted into the notch, so that a gem part is It can take a form that is exposed in the space.

  As the articles contained in the container of the present invention, gifts and souvenirs are suitable, and examples include rings, brooches, necklaces, watches, bracelets, earrings, earrings, pendant heads, and commemorative badges. In particular, it is suitable for giving or storing an engagement ring or a wedding ring. At this time, if, for example, soft felt paper or the like is inserted into a part of the laminated sheets, a cut is made in the felt part, and the ring or the like is accommodated therein, the ring is not damaged. As another use of the container according to the present invention, for example, it can be used as a container for storing a medal or a memorial badge given when a certain award is won.

  By drawing poetry and / or a pattern (illustration) on a part of the laminated sheet having the main shape, a story (story) can be imparted to the container. When used as a container for storing an engagement ring, a wedding ring or the like, a story from the encounter of the bride and groom to marriage or engagement can be expressed across a plurality of sheets. Thereby, it becomes the world's only container for the gift giver and the gift recipient, and the ring that is accommodated can be dramatically produced.

  In this invention, the area | region divided into plurality in the surface of a sheet | seat can be formed in at least one part of the said three-dimensional space. Here, for example, when a Western-style window is used as a motif, the “region divided into a plurality of regions” corresponds to a region (glass portion) partitioned by the window frame of the window. “In-plane of sheet” is an expression for a space formed in the stacking direction (depth direction), and can also be referred to as the horizontal direction when the container is placed horizontally.

  The manufacturing method according to the second aspect of the present invention includes a laminated main body configured by stacking and stacking a plurality of paper sheets, forming a three-dimensional space extending in the depth direction in the laminated main body, A method for manufacturing a container for storing an article in the space, comprising preparing a plurality of uncut paper sheets; preparing a plurality of different punches for punching the raw paper; Punching out one sheet or a plurality of sheets; preparing a plurality of sheet units formed by stacking a plurality of the punched paper sheets having the same cutout shape; and laminating the plurality of sheet units in a predetermined order, A three-dimensional space is formed;

Thus, since the method of laminating | stacking the sheet | seat which has a different cutout shape is employ | adopted, it can respond easily to what is called a custom-made by replacing the part. For example, a page in which stories such as personal history and encounters are inserted is inserted into a part of a large number of laminated sheets, and only those pages can be replaced. In this case, if the page to be replaced has a sheet configuration without clipping, the change is further facilitated. Further, when the size of an article to be accommodated is slightly changed, it can be easily handled by replacing only the sheet portion used for holding the article. The sheet punching method can be performed using a known method and apparatus. For example, it is possible to adopt a method in which sheets are pressed one by one against a metal punching die to make a cut and cut (peel) along the cut.
