  However, the conventional pocket-type card insert as shown in Patent Document 1 makes it difficult to read a bar code or the like when the card c is bent or its rigidity is weak, and as shown in FIG. There was a risk that the upper edge would face the opening e, and the card c would jump out of the opening e due to wind or vibration.

  In addition, the container with the card inserted may be inserted into an automatic washing machine, and the container may be cleaned by being sprayed with cleaning water ejected from a nozzle. When the card c is subjected to such a force as indicated by an arrow in FIG. 10 due to external factors such as water pressure or wind pressure of the washing water during the washing, the card c is deformed and kept in a bowed state. Therefore, both side edges of the card c may be detached from the support members d1 and d2 and fall off.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems, and the card holder according to claim 1 is gently raised from the both side edges toward the center of the frame-shaped main body. A raised surface is formed, a notch is formed in the center of the upper side of the main body, the raised surface is narrowed to extend to the notch, and a frame-like body is formed with an appropriate gap on the front surface of the main body. Providing a pocket-shaped card accommodating portion, and the side edges of the card inserted into the accommodating portion are regulated by the both side edges of the frame-like body, whereby the card comes into surface contact with the raised surface. It is characterized by being housed in a bowed front.
Further, the card holder according to claim 2 is formed with a raised surface that gently rises forward from both side edge portions toward the central portion of the frame-shaped main body, and is cut out at the central portion of the upper side of the main body. Forming a pocket-shaped card housing portion by narrowing the width of the raised surface to the notch and providing a frame-like body with an appropriate gap on the front surface of the main body. Protrusions that regulate the positions of both side edges of the card inserted into the part are formed on both side edges of the frame-like body, and the card is brought into surface contact with the raised surface by being regulated by the protrusions. It is characterized by being housed in a bowed shape.

In the card insertion according to the first or second aspect, it is possible to eliminate the possibility of the card dropping off due to various external factors, and to facilitate insertion and removal of the card.

  Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. 1 is a perspective view of the card holder according to the present invention when not assembled (molded), FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the rear surface thereof, FIG. 3 is a perspective view during assembly, FIG. 4 is a perspective view after assembly, and FIG. Is a perspective view of the back surface thereof, FIG. 6 is a longitudinal sectional view thereof, and FIG. 7 is a horizontal sectional view thereof. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the card holder is formed by integrally molding a frame-like body 3 via a thin bent line 2 on the lower side of the main body 1 by injection molding of an elastic plastic such as polypropylene. It is a thing.

  The main body 1 has mounting holes 5 formed at four corners of a substantially rectangular plate-like body 4 having a thickness of about 2 mm, a notch 6 is formed at the center of the upper side of the plate-like body 4, and a transparent portion is formed at the center of the substantially lower half. A hole 7 is formed, and a raised surface 9 following the inclined surface 8 is formed so as to gently protrude forward from both side edge portions to the center portion of the plate-like body 4. The slope 8 and the raised surface 9 extend to the upper notch 6 with the width h1 narrowed. Further, the main body 1 is formed in a frame shape by integrally forming a standing wall 10a on the upper side of the main body 1, a standing wall 10b on both sides, and a standing wall 10c on the lower side. The standing wall 10 a is formed in a discontinuous manner in the middle by the notch 6, and the standing wall 10 c is also formed in the discontinuous shape by the through hole 7. Further, a cut 11 is formed in both standing walls 10b, and a claw-like first engaging portion 12 protruding outward is formed during the cut. Moreover, the 2nd engaging part 13 formed in the concave shape as shown in FIG. 2 is formed in the back side of the raised surface 9.

  On the other hand, the frame-like body 3 is a substantially square plate having a transparent window 30 and a thickness of about 2 mm. The frame-like body 3 is formed so that the mounting hole 5 is not hidden during assembly. It is formed so as to fit between the walls 10b, 10b. A guide piece 31 that is inclined forward (backward in FIG. 1) is integrally formed on the upper side (lower side in FIG. 1) of the frame 3. Reference numeral 32 denotes an upright wall formed on the lower side (upper edge in FIG. 1) of the frame-like body 3 so as to be continuous with the upright wall 10c during assembly. Reference numeral 33 denotes a protrusion formed on the inner surface of both side edges of the frame 3. In addition, ear pieces 34 projecting outward are formed on both side edges, and a first engagement portion 35 having a long hole shape with which the engagement portion 12 can be engaged is formed on the ear piece. In addition, the surface of the ear piece 34 is provided with a concavo-convex 37 that prevents a finger from slipping during assembly. Reference numeral 38 denotes a plate-like elastic piece formed so as to protrude from the standing wall 31 into the transparent window 30, and has a claw-like shape that can be engaged with the second engagement portion 13 at the tip of the elastic piece. A second engaging portion 39 is formed. Reference numeral 40 denotes a groove formed in a transverse shape in the elastic piece in order to increase the elasticity of the engaging portion 39. Also. Reference numeral 41 denotes a recess formed on one surface of the elastic piece 38 for stealing meat.

  For this reason, as shown in FIG. 3, the frame-like body 3 is bent forward and upward from the bending line 2, and the first engagement portion 12 is engaged with the first engagement portion 12 and elastic. The piece 38 is elastically deformed and pushed into the back side of the main body 1 through the through hole 7. At that time, the elastic piece 38 is pushed in by placing a finger on the depression 41, so that it is easy to hold down and the workability of the assembly is improved. Then, by engaging the second engagement portion 39 with the second engagement portion 13 by the elastic restoring force of the elastic piece 38, the front surface of the main body 1 is attached to the front surface of the main body 1, as shown in FIGS. The frame-like body 3 is provided with an appropriate gap to form a pocket-shaped card accommodating portion 42, and the card 44 can be inserted from the opening 43 of the accommodating portion. At this time, a raised surface 9 that protrudes forward is formed in the center of the main body 1, and the protrusions 33 are formed on both side edges of the frame-like body 3, so that the card 44 inserted into the housing portion 42. The both side edges of the card are regulated by the protrusions 33 so that the card comes into surface contact with the raised surface 9 and is received in a bowed shape in front. In addition, although the protruding amount of the protruding surface 9 and the protruding amount of the ridge 33 can be determined as appropriate, the longitudinal deviation (dimension g shown in FIG. 7) that causes the card 44 to be warped is set to 2 mm. Yes.

  As shown in FIG. 8, the card holder is fixed by penetrating a boss 51 projecting from the outer surface of the side wall of the container 50 through the mounting hole 5 and thermally melting the tip of the boss. The card 44 is transported and is subjected to vibration, wind pressure, etc., but since the card 44 is warped forward and accommodated in the accommodating portion 42, it does not buckle even if its rigidity is weak. The standing state is always maintained. For this reason, barcodes and the like can always be read smoothly without failure, and the risk of the card 44 jumping out of the opening 43 is small.

  Further, since the back surface of the card 44 is in surface contact with the raised surface 9, the card 44 is backed up by the raised surface 9 even if, for example, cleaning water sprayed from a nozzle of a washing machine is sprayed on the card 44. Since such a bowed state is maintained, there is little possibility that both side edges of the card come off from both side edges of the frame 3 and fall off.

  In addition, a notch 6 is formed at the center of the upper side of the main body 1 and the raised surface 9 extends to the notch 6 with its width h1 narrowed. Therefore, when the card 44 is inserted, There is an advantage that it is easy to grasp the upper edge of the card because it is bent forward and a finger enters the notch 6 when the card 44 is extracted. Since the guide piece 31 is inclined forward when assembled, the card 44 can be easily inserted and removed.

  In this embodiment, the protrusions 33 for restricting the positions of both side edges of the card 44 are formed on both side edges of the frame 3. However, the both edges of the card 44 are directly restricted by the inner surfaces of the both edges of the frame 3. If it does so, the protrusion 33 does not necessarily need to be formed. Thus, the present invention is not limited to the shape shown in this embodiment, and various modifications can be made. For example, the first and second engaging portions that engage the main body 1 and the frame-like body 3 can be considered as various engaging means in addition to those shown in this embodiment. Similarly, various forms of means for attaching the card holder to the container 50 are conceivable. Further, in this embodiment, the card housing portion 42 is formed by engaging the main body 1 and the frame-like body 3, but without adopting such an assembly structure, the main body 1 and the frame-like body 3. It is also possible to integrally form the above.
