Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention mainly relates to a handle used for a packaging container such as a prefabricated container.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 As a conventional handle of this type, for example, the one disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Publication 1-29808 is known. As shown in FIG. 9, the handle 51 has a collar 52 around the opening of the hollow body, and a protrusion 54 is provided on the outer side of the upper surface 53 of the hollow body, and on the outer side of the lower surface 55. The elastic locking claw 56 is provided in the structure. With this structure, the handle 51 first inserts the protrusion 54 into the hole 58 of the mounted body 57 and locks it on the back surface thereof, and then the elastic locking claw 56 uses its elasticity. It is attached to the attached body 57 by inserting it into the hole 58 while bending it upwards and sandwiching the attached body 57 by the collar portion 52, the protrusion 54 and the elastic locking claw 56 (see FIG. 10).

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, in this conventional handle 51, since the elastic locking claws 56 are arranged so as to extend in the depth direction of the hollow body portion, the depth of the lower surface 55 must be secured by that amount, and the attached body is to be attached. There is a defect that the amount of protrusion of the handle 51 into the inside of 57 becomes large. Further, since the elastic locking claw 56 is formed by cutting out the lower surface 55 and is integrally continuous with the lower surface 55 as a base end, it is inherently difficult to bend. For this reason, it is necessary to apply a large force with a tool to insert it into the hole 58 of the attached body 57, and there is also a problem that it takes time to attach the handle 51. For the same reason, this problem can similarly occur when the handle 51 is removed.

The present invention has been made in order to solve such a problem, and can be attached and detached extremely easily with one touch without using a tool, and moreover, it can be installed in a body to be attached. The purpose is to provide a compact handle with a small protruding amount.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to achieve the above object, the handle of the present invention has a hollow body portion having an opening formed at least at one end, and a collar portion provided outside the hollow body portion adjacent to the opening and a hollow body portion. An engaging protrusion that is provided on the outside so as to face the collar, and an outside of the hollow body opposite to the engaging protrusion that faces the collar in a direction substantially orthogonal to the depth direction of the hollow body. And an elastic locking band that overhangs.

[0006]

[Action]

 The locking projections and collars pinch the side plate of the mounted body when the upper part of the hollow body is inserted diagonally upward into the handle hole of the mounted body. When it is inserted into the handle hole, it is compressed with a finger, and by releasing the finger after insertion, it returns to its original state due to its elasticity, and between the side part near the protruding top and the brim part of the mounted object. Insert the side plate. Further, since the elastic locking band extends in the direction substantially orthogonal to the depth direction of the hollow body, the depth of the hollow body may be short.

Further, according to the handle of the second aspect, since the elastic locking band extends from the portion of the hollow body whose cross section is reduced, the depth of the handle is increased in the portion where the cross section is not reduced. While it is possible to secure a large area, the elastic locking band can be made to overhang largely by utilizing the remaining space of the part with the reduced cross section.

【Example】

 Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail based on embodiments with reference to the drawings.

1 to 6 show a handle according to a first embodiment of the present invention. The handle 1 is made of, for example, integrally molded plastic, and has a hollow body portion 2 which is inserted into the handle holes 22 of the assembled container 21. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the hollow body 2 has an opening 4 at one end, and the peripheral wall 3 of the hollow body 2 has an elliptical cross section on the side of the opening 4 while the side opposite to the opening 4 is formed. In the above, about 1/3 of the lower side is cut to form the flat wall 7, and the cross section is almost semi-elliptical. Therefore, the length of the hollow body portion 2 from the opening 4 to the other end, that is, the depth of the handle 1 is large in the upper portion of about 2/3 and small in the lower portion of about 1/3. . The other end of the peripheral wall 3 is closed by an upper wall 5 and a lower wall 6 which are both flat.

A flange portion 8 is formed on the peripheral wall 3 of the hollow body portion 2 so as to be adjacent to the opening 4 over the entire outer periphery. In addition, a locking projection 9 is provided on the upper surface of the peripheral wall 3 at a predetermined distance from the flange 8. Furthermore, an elastic locking band 10 is formed on the flat wall 7 of the hollow body 2. Both ends of the elastic locking band 10 are supported by the ends of the lower surface of the flat wall 7 in the width direction, and extend downward in an arcuate shape at a distance from the side surface of the lower wall 6. It faces the brim 8 at the top of the loop.

The handle 1 configured as described above is inserted and attached to each of the pair of handle holes 22, 22 of the assembled container 21 as follows. First, while slightly tilting the handle 1, insert the upper part of the hollow body 2 diagonally upward into the handle hole 22 so that the side plate of the container 21 is sandwiched between the locking projection 9 and the flange 8. Then, the elastic member The handle 1 is raised while compressing the tongue 10 upward with fingers, and the lower portion of the hollow body 2 is inserted into the handle hole 22. Then, when the finger is released from the elastic locking band 10, the elastic locking band 10 that has been compressed returns to its original state due to its elasticity, and is placed between the side part near the protruding top part and the brim part 8. The side plates of the container 21 are sandwiched. As described above, the attachment of the handle 1 to the container 21 is completed.

Further, the removal of the handle 1 can be carried out in the reverse order of the above-mentioned attachment, that is, while the elastic locking band 10 is compressed upward by the finger, the lower part of the hollow body 2 is removed by the handle. The hollow body 2 may be removed from the hole 22 and then the upper portion of the hollow body 2 may be pulled out obliquely downward from the handle hole 22.

As described above, the elastic locking band 10 is compressed in the direction perpendicular to the direction in which the elastic locking band 10 extends in the vicinity of the projecting top portion when the handle 1 is attached and detached. For this reason, this compression can be performed with a small force, and therefore the handle 1 can be attached and detached extremely easily with one touch without using a tool and only with the operation of fingers. As described above, the handle of the present invention can be easily attached and detached with one touch, and is particularly useful when applied to a prefabricated container in which assembly and disassembly are repeated. From this point of view, as shown in FIG. 1, the assembling container 21 is preferably of a type that can be easily assembled or disassembled by inserting or withdrawing the corner frame 23 or the intermediate frame 24.

Further, since the elastic locking band 10 is arranged so as to extend in a direction substantially perpendicular to the depth direction of the hollow body portion 2, the depth of the peripheral wall 3 can be short, so that the handle inside the container 21 can be handled. The amount of protrusion of 1 can be reduced. In particular, in the embodiment, the cross section of the peripheral wall is partially reduced to form the flat wall 7, and the elastic locking band 10 is arranged in the space below the flat wall 7, so that the depth of the upper portion of the handle 1 is reduced. The elastic locking band 10 can be made larger so as to be more flexible while the space for inserting a finger can be secured by making it larger. The shape of the elastic locking band 10 may be other than the above-mentioned arcuate shape. For example, the semicircular shape shown in (a) of FIG. 8, the rectangular shape of (b), the triangular shape of (c) and the triangular shape of (d) shown in FIG. A corrugated one can be considered.

FIG. 7 shows a second embodiment of the present invention. This handle 41 is different from the first embodiment only in that the handle 1 of the first embodiment described above is a bag handle, but the upper wall 5 of the handle 1 is deleted to make a through handle. The configuration is exactly the same. Therefore, the same effect as the first embodiment can be obtained.

The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, but can be implemented in various modes. For example, although the embodiment describes the case where the handle is attached to the assembled container, the handle of the present invention can be attached to other types of packaging containers and any attached object. In the embodiment, the locking projections are provided on the upper part of the handle and the elastic locking bands are provided on the lower part of the handle, but these may be provided upside down on the handle, or on the left and right sides of the handle. Of course, it is also good.
