In the figure, the solid line shows the cutting line and the two-dot chain line shows the broken line. A rectangular bottom plate 2 is formed at the center of the blank sheet, and a pair of side plates 3a and 3b are provided on opposite long sides of the bottom plate 2, and a pair of tab plates 4a and 4b are provided on opposite short sides thereof. They will be installed one after another through broken lines. A top plate 5 having a size corresponding to the bottom plate is provided on the side plate 3a, and an inner plate 6 and a narrow restraining piece 7 are provided in parallel on the extension of the side plate 3b. The restraining piece 7 has a function of holding a stem fixing frame portion 9 and a reinforcing plate 10 which will be described later. Further, reinforcing plates 8a and 8b for reinforcing the side plates 3a and 3b are respectively connected to the left and right sides (upper and lower sides in FIG. 2) of one tab plate 4a provided on the short side of the bottom plate 2, and the other one is connected to the other side. On the left and right sides (upper and lower sides in FIG. 2) of the toe plate 4b, a stem fixing frame portion 9 and a reinforcing plate 10 having the following configurations are distributed and connected.

That is, the stalk fixing portion 9 is formed of a center stalk fixing plate 11 and a pair of side plates 12 a and 12 b having a low height and connected to the left and right of the stalk fixing plate 11. The stem fixing plate 11 at the center is formed to have a size corresponding to the tab plate, and a convex portion 13a is attached to the central portion of the stem fixing plate 11 on the top plate side. Incidentally, reference numeral 13b is a locking hole for fitting the convex portion 13a formed on the bottom plate 2 from the tongue plate 4b. The side plate 12b is integrally connected to one end of the toe plate 4b, and the reinforcing plate 10 is integrally connected to the other end of the toe plate 4b. A stem insertion hole 14 is provided in the center of the stem fixing plate 11, and radial cuts 15 are formed around the stem insertion hole to form a stem pressing flap 16. A polygonal folding line 17 formed so as to connect the radial cut ends is engraved on the outside of the stem insertion hole 14. Therefore, since the stalk presser flap 16 bends downward when the stalk is inserted, it can be easily inserted into the stalk insertion hole 14 even if the diameter of the bundled stalk is slightly larger, and when the stalk is small, the presser flap 16 can be used. The surroundings are fixed and a stable mating state is achieved.

Reference numeral 18 denotes a locking projection that projects from the edge of the inner plate 6, and an insertion hole 19 into which this projection fits is provided on the inner plate 6 side of the bottom plate.

In order to assemble the packaging box of the present invention constructed as described above from the state of a flat blank sheet, first, as shown in FIG. 3, first, the stem fixing portion 9 is assembled into a frame shape. That is, while the toe plate 4b is erected at a right angle to the bottom plate, the stem fixing plate 11 and the pair of side plates 12a and 12b connected to the left and right of the stem fixing plate 11 are folded in a U-shape according to the fold line as shown in FIG. After the side plate 12a and the reinforcing plate 10 are superposed on each other, the restraining piece 7 is folded inside the side plate 12a and fixed by the locking projection 20 and the insertion hole 21 to form a square tube-shaped stem fixing frame. Next, the convex portion 13a of the stem fixing plate 11 is fitted into the locking hole 13b formed in the bottom plate 2. Next, as shown in FIG. 4, after the other tab plate 4a is erected with respect to the bottom plate, the reinforcing plates 8a and 8b are folded at right angles to the tab plate 4a so that they are inside the side plates 3a or 3b, and then the Then, the inner plate 6 is folded inside the reinforcing plates 8b and 10 and the projection 18 formed on the edge thereof is fitted into the insertion hole 19. If half of the side wall of the box is assembled in this way, then at this stage, fresh flowers are stored in the box from the top opening side as an example.

That is, when, for example, 50 pieces of cut roses are packed and transported in a box, a bundle of cut roses is first placed on the bottom plate 2 and the lower part of the stem is inserted into the insertion hole 14 formed in the stem fixing plate 11. Insert it and hold it with the cushion fixing flap 16 so as not to come loose. At this time, it is preferable that the lower part of the stem is covered with water or a water retaining material such as a non-woven fabric containing a freshness-retaining agent to prevent drainage during transportation.

Next, the edge plates 24a and 24b are folded inward so that the top plate does not fall inside the box, and then the opening is covered with the other side plate 3a and the top plate 5, as shown in FIG. As described above, finally, the insert piece 22 attached to the top plate 2 is inserted into the cut groove 23 and sealed with the top plate 2. Fig. 6 shows the packaging when transported or stored. It is stacked horizontally in cold storage containers, automobiles, etc., and in some cases stacked and transported.

[Effect of device]

 According to the transport box according to the present invention, conventionally, the fresh flowers are stored by being pushed into the box, and the insertion hole is formed by placing the bunch of fresh flowers on the bottom plate and forming the lower part of the stem in the stem fixing frame. It can be housed in the box by assembling the opposite side wall of the box so that it encloses bulky flowers and leaves, and can be stored in the box at the time of taking out fresh flowers. It can be taken out by operation. Therefore, it can be easily put in and taken out by one person when putting it in and out of the box, and since it is fixed by inserting the lower part of the stem, which is difficult to bundle, into the insertion hole formed in the stem fixing part, there is no need to bundle it with a string etc. The movement of fresh flowers can be prevented. In addition, the stem fixing part is bent inside the tab plate to form a square tube-shaped stem fixing frame, and the reinforcing plate is folded inside the side plate to double the side wall of the box, so the compressive strength is high and article protection in long-distance transportation. Since the top surface is sealed by inserting it, there is no need for tape fixing, and the top surface does not fall during transportation, which reduces damage to the floral products and enables safe transportation.

The packaging box of the present invention is composed of a single blank sheet, and can be easily assembled into a box by hand from the unfolded state without using a stapler or a hot-melt adhesive only when storing articles. As a result, it is possible to reduce the packaging and shipping cost, as a whole, from the box assembling to the fresh flower packaging and shipping work.
