Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (a) Field of industrial application The present invention relates to a packaging device for a dish dryer, which comprises a heater body, a dish basket, and a lid.

(b) Conventional technology Conventionally, as this type of dish dryer, for example,
As seen in Publication No. 60-36864, the lid that covers the top opening of the dish basket is divided into two parts, and a pair of large and small lids are coaxially pivoted by a pair of pivots so that the inside and outside can overlap and rotate. When packaging, the heater itself was placed inside a tableware basket and then placed inside a packaging box.

At this time, be careful not to lift the heater body.
The heater body was attached to the dish basket with tape.
As a result, workability was poor, and moreover, the tapes came off during transportation, causing the parts to collide with each other and cause damage.

(c) Problems to be solved by the invention The present invention was created in view of the above-mentioned problems, and aims to provide a packaging device that has a simple structure and can prevent the heater body from floating up during transportation. Take it as a challenge.

(d) Means for solving the problem In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problem, the present invention is designed to close the large lid of a pair of lids, and to rotate the small lid that rotates inside the large lid. The side end face in the opening direction is opened so as to come into contact with the heater main body, and the buffer material interposed between the small lid body and the packaging box is provided with a holding part that engages with the side end face in the opposite opening direction of the opened small lid body. It was established.

(E) Effect Since the heater is constructed as described above, the small lid is held in an open state by the holding portion of the cushioning material, and the heater main body can be stored in the dish basket without being lifted up by the small lid in the open state.

(F) Embodiment An embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 5.

Reference numeral 1 designates a dish dryer, which includes a synthetic resin heater body 4 that includes a heater 2, a heat sink 3, etc., and a synthetic resin dish basket 5 that is removably placed on the opening edge of the upper surface of the heater body 4. , and a pair of large and small transparent synthetic resin lids 6 and 7 that cover the top opening of the tableware basket 5. The lid body 6, 7
are pivotally supported by a pair of common pivots 8, 8 attached to opposing upper opening edges of the tableware basket 5,
The small lid body 6 having an arcuate outer peripheral surface can rotate around the pivots 8, 8 inside the large lid body 7, and the large lid body 7 can rotate on the outside of the small lid body 6. ing.

The bottom surface of the tableware basket 5 is provided with a large number of through holes 9, and the inner surface thereof is provided with a plurality of mounting ribs 10.
is formed. A recess 13 surrounding the heater housing 12 is formed on the back surface of the heater main body 4, and a plurality of reinforcing ribs 14 for reinforcing the side wall of the heater main body 4 are provided in the recess 13. A reinforcing rib 14 is installed between the side wall and the heater storage portion 12.
A cord storage chamber 16 that stores the power cord 15 between them.
is formed. The lower end of the side wall of the heater main body 4 and the lower surface of the heater accommodating portion 12 are formed substantially flush with each other.

Next, to explain the packaging, the heater body 4 is turned upside down and the upper opening flange 11 of the heater body 4 is placed on the placement rib 10 of the tableware basket 5. At this time, the lower surface of the heater main body 4 is flush with the upper opening edge of the tableware basket 5 or protrudes upward, and the outer circumferential surface of the upper opening flange 11 substantially contacts the inner surface of the tableware basket 5. The top opening of this tableware basket 5 is covered with a lid, and although the large lid 7 is closed, the small lid 6 rotating inside the large lid 7 is opened, and at this time, the end surface on the side in the opening direction is opened. comes into contact with the lower end of the side wall of the heater main body 4 and the lower surface of the heater storage chamber 12. Then, with the small lid 6 open, the tableware basket 5 and both lids 6, 7 are packed into a packaging box 16 with cushioning materials 17, 18, 19, 20 interposed.

The cushioning material 17 for positioning the small lid 6 includes:
A holding portion 22 is cut out and engaged with a flange 21 that is the end surface of the small lid body 6 in the open state in the opposite direction to the opening direction. By this engagement, the small lid body 6
is held open, that is, its end face in the opening direction is held in contact with the heater body 4.

With this configuration, the heater main body 4
is prevented from rising by the small lid body 6,
Rotation of the small lid body 6 is prevented by the holding portion 22 of the buffer material 17. Furthermore, the power cord 15 is prevented from moving by the small lid 6.

(G) Effects of the invention According to the invention, with a simple structure, it is possible to prevent the heater main body from lifting up and the small lid from rotating during transportation, and the packaging work can be improved. play.
