Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a transportation and display container for packaged products.
More particularly, the present invention relates to an open compartment box-shaped container having an integral compartment panel and a ceiling panel with a downwardly foldable front flap having means for locking and restraining the container. [Prior Art and Problems] Many containers used for both transportation and display are known in the past. For example, U.S. Pat. A display folding container is described for bottles and jars that are formed. The container has a panel with openings formed to accommodate the top and bottom ends of the bottles to be displayed. There are 196 similar display containers.
Canadian Patent No. 829134, registered on December 9, 1999
It is described in Book I. This patent shows individual product corrugation poles in the form of retaining end panels that serve to accommodate the products therein. Also, a combination of transport container and display box was discovered on October 1, 1977.
It is described in US Pat. No. 4,053,101, filed on 1st. In this case, the partition part is placed in the container before it is closed, and the container is converted into a display box by separating the lid part therefrom. Other conventional containers are intended to form packages that securely contain cylindrical articles. For example, February 1972! U.S. Patent No. 3642, registered on
No. 125 shows a conveying corrugated board formed from a single corrugated blank, which has an outer side with support flaps that are folded inward to lock the upper end of the cylindrical article to be conveyed. It has a ceiling panel. However, with any of these prior art techniques, there are still problems in effectively utilizing a single container for both transporting and displaying packaged products. That is, in conventional containers, a choice must first be made between proper support and protection for the product to be transported, or proper display of such product in an unaltered container.
Suitable product support, suitable display geometry, and divisibility into two or more divided containers (each with similar support and display characteristics) without the need for additional inner packs or changes to the container. It is not possible to form containers with do. Furthermore, containers with adequate open display areas require additional transport protection and/or packaging into larger containers.

[Purpose of the invention]

The aim of the invention is to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks. Another object of the invention is to provide a container which is formed from a single blank material and which, when assembled, can be used individually or in a single arrangement for both transporting and displaying packaged products. It's about doing. Another object of the present invention is to provide a transport and display container which properly supports the products and expands the display area of the contained products with good stacking stability of the containers. Furthermore, it is an object of the present invention to enlarge the display area of products contained in containers with good product support and good stacking stability, each with similar proper display, support and stacking stability characteristics. To provide a transport and display container which can be divided into two or more divided containers. It is also an object of the present invention to form and pack with an automatic machine;
The object of the present invention is to provide a transportation/display container that does not require additional changes for display purposes. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION To achieve the above objects, the present invention provides an open partition with a high back panel, a low 0 back panel and an open side panel connecting the +'+ii side panel and the back panel. The container according to the invention has an integral compartment flap extending between the back panel and the front panel and being flush with the back panel. are doing. The ceiling panel extends forward from the top edge of the back wall to the front of the container, and has a front flap connected to the front end edge of the ceiling panel that is used to bend downward and has means for engaging and restraining the container. have. [Embodiments] The present invention will be described in detail below based on embodiments shown in the drawings. In each drawing, the same reference numerals represent the same parts. A box-shaped 1111 shipping and display container 12 according to the present invention is shown in FIG. This container 12 is assembled from the blank lO shown in FIG. Blank 10 is formed from a piece of cardboard or fiberboard and is of normal thickness. The blank LO includes a front panel including an outer front panel 20, an inner front panel 2I, a bottom panel 22, a back panel 23 and a ceiling panel 2.
4, and these panels each have folds ll1I7
2.7-3.77, and are bendably connected to each other in a straight line. The front panel is separated by a double fold line 83 between the inner part and the outer L.
*It is divided into J part. The parallel individual fold lines forming the double fold line 83 form the intermediate front flap 6 between the inner panel 21 and the outer panel 2o, as described below.
1.62 are preferably separated from each other by a distance of about twice the wall thickness of the blank material so that they fit snugly. The ceiling panel extension 25 is hinged to the leading edge of the ceiling panel 24 through a fold line 75, and the inward retaining flap 26 is hinged to the leading edge of the ceiling panel extension 25 through a fold line 1J176. The inward flap 26 has a centrally located pupil slit 26a and a plurality of cutouts 26b. These will be explained in detail later. The right and left outer side panels 32, 33 are hinged together via fold lines 71 parallel to both edges 1111 of the bottom panel 22, respectively. The pair of left and right inner side panels 31.34 are integrally connected to the leading edges of the corresponding outer side panels 32.33 via double fold lines 81.82. As can be seen, the inner side panels 31.34 are
During assembly of the container, its bottom edges 31a, 34a interfere with or frictionally engage the bottom panel 22, so that the inner side panels 31.34 and the corresponding outer panels 32.3
It is folded inward so that it is held in surface contact with 3. Double fold line 81. The 82 individual parallel fold lines should be separated by approximately twice the thickness of the blank material, so that the upper edge of the container 1jIJ wall has a smooth surface 35,36. As discussed below in FIGS. 5 and 6, such a smooth upper surface of the side wall of the container is not necessary, but such a smooth surface is preferred for the overall shape of the container and its appeal to customers. . A pair of left and right intermediate front flaps 61 , 62 are each hinged to the front edge of the corresponding outer side panel 32 , 33 via a fold line 72 . A pair of left and right inner side panels 41.42 are attached to the rear edges of the corresponding outer side panels 32.33 through the fold line 73.
are connected together by a hinge. Each inner rear panel 41.42 has a compartment flap 51.52 integrally connected to the leading rear edge via a fold line 74. In an advantageous embodiment, the compartment flap 51.5
2 has cutouts 53, 54 on the leading edge for displaying the product and for accessing the finished container. As shown in the figure, the lowest inclined lines 55 and 56, which are formed as tab parts, can be integrally locked with the slot 21a formed on the front panel 21 in order to increase the rigidity of the container. It is advantageous. Slot 21a extends vertically over substantially the entire height of stacked inner front panel 21 and is approximately twice as wide as the wall thickness of the blank material. In an advantageous embodiment, the compartment flaps 51,52 serve as central bulkheads and 9 as vertical supports for the ceiling panel 24.
The zero section flaps 61 are designed to be in surface contact with each other as shown in FIG. 3 so as to perform two functions.
．． 52 could be spaced apart to form double partitions and double vertical supports, but this would sacrifice effective display and limit the storage capacity of the container. Assembly of the container 512 from the blank 10 includes a series of folding steps. The blank 10 is first cut and scored to form the sectioning flaps 51, 52 which are then folded upwardly along the crease line 74 by 90°, as shown in FIG. The inner back panel 41,42 is similarly folded upwardly by 90° along the fold line 73. The side panels 31.32, 33.34 are then folded 90° inward along parallel fold lines 71, so that the compartment flaps 51.52 come into contact with each other face-to-face as shown in FIG. be done. At the same time, the inner side panels 31.34 have their lower ends 31a. 34a is folded inwardly 180" to frictionally hold the inner side panels 31.34 to the bottom panel 22 and into surface contact with the outer side panels 32.33. A car is just one example of a system in which the inner side panel and the outer side panel are held in surface contact and can be replaced with a container.
As shown in No. 3 IiJ, the double fold line 81.
82 is a smooth upper end surface 35 for double side panels.
36. As is clear from FIGS. 5 and 6, such smooth end surfaces are not the gist of the present invention, but
This smooth surface is suitable for obtaining a good overall container finish shape and quality. Adhesive is then applied to the inner side of the outer fr face panel 23, and then the outer back panel 23 is folded 90° inwardly and upwardly along the fold line 73 and glued to the outer side of the inner back panel 41,42. Ru. At this point, the partially completed container can be loaded from the front or top with packaged product. At this point, whether or not a product is loaded, the front panel with the inner front panel 21 and the outer front panel ZO is folded inwardly and upwardly along the fold line 72.
The binding tabs 55 and 56 of the partition panels 51 and 52 are bent at 0 degrees (0 compartments are inserted into the slots 21M and are locked and locked). It is not always necessary to lock the binding tabs between the panels 51 and 52 and the front panel 21. However, it is suitable to form a lateral support for the compartment panels and to increase the rigidity of the entire container.The inner surfaces of the intermediate front flaps 61.62 are now supplied with adhesive and then these flaps 61.6
A partially completed container is shown in FIG. 3 where the container 2 is folded 90° inward along fold line 1j 172 and glued to the outside surface of the inner front panel 21. It should be noted that the supply of adhesive to the various container elements can be varied to better suit the assembly equipment used. Adhesive is now applied to the outer side of the outer front panel 20 and the intermediate front flap 61,62. The outer front panel 20 is then folded outwardly and downwardly by 18 degrees along the double fold line 83, and the intermediate front flap 61.
It is glued to the outer surface of 62. If the product has not been preloaded, the now partially completed container 12 is top loaded with product. It should be noted that an outer front panel 20 is preferably provided to provide a solid front panel and a sufficient finished shape, but this can be omitted within the scope of the invention. With the product loaded in the container 12, the ceiling panel 24 is bent inward by 90 degrees along the fold line 77, and the ceiling panel extension 25 is bent inward by 90" along the fold line 75, and held inward. The ceiling cover is completed by folding the flap 26 inward about 90° along the fold line 76, in which case the retaining throw/ ) 26 a
The compartment flaps 51,52 in the container are engaged and restrained, and at least some of the products contained in the container 12 are surrounded around the upper end by the cutout 26b. Fold lines 75, 76, and 77 are 1iG during the assembly process.
Perforations are provided to ensure proper bending. Although perforated fold lines are commonly used where precise folding is required, the manner in which the fold lines are formed is not the subject of this invention; the completed container 12 is shown in FIG. The retaining slot 26a serves to restrain the ceiling panel 24 in the closed position, and the notch 2
6b functions to restrain and stabilize the product housed therein. Note that this notch 26b does not impair the successful implementation of the invention, it is only important that the retaining flap 26 restrains the ceiling spring 24 in its closed position. Advantageously, the inward flap 26 has a cutout in the leading edge, which is complementary in shape to the upper end of at least the part of the packaged product in which it is housed.
Its leading edge acts precisely even without a cut-out, so that the inward flap 26 can securely engage the compartment flap and easily abut against the packaged product contained therein. It is also conceivable that the notch 26b constrains the ceiling panel 24 in its closed position by constraining around the upper end of the product accommodated without the slot 26a. In that case, the slot 26a can be omitted or can be made large enough so that it no longer has a restraining effect. When the ceiling panel 24 is restrained in the closed position as described above, it has a movement to accommodate the packaged product and together with the compartment flaps 51, 52 1? The completed container according to the invention (see Figure 4) provides sufficient loading strength to the container for transport and display, and supports the contained product against external carts from all directions. It has a nearly uniform rectangular surface and a sturdy square shape that can be handled like "building blocks" to prepare display and/or transportation carts. Completed containers can be covered with shrink film, elastic wrap, etc. to strengthen them and keep them clean during transportation and handling. Individual containers can then be transported individually or Like pre-assembled displays, they are stacked and transported on pallets. Additionally, the entire stack of containers or pre-assembled displays are conveniently clearly wrapped so that their removal is only required at the retail store. Following handling, the retailer conveniently removes the flap and displays the product in the container as shown in FIG. 0M-like opening, which includes the steps of removing the ceiling panel 24, bending the ceiling panel 24 backwards by 270°, and folding the ceiling panel extension 25 and the inward flap 26 to the underside of the container 12, thereby creating an open partition-shaped display. A partitioned display can be implemented by the perforated fold lines 77 of the blank lO, and the ceiling portion of the container can be easily removed for display purposes. The ceiling panel 24 can be folded back 180 degrees to bind to the support of a multi-tiered display unit. There are many ways to utilize the containers of the present invention for convenient display with minimal handling. The above-mentioned ways are merely examples and are not intended to limit the invention. The actual dimensions of the various elements of the container constructed may be varied to specifically meet packaging requirements, and the relative dimensions of the front and side panels may be such as to form open front and side walls for display. While large front and side panels may be required in some situations to ensure accurate ports for shipping and handling, the front wall and the side walls are left open.As mentioned above, it is not important that the side walls of the container have a smooth top 1111 end surface 35,36 as shown in FIG. The figure shows a container blank of a different embodiment of the invention, the single perforated fold line 181.1

They are almost the same except that they appear as lines 181 and 182. FIG. 6 shows a corrugated pole blank of a different embodiment of the invention having a single side panel 232,233. The blank 200 is assembled in much the same steps as described for blank 10, but the step of folding the inner side walls is clearly omitted. Side panel 2
, 32, 233 are shown in FIG. 6 as having multiple serrations. Such serrations are shown as an example of various ways in which the side edges may be formed into the desired shape, e.g. edge 281.2.
82 is a smooth cut (for example, edges 381, 38 in FIG.
2) and can be shaped non-linearly to form an open display area and a population to the contents of the container. Containers 12 assembled from the illustrated blanks are wrapped for transport and may be transported as a single unit or conveniently stacked in multiple tiers.
As briefly mentioned for the front edges 53.54 of the compartment flaps 51.52, the corresponding tip (front) edges (153 and 151j, 253) of the compartment flaps in other blanks
and 254, 353 and 354) are formed to create a population to the contained product when necessary, thereby providing a suitable display and support for the container ceiling. However, increasing the amount of material cut from compartment flaps does not adversely affect the amount of vertical support provided by such compartment flaps during transportation and display. Figures 7 to 9 to 1 show different embodiments of containers according to the invention that are shaped to be divisible into divided containers. In particular, FIG. 7 shows the inside surface of a container blank 300, which has exactly the same shape as the blank 200 of FIG. However, compartment flap fixing tabs 355, 356 are formed on the lower edges of the compartment flaps 351 and 352, respectively. Also, the side edges 381, 382 are cut smoothly for illustration purposes. The fixing tabs 355 and 356 are inserted into the center slot 321a when the inner front flap 321 is folded upward during the assembling process. is exactly the same except that after entering the throw / ) 321 a it is bent outward 90° and its inner surface is glued to the outer surface of the inner front flap 321 . FIG. 8 shows the partially assembled container 312 with securing tabs 355, 356 adhered to the inner front flap 321 as described above. As shown in FIG. 8, the intermediate front flaps 361, 362 are formed with distal edges that are complementary in shape to the shape of the securing tabs 355, 356, but this is not critical. . However, such complementary shapes
