This relates to a connecting tube for displaying cans.

(Prior Art) A common method for displaying a large number of cans of the same size at a store is to stack a large number of cans of the same height in multiple tiers. In this case, a method is practiced in which the bottom of the can stacked on top is stacked on top of the can below, or a method in which the bottom of the can stacked on top is supported by a plurality of cans and stacked like a pyramid.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) However, when exhibited using the above-mentioned stacking means, it is extremely unstable, and even slight vibrations or collisions cause the stacked state to collapse and become scattered around, making it extremely difficult to stack them again. There was a problem that it took a lot of time.

The object of the present invention is to provide a connecting cylinder for displaying cans, which can display a large number of cans in a stable and orderly manner vertically and horizontally, at a low cost.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to achieve the above object, the present invention forms a flat cylindrical body that can be deformed into a three-dimensional cylindrical shape using a sheet member having an appropriate waist strength. At least one connecting piece that is continuous with the cylindrical wall at the upper or lower part is punched and formed on the cylindrical wall of the cylindrical body, and on the cylindrical wall opposite to the cylindrical wall on which this connecting piece is formed,
This structure is characterized in that a connecting piece insertion hole is formed, and an upper can holding cylinder and a lower can holding cylinder are formed above and below the flat cylinder.

(Function) A plurality of can display connecting tubes of the present invention configured as described above are always used. In this case, first the flat cylinder is transformed into a three-dimensional cylinder.

Next, after inserting the connecting piece of the other can display connecting tube into the connecting piece insertion hole of one can display connecting tube,
The lower part of the can holding cylinder of the can display connecting cylinder with the connecting piece inserted is placed over the upper part of the can, and the lower part of the cans to be stacked is inserted into the upper part of the can holding cylinder. As a result, the connecting piece of the other can display connecting tube inserted through the connecting piece insertion hole will be sandwiched between the stacked cans, and the connecting piece of the can display connecting tube and the other can display connecting tube will be sandwiched between the can display connecting tube and the other can display connecting tube. The connecting tubes are connected laterally.

Furthermore, a connecting piece of a connecting tube for can display other than the above is inserted into the connecting piece insertion hole of the connecting tube for can display other than the above, and the can of the connecting tube for can display in which the connecting piece is inserted is inserted. The lower part of the holding cylinder is placed over the upper part of the can, and the lower parts of the cans to be stacked are inserted into the upper part of the can holding cylinder, thereby connecting the three can display connecting cylinders in the lateral direction.

By connecting the required number of can display connecting cylinders in the same manner, the stacked cans can be connected in a horizontal line.

In addition, when stacking more cans on top of the cans stacked horizontally, the uppermost can should be covered with the lower part of the can holding tube of the can display connecting tube in which the connecting piece is inserted, and then the can The cans to be stacked are inserted into the upper part of the holding cylinder.

Therefore, the cans stacked in the vertical direction are restrained by the lower part of the can holding cylinder and the upper part of the can holding cylinder of the can display connecting cylinder, and are connected in the horizontal direction by the connecting piece.

(Example) Next, an example of the present invention will be described in detail based on the drawings as follows.

Fig. 1 is a front view of a connecting tube for can display according to an embodiment of the present invention in a flat state, Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view when it is shaped like a three-dimensional cylinder, and Fig. 3 is a connecting tube for can display of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a partially cutaway front view of the used and stacked state.

Figures 1 and 2 show a case in which two connecting pieces 5a and 5b are provided. First, a flat cylinder that can be transformed into a three-dimensional cylinder shape using a transparent vinyl chloride sheet member having an appropriate stiffness. Form body 1.

The flat cylindrical body 1 is formed by connecting flat sheets into a cylindrical shape, or by cutting a cylindrical material into a predetermined length.

A circular connecting piece 5a is formed on the front cylinder wall 2 and rear cylinder wall 3 of the flat cylinder 1, leaving connecting parts 4a and 4b continuous with each cylinder wall and forming horizontal fold lines 8 and 9 at the upper part. , 5b are punched out, and the punched holes are used as connecting piece insertion holes 6a, 6b, and an upper can holding cylinder upper part 7a and a lower can holding cylinder lower part 7b are formed on the upper and lower sides.

Next, the case of connecting cans in the vertical and horizontal directions using the can display connecting cylinder of the present invention constructed as described above will be described with reference to FIG.

First, all of the required number of connecting tubes for can display are connected to the second tube.
As shown in the figure, the flat cylinder 1 is transformed into a three-dimensional cylinder, one connecting piece 5a is taken out, and the other connecting piece 5b is bent into the three-dimensional cylinder as shown by the two-dot chain line. .

Next, as shown in FIG. 3, after inserting the connecting piece 5a of the other can display connecting tube B into the connecting piece insertion hole 6b of one can display connecting tube A, the connecting piece 5a is inserted. The lower part 7b of the can holding cylinder of the connecting cylinder A for displaying cans
is placed on top of the can C1, and when the lower part of the can C2 to be stacked is inserted into the can holding cylinder upper part 7a, the connecting piece 5a of the other can display connecting cylinder B inserted from the connecting piece insertion hole 6b is inserted. are stacked cans C1 and C2
caught between.

Furthermore, when connecting another can display connecting tube C other than the above, the connecting piece 5a of the can display connecting tube C
into the connecting piece insertion hole 6b of the other can display connecting cylinder B, and insert this connecting piece 5a into the can C3 and the can C.
It is inserted between 4.

Furthermore, when cans C5 are further stacked on top of cans C2 stacked horizontally, they are stacked in the same manner as described above.

In addition, in the above case, two connecting pieces 5a,
5b and two connecting piece insertion holes 6a, 6b are formed, but the present invention is not limited to this.
It goes without saying that the same effect can be achieved even if one connecting piece and one connecting piece insertion hole are formed facing each other.

Further, the three-dimensional cylinder shape is not limited to a cylindrical shape, and may be a regular polygon as long as the connecting piece and the connecting piece insertion hole are provided in opposing cylinder walls.

Furthermore, a transparent material is preferable since the design on the can surface can be seen through, but it may be opaque.

(Effects of the invention) According to the connecting tube for displaying cans of the present invention, which is constructed and operates as described above, cans stacked vertically can be
Since the can display connecting tube is restrained by the lower part of the can holding tube and the upper part of the can holding tube, and is laterally connected by connecting pieces, the stacked state will collapse due to slight vibration or collision. The problems caused by cans being scattered around the cans have been solved, and cans of the same size can be aligned horizontally and stacked vertically in an extremely stable manner, making it possible to create beautiful displays in stores and increase commercial effectiveness. Improved.

In addition, even if it is necessary to move stacked cans, the cans are connected laterally with the connecting pieces of the can display connecting tube, making it possible to move them as one unit, making the task easier. can be done.

Furthermore, when connecting tubes for displaying cans are connected in the horizontal direction, the connecting pieces of the connecting tubes for displaying cans on either the left or right end are not used for connection, so they can be used to write advertisements and messages, which can be used for advertising purposes. can be improved.
