Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an item storage box in which multiple items are stored in a stacked state.
  • the item storage box described in this document has a box-shaped main body consisting of a bottom portion, side portions, and a top portion, and stores a plurality of items (tissue paper) in a stacked state.
  • An outlet for removing the items is formed in the top portion.
  • a plate-shaped inner bottom is provided between the bottom portion and the items. This item storage box is configured so that the bottom can be raised by lifting the inner bottom to a predetermined height from the bottom portion.
  • the bottom can be raised when there are only a few items remaining, making it easier to remove the items from the outlet. Furthermore, the inner bottom makes surface contact with the items, so the items can be stably supported from below.
  • providing a member for raising the bottom (inner bottom) separate from the main body increases the manufacturing costs of the item storage box.
  • the present invention was made in consideration of the above problems, and aims to provide an item storage box that can stably support items when the bottom is raised, without the need for a bottom-raising member separate from the main body.
  • the item storage box is an item storage box in which a plurality of items are stored in a stacked state, and is equipped with a box-shaped main body consisting of a bottom portion, first to fourth side portions, and a top portion, and the main body is characterized by having a first cut line formed on at least one of the bottom portion, the first side portion, and the second side portion facing the first side portion, a second cut line formed on the first side portion, a third cut line formed on the second side portion, a cut portion that becomes a piece separated from the main body when the main body is cut along the first cut line, a first slit portion that is located in the middle of the first side portion and becomes a first slit into which the cut portion can be inserted when the main body is cut along the second cut line, and a second slit portion that is located in the middle of the second side portion and becomes a second slit into which the cut portion can be inserted when the main body is cut along the third cut line.
  • a section portion and first and second slit portions are provided on the main body. From the section portion, a section that is cut off from the main body is obtained. Furthermore, from the first and second slit portions, first and second slits are obtained that are located in the middle of the first and second side portions, respectively, and into which the section can be inserted. By inserting the section into the first and second slits, the section can be stretched from the middle of the first side portion to the middle of the second side portion. Therefore, when there are only a few items remaining, the section can be inserted into the first and second slits so that the item is placed on the section, thereby raising the bottom of the item storage box while allowing the section to come into surface contact with the item.

  • the section 72 can be inserted into the slit 83 and slit 85 so that the item is placed on the section 72, and the bottom of the item storage box 1 can be raised while the section 72 is in surface contact with the item. Therefore, an item storage box 1 that can stably support items when the bottom is raised is realized without providing a bottom-raising member separate from the main body 10.
  • an item storage box In an item storage box, storing as many items as possible is advantageous in terms of keeping the price per item down.
  • the height of the main body In order to increase the number of items that can be stored in one item storage box, the height of the main body must be increased. Normally, when the height of the main body is increased, there is a problem that it becomes difficult to remove items when there are only a few items left. In this regard, with item storage box 1, which can be raised at the bottom, items can be easily removed even when there are only a few items left, so the above problem caused by increasing the height of main body 10 can be solved. Also, by increasing the height of main body 10, a large space can be secured for printing letters or patterns. Furthermore, since used main body 10 becomes garbage, storing a large number of items in one main body 10 also leads to a reduction in garbage.
  • the segment 72 is in a state where it is separated from the main body 10. In this case, the segment 72 can be freely displaced relative to the main body 10, making it easier to insert the segment 72 into the slits 83 and 85.
  • the segment 72 is configured to be parallel to the bottom surface 20 when inserted into the slits 83 and 85. This also contributes to stable support of items in the item storage box 1 after the bottom is raised.
  • Increasing the distance h1 from the bottom surface portion 20 to the slit portion 82 in the height direction of the main body 10 is advantageous in increasing the bottom-raising effect of the item storage box 1. From this perspective, it is preferable that the distance h1 is equal to or greater than 1/2 of the height h0 of the main body 10. On the other hand, if the distance h1 is too large, the amount of items that can be stored in the item storage box 1 after deformation will be extremely small. From this perspective, it is preferable that the distance h1 is equal to or less than 4/5 of the height h0.
  • the distance h2 is equal to or greater than 1/2 of the height h0 of the main body 10.
  • the distance h2 is equal to or less than 4/5 of the height h0.
  • Slit portion 82 and slit portion 84 are formed in a position where they overlap each other in a side view. This makes it easier to position piece 72 inserted into slits 83 and 85 parallel to bottom portion 20.
  • the cut lines 50 are formed only on the bottom surface 20. In this case, the cut lines 50 do not pass through the boundaries between the bottom surface 20 and each of the side surfaces 32, 34, 36, and 38, making it easier to make cuts along the cut lines 50.
  • the cut line 50 is made up of cut portions 51 and 52, as well as cut portions 53 and 54. This allows the cut line 50 for forming the segment 72 to be realized with a simple configuration.
  • the cut portions 51 and 52 are in a straight line. This makes it easy to make cuts along the cut portions 51 and 52.

  • Inner member 320 has perforations 342, 344, and 346 formed as cut lines. Inner member 320 also has fold line 348 (valley fold line). The portion surrounded by perforations 342, 344, 346 and fold line 348 is fold portion 322. Perforations 342 and fold line 348 are formed along straight lines extending horizontally. Perforations 344 and 346 are formed along straight lines extending vertically. Perforation 344 connects one end of perforation 342 to one end of fold line 348.

  • the fold line 348 may be located outside the perforation 332 in a plan view (upper side in Figures 38 and 39). In that case, after the folding portions 312, 322 are folded, the fold of the folding portion 322 will be located outside the opening 314 in a plan view.
  • the folding portion 322 can be folded above the top surface portion 40 along the fold line 348. It is preferable that the fold line 348 has a crease formed in advance so that the folding portion 322 can be easily folded along the fold line 348.
  • the item storage box 4 is used with the folding portion 312 and the folding portion 322 folded upward.
  • the folding portion 312 is folded diagonally upward toward the folding portion 322, and the folding portion 322 is folded diagonally upward toward the folding portion 312. That is, when the item storage box 4 is used, the folding portion 312 and the folding portion 322 are folded diagonally upward. It is preferable that the folding portions 312 and the folding portions 322 contact each other in a state where they are folded diagonally upward (and no item is interposed between the folding portions 312 and 322).
  • the height h32 see FIG.
  • the item (tissue paper 90) can be removed from the item storage box 4 by pulling one end of the item through the removal opening (opening 314).
  • the surface (upper surface 40) forming the outlet is formed by the outer member 310 and the inner member 320.
  • the outer member 310 and the inner member 320 are respectively provided with a bent portion 312 and a bent portion 322 that are bent above the upper surface 40.
  • the bent portion 312 is bent to form an opening 314 that serves as the outlet in the outer member 310.
  • the bent portion 322 is bent to pass through the opening 314 and face the bent portion 312. Therefore, the bent portions 312 and 322 face each other above the outlet (opening 314). This makes it more difficult for dust to enter the interior of the item storage box 4 through the outlet than if such a bent portion were not present. Therefore, an item storage box 4 with a structure that makes it difficult for dust to enter the interior is realized.
  • Another advantage is that because the folded sections 312, 322 face each other above the outlet, items pulled out from the outlet are held by the folded sections 312, 322 and are less likely to fall into the item storage box 4.
  • the bent portion 312 When the item storage box 4 is in use, the bent portion 312 is bent diagonally upward from the top surface 40. In this case, when viewed in a plan view, i.e., from a direction perpendicular to the top surface 40, the bent portion 312 overlaps with part of the outlet. This makes it even more difficult for dust to get in compared to when the bent portion 312 is bent vertically upward from the top surface 40.
  • the path for dust to enter is narrower than when the bent portion 312 is separated from the bent portion 322, making it even more difficult for dust to enter. This is also advantageous in increasing the holding power of the bent portion 312 for holding items.
  • the bent portion 312 and the opening 314 are equal in shape and size.
  • the outer member 310 can be made from a single sheet of paper with no cutouts, making it easy to form the outer member 310.
  • the bent portion 322 When the item storage box 4 is in use, the bent portion 322 is bent diagonally upward from the top surface portion 40. In this case, in a plan view, the bent portion 322 overlaps at least a portion of the outlet. This makes it even more difficult for dust to get in compared to when the bent portion 322 is bent vertically upward from the top surface portion 40.
  • the path for dust to enter is narrower than when the bent portion 322 is separated from the bent portion 312, making it even more difficult for dust to enter. This is also advantageous in increasing the holding power of the bent portion 322 for holding items.
  • the upper surface portion 40 has a double structure consisting of an outer member 310 and an inner member 320. This increases the strength of the upper surface portion 40.
  • the sum of the length d33 of the bent portion 312 and the length d35 of the bent portion 322 in the vertical direction can be made greater than the length of the opening 314 (equal to the length d33 of the bent portion 312). This is advantageous in preventing the intrusion of dust.
  • the folding portions 312 and 322 have a horizontally long shape. In this case, the shape of the outlet also becomes horizontally long, making it easier to take out items.
  • the length d31 of the bent portion 312 is too large, the distance from the removal opening to the end of the top surface portion 40 in the horizontal direction will be small, and the strength of the top surface portion 40 may become insufficient. From this perspective, it is preferable that the length d31 is 80% or less of the horizontal length d32 of the top surface portion 40. On the other hand, if the length d31 is too small, the horizontal length of the removal opening will also be small, and it may become difficult to remove items. From this perspective, it is preferable that the length d31 is 60% or more of the length d32.
  • the horizontal length d34 of the bent portion 322 is equal to the horizontal length d31 of the bent portion 312.
  • the bent portion 322 extends horizontally across the entire outlet, which is advantageous in preventing dust from entering.
  • the length d34 may be slightly smaller than the length d31 (for example, about 0.1 mm to 3 mm). This makes it easier for the bent portion 322 to pass through the opening 314.
  • the edge of the opening 314 will interfere with the folding portion 322 when the folding portion 322 is folded. This prevents the folding angle of the folding portion 322 from becoming too large. This makes it easier to maintain the folding portion 322 folded diagonally upward. From this perspective, it is preferable that the distance between the fold line 348 and the perforation 332 in a plan view before the folding portions 312, 322 are folded be approximately 0.1 mm to 0.5 mm.
  • the bent portion 322 is bent upwardly of the top surface portion 40, thereby creating an opening 324 in the inner member 320 that overlaps with the opening 314.
  • the inner member 320 covers the back surface of the outer member 310 so as to surround the entire periphery of the removal opening, which is advantageous in increasing the strength of the top surface portion 40.
  • Other effects of the item storage box 4 are the same as those of the item storage box 1.

  • the tip edge 22a may have multiple convex portions 350 as shown in FIG. 41.
  • the multiple convex portions 350 of the tip edge 322a include angular convex portions with angular tips and round convex portions with rounded tips.
  • the convex portion 350a located at the very end of the tip edge 322a protrudes more than the convex portion 350b located at the other end of the tip edge 322a.
  • the convex portion 350a is a round convex portion
  • the convex portion 350b is an angular convex portion. Note that when the vertical dimension of the bent portion 322 is not constant as in this example, the maximum value of the dimension is taken as the vertical length d35 of the bent portion 322.
  • protrusions 350 are provided on the tip edge 322a. This can strengthen the holding power of the folded portion 322 for holding an item.
  • the protrusion 350a located at the very end of the tip edge 322a protrudes more than the protrusions 350b located other than at the very end.
  • the protrusions 350a, which are rounded protrusions, protrude it is possible to reduce the risk of a user (especially a child) getting injured by touching the protrusions 350b, which are angular protrusions.
  • the convex portion 350a protrudes more than the convex portion 350b.
  • the tips of all the convex portions 350 on the leading edge 322a may be aligned.

That is, as shown in FIG. 45, the recess 360 is large enough to pick up the part of the item (tissue paper 90) that overlaps with the recess 360 (the shaded part) with two fingers (usually the thumb and index finger).
  • the recess 360 is semicircular.
  • the recess 360 is provided in the center of the tip edge 322a. Note that the above-mentioned convex portion 350 (angular convex portion and/or round convex portion) may be provided in the area of the tip edge 322a where the recess 360 is not provided, as shown in FIG. 46.
  • a recess 360 is provided on the leading edge 322a. This makes it easier to pick up one end of an item when pulling it out.
