Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a storage case capable of stably storing a plurality of flat storage items and a three-dimensional storage item having a constant thickness at the same time.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Heretofore, various cases have been proposed in which a synthetic resin plate, cardboard or the like is used to assemble into a box shape to accommodate flat objects such as documents, pamphlets, and printed photographs. Generally, when assembling these storage cases, when connecting the plates constituting the box body to each other, a glue allowance portion is continuously provided to each plate, and the plates are attached with an adhesive or the like, or joined by heat welding. And constitutes a storage part. However, when these adhesives are used, or when they are joined by heat welding or the like, the manufacturing cost increases and a great deal of labor is required for manufacturing.

Therefore, the present applicant previously proposed a simple assembling type storage case in utility model registration No. 3017878. However, although this storage case was suitable for organizing and storing only flat storage items such as documents,
When a three-dimensional storage object such as a writing instrument or an eyeglass case is stored at the same time as a flat storage object, the three-dimensional storage is not provided in the storage section of the storage case because there is no suitable holding mechanism for it. There was a risk that objects would move freely and accidentally jump out when carrying a case. Therefore, there has been a demand for a storage case that can store a plurality of flat storage items and at the same time can store a relatively small but three-dimensional storage item in a stable holding state.

For example, a new photographic system called an advanced photo system has been proposed in recent years, but this new photographic system requires the storage case as described above. First of all, this new photographic system is explained by taking a picture using a small new film instead of the conventional 35 mm film and a camera adapted to this, and the film is stored in a special cartridge and From the loading of the camera to the developing process after photographing, all the processes are performed with the film accommodated in the cartridge.

That is, the negative film after development is not stored in a negative sheet and returned as in the conventional case, but is returned to the customer in a state of being stored in the film cartridge in a long length again. At this time, since the customer cannot directly check the negative film as in the past, the "index print", in which all the images shown on the film are printed on photographic paper, is attached to the cartridge, and the customer uses this index. You will see the prints and place an order for additional prints.

In addition, when simultaneous printing is designated or when an additional order is ordered at a later date, a large number of print photographs are also returned. With this new photo system, you can take panorama, high-definition, and postcards in any of three sizes at any time when you take a photo.
Printed photos have a mixture of these sizes.

[0007]

As described above, in the new photographic system, "index print" or a large number of print photographs and film cartridges are always in a one-to-one correspondence, and so-called minilabs and DPE agent stores The storage case as described above is desired both when the product is returned and when the customer arranges and stores it at each home or the like. That is, a plurality of flat storage items (in the above example, a large number of print photographs and index prints) and three-dimensional storage items (corresponding to a film cartridge) can be stored at the same time, and the film cartridge is It is a storage case that is stably held so as not to accidentally pop out.

Further, as described above, the customer needs to refer to the index print to confirm the content of the negative film in the film cartridge, so that the index print can be held separately so that it can be immediately viewed at any time. It is preferable to do so. Further, since such a storage case is handed to a customer as a service item from a DPE agent or the like, it is desirable to keep the manufacturing cost as low as possible.

Incidentally, these circumstances are the same even in the case where documents, pamphlets and the like are stored as flat storage items, and writing instruments, eyeglass cases and the like are stored as three-dimensional storage items.

[0010]

In view of the above circumstances, the present applicant has solved the above conventional problems by the following means. That is, the side plate and the folded plate are continuously provided on the left and right of the rear plate, and the bottom plate and the front plate are continuously provided at the lower edge of the rear plate.
A top plate and a lid plate are connected to the upper edge of the back plate, and a locking slit for inserting and locking the locking tongue provided on the front plate is formed in the folding plate, and the front plate is covered. A lid stop slit for inserting and locking the lid stop tongue provided on the plate is provided so that the partition tongue can be erected upright to one side of the back plate of the storage case that can be assembled in a box shape. At the same time, a means of providing a holding tongue on the cover plate is adopted.

The storage case of the present invention having the above structure is
The assembly is the same as that described in Utility Model Registration No. 3017878 described above, but the partition tongue is erected inside the case after assembly to partition the storage portion, and the three-dimensional storage item is divided into three-dimensional storage items. And one of the side plates can be elastically held.

A plurality of flat objects can be accommodated in the other of the accommodating portions, and a desired one piece is locked to a holding tongue provided on the lid plate as needed to open the lid plate. Just open it and you will be able to see its contents.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION An embodiment of a storage case according to the present invention will be described below with reference to a case where a film cartridge, an index print, and a print photograph in the new photographic system are stored. FIG. 1 is a development view of a storage case according to the present invention, in which 1 is a back plate,
Reference numerals 2 and 2 are side plates connected to both sides of the back plate 1 so as to be bendable via folding lines 3, and 4 and 4 are connected to the outside of the side plates 2 and 2 so as to be bendable via folding lines 3. It is a folded plate installed. Further, 5 is a bottom plate connected to the lower edge of the back plate 1 via a fold line 3, and 6 is a lower plate connected to the lower edge of the bottom plate 5 further via a fold line 3 It is a face plate. Further, 7 is a top plate which is foldably connected to the upper edge of the back plate 1 via a fold line 3, and 8 is a lid which is foldably connected to the upper edge of the top plate 7 via a fold line 3 further. It is a plate.

The folding plate 4 is provided with a locking slit 10 for inserting and locking the locking tongues 9, 9 provided at the left and right edges of the front plate 6, and is provided at the center of the upper edge of the front plate 6. Has a lid stop slit 12 for inserting and locking a lid stop tongue piece 11 provided at the center of the upper edge of the cover plate 8. The above-mentioned configuration of this storage case is almost the same as the configuration of the storage case disclosed in Utility Model Registration No. 3017878, which was previously registered by the applicant.

Further, the partition tongue piece 1 is brought close to one side of the back plate 1.
3 is provided so that it can stand upright inside the assembled main storage case to partition the storage part described below, and the restoring elastic force of the storage part between the partition tongue piece 13 and one side plate 2 causes the film cartridge 14 to move. It is possible to sandwich. Further, a holding tongue piece 15 is provided on the lid plate 8 so that, for example, an index print 16 can be held on the back side of the lid plate 8 (see FIG. 2).

The storage case having the above-mentioned structure can be integrally molded by pressing a synthetic resin sheet such as polypropylene, but the material is not limited to this. Further, the partitioning tongue piece 13 and the holding tongue piece 15 can be provided by attaching separately molded tongue pieces to the portions, but as shown in the drawing, the back plate 1 or the lid plate 8 is directly cut away. If configured, it can be configured at the same time when the entire case is obtained from the sheet by pressing or the like as described above,
It can be manufactured at very low cost.

Next, the case of assembling this storage case to actually store the film cartridge, the print photograph, etc. will be described (see FIG. 2). First, the side plates 2 and 2 and the folding plates 4 and 4 on both sides of the back plate 1 are respectively bent inward along the fold line 3, and the bottom plate 5 and the front plate 6 are also bent upward through the fold line 3, Lay on the folding plates 4 and 4. Next, the locking tongues 9 and 9 of the front plate 6 are inserted into the locking slits 10 and 10 provided in the corresponding folding plates 4 and 4 from the front upper side to form the storage portion 17 of the storage case. Since the folding plates 4 and the front plate 6 are made of a synthetic resin material, they have an appropriate resilience, so that the folding plates 4 and 4 can be opened in the left-right direction and the front plate 6 can be opened in the downward direction. However, since the locking tongues 9 and 9 are inserted into the locking slits 10 and 10 from the upper front, the locking tongues 9 and 9 have different directions in which the forces act. , 9 does not come out carelessly.

Next, the top plate 7 and the cover plate 8 are superposed on the front plate 6 through the fold line 3, and the cover stop tongues 11 are provided on the front plate 6 from the lower front to the upper side. 12
When it is inserted and locked, the storage portion 17 is closed, and it can be carried and stored as a storage case. In this case, the elastic force of the material causes the lid plate 8 to open upward and the front plate 6 to open downward, similar to the above. It is possible to securely close the lid without accidentally releasing the locking of the lid stopping tongue piece 11 when trying to enter the lid stopping slit 12.

The film cartridge 14 and the index print 1 are placed in the storage case assembled in this manner.
6 、 Printed photos 18 etc. are stored, but first,
The index print 16 slightly raises and holds the upper and lower holding tongue pieces 15 and 15 on the back surface of the lid plate 8.
Normally, the lid plate 8 is locked upward so that the print surface can be viewed with the lid plate 8 open upward. However, when the storage case is made of a transparent material, the lid plate 8 is closed. It is also possible to lock the print surface of the index print 16 so that the print surface contacts the inside of the cover plate so that the print surface can be seen through the cover plate 8.

Further, in the film cartridge 14, the partition tongue piece 13 is erected inside the storage case and the storage portion 1
7 is divided and accommodated in a gap formed between the side plate 2 and the side plate 2. The partitioning tongue piece 13 acts to press the film cartridge 14 toward the side plate 2 by its elastic force. 14 is securely held without rattling. Due to its size, it is possible to store two or more film cartridges. Further, by raising the partitioning tongue piece 13 to form the window 13a on the back plate, the film cartridge can be inserted from the window 13a. It is possible to visually recognize the presence or absence of information and the information displayed on the surface.

On the other hand, it is possible to store a plurality of print photographs in the other portion of the storage portion at the time of simultaneous printing or when an additional order is ordered at a later date. Since the print photograph is returned in a state in which the photographs of the three sizes are mixed, it is preferable that the storage portion has a size capable of storing at least the panoramic size print photograph having the largest width.

Thus, the customer who receives the book storage case storing the print photographs and the like can arrange and store the book case as it is, as it is in a box shape having a unified size. It is possible. In addition, at that time, a heading or a title is described or attached to the side surface plate or the upper surface plate of the present storage case, which makes it easier to organize.

The storage case according to the present invention is not limited to use in the new photographic system as described above. For example, a document can be stored in one of the storage portions and the partition tongue can be raised. A writing instrument or the like may be locked in the gap, and a piece of paper on which notes or information, such as special notes or essential matters, are referred to at any time may be locked on the back surface of the cover plate as necessary. That is, when it is necessary to store a flat storage item and a three-dimensional storage item at the same time, the present invention can be widely used.

[0024]

As described above, in the storage case according to the present invention, the sheet can be appropriately bent to form a thick storage portion only by engaging the locking tongue and the locking slit.
Since the partition tongue and the holding tongue can arbitrarily and fixedly hold flat and three-dimensional storage items, anyone can easily assemble and a multifunctional storage case can be provided at low cost. It is a thing.

Further, when not in use, it can be stored and transported easily by unfolding it without assembling it, and after assembling it will be a box of uniform size, so that photos, documents, etc. can be efficiently stored. It is an excellent invention that can be beautifully organized and stored.

Particularly when used in a new photographic system, the index print can be locked on the back surface of the cover plate, so that the contents can be confirmed at a glance, and the film cartridge to be stored together is also separated by the tongue piece. ,
It can be stably stored, and the risk of dissipation is reduced.
