Description

The present invention comprises a product package, and more particularly, a box-shaped package main body for containing a product, and a transparent insertion window that closes an opening provided in the package main body, and a thin accessory is attached to the insertion window. The present invention relates to the product package to be presented.

Conventionally, as a product package having a transparent window portion from which the inside product can be observed from the outside, it is generally known that the transparent portion is made of cellophane or a thin transparent synthetic resin plate and is adhered to the box body. ing. On the other hand, as disclosed in, for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2, a box-shaped package main body in which a product is accommodated inside and an opening is provided in a part thereof, and the above-mentioned opening by being inserted into the package main body There is also known a merchandise package including an insertion window (not attached to the main body) for closing the. The insertion window is usually made of a transparent member such as a thin synthetic resin plate.

In this way, if the opening of the package body is inserted and closed by the window, the product does not come out of the package body through the opening. And since the insertion window is transparent, the product in the package body can be observed from the outside through the opening. If the insertion window has a shape that fits tightly into a part of the package body, the insertion window reinforces the package body that is easily deformed due to the opening. You can also

On the other hand, a thin sample (such as an aluminum pouch) or a card may be attached as an accessory to the product box. If you attach the accessory to the outside of the box with adhesive, etc., the accessory may come off or become dirty. Therefore, it is possible to provide a transparent portion in a part of the box and attach a thin sample or card inside the box so that it can be seen from the outside. However, in a box provided with a transparent portion, when the transparent window portion is adhered to the box, attaching or attaching to the inside has a drawback that the step of setting in the box is complicated and inefficient. there were.

Therefore, the inventors of the present invention make a product package consisting of an insertion window in which the main body box and the transparent window portion are not adhered, put a slit in the insertion window portion, attach the accessories, and then set in the box main body, We have found that efficiency can be improved.

On the other hand, in the case of the product package including the main body box and the insertion window as described above, in order to hold the thin accessory in contact with the insertion window made of the thin transparent member, the holding side is thin. It is conceivable to apply a structure in which four linear cuts are provided to the member. Although this structure is well known in the related art, the following description will be made assuming that the accessory is a quadrangle for easy understanding. The four linear cuts should each make an angle of, for example, 45 degrees with respect to the short and long sides of the attached square fitting and surround the area around which the center of the fitting is located. It is installed in the insertion window. The accessory is then inserted into the notch such that the four corners pass outward from the center of the accessory.

Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 3-27944 Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 61-19524

However, the following problems are recognized in the structure in which four linear cuts are inserted and provided in the window. That is, when a thin accessory is attached to the insertion window so as to be in contact with the inner surface of the insertion window, the four corners of the accessory pass through the notches and project to the outside of the insertion window. .. If the four corners of the accessory project outside the insertion window in this way, the tips of the four corners, which are usually at right angles, interfere with the package body side when inserting the insertion window into the package body, and It may make the insertion work difficult. In addition, the tips of the four corners protruding outside the insertion window may hit the hand of a user or the like who holds the product package and give a feeling of strangeness. When inserting the insertion window into the package body and holding the accessory, the former problem does not occur, but the latter problem occurs regardless of the procedure of inserting the insertion window and attaching the accessory. I will get it.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and when a thin accessory is attached to a box-shaped package body, it is visible from the outside of the box and is attached so that it does not peel off, take away, or become dirty. When attaching an item to the inside, make it a box that can be set efficiently without feeling discomfort during work, and when making a product package that has a box-shaped package body and an insertion window as a box that can be set efficiently. In addition, it is an object of the present invention to prevent a part of the accessory held on the inner portion of the insertion window from hitting the hand of a user or the like and causing an uncomfortable feeling or hindering the operation of inserting the insertion window.

The product package according to the present invention is
A box-shaped box having front, rear, left and right side plates, a bottom plate, and an openable and closable lid provided on the upper part, and an opening formed in a part of the side plate to allow external observation of stored products. The package body,
An insertion window made of a transparent member, which is inserted into the package main body from the upper portion of the package main body with the lid opened, and contacts the part of the side plate from the inside of the package main body to close the opening,
A thin accessory held in the part that closes the opening of the insertion window,
A product package consisting of
In the portion of the insertion window that closes the opening, a plurality of incisions that are convex inward are formed,
The accessory is held in the insertion window from the inside of the package body by inserting the peripheral portion into the cut.
It is characterized by that.

The above-mentioned "inwardly convex" means that it is convex toward the center side of the insertion window from the outer edge portion of the portion of the insertion window that closes the opening. Moreover, it is desirable that the number of the plurality of cuts is typically four, three, or the like. Particularly, as described below, when the accessory is a substantially quadrangular shape, four pieces are desirable from the viewpoint of preventing the drop.

Examples of accessories in the product package of the present invention having the above-described configuration include cards in which the usage method of the product housed in the product package, advertisements, and the like, samples of products related to the product, and the like. As an example of the sample, when the product contained in the product package is a cosmetic, for example, the same cosmetics as the cosmetics stored in the product, or related cosmetics different from the cosmetics stored in the product ( Examples thereof include shampoo and rinse).

In addition, print on-demand customized prints (printed with personal name or information, etc.) on a card, or print a design that suits the customer on the spot and attach or attach it to the container. Can also

The above accessories are thin, and are attached so as to be in contact with the inner surface of the insertion window so as not to interfere with the stored products. The above cards are originally of such a thin type. In addition, the above-mentioned cosmetics for trial use are often composed of a thin pouch body containing a cosmetic material. It is desirable that the shape has a substantially quadrangular outer shape, and that the notch is formed at a position where the side portion of the quadrangle is inserted.

Further, in the product package of the present invention having the above configuration, the accessory may have a substantially circular outer shape. In addition, more specifically, the "generally circular shape" means a true circular shape, an elliptical shape, an oval shape, a combined shape thereof, or the like.

Further, in the product package of the present invention having the above configuration,
The package body is tapered at least at the side plate portion where the opening is formed, and the portion of the insertion window that closes the opening is tapered corresponding to the tapered side plate portion. However, the present invention is not limited to this.

The above "corresponding" means that the portion of the insertion window that closes the opening and the portion of the tapered side plate at least partially overlap with each other. The term "substantially closely overlap" means that the two parts have the same shape, but is not limited to this, and the two parts have a shape substantially similar to each other. To do.

Preferable examples of the above-mentioned accessory include a pouch body containing a cosmetic, and a card on which a message for the user of the product is displayed.

In the product package of the present invention, the main body box and the insertion window which is transparent and is not adhered to the main body are configured, and the accessory is attached to the insertion window and then set with the main body, so that the product is efficiently attached inside the main body. Items can be set. Also, by devising the shape of the notch that attaches the accessory to the insertion window, it prevents the accessory from falling, eliminates the discomfort of the part where the accessory is exposed to the outside of the box, and makes the setting work in the box efficient be able to.

That is, a plurality of notches having a shape that is convex inward are formed in a portion of the insertion window that closes the opening of the package body, and the accessory is inserted by inserting its peripheral portion into the notch. Since it is held in the window from the inside of the package body, the part of the accessory that is inserted through the notch and exposed to the outside of the window is the edge portion. In other words, when forming a linear notch in the insertion window and inserting and holding a part of the accessory there as in the past, it is necessary to insert it at the corner of the accessory, If a convex cut is used, the edge of the accessory should be inserted there. In this way, if it is the edge of the accessory that is exposed from the notch to the outside of the insertion window, this exposed part may hit the user's hand and cause discomfort, or interfere with the insertion of the insertion window. Can be prevented.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of a product package 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in the figure, the product package 1 includes, for example, a box-shaped package main body 3 that accommodates two products 2, and a part of the package main body 3 along the inner surface of the front side plate 3a. The insertion window 4 inserted in the insertion window 4 and a thin accessory 5 held by the insertion window 4 in a state of being in contact with a part of the inner surface of the insertion window 4.

FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view showing the state before the product package 1 is assembled by disassembling the elements 3 to 5. Hereinafter, the details of each of the elements 3 to 5 and the assembling of the product package 1 will be described in detail with reference to FIG. The package body 3 is made of, for example, thick paper or thin synthetic resin plate. The package main body 3 includes front, rear, left and right side plates, that is, a front side plate 3a, a rear side plate 3b, a left side plate 3c and a right side plate 3d, a bottom plate 3e, and lid plates 3f, 3g, which form a lid on the upper part of the package body 3. It has 3h and 3i and has a box shape in the assembled state.

Each of the front side plate 3a, the rear side plate 3b, the left side plate 3c, and the right side plate 3d has a tapered shape that becomes thinner from the upper side to the lower side. Here, the terms "upper" and "lower" mean that the side of the bottom plate 3e is "lower" and the side opposite to the bottom plate 3e is "upper" regardless of the posture of the package body 3. Since the front side plate 3a, the rear side plate 3b, the left side plate 3c, and the right side plate 3d are tapered as described above, the entire package body 3 in the assembled state is also tapered in the same manner. Such a tapered package body 3 can give the user an impression that the product 2 fits inside the package body 3 when, for example, the outer shape of the product 2 is tapered.

The cover plates 3f, 3g, 3h, and 3i are continuous with the upper ends of the front side plate 3a, the rear side plate 3b, the left side plate 3c, and the right side plate 3d via a bent portion. These lid plates 3f, 3g, 3h, and 3i are in an open state in which the upper part of the package body 3 is opened when not combined with each other as shown in FIG. The lid plates 3f, 3g, 3h, and 3i are, for example, bent inwardly as in a general paper box, and the lid plate 3g is placed inside so as to cover the top. The lid body 3f is bent inward, and the lid plate 3f is folded inward so as to cover it, and the insertion portion 3j at the tip of the lid plate 3f is inserted into the slit 3k of the lid plate 3g. The lid is closed.

In addition, the bending of the lid plates 3f, 3g, 3h, and 3i should be made substantially at right angles to the front side plate 3a, the rear side plate 3b, the left side plate 3c, and the right side plate 3d that are continuous with each lid plate. Done. Here, the rear side plate 3b is provided with a notch 3m for hanging the package body 3 on, for example, a wall surface of a product sales floor or an exhibition shelf (both not shown).

The bottom plate 3e is not particularly shown in detail, but generally, like the cover plates 3f, 3g, 3h, and 3i, a portion continuous with the front side plate 3a, the rear side plate 3b, the left side plate 3c, and the right side plate 3d is bent, And it is composed by combining. However, the bottom plate 3e may have other configurations.

Further, an opening 3n is provided in a part of the side plate. More specifically, the opening 3n is formed in part of the front side plate 3a, the left side plate 3c, and the right side plate 3d. In order to secure the strength of the assembled package body 3, the opening 3n in the front plate 3a is formed in a portion between the upper and lower ends, leaving a certain amount. The opening 3n extends further outward from the above-mentioned portion of the front side plate 3a and extends to a part of the left side plate 3c and the right side plate 3d. The goods 2 contained in the package body 3 can be observed from the outside through the opening 3n.

Inside the package body 3, a relatively thin insertion window 4 formed using a transparent member such as a vinyl chloride plate is arranged. In this insertion window 4, the lid portion composed of the lid plates 3f, 3g, 3h and 3i is opened as shown in FIG. 2, and the space between these lid plates 3f, 3g, 3h and 3i is changed from above. It is accommodated in the package body 3 by inserting the package body 3 through the bottom.

The insertion window 4 has three parts that are in contact with the inner surfaces of the front side plate 3a, the left side plate 3c, and the right side plate 3d of the package body 3, and the cross-sectional shape when viewed from the top and bottom is a "U" shape. Is. The above-mentioned three portions of the insertion window 4 have a tapered shape corresponding to the front side plate 3a, the left side plate 3c, and the right side plate 3d of the package body 3 and closely overlapping the side plates. More specifically, the above-mentioned three portions of the insertion window 4 have similar shapes to the front side plate 3a, the left side plate 3c, and the right side plate 3d, which are slightly smaller than those.

When the insertion window 4 having the above-described shape is housed inside the package body 3, the package body 3, which originally has a tendency to be deformed due to the opening 3n, is reinforced by the insertion window 4. Deformation is effectively prevented. Further, since the insertion window 4 is formed of a transparent member, even if the insertion window 4 is housed inside the package body 3, the state in which the product 2 can be observed from the outside through the opening 3n is maintained as it is.

After the insertion window 4 is housed inside the package body 3, the lid plates 3f, 3g, 3h, and 3i are closed as shown in FIG. Normally, after the insertion window 4 is housed in the package body 3 in this manner, the product 2 is housed in the package body 3. However, without being limited to this, the insertion window 4 may be housed in the package body 3 after the product 2 is housed in the package body 3.

When the insertion window 4 is housed in the package body 3 as described above, the opening 3n of the package body 3 is closed by the insertion window 4. Therefore, the product 2 does not go out of the package body 3 through the opening 3n.

Further, in the present embodiment, as described above, the front side plate 3a, the rear side plate 3b, the left side plate 3c, and the right side plate 3d of the package body 3 each have a tapered shape that becomes thinner from the top to the bottom. Also in the insertion window 4, three parts respectively contacting the front side plate 3a, the left side plate 3c, and the right side plate 3d of the package body 3 are formed into a tapered shape corresponding to the shape of each side plate. Therefore, when the insertion window 4 is inserted into the package body 3 from above, it is difficult for the two to interfere with each other, and the work of inserting the insertion window 4 is facilitated.

A thin rectangular accessory 5 is held in the insertion window 4. The accessory 5 is, for example, a pouch body containing a cosmetic material. In this embodiment, the product 2 contained in the package body 3 is, for example, a cosmetic product, and the pouch body is a sample of the cosmetic product. That is, the accessory 5 is a pouch body containing the same cosmetics as the cosmetics stored in the product 2 or related cosmetics different from the cosmetics stored in the product 2. It should be noted that this pouch is basically a laminate in which the contents are placed between two sheet materials made of an aluminum sheet or a synthetic resin film, and the peripheral edges of these sheet materials are attached by fusion or the like. Refers to processed products.

The accessory 5 is held from the inside of the package body 3 on the front surface of the insertion window 4, that is, the portion in contact with the front side plate 3 a of the package body 3. The holding of the accessory 5 may be performed before the insertion window 4 is inserted into the package body 3 or after the insertion. The attachment 5 is held in detail as follows. A plurality of notches 4a are formed in a portion of the insertion window 4 that is in contact with the front side plate 3a, as shown in FIG. In the present embodiment, four cuts 4a are formed as an example, and each of the cuts 4a has a shape having a curved portion that is convex inward. More specifically, the curved portion has a shape generally called a mountain shape or a tongue shape. Here, the above-mentioned "inwardly convex" means that it is convex toward the center side of the insertion window 4 from the outer edge portion of the portion that closes the opening 3n of the insertion window 4.

The accessory 5 is held in the insertion window 4 by inserting the respective edge portions 5a from the inside of the package body 3 into the four cutouts 4a of the insertion window 4. FIG. 4 is a sectional view showing a state in which the insertion window 4 holding the accessory 5 is viewed from the right side plate 3d side of the package body 3. Since the thickness of the insertion window 4 and the accessory 5 is exaggerated in FIG. 4, the notch 4a portion of the insertion window 4 is shown as largely protruding toward the product 2 side. However, in reality, the thickness of the insertion window 4 and the accessory 5 is sufficiently smaller than the size of the notch 4a, so that the notch 4a portion does not project to the extent shown in the drawing.

When the accessory 5 is held in the insertion window 4 as described above, the portion of the accessory 5 exposed to the outside of the insertion window 4 becomes the edge portion 5a as shown in FIG. Thus, under the condition that the linear edge 5a is exposed to the outside of the insertion window 4, unlike the case where the four corners of the accessory 5 are exposed, the exposed part of the accessory 5 is different. Can be prevented from touching the hand of a user or the like and giving an uncomfortable feeling, or hindering the work of inserting the insertion window 4 into the package body 3.

In addition, the number of the plurality of notches 4a formed in the insertion window 4 is not limited to four in the present embodiment. That is, the number of the cuts 4a may be two or three or the like. However, in order to prevent the held accessory 5 from coming off the notch 4a and falling off, it is desirable that the number of notches 4a be three or four, and especially when the accessory 5 is a quadrangle. It is particularly desirable to have four.

Further, the shape of the notch 4a that is convex inward is not limited to the shape in this embodiment. That is, the notch 4a may have, for example, a triangular shape that is convex inward. Even if the notch 4a has such a shape, the portion of the accessory 5 exposed to the outside of the insertion window 4 becomes the edge portion 5a thereof as shown in FIG. Therefore, also in that case, as in the present embodiment, it is possible to prevent the exposed portion of the accessory 5 from touching the hand of the user or the like and causing an uncomfortable feeling or hindering the operation of inserting the insertion window 4 into the package body 3. It will be possible.

Moreover, the accessory held in the insertion window 4 is not limited to one, and a plurality of accessories may be held. FIG. 5 shows an embodiment in which a plurality of accessories are held in such a manner. Here, another accessory 6 is held in the insertion window 4 together with the accessory 5 described above. In the present example, the additional accessory 6 is a card on which a message for the user who uses the product 2 is displayed. This message is, for example, an explanatory text related to the use of the product 2 or an advertisement text about the product 2 or another product related thereto. In the example of FIG. 5, the accessory 6 which is such a card is arranged on the front side of the accessory 5, but the accessories 5 and 6 may be arranged in the opposite order.

Further, the shape of the accessory is not limited to the quadrangle in the embodiment described above. For example, as shown in FIG. 6, a generally circular accessory 15 may be held. More specifically, the accessory 15 of this example has an elliptical shape, but other accessories such as a perfect circle, an ellipse, or a combination thereof may be applied. Further, the shape of the accessory may be a polygonal shape other than a quadrangle.

For reference, a front view, a rear view, and a left side view of the assembled product package 1 in which the main parts of the insertion window 4 (parts where the four cuts 4a are provided) are clearly shown. A right side view, a plan view and a bottom view are shown in FIGS. 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12, respectively. 13 and 14 are a front view, a rear view, a left side view, a right side view, a plan view and a bottom view of the assembled product package 1, particularly showing the entire insertion window 4. , FIG. 15, FIG. 16, FIG. 17 and FIG.
