All terms including technical terms and scientific terms used below have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which the present invention belongs. Terms defined in advance are additionally interpreted to have a meaning consistent with the related technical literature and the presently disclosed contents, and are not interpreted in an ideal or very formal sense unless defined.

1 schematically shows an open state of a packing box 1000 according to a first embodiment of the present invention. The structure of the packing box 1000 shown in FIG. 1 is merely for illustrating the present invention, and the present invention is not limited thereto. Therefore, the structure of the packaging box can be variously modified.

As shown in FIG. 1, the packing box 1000 includes a fixing member 10 and a box cover 20. The box cover 20 has an opening surface 203. The fixing member 10 is coupled to the box cover 20 through the opening surface 203. That is, the fixing member 10 may be coupled to the box cover 20 by pushing the fixing member 10 in the direction of the arrow. The fixing member 10 fixes a plurality of articles to be stored (T), for example, toothpaste tube (T), the household goods of the form extending in one direction.

As shown in FIG. 1, the toothpaste tubes T extend in the x-axis direction. The toothpaste tubes T are housed in the box cover 20. Since the toothpaste tubes T accommodated in the box cover 20 are fixed by the fixing member 10, the toothpaste tubes T are arranged side by side in the y-axis direction without being pulled to one side in the box cover 20 and stably received.

As shown in FIG. 1, a plurality of boundary lines 2013 are formed on one surface 201 of the box cover 20. The plurality of boundary lines 2013 divide one surface 201 into a plurality of partition surfaces 2011. Although two boundary lines 2013 are shown in FIG. 1, this is merely to illustrate the present invention, and the present invention is not limited thereto. Thus, the number of borders can be one or more than three.

The plurality of boundary lines 2013 are substantially parallel to each other and extend along the x-axis direction. The plurality of boundary lines 2013 may be actually formed in a linear shape or may be naturally formed as the boundary while the plurality of partition surfaces 2011 meet each other.

As shown in FIG. 1, the partition surfaces 2011 extend in the x-axis direction corresponding to each toothpaste tube T. As shown in FIG. When each of the partition surfaces 2011 includes the same shape as each other, the consumers recognize that the packaging box 1000 bundles a plurality of products in a package form. In practice, however, the box cover 20 is integrally formed and includes only a plurality of toothpaste tubes T only therein.

The fixing member 10 shown in FIG. 1 can be easily formed by bending a sheet material. Therefore, the fixing member 10 is easy to manufacture. The fixing member 10 extends in a direction crossing the longitudinal direction of the toothpaste tube T, that is, the y-axis direction. Accordingly, the fixing member 10 may fix the plurality of toothpaste tubes T arranged side by side along the y-axis direction. Here, since the fixing member 10 may be made of a paper material having a predetermined thickness, the manufacturing cost thereof is low, and the toothpaste tubes T may be easily fixed by folding the fixing member 10.

As shown in FIG. 1, the fixing member 10 includes a first fixing surface 101 and a pair of second fixing surfaces 103. A plurality of openings 1015 are formed in the first fixing surface 101. The plurality of openings 1015 are arranged to be spaced apart from each other along the y-axis direction. Since the toothpaste cap C is inserted into the plurality of openings 1015, the toothpaste tube T may be easily fixed. As a result, it is not necessary to form a partition or the like inside the box cover 20 to separate the toothpaste tubes T from each other. That is, since the toothpaste tubes T are fixed side by side by the plurality of openings 1011, there is no need to install a separate partition wall for separating the toothpaste tubes T from the inside of the box cover 20. . Therefore, since the inner space of the box cover 20 is integrally formed, the structure of the box cover 20 is not complicated, so that the box cover 20 can be easily manufactured.

Meanwhile, the first fixing surface 101 includes boundary lines 1013. Although two boundary lines 1013 are shown in FIG. 1, the number of boundary lines 1013 may be three or more or one depending on the number of toothpaste tubes T accommodated in the packing box 1000. The boundary lines 1013 define the first fixing surface 101. Therefore, when looking at the fixing member 10, it is as if a plurality of identical products are bundled together in a package form.

As shown in FIG. 1, the first fixing surface 101 includes edges 1017 facing each other. The pair of second fixing surfaces 103 are respectively connected to the edges 1017. As shown by the arrow, the pair of second fixing surfaces 103 is inserted and fixed in the box cover 20. Since the pair of second fixing surfaces 103 have a constant elasticity in the + z-axis direction and the -z-axis direction, they are in close contact with the inner surface of the box cover 20. Therefore, the fixing member 10 is stably coupled to the box cover 20.

As shown in FIG. 1, the box cover 20 is integrally formed. Accordingly, when viewed from the outside, three identical toothpaste tubes T are informed that they are stored in the packing box 1000. However, since the three toothpaste tubes T are packaged together instead of individually packaged, packaging costs may be minimized when using the above-described packaging box. Furthermore, since each of the three openings 1015 is located corresponding to each partition surface 2011, consumers can recognize that the same plurality of products are arranged side by side inside the packing box 1000.

In addition, the toothpaste tube T may be laid obliquely and fixed using the opening 1015. As a result, the printed shape on the outer surface of the toothpaste tube (T) can be seen well. Therefore, consumers can easily recognize what the product inside the packaging box 1000 is. Hereinafter, the fixing structure of the above-described toothpaste tube T will be described in more detail with reference to FIG. 2.

FIG. 2 shows a state where the fixing member 10 of FIG. 1 is seen in the x-axis direction.

As shown in FIG. 2, the three openings 1015 are arranged side by side along the y-axis direction. The plurality of toothpaste caps C are inserted into and fixed to the openings 1015. Therefore, the toothpaste tubes T (shown in FIG. 1) may be stably fixed using the fixing member 10.

As shown in FIG. 2, the opening 1015 includes an edge 1017 that surrounds the opening 1015. Edge 1017 is formed in a sawtooth shape. That is, the edge 1017 includes a plurality of protrusions 1017a spaced apart from each other. The plurality of protrusions 1017a are in contact with the toothpaste cap (C) to secure the toothpaste cap (C). The surface of the toothpaste cap C has a plurality of grooves C1 (shown in FIG. 1) formed along the x-axis direction. Accordingly, the plurality of protrusions 1017a may firmly fix the toothpaste cap C while contacting the plurality of grooves C1 (shown in FIG. 1). As a result, the toothpaste tube T (shown in FIG. 1) can be stably stored in the box cover 20. Although not shown in FIG. 2, the toothpaste cap C may be fixed to the edge 1017 by forming a recess in the edge 1017 and forming a protrusion on the surface of the toothpaste cap C, in contrast to the above description.

3 is a view schematically showing an open state of the packing box 2000 according to the second embodiment of the present invention. Since the structure of the packing box 2000 of FIG. 3 is similar to that of the packing box 1000 of FIG. 1, the same reference numerals are used for the same parts, and a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

As shown in FIG. 3, the packing box 2000 includes a fixing member 30 and a box cover 40. The fixing member 30 can be manufactured using resin, for example, plastic. Since the fixing member 30 has a constant thickness, the fixing member 30 is excellent in durability and solid in structure. The box cover 40 includes a fastening member 401 and a cover body 403. The fastening member 401 can be made of plastic such as resin. The cover body 403 may be inserted into the fastening member 401 to firmly couple the fastening member 401 and the cover body 403 to each other. The connection structure of the cover body 403 and the fastening member 401 can be easily understood by those of ordinary skill in the art, and a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

As shown in FIG. 3, the fastening member 401 has a ring shape and surrounds the opening surface 203. 3 shows a fastening member 401 having a rectangular ring shape. The fastening member 401 is coupled to the fixing member 30 to fix the fixing member 30. Therefore, the fastening member 401 is firmly coupled to the fixing member 30. The cover body 403 houses the toothpaste tubes T.

The fixing member 30 includes a first fixing surface 301 and a pair of second fixing surfaces 303. Three concave grooves 3031 are formed in the pair of second fixing surfaces 303. The three concave grooves 3031 are spaced apart from each other and arranged side by side along the y-axis direction. Although three concave grooves 3031 are shown in FIG. 3, this is merely to illustrate the present invention, and the present invention is not limited thereto. Therefore, the number of concave grooves 3031 can be freely changed.

As shown by the dotted lines in FIG. 3, the fastening member 401 includes three convex portions 4011 (shown in dashed lines). The three convex portions 4011 correspond to the three concave grooves 3031 and are arranged side by side along the y-axis direction to be spaced apart from each other. Therefore, the fastening member 401 and the fixing member 30 may be firmly coupled to each other by inserting the three convex portions 4011 into the three concave grooves 3031 along the direction of the arrow. The three concave grooves 3031 and the three convex portions 4011 are formed not only on the upper surface of the fixing member 30 and the fastening member 401 in the + z-axis direction, but also on the lower surface of the -z-axis direction. Therefore, the fixing member 30 can be firmly coupled to the fastening member 401. Hereinafter, the coupling state of the fastening member 401 and the fixing member 30 will be described in more detail with reference to FIG. 4.

4 schematically illustrates a cross-sectional structure of the packaging box 2000 taken along line IV-IV of FIG. 3 after combining the packaging box 2000 of FIG. 3.

As shown in FIG. 4, since the convex portion 4011 is inserted into the concave groove 3031, the fastening member 401 and the fixing member 30 are not separated from each other unless an artificial force is applied from the outside. On the other hand, when an artificial force is applied to the fixing member 30 from the outside in order to use the toothpaste tube T, the fixing member 30 may be twisted and separated from the fastening member 401.

Although not shown in FIG. 4, a plurality of convex portions (not shown) are formed on the pair of second fixing surfaces 303, and a plurality of convex portions (not shown) are formed on the inner surface of the fastening member 401. A plurality of concave grooves (not shown) corresponding to) may be formed. In this case, the fastening member 401 and the fixing member 30 are coupled to each other while the plurality of convex portions are fastened to the plurality of concave grooves. Here, the plurality of convex portions and the plurality of concave portions are arranged side by side spaced apart from each other.

On the other hand, as shown in Figure 4, the opening 3011 formed in the first fixing surface 301 to fix the toothpaste cap (C). Therefore, the toothpaste tube T coupled with the toothpaste cap C is stably received in the cover body 403. A cross section of the opening 3011 cut along the x-axis direction, that is, the longitudinal direction of the toothpaste tube T has a tapered shape. That is, since the toothpaste cap C has a truncated conical shape, the opening 3011 is formed to have a tapered shape in order to grip the toothpaste cap C stably. Therefore, the toothpaste tube T can be stably fixed using the fixing member 30. Here, the diameter d of the opening portion 3011 gradually decreases toward the outside of the packing box 2000. Therefore, since the opening 3011 is designed and used to fit the outer shape of the toothpaste cap C, the toothpaste cap C can be firmly fixed to the opening 3011.

5 schematically shows an open state of the packing box 3000 according to the third embodiment of the present invention. Since the structure of the packing box 3000 of FIG. 5 is similar to that of the packing box 1000 of FIG. 1, the same reference numerals are used for the same parts, and a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

As shown in FIG. 5, the packing box 4000 includes a fixing plate 70. The fixing plate 70 is spaced apart from the fixing member 80. The plate surface 701 of the fixing plate material 70 is substantially parallel with the plate surface 801 of the fixing member 80. Toothpastes T are fitted into and fixed to the plurality of openings 703.

As shown by the dotted arrows of FIG. 5, the fixing plate 70 is accommodated in the inner space S of the box cover 20 to fix the toothpastes T to the inner space S of the box cover 20. Let's do it. Thus, the toothpastes T are firmly fixed without flowing in the box cover 20. As a result, the fixing member 80 coupled to the box cover 20 while fixing the cap C of the toothpastes T may be formed in a simple plate shape.

Here, the area of the plate surface 801 of the fixing member 80, that is, the product of the y-axis length and the z-axis length of the plate surface 801, is the area of the plate surface 701 of the plate 70, that is, the plate 70. It is equal to or more than the product of the length of the y-axis direction and the length of the z-axis direction of the plate surface 701. Here, the area of each of the plate surfaces 701 and 801 means an area including the openings 703 and 803. The fixing member 80 is spread over the outer surface of the box cover 20 or inserted into the box cover 20. When the fixing member 80 spans the outer surface of the box cover 20, the area of the plate surface 801 of the fixing member 80 is larger than the area of the plate surface 701 of the fixing plate material 70. In addition, when the fixing member 80 is inserted into the box cover 20, the area of the plate surface 801 of the fixing member 80 is substantially the same as the area of the plate surface 701 of the fixing plate 70. .

6 schematically shows an open state of the packing box 4000 according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention. Since the structure of the packing box 4000 of FIG. 6 is similar to that of the packing box 1000 of FIG. 5, the same reference numerals are used for the same parts, and a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

As shown in FIG. 6, another fixing plate 72 spaced apart from the fixing plate 70 may be fixed to the toothpastes T. As shown in FIG. Another fixing plate 72 is spaced apart from the fixing plate 70, so that the toothpaste (T) is fixed to the inner space (S) of the box cover 20 so as not to flow.

The box cover 20 includes an opening and closing portion 205. Therefore, the fixing member 82 may be inserted into and fixed in the box cover 20, and then the toothpaste T may be fixed in the box cover 20 by closing the opening and closing portion 205. In this case, since the fixing member 82 should also be inserted into the box cover 20, the area of the plate surface 821 of the fixing member 82 may be equal to or less than the area of the plate surface 701 of the fixing plate 70.

Although the present invention has been described above, it will be readily understood by those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations are possible without departing from the spirit and scope of the claims set out below.
