Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an improvement of a packing pedestal used for packing a storage such as a dryer, an air conditioner or an outdoor unit thereof.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art For example, as a packing device used for packing a dryer or the like, it is necessary to hold the main body of the device and its accessories so as not to move inside the cardboard box.
Moreover, it is composed of various cushioning materials for the purpose of protecting it from impact during transportation. Generally, in the case of packing a comparatively heavy container, a method is generally used in which the container is first placed on a pedestal and then covered with a cardboard box cover from above.

A conventional pedestal has a structure in which a foam plastic molded in an appropriate shape is arranged inside a box made of corrugated cardboard having an open top. The foamed plastic is a material having an excellent cushioning function for protecting the equipment, and since it is easy to mold, it has the advantage that it can be easily fitted to the shape of the bottom of the housing. Further, even when it is necessary to individually hold and fix the motor and other accessories, it is possible to cope with them very easily.

[0004]

However, although the foamed plastic itself has extremely excellent characteristics, various problems such as a treatment method after being used as a cushioning material for packaging have recently occurred. For example, it is a big social problem that it is discarded as household waste because the collection route is undeveloped. In order to prevent this, handling at the time of collection takes time and the collection cost becomes high.
In addition, when incinerating and discarding, it requires high energy, so maintenance of the incinerator is required. From these facts, particularly in European countries, it is the current situation that incineration is extremely disliked and the foamed plastic itself is not used.

In addition to this, the cushioning material using foamed plastic has the drawbacks of being extremely bulky, having low transportation efficiency, increasing transportation costs, and requiring a large storage space. For this reason, there has been a widespread demand in the industry for a corrugated cardboard pedestal as a substitute for foamed plastic that has a high cushioning function, is easy to process, and can be easily assembled.

[0006]

Therefore, the present inventor has achieved the present invention as a result of earnest research in view of the above problems, and is characterized in that when a container is packed, the container is stored. A corrugated triangular columnar box body in which a body is placed and a corrugated bottom case with an open top is provided with hypotenuse plates for abutting the corners of the storage body placed in the bottom case. Are placed in the four corners.

Here, the "housing" referred to in the present specification means an object to be placed on the pedestal for packing according to the present invention and packed. This includes not only home appliances such as the above-mentioned dryer and air conditioner, but also office machines such as copying machines and cabinets.

The "bottom case" is a box-shaped box made of corrugated cardboard with an open top. This has a structure such as a C-shaped lid (body having a lid and a body separate from each other and having a lid on the body) or a body of a general cardboard box. As a bottom case, in addition to a tray shape consisting of a bottom plate and side plates provided around it, the side plates are bent in a U shape to form a box shape to add a cushioning function, It may be provided with a space for storing items and the like. In addition, a cushioning body such as a corrugated cardboard formed into a rectangular tube shape or a box shape or a plurality of stacked layers may be provided on the bottom plate, and the storage body may be placed on the cushioning body.

The "triangular prismatic box" is a member formed by bending a corrugated cardboard into a triangular prismatic shape. In this triangular columnar box, the surface corresponding to the hypotenuse portion of the triangle is the hypotenuse plate. The triangular column-shaped boxes are respectively arranged at the four corners inside the bottom case, and the hypotenuse plate is brought into contact with each corner of the container to support the container while providing a cushioning function. That is, basically, the corner portion of the base of the storage body and the hypotenuse plate are in line contact with each other so as to be supported. For this reason, it is preferable to increase the strength by forming the corrugated board forming the top surface of the triangular columnar box so that the step direction of the corrugated board is substantially perpendicular to the inclined plate.

The triangular shape, which is the planar shape of the triangular columnar box, is generally a right-angled triangle, but it need not be a right angle depending on the shape of the container and the shape of the bottom case.
What is essential is that two of the three surfaces forming the peripheral surface of the triangular columnar box contact the side surface of the bottom case. Normally, the shape is a right-angled isosceles triangle, but in this case, since the storage body rotates and cannot be reliably supported, it is necessary to provide a separate rotation preventing member. For this reason, if the triangular columnar box body is formed into a right-angled isosceles triangle, it can be held while being prevented from rotating.

As the anti-rotation member, a member made of corrugated cardboard in a cylindrical shape may be interposed between the container and the side plate of the bottom case to prevent the container from rotating. . The anti-rotation member may be provided separately, or may be integrally formed with the triangular prismatic box body.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of a packing pedestal 1 according to the present invention, in which the dryer D is supported and mounted when the dryer D is packed. This packing base 1 is
It is composed of a tray-shaped bottom case 2 having an opened upper part of the box body, and a triangular columnar box body 3 arranged at four corners inside the bottom case 2. Each triangular columnar box body 3 is a box-shaped body formed by bending a corrugated cardboard, and the hypotenuse plate 4 forming the hypotenuse thereof is brought into contact with the corner portion of the base of the dryer D to support it. It was done.

The triangular columnar box 3 may be simply installed at the four corners of the bottom case 2, but it may be attached to the bottom plate 5 or the side plate 6 of the bottom case 2 with an adhesive or the like, or may be inserted into the bottom plate 5. The piece 7 may be provided, and the insertion piece 7 may be fixed by inserting it into the insertion hole 8 provided in the bottom surface portion of the triangular columnar box body 3. FIG. 2 shows a state in which the drier D is placed on the packing pedestal 1 and the drier D is placed on the bottom case 2 and is arranged in the lateral direction by the triangular column-shaped boxes 3 arranged at the four corners. Movement is prevented. However, in this case, since the triangular columnar box body 3 is an isosceles right triangle, the dryer D may rotate. Therefore, rotation of the dryer D is prevented by fitting the separate rotation preventing member 9 between the dryer D and the side plate 6 of the bottom case 2.

As shown in FIG. 3, when the packing base 1 is used for packing, the dryer D is fitted between the triangular boxes 3 of the bottom case 2 to be supported and placed thereon, and then the corrugated cardboard is inserted from above. It is packaged by covering it with a cover 11 made of plastic and banding the cover 11 and the pedestal 1. The rotation stopping member 9 may be integrally formed with the triangular columnar box body 3 as shown in FIGS. In this example, the whirl-stop member 9 is provided on only one side, but it may be extended on both sides.

As shown in FIG. 5, if a triangular columnar box 3 having an isosceles right triangle is used as a means for preventing the rotation of the storage body, the rotation of the storage body can be prevented without providing the rotation stopping member 9. Motion can be prevented. Of course, also in this case, the rotation stopping member 9 may be provided separately or integrally to surely prevent the rotation.

FIG. 6 shows another embodiment of the packing pedestal 1 according to the present invention, in which a shock absorber 10 is provided inside the bottom case 2, and the triangular prismatic box 3 is placed on the shock absorber 10. It was made to let. This cushioning body 10 has a structure in which side plates on both sides are each bent in a U shape and two square cylinders are arranged side by side, and an insertion hole 8 for fixing the triangular prismatic box body 3 is provided on the upper surface. Has been drilled. That is, the insertion piece 7 is projected from the bottom of the triangular columnar box body 3, and the insertion piece 7 is inserted into the insertion hole 8 and fixed. When the storage body has legs, for example, a hole may be formed in a portion indicated by a dotted line in the drawing, and the leg may be inserted into the hole.

[0018]

As described above, in the packaging pedestal according to the present invention, the triangular columnar box bodies are arranged at the four corners of the bottom case having an open top, and the corner portion of the storage body is provided on the hypotenuse plate of the triangular columnar box body. With the structure of abutting against each other, the product can be protected by the high cushioning performance of the triangular prismatic box body, and the stored product also has a corner portion with stable strength, so that damage is reduced. In addition, since the corners of the base of the container are held in line contact, it is possible to pack the container without damaging the operating part or the glass surface of the container without damaging the cushioning material. Since it has a structure that holds only the corner portions of the above, it can be applied to products of all forms very easily.

Further, since the structure is simple, it is possible to easily cope with the automation of the assembly, the efficiency of the assembly can be improved, and since all the members are made of corrugated cardboard, it is possible to expand. Since it can be stored and transported in a stored state, the storage space is small and the transportation cost and the storage cost are low. In addition, there is no problem in the treatment after use, and it has an extremely excellent effect on the environment.
