Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a container for transporting mainly vegetables and fruits.

Containers made of synthetic resin have been known for carrying vegetables and fruits, but these containers are disposable after one use, so by making the containers thin, was lowering the cost of

If the container is made thin like this, its strength will be weakened, so it may be possible to strengthen it by providing ribs with a rectangular cross section.
When the ribs have a rectangular cross-section, there is a problem in that vegetables and fruit may hit the corners of the ribs, which have a rectangular cross-section, and be damaged, thereby losing the value of the contents as a product.

For this reason, in the past, it was common to not provide the inner surface of the container, especially the inner surface of the bottom, and the interior was flat.

However, if you put vegetables or fruits inside (especially the bottom)
If the container is flat, there is a problem that ventilation is poor and the freshness of the contents decreases.

The present invention was devised in view of the above-mentioned drawbacks of the conventional technology, and its purpose is to be able to reinforce the bottom ribs despite the thin walls, and to have the cross-sectional shape of the bottom ribs face upward. By making the cross section convexly curved,
To provide a container for transportation which prevents contents such as vegetables and fruits from being damaged by the bottom ribs even if the bottom ribs protrude inside and provides sufficient ventilation.

The present invention will be explained in detail below using examples.

The container body 1 is made of synthetic resin and has a thin wall (approximately 1.3 mm).

The container main body 1 has a cross-sectional shape in which the diameter is small at the bottom and becomes slightly larger towards the top, and vertical ribs 5 extending upward and downward are provided on the front, rear, left and right side walls 4 of the container main body 1, respectively. It is.

The vertical rib 5 is a convexly curved portion of the side wall 4 inward.On the inside of the container body 1, it becomes a convexly curved portion 6 with a substantially semicircular cross section, or with a corner portion curved in a large radius shape, and on the outside. The vertical rib 5 has a concave curved section 7 with a substantially semicircular cross section or a corner section curved into a large radius, and the vertical rib 5 has a shape that is wide at the bottom and becomes wider toward the top. doing.

Further, the vertical ribs 5 provided on the front and rear side walls 4 are opposed to each other, and the vertical ribs 5 provided on the left and right side walls 4 are opposed to each other.

Here, another container body 1 can be fitted into the container body 1 from above, and in this case, the convex curved portion 6 of the vertical rib 5 of the lower container body 1 is fitted into the upper container body 1. The concave curved portion 7 of the vertical rib 5 is fitted into the vertical rib 5.

The bottom part 2 of the container body 1 is provided with a bottom rib 3 extending in the front-rear direction.

The bottom rib 3 is a convex curved portion of the bottom portion 2 of the container body 1 so as to have an upwardly arcuate cross section.

Here, each bottom rib 3 in the front-back direction is continuous with the lower end of each longitudinal rib 5 facing in the front-back direction, and the bottom rib 3 in the left-right direction is continuous with the lower end of each vertical rib 5 facing in the left-right direction. It is something.

A large number of holes 8 are provided in the side wall 4 and bottom 2 of the container body 1.

In the illustrated embodiment, the hole 8 provided in the side wall 4 is relatively large enough to prevent stored items from falling out, but the hole 8 provided in the bottom 2 is larger than the hole 8 provided in the side wall 4. Of the holes 8 provided in the bottom portion 2, the holes 8 provided in a portion other than the bottom rib 3 are arranged in a grid pattern.

9 in the figure is the tsuba. However, there is okra inside the container body 1.
It is used as a disposable container for storing snow peas, other vegetables A, fruits, etc.

In this case, a part of the vegetables A and fruits are placed on the bottom rib 3, and a slight gap B is formed between the bottom part 2 and the vegetables A and fruits, so that the hole at the bottom is blocked by the vegetables and fruits. This ensures ventilation and prevents vegetables and fruits from losing their freshness during transportation.

In the present invention, as described above, the bottom of the thin container body made of synthetic resin is provided with bottom ribs that curve upward in an arcuate cross-section in the front-back and left-right directions. However, it can be reinforced by the bottom rib, and even though the bottom rib protrudes upward from the bottom, the cross-sectional shape of the bottom rib is arc-shaped, so it is possible to store things such as vegetables and fruits inside. The corners of the bottom ribs prevent stored items such as vegetables and fruits from being damaged and there is no risk of reducing the commercial value of the stored items, and stored items such as vegetables and fruits can be placed on the bottom ribs. Therefore, there is an advantage that a gap is created between the bottom and the stored items, ensuring ventilation and keeping the stored items fresh.
