Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a storage container for a drill / chisel tool having a length which is several times the dimension in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction. In the present specification,
"Drill / chisel tool" refers to a drill tool, a chisel tool and a drill / chisel tool.

[0002]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Drill / chisel tool storage containers must meet various functional requirements. For example, from a tool storage perspective, a container is required to have the ability to protect the tool from contamination and mechanical damage. Further, the display function of tools in warehouses, stores, etc. is one of the roles assigned to containers. In this context, the visual appearance of the container is also important.

Various configurations of storage containers for drill / chisel tools are known. For large tools, individual packaging in cardboard or plastic cases is common. When such a cardboard or plastic case is applied to a small tool, the cost will increase if it is configured to store individual tools, and it is difficult to individually take out the tool if configured to store multiple tools. Becomes For small tools, plastic carrying cases have become popular. Such a plastic case not only increases the manufacturing cost, but also has a problem from the viewpoint of resource reuse.

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the invention to propose a tool container which is economical to manufacture and reusable and which allows easy removal of the drill / chisel tool.

In order to solve this problem, the present invention provides a container for a drill / chisel tool having a length which is several times the dimension in the direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, in which at least one end wall has a tapered region. And a tool take-out port is arranged in the taper region.

The container according to the invention comprises a plurality of small drills /
Can hold a chisel tool. A take-out opening is arranged in the tapered region provided on at least one of the end walls. When the container is supported with the taper region facing downward, the tool is always in contact with the take-out port region and stands by, so that the taper region has a function of distributing the tool in the container.

In order to ensure that the tool is on standby in the outlet area, it is advantageous for the end wall of the container to have a tapered shape such as a pyramid or a cone. In this case, the contact of the tool with the take-out port area can be further improved. It is preferable that the end wall has a pyramidal shape in a container having a square cross section and the end wall has a conical shape in a container having a circular cross section.

Particularly for manufacturing reasons, it is advantageous for the container to have a square cross section. In this case, the end wall of the container has a pyramidal tapered region. Square cross-section containers can be manufactured very easily by folding. There are various types of foldable materials suitable for practical use. For economic reasons and possible reuse, it is advantageous to use cardboard as the material for the entire container.

Advantageously, the outlet can be closed by means of a flap, in which case part of the wall of the container in the tapered region is used as flap. The flap is separated from the rest of the wall, allowing it to pivot about the central axis of the joint. The flaps can be easily formed by slits cut into the wall and the area where the joint is to be formed is not slit. That is, the joint is formed from the remaining area of the wall. It is advantageous to set the depth of the slits appropriately so that the joint has sufficient mechanical strength that it will not break under the weight of the drill / chisel tool, but will break under the action of an external force. For example, the external force is exerted by pressing with a finger of an operator using a drill / chisel tool.

The flap, which is pushed from the outside of the container by cutting the slit, ensures an opening sufficient for removal of the drill / chisel tool, as long as it is open. On the other hand, for example, when the self-weight of the drill / chisel tool acts to push the flap outward from the inside of the container, the flap contacts the remaining portion of the slit and closes the outlet. Since the take-out opening is automatically closed by the weight of the drill / chisel tool, it is possible to prevent the drill / chisel tool from being accidentally dropped from the container. The central axis of the fitting advantageously extends perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the container and is located at the boundary of the outlet adjacent the end wall. In this case, it becomes possible to press the flap by the own weight of the drill / chisel tool to reliably close the outlet.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Hereinafter, the present invention will be described more specifically based on illustrated embodiments.

The storage container for the drill / chisel tool shown in FIG. 1 has a square cross section. The storage container comprises a longitudinal side wall 1 and front and rear end walls 2, 3. One end wall 2 is formed flat and extends substantially perpendicular to the side wall 1. The other end wall 3 is formed as a roof-shaped taper region,
The take-out port 4 is arranged in this tapered region. The outlet 4 is closed by a flap 5. The flap 5 is formed from a part of the end wall 3 by the slit 5a and the joint 5b.

The alternate long and short dash line in FIG. 1 shows a state in which the flap 5 is pushed into the storage container to open the outlet 4.

The tool container shown in FIG. 2 also has a square cross section. This storage container is composed of a longitudinal side wall 6 and front and rear end walls 7, 8. One end wall 7 is formed flat,
It extends substantially perpendicular to the side wall 6. The other end wall 8 is formed as a pyramidal tapered region. An outlet 9 is formed in a part of the end wall 8. Flap this outlet 9
Closed by 10, the flap 10 shall consist of the remainder of the end wall 8 defined by the slit 10a and the joint 10b.
