Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a transport box suitable for boxing and transporting mandarin oranges and other fruits and vegetables.

[Conventional technology and problems] When transporting fruits and vegetables such as mandarin oranges from production areas to consumption areas, cardboard transport boxes with ventilation holes have traditionally been used. One or two punched sheets were manually assembled to obtain an assembled box, which was then used to store fruits and vegetables. However, such conventional boxes require a lot of time and effort to assemble, making them complicated and having poor assembly workability. Furthermore, in order to provide the box with robustness, the side and end surfaces were double-layered, which resulted in wasteful paper removal, making it unsatisfactory economically.

The present invention was proposed with the aim of solving the above-mentioned problems.The present invention was proposed to solve the above-mentioned problems. To provide a transportation box for fruits and vegetables that can be easily assembled, has robustness to sufficiently protect the contents after assembly, and does not cause baggage.

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention uses a strip-shaped mount consisting of a rectangular bottom plate, a top plate, and front and rear side plates connected in one direction. An end panel is provided in a row on opposite sides of the two end panels, and a notch is provided in the upper center of the end panel.
Overlapping flaps narrower in width than the end panels are arranged on opposite left and right sides of the two side plates, locking pieces for holding the left and right sides of the end panels are extended above the flaps, and the locking pieces and overlapping flaps are connected to each other. With the left and right sides of the end panel sandwiched between the lock piece and the overlapping flap, an insertion gap is provided between the lock piece and the overlapping flap, and the insertion flap attached to the left and right sides of the top plate is inserted into the gap. It is characterized by what it did.

[Example] Next, an example of the present invention will be specifically described based on the drawings.

In FIGS. 1 to 4, reference numeral 1 designates a rectangular bottom plate, 2 a top plate, and 3 and 4 side plates connected to the front and rear sides of the bottom plate 1. These bottom plate, top plate and two side plates are made of corrugated cardboard strips, and are connected in one direction as shown in FIG. Reference numeral 5 is a relatively short flap attached to one end of the top plate 2, and this flap is connected to the bottom plate 1,
When assembling the top plate 2 and the opposing side plates 3 and 4 into a rectangular tube shape, they engage with the locking pieces and become fixing flaps for the top plate, as described later. Reference numeral 6 denotes an oblong ventilation hole formed on the side plates 3 and 4, and 7 denotes a locking piece connected to one side 3 of the opposing side plates. This locking piece 7 has two notches 7 extending from the edge of the side plate toward its center.
1, 72, and both ends of this cut are connected to the fold line 73.
are tied to form a tongue piece 74, and an insertion part 75 is formed at the tip of this tongue piece so as to protrude beyond the edge of the side plate 3. Note that the insertion portion 75
Correspondingly, the insertion hole 76 is formed by a U-shaped cut line formed at the base of the fixing flap 5.

Incidentally, on the left and right opposite sides of the bottom plate 1, end panels 8 having a substantially E shape are arranged in series. That is, the end panel 8 has a notch 81 formed by cutting out the upper center portion into a substantially rectangular shape, and protruding pieces 82, 82 are formed on the left and right sides of the notch. On the other hand, overlapping flaps 9 having a width narrower than the width of the end panel 8 and approximately equal to the width of the protruding piece 82 are provided on the left and right sides of the opposing side plates. In addition, a locking piece 10 capable of holding the left and right sides of the end panel is extended from the upper part of the overlapping flap 9 through a fold 11 provided at its lower part. Note that a protrusion 12 is formed at the tip of the lock piece 10, and a locking hole 13 into which the protrusion is inserted is formed.
is formed near the base of the polymerization flap.

To assemble the shipping box of the present invention using the punched mount formed as described above, first, the left and right end panels 8 are stood upright against the bottom plate 1 as shown by the arrows in FIG. Next, the front and rear opposing side plates 3 and 4 are similarly stood upright, and then the overlapping flap 9 is bent so as to contact the outside of the end panel 8. Then, in order to insert the left and right pieces 82 and 83 of the end panel inside, the lock piece 10 is now folded back inside the end panel 8, and the protrusion 12 at the tip is inserted into the locking hole 13 and fixed. .

In this way, as described above, the left and right pieces of the end panel are held between the lock piece 10 and a portion of the overlapping flap 9, and at the same time, the insertion gap 14 is formed between the lock piece 10 and the overlapping flap 9. Relatively short insertion flaps 15, 15 provided on the left and right sides of the top plate 2 are inserted into the insertion gap as shown in FIG.

By configuring as described above, the present invention can be applied to the fourth
A rectangular cylindrical assembled box is obtained from a single sheet as shown in the figure, and ventilation holes 16 are automatically formed in the end surface of the box. If a tongue piece 17 capable of closing the ventilation hole 16 is formed in the center of the insertion flap, a box body without a ventilation hole on the end surface can be obtained. Furthermore, if the ventilation holes 6 formed in the side plates are not particularly required, they can be omitted. However, in order to fix the top plate 2 during packing, the insertion flap 7 of the locking piece 7 provided on the side plate is used.
5 is formed at the base of the fixing flap 5.
This is done by inserting the Also, in the packaged state shown in Figure 1, ventilation holes are formed on the four sides of the box, so
Since ventilation is maintained inside and outside the box, when fruits and vegetables are stored, the contents will not be steamed inside the box and the product value will not be diminished. In addition, since the contents can be seen through the ventilation holes, it is possible to quickly discover if the contents are damaged or defective.

In addition, as mentioned above, if the ventilation hole or the transparent hole is not required, it is free to close the hole to completely surround the contents.

[Effects of the invention] As described above, according to the invention, by using a single punched sheet and without using any adhesive or fasteners,
Because it can be assembled easily and quickly by hand,
It is extremely suitable as a fruit and vegetable transport box used for storage, assembly, and packaging at production sites.

In addition, in the assembled state, the end panel is clamped and fixed between the lock piece and a part of the overlapping flap, and the end panel has a partially double structure, so it can withstand external forces applied during transportation, storage, and stacking. It has great strength and exhibits extremely excellent robustness with minimal paper removal.

Furthermore, according to the present invention, the bottom surface of the box is flat, and the flap inserted during assembly is inserted into the insertion gap between the locking piece and the overlapping flap, so that it is possible to minimize the bulk of the contents. can.
