Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Industrial field of application) The present invention relates to an article storage box formed by bending a sheet material such as cardboard.

(Prior Art) One of cardboard article storage boxes used for storing grapes
As one, a rectangular bottom plate, four peripheral walls that stand up from the edge of the bottom plate, an inner plate that obliquely falls inside the one peripheral wall from the upper end of the one peripheral wall, and the inner plate is one of the peripheral walls. There is a device including a pair of stoppers for preventing the displacement to the side (Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 63-177215). Each of the stoppers is composed of a bent portion that is bent from the end portion of the inner plate toward the one peripheral wall, and is in contact with a portion inside the one peripheral wall.

In a known article storage box, grapes can be stored by leaning against an inner plate so that the stalks of the grapes face up. This makes it possible to store a large amount of grapes with a bottom plate having a small effective area, compared to the case where the grapes are stored horizontally.
It makes it easy to put in and take out grapes.

(Problem to be solved) However, in the known article storage box, since the stopper is bent from the inner plate, the stopper is deformed so as to overlap the inner plate due to the weight of the grape acting on the inner plate, and as a result, The inclination angle of the inner plate with respect to the bottom plate becomes large. Also, since the connecting portion between the stopper and the inner plate is narrow,
When the weight of the grape acts on the central part of the inner plate, the inner plate is deformed at the central part.

An object of the present invention is to provide an article storage box in which the amount of deformation of the inner plate due to the weight of the stored items is small.

(Solution Means, Actions, and Effects) An article storage box of the present invention comprises a polygonal bottom plate having a plurality of edges, and a plurality of peripheral walls corresponding to the edges, each of which rises from the corresponding edge. Multiple peripheral walls,
An inner plate that extends inside the one peripheral wall from an upper end of the one peripheral wall and defines an inclined surface with respect to the bottom plate, and a corner portion defined by the one peripheral wall and its adjacent peripheral wall. A plurality of stoppers that are arranged in the lower part of the inner plate to prevent the lower portion of the inner plate from being displaced toward the side of the one peripheral wall.

Each stopper used in the present invention comprises a first plate-shaped portion formed by bending a substantially triangular portion of the first peripheral wall on the side of the bottom plate inward at a portion corresponding to the hypotenuse of the triangle, The first portion formed by bending an approximately triangular portion of the adjacent peripheral wall on the bottom plate side inward at a portion corresponding to the hypotenuse of the triangle.
And a second plate-shaped portion integrally connected to the plate-shaped portion.

Grape-like fruits are stored leaning against the inner plate with their stems facing up. The inner plate contacts the second plate-shaped portion of the stopper.

When the weight of the fruit acts on the inner plate, this weight is transmitted from the inner plate to the one peripheral wall through the second plate portion and the first plate portion of the stopper in that order. As a result, the inner plate is prevented from being displaced toward the side of the one peripheral wall.

According to the present invention, the first plate-shaped portion acts as a reinforcing rib for the second plate-shaped portion, so that the second plate-shaped portion is provided with the one peripheral wall even if the weight of fruit acts on the inner plate. The displacement of the inner plate with respect to the bottom plate is reduced. Further, since the second plate-shaped portion and the inner plate are in contact with each other, the contact area between the inner plate and the stopper is wider than that of a known article storage box, and therefore the weight of fruit acts on the central portion of the inner plate. At this time, the amount of deformation of the central portion of the inner plate is small.

The one peripheral wall includes a first wall portion integrally connected to a corresponding edge portion of the bottom plate and an upper edge portion of the inner plate;
A second wall portion that is disposed between the wall portion and the inner plate, the second wall portion being a first plate-shaped portion that is partially bent. .

The adjacent peripheral wall has a third wall portion integrally connected to the corresponding edge portion of the bottom plate, and a fourth wall portion that extends from the upper end portion of the third wall portion to the inside of the third wall portion. A wall portion of which is partially bent to form the second plate-shaped portion,
A fourth wall portion integrally connected to the third wall portion may be provided.

A hole may be formed in a portion of the fourth wall portion corresponding to the hypotenuse of the triangle, and a protrusion that is received in the hole may be formed in the inner plate.

It is preferable to form a notch in the lower end of the stopper into which a finger can be inserted. This allows the stopper to protrude from the corner by folding the box into a box with a finger and pulling the stopper toward the front side.
