Abstract
Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to a packing box suitable for a packing photosensitive recording material such as an X-ray film and, more specifically, a packing box for photosensitive recording material in which an opening port can be formed adjacently to an output port for facilitating the photosensitive recording material to be taken out from the output port.
- 2. Description of the Related Art
- In order to facilitate the photosensitive recording material such as the X-ray film to be taken out from the packing box, there is a type in which an
opening port 103 can be formed adjacently to anoutput port 101 as shown inFIG. 6A andFIG. 6B in the related art. - The type shown in
FIG. 6A is formed with alateral zipper 105 in parallel with theoutput port 101 at a position about 10 cm from theoutput port 101 and, when in use, thelateral zipper 105 is torn and then anopening strip 107 is pulled upward from below to enable theopening port 103 to be opened (see JP-A-8-114889). - The type shown in
FIG. 6B is formed withperforated lines 111 respectively at both ends of an upper portion of afront panel 109 which is adjacent to theoutput port 101 in the direction vertical to theoutput port 101 and, when in use, anopening tape 113 is torn first, and then theopening strip 107 is pulled downward from the top to enable theopening port 103 to be opened. - However, in the case of the former type, since the
lateral zipper 105 is long, the large amount of paper powder is generated. When a light-shielding moisture proof bag for storing the photosensitive recording material is electrically charged, the generated paper powder is attached thereto, and is carried into a tray of an imager. When the paper powder is attached to an unexposed film when being mounted to a daylight room, a defect called “blank” may be resulted. - In the case of the latter type, since the
perforated lines 111 also serve as bending lines, if the length of portions to be broken of theperforated lines 111 is too short, the perforated lines may be broken when forming a box or the compression strength is lowered. In contrast, if the length of portions to be broken of theperforated lines 111 is too long, a large opening force is required. In particular, in the case of a wide box, since the distance between theperforated lines 111 is large, it may not be opened successfully unless it is opened in parallel with theperforated lines 111 using both hands. - In view of above-described problems of the packing box in the related art, it is an object of the invention to provide a packing box for photosensitive recording material in which an opening port can be formed easily by pulling an opening strip with one hand and the amount of generation of paper powder at this time is small.
- After having repeated keen examination, the inventors found that the above-described problem can be solved according to the packing box for photosensitive recording material in the invention having a configuration shown below.
- A packing box for photosensitive recording material according to the invention includes a box body of a rectangular shape in cross-section for storing a photosensitive recording material, and a lid portion having a lid top plate and an insertion flap for enabling opening and closing of an output port for the photosensitive recording material and being formed integrally with the box body, wherein two perforated lines including cut portions and non-cut portions arranged alternately are formed from two points at a distance of 50 to 75% of an entire width of the output port toward a bottom portion of the box body so as to approach toward each other at the same angle between 60° and 90°, preferably, between 70° and 80° with respect to an upper side of a front panel on the side of the output port of the front panel of the box body to which the insertion flap comes adjacent when the lid portion is closed, wherein an area surrounded by the two perforated lines and lines connecting between upper ends and between lower ends of the respective perforated lines constitutes a substantially trapezoidal opening strip for forming an opening port for facilitating the photosensitive recording material to be taken out from the output port when the respective perforated lines are broken, wherein the cut portions of the perforated line each include a main line extending in a breaking direction and an introduction line formed so as to open at a starting side of the respective cut portions outward from the breaking direction, and wherein the respective cut portions are arranged such that when an imaginary line vertical to the upper side of the front panel is drawn from a terminal of the main line to the cut portion located immediately below, the imaginary line passes through a center area of the introduction line out of three equally divided parts of the cut portion immediately below (first mode).
- In the invention shown above, the packing box for photosensitive recording material is formed of a corrugated board (second mode).
- In the invention described above, flutes of the corrugated board are formed in parallel with the upper side of the front panel, and the positions of the corresponding cut portions of the two perforated lines may be shifted in the vertical direction toward the upper side of the front panel by an amount corresponding to one third to two third, more preferably, a half a pitch of the flutes of the corrugated board (third mode).
- In the invention described above, the length of the non-cut portion of the respective perforated lines may be reduced on the side closer to an upper side of the output port and increased on the side closer to a bottom portion thereof (fourth mode).
- In the invention described above, beginning ends of the two perforated lines located on the upper side of the front panel are rounded sides thereof (fifth mode).
- In the invention described above, the upper side of the front panel is cut into fine waveforms (sixth mode)
- In the invention described above, lines are tooled from a surface opposite from a printed surface of the packing box for photosensitive recording material and the box is formed by valley bending the lines (seventh mode).
- According to the first mode, since a sufficient force for breaking the non-cut portions of the perforated lines is efficiently applied to the two perforated lines only by pinching a point at a center of the opening strip and pulling the same downward with fingers, the two perforated lines can be broken easily with one hand. Since the total length of the two perforated lines is relatively short, the amount of generation of paper powder at the time of breakage can be suppressed.
- According to the second mode, the packing box for photosensitive recording material superior in strength and light-shielding property can be provided.
- According to the third mode, since the portions which can easily be broken and the portions which can hardly be broken of the two perforated lines on the corrugated board are broken in the equalized manner, variations in an opening force can be reduced.
- According to the fourth mode, since the length of the non-cut portion of the respective perforated lines is short on the side closer to the output port and long on the side closer to the bottom portion, the perforated lines which can be cut easily at the beginning of cutting, and can be cut straight to the end when it is started to be cut once are, realized.
- According to the fifth mode, an operator is prevented from being injured on his/her hand by a pointed edge when he/she opens the opening strip.
- According to the sixth mode, the operator is prevented from being injured on his/her hand by a cut edge of the corrugated board.
- According to the seventh mode, variation in box dimension and abnormalities such as clog of products or faulty insertion of the insertion flap in an automatic filling machine can be prevented when forming the packing box by bending along the lines.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an entire packing box for photosensitive recording material (hereinafter referred to as packing box) to which the present invention is applied in the closed state;FIG. 2A is an extension plan view of the packing box of a side opening type andFIG. 2B is an extension plan view of the packing box of a vertically opening type;FIG. 3A is an enlarged drawing of a periphery of an opening strip in the closed state andFIG. 3B is an enlarged drawing of the periphery of the opening strip in the opened state;FIGS. 4A and B illustrate enlarged drawings of a perforated line; andFIG. 5 is an explanatory drawing showing a state in which the left and right perforated lines are shifted in the vertical direction. In the following description, upper, lower, left and right of the packing box are based on apacking box 1 inFIG. 1 . - The
packing box 1 in the present invention mainly includes abox body 5 that accommodates a photosensitive recording material M tight-sealed in aninner bag 3 and has a rectangular shape in cross-section having a longitudinal side and a short side. Thebox body 5 is formed at an upper portion thereof with anoutput port 7 for the photosensitive recording material M in the opened state, and is closed by alid portion 9 which can be opened and closed in the closed state. Thelid portion 9 includes a lidtop plate 11 and aninsertion flap 13 continuing therefrom formed integrally with thebox body 5. For example, thepacking box 1 is formed by assembling anextension plan view 15 of a side opening type as showingFIG. 2A or anextension plan view 15 of a vertically opening type as shown inFIG. 2B . A chain line represents a valley fold line, a chain double-dashed line represents a mountain fold line, and a solid line in the extension plan view represents a breaking line inFIG. 2A andFIG. 2B . Thepacking box 1 is formed of micro-flute corrugated board such as E-flute (the number of corrugation is about 94/300 mm) or F-flute (the number of corrugation is about 120/300 mm), and the flutes extends in the direction designated byreference numeral 17 inFIG. 2A andFIG. 2B , that is, the flutes extends in parallel with an upper side of afront panel 21 described later, and the direction designated byreference numeral 19 corresponds to the direction of paper grain of a liner. - As shown in
FIG. 1 , a plane of thebox body 5 on the side where theinsertion flap 13 comes adjacent thereto when thelid portion 9 is closed is afront panel 21, and aback panel 23 is provided so as to oppose thefront panel 21.Side panels 25 are provided at both ends between thefront panel 21 and theback panel 23, and abottom panel 27 is provided at a bottom of thebox body 5. - Two
perforated lines output port 7 of thefront panel 21 from two points at a distance of 50 to 75% of anentire width 29 of theoutput port 7 toward a bottom surface of thebox body 5. The twoperforated lines upper side 35 of thefront panel 21. The angle in this embodiment employs 75°. - In this embodiment, the
perforated lines cut portions 37 andnon-cut portions 39 arranged alternately. A substantially trapezoidal area surrounded by the twoperforated lines upper side 35 and ahinge 40 of the mountain fold constitute anopening strip 41, so that anopening port 43 is formed by opening theopening strip 41 when the respectiveperforated lines output port 7. A notchedportion 55 is formed at a center of theupper side 35 of thefront panel 21 for facilitating a finger to hold theinsertion flap 13 when opening thelid portion 9. - The
cut portions 37 of the respectiveperforated lines main line 45 extending in abreading direction 44 shown inFIGS. 4A, 4B andintroduction lines 47 each formed so as to open at a starting side of the respectiveperforated lines 31, 33 (the side closer to the output port 7) outward from the breaking direction. The positional relation between the respectiveadjacent cut portions 37 is, as shown inFIGS. 4A, 4B , such that when animaginary line 59 vertical to theupper side 35 of thefront panel 21 is drawn from a terminal (an end closer to the bottom panel 27) of themain line 45 of thecut portion 37 located on an upper side to theintroduction line 47 immediately below, the vertical line passes through acenter area 49 of theintroduction line 47 out of three equally divided parts thereof. - The length of the
non-cut portion 39 of the respectiveperforated lines 31, 33 (i.e. the length of the imaginary line 59) may be all the same as shown inFIG. 4A or may be such that the length of thenon-cut portion 39 is reduced on the side closer to an upper side of theoutput port 7 and of anon-cut portion 39′ is increased on the side closer to a bottom portion thereof as shown inFIG. 4B . For example, in a case in which six pairs of thecut portion 37 and thenon-cut portion 39 are provided as in the embodiment shown inFIG. 4B , it is also possible to set the length of the threenon-cut portions 39 located closer to theoutput port 7 to 3 mm, and the length of the remainingnon-cut portions 39′ to 3.5 mm or, although not shown, to employ a configuration in which the length of thenon-cut portions 39 is increased gradually in sequence from the side closer to theoutput port 7. - The operation to open the
opening strip 41 is none other than the principle of leverage with the notchedportion 55 as a power point, thehinge 40 as a supporting point, and thenon-cut portion 39 as a working point. When it starts to open, since the working point is located immediately inside the power point, a force applied to the non-cut portion is not amplified. However, at the end of opening, the working point is moved to a point immediately outside the supporting point, and hence thenon-cut portion 39 can be broken to the end easily only by applying a small force to the power point. - In the
packing box 1, theinsertion flap 13 is inserted under the threenon-cut portions 39 on the side closer to theoutput port 7 in the unopened state, even when a load is applied to thefront panel 21 in the vertical direction, or in the case in which thepacking box 1 is roughly treated, thenon-cut portions 39 of theperforated lines non-cut portions 39′ is increased, the force required for the opening end portion is not increased. In this arrangement, the perforated line which can be easily cut at the beginning of cutting, can be cut straight to the end when it is stated to be cut once, and is strong is realized. - As shown in
FIG. 5 , the positions of therespective cut potions 37 of the twoperforated lines upper side 35 of thefront panel 21 by an amount corresponding to one third to two third, more preferably, a half apitch 51 of the flutes of the corrugated board. In this configuration, the portions which can easily be broken and the portions which can hardly be broken of the twoperforated lines - Subsequently, the configuration of the portions around the
perforated lines perforated lines upper side 35 of thefront panel 21 are rounded on both sides thereof, so that an operator is prevented from being injured by a pointed edge when opening theopening strip 41. At least all the areas of theupper side 35 of thefront panel 21 including the above-described notchedportion 55 are cut intofine waveforms 57 as shown inFIGS. 4A, 4B so as to prevent finger cut by a cut edge of the corrugated board. - The
packing box 1 in the present invention, a back surface of a surface shown in theextension plan view 15 ofFIG. 2A andFIG. 2B is a printed surface, and the lines shown by the chain line and the chain double-dashed line are tooled from the side opposite from the printed surface, that is, the side of the surface shown in theextension plan view 15. Accordingly, when forming the packing box by bending along the line, variations in box dimension and abnormalities such as clog of products or faulty insertion of the insertion flap in an automatic filling machine can be prevented. - The packing box for photosensitive recording material according to the present invention can be utilized widely as a packing box for packing various types of the photosensitive recording materials. In particular, it can be preferably used as a packing box for an X-ray film such as medical film in which developing liquid is not used, such as a laser imager.
