Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a storage case for storing a plurality of product packages for holding products such as batteries under a mount such as a blister package.

2. Description of the Related Art For example, a blister package known from Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 61-90758 is known as a product package for displaying products such as dry batteries in a state of being hung in a store.

As shown in FIG. 8 (shown in the horizontal direction in this figure), this blister package includes a mount portion 51 and a transparent synthetic resin coating portion 52 that covers the lower portion of the mount portion 51. The covering portion 52 includes a joint portion 53 that is joined to the mount portion 51 and a storage portion 54 that stores a product. Therefore, the product is held at the bottom of the package 55, the hanging hole 56 is provided at the upper end of the mount 51, and a copy of the product name or the like is printed on the upper part. At retail stores, the price tag is usually affixed to this upper space.

As a first conventional example of a case used when shipping such a product package 55 to a store, as shown in FIG. 8, for example, a dozen product packages 55 are stacked upside down in a compact manner. It is known to store in. However, when displaying these product packages 55 at the store, this case 57 is not used as an exhibition case, and at the store, this case 57 is used as the product package.
It will be exhibited by another means such as taking out 55 and hanging it on a hook.

In the second conventional example shown in FIG. 9, the case 58 at the time of shipment can be used as an exhibition case at a store.
Can be divided into an upper case 58a and a lower case 58b by perforations. Therefore, if you separate the upper case 58a,
The lower case 58b becomes the display case, and the product package 55
Can be held upright for display. In this conventional example, for the purpose of exhibiting the product, the product package 55 is stored in advance in the same vertical direction and direction, or in the lower case.
The shape of the upper edge of 58b is elaborate. In addition, it is also devised that a protective pad that restrains the movement of the product package 55 at the time of shipping can be used as the spacer 59 so that the front-rear spacing of the product package 55 becomes substantially constant.

However, in the second conventional example, since the product packages have to be aligned in the same direction in the vertical direction, the case becomes large because the upper space in the case is occupied only by the upper part of the product package. There is.

In addition, the case is easily damaged during shipping at the perforation portion, and since the case must be neatly divided along the perforation at the store, there is a problem that it takes time to form the display case.

In addition, the spacer using the protective pad is a separate member, and it is necessary to remove this spacer each time the product package is taken in and out, which makes it inconvenient for retailers to price the product package, etc. There is also a problem that it is difficult to reduce the cost by automating the boxing work because the protective pad must be bonded on site.

Further, since only one display case can be formed from the case at the time of shipping, there is also a problem that it is difficult to divide a small lot for a store that does not want to have a lot of stock.

In view of the above problems, the present invention can store a product package in a small space, can easily put in and take out a product package, and can automate boxing work.
Moreover, it is an object of the present invention to provide a storage case for a compact product package that can be used as an exhibition case that can be divided into small lots, and that has almost no wasted space in which products are not packed.

Means for Solving the Problems A storage case for a product package according to the present invention is a storage case for a product package that holds a product at a lower portion of a mount part, and two storage packages for supporting a plurality of product packages so that the product packages can be vertically inserted and removed. It consists of package storage boxes, and the product packages stored in one package storage box are stored in the reverse direction of the product packages stored in the other package storage box, and the adjacent side walls of both package storage boxes are the upper ends. It is continuous with the fold line of the horizontal part, and in the state where both package storage boxes are moved upside down with respect to the fold line, the upper part of the product package held in one package storage box The bottom of the product package held in the other package storage box should overlap It is characterized in that it is configured in.

In the above configuration, it is preferable that the package storage box is provided with a positioning portion that keeps the front-rear spacing of the product package substantially constant, or that the two package storage boxes can be divided into two at the upper end horizontal portion.

The exterior of the storage case can be made compact by placing the two package storage boxes in opposite postures and inserting them into an exterior case made of a tubular body having a rectangular cross section that can be stored.

Effects According to the storage case for a product package of the present invention, two package storage boxes facing each other in the upside-down direction are moved around the fold lines so that the corresponding side walls are aligned with each other, and are in the same direction. This allows one set of left and right display cases to be formed with one touch. Further, if the display case itself is provided with a positioning portion that holds the front and rear intervals of a plurality of product packages substantially constant, the product can be manufactured without the trouble of moving the spacer of another member one by one as in the second conventional example. Package can be taken in and out. Therefore, it is possible to smoothly carry out the work such as pricing at the store and automate the boxing work at the production site.

At the time of shipping, this storage case has an upper part of the product package held in one package storage box, that is, a mount only part, and a lower part of the product package held in the other package storage box, that is, a part where the product is held. These merchandise packages can be stored so that they overlap one another. Therefore, there is almost no wasted space in which products are not packed, and the storage space can be made compact.

If the two package storage boxes can be divided into two at the upper horizontal portion, the two package storage boxes can be divided into two display cases, and thus a small division is possible.

Furthermore, since the outer case of the present invention does not have perforations as in the second conventional example, damage due to such perforations can be avoided.

Embodiments FIGS. 1 to 5 show a first embodiment in which the present invention is applied to a storage case 2 of a blister package 1 for holding a battery and an exterior case 3 for storing the blister package 1 so that it can be taken in and out.
