A space is formed between the top and bottom lids 8 and 9 to bind and retain the electric cord 5 therein with a binding fixture 13, a plate-like part 14 having the top and bottom lids 9 is provided with a notch groove 15 through which to pass the electric cord 5 and a wrapping fixture 16 for wrapping the electric cord 5 is formed of a cushioning material such as corrugated cardboard.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a packaging device for electrical products that is packaged with a power cord exposed from the main body of the electrical product.

Conventional Technology In recent years, there has been an increasing demand for packaging equipment with a simple structure to prevent power cords from coming into contact with electrical products and damaging electrical products during transportation. ing.

A conventional packaging device for electrical products of this type will be explained with reference to FIG.

As shown in the figure, an electrical appliance 1 is supported by a lower cushioning material 2 and an upper cushioning material 3 made of styrofoam or the like, and a power cord 5 is inserted into a space formed at the corner of a rectangular outer case 4 made of cardboard or the like. was wrapped in cushioning material 6 and stored.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention In such a conventional packaging device, the external shape of the power cord 5 when wrapped with the cushioning material 6 may be large depending on the individual differences of the worker who performs the packaging work, and it may be difficult to store the power cord 5 in the outer case 4. When this happens, the outer case 4 may bulge, making the outer case 4 look unsightly.

The present invention is intended to solve the above-mentioned problems, and aims to provide a packaging device for electrical products in which a power cord can be housed in an outer case regardless of individual differences among workers, and the outer case will not be deformed due to bulges or the like. .

Means for Solving the Problems In order to achieve the above object, the present invention has a triangular upper cover and a lower cover that approximately match the corners of the outer case, and a power plug provided on the power cord is connected to the upper cover. The support hole of the power plug, which has a shape smaller than the maximum diameter and into which the power plug is inserted and supported, communicates with this support hole and one side of the top cover, and is larger than the small diameter part of the power cord and smaller than the large diameter part. A power cord packaging device is provided with an insertion groove and made of a cushioning material such as cardboard, and the packaging device in which the power cord is wrapped is stored in the space between the electrical product supported by the cushioning material and the corner of the outer case. It is packaged.

According to the above-described structure, the power plug of the power cord is supported by the upper lid of the packaging device, and the power cord portion is housed in the space formed close to the upper lid and the lower lid, so that the packaging shape of the power cord is improved. is always constant, and the outer case will not bulge even when stored in the outer case.

EXAMPLE Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3. Note that parts that are the same as those in the prior art are given the same numbers and explanations will be omitted.

As shown in the figure, the upper and lower parts are formed into a triangular shape that almost matches the corners of the exterior case 4, and the triangular parts are bent in the same direction by the bending part 7 to form the upper cover 8 and the lower cover 9,
A power plug 10 attached to the power cord 5 on the upper lid 8
The support hole 11 of the power plug 10 into which the power plug 10 is inserted and supported has a shape smaller than the maximum diameter of the support hole 1.
1 and one side of the upper lid 8, an insertion groove 12 is provided which is larger than the small diameter part of the power cord 5 and smaller than the large diameter part, and the power cord 5 is fixed between the upper lid 8 and the lower lid 9. A space is formed in which the upper lid 8 can be bound and stored using the
The plate-shaped portion 14 provided with the lower lid 9 is provided with a cutout groove 15 through which the power cord 5 is inserted, and a packaging tool 16 for the power cord 5 is formed of a cushioning material such as cardboard.

In the above configuration, when packaging, the electrical product 1 is sandwiched between the lower cushioning material 2 and the upper cushioning material 3 and stored in the outer case 4,
In the space between one corner of the exterior case 4 and the electric product 1, a small diameter portion of the power cord 5, which is bound by the stopper 13, near the power plug 10 side is formed on the upper lid 8 of the packaging device 16. The power plug 10 is connected to the support hole 11 to support the power plug 10, the bundled part of the power cord 5 is placed in the packaging tool 16, and the other end of the power cord 5 is inserted into the notch groove 15. The inserted packaging device 16 is stored in the corner side of the outer case 4 so that the triangular vertices of the upper lid 8 and lower lid 9 of the packaging device 16 correspond to each other, and packaging is performed.

As described above, according to the electrical product packaging apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention, the power cord packaging tool 16 is formed with the upper cover 8 and the lower cover 9, and the upper cover 8 is provided with the support hole 11 in which the power plug 10 engages. Since the bundled power cord 5 is accommodated in the space formed between the upper lid 8 and the lower lid 9, the power plug 10 is reliably supported by the support hole 11, and the bundled power cord 5 portion is accurately accommodated in the space between the upper cover 8 and the lower cover 9, so that the packaging shape of the power cord 5 is always constant. Further, when the power cord 5 is stored in the outer case 4, the upper cover 8 and the lower cover 9 formed on the packaging tool 16 are attached to the outer case 4.
Since the packaging device 16 is formed in a shape that almost matches the corner of the outer case 4, the packaging tool 16 is accurately fitted into the corner of the outer case 4, and the outer case 4 is reinforced by the upper cover 8 and the lower cover 9.

Effects of the Invention As is clear from the above embodiments, according to the present invention, the power plug of the power cord is supported by the top lid of the packaging tool, and the power cord portion is accommodated in the space formed by the top lid and the bottom lid. To provide a packaging device for electrical appliances in which the packaging shape of a power cord is always constant regardless of individual differences among packagers and can be stored in an exterior case without deforming the shape of the exterior case.
