DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention can easily describe the address and name of a recipient in a table and a letter or message on the back when sending out a small article. The present invention relates to a simple package that can be immediately sent by post if it is attached.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in the case of sending a small article, it is common to put the article and a letter in an envelope and send it to the other party.

[0003] The actual work itself is not so difficult, and for business purposes, the use of envelopes is generally used when shipping products or samples.

[0004] In this case, however, the necessity of sending the goods is required. Therefore, when traveling, friends and family, etc., when there is no particular necessity, suddenly come to mind when they notice. Sending articles and letters in envelopes gives special unexpected emotions to unexpected people, so I feel reluctant to send them casually.

[0005] In such a case, it is common and easy to easily write and send a letter or a recent situation to a postcard of the place where you are traveling. Therefore, in general, goods are often handed directly to the other party as souvenirs, but it is relatively rare to send souvenirs and other goods from a travel destination, regardless of an agreement or a promise.

[0006]

However, postcards are much easier to send than sealed letters. But,
In the case of goods, even if the goods are small,
When you send it, you have to send it along with the goods and the letter, and you cannot send it as a postcard.

Accordingly, the technical problem of the present invention is to pay attention to such a problem and to specially develop a simple package suitable for storing and sending small articles.
An object of the present invention is to make it possible to easily send a small article as if it were a postcard.

[0008]

In this case, either of the two sheets may be the front or back of the postcard.

[0011] As described above, one of the sheets displays a postage stamp entry field, a postal code entry field, a destination entry field, or an address entry field in the same manner as the front side of the postcard. You can fill in the address etc. with the feeling, and the other sheet has ruled lines etc. like the back side of the postcard, so write a message or letter like a postcard,
You can mail souvenirs and other items you bought while traveling, just like a postcard.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, there is provided a simple package in which the bottom sheet according to the first or second aspect is formed by attaching another sheet to one surface of the frame. The bottom sheet can be formed integrally with the frame, but as in claim 3, by attaching a separate sheet to the frame to form the bottom sheet, manufacturing becomes easy and cost is reduced. Down becomes possible.

According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, there is provided a simple package in which the frame according to the first, second or third aspect is formed by combining a plurality of members. The frame body can be formed in a rectangular or other annular shape, but by combining a plurality of members to form an annular frame, material can be saved and cost can be reduced.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, an embodiment will be described as to how the simple package according to the present invention is actually embodied. FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a first embodiment of a simple package according to the present invention, wherein (1) is a diagram showing the surface of a sheet corresponding to an address field of a postcard, and (2) is a diagram of a sheet 2 corresponding to a communication column of a postcard. The figure which shows a surface, (3) is the front view of the frame 3, and (4) is AA sectional drawing of the frame 3. FIG.

In the sheet 1 shown in (1), the postal code field 1a and the stamp pasting field 1b are displayed in advance by printing or the like in the same way as the postcard address field, and the address and name of the destination are written. A blank 1c is provided.

The sheet 2 shown in (2) is similar to the communication section of the postcard, so that a message or letter can be easily written.
The ruled line 2a is displayed in advance by printing or the like.

(3) The frame 3 shown in (4) is punched or molded by synthetic resin molding by a technique such as pressing.
Alternatively, a space 3a is provided in the center by a method such as clipping.
Are formed. As the frame 3, a plate-like material that is light and has a certain degree of rigidity is suitable, and for example, corrugated cardboard, cork, light wood, foamed plastic such as styrofoam, and the like are suitable.

FIG. 2 is a view showing a completed state of the simple package, wherein (1) and (2) are sectional views and (3) is a side view. As shown in (1), for example, the sheet 1 is attached to the frame 3 on one side of the frame 3 as a bottom sheet, and the recess 3a is formed by the bottom sheet 1 and the frame 3. And
With the article 4 inserted therein, the sheet 2 is attached and sealed on the opposite side as shown in (2). This state is represented as (3) in a side view.

As described above, since the article 4 is stored in the space 3a inside the frame 3, it depends on the size of the article.
Needs a thickness T that can accommodate the article 4. Also,
The outer dimensions of the frame 3 and the dimensions of the space 3a are also determined according to the articles to be put inside.

The thickness of the frame 3 is in the range of 2 to 10 mm, and preferably in the range of 3 to 7 mm. When the thickness of the frame 3 is larger than that of the simple package for mailing of the present invention, it is more preferable to use the postcard image rather than the postcard image. It is not desirable because it approaches the image of the parcel

On the other hand, when the thickness is smaller than the above range, the image becomes as close as possible to the image of a postcard, but the space 3a for enclosing articles in a simple package for mailing becomes narrow,
The articles that can be encapsulated will be very limited and depart from the purpose of the present invention.

The vertical and horizontal dimensions of the frame 3 are desirably about the same as or close to those of ordinary postcards, that is, preferably 8 to 18 cm in height and 8 to 13 cm in width.

Examples of the shape of the frame 3 include quadrilaterals such as rectangles, squares, trapezoids, and parallelograms, quadrilaterals with rounded corners, polygons, circles such as perfect circles, ellipses, and oval circles. Any form that does not contradict the object of the present invention and that is recognized as a postal matter may be used. From the image as a postcard, a rectangular shape as shown is preferred as the shape of the frame.

The width W of the bonding surfaces 3b and 3c on both sides of the frame 3
Is sufficient to be able to protect the enclosed article 4 sufficiently and to maintain a taut surface so that the surface of the sheets 1 and 2 can be easily written by writing pressure without unevenness. Any size can be used as long as the strength can be obtained. If the width is too large, the space for enclosing the article is narrowed, which is not preferable. Although it depends on the material of the frame 3 and the sheets 1 and 2, a width of usually 5 to 20 mm is sufficient.

The bottom sheet 1 and the sealing sheet 2 shown in FIG.
Can be manufactured at a low cost with a structure in which both surfaces 3b and 3c of the frame 3 are bonded with an adhesive. An ordinary adhesive can be used for bonding the frame 3 and the sheets 1 and 2, but an adhesive suitable for the frame 3 and the sheets 1 and 2 to be used may be selected and used.

For example, the frame 3 is made of cardboard, sheets 1, 2
If is made of paper, office glue (water-based glue such as starch glue, arabic rubber glue, PVA synthetic glue), acrylic glue, synthetic rubber glue, pressure-sensitive glue for sealing, A double-sided adhesive tape, a heat-sealing adhesive, a peelable adhesive, or the like can be used.

When the frame 3 is made of styrofoam and the sheets 1 and 2 are plastic films, an aqueous office paste cannot be used, but it is effective to use a synthetic rubber adhesive or the like. In short, it suffices that the sealed part is not peeled off during mailing and that the enclosed article can be sufficiently protected.

For the sheets 1 and 2, a normal writing instrument,
For example, the sheet must be writable using a ballpoint pen, a fountain pen, a pencil, a brush, an oil-based felt pen, a water-based felt pen, and the like. Of course, it does not require that all of the writing implements be used. For example, you can write with a ballon or pencil, but with ink and a brush,
Even a sheet that bleeds can be used as the sheet of the present invention.

As the material of the sheets 1 and 2 is applied on the space 3a at the center of the frame 3, a certain strength is required so that the sheets 1 and 2 are not damaged by writing pressure when writing.
Therefore, if paper is used, thick paper is preferred.

Further, from the viewpoint of easy writing, a sheet piece having a certain rigidity is preferable so as not to be uneven. As a material of the sheet piece of the present invention, for example, paper,
Wood, bamboo, plastic, etc. can be used. Paper is preferred as a material for the sheet piece in view of the fact that it can be written using any writing implement, that it is easily available, and that it is economical.

FIG. 1 is a view showing a structure in which the person receiving the simple package of the present invention can take out the article 4 in the recess 3a.
As illustrated in (2), the cutout line 5 is displayed by printing or the like, or a perforation is provided. Therefore, the recipient can open the product from the perforated line 5 or perforation and take out the article 4 inside.

The cut lines 5 and perforations can be provided on the sheet 1 corresponding to the address field of the postcard.
Also, the cutout line 5 and perforations are displayed along the edge of the concave portion 3a inside the frame 3 so that when the sheet 2 is cut, the articles enclosed therein are not damaged.

FIG. 3 shows another embodiment of the sealing side, in which the sheet 2 on the sealing side of the frame 3 has only about half of the upper part previously bonded so that the article 4 can be inserted later. The lower half is pasted with a release paper 6.

Therefore, after purchasing a simple package in such a state by a trader or an individual and inserting the article 4,
The release paper 6 is peeled off, and the sealing sheet 2 is adhered to the adhesive surface below the release paper 6 and sealed.

When the adhesive under the release paper 6 is peelable,
The recipient of the package can open the sheet 2 by peeling off the sheet 2 from one end with a finger, and can take out the article 4 inside.

The type of the article 4 that can be enclosed in the simple package of the present invention is not particularly limited. For example, various souvenirs at a travel destination, and specific examples include a handkerchief, a scarf, Coin purses, business card holders, wall hangings, table centers, medals, accessories (broaches, pendants, earrings, tie pins, etc.), key holders, telephone cards, chocolates and other confectioneries. Of course, the articles 4 enclosed in the simple package include not only souvenirs but also commercial articles such as products and samples.

When the article 4 is sealed in the simple package of the present invention, the article 4 may be directly sealed. However, in order to protect and fix the article, the article 4 may be wrapped in paper or a plastic film before being sealed. Further, in the case of a cloth such as a handkerchief or a scarf, it can be sealed in a plastic film bag, evacuated and evacuated under reduced pressure to reduce the thickness, and then sealed.

FIG. 4 is a view showing another embodiment of the frame.
(1) is a front view of the frame, and (2) is a right side view of a state in which a bottom sheet and a sealing sheet are attached to both surfaces of the frame. In this case, the frame 7 is formed in a frame shape by combining four upper and lower frame members 7a and 7b and left and right frame members 7c and 7d in a ring shape.

When integrally formed as in the frame 3 illustrated in FIG. 1, the material of the space 3a is wasted, but as in the embodiment of FIG. 4, a plurality of members are combined. When the frame 7 is configured, cost reduction can be achieved by saving materials. The frame members 7a, 7b, 7c, 7d may be made of the same material, but different materials may be used in combination, such as styrofoam for the frame members 7a, 7b and cardboard for the frame members 7c, 7d.

FIG. 5 is a sectional view showing another embodiment of the frame. The frames 31 and 32 have an integral frame shape as shown in FIGS. 1 (3) and (4), and the frame member 3 having a predetermined thickness T is realized by overlapping and bonding the two frame members 31 and 32. ing. The materials 31 and 32 to be overlapped may be of the same material or different materials.

For example, two cardboards 31 and 32 each having a thickness of about 3 mm can be overlapped and bonded so that the eyes cross each other.

FIG. 6 is a sectional view showing another embodiment of the simple package of the present invention. The concave portion 3a is formed by integrally molding the bottom sheet 1 and the integral frame 3 with a synthetic resin or the like in advance. I have. Accordingly, the labor for bonding the bottom sheet 1 to the frame 3 is omitted, and the bonding operation is sufficient only when the sealing sheet 2 is attached after the articles are put in the recesses 3a. Note that the sheet 2 corresponding to the communication column in FIG. 1 can be used as the bottom sheet.

As in this embodiment, when one of the sheets 1 or 2 is integrally molded with the frame, if the sheet is not suitable for writing, a paper for writing can be pasted.

After enclosing the article 4 in the simple package,
Since it is not possible to check the goods 4 inside from outside,
For example, in FIG.
It is preferable to display the contents of the enclosed article 4 by attaching a label 8 or the like as in (2). This is suitable for a case where the article 4 is put in a simple package, sealed, and sold by a manufacturer or a souvenir shop.

In order for the article 4 inside to be seen, portions of the sheets 1 or 2 on both sides which do not hinder writing can be made transparent.

In each of the above embodiments, the sheet 1 on the address side may be used as a sealing sheet, and the sheet 2 on the communication column may be used as a bottom sheet. Also, the cutout line 5, perforations, contents display 8, etc. in FIG. 1 (2) may be provided on either sheet.
