Description

Egg close case {Egg close case}

The present invention relates to a case for close contact with eggs, and more specifically, by providing an upper cover for close contact with eggs, which can closely protect eggs without inserting a separate inner protection plate, thereby ensuring stable transportation of eggs and convenient storage. It relates to a case for close contact with eggs that can provide.

In general, egg cases are manufactured so that eggs can be transported safely while maintaining freshness since they are prone to breaking or rotting. The typical form is a main body with a 30-piece egg seat made of pulp material and PVC (PVC) on the top. Covers made of materials such as ), PP, or PET are manufactured individually and are mainly used to package and distribute eggs produced in farms in large quantities.

However, these egg cases are suitable for use by production farms for mass distribution, but looking at recent consumption trends, large supermarkets, etc. are packaged in small quantities of about 10 or, for example, boiled eggs, are packaged in sets of at least 2 to 3 pieces. There is also.

This small packaging container consists of a main body provided with an egg seat on which eggs are placed, and a cover formed with an egg groove corresponding to the egg seat and connected to the main body by a folded portion.

The egg case constructed in this way is made of synthetic resin material or pulp mold, and the egg is placed on the egg seat, and the cover connected to one side is rotated around the folded portion to cover and secure it.

However, although these egg cases have the advantage of improving the convenience of product transactions as well as preservability, they have various problems in transportation and storage.

In other words, since the body and the cover are packaged with the folded portion as the axis and sealed using a stapler, there is a problem in that fresh air from the outside does not flow into the egg case, and the eggs contained therein easily rot.

Additionally, conventionally, eggs were transported, transported, or stored while being placed in an egg carton made of paper with a storage groove formed thereon.

However, transportation or storage using the above-described conventional egg carton had the following problems.

First, conventional egg cartons are manufactured to specifications that add an appropriate amount of space based on the size of the egg to accommodate everything from large eggs to small eggs, so there is a lot of space at the top, but there is no part to properly hold the top of the egg, so this is used. When transporting, the eggs are not properly fixed to the egg carton and are shaken left, right, up and down, and if this shaking gets worse, the eggs will eventually be damaged and the eggs will lose their vitality during the distribution process due to severe vibration, thus disrupting the egg's life cycle. There was a problem with (life cycles) etc.

Second, in the past, because the sizes of stored eggs varied, there was a problem in that eggs of different sizes could not be placed.

Therefore, a new style of packaging case was needed that could stably hold the top of the egg and at the same time seat the egg regardless of its size.

A case for adhering eggs according to an embodiment of the present invention,

A main body (100) with at least one support protrusion (110) protruding from the upper surface and a plurality of egg seats (120) on which eggs are placed centered on the support protrusion (100).

A cover 200 connected to the main body with a folded portion 210 and rotating to open and close the main body, and forming a locking hole 220 on the side; and

A vertical extension fastening portion 300 formed perpendicularly to a certain length on the upper side of the main body;

It is formed horizontally to a certain size on one inner surface of the vertical extension fastener, and has a locking protrusion 430 on one side that can penetrate the locking hole 220 formed in the cover, and is located at a position corresponding to the egg seat. It is characterized in that it is configured to include an egg upper cover portion 400 in close contact with the egg upper cover protruding portion 410 formed to cover the upper part of the egg 10.

At this time, the thickness of the vertical extension fastening portion 300 is,

It is characterized in that it is formed thinner than the thickness of the main body 100 and the cover 200.

At this time, an egg upper exposure hole 420 is formed on the upper side of the egg upper cover protrusion 410 so that a portion of the upper part of the egg is exposed to the outside.

At this time, by forming the egg upper exposure hole 420, the egg can be protected regardless of its size.

At this time, in the egg close contact upper cover part 400,

It is characterized by forming a support protrusion through-hole portion 430 formed at the area where the support protrusion 110 is located to allow the support protrusion to penetrate.

At this time, the egg close contact upper cover part 400,

By being connected to the vertical extension fastening portion 300, there is no need to provide a separate internal protective plate to protect the egg.

Hereinafter, the egg close contact case according to the present invention will be described in detail through examples.

Figure 1 is a perspective view of the egg adhesion case before egg placement according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Figure 2 is a perspective view of the egg adhesion case after seating the egg in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.

Figure 3 is an illustration of a cover covered with an egg seated in an egg close contact case according to an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in Figure 1, the case for close contact with eggs includes a main body 100, a cover 200, a vertical extension fastening part 300, and an upper cover part 400 for close contact with eggs.

To explain specifically, the main body 100 has at least one support protrusion 110 protruding from the upper surface, and is recessed with a plurality of egg seats 120 on which eggs are placed centered on the support protrusion. It is characterized by

For example, the main body is the part that stores the egg, and has a circular, polygonal, or square shape in plan.

At this time, at least one support protrusion 110 is protruding from the upper surface, and a plurality of egg seats 120 on which eggs are placed are arranged around the support protrusion.

Here, the egg seat is formed to be depressed downward so that the egg can be stably housed and seated.

In addition, the support protrusion 110 forms a height so that its upper end can reach the bottom of the cover 200 when the main body 100 is covered by the cover 200, which will be described later.

Therefore, when a pressing force or impact occurs on the cover 200, the support protrusion 110 supports the cover 200 to prevent damage to the egg.

In addition, the cover 200 is connected to the main body through a folded portion 210 and rotates to open and close the main body, and a locking hole 220 is formed on the side.

In the example of the present invention, two locking holes are formed at regular intervals.

And, the vertical extension fastening portion 300 is formed perpendicularly to a certain length on the upper side of the main body.

For example, it is formed vertically on one upper surface of the main body, that is, at a position opposite to the folded portion, with a certain length, that is, a height of about 1 to 5 cm.

In addition, the egg-close upper cover part 400 is formed to have a certain size horizontally on one inner surface of the vertical extension fastening part.

At this time, locking protrusions 430 that can penetrate the locking hole portion 220 formed in the cover are formed on one side at regular intervals.

Therefore, by inserting the locking protrusion into the locking hole, the eggs stored inside are prevented from leaving.

At this time, as shown in Figures 1 and 2, a protrusion 410 for an egg top cover is formed at a position corresponding to the egg seat to cover the top of the egg.

For example, the egg upper cover protrusion 410 covers the egg from 1/3 to 2/3 of the way to the upper surface, thereby providing a secondary protection effect.

In general, there is a limit to preventing damage to eggs stored inside with the cover alone due to load during egg transport or stacking, so currently, inserting a separate inner protective plate to provide secondary protection for the eggs is required. Since it was performed separately, there was a problem of increased packaging work time.

In addition, conventional egg cartons do not have a part to properly hold the top of the egg, so when transported using this, the eggs are not properly fixed to the egg carton and end up shaking. If the shaking gets worse, the eggs eventually break away from the egg carton and break. There was a problem.

Therefore, in the present invention, by constructing the egg-close upper cover portion 400 as described above, the problems of the conventional case can be solved at once.

Meanwhile, according to an additional aspect, the thickness of the vertical extension fastening portion 300 is,

It is characterized in that it is formed thinner than the thickness of the main body 100 and the cover 200.

This is to enable natural movement when the egg-adhering upper cover part 400 is moved to the upper side of the egg or away from the upper side of the egg.

Meanwhile, according to another additional aspect, an egg upper exposure hole 420 is formed on the upper side of the egg upper cover protrusion 410 so that a portion of the upper part of the egg is exposed to the outside.

In other words, by forming the egg upper exposure hole 420, the egg can be protected regardless of its size.

Conventionally, because the size of stored eggs was fixed, there was a problem in that eggs of different sizes could not be placed.

Therefore, as described above, by forming the egg top exposure hole 420, it is possible to stably hold the top of the egg and at the same time provide the advantage of being able to seat the egg regardless of its size.

Meanwhile, according to another additional aspect, in the egg-close upper cover portion 400,

It is characterized by forming a support protrusion through-hole portion 430 formed at the area where the support protrusion 110 is located to allow the support protrusion to penetrate.

That is, because the support protrusion 110 penetrates the support protrusion through-hole portion 430, it provides the advantage of stably fixing the egg-closed upper cover portion 400.

Meanwhile, in the present invention, the egg-close upper cover part 400,

By being connected to the vertical extension fastening portion 300, there is no need to provide a separate internal protective plate to protect the egg.

Through this, eggs can be closely protected without inserting a separate inner protective plate, providing the effect of stably transporting eggs and providing convenient storage.

In addition, by providing a double protection structure, durability is increased due to vibration, external shock, or heavy pressure during transportation.

Meanwhile, when manufacturing egg packaging containers, the main material, plastic sheet or pulp molding, is mixed with 1 to 2% of bentonite powder, which is known to have excellent antibacterial properties, and goes through a mixing process.

Hereafter, since the packaging container manufacturing process is the same as the prior art, detailed description will be omitted.

Therefore, by going through the mixing process as described above, it provides the effect of minimizing the growth of harmful bacteria and molds that can parasitize eggs.
