Technical field

The present invention relates to a packaging container for packaging a rolled body, for example, a resin film represented by a wrap film, paper, aluminum foil, or the like.

Background art

Conventionally, containers for wrapping various types of wrap films are known, but most of them are made of cardboard, and a container body for storing a wrap film wound in a roll shape and an integral part of the container body. And a lid provided in a specific manner. Generally, a cutter for cutting the wrap film drawn from the container is attached to the back of the front wall of the lid.

When using this type of container, lift the lid to expose the tip of the wrap film. Then, after pulling out the leading end of the film with a finger and pulling it out, the lid is closed and the wrapped film that has been pulled out is cut with a cutter.

By the way, after cutting the wrap film, the tip of the wrap film remaining in the container is located between the front wall of the lid and the front wall of the container body, but the front wall surface of the container body is smooth. As a result, the entire front end of the film may be in close contact with the front wall of the container body.

When the front end of the film comes into close contact with the front wall of the container body, it becomes difficult to pinch the front end of the film with a finger. In particular, it is difficult for the elderly and the visually impaired to even locate the leading edge of the film. Therefore, there is a problem that it takes time to draw out the wrap film.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a packaging container that allows a packaged object such as a wrap film to be easily pulled out.

Disclosure of the invention In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a container body for storing a packaged object such as a wrap film wound in a roll shape, and a container body connected to a top edge of a rear wall of the container body so as to be rotatable. In a packaging container having a cover body, at least one notch is formed at the top edge of the front wall of the container body.

In this configuration, if the lid is opened and the top edge of the front wall of the container body is exposed, a packaged object such as a wrap film covering the cutout formed on the top edge is gripped with a finger. When the packaged object is pulled as it is, the tip can be easily peeled off from the front wall of the container body.

This notch is preferably provided at the longitudinal center of the top edge of the front wall of the container body. In this position, the position for gripping the packaged object is located at the center in the width direction of the packaged object, and it is possible to suppress the generation of wrinkles on one side.

Further, the present invention is particularly effective when a cutter for cutting the packaged object is provided at the front edge of the front wall of the lid. This is because, in the case of such a container, a wrapped object such as a wrap film is more likely to be pressed against and adhere to the front wall of the container body.

These and other features and advantages of the present invention will become apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art upon reading the following detailed description, with reference to the accompanying drawings.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURES

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing one embodiment of a packaging container according to the present invention, and is a view showing a state in which a lid is opened.

FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing a closed state of the container of FIG.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. In this specification, the terms “up” and “down” mean upper and lower in the position shown in the drawings.

1 and 2 are perspective views showing a container for packaging a wrap film according to the present invention. FIG. 1 is a view showing a cover open state, and FIG. 2 is a view showing a cover closed state. The illustrated container 10 is made of a piece of cardboard, preferably coated cardboard, and is a container body for storing a wrap film 14 wound in a roll around a cylindrical paper tube 12. 16 and a lid 18 integrally connected to the container body 16. The entire shape of the container 10 in the closed state has a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape.

The upper part of the container body 16 is opened as an opening for pulling out the wrap film 14. The lid 18 extends continuously from the top edge of the rear wall 20 of the container main body 16, is rotatable with respect to the container main body 16, and covers the opening of the container main body 16. It is configured to be able to. On the back surface of the front wall of the lid 18 (hereinafter referred to as “lid front wall”) 22, a saw blade-shaped force cutter 24 for cutting the drawn wrap film 14 is attached. In the illustrated embodiment, the front edge of the lid front wall 22 has a V-shape, and the cutter 24 has a V-shape according to the shape. In the case of the container 10 employing such a V-shaped cutter 24, as shown in Fig. 2, the right hand is used to hold the leading end of the film, and the left thumb is applied to the center of the lid front wall 22. Holding the container 10 with the left hand in the folded state and twisting the container 10 forward, that is, in the direction of arrow A, is the most efficient method of cutting the wrap film 14. Although not shown, before the start of use, an opening piece is continuously connected to the lid front wall 22 through a perforation, and the front wall of the container body 16 (hereinafter referred to as the “main body front wall”). It is bonded to the surface of 26. The opened piece seals the container 10 to prevent the blade of the cutter 24 from being exposed. In use, the opening pieces are removed. An adhesive layer 28 for preventing the wrap film 14 from rewinding is provided on the surface of the main body front wall 26. The adhesive layer 28 is formed at a position covered by the lid front wall 22 in the closed state so that the front end of the film can be detachably held immediately after the wrap film 14 is cut. In the container 10 of the illustrated embodiment, since the wrap film 14 is cut while pressing the central portion of the lid front wall 22, the adhesive layer 28 may be provided at least in the central portion of the main body front wall 26. preferable. A notch 32 is formed at the top edge 30 of the main body front wall 26, that is, at the free edge with which the lid 18 contacts in the closed state, in the center in the longitudinal direction. The notch 32 can be of any suitable size, but if the notch 32 is excessively large, the container 10 itself is made fragile, and the thumb is used to cut the front wall 2 2 of the lid. When the central part of the cover is pressed down, the front wall 22 of the lid cannot be sufficiently supported, and the function of the adhesive layer 28 becomes small as described above. Is relatively small enough to fit a fingertip. Specifically, the depth is preferably about 3 to 7 ram and the width is about 20 to 40 mm.

Next, the operation of the container 10 when the wrap film 14 is pulled out and cut in the above configuration will be described. The state before the wrap film 14 is pulled out is the state immediately after the wrap film 14 is cut. In this state, the lid is closed, and the tip of the wrap film 14 is disposed between the main body front wall 26 and the lid front wall 22.

When pulling out the wrap film 14 in this state, usually, the lid 18 is slightly lifted, the edge of the wrap film 14 is picked, and the desired length may be drawn.

However, immediately after the wrap film 14 has been cut, the leading end of the wrap film 14 is in contact with and held by the adhesive layer 28 of the front wall 26 of the main body. Often adheres to the smooth surface of the front wall 26. In such a case, it is difficult to grasp the tip of the wrap film 14 and it is difficult to find the position of the edge itself.

In such a close contact state, the lid 18 is opened widely as shown in FIG. 1 to expose the top edge 30 of the front wall 26 of the main body. In this state, the bent portion of the wrap film 14 covering the notch 32 formed on the top edge 30 can be easily picked with a finger, and the wrap film can be easily lifted upward. The leading end of 14 is peeled off from the adhesive layer 28 and the front wall 26 of the main body.After that, the lid 18 is lightly closed, and the front end wall 26 is held in the same manner as when the front end is gripped. Almost right angle Pull out the wrap film 14 in the desired direction. At this time, since the notch 32 is located at the center in the longitudinal direction of the top edge 30, the notch 32 has a center in the width direction of the wrap film 14, so that one side of the wrap film 14 is provided. The adverse effect that wrinkles are caused is less likely to occur. Then, as shown in FIG. 2, the lid 18 is closed tightly, the thumb of the hand holding the container 10 is pressed against the center of the lid front wall 22, and the container 10 is twisted forward. The wrap film 14 is cut by the cutter 24.

As described above, the preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail, but it goes without saying that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments.

For example, in the above embodiment, the cutter is attached to the front wall of the lid, but the present invention is also applicable to a container having the cutter attached to the main body. The notch is not limited to a single point, but may be provided at a plurality of points.

Further, the object to be packaged by the container according to the present invention may be not only a wrap film but also other resin films, paper, aluminum foil, or the like.

Industrial applicability

As described above, according to the present invention, even when the tip of the packaged object such as a wrap film is in close contact with the surface of the front wall of the container, the tip can be easily grasped and pulled out. It becomes possible. In particular, it is effective for situations where it is difficult to find the position of the edge of the packaged object or for the visually impaired.

When a cutter is attached to the front wall of the lid, the front wall of the lid is pressed against the front wall of the main unit together with the object to be packaged. However, the present invention is particularly effective for such a type of packaging container because it has the effect of being easy to grasp.
