Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Field of Application) The present invention relates to a container with a cap, particularly a packaging box for a container with a cap, which is suitable for storing a pharmaceutical container such as an eye drop container.

(Prior art) Conventionally, eye drop containers used in hospitals, etc. are different from those used at home, and are used to carry several types of eye drops or a large number of divided eye drops at a time for treatment. Eye drops are unstable,
The medicine loses its effectiveness after some time has passed after opening the bottle. Therefore, such eye drops are divided into small containers for use.

However, the current situation is that the caps removed from each container body are placed casually on the treatment table, and the caps often fall off the treatment table and are lost. Furthermore, the task of attaching the cap to the container body after use is complicated, and there is a problem in that it is difficult to know which cap is suitable for which container body.

Conventionally, packaging boxes have been proposed as a solution to this problem, as seen in, for example, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 12943/1983. This packaging box consists of a main body for receiving the container and a lid that is hinged to the main body and has an opening for receiving the lid of the container. is fitted into the opening of the lid so that the lid of the container is always held close to the container.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) However, in the case of the above conventional packaging box,
Although it is possible to prevent the cap from being lost when opening the bottle, there are additional problems as follows.

In other words, for example, when you do not need to take out the contents from the container frequently and want to temporarily cover the container,
The lid of the packaging box may be turned over to the container side, and the lid fitted into the opening of the lid may be placed against the mouth of the container, but if you are handling multiple containers at a time, When all the containers are housed in one packaging box, the lid has a plurality of openings, and the lids of the plurality of containers are fitted into the lid. Therefore, reversing the lid in such a state is more troublesome than in the case of a packaging box for one container, and even if you want to keep the lid on, it is difficult to turn the lid on. The mouth of the container is often left open to avoid inversion. In this case, there were problems such as dirt and dust getting into the container, or other chemicals scattered in the air getting mixed in.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to solve the above problems, the packaging box for containers with caps according to the present invention is provided with a lid plate having an insert piece connected to the top edge of the rear plate and the top edge of the rear plate. A box body in which the upper edge of the front plate is cut out by an amount approximately equal to the length of the insertion piece excluding both side parts, and a container body of one or more containers with caps provided in the box body. a container holder for holding in a predetermined position; a base end portion located at the upper edge of the cutout portion of the front plate of the box body; The cap receiving piece is provided with a receiving hole into which the cap is inserted and received at a location corresponding to the holding position of the container body.

(Function) When the container body is taken out of the box and used, the cap is inserted and locked into the receiving hole of the cap receiving piece, thereby preventing the cap from being lost. Also, if you want to cover the opening of the container body without putting the cap over the container body,
Close the lid plate while leaving the cap receiving piece outside of the box body. At this time, the cutout portion of the front plate is also closed by the insertion piece of the lid plate, so that the opening of the container body is not exposed to the outside.

(Example) Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a partially cutaway perspective view showing a container packaging box with a cap, and FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing a container holder constituting the box.

This container packaging box with a cap is composed of a box body 8, a container holder 1, and a cap receiving piece 6.

The box body 8 has a horizontally long rectangular parallelepiped shape with a depth approximately equal to the height of the capped container 3 to be stored, and a lid plate 8a having an insertion piece 8c is connected from the upper edge of the rear plate 8b to the tip. At the same time, the front plate 8d
The upper edge of the insert piece 8c except for the both side portions 8e8e
It is removed by an amount approximately equal to the length of.

As shown in FIG. 2, the container holder 1 includes a holding part 4 for holding containers with caps 3, and an upright piece 5 extending from the upper edge 4b of the front part 4a of the holding part 4. A cap receiving piece 6, which will be described later, is connected from the tip 5a of the raised piece to face the upper surface 4c of the holding part 4. The upper surface portion 4c of the holding portion 4 is provided with one or more (five in this example) holding holes 4d having a shape that matches the container body 3b.

The cap receiving piece 6 is configured to be reversible in the direction shown by the white arrow in FIG. Reception holes 6a are formed at locations corresponding to the holding holes 4d. The receiving hole 6a
... is the base end 2 of the cap 2 of the container 3 with a cap.
It is formed to have a slightly smaller diameter than the outer diameter of a. on the other hand,
The cap 2 has a diameter that gradually decreases from the base end 2a toward the upper end 2b. However, cap 2
is not limited to the shape of this example, but may be one in which the base end portion 2a protrudes like a brim and is formed to have a larger diameter than the receiving hole 6a. The code 6b in the figure is
This recess is provided for easy fingertip hooking when the cap receiving piece 6 is turned over from inside the box body 8 and taken out to the outside.

The container holder 1 constructed as described above is fitted into the box body 8 with the upright piece 5 facing the front plate 8d, and the base end 5 of the cap receiving piece 6
b is located at the upper edge 8f of the cutout portion of the front plate 8d of the box body 8. The cap receiving piece 6 can be turned inward and outward of the box body 8 about the base end 5b.

Next, FIGS. 3 to 5 show how the packaging box for containers with caps constructed as described above is used. Note that the box 8 is omitted in these figures.

When the container main body 3b with the cap 2 attached is held in the holding part 4 of the container holder 1, the cap receiving piece 6 of the container holder 1 touches the upper surface part 4c of the holding part 4.
The upper end portion 2b of the cap 2 projects upward from the receiving hole 6a of the cap receiving piece 6 (see FIG. 3).

The cap 2 removed from the container body 3b is
The cap 2 is inserted into the receiving hole 6a of the cap receiving piece 6 which has been reversed from the position shown by the imaginary line in FIG.
is taken out from the holding part 4 and used for treatment, etc. (see Fig. 4).

After use, when the container main body 3b is held in the holding hole 4d of the holding part 4 again and the cap receiving piece 6 with the cap 2 inserted therein is reversed and returned, the cap 2
is placed over the opening 3a of the container body 3b (see FIG. 5).

After that, the cap 2 can be attached to the container body 3b by simply turning the cap 2.

Further, during use, there is no need to cover the opening 3a of the container body 3b with the cap 2, and the cap 2 is simply placed on the opening 3a of the container body 3b.
If you want to cover the opening part 3a to prevent dust or other chemicals from adhering to the opening part 3a or splashing other chemicals in the air, you can cover only the cover plate 8a without reversing the cap receiving piece 6. It is enough to cover it.

In the above embodiment, the holding holes 4d are formed in a horizontal row, but the arrangement is not limited to this. Therefore, it goes without saying that the arrangement of the receiving holes 6a facing the positions of the holding holes 4d is not limited to a single horizontal row.

FIG. 6 shows another embodiment of the present invention, in which the cap receiving piece 6 is attached to the front plate 8d of the box body 8.
In addition to being integrally formed in advance with the box body 8,
The container holder 1 having the leg portions 4e is fitted on both sides of the upper surface portion 4c, and is easier to manufacture than the one shown in FIG. 1, and the production cost can be kept low.

FIG. 7 shows a device provided with a rotation prevention means for preventing rotation of the container body 3b with respect to the container holder 1, in which a holding hole 4d is formed in an elliptical shape or a square shape, and the container body is held in the holding hole 4d. 3b is also shaped to approximately fit inside the holding hole 4d. With this, when attaching the cap to the container body 3b held by the holding part 4, the container body 3b
It is possible to prevent idle rotation and can be easily installed with one hand.

FIG. 8 shows another embodiment of the rotation prevention means, in which a non-slip member 9 made of a rubber material or the like with a large frictional force is adhered to the bottom surface 4e of the holding portion 4.

(Effects of the invention) As explained above, since the container packaging box with a cap of the invention is equipped with a cap receiving piece,
When the container body is taken out of the box and used, the cap can be inserted and locked into the receiving hole of the cap receiving piece, so there is no need to worry about the cap falling off the treatment table or being lost. .

In addition, after use, simply flip the cap receiving piece back from the state where the container body is held in the holder.
Each cap fitted into the receiving hole can be placed over each container body at the same time, and all that is left to do is simply turn the cap, so the caps can be attached extremely easily.

Furthermore, the upper edge of the front plate of the box body is cut out by an amount approximately equal to the length of the insertion piece of the cover plate, and the base end of the cap receiving piece is attached to the upper edge of the cut out part of the front plate. Because it is positioned so that
The cap receiving piece can be smoothly turned inward and outward from the box body. Moreover, since the box body is provided with a lid plate, and the cutout portion of the front plate is made approximately equal in length to the insertion piece of the lid plate, packaging can be performed without exposing the container with a cap. Further, during use, if you want to cover the opening of the container body without putting the cap over the container body, the lid plate can be closed even if the cap receiving piece remains outside of the box body. Therefore, it is possible to protect the mouth of the container body without attaching a cap, and prevent dust and other substances from adhering to the mouth or other chemicals scattered in the air. can be prevented.
