Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Industrial field of use) The present invention relates to a container for accommodating a lead wire of an electrolytic capacitor.

(Prior Art) An electrolytic capacitor lead wire is also referred to as a tab terminal 30, and is composed of an aluminum round wire 32 having a flat portion 31 for winding an electrode foil at its tip and a thin tinned steel wire 33 connected to this round wire. .

As a container for packaging a large number of these tab terminals, the conventional 7th to
The shape of FIG. 9 is known. This is the tab terminal 30
Which is made up of a plastic container main body 21 and a lid 22 for accommodating the inside of the container main body 21, and the bottom surface of the divided accommodating portion is inclined so as to become deep in the direction in which the aluminum round wire 32 enters. The feature is that the process of accommodating and packaging a large number of tab terminals 30 having different thicknesses at both ends can be smoothly performed.

(Problems to be solved by the invention) However, since this conventional container has a special shape with a slanted bottom surface as described above, it must be manufactured by molding a plastic film with a mold, and when it is not used. Used because it requires a lot of space to transport and store empty containers, and it is actually difficult to reuse the containers after use because it is necessary to clean dirt from oil, metal powder, etc. adhering to the containers. After that, it must be incinerated, but there was a disadvantage that harmful gas was generated when incinerated.

Further, when the tab terminals are taken out from the container having the conventional shape, since the container is turned upside down, the tab terminals taken out are once scattered and the polarities thereof are not uniform.

The purpose of the present invention is to save the space required for transporting and storing the container when not in use, and to generate no harmful gas even if the unnecessary container is incinerated after use. It is an object of the present invention to provide a container that can be taken out as it is.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to achieve the above object, the container of the present invention uses paper as a material and has a foldable structure.

That is, a paper strip is bent at 90 degrees along a plurality of folding lines in the width direction to form front and rear parallel divisions at equal intervals, and the left and right outer portions of the strip connecting the divisions are connected to each other. A right side wall material and a left side wall material made of paper are adhered to the side surfaces to form a plurality of storage chambers between the compartments, and the lower portions of the left and right side wall materials are directed inward along the lower edge of the strip material. Bending these lower parts together to close each bottom surface of the storage chamber to form a partition container, and then insert one or more of these partition containers into a prismatic paper outer casing so that they can be freely inserted and removed. And closing an upper opening of the storage chamber.

(Operation) Before using the container configured as described above, the entire band is flatly folded by bending the strip along a plurality of fold lines as shown in FIG.

At the time of use, the angle of each of the above fold lines is folded at 90 degrees, and the lower parts of both side wall members are bent inward along the lower edge of the band member, and these lower parts are adhered to each other to close each bottom surface of the storage chamber made of the band member. By doing so, the container is assembled and used to accommodate the tab terminal.

After accommodating the tab terminals, one or more of these compartments are removably inserted into the rectangular tubular paper outer casing to close the upper opening of the accommodating chamber.

When taking out the tab terminal in the container, the tab container is taken out by pulling out the partition container from the paper outer casing of the rectangular tube in the state of being turned upside down.

(Example) An example will be described with reference to the drawings. As shown in FIG. 1, a paper strip 2 is formed along a plurality of fold lines 1 in the width direction.
The left and right outer side surfaces 4 of the strip 2 which connect the respective partition parts by bending the parts 90 degrees each to form partition parts 3 parallel to each other at equal intervals.
a side wall member 5a and left side wall member 5 made of paper are provided on a and 4b, respectively.
b is adhered and a plurality of storage chambers 6 are formed between the compartments 3 to obtain a semi-assembled compartment A.

Before using the container A, the semi-assembled container A is folded as shown in FIGS. To fold container A,
The left and right side wall members 5a and 5b are pressed obliquely from the outer side surface of the container A in the semi-assembled state in the length direction of the band member to bring down the partition portion 3 to form a flat shape.

When used, as shown in FIG. 3, lower parts 7 of 5a and 5b
The a and 7b are bent inward along the fold lines 8a and 8b along the lower edge of the strip 2, and the lower portions 7a and 7b are adhered to each other to close the bottom surfaces of the storage chambers 6 to complete the partitioned container A.

A predetermined number of tab terminals 30 are vertically housed in the assembled partition container A, and then, as shown in FIG.
The tab terminals 30 are packaged by inserting the individual compartments A and A into the rectangular tubular paper outer package B so as to be freely inserted and removed and closing the upper opening of the accommodation chamber 6.

It goes without saying that the exterior body B is also appropriately folded before transportation, storage, etc. before use.

When taking out the tab terminal 30 from the container A,
In the state in which the partitioned container A is inserted into the housing chamber 6 and the upper opening is closed, the partitioned container A is turned upside down together with the exterior body B, and then the container A is pulled out from the exterior body B.

(Effects of the Invention) Since the present invention is configured as described above, it has the following effects.

First, by constructing the container A as described above, it is possible to fold the semi-assembled partitioned container A in the manner shown in FIGS. 5 and 6. This has the advantage that the space required for transportation and storage of the can be extremely small.

Further, by using paper as the material of the container, there is an advantage that no harmful gas is generated even if the container that is no longer used is incinerated after use, and that it is lightweight.

On the other hand, since the accommodated tab terminals are in the vertical direction, the advantage of the conventional container that the process of accommodating and packaging a large number of tab terminals having different thicknesses at both ends can be smoothly performed, and the exterior body is not damaged. By inserting one or a plurality of partitioned containers with the top opening of the accommodation chamber closed with upside down, and then pulling out from the exterior body to take out the tab terminal,
The tab terminals can be taken out from the container in a state where the polarities are aligned without scattering.
