Side step surface 8, which is recessed inwardly on the inner end 7 b side of the right side wall surface 7 located on the right side when assembled as a packaging device. An upper step surface 9 a that is recessed one step downward is formed on the upper surface 9 that is connected to the stepped surface 8. Further, in the front right cushioning material 2b, a front upper step surface 9b is formed on the front side of the upper surface 9 and is recessed one step downward. Here, the recesses of the side step surface 8, the upper step surface 9 a, and the front upper step surface 9 b are formed to be equal to or greater than the thickness of the exterior material 3.
In addition, the shock absorbing material 2 which covers the corner part 1a of the front left of the decorative panel 1 is formed in the right-and-left reverse shape with respect to the right front shock absorbing material 2b.

Next, the assembly procedure of the packing apparatus will be described with reference to FIG.
First, the cushioning material 2 is fitted into the corner portions 1 a at the four corners of the decorative panel 1, and these are placed on the bottom plate 3 a of the exterior material 3. At this time, the bottom plate 3a has substantially the same size as the decorative panel 1 in which the cushioning material 2 is fitted. When the folds 5a to 5d of the exterior material 3 are folded, the front plate 3b and the left surface plate of the exterior material 3 are formed. 3c, the right side board 3d, and the rear side board 3e are comprised so that the circumference | surroundings may be covered, contacting the shock absorbing material 2. FIG.

FIG. 6A is a diagram of a state in which the cushioning material 2 is fitted into the corner portions 1a of the four corners of the decorative panel 1, and these are placed on the bottom plate 3a of the exterior material 3, and from this state, the exterior material 3 By folding the folds 5a to 5d, the state shown in FIG. 6B is obtained.
As can be seen from FIG. 6, by folding the fold 5c inward, the right face plate 3d is fitted to the side stepped surface 8 formed on the right rear shock absorber 2a and the right front shock absorber 2b. It is configured. In addition, since the recess size of the side stepped surface 8 is formed to be equal to or greater than the thickness of the exterior material 3, the right side wall surface 7 is configured to be substantially the same as the right side plate 3d or outside the right side plate 3d. Has been. By configuring in this way, the strength in the front-rear direction is maintained at the same strength as that in which the exterior material 3 is formed in a box shape, and either the cushioning material 2 or the exterior material 3 is provided on the side of the packaging device. Since it is comprised so that it may protect by, the material used for the exterior material 3 can be reduced, and a packaging apparatus can be reduced in weight. Thereby, for example, the packing device can be stacked and stored higher, and the transportation cost can be reduced.
Moreover, since it can be formed without having an opening on the outer periphery of the packing device, it is possible to prevent small animals and the like from entering the packing device, and especially when there is a concern about poor handling. However, it is possible to sufficiently protect the packing object.

Further, the right extending portion 3h is configured to be fitted to the upper step surface 9a formed on the right front cushioning material 2b by folding the fold 5g inward. In addition, since the recess size of the upper step surface 9a is formed to be equal to or greater than the thickness of the exterior material 3, the upper surfaces of the right rear shock absorber 2a and the right front shock absorber 2b are substantially the same as the right extending portion 3h. Or it is comprised so that it may become above the right extension part 3h. With such a configuration, when the packaging device of the present application is assembled, the rear extending portion 3i serving as the top plate is not only the right extending portion 3h but also the right rear cushioning material 2a and the right front cushioning material 2b. Since it becomes a structure which contacts the upper surface 9, the intensity | strength of the up-down direction of a packaging apparatus can be raised. In addition, since the upper surface of the packaging device can be formed flat, for example, the packaging device can be stably stored even when the packaging device is stacked up high, or the collapse of cargo during transportation can be reduced.
In addition, the use of a plastic foam material for the cushioning material 2 makes it more stable against changes in the temperature and humidity environment than when the weight is supported only by corrugated cardboard where strength deterioration occurs under high temperature and high humidity. A packaging device can be provided.

  Further, by folding the fold 5e inward, the front extending portion 3f is configured to be fitted to the front upper step surface 9b formed on the right rear cushioning material 2a and the right front cushioning material 2b. . In addition, since the recess size of the front upper step surface 9b is formed to be equal to or greater than the thickness of the exterior material 3, the upper surface of the right front cushioning material 2b is substantially the same as the front extension portion 3f or the front extension portion 3f. It is comprised so that it may become above. With such a configuration, when the packaging device of the present application is assembled, the rear extending portion 3i serving as the top plate comes into contact with the upper surface 9 of the right front cushioning material 2b as well as the front extending portion 3f. Therefore, the strength of the packing device in the vertical direction can be increased. In addition, since the upper surface of the packaging device can be formed flat, for example, the packaging device can be stably stored even when the packaging device is stacked up high, or the collapse of cargo during transportation can be reduced.

  Here, although the same effect is described by the upper step surface 9a and the front upper step surface 9b, the effect can be obtained even if each of them is implemented individually. However, by implementing both the upper step surface 9a and the front upper step surface 9b, the rear extending portion 3i serving as the top plate becomes completely flat and the contact area between the rear extending portion 3i and the cushioning material 2 is also increased. Since it becomes the maximum, the effect can be remarkably enhanced.

  Here, in the first embodiment, the configuration on the right side of the packaging device is described, but the left side corresponding to the configuration naturally has the same configuration as that on the right side.

  Finally, the cushioning material 2 that is substantially the same or protrudes from the opening on the side surface of the assembled exterior material 3 is tightened by being wrapped around with a band 4 made of PP (polypropylene) and fixed to each other. Thereby, even if an impact is applied to the packaging device, it can be fixed without collapsing. Furthermore, not only the exterior material 3 made of corrugated cardboard but also the cushioning material 2 made of a plastic foam material is directly clamped and fixed by the band 4, thereby causing strength deterioration under high temperature and high humidity. Compared with the case where only the corrugated cardboard is fastened and fixed, it is possible to prevent the tightening from being loosened with respect to changes in the temperature and humidity environment, and thus it is possible to provide a packing device that can protect the packing object more reliably.

  In addition, the conventional packing apparatus is not good in assemblability because each packaging material is formed in a box shape in advance and then the packaging material is assembled by assembling the packaging material and the packaging object. On the other hand, the packaging device according to the present invention can be assembled by placing the decorative panel 1 to be packaged on the sheet-like exterior material 3 as described above. It becomes possible to assemble without using a fixture.
