Description

The present invention relates to a support used for a package with a support in which an article is fixed to a support, and a film package with a support to which a heat-shrinkable packaging film covering the article is attached to the support.

Conventionally, a package with a support in which an article is fixed to a support is widely known. Many of these packages with a support are conventionally hung and displayed by using a hanging hole provided in the support. However, depending on the store, there is a request that the packaging body with a support be displayed independently on a product shelf or the like instead of being hung. Therefore, conventionally, a packaging body with a support that can be displayed independently has been proposed.

For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a support in which a support (article) is held on the front surface and includes a leg piece formed by bending a part of the lower portion thereof to the front side. Has been done. This leg piece extends forward so as to come into contact with the stationary surface when the package with the support is placed forward on the stationary surface. According to such a support, it is possible to display the package with the support independently. In addition, the movement of the leg piece is restricted by the frictional force generated between the leg piece and the stationary surface while the package with the support is placed on the stationary surface, so that the posture of the leg piece is constant. It is maintained in the state of. However, the leg piece is formed by bending a part of the support, and its shape and posture are maintained only by the habit when the support is bent. Therefore, when the package with the support is lifted, it becomes difficult to maintain the leg piece in a forward-facing posture. As a result, when the package with the support once lifted is displayed independently again, the leg piece must be habituated again.

Further, Patent Document 2 discloses a support for attaching an article to the front surface, which is configured by superimposing two sheet pieces. In Patent Document 2, the lower portion of the front sheet piece protrudes to the front side so as to be able to separate from the rear sheet piece, and further, the separated state is maintained on either the front side or the rear side sheet piece. A holding piece is provided. According to such a technique, even if the package with a support is lifted, the posture in which it can be displayed independently can be maintained. However, in Patent Document 2, there is a problem that the stability is slightly lacking because the structure is such that the article protrudes only to the front side of the surface on which the article is attached. Further, the above-mentioned separated state (a state in which a part of the front sheet piece protrudes forward) is maintained by bending a plurality of places of the sheet piece, and there is also a problem that the assembly is very complicated.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a support capable of more stably and independently displaying a package with a support and a film package with a support, although the structure is simple.

The support for a package with a support of the present invention is a support used for a package with a support to which an article is attached to the support, and is connected to a main body and a lower end of the main body to form the main body. It is characterized by including a leg portion that projects forward and backward from the portion to assist the independence of the support, and a posture holding mechanism that holds the posture of the main body portion with respect to the leg portion.

In a preferred embodiment, the support can be changed into a flat posture in which the legs extend on the same plane as the main body and a deployed posture in which the legs project back and forth from the main body.

In another preferred embodiment, the support has a structure in which one sheet material is folded in half along the first crease line, and the two folded sheet portions are at least on the crease side. It has a bag-shaped binding structure in which the two sheet portions are connected to each other through a crease, and the support folds a bag-shaped leg portion in which the two sheet portions are connected to each other along the first crease line. As a result, the flat posture is obtained, and the folding along the first crease line is released and the fold is folded along the unfolding fold line to obtain the unfolding posture.

In another preferred embodiment, the posture holding mechanism includes a holding claw protruding from one of the main body and the leg in the deployed posture, and an insertion port into which the holding claw is inserted in the deployed posture. ,including. In this case, it is desirable that the holding claw extends without bending and is inserted into the insertion port.

In another preferred embodiment, a bonding agent is further applied to a portion of the inner surfaces of the two sheet portions constituting the leg portion, which does not face in the flat posture but faces in the deployed posture. Including the coating part. In this case, the adhesive is a pressure-sensitive adhesive that exerts an adhesive force between two bonding agent-coated surfaces facing each other and does not exhibit an adhesive force on one of the non-bonding agent-coated surfaces. Is desirable.

In another preferred embodiment, it further has a heat-shrinkable packaging film fixed to at least one surface of the body.

Another film package with a support according to the present invention includes a support, a heat-shrinkable wrapping film fixed to at least one surface of the support, and an article covered with the wrapping film. The support body is connected to the main body portion and the lower end of the main body portion, and has a leg portion that projects forward and backward from the main body portion to assist the independence of the support body, and a posture holding that holds the posture of the main body portion with respect to the leg portion. It is characterized by having a mechanism.

According to the present invention, since the legs project from the front and back of the main body and have a posture holding mechanism for holding the posture, the package with a support is more stable even though the structure is simple. Can be displayed independently.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. 1 and 2 are perspective views of a film package 10 with a support according to the first embodiment of the present invention. 1 and 2 are perspective views of the film package 10 with a support, FIG. 1 is a perspective view seen from the front side, and FIG. 2 is a perspective view seen from the rear side. In the following description, the thickness direction of the main body 22 of the support 20 is referred to as the "front-back direction", and the side to which the article 12 and the packaging film 14 are attached is referred to as the "front side" or the "front side" when viewed from the main body 22. , The opposite side is called "rear side" or "back side".

The film package 10 with a support is a package in which the article 12 is packaged via a wrapping film 14 fixed to the front surface of the self-supporting support 20. In FIG. 1, a substantially cylindrical stick-shaped article 12 is illustrated, but the shape of the article 12 is not particularly limited as long as it is a solid that maintains a predetermined shape. Further, the article 12 is not limited to a single article, and may be a plurality of articles 12.

The packaging film 14 covers the outer periphery of one or more articles 12, is made of a heat-shrinkable film, and has a substantially tubular shape according to the shape of the article 12. The material used for the packaging film 14 is not particularly limited as long as it is a film having flexibility and heat shrinkage in at least one direction (the direction around the axis when formed into a tubular shape). .. Therefore, as the packaging film 14, a conventionally known film can be used. The heat shrinkage property means a property of shrinking when heated to a predetermined temperature (for example, 70 ° C. to 100 ° C.). The material of such a film is selected from, for example, a polyester resin such as polyethylene terephthalate and polylactic acid, an olefin resin such as polypropylene, a polystyrene resin such as polystyrene, a cyclic olefin resin, and a thermoplastic resin such as a vinyl chloride resin. Examples thereof include a resin composition containing one kind or a mixture of two or more kinds as a main component.

The packaging film 14 is fixed to the main body 22 of the support 20 with an adhesive or the like in a state before heat shrinkage. When the film package 10 with a support is manufactured, the article 12 is housed inside the wrapping film 14 fixed to the support, and then the wrapping film 14 is heat-shrinked. In the present embodiment, the wrapping film 14 is fixed only to the front surface of the support 20, but the wrapping film 14 may be fixed to at least one surface of the main body 22 of the support 20. 14 may be fixed only to the back surface of the main body portion 22, or to both the front surface and the back surface, for example.

The support 20 is roughly divided into a main body 22 to which the article 12 is attached and a leg 24 connected to the lower end of the main body 22. The support 20 has a deployed posture (see FIGS. 1 and 2) in which the legs 24 extend in the front-rear direction at the lower end of the main body 22 to form a substantially T shape, and the main body 22 and the legs 24 are in the same plane. It can be changed to an extended flat posture (see FIGS. 4 and 5). The posture of the support 20 can be changed in order to enable the self-sustaining display of the film package 10 with the support without reducing the productivity and transportability.

That is, conventionally, such a film package 10 with a support is often displayed in a hanging display using a hanging hole 26 provided in the support 20. However, depending on the situation at the store and the form of the article 12, there is also a request that the film package 10 with a support be made to stand on a product shelf or the like and displayed. Such a request can be satisfied by setting the leg portion 24 in a deployed posture in which the main body portion 22 projects in the front-rear direction. However, in the unfolded posture, the bulk of the support 20 increases, which may adversely affect the productivity and transportability of the film package 10 with the support. Therefore, in the support 20 of the present embodiment, the leg portion 24 can be deformed into a flat posture extending on the same plane as the main body portion 22. Then, when producing the film package 10 with a support, that is, when the packaging film 14 is fixed to the support 20, or when the packaging film 14 is filled with the article 12, the completed film package with a support is produced. When transporting the 10 or the like, the support 20 is in a flat posture. As a result, the film package 10 with a support can be displayed independently while avoiding deterioration of productivity and increase in transportation cost.

Next, the configuration of the support 20 will be described with reference to FIGS. 3 to 7. FIG. 3 is a diagram of the sheet material 30 which is the material of the support 20. Further, FIG. 4 is a front view of the support 20 in a flat state, and FIG. 5 is a rear view of the support 20 in a flat state. FIG. 6 is a front view of the support 20 in the deployed state, and FIG. 7 is a schematic cross-sectional view taken along the line AA of FIG. In FIGS. 3 to 5, the alternate long and short dash line indicates the valley fold fold line, the two-dot chain line indicates the mountain fold fold line, and the thick solid line indicates the cut line.

The support 20 of the present embodiment is made of one sheet material 30 shown in FIG. The material of the sheet material 30 is not particularly limited as long as it has a shape-retaining property that allows the shape to be held with the article 12 attached and a softness that allows a part to be bent if necessary. Therefore, as the sheet material 30, for example, a paper material, a resin sheet, a laminated sheet thereof, or the like can be used. Generally, as the sheet material 30, thick paper made of only paper, synthetic paper obtained by coating a paper sheet with various resins or laminating a resin sheet or the like is used. If necessary, a desired design may be displayed on the surface of the sheet material 30 by printing or the like.

The support 20 is formed by folding the sheet material 30 in half at the first crease line L1 at the center in the vertical direction. That is, the support 20 has a configuration in which the first sheet portion 32f above the first crease line L1 and the second sheet portion 32b below the first crease line L1 are folded. Further, when the support 20 is folded in half, the two folded sheet portions 32f and 32b are joined to each other, leaving a portion corresponding to the leg portion 24 on the crease side (first fold line L1). It has a bonded bag binding structure. That is, in the present embodiment, the leg portion 24 has a bag shape in which two sheet portions are connected via a crease, and the main body portion 22 is in a state where the two sheet portions are joined to each other. ing.

The sheet material 30 is formed with a hanging hole 26 for hanging display and a plurality of crease lines L1 to L5 in advance. Each crease line L1 to L5 localizes the strength of the sheet material 30, such as a perforation line in which cut portions and connecting portions are alternately arranged, a half-cut line which is a groove line less than the thickness of the sheet material 30 and the like. It is a line that lowers the target. In addition to the first crease line L1 described above, the sheet material 30 is formed with crease lines L2 to L5 for unfolding, which are used when changing from a flat posture to a unfolding posture. More specifically, the sheet material 30 has the second and third crease lines L2 and L3 provided on the boundary line between the leg portion 24 and the main body portion 22, and the line which is the front end of the leg portion 24 in the unfolded state. The fourth fold line L4 provided in the above and the fifth fold line L5 provided on the line that becomes the rear end of the leg portion 24 in the unfolded state are formed. When transforming from the flat state shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 to the unfolded state shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the crease along the first crease line L1 is released (returned to the flat state), and the second, The sheet material 30 is valley-folded along the third fold lines L2 and L3, and the sheet material 30 is further folded along the fourth and fifth fold lines L4 and L5. As a result, the leg portion 24 is in a deployed state at the lower end of the main body portion 22 so as to project in the front-rear direction of the main body portion 22.

Further, the support 20 is further provided with a posture maintaining mechanism for maintaining the posture of the main body 22 with respect to the legs 24 in this deployed posture. Although various posture maintenance mechanisms can be considered, the posture maintenance mechanism of the present embodiment has a holding claw 34 extending from the main body 22 and an insertion port 36 into which the holding claw 34 is inserted. As shown in FIG. 4, the holding claw 34 is formed by a notch formed in a seat portion forming the front surface of the support 20. This notch is a substantially U-shape that extends downward from the boundary line between the main body portion 22 and the leg portion 24, that is, the second fold line L2, and then returns to the second fold line L2 again. The inner portion of this notch becomes a holding claw 34 that protrudes downward from the lower end of the main body portion 22 when the sheet material 30 is bent along the second crease line L2. In the present embodiment, two holding claws 34 are provided at intervals in the width direction.

The insertion port 36 is formed by a notch formed in a seat portion forming the back surface of the support 20. The insertion port 36 is a notch formed at a position directly below the main body 22 in the unfolded posture, specifically, at a position opposite to the third fold line L3 with the fifth fold line L5 as the center. The insertion port 36 has a width corresponding to the holding claw 34, and is provided at two intervals in the width direction like the holding claw 34 (see FIGS. 3 and 5). ).

When the support 20 is in the deployed posture, as shown in FIG. 6, a pair of holding claws 34 protruding from the lower end of the main body 22 are inserted into a pair of insertion ports 36 located directly below the main body 22. Just insert it. In this case, friction is generated between the holding claw 34 and the peripheral edge of the insertion port 36, and this friction causes the relative movement of the holding claw 34 and the insertion port 36, and thus the leg portion 24 and the main body. The relative movement with the part 26 will be regulated. As a result, the leg portion 24 maintains the unfolded posture extending in the front-rear direction of the main body portion 22.

Next, the flow of manufacturing and use of the film package 10 with a support will be described. When manufacturing the film package 10 with a support, the sheet material 30 is bent in two in advance, and the two overlapping sheet portions are joined in the main body 22 to form the support 20. deep. Then, a packaging film 14 having a shape and size corresponding to the article 12 is adhered to the surface of the support 20 with an adhesive or the like. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, it is assumed that the stick-shaped article 12 is attached in an inclined state with respect to the support 20. Therefore, the packaging film 14 has a tubular shape into which the stick-shaped article 12 can be inserted. Further, the packaging film 14 is adhered to the support 20 in a state where the axial direction thereof is inclined with respect to the support 20.

The bonding step of the packaging film 14 is performed with the support 20 in a flat posture. As a result, it is possible to prevent an increase in size and cost of the production machine. That is, this bonding process is usually automated by a production machine provided with a transport mechanism that sequentially feeds the support 20. At this time, if the support 20 is in a flat posture, a general-purpose transport mechanism for transporting the sheet-like material can be used as the transport mechanism for feeding the support 20, and the cost of the production machine can be reduced. Further, since the bulk of the support 20 can be suppressed, it is possible to prevent the production machine from becoming large in size.

Once the packaging film 14 is adhered to the support 20, the packaging film 14 subsequently wraps the article 12. Specifically, each packaging film 14 is filled with the article 12 and then heated to heat-shrink the packaging film 14. As a result, the packaging film 14 comes into close contact with the article 12, and the article 12 is attached to the support 20 via the packaging film 14. As a result, the film package 10 with a support is completed. The packaging process of the article 12 is also performed with the support 20 in a flat posture. This is to prevent an increase in size and cost of the packaging machine for packaging the article 12. The manufacturing method described here is an example, and may be changed as appropriate. For example, before the packaging film 14 is adhered to the support 20, the article 12 is housed in the packaging film 14, the packaging film 14 is heat-shrinked, and then the article 12 coated with the packaging film 14 is placed. It may be adhered to the support 20.

The completed film package 10 with a support is appropriately transported to a store or a warehouse. Even during this transportation, by keeping the support 20 in a flat posture, the bulk of the film package 10 with the support can be suppressed, and the transportation cost can be reduced. At a store or the like, the film wrapping body 10 with a support is a hanging display using the hanging holes 26, or a self-supporting display in which the film wrapping body 10 with a support is arranged independently on a product shelf or the like. When the hanging display is performed, the display space (depth) can be reduced by setting the support 20 in a flat posture.

When displaying independently, the bag-shaped leg 24 is opened to release the crease along the first crease line L1, and the valley fold along the second and third crease lines L2 and L3 and the fourth fold. , A mountain fold along the fifth fold line is performed, and the support 20 is changed to the unfolded posture. Then, the holding claw 34 protruding from the lower end of the front surface of the main body 22 is inserted into the insertion port 36 formed in the leg 24. As a result, the support 20 is maintained in a deployed posture in which the legs 24 project in the front-rear direction of the main body 22. Therefore, even if the self-displayed film package 10 with a support is lifted, the unfolded posture can be maintained.

Here, in the present embodiment, the support 20 projects not only in the front of the main body 22 but also in the rear in the deployed posture. Therefore, as compared with the conventional film package with a support in which a part of the support 20 extends only forward, the sense of stability when the main body 22 is made independent can be significantly improved. This is particularly effective when the article 12 is attached to the support 20 in an inclined state as shown in FIG. That is, if the article 12 is attached to the support 20 in an inclined state, the design can be enhanced, but it is difficult to balance the left and right sides, and the film package 10 with the support has a sense of stability when it is made to stand on its own. It may decrease. However, as in the present embodiment, by extending the legs 24 in both the front and rear directions of the main body 22, the sense of stability when the support 20 is made independent can be improved, and the degree of freedom in attaching the article 12 can be improved. ..

Further, as is clear from the above description, according to the present embodiment, the support 20 can be changed from the flat posture to the unfolded posture in one step of folding the bag-shaped legs 24 along the creases while opening them. it can. Further, in order to maintain the deployed posture, it is only necessary to execute the step of inserting the holding claw 34 projecting downward into the insertion port 36 located directly below the holding claw 34. That is, according to the present embodiment, it is possible to change from the flat posture to the deployed posture very easily.

Further, in the present embodiment, the holding claw 34 projects downward from the lower end of the main body portion 22. In other words, the holding claw 34 extends straight without being bent in the middle. In this case, the strength of the holding claw 34 can be kept high, and by extension, the posture holding performance of the support 20 can be kept high.

As is clear from FIG. 7, in the present embodiment, when the support 20 is in the deployed posture, the holding claw 34 slightly protrudes from the bottom surface of the support 20. If the protruding holding claw 34 hits the mounting surface, the self-supporting stability of the support 20 may decrease. In order to avoid such a problem, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 5, the sixth fold line L6 may be provided on the line passing through the insertion port 36 of the support 20. In this case, when the support 20 is in the unfolded posture, as shown in FIG. 8, the support 20 is folded in a valley along the sixth fold line L6, and the leg portion 24 is formed in a substantially chevron shape. As a result, the protruding portion of the holding claw 34 rises from the mounting surface, and interference between the holding claw 34 and the mounting surface can be prevented. As a result, the sense of stability when the support 20 is made independent can be improved.

Next, other embodiments will be described. In the following, only the configuration of the support 20 will be described, but these supports 20 are the supports used for the package with the support as in the first embodiment.

First, the support 20 of the second embodiment will be described. 9 is a front view of the support 20 of the second embodiment, and FIG. 10 is a rear view of the support 20. FIG. 11 is a cross-sectional view of a main part when the support 20 is in the expanded state. The support 20 has a different structure of the posture holding mechanism as compared with the first embodiment. The configuration of the support 20 of the first embodiment and the support 20 of the present embodiment are substantially the same except for the posture holding mechanism. That is, the support 20 includes a flat main body 22 and legs 24 connected to the lower ends of the main body 22. Further, the support body 20 can be changed into a flat posture in which the legs 24 extend in the same plane as the main body 22 and a deployed posture in which the legs 24 extend in the front-rear direction of the main body 22. The support 20 is formed by folding one sheet material 30 in half along the first crease line L1 and folding the two sheet portions 32f and 32b, and the two sheet portions 32f and 32b opposite to the fold. It has a traditional Chinese bookbinding structure in which the side parts are joined. The second to fifth fold lines L1 to L5 for deforming the support 20 from the flat posture to the unfolded posture are provided at substantially the same positions as those in the first embodiment.

Further, the posture holding mechanism for maintaining the deployed posture includes a holding claw 34 and an insertion port 36 into which the holding claw 34 is inserted, as in the first embodiment. However, in the present embodiment, the holding claw 34 projects upward from the leg portion 24, and the insertion port 36 is a gap between a pair of seat portions 32f and 32b facing each other so as to form the main body portion 22. More specifically, the holding claw 34 is an inner portion of a substantially U-shaped notch formed in the leg portion 24 of the seat portion 32b constituting the back surface. This notch has a substantially U-shape that is convex downward, and its upper end (start and end of the U-shape) is located directly below the main body 22 in the deployed posture. A seventh crease line L7 is formed between the start and end of this notch. In the unfolded posture, the holding claw 34 rises upward by folding the sheet material 30 in a mountain along the seventh fold line L7.

The two sheet portions 32f and 32b constituting the main body portion 22 are not the entire surface thereof, but only both ends in the width direction and the upper end portions are joined. Therefore, a gap between the pair of seat portions 32f and 32b is formed at the lower end of the main body portion 22, and this gap serves as an insertion port 36 into which the holding claw 34 is inserted.

When the support 20 is in the unfolded posture, the sheet material 30 is folded along the second to fifth fold lines L1 to L5 while opening the bag-shaped legs 24. Further, the sheet material 30 is folded in a mountain along the seventh fold line L7, and the holding claw 34 is raised upward, that is, toward the main body portion 22. The unfolded posture is maintained by inserting the raised holding claw 34 into the insertion port 36, which is a gap between the two sheet portions constituting the main body portion 22.

In this second embodiment, since the holding claw 34 is projected upward from the leg portion 24, interference between the holding claw 34 and the mounting surface can be prevented without forming the leg portion 24 into a chevron shape. As a result, the self-supporting stability of the support 20 in the deployed posture can be improved.

Next, the support 20 of the third embodiment will be described. 12 is a perspective view of the support 20 of the third embodiment, FIG. 13 is a front view of the support 20, and FIG. 14 is a rear view of the support 20. 15 is a front view of the support 20 in the deployed posture, and FIG. 16 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line BB of FIG. In addition, in FIGS. 13 to 16, the subscripts a to d added after the reference numerals 34 and 36 indicating the holding claw and the locking claw indicate the corresponding relationship with each other. In the following description, the description of the subscripts a to d will be omitted unless necessary.

The support 20 of the present embodiment also has a different structure of the posture holding mechanism as compared with the first and second embodiments. On the other hand, the configurations other than the posture holding mechanism are substantially the same as the support 20 of the first and second embodiments and the support 20 of the present embodiment. In the present embodiment, the posture holding mechanism for maintaining the deployed posture has two pairs of claw pairs 35. As shown in FIG. 16, each claw pair 35 includes two holding claws 34 that stand at both side positions of the main body 22 and sandwich the main body 22 in the deployed posture. By being sandwiched between the two holding claws 34, the main body portion 22 is prevented from falling with respect to the leg portion 24, and the deployed posture is firmly maintained. Further, the two holding claws 34 are inserted into insertion ports 36 (that is, insertion ports having the same subscript) formed at corresponding positions, respectively, and the peripheral edges of the holding claws 34 and the insertion holes 36 are inserted. The frictional force generated between the holding claw 34 and the leg portion 24 is restricted, and the unfolded posture is maintained.

As shown in FIGS. 12 and 14, two pairs of claw pairs 35 are provided at intervals in the width direction of the support 20. Each holding claw 34 is formed by a notch formed in a seat portion constituting the leg portion 24. More specifically, the two pairing holding claws 34 are composed of two notches formed on both sides of the line La directly below the main body portion 22. Both of these two cuts have a substantially U-shape starting from a specific line Lb extending in the height direction and returning to Lb. That is, of the two notches, the notch on the outside in the width direction has a U-shape that opens inward in the width direction, and the notch on the inside in the width direction has a U-shape that opens toward the outside in the width direction. The area surrounded by these two notches is the holding claw 34.

The insertion port 36 into which the holding claw 34 is inserted is formed by a notch formed in a seat portion constituting the leg portion 24. As shown in FIGS. 13 and 14, this notch extends downward from the boundary line (second and third crease lines L2 and L3) between the main body portion 22 and the leg portion 24, and its position in the width direction is Two pairs, a total of four holding claws 34, are positioned, that is, positions passing through the line Lb.

When the support 20 having the above configuration is in the unfolded posture, the bag-shaped legs 24 are opened and the sheet material 30 is bent along the second to fifth fold lines L2 to L5. In the unfolded posture, the insertion ports 36 are located on both front and rear sides of the lower end of the main body portion 22. In this state, if the holding claw 34 surrounded by the U-shaped notch is folded up along the line Lb and inserted into the insertion port 36, the main body 22 is lined up on both sides in the thickness direction (both sides in the front-rear direction). It is sandwiched between the holding claws 34. As a result, the main body 22 is prevented from falling down with respect to the legs 24, and the deployed posture is firmly maintained. Further, the friction between the holding claw 34 and the peripheral edge of the insertion port 36 restricts the movement of the holding claw 34 and, by extension, the leg portion 24, so that the bent state is formed along the second to fifth fold lines L2 to L5. Can be maintained firmly.

As is clear from the above description, according to the present embodiment, since the main body 22 is prevented from falling, the independence of the support 20 is further improved, and the article 12 can be held more stably. Further, also in the present embodiment, as in the second embodiment, since the holding claw 34 does not protrude from the bottom surface of the leg portion 24, interference between the holding claw 34 and the mounting surface can be prevented, and the support 20 in the deployed posture can be prevented. The stability of the can be further improved.

Next, a fourth embodiment will be described. FIG. 17 is an enlarged view of a main part of the sheet material 30, and FIG. 18 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the support 20. In addition to the configuration described so far, the support 20 further includes a bonding agent coating portion 38 coated with a bonding agent. On the other hand, the support 20 of the first embodiment and the support 20 of the present embodiment are substantially the same in configuration other than the adhesive coating portion 38. The configuration of the posture holding mechanism (position and shape of the holding claw 34 and the insertion port 36) may be changed as appropriate.

In the fourth embodiment, the bonding agent is applied to a predetermined range of the back surface of the sheet material 30 (the surface that becomes the inside when folded in half). This adhesive is a pressure-sensitive adhesive that exerts an adhesive force between two bonding agent-coated surfaces facing each other, and does not exhibit an adhesive force on one of the non-bonding agent-coated surfaces. In the present embodiment, this bonding agent is applied to the inner surface of the sheet portion constituting the leg portion 24, which does not face in the flat posture but faces in the deployed posture. Here, the portion facing in the unfolded posture is a portion that is line-symmetrical about the fourth fold line L4 or the fifth fold line L5 that constitutes the front end or the rear end in the unfolded posture. Further, the portion that does not face each other in the flat posture is a portion that is asymmetrical about the first crease line L1. That is, the plurality of bonding agent coating portions 38 are arranged asymmetrically about the first crease line L1, and the pair of bonding agent coating portions 38 joined to each other in the deployed posture are the fourth fold line L1 or the fifth crease line L1. It is arranged symmetrically with respect to the crease line L5.

More specifically, in FIG. 17, the cross-hatched portion and in FIG. 18, the thick line portion is the bonding agent coating portion 38 to which the bonding agent is applied. As shown in FIG. 17, the first and second adhesive coating portions 38a and 38b are both side portions of the fourth crease line (the crease line which is the front end of the leg portion 24 in the unfolded posture). Further, the third and fourth adhesive application portions 38c and 38d are both side portions of the fifth crease line (the crease line which is the rear end of the leg portion 24 in the unfolded posture). As shown in FIG. 18, none of the four adhesive coating portions 38a to 38d face each other in the flat posture. On the other hand, in the unfolded posture, the first and second adhesive coating portions 38a and 38b face each other, and the third and fourth adhesive coating portions 38c and 38d face each other. With the above configuration, the bonding agent coating portion 38 does not adhere to the facing surface in the flat posture, but adheres to the facing surface, that is, to another bonding agent coating portion in the deployed posture. become. As a result, the leg portion 24 is maintained in a bent state along the second to fifth fold lines L2 to L5. As a result, the support 20 can be made self-supporting more stably.

The coated portion of the bonding agent shown in FIGS. 17 and 18 is an example, and other portions of the inner surface of the leg portion 24 as long as they do not face each other in the flat posture and face each other in the deployed posture. May be applied to. For example, the adhesive coating portion 38 may be provided at a position as shown in FIGS. 19 (a) and 19 (b). Further, as shown in FIG. 19C, the bonding agent may be applied by shifting in the width direction of the sheet material. Further, the adhesive is not limited to the pressure-sensitive adhesive as long as it does not exhibit adhesive force in a flat posture, and other adhesives may be used. For example, a bonding agent such as double-sided tape in which one side of the adhesive surface is covered with a release paper may be used. In this case, after deforming to the unfolded posture, the release paper may be peeled off to exert the adhesive force.

As is clear from the above description, in each of the first to fourth embodiments, the legs 24 project back and forth from the main body 22 in the deployed posture, and at that time, the posture of the main body is changed by the posture holding mechanism. Be retained. As a result, the support of the present application can stand on its own more stably than the conventional support. The configurations described so far are all examples, and the support 20 can take a deployed posture in which the legs 24 project in the front-rear direction of the main body 22, and the posture holding mechanism holds the deployed posture. The other configurations may be modified as appropriate. For example, in the description so far, only the bag-shaped structure of the leg portion 24 has been mentioned, but other structures may be used. For example, as shown in FIG. 20, the support 20 is composed of two sheet materials 30f and 30b joined to each other, and the portion to which the two sheet materials 30f and 30b are joined is the "main body portion 22". , The unjoined portion may be referred to as the "leg portion 24". When the support 20 is in the unfolded posture, the two unjoined sheet portions are bent at approximately 90 degrees with respect to the main body portion 22 along the boundary line between the main body portion 22 and the leg portion 24. Just do it. Further, in this case, the posture holding mechanism for holding the deployed posture is, for example, an insertion port 36 formed in the seat portion protruding rearward with the holding claw 34 extending from the seat portion protruding to the front side of the leg portion 24. It is composed of and. When maintaining the unfolded posture, the holding claw 34 extending to the front side may be turned to the rear side and inserted into the insertion port 36 formed in the seat portion on the rear side.

Further, until now, only the configuration having the holding claw 34 and the insertion port 36 has been illustrated as the posture holding mechanism, but the posture holding mechanism may have other configurations. For example, as shown in FIG. 21, a part of the leg portion 24 projecting rearward from the main body portion 22 may be folded back toward the main body portion 22 and fixed to the main body portion 22. As a method of fixing the folded-back portion to the main body portion 22, for example, a claw provided at the rear end of the leg portion 24 may be inserted into an insertion port formed in the main body portion 22, or the leg portion 24 may be inserted. The rear end may be fixed to the main body 22 using a bonding agent or the like. Further, until now, only a form composed of a part of the sheet material 30 (for example, an insertion piece) has been illustrated as the posture holding mechanism, but the posture holding mechanism is long as it holds the posture of the main body 22. The posture is not limited to this, and the posture may be maintained by a member different from the sheet material 30 (for example, a joining member such as a joining tape).

Further, up to now, the film package 10 with a support in which the article 12 is packaged via the packaging film 14 (shrink film) fixed to the front surface of the support has been described as an example, but the support of the present application has been described. The body 20 may be applied to other forms of the package with a support as long as the article 12 is attached to the support 20. For example, the support 20 of the present application may be applied to a package with a support 10 or the like in which the article 12 is directly attached to the support 20 with a removable adhesive.

10 Film packaging with support, 12 articles, 14 packaging film, 20 support, 22 main body, 24 legs, 26 hanging holes, 30 sheet material, 32f, 32b sheet part, 34 holding claws, 35 claw pairs, 36 Insertion port, 38a to 38d adhesive coating part, L1 to L7 crease line.
