Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention is a storage container for wire objects such as electric wires, which can be rolled up and stored in a manner that allows them to be fed out from above. It is used as a wire receptacle when automatically supplying electric wires.

A pail can as shown in FIG. 1 is a conventional linear object storage container of this kind. In the figure, 1 is a synthetic paper cylindrical body, and 2 is a synthetic paper bottom, which is firmly fixed to the bottom of the cylindrical body 1 by a reinforcing metal fitting 3. 4 is cylindrical body 1
A metal fitting 5 for reinforcing the periphery of the upper opening is a synthetic paper lid that is removably fitted into the upper opening of the cylindrical body 1 with a tightening band 6. Reference numeral 7 denotes a cylindrical paper core that is erected at the center of the cylindrical body 1 by a fixture 8.

Since the storage space in such a pail is annular, the electric wires 9 can be drawn out from the top opening by sequentially dropping the electric wires 9 to the bottom of the pail and storing them in an overlapping manner using a circular traverse method.

Conventional linear object storage containers of this kind have the disadvantage of being expensive because they are pail cans as described above.

This invention was made in order to eliminate the drawbacks of the above-mentioned conventional linear object storage containers, and by using square cardboard boxes that are easy to obtain and inexpensive, it is possible to create a low-cost linear object storage container. It provides:

An embodiment of this invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3. In the figure, 10 is a square cardboard box, and the box body 10a is a square cylinder.
Several top cover pieces 10b are connected to the top opening edge of a and are bent at this connection to form the top surface of the box.
and several lower cover pieces 10c which are connected to the opening edge of the lower surface of the box body 10a and are bent at the connected portion to form the lower surface of the box. Reference numeral 11 denotes a cylindrical paper core erected at the center of the lower surface of the box constructed by bending the lower lid piece 10c, and is attached to the lower surface of the cardboard box 10 with an adhesive together with an internal ring body 12. Reference numeral 13 is a trapezoidal corner paper that is applied to each of the four corners of the box body 10a from the inside and tilts outward toward the top opening edge, and is pasted with adhesive to the two sides of the box body 10a and the bottom surface of the box.

After forming the bottom surface of the box by folding the lower lid piece 10c in this way, the paper core 11 is set upright and corner-cutting paper 13 is fixed to the four corners, so that inside the box 10 there is a ring shape similar to that of a pail can. A nearby storage space is created. Therefore, if the electric wires 9 are sequentially dropped to the bottom of the cardboard box 10 using a circular traverse method and then stored in an overlapping manner, the electric wires 9 can be fed out from the opening on the top surface, and the electric wires 9 can be prevented from breaking during storage and transportation. This eliminates this problem and maintains stacking strength.

When the paper core 11 is removed and the lower cover piece 10c is extended when the container is empty, the container becomes flat, making it easy to store and transport the empty container.

Furthermore, if the corner paper 13 is made into a trapezoid shape and tilted outward toward the top opening edge within the box 10 as described above, the storage space for the electric wire 9 becomes a little narrower toward the bottom. The electric wire 9 can be stored even more easily.

As described above, this invention uses square cardboard boxes, which are easy to obtain and inexpensive, so it has the effect of being cheaper than conventional pail cans. Furthermore, because of its square shape, it is easy to carry, provides good stability during loading, and can be folded flat when empty, making it easy to store and transport when empty.
