Abstract

PURPOSE:To easily hold a plurality of cans by providing semicircular tabs for preventing release foldably connected to both ends of a top plate and a bottom plate of a box having openings at both ends. CONSTITUTION:Semicircular tabs 11, 31 for preventing release matching an inner diameter size of a circular part formed at each of vertical ends of a can C are connected respectively to both ends of a bottom plate 1 and a top plate 3 of a box constructed to have openings on both ends. The tabs 11, 31 for preventing release are folded inward at both ends of the bottom plate 1 and the top plate 3 so that their tips have slight elastic force. Therefore when cans C...C are housed in a holder, the tabs 31 at both ends of the top plate 3 are in contact with inner periphery of a circular clamped part 32 at the upper end of the cans C at both ends to prevent the cans C from moving. The tabs 11 at both ends of the top plate 1 are in contact with an inner diameter of a circular recess 13 formed at the bottom of the can C to correctly prevent the can C from moving.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a holder for collectively displaying or carrying a plurality of cans such as canned beer, canned juice, etc. in a store.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art It has been well known that canned beer and canned juice are put together in one container for display and portable use.

[0003]

However, the known holder has a structure in which a container is formed in a box shape and a portable carrying handle is formed in a part of the container, and the cans are simply placed in the box body. Since the structure is only accommodated, the thickness of the paper used for the box becomes thicker, and the structure becomes complicated, resulting in a rise in manufacturing cost.

Further, the cans contained in the container are simply contained in the container, and there is no means for holding and fixing the contained cans. Therefore, the container can be carried in an inclined manner or upside down. It was impossible to carry it around.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and can accurately store cans while having a simple structure, and the stored cans can be used as portable means. It is an object of the present invention to provide a holder for cans that can be accurately held regardless of the above.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a holder for cans which is constructed so that the strength of the holder can be accurately maintained even if the thickness of the paper used for the holder is thinner than in the past. is there.

[0007]

According to the present invention, semi-circular detachment preventing tongue pieces are foldably connected to both ends of a bottom plate and a top plate of a box whose both ends are open. The main point of the invention is a holder for cans whose pieces are bent so as to come into contact with the back surfaces of both ends of the bottom plate and the top plate.

[0008]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

1 to 4 show a first embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 5 shows a second embodiment of the present invention.

The holder of the present invention is made of a relatively thin paperboard and is formed in a box shape with both ends open. The bottom plate 1, the front wall 2, the top plate 3, the rear wall 4 and the glue allowance 5 are provided. Bending line 6
6 are connected in succession, and semi-circular tongue pieces 11, 11 and 31, 31 for preventing separation are formed at both ends of the bottom plate 1 and the top plate 3 by bending lines 7, 7. It has a structure that is continuous through each.

The lengths of the bottom plate 1 and the top plate 3 (the length in the height direction in FIG. 1) are adapted to the outer diameter of the can C to be housed, and the front wall 2 and the rear wall 4 are arranged. Is sized to match the height of the cans C to be stored. (Fig. 3,
As illustrated in FIG. 44, when the outer diameter dimension of the bottom portion of the can C is smaller than the outer diameter dimension of the upper portion, the length of the bottom plate 1 is shorter than the length of the top plate 3. )

Reference numerals 12 and 12 denote inclined pieces formed on both sides of the bottom plate 1 as required. When the outer diameter of the bottom of the can C is smaller than the outer diameter of the upper portion of the can C, the inclined pieces 12 and 12 are formed. Is used to accurately hold the bottom of the can C, which prevents the bottom of the can C from moving laterally during use.

Tongue pieces 11, 11 formed in a semicircular shape for preventing separation
31 and 31 are set according to the inner diameter of the annular portion formed at the upper and lower ends of the can C to be housed, and the size of the separation preventing tongue 31 formed at both ends of the top plate 3. Is a semi-circular shape that matches the inner diameter of an annular winding tightening portion 32 formed on the outer peripheral portion of the upper end of the can C to be accommodated, and the tongue pieces 11, 11 for preventing separation formed on both end portions of the bottom plate 1. The size of the can is C
It has a semicircular shape that matches the inner diameter of the circular recess 13 formed at the bottom of the.

The tongue pieces 11, 11 and 31, 31 for preventing separation
The tip of the tongue is bent inside the both ends of the bottom plate 1 and the top plate 3 so as to exert elastic force. (The tip of the tongue piece for preventing separation is bent so as to have a force to stand inward of the bottom plate 1 and the top plate 3) (see FIG. 4).

A second embodiment illustrated in FIG. 5 illustrates a structure in which two holders in the first embodiment are connected in series. The top plates 3 and 3 in the first embodiment are connected in succession. It has a different structure.

In the case of this structure, the front walls 2 and 2, the bottom plates 1 and 1 and the rear walls 4 and 4 are bent on both sides of the top plate 3 having a width double that of the top plate 3 in the first embodiment (illustration). (Not shown), and a gluing margin (not shown) that is continuous with both ends of the rear walls 4 and 4 is glued to the central portion of the back surface of the top plate 3.

Two tongue pieces 31 ... 31 for preventing separation are connected to both ends of the double-width top plate 3 in a freely bendable manner. The tongues 11 ... of 11 are continuously bent.

In the figure, numerals 8 and 8 are holes for inserting fingers formed in the top plate 3, which are provided for carrying stools.

[0019]

According to the present invention, the inner diameters of the annular portions formed at the upper and lower end portions of the can C at both end portions of the bottom plate 1 and the top plate 3 of the box configured to have openings at both end portions. The semicircular disengagement prevention tongue pieces 11, 11 and 31, 31 are made continuous, and the disengagement prevention tongue pieces 11, 11 and 3 are continuous.
1 and 31 have a structure in which both ends of the bottom plate 1 and the top plate 3 are folded so that the tips have some resilience, so that when the cans C ... C are housed in the holder, the top plate 3 Tongue pieces 31 and 31 formed on both ends for preventing separation are annular tightening portions 32 formed on the upper ends of the cans C and C housed on both ends.
The tongue pieces 11, 11 formed on both ends of the bottom plate 1 prevent the movement of the can C by coming into contact with the inner peripheral edge of the can C.
The contact with the inner diameter of the circular recess 12 formed in the bottom of the can can accurately prevent the movement of the can C, and can exert an excellent effect. (See Figure 4)

Further, tongue pieces 11, 11 and 31, 31 for preventing separation
Since it is formed in a semi-circular shape, the tongue piece 1 for preventing disengagement even if the cans C ... C housed in the holder are rotated in the circumferential direction.
The locking (contact) of 1, 11 and 31, 31 is not released, and accurate and strong holding force can be exerted.

Furthermore, since the present invention can be formed by using a relatively thin paperboard, there is an economical advantage that it can be provided at a low cost as compared with a known holder.

Further, if two holders of the present invention are arranged side by side, half a dozen cans can be easily exhibited and carried.
