Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Field of industrial application] The present invention relates to a packaging container suitable for storing small products, and in particular, the present invention relates to a packaging container suitable for storing small products. The present invention relates to a packaging container which is easy to use, and which can greatly expose stored items and exhibit its display effect.

[Prior Art] Various types of packaging containers made of boxes are known, but if the product is simply stored inside the box, it may be difficult to remove the stored product by opening the lid of the box. There are many. Furthermore, in order to make the packaging more complete, it is also known that the packaging box is made into a double box consisting of an inner box and an outer box, and the product is stored in the inner box. However, simply using a double box still leaves the above-mentioned problem of difficulty in taking out the product, and often requires the operation of completely or partially removing the inner box from the outer box when taking out the product. Although the packaging is more complete, the removal operation is often more cumbersome.

As a double box type packaging container, it was developed in 1987-124243.
A box-shaped container is known in the above publication, which is composed of an outer box that is divided into left and right halves, and an inner box that is stored within the outer box, but the structure is such that each of the divided outer boxes can only be opened halfway ( Since the structure is such that the opening operation is stopped by a stopper when both divided parts are opened diagonally to each other), it is not possible to expose a large amount of the products stored in the inner box, and it is difficult to open the divided outer box. In this state, both the divided parts are diagonal to each other, so there is a problem that the entire packaging container cannot be placed in a stable position with the outer box open.

[Problem to be solved by the invention] The purpose of the invention is to achieve a more complete product packaging in a double-box type packaging container than in the case of a simple box, while at the same time achieving the same simple packaging as in the case of a simple box. The stored product can be easily taken out with a simple opening/closing operation, and the stored product can be automatically exposed to a large extent to create a display effect during the unpacking operation, and the entire packaging container remains stable when the outer box is open. An object of the present invention is to provide a packaging container that can be placed in a certain posture.

[Means for Solving the Problems] A packaging container of the present invention that meets this purpose is composed of an inner box that is open at least on the top surface side, and an outer box that houses the inner box, and has markings on both side walls of the inner box. One notch each has a hook-shaped portion that extends upward from the lower surface side of the inner box and then bends and extends in the horizontal direction, and both notches are formed in the horizontally extending direction of the both notches. The outer box is configured to have a substantially bilaterally symmetrical two-part double-opening structure, and the outer box is arranged in opposite directions to the vertically extending portion. The mutually opposing edges located on the lower surface of the inner box are rotatably connected to the lower surface of the inner box, and the edges are inserted into the side wall of one of the outer box divisions into one of the notches in the inner box side wall. An engaging piece is provided that is movable within the notch from the vertically extending portion to the end of the horizontally extending portion while being inserted into the notch as the outer box dividing portion opens, and the other The side wall of the outer box dividing part is inserted into the other notch of the inner box side wall, and is inserted into the notch as the outer box dividing part opens, and extends horizontally from the vertically extending part inside the notch. It consists of a movable engagement piece extending to the end of the installation part.

[Function] In such a packaging container, small products are stored in the inner box, but since the inner box has an open top surface side, the stored products are largely exposed at least upwardly with respect to the inner box.

When the outer box is closed, the left and right outer box divisions are brought together and the inner box is housed within the outer box. When both outer box divisions are opened to both sides, both outer box divisions are opened to the left and right using the opposing edges located on the lower surface of the inner box as a fulcrum, and the edges and the lower surface of the inner box are connected to each other. Since they are connected, the inner box is lifted from the bottom surface by the above-mentioned both edges of both outer box division parts, and with both outer box division parts completely opened horizontally, the inner box is lifted up above the above-mentioned both end edges. and is supported on both edges. Along with this outer box opening operation, each engaging piece extended on the side wall of each outer box division part is inserted into the notch along the corresponding notch, and from the vertically extending part of the notch. When the engaging piece moves to the horizontally extending portion and both outer box division portions are completely opened, one edge of each engaging piece abuts the end of the horizontally extending portion of the corresponding notch. Since the horizontally extending portions of both notches are oriented in opposite directions, one engaging piece supports the inner box horizontally in one direction by contacting the end of the corresponding notch, and the other engaging piece supports the inner box in one direction horizontally. The joining pieces support the inner box in opposite directions in a similar manner.

Therefore, when the outer box is open, the inner box is supported from the bottom side by the edges of both outer box division parts, and at the same time is supported and restrained on both sides in the horizontal direction by both engaging pieces. , kept in a stable position on the open outer box. The inner box is completely exposed on the outer box, and the stored product can be easily taken out from the top side. Moreover, since both outer box division parts are formed in a substantially symmetrical shape, when both outer box division parts are opened to the horizontal direction, the bottom surface of the outer case in the opened state lies on the same horizontal plane. No, the entire packaging container can be placed in a stable posture via the lower surface.

In the figure, reference numeral 1 indicates the entire packaging container, and the packaging container 1 is configured in a double box type with an inner box 2 and an outer box 3. The constituent materials of the inner box 2 and outer box 3 are preferably those having moderately high rigidity, such as relatively thick paper, plastic film, plastic sheets, or plastic molded bodies.

The inner box 2 is configured as a box with a large opening on the top side, and stores therein a plurality of products, for example, in this embodiment, products 4 made of pantyhose socks wrapped in film. The stored item may be any suitable small item, such as small textile products such as shorts, handkerchiefs, and socks, or miscellaneous goods such as soap. Further, the size of the inner box 2 may be determined depending on the amount of stored products 4. Storage product 4
are stored in two rows of six bags, for example. The inner box 2 is formed to a size that just fits within the outer box 3.

On both side walls 2a and 2b of the inner box 2, there is a bottom surface of the inner box 2.
A notch 5 (5-
1, 5-2) are formed one by one. The notch 5 is defined as having a hook-shaped part.
This is because there may be a portion (not shown) extending further downward from the terminal end 5c of the horizontally extending portion 5b, and the notch 5 includes at least the vertically extending portion 5a and the horizontally extending portion 5c. It is sufficient to have the portion 5b and its terminal end 5c. The horizontally extending portions 5b of the notches 5 provided on both side walls 2 extend in opposite directions to the vertically extending portions 5a.

The outer box 3 is formed as a rectangular parallelepiped box as a whole, and has a substantially bilaterally symmetrical two-part, double-opening structure. Both outer box division parts 3a, 3
When opening b, both the outer box divided parts 3a and 3b move toward each other with the opposing edges 3c and 3d of the outer box divided parts 3a and 3b located at the lower surface 2c of the inner box 2 as fulcrums. It is adapted to be rotated in opposite directions, and both end edges 3c and 3d are respectively connected to the lower surface 2c of the inner box 2 so as to be openable. This connection method may be any suitable method, but in this embodiment, each outer box division part 3
A part of the wall a, 3b is extended, the insertion part is bent after being inserted into the inner box 2, and the bent part is fixed (glued) on the inner bottom surface of the inner box 2 by an appropriate method. .

On one side wall 3e of one outer box division part 3a,
It is inserted into the notch 5-1 formed in the side wall 2a of the inner box 2, and in the inserted state, the outer box divided part 3
An engaging piece 6a extends from the vertically extending portion 5a of the notch 5-1 to the terminal end 5c of the horizontally extending portion 5b when the notch 5-1 opens. The side wall 3f of the other outer box split part 3b at the opposite position to the above is also inserted into the notch 5-2 formed in the side wall 2b of the inner box 2, and in the inserted state, the outer box split part 3b is inserted. An engaging piece 6b is provided which is movable from the vertically extending portion 5a of the notch 5-2 to the terminal end 5c of the horizontally extending portion 5b when the opening operation is performed.

In the embodiment configured as described above, when the outer box 3 is closed, it is in the state shown in FIG. 4 is completely covered and stored in a double box. At this time, each engagement piece 6a, 6b is connected to the vertically extending portion 5 of the corresponding notch 5-1, 5-2.
It is inserted into the lower end of a.

From the above state, both outer box division parts 3a and 3b are opened on both sides. As shown in FIG.
c and 3d in opposite directions, and as a result, the lower surface 2c of the inner box 2 becomes divided into parts 3a and 3d.
It is gradually lifted up while being connected to the edges 3c and 3d of 3b and appears outside. With this opening operation, each engagement piece 6a, 6b moves from the vertically extending portion 5a to the horizontally extending portion 5b while remaining inserted into the corresponding notch 5-1, 5-2. do.

As shown in Fig. 1, both outer box division parts 3
When a, 3b are opened until completely horizontal, each engagement piece 6a, 6b reaches the terminal end 5c of the corresponding notch 5-1, 5-2, respectively.
abuts on c.

In this state, the inner box 2 is connected and supported by both outer box division parts 3a, 3b on the lower surface side, and each engaging piece 6a, 6b is in contact with the notch end 5c. Since the inner box 2 is supported in opposite directions (horizontal direction), the inner box 2 is supported in a completely stable (restricted) state with respect to the outer box 3. The inner box 2 is entirely covered by the outer box 3.
It is exposed at the top, and the stored product 4 can be taken out very easily from the top side. In addition, both outer box division parts 3a,
3b has a symmetrical shape, so when they are fully opened, the bottom surface (side surface when closed)
form a common horizontal plane, and are placed in a stable state at an appropriate location.

In addition, when opening both the outer box division parts 3a, 3b, during the operation, the respective engaging pieces 6a, 6b, the notches 5-1, 5-2, and the side walls 2a, 2 of the inner box 2 are removed.
Due to the difference in frictional resistance between the engagement pieces 6a and 6b,
A situation may arise in which either one of the engagement pieces b reaches the end 5c of the corresponding notch first, and then the remaining engagement piece reaches the end 5c of the corresponding notch.
When such a situation occurs, the inner box 2 will tilt to either side of the outer box division parts 3a, 3b during the process of opening the outer box, but the engaging piece that reached the end 5c of the notch first will Since the inner box 2 is rotated in the direction to correct the above-mentioned inclination with the opening operation, the state shown in FIG. 1 will always occur when both outer box division parts 3a and 3b are completely opened. .

[Effects of the invention] As explained above, when using the packaging container of the invention, by opening the two-part type outer box on both sides, the entire inner box is automatically exposed on the outer box. Moreover, due to the rotatable connection between the bottom surface of the inner box and the edge of the outer box and the action of each engagement piece inserted into each notch, the inner box can be supported in a constant and stable posture with the outer box open. As a result, while adopting a double box type as a whole, the products stored in the inner box can be taken out extremely easily by simply opening the outer box, and the entire inner box and the products stored therein are not exposed to a large extent. , it is possible to obtain product display effects that are extremely convenient for selecting products to take out.

In addition, when the double-opening outer box is opened, the bottom surface forms a common horizontal surface, so the packaging container as a whole can be placed in a stable position even when the outer box is opened and the inner box is exposed. Effects can also be obtained.
