Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] The fruit is packaged with a cushioning material having a commercial value that enhances the willingness to purchase by enhancing the natural color of the fruit. [Structure] In a cushioning material for packaging a fruit by cutting a tubular net 2 made of foamed plastic into a predetermined length, a part of the cushioning material is formed in a colored portion 1 suitable for a fruit to be packaged. Become. The colored portion 1 preferably has a color different from that of the tubular net 2.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a cushioning material for packaging fruits such as peaches, apples and pears.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 The cushioning material for packaging fruits such as peaches, apples, pears, etc. is made by cutting a tubular net made of foam plastic into a specified length and packaging the fruits as they are, or by folding them in a double fold and packaging the fruits. Conventionally, this cushioning material has only been white solid or colored in a single color.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 Since the color of this cushioning material is not specifically determined, it often impairs the natural color of the natural fruit. For example, the color of the fruit may be illusionary, and the willingness to purchase may be reduced due to the color of the cushioning material.

Therefore, there is provided a high-commercial-value cushioning material for fruit packaging, which has the effects of eliminating the above-mentioned misidentification of the color of the fruit, promoting purchase motivation, and enhancing the attractiveness of the natural color of the fruit. investigated.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 As a result, in the cushioning material for fruit packaging in which the tubular net 2 made of foamed plastic is cut into a predetermined length to wrap the fruit, the colored portion 1 suitable for the fruit to be packaged is formed for a part of this cushioning material. We have devised a cushioning material for fruit packaging, which is characterized by

The cushioning material may be formed by cutting the tubular net 2 formed of partially colored foamed plastic into a predetermined length to form the coloring, or a part of the monochromatic tubular net 2 may be cut before cutting. Coloring may be performed, or the tubular net 2 may be cut to a predetermined length and then partially colored. Moreover, only one side of the front or back of the cushioning material may be colored, or both sides may be colored.

The colored portion 1 may have the same color as the tubular net 2 but different brightness and darkness, but a different color from the tubular net 2 is preferable. For example, the tubular net 2 is white, and if the fruit to be packaged is peach, it is pink, if it is apple, it is red, and if it is pear, it is green. The colored portion 1 may be a single color or a plurality of colors, and the boundary between the tubular net 2 and the colored portion 1 or the boundary between the respective colors in the colored portion 1 may be shaded or gradation.

[0008]

[Action]

 The color and tone of the coloring part 1 complement the color of the fruit to be wrapped. By providing this coloring part 1 only in a part of the cushioning material, it does not have an impact to the extent that the natural color of the fruit is greatly impaired. An accent is provided to give the viewer a good-looking feeling.

【Example】

 Hereinafter, examples will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a partially cutaway perspective view of a first embodiment of a double-folded cushioning material for fruit packaging according to the present invention in which fruits are packed, and FIG. 2 is a foamed plastic tubular net having an appropriate length. FIG. 4 is a plan view of the first embodiment in which the folded portion is provided with a colored portion in a state cut into pieces. FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing a state in which fruits are packaged by the second embodiment of the cushioning material for packaging fruits, which is obtained by simply cutting the tubular net into a proper length.

The cushioning material of the first embodiment is for packing peaches, and as shown in FIG. 1, the white-colored cylindrical net 2 cut to an appropriate length is double-folded, and the cut ends 21 and 21 are lowered. And wrap peaches 3. As shown in FIG. 2, this cushioning material is colored by applying a pink color only on one side to an appropriate width with the folded part 22 sandwiched between the colored ends 1 near the cut ends 21, 21 of the white tubular net 2. A shade 14 is inserted at the boundary between the part 1 and the non-colored part 11. When the tubular net 2 is folded back with the colored portion 1 inside, the white color of the tubular net 2 on the outer surface 12 of the cushioning material suppresses the color strength of the colored portion 1 on the inner surface 13 of the cushioning material, and the pink color of the colored portion 1 Becomes faint. Now, the peach 3 is emphasized by the colored portion 1 on the contrary, and the surface of the peach 3 looks clear.

The cushioning material of the second embodiment is also for packing peaches, but as shown in FIG. 3, the cushioning material is used as it is without cutting back the cut tubular net 2, and the peaches 3 are packaged so as to be received from below. The colored portion 1 is provided on the cut end 21 at the upper end of the cushioning material. Also in this case, if a pink color is applied to the inside of the cushioning material so that the color of the colored portion 1 does not come into direct contact with the eyes, unlike the first embodiment, the tubular net 2 looks blurry like the white bleeding, Such lightness emphasizes the color of peach 3.

In addition, for example, when the pear is colored green in each of the first and second embodiments described above, for example, when the pear is packaged with a cushioning material, the pear looks like pale yellowish green, which is very visible. It looks good. Further, in a cushioning material such as fruits having two or more color schemes, gradations of several colors may be provided in accordance with the color scheme. In this case, the strength of the color can be adjusted by applying each color to the front side or the back side of the tubular net, so that it is possible to match the subtle color difference caused by the type of fruit or the harvest time.

[0013]

[Effect of device]

 The cushioning material for fruit packaging according to the present invention can be complemented by providing the colored portion according to the fruit to be packaged without impairing the natural color inherent to the fruit. In this way, the original color of the fruit is better communicated to the purchaser, which has the effect of motivating the purchaser.

Further, the endless cushioning material, which has been neglected in the past, has an independent commercial value, which can also enhance the sense of value of the fruit as a product in combination with the packaged fruit.
