FIG. 4A is a side view and FIG. 4B is a perspective view of an outer box in which a carton pad containing the BC antenna is placed when the BS antenna is contained in the carton pad. The substantially central portion of one piece of the substantially rectangular corrugated cardboard 10 is defined as a rectangular bottom portion 11, and both sides thereof are bent vertically from the bottom portion 11 at the bent portion A to be vertically raised to form side portions 12 and 14.
The tops of the side portions 12 and 14 are bent at the bent portion B to form two upper surface portions 13 and 15 that partially overlap with the bottom portion 11. The parabolic reflector 21 of the BS antenna is sandwiched between the bottom portion 11 and the top portions 13 and 15 and put in an outer box 30 for transportation or the like. Projections 11a protruding from the bottom surface 11 are provided at four corners of the bottom surface 11, which are sides having substantially the same length as the major axis and the minor axis of the parabolic reflecting mirror 21.

Cut portions 12a cut from both sides of the bottom portion 11 and the top portions 13 and 15 are formed in the side portions 12 and 14,
14a is provided. Protrusions 11a are also provided on the sides of the bottom surface 11 of the cuts 12a and 14a. Similarly, upper surface 1
Protrusions 13a and 15a are also provided at the corners of 3 and 15.

A plurality of slits 12b and 14b are formed in the side portions 12 and 14 to reach the bottom portion 11 and the top portions 13 and 15, respectively.

On two sides other than the side where the side portions 12 and 14 of the bottom portion 11 are connected, a protruding portion 11b is provided which protrudes from the same side by a length substantially half of the height of the side portion.

The length of the upper surface portions 13 and 14 in the longitudinal direction of the cardboard 10 is longer than half the length of the bottom surface portion in the same direction, and both upper surface portions 13 and 14 are substantially the same as the bottom surface portion 11. The length should be such that it engages at the position corresponding to the center. A slit 13b long in the side direction is opened in the vicinity of a position corresponding to substantially the center of the bottom portion of the one upper surface portion 13. A tongue 16 having a width that can be inserted into the slit 13b is provided by cutting out both ends of the tip side of the other upper surface 15. The tongue 16 is inserted into the slit 13b to engage the two upper parts 13 and 15.

At the approximate center of the upper surface portion 13, two parallel folded portions 13c are provided, and the folded portion c is mountain-folded and bent upward to form a folded portion. On the other hand, the tongue portion 16 extending from the upper surface portion 15 is also inserted into the slit 13b, and then folded up at the bent portion d to stand up. An opening 16a is opened in the tongue 16 at a predetermined position near the bent portion d. The opening 16a is inserted into and held by the antenna mounting portion 22b of the arm 22 that holds the primary radiator 22a of the BS antenna to the antenna. The primary radiator 22a side of the arm 22 is held between two folded portions 13c by applying tape or the like.

[0017]

The present invention is embodied in the form described above, and has the following effects.

A substantially central portion in the longitudinal direction of one substantially rectangular corrugated cardboard is defined as a rectangular bottom portion having a width substantially equal to the width in the short direction, and a portion connected to the bottom portion is vertically raised from the bottom portion. The two side portions are bent, and the ends of the both side portions are bent to form an upper surface portion parallel to the bottom surface portion. At the four corners of the bottom surface portion and the upper surface portion, projections protruding from the bottom surface portion and the upper surface portion are provided. The carton pad is structured so that the parabolic reflector of the BS antenna is sandwiched between the bottom part and the top part, so that the carton pad can be composed of cardboard, so it is inexpensive and has no concern for environmental pollution. Pads are obtained.

By providing cut portions cut from both sides on the two side portions, the side portions also have a cushion function.

A plurality of slits extending from the bottom surface to the top surface are opened in the side portion, thereby further enhancing the cushioning function of the side portion.

By providing ears on the two sides in the elongate direction of the bottom surface which are approximately half the height of the side surfaces, a cushion function against shocks in a direction perpendicular to the elongate direction is provided. You can have.

The length of the side of the upper surface in the longitudinal direction is:
The length of the bottom surface is longer than half of the length of the side in the same direction, and both upper surfaces are engaged at a position corresponding to substantially the center of the bottom surface. A long slit is opened in the vicinity of a position corresponding to the approximate center of the tongue, and a tongue having a width capable of being inserted into the slit by notching both ends at a corresponding side of the other upper surface is provided. Is inserted into the same slit so that both upper surfaces are engaged with each other, so that a carton pad that is easy to pack can be obtained.

At the approximate center of the one upper surface, two parallel folds are provided, and the tongue is inserted into the slit to stand upright, and the primary radiator side of the arm of the BS antenna is sandwiched between the folds. By inserting and holding the antenna mounting side of the arm in the hole opened in the tongue, the arm, which is an accessory of the BS antenna, can be easily packed.
