DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a paper partition as a structure interposed between a plurality of articles and serving as a partition for adjacent articles.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art For example, when boxing articles such as beverages and foods in cans, glass bottles and foods in containers, etc.
Partitions are used to secure the articles in place. Conventionally, plastic moldings have been most frequently used as partitions, but there have been problems with collection and reuse, and problems with the environment when incinerated.

[0003] For this reason, paper partitions are increasing, but the conventional paper partitions are supplied in sheets, and when packing the articles, an operator folds and creates partitions.
There is a problem that the work must be advanced, and the workability is not good. In addition, it has been pointed out that the partition structure obtained by such an operation is simple and does not reach the function of the partition of the plastic molded product.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and has as its object the same function as a plastic partition, and the space required for stacking and storing. Another object of the present invention is to provide a paper partition which can save the space and has good workability when packing articles. Another object of the present invention is to provide a paper partition in which disposal after use can be easily performed together with boxes and cases.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention is directed to partitioning an article from a backing sheet having a punched portion formed on all or a part of a boundary of a plurality of storage sections for arranging articles. Attached to both sides of the punched part, a partition body having a tapered cross-sectional shape is integrally combined, and in a non-use state, the lower partition body enters the partition body from the mount punching part of the upper one. In this case, a means is adopted in which they can be overlapped.

[0006]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS A paper partition according to the present invention is a structure interposed between a plurality of articles and serving as a partition for adjacent articles. Since the partition has a raised portion interposed between the articles and has a three-dimensional structure, a large space is required for storage. Further, it is desirable that the partition not only be interposed between the articles but also have a structure capable of fixing the articles. In order to be able to fix an article, a more complicated three-dimensional structure is required, and the feature of the present invention resides in that this is compatible with not requiring a large space for storage.

A paper partition according to the present invention is constituted by integrally combining a backing sheet and a partition body, and the backing sheet is formed by a punching section formed on all or a part of a boundary of a plurality of storage sections for arranging articles. Having. That is, the mount has a storage portion where the articles are arranged, and forms a punched portion at the boundary between the storage portion and the adjacent storage portion. The punched portion does not necessarily have to be formed at the entire boundary of the storage portion, but is always formed at the boundary of the location where the partition is provided.

[0008] The partition body is a member attached to both sides of the punched portion to partition the article, and has a tapered cross-sectional shape. The divider must be attached to the backing over both sides of the punch. The partition body to be attached has a tapered cross-sectional shape, which facilitates fitting of the upper and lower partition bodies when paper partitions are overlapped. Therefore, in other cases, the cross-sectional shape may not be tapered. For example, when the article is placed in the storage section, both ends of the article hit the partition, and the sectional shape of the partition changes, but in this case, the sectional shape of the partition is tapered when no external force is applied. Also takes a form that changes depending on the state of contact with the end of the article. The changing form of the partition contributes to fixing the article, buffering external force acting on the article, and the like.

In order to change the cross-sectional shape of the partition, a deformable portion can be provided on the upper part of the mounting piece which is means for mounting the partition on the backing paper. This deformed part is deformed under the load of the article when placing the article in the storage section,
It is desirable that the deformation reaction be exerted on the article to increase the fixing force.

The partition body may be a single member,
A plurality of members may be used. The single member is a blank formed by punching out one sheet of paper material and providing partitions corresponding to a plurality of storage portions, and corresponds to, for example, the one shown in FIG. On the other hand, the partition body composed of a plurality of members corresponds to a blank configured to surround one article by a combination of a plurality of independent members, and is shown in, for example, FIG.

[0011] Such a mount and the partition body are combined integrally, so that the lower partition member of the paper partitions stacked vertically enters the partition body from the mount punching portion of the upper one and fits. It is in a state of being stuck. Therefore, the partition body has a three-dimensional structure protruding upward from the surface of the mount, but since the parts of the three-dimensional structure are fitted and stacked, the height is increased only by the thickness of the paper material, and therefore, for storage, The space is required only for the three-dimensional structure, but the increase is only for the thickness of several sheets, so the space is saved.

[0012]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows a paper partition according to the present invention and related objects.
It is stored in a box 33 with two.

The paper partition 10 according to the present invention comprises a mount 11
And a partition 15. The backing paper 11 is shown in FIG. 2 as a blank 12 obtained by punching a single sheet of paper material, and has a punched portion 14 formed at the boundary between a plurality of storage portions 13 by punching. The punching portion 14 has the same planar shape as the partition body 15 so that the lower partition body 15 can enter when the paper partitions 10 are vertically stacked.
In FIG. 2, the center part of the storage unit 13 is in a state in which four circumferences are surrounded by the punching unit 14, but the fixed position is maintained by integrally combining the upper partition bodies 15.

The partition 15 is also shown in FIG. 2 as a blank 16 also punched out of one sheet of paper.
The blank 16 of the partition body 15 has a top ridge 1 having the same shape as a boundary portion formed in substantially the same planar shape as the punched portion 14.
7 and the partition wall 1 hangs down from both sides.
8 are provided, and attachment pieces 19, 19 for attaching to the mount 11 are provided at lower end portions of the partition walls 18, 18.
Therefore, the mounting pieces 19, 19 are adhered to both sides of the punched portion 14 of the mount 11, and the partition body 15 and the mount 11 are attached.
When these are combined, there is nothing obstructing from the bottom of the mount 11 to the inner top of the partition 15 (see FIG. 5).

The partition body 15 has a narrower top ridge 17 than the base, and has a tapered cross section (see FIGS. 4 and 5). In addition, the deformable portion 2 is provided above the mounting pieces 19,19.
Since 0 is provided, the cross-sectional shape becomes a two-step tapered shape, and the deformed portion 20 contributes to further reduce the form variation of the tapered cross-sectional portion following the top ridge 17. FIG. 5 shows the partition members 15 of several paper partitions 10 stacked one on top of the other, and it can be seen that the upper ones are stretched up and down, and the lower ones are bent so that the deformed part 20 approaches horizontal. .

In the case of the first embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 6, the partition body 15 is shown as having the mounting piece 19 attached to the upper surface of the mount 11. However, the mounting piece 19 may be arranged below the mount and attached to the lower surface of the mount 11, examples of which are shown in FIGS. In this case, it is assumed that only the attaching piece 19 is attached to the mount by means such as bonding so that the deforming portion 20 is located at the punching portion 14 and is deformable.

Therefore, when the article 31 is placed in the storage section 13,
The article 31 is depressed by its own weight or is pressed down, and the partitioning body 15 pushes back the end face of the article 31 by the reaction thereof, so that the article 31 is also firmly fixed. This operation is exactly the same whether the partition body 15 is attached to the upper surface of the mount 11 or to the lower surface of the mount 11 (see FIGS. 6B and 7B). In addition, when stacked, a plurality of partition bodies 15 ...
Are fitted to each other at the tapered portion and fixed to each other so that the whole can be handled integrally.

FIG. 9 et seq. Shows a second embodiment of a paper partition 10 comprising a mount 21 and a plurality of vertical and horizontal partitions 25, 25 '.
Is shown. The mount 21 has a punched portion 24 punched into one blank 22 as in the first embodiment,
The punching portion 24 is a boundary surrounding the storage portion 23.
Since the partition body is divided into vertical and horizontal partition bodies 25 and 25 ', the layout of the partition surrounding the storage portion 23 becomes more free, and there is no need to punch out one sheet material.
It is easy to increase the number.

In the second embodiment as well, the article 31 is placed in the storage section 23 surrounded by the vertical partition 25 and the horizontal partition 25 ', but each partition 25, 25' is independent. , The heights to the top ridges 27 and 27 ′ also change independently of each other, so that the followability to the stored articles 31 is good. For this reason, the meat steal portion 26 is formed in accordance with the position of the punched portion 24 so that the vertical partition members 25 ', 25' are more easily deformed.

The vertical and horizontal partition members 25 and 25 'have deformed portions 30 and 30', respectively, and the mounting piece portions 29 and
The point of attachment at 29 'to the mount 21 by means such as bonding is the same as in the first embodiment. Since the large slit-shaped portion of the punched portion 24 is formed on the mount 21, the paper partition 10 as a whole is easily deformed in the front-rear and left-right directions. Also in the second embodiment, when the article 31 is placed in the storage section 23, the deformed sections 30 and 30 'are pushed downward, and the partitioning bodies 25 and 25' push back and fix the end face of the article 31 by the reaction. Is the same as in the first embodiment. Reference numerals 28 and 28 'denote partition walls.

In the above embodiment, only the example in which the periphery of the article 31 is surrounded by the vertical and horizontal partition members 15, 25,... Has been described. Or, it is arranged in one horizontal row, but includes a case where no partition body is interposed between the articles. That is, the article 31 only needs to be partitioned by the partition members 15, 25,...

[0022]

Since the present invention is constructed and operates as described above, it has a function equivalent to that of a plastic partition in that the article can be stably held. Instead of stacking heights, the lower ones enter the upper ones,
It is possible to save the space required for storage by increasing the stacking thickness for several sheets of paper material, and it is advantageous in that workability is good because there is no need to assemble when packing articles. In addition, the paper partition according to the present invention can be disposed together with boxes and cases after use, so that there is no problem of reuse or disposal, and there is no adverse effect on the environment.
