Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to a plastic container used for display and sale of foods, etc., and in particular to a display container in which a part of the flange provided around the opening is formed into a handle that can be raised and lowered.

Selling products while they are stored in a display container is extremely convenient as the display container also serves as a packaging container, so it has been widely used in supermarkets and the like.

However, since conventional display containers need to be carried by supporting the bottom of the container, if the contents are heavy compared to the strength of the container, it is extremely difficult to carry them, and they can be stored in a separate shopping basket or the like. There was a need.

Therefore, this invention aims to solve the above problems by providing a handle using the flange of the display container.

This invention will be explained below based on the attached drawings.

The display container shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 is an integrally molded plastic product, and has an outwardly projecting flange 2 formed at the periphery of a rectangular opening of a container body 1.

The fixing portions 3, 3 are left in the center of the opposing long sides of the flange 2, and cuts 4, 3 along the opening periphery are left in the other portions.
4 is formed into a U-shape from the long side to the short side, and the cut 4
, 4 and the outer portion thereof is formed into a U-shaped handle 5, 5.

Each handle 5 has legs 6 on both sides along the long sides of the container body 1 and grips 7 along the short sides, and connects the legs 6 on both sides to the fixed parts 3, 3 in a flexible manner. It is.

It is desirable that the connecting portion be provided with a crease in the width direction of the flange 2 as shown.

Further, in order to increase the strength of the handle 5, it is desirable to form a semi-cylindrical rib 9 extending in the length direction of the handle 5 so as to bulge out below the flange.

As shown in the figure, a delimiter 1 at the boundary between the leg portion 6 and the grip portion 7
0 is provided with a bending crease 11 in the width direction of the flange, and the gripping portion 7
If it is formed so that it can be freely bent with respect to the leg part 6,
As shown in FIG. 3, when the handles 5, 5 are raised up and the gripping portions 7 are brought together, the gripping portion 7 is bent from the fold 11 and the bellows of both gripping portions 7 are brought together.

Therefore, both semi-cylindrical ribs 9 form a cylindrical grip portion, making it easier to hold.

Note that it is preferable to bend the fold 11 in advance to form a folding habit.

If the bent crease 11 as described above is not formed, the bellows of both gripping parts 7 will not match, so the cut edge 12 at the lower edge of the gripping part 7
(See Figure 1) will dig into the pads of the fingers of the person holding it, causing pain.

However, in the case of FIG. 3, since the gripping portion is formed in a cylindrical shape, the cutting edge 12 is less likely to bite into the gripping portion, which has the advantage of being easy to carry.

Further, as shown in FIG. 4, if a bent part 13 is provided between the grip part 7 and the leg part 6, and the grip part 7 is molded so as to be bent diagonally downward with respect to the leg part 6, When the handles 5, 5 are stood up as shown by the chain line, the bellows of the gripping part 7 are aligned,
As mentioned above, it becomes easier to carry.

Note that since the handles 5, 5 are separated from the container body 1 by the cuts 4, 4, the reinforcing effect of the flange 2 is reduced;
As shown in FIG. 2, the reinforcing effect can be achieved by providing the cuts 4, 4 as far outward as possible, forming a narrow flange 14 on the inside thereof, and further forming reinforcing ribs 15 on the flange 14. Can be done.

Furthermore, the container body 1 may be provided with reinforcing ribs as appropriate.

As mentioned above, this invention uses a flange formed around the opening of the container body to provide a handle, so the handle does not get in the way when displaying the product, and when the handle is erected, it is easier to hold the product. It is convenient because it can be carried like a basket.

In addition, by providing the above-mentioned handle with a semi-cylindrical rib in the longitudinal direction that bulges out downward from the flange, and by providing a bent part between the gripping part and both sides of the handle, both handles can be held together. When put together, the gripping parts fit together to form a cylindrical gripping part as a whole, and the gripping part can be carried without causing pain to the fingertips.

Furthermore, since the above-mentioned ribs are provided on the leg portions of the handle, together with the ribs on the gripping portion, there is a reinforcing effect on the entire handle.
