Description

Fruit packaging and its manufacturing method

The present invention relates to a fruit packaging device and a method for manufacturing the same, and more particularly, to a fruit packaging device and a method for manufacturing a fruit packaging device that can significantly increase the number of production of the fruit packaging and packaging to facilitate long-term storage of fruit packaging. .

Typically, fruits such as peaches, apples, pears, etc., when they collide with each other or are subject to external impact, easily decay, and the value of the product decreases. As one example, in the past, the fruit was individually inserted into the net-shaped buffer packaging material, but the above method has a problem in that workability is remarkably deteriorated because the process is cumbersome, such as opening the packaging material and inserting the fruit therein. In addition, there is a disadvantage in that the packaging cost is expensive because a special extrusion molding machine is required to manufacture the net packing material.

In order to improve the above problems, a packaging material in the form of a disposable bowl has been developed. Bowl-type packaging material is easy to wrap, on the other hand, the air circulation is bad and there is no drain hole for draining the water generated on the fruit surface has caused a problem of deteriorating the fruitability of the fruit over time. In more detail, fruit is a living thing and must be delivered to consumers quickly from the place of production to maintain freshness. To this end, in remote areas, the fruit is refrigerated and delivered to the destination. However, refrigerated fruits are displayed to be exposed to the air when they reach their destination, so water caused by indoor and outdoor temperature differences is generated on the fruit surface. This bite causes the surface of the fruit to be wiped out, so it has to be wiped out quickly or discharged, but the conventional fruit wrapper only considers the appearance, so that the water was not good, the water often accumulated on the floor, the problem of rotting fruit. In addition, the bowl-type packaging material does not wrap the entire fruit, but only to protect the lower portion, so that a separate buffer material was required to stack.

1 is a view illustrating a sheet in which a plurality of packaging materials are patterned in a process of manufacturing a conventional bowl-shaped packaging material. As shown in the figure, since the bowl-shaped packaging material 1 is patterned circularly on the sheet, a large amount of loss of the sheet occurs during the cutting process. For example, as shown in FIG. 1, the spare loss A generated when the circular patterns are in contact with each other, and the design loss a generated by the internal design of the circular pattern are generated. These losses (A, a) was a factor that substantially increases the manufacturing cost of the packaging material.

The present invention was conceived to solve the above problems, and has an object of providing a fruit packaging that can simplify the packaging operation while having a beautiful structure and easy to drain and air circulation. .

It is another object of the present invention to provide a fruit packaging method for improving the productivity of individual fruit packaging per sheet.

In order to achieve the above object, the fruit packaging device of the present invention is formed in the drain hole and the base supporting the base of the fruit, extending from the base to be gradually inclined to extend from the body portion and the body portion to support the side of the fruit It includes four wings extending symmetrically to form a floor and valley with the same radius of curvature, wherein the floor and valley are formed to be point-symmetrical with respect to the valley-floor boundary point.

Preferably, the body portion is provided with a plurality of ribs on the concentric circles to maintain the shape firmly, and has a guide groove to smoothly bend or unfold the wing portion at the boundary point of the outer peripheral surface extending wing portion. The vane also has ribs on the same circumference to prevent retention and sag of the shape.

According to another aspect of the invention, (a) extending from the circumference of the body portion and the body portion to form a floor and a valley having the same radius of curvature, the floor and the valley is formed in a point symmetry around the bone-floor boundary point Designing a fruit wrapper pattern comprising four wings on the sheet, wherein the floor top of one wrapper pattern overlaps the valley-floor boundary point of another neighboring wrapper pattern, and at the same time, the goal of the one wrapper pattern Designing a plurality of fruit packaging patterns such that a floor boundary point overlaps with a floor top point of the neighboring other packaging patterns, (b) cutting the designed fruit packaging pattern, and (C) the cut fruit. Provided is a method for producing a fruit wrapper comprising pressing and shaping the pattern of the wrapper.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described in detail a fruit packaging and a method of manufacturing the same according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Prior to this, terms or words used in the specification and claims should not be construed as having a conventional or dictionary meaning, and the inventors should properly explain the concept of terms in order to best explain their own invention. Based on the principle that can be defined, it should be interpreted as meaning and concept corresponding to the technical idea of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments described in the specification and the drawings shown in the drawings are only the most preferred embodiment of the present invention and do not represent all of the technical idea of the present invention, various modifications that can be replaced at the time of the present application It should be understood that there may be equivalents and variations.

Figure 2 is a perspective view of a fruit packaging according to an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 3 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line II-II of Figure 2, Figure 4 is a plan view of FIG.

2 to 4, the fruit packaging device 2 of the present invention is made of a soft synthetic resin that can mitigate the external shock. Preferably, a foam sheet made of polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, polyurethane, or the like may be employed, but a non-foamed sheet may be appropriately laminated according to the packaged object.

The fruit packaging device of the present invention includes a base 10, a body portion 20 extending from the base 10, and a plurality of wings 30 extending from the body portion 20.

The base 10 is for mounting the bottom of the fruit to be packaged, the bottom is provided with a drain hole 12 for air circulation and water draining. In addition, the bottom surface of the base 10 is formed to be inclined so that the water drops flowing down from the top, and the step 14 is formed so that water does not accumulate around the drain hole 12. The base 10 is generally formed in a circular shape so as to easily hold spherical fruits, but other polygons such as ellipses, squares, and hexagons are possible.

The body portion 20 forms a space therein to be accommodated. To this end, the body portion 20 is inclined while gradually expanding radially from the base 10. That is, it has the tapered inclined surface 22 of the groove shape as a whole. Preferably, a plurality of ribs 24 are formed on the inclined surface 22 of the body portion 20 on concentric circles. The ribs 24 are intended to reinforce the strength of the fruit packaging device 2 which is easily damaged by external force. As shown in FIG. 3, since the ribs 24 formed in the body portion 20 have a stepped embossing shape, the side portions of the fruit to be placed are placed in any one of the plurality of ribs 24 depending on the size. . At this time, even when a part of the fruit is in contact with the base 10, as described above, since the drain hole 12 forms the step 14 with the bottom surface of the base 10, the fruit does not come into contact with water. Air circulation is also facilitated.

The wing portion 30 is formed from a plurality of symmetrically extending outward from the body portion 20. The wing portion 30 is to wrap the upper portion when the package is accommodated in the body portion 20, preferably four are installed. Each of the wings 31 to 34 has a convex upward shape, and the ends are rounded so as not to damage the packaged object.

Specifically, each of the wings (31-34) have the same radius of curvature to each other, the radius (R ₁₎ of the bone (31a ~ 34a) to form with the adjacent wings each wing floor (31b ~ 34b) radius (R ₂ Same as). In addition, since each of the valleys 31a to 34a and the floors 31b to 34b mutually point-symmetric around the floor-gol boundary point P, as a result, the wing part 30 surrounding the body part 20 is consequently. Exactly four are formed. This remarkably improves the number of fruit wrappers produced per unit sheet in the method of manufacturing a fruit wrapper described later.

In addition, a rib 36 is formed on the same circumference to give an aesthetic sense near the center of the wing portion 30, and the rib 36 prevents the wing portion 30 from being easily bent and at the same time prevents sagging. In addition, a guide groove 38 is formed on the same circumference of the body portion 20 so as to smoothly bend or unfold the wing portion 30 at the boundary point where the wing portion 30 extends.

Then, an embodiment of using the fruit packaging device according to the present invention having the configuration as described above will be described.

5a and 5b is a view showing an embodiment of a fruit packaging according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 5A, first, the fruit packaging device 2 having the wings 30 unfolded is provided and turned upside down. In this state, when the user presses the fruit 3 in the direction of the arrow B with an appropriate force, the body portion 20 is turned upside down in the opposite direction, for example, a yaw shape by its own elastic force, and concave up. The wing portion 30 is shrunk inwardly to surround the upper portion of the fruit 3 (see FIG. 5B).

On the contrary, when taking out the fruit from the fruit packaging 2, the wing part 30 may be flipped manually.

According to the present embodiment, in the state in which the fruit 3 is packaged, that is, in the state in which the wing part 30 is retracted, the packing tool surrounds the whole fruit 3, so that transportation is very convenient. In particular, when the individual wing 30 is placed in the bone portion of the adjacent fruit wrapper to be box-packed to overlap each other, the occupied space of the fruit wrapper is reduced as a whole, it is possible to put more fruits in the box.

In addition, even if the wing 30 of the fruit packaging (2) is displayed in the folded state, the fruit packaging (20) of the present invention is excellent in the air circulation and water drainage, it is possible to store the long-term tube of fruit.

Hereinafter, a method of manufacturing the aforementioned fruit packaging device 2 will be described.

First, the fruit wrapper is patterned on the sheet (step 1). Figure 6 is a view showing a patterned sheet of fruit packaging according to an embodiment of the present invention, referring to the body portion having a plurality of concentric circles, a plurality of fruit packaging pattern formed around the four wings 40 is periodically drawn while connecting on a sheet.

Looking in more detail, Figure 6 is a synthetic resin sheet of a real size 110 × 80 cm, when the fruit packaging according to the present invention having a diameter of 12 cm on the sheet can be 104 pieces. However, when the same size fruit packaging material is manufactured in a conventional circular shape, the number of possible packing materials per sheet is only 60 as shown in FIG. 1. The reason is that the fruit wrapper of the present invention has the same radius of curvature and the point symmetry around the valley-floor boundary point P, while the valley and the floor of the wing portion have the same curvature radius. ) Overlaps with the valley-floor boundary point P of the neighboring other paver pattern 42, and the valley-floor boundary point P of the one paver pattern 41 is the neighboring other paver pattern 42. It is because it may overlap with the floor top point 42a of the. Therefore, the sheet piece C which is discarded unnecessarily can be minimized, and the productivity of the fruit packaging 2 will be raised significantly.

Next, the fruit packaging pattern 40 designed on the sheet is cut (step 2). The cutting process can be employed in various ways, but preferably can be cut continuously using a punching machine suitable for mass production. In addition, in this step, the drain hole formed in the base may be previously drilled.

Finally, by pressing the cut fruit packaging pattern 40 to form a fruit packaging (step 3). Various methods may be employed as the pressure molding method, but a vacuum molding method having a low cost and a very high productivity is preferable. The vacuum forming method is a method of heating and softening a sheet and then suctioning it in a vacuum to form a predetermined shape, and since it is a known technique, a detailed description thereof is omitted. In this step, the rib may be formed concentrically on the above-described body portion, or may be formed together with the rib on the wing portion.

As mentioned above, although this invention was demonstrated by the limited embodiment and drawing, this invention is not limited by this and is within the equal range of a common technical idea in the technical field to which this invention belongs, and a claim to be described below. Of course, various modifications and variations are possible.

According to the fruit packaging device of the present invention and a method for producing the same, the following effects are obtained.

First, since drain holes are formed on the bottom to facilitate drainage and air circulation, it is easy to store fruits for a long time.

Second, since the wing portion is automatically folded inward when the fruit is placed, the packaging operation is easy, there is an effect to improve the productivity.

Third, because the appearance is beautiful but the number of individual fruit packaging produced per sheet is significantly increased, the packaging cost can be reduced.

Fourth, even in the case of box-packing the fruit, if the wings of the fruit wrapper are piled zigzag so as to be located in the valley of the adjacent fruit wrapper, the space occupied by the fruit wrapper in the box can be reduced. You can add more fruit to your overall transportation costs.
