Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention is an article storage case that is assembled into a box shape with one end open by bending a plate-shaped body, and three folded pieces are overlapped on the sides to form an empty item storage case. person in charge, for example V
The present invention relates to a so-called book case type article storage case that is most suitable for application as a storage case for tape cassettes for recording and reproducing devices such as TRs and tape recorders.

FIG. 1 shows a conventional tape cassette 1 for a VTR and a storage case 2 thereof.

This storage case 2 is made by sequentially bending each bent part 4 of a plate-shaped body 3 that has been punched out in advance into the shape shown in FIG. 2 using cardboard or the like, and shown in FIG. As described above, the bent pieces 5 and 6 are glued to the bent piece I so that they do not overlap each other, and are formed into a rectangular parallelepiped box shape with one side open.

By the way, in this conventional storage case 2, the tape cassette 1 is simply inserted and stored through the opening 8, and no means is provided to prevent the stored tape cassette 1 from falling off.

Therefore, if the opening 8 of the storage case 2 is inadvertently turned downward, the tape cassette 1 inside may fall off and cause damage to the tape force set 1.
There was often a danger that the tape cassette 1 would fall onto the user's foot and cause injury.

The present invention has been devised to correct the above-mentioned defects, and includes a button on the article storage case mentioned at the beginning, and one end of the folded piece that is attached to the side surface and folded into the innermost part. By making a notch in the root part and overlapping the three bent pieces three times at one end where the notch is provided, one end of the innermost bent piece is connected to the other bent part. This relates to an article storage case that is assembled in a state where it is bundled further inside.

According to this article storage case, it is possible to reliably hold an article such as a tape cassette to be stored by the next curved portion of the folded piece that is installed at the innermost side.

An embodiment in which the present invention is applied to a storage case for a tape cassette for a VTR will be described below with reference to FIGS. 3 to 9.

First, FIG. 3 shows the punched shape of the plate-like body 11 for forming the storage case.

This plate-like body 11 is made of cardboard or the like and is punched to a size corresponding to the shape of the tape cassette 12 shown by the imaginary line in FIG.

This plate-like body 11 includes a downward plate 13 and a back plate 14.
and the soil plate 15 are arranged in horizontal rows in the left-right direction and are integrally connected via a pair of parallel bending portions (bending lines) 16 and 17.

Furthermore, at both upper and lower edges of these three plates 13, 14, and 15, there are a pair of bent portions (bent portions) in which a row of bent pieces 18, 19 and a side plate 20 are formed in a parallel straight line, respectively. 21, 22, 23 connected in a row.

Almost at the ends of the downward plate 13 and the upper plate 15! A pair of V-shaped notches 24 are provided.

Further, each of the pair of bent pieces 18 is provided with a slit-shaped cut 26 extending in the left-right longitudinal direction at the base of the end on the side where the bent piece 19 is provided.

In FIG. 3, the width t1 in the left and right longitudinal direction of the pair of bent pieces 19 is the upper and lower sides of the ends 18a of the pair of bent pieces 18 provided with the notches 26, respectively, as shown in FIG. The width t2 in the direction is equal to or slightly smaller than ma.

The bent portions 16, 17°2L22 of this plate-like body 11
, 23 are sequentially bent and predetermined portions are glued to assemble the storage case 27.

An example of the assembly order of the plate-like body 11 will now be explained with reference to FIGS. 4 to 7.

At this time, the plate-like body 11 can be assembled independently of the tape cassette 12, but normally the tape cassette 12 is placed on the top of the plate-like body 11 as shown by the imaginary line in FIG. In this state, bend it and glue it.
A method is adopted in which the tape cassette 12 is housed in the storage case 27 at the same time as the formation of the storage case 27 is completed.

That is, first, as shown in FIG. 4, a pair of bent pieces 18 are bent at right angles in the direction of arrow A at a pair of bent portions 21, and the pair of bent pieces 18 are stood vertically.

Next, as shown in FIG. 5, bend the top plate 15 and the back plate 14 at right angles in the direction of arrow B at the bent portions 17 and 16, respectively.
The back plate 14 is erected vertically, and the upper plate 15 is stacked on top of the lower plate 13 in parallel.

Next, as shown in FIG. 6, the pair of bent pieces 19 are bent at right angles in the direction of arrow C at the pair of bent portions 22.

Next, as shown in FIG.
Bend the three parts at right angles in the direction of the arrow, and make the fl of these edges.
The i1m plate 20 is stacked vertically on the outside of each bent piece 18°'19.

Finally, the tape cassette 12 is removed from the storage case 27, and then the pair of side plates 20 and each pair of bent pieces 18, 19 are adhered to each other to complete the formation of the storage case 27.

In the storage case 27 formed in this way, as shown in FIG.
That is, at the end 20a of the side plate 20 (on the back plate 14 side), this end 20a, the end 18a of the bent piece 18, and the bent piece 19 are overlapped three times.

The pair of end portions 18a are assembled into the innermost part of the storage case 27, and are bent inward by the end portion 20a of the side plate 20 and the bending piece 19.

According to the storage case 27 formed by the above method, when the tape cassette 12 is stored in the storage case 27, as shown in FIG. The end portions 18a of the pair of folded pieces 18 (that is, the bundle pieces) strongly abut (contact) one end portion of the left and right side surfaces 12a of the tape cassette 12.

This barrier tape cassette 12 is securely held within the storage case 27 by the clamping force of the pair of bundle pieces 18a, and even if, for example, the opening 28 of the storage case 27 is inadvertently turned downward, Inconveniences such as the internal tape cassette 12 falling out unexpectedly can be prevented as much as possible.

Further, as shown in FIG. 8, the longitudinal dimension of the opening 28 of the storage case 27 is configured to be somewhat thick depending on the dimension of the tape cassette 12, so that the tape cassette 12 cannot be inserted into the opening 28. It can be inserted smoothly when starting,
Then, the tape cassette 12 is connected by a pair of bundle parts 18a.
When inserting the tape cassette by pressing one end portion thereof in both left and right directions 12a, a suitable insertion feeling can be obtained, and there is an advantage in use that the completion of insertion of the tape cassette can be reliably recognized.

In this case, since the inter-bundle portion 18a of the bent piece 18 is provided with a relatively gentle slope portion 30 along the tape cassette insertion direction, the tape cassette 12 can be inserted between the pair of inter-bundle portions 18a. It can be inserted smoothly without any hindrance.

Although the present invention has been described above based on one embodiment, the present invention is not limited to this embodiment, and can be further modified based on the technical idea of the present invention.

For example, it is not necessarily necessary to provide a pair of inter-bundle portions 18a, and only one of the bent pieces 18 of -Jl has a cut 2.
6 may be provided, and the interbundle piece 18a may be provided only on one side.

In this case, it will be held between the inter-bundle piece 18a and the other bent piece 18 which is the side plate, and the clamping force will be relatively weak compared to the case where a pair of inter-bundle pieces 18a are provided. can do.

In this way, by selecting whether to provide the bundle portions 18a only on one side or to provide a pair on both sides, the degree of clamping force can be reduced, and the storage case 27 can be configured according to the purpose. is possible.

Further, the length L of the inter-bundle portion 18a (see FIGS. 8 and 9) may be appropriately adjusted to appropriately determine the crimping area between the inter-bundle portion 18a and the left and right sides 12a of the tape cassette 12. This allows the tape cassette 12 to be held within the storage case 27 with a desired clamping force.

Further, the shape of the bending piece 19 for bending the one end portion 18a of the bending piece 18 toward the inside of the storage case 27 can be varied as long as it does not put strain on the bending parts 21 and 23 when the storage case 27 is assembled. For example, when the width of the bent piece 18 is narrow, the bent piece 32 may be configured in a triangular shape as shown in FIG. 10.

Further, the present invention can also be applied outside the tape cassette storage case.

As described above, the present invention has one end of the folded piece that is incorporated in the innermost part of the three folded pieces stacked on top of each other on the side surface of the article storage case protruded more inward than the other folded parts. It is something that

Therefore, although the structure is extremely simple and it is technically easy to manufacture, the articles to be stored are reliably held by one end of the bent piece bent inside the article storage case. It is possible to prevent items from accidentally falling out of the item storage case as much as possible.

When storing folded articles in the article storage case, the insertion (storage) can be started smoothly, and when the insertion (storage) is completed, a moderate insertion feeling can be obtained, thereby making it possible to reliably recognize that the article has been stored. There are advantages that can be achieved.
