Therefore, an item storage box 1 that can prevent dust from entering the main body 10 through the outlet can be realized.
  • the fold 34 also has a curved shape that bulges outward from the folding piece 24.

  • the mechanism by which the curved fold line 32 restricts the bending angle of the folding piece 22 will now be explained in detail. If the main body 10 is rigid (not flexible), the folding piece 22 cannot be bent along a curve. In contrast, in the item storage box 1, the main body 10 is flexible, so even if the fold line 32 is curved, the folding piece 22 can be bent to a certain angle due to the flexure of the main body 10. At this time, a return force acts on the folding piece 22 due to the restoring force of the main body 10. This restricts the bending angle of the folding piece 22. The same applies to the mechanism by which the curved fold line 34 restricts the bending angle of the folding piece 24.

  • Increasing the curve rate of the fold line 32 is advantageous in strengthening the return force acting on the folding piece 22. From this perspective, it is preferable that the curve rate of the fold line 32 is 1.9% or more. On the other hand, if the curve rate of the fold line 32 is too large, the return force will be excessively strong, which may make it difficult to remove the item from the removal opening. From this perspective, it is preferable that the curve rate of the fold line 32 is 9.7% or less, and more preferably 4.8% or less.
  • Increasing the curve rate of the fold line 34 is advantageous in strengthening the return force acting on the folding piece 24. From this perspective, it is preferable that the curve rate of the fold line 34 is 1.9% or more. On the other hand, if the curve rate of the fold line 34 is too large, the return force will be excessively strong, which may make it difficult to remove the item from the removal opening. From this perspective, it is preferable that the curve rate of the fold line 34 is 9.7% or less, and more preferably 4.8% or less.
  • the cut line 42 is wavy. In this case, unevenness is created at the tip edges of the folding pieces 22 and 24. This can strengthen the holding power of the folding pieces 22 and 24 against the item.
  • the cut line 42 has a shape without any corners. This makes it less likely that an item will get caught on the leading edge of the folding piece 22 and the folding piece 24 when being removed, making it easier to remove the item smoothly.
  • cut line 42 forms a sine curve, it helps to improve the aesthetic appearance of the outlet forming portion 20 and therefore the item storage box 1.
  • the half wavelength d3 of the cut line 42 is advantageous in strengthening the holding power of the folding pieces 22 and 24 against an object, since the unevenness of the tip edges of the folding pieces 22 and 24 becomes finer.
  • the half wavelength d3 is preferably 10 mm or less, and more preferably 5 mm or less.
  • the half wavelength d3 is preferably 3 mm or more.
  • the total amplitude d4 of the cut line 42 increases the unevenness difference at the tip edges of the folded pieces 22 and 24, which is advantageous in strengthening the holding power of the folded pieces 22 and 24 against the item. From this perspective, it is preferable that the total amplitude d4 is 3 mm or more. On the other hand, if the total amplitude d4 is too large, the item will penetrate too deeply into the recess, preventing smooth removal of the item. From this perspective, it is preferable that the total amplitude d4 is 10 mm or less, and more preferably 5 mm or less.

From the same perspective, the length of the tongue 172 is preferably 1 cm or more longer than the distance d10, and more preferably 2 cm or more longer. On the other hand, if the length of the tongue 172 is too large, it may be difficult to secure the tongue portion 170 in the main body 110 before deformation. From this perspective, the length of the tongue 172 is preferably 1.5 times or less than the distance d10. From the same perspective, the difference between the length of the tongue 172 and the distance d10 is preferably 5 cm or less.
  • the cut line 150 is made up of bottom cut portions 151 to 153, as well as side cut portions 154 and 155. This allows the cut line 150 for forming the tongue piece 172 to be realized with a simple configuration.

  • the slit portion 282 and the slit portion 284 are formed at positions that overlap each other in a side view.
  • a cut is made in the main body 210 along the cut line 262. Then, the portion 282a surrounded by the cut line 262 is folded outward along the fold line 233 to turn the slit portion 282 into a slit 283. Also, a cut is made in the main body 210 along the cut line 264. Then, the portion 284a surrounded by the cut line 264 is folded outward along the fold line 235 to turn the slit portion 284 into a slit 285. Next, a cut is made in the main body 210 along the cut line 250 to separate the cut portion 270 from the main body 210, turning the cut portion 270 into a cut portion 272.
  • the cut portion 272 is inserted into the slit 283 and the slit 285 so that its short side is parallel to the side portion 232.
  • the protruding portion 272a of the segment 272 is printed with letters or a design.
  • the protruding portion 272a is a portion that protrudes from each slit 283, 285 to the outside of the main body 210.
  • the letters or design are printed on the upper surface (the surface on the upper surface portion 240 side) of the protruding portion 272a.

  • the content of the company PR message may be, for example, an introduction to the company's efforts in addressing environmental issues.
  • the lower portion 210a is the portion that exists below the piece 272 when it is inserted into the slits 283 and 285.
  • the lower portion 210a consists of a part of the inner surface of the bottom portion 220 and a part of the inner surface of each of the side portions 232, 234, 236, and 238.
  • An advertising slogan may be printed on the lower portion 210a.
  • the lower portion 210a may be provided with a scented section 212, as shown in FIG. 31, for example.
  • the scented section 212 is provided on the inner surface of the side portion 234.
  • a fragrance is attached to the scented section 212.
  • the scented section 212 can be realized, for example, by printing the fragrance on the lower portion 210a.
  • a peelable sticker 214 is attached to the scented section 212.
  • peelable means that the sticker 214 can be easily peeled off from the scented section 212 without damaging the lower portion 210a and the scented section 212.
  • the sticker 214 prevents the fragrance in the scented section 212 from dissipating.
  • the section 270, as well as the slit section 282 and the slit section 284 are provided on the main body 210. From the section 270, the section 272 separated from the main body 210 is obtained. From the slit section 282 and the slit section 284, the slit 283 and the slit 285 are obtained, which are located in the middle of the side section 232 and the side section 234, respectively, and into which the section 272 can be inserted. By inserting the section 272 into the slit 283 and the slit 285, the section 272 can be stretched from the middle of the side section 232 to the middle of the side section 234.
  • an item storage box 3 has been realized that can stably support items when the bottom is raised, without the need for a bottom-raising member separate from the main body 210.
  • 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 3, 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 210 can be solved. Also, by increasing the height of main body 210, a large space can be secured for printing letters or patterns. Furthermore, used main body 210 becomes waste, so storing a large number of items in one main body 210 also leads to a reduction in waste.
  • the segment 272 is in a state where it is separated from the main body 210. In this case, the segment 272 can be freely displaced relative to the main body 210, making it easier to insert the segment 272 into the slits 283 and 285.
  • the distance h21 is equal to or greater than 1/2 of the height h20 of the main body 210.
  • the distance h21 is equal to or less than 4/5 of the height h20.
  • Increasing the distance h22 from the bottom surface portion 220 to the slit portion 284 in the height direction of the main body 210 is advantageous in terms of enhancing the bottom-raising effect of the item storage box 3. From this perspective, it is preferable that the distance h22 is equal to or greater than 1/2 of the height h20 of the main body 210. On the other hand, if the distance h22 is too large, the amount of items that can be stored in the item storage box 3 after deformation will be extremely small. From this perspective, it is preferable that the distance h22 is equal to or less than 4/5 of the height h20.
  • Slit portion 282 and slit portion 284 are formed in a position where they overlap each other in a side view. This makes it easier to position piece 272 inserted into slits 283 and 285 parallel to bottom portion 220.
  • the cut lines 250 are formed only on the bottom surface 220. In this case, the cut lines 250 do not pass through the boundaries between the bottom surface 220 and each of the side surfaces 232, 234, 236, and 238, making it easier to make cuts along the cut lines 250.
  • the cut line 250 is made up of cut portions 251 and 252, as well as cut portions 253 and 254. This allows the cut line 250 for forming the segment 272 to be realized with a simple configuration.
  • the cut portions 251 and 252 are in a straight line. This makes it easier to make cuts along the cut portions 251 and 252.
  • the cut portions 253 and 254 are in a straight line. This makes it easier to make cuts along the cut portions 253 and 254.
  • the width w21 of the segment 272 is advantageous for stably supporting the item in the item storage box 3 after the bottom has been raised, since the segment 272 will come into contact with a wider area of the item.
  • debris from the item e.g., paper dust from tissue paper
  • the width w21 is preferably 1/4 or more of the width w20 of the side portion 232, and more preferably 1/2 or more.
  • the width w21 is preferably 3/4 or less of the width w20.
  • the vertical cut portions 262a and 262b, and the horizontal cut portion 262c are all in a straight line. This makes it easy to make cuts along the vertical cut portions 262a and 262b, and the horizontal cut portion 262c.
  • the cut line 262 consists only of the vertical cut portion 262a, the vertical cut portion 262b, and the horizontal cut portion 262c.
  • the portion 282a surrounded by the cut line 262 is not cut off from the main body 210, so it is possible to abut the portion 282a against the protruding portion 272a of the piece 272. This makes it even more difficult for the piece 272 to accidentally slip out of the slit 283.
  • the cut line 264 includes vertical cut portions 264a and 264b, as well as horizontal cut portions 264c. This allows the cut line 264 for forming the slit 285 to be realized with a simple configuration.
  • the vertical cut portions 264a and 264b, and the horizontal cut portion 264c are all in a straight line. This makes it easy to make cuts along the vertical cut portions 264a and 264b, and the horizontal cut portion 264c.
  • the cut line 264 consists only of the vertical cut portion 264a, the vertical cut portion 264b, and the horizontal cut portion 264c.
  • the portion 284a surrounded by the cut line 264 is not cut off from the main body 210, so it is possible to abut the portion 284a against the protruding portion 272a of the piece 272. This makes it even more difficult for the piece 272 to accidentally slip out of the slit 285.
  • Letter or a design is printed on the protruding portion 272a of the segment 272.
  • the aesthetic appearance of the body 210 after deformation can be improved.
  • the letters or designs are printed on the top surface of the protruding portion 272a. By printing on the top surface, where they are easily visible, the letters or designs can be made to stand out.
  • the outlet portion 272a can be used as advertising space. By recruiting advertisers, it is possible to earn advertising revenue. If this revenue is used to cover the manufacturing costs of the item storage box 3, the product price of the item storage box 3 can be kept low.
  • the lower portion 210a can be used as advertising space. By recruiting advertisers, it is possible to earn advertising revenue. If this revenue is used to cover the manufacturing costs of the item storage box 3, the product price of the item storage box 3 can be kept low.
  • the fragrance section 212 is provided in the lower portion 210a, it is possible to disperse a fragrance around the main body 210 after it has been deformed. That is, by peeling off the seal 214 after the main body 210 has been deformed, the fragrance in the fragrance section 212 can be dispersed around the main body 210. In addition, because the seal 214 is affixed to the fragrance section 212, the user can choose whether or not to disperse a fragrance around the main body 210 by whether or not to peel off the seal 214. Other effects of the item storage box 3 are the same as those of the item storage box 1.
  • the horizontal cut portion 262c of the cut line 262 is shown as a straight line.
  • the horizontal cut portion 262c may be wavy, for example, as shown in FIG. 33.
  • the piece 272 inserted into the slit 283 can be sandwiched from above and below by the convex portions, making it even more difficult for the piece 272 to accidentally slip out of the slit 283.
  • the main body 210 may have a plurality of slit portions 282 and a plurality of slit portions 284, as shown in, for example, FIG. 35 and FIG. 36.
  • the plurality of slit portions 282 are provided at different positions in the height direction of the main body 210.
  • the plurality of slit portions 284 are provided at different positions in the height direction of the main body 210.
  • the slit portions 282 and the slit portions 284 are provided at positions overlapping each other in a side view.
  • the height of the segment 272 (the distance from the bottom surface 220) can be adjusted by inserting the segment 272 into whichever pair of slits 283, 285. This makes it possible to select the degree of bottom raising depending on the remaining amount of items. Also, by arranging each slit 282 and each slit 284 in a position where they overlap each other in a side view, it becomes easier to position the segment 272 parallel to the bottom surface 220 regardless of which pair of slits 283, 285 the segment 272 is inserted into.
  • the cut line 262 is formed along a single non-circular line.
  • the cut line 262 may be formed along a single circular line, for example, as shown in FIG. 39.
  • the portion 282a surrounded by the cut line 262 is cut off from the side portion 232, and a slit 283 having the same shape and size as the portion 282a is obtained.
