Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] Industrial Application Field This invention relates to a container used to store and transport bottles, particularly bottles with conical shoulders, in multiple stages.

Conventional technology This type of container is not for bottles,
Although it is for paper containers with a gable roof, for example,
As disclosed in Utility Model Publication No. 56-17309,
By providing downward protruding walls with a substantially V-shaped cross section in parallel on the upper open container body, and making the downward protruding walls come into contact with the gable roof of a paper container stored in another container placed at the lower level. It is known that paper containers are stored in multiple stages.

Problems that the invention aims to solve In the container described above, the downward projecting wall contacts the gable roof over almost the entire surface, so the posture of the stacked containers is stable, and there is no need to worry about the stacked containers collapsing. Although this is unlikely, even if you try to use the container for bottles, the downward protruding wall only contacts the conical shoulder of the bottle in a linear manner, so there is a risk that the stacked containers will collapse, and the shoulder of the bottle will There is a risk of injury.

The purpose of this invention is to provide a multi-stage storage/transport container for bottles with conical shoulders that solves the above-mentioned problems.

Means for Solving the Problems The multi-stage storage/transport container for conical shouldered bottles according to this invention has positioning recesses arranged in a grid pattern from front to back and from side to side on the top surface of the bottom wall of the top-open container body. , on the lower surface of the bottom wall, a downward protruding wall having a substantially V-shaped cross section extending in the left-right direction directly below each row is provided in correspondence with each row of recesses lined up in the left-right direction, and each downward protruding wall has a substantially V-shaped cross section. , the front and rear abutting parts placed on the front and rear of the shoulders of the bottle fitted in the recesses of another container arranged on the lower tier are provided so as to be located directly below each recess, and the front and rear abutting parts Each of the surfaces is a concave curved surface that matches a portion of the conical surface formed by the shoulder of the bottle.

Function In the multi-stage storage/transport container for conical shouldered bottles according to this invention, positioning recesses are provided on the top surface of the bottom wall of the container body that is open from the top, and are arranged in a grid pattern from front to back and from side to side. Depending on the location, the bottom of the bottle stored in the container is positioned.

Further, on the lower surface of the bottom wall, a downward protruding wall having a substantially V-shaped cross section is provided, corresponding to each row of recesses lined up in the left-right direction, and extending in the left-right direction directly below each row,
Each downwardly protruding wall is provided with front and rear abutting portions located directly below each recess, which are placed on the front and rear of the shoulders of a bottle fitted into the recess of another container placed on the lower tier. , the container is supported by shoulders of all bottles positioned in recesses of another container placed on the lower tier.

Furthermore, since the contact surfaces of the front and rear contact portions are each formed into a concave curved surface that matches a part of the conical surface formed by the shoulder of the bottle, the shoulder of the bottle and the downwardly protruding wall are in surface contact, and The contact surface positions the shoulder of the bottle.

Embodiment Figure 1 shows a large number of bottles 1 and two containers 2 storing them stacked in two layers, one above the other.
It shows.

The bottle 1 consists of a bottomed cylindrical body 3, a conical shoulder 5 and a circular mouth 4. The mouth portion 4 is covered with a cap 6.

The entire container 2 is integrally molded from plastic, and has five parts in the front and back direction.
1, an upwardly open box-shaped container body 9 in which a total of 20 bottles 1 are stored, arranged in four rows in the left and right direction, and another container 2 that is provided in a downwardly protruding manner on the container body 9 and arranged in a lower stage. It consists of a substantially uneven mounting section 10 placed on the bottle 1.

The container body 9 consists of a flat bottom wall 7 and a peripheral wall 8 that are long in the front-rear direction. The sum of the height of the peripheral wall 8 and the height of the mounting part 10 is made smaller than the height of the bottle 1.

The upper surface of the bottom wall 7 is provided with grid-shaped bottle positioning recesses 12 by forming grid-like protrusions 11 extending in the front-rear and left-right directions. A square hole 13 is bored in the bottom of each recess 12.

The mounting section 10 includes downwardly protruding walls 14 that extend in the left-right direction and have a substantially V-shaped cross section, and partition walls 1 that are provided at regular intervals in the left-right direction between each of the downwardly protruding walls 14.
5, and front and rear reinforcing walls 16 and 17 provided at the front and rear of the downwardly projecting walls 14 at both front and rear ends of each downwardly projecting wall 14, respectively. Each downwardly protruding wall 14 is
Bottle positioning recesses 12 arranged in rows in the left and right direction
On the other hand, it extends in the left-right direction from the position on the opposite side of the bottom wall 7. The partition wall 15 is located on the opposite side of the bottom wall 7 from the protrusion 11 extending in the front-rear direction. Each partition wall 15 has a substantially trapezoidal hole 18
is open. Each downwardly protruding wall 14 includes an upper vertical section 19, an intermediate inclined section 20, and a lower vertical section 21, which sandwich the cap 6, shoulder 5, and upper end of the trunk 3 from both front and rear sides, respectively. Recesses 22 are provided facing each other in the portion from the upper vertical portion 19 to the intermediate inclined portion 20 for each length partitioned by the partition wall 15 of each downwardly protruding wall 14. The portion 23 present in the portion 19 sandwiches the cap 6 and faces it with a slight gap, while the portion present in the intermediate inclined portion 20 abuts the shoulder 5 of the bottle 1 from the front and back. The front and rear contact portions 24 are formed. Front and rear contact parts 2
The contact surface 4 is a concave curved surface that matches a part of the conical surface formed by the shoulder 5.

Effects of the invention According to this invention, the bottom of the bottle stored in the container is positioned by the recesses, the shoulder of the bottle is positioned by the contact surface, and then the bottle is fitted into all the recesses. Even if there is no bottle, the bottle will not shift its position.

In addition, since the container is supported by the shoulders of all the bottles that are positioned by fitting into the recesses of another container placed on the lower tier, the position of the container is stable as well as the above-mentioned bottles do not shift. However, containers stacked in multiple tiers will not collapse.

Furthermore, since the shoulder of the bottle and the downwardly protruding wall are in surface contact, the posture of the stacked containers is further stabilized, and the shoulder of the bottle is not damaged.

Further, since the downward projecting wall has a substantially V-shaped cross section, it can be used for storing and transporting paper containers with a gable roof.
