Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a photographic film cartridge holder for easily storing and holding a photographic film cartridge.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art The most popular 135 film is usually used with a patrone. At the time of sale, the patrone with the film left in the leader is stored in a plastic container called a P case. ,
This is in the form of being wrapped in a paper box. After filming, the film is developed and printed. In the case of a negative film, the developed film is cut every 6 frames, put in a negative sheath and returned to the user.

As known from Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 6-301157, there has been proposed a film cartridge in which the entire film is wound in the cartridge without the leader portion protruding from the cartridge. The improved cartridge used for this has a function of sending out a film when the spool is rotated, and it is disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 5-2.
As described in Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 97559, it has been considered to store the developed film in the patrone in a long length and return it to the user.

[0004]

As described above, in the conventional 135 film at the time of sale, since the P case accommodating the film cartridge is further packaged in the rectangular parallelepiped-shaped paper box, the packaging cost is reduced. It has the drawback of being expensive. Instead of a paper box, for example, as is known from Japanese Patent No. 690463, it is devised to combine two tubular paper cases to wrap a film cartridge, but it is still sufficient in terms of material cost and packaging man-hours. It is hard to say that a low cost can be achieved. Also, it is preferable to perform proper packaging when storing the developed film in the cartridge and returning it to the user, but this packaging also does not incur packaging cost and is easy for users to organize and store. A packaging form is desired.

The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and provides a photographic film cartridge holder which can easily package the film cartridge at the time of sale or at the time of return and can save the packaging cost greatly. The purpose is to do.

[0006]

In order to achieve the above object, in a holder for a photographic film cartridge of the present invention, the photographic film cartridge is inserted and sandwiched between sheet materials whose both ends are connected and overlap each other, The vicinity of the side forming the open surface of the sheet material is bent so as to be in contact with the end surface of the photographic film cartridge so that the photographic film cartridge does not fall out from between the sheet materials.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, a rectangular sheet material having a width wider than that of the photographic film cartridge to be stored is bent and overlapped, and the end portions are adhered to each other, or two sheet materials are superposed on each other. Stick both ends of the sheet material together, spread the stacked sheet materials into a cylindrical shape to form a storage area, insert a photo film cartridge, and insert the photo film patrone into the photo film. The photographic film cartridge is bent so as to be in contact with the end face of the cartridge so that the photographic film cartridge does not fall out of the storage area. According to a third aspect of the invention, an opening for exposing the label of the photographic film cartridge is provided in the storage area of the sheet material.

FIG. 1 is an explanatory view showing a photographic film cartridge holder of the present invention and a photographic film cartridge stored in the holder. Further, FIG. 2 is an explanatory view showing the structure of the holder for the photographic film cartridge. The holder 2 for a photographic film cartridge has a strip-shaped sheet material folded back at the folding section 3, and the cover sheet 3a and the back sheet 3b are overlapped with each other, and the sticking section 4 is formed.
It is the one where the overlapped parts are pasted together.

Then, notches 5a and 5b and folding lines 6a and 6b are provided on both side surfaces of the lower portion of the sticking portion 4. Further, an opening 7 is provided near the center of the lower part of the sticking part 4. With such a structure, when the overlapping front cover 3a and back cover 3b between the folded-back portion 3 and the sticking portion 4 of the holder 2 for a photo film cartridge are opened so as to be separated from each other, a photograph as shown in FIG. A storage portion 8 that is a storage space for the film cartridge 11 is formed.

A photo film cartridge 1 is stored in the storage section 8.
When 1 is inserted and a part of the cover 3a is bent from the fold lines 6a and 6b, the cover 3 comes into contact with both side surfaces of the photographic film cartridge 11, and the photographic film cartridge 11 is stored in the storage portion 8.
