Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, the use of foam increases costs and is not suitable for disposal of used containers other than where they are received
Although it is desirable that such a container has a non-expanded structure in the state before use so as to facilitate transportation, the container in JP-A-7-6173 is inflated and thus has the problem of occupying space.

Embodiment 1

[0070] Next, the best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings. Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a fresh-keeping container 1 of the present invention, Fig. 2 is an expanded view of the fresh-keeping container in Fig. 1 , and Fig. 3 is a sectional view of A-A in Fig. 2 . The fresh-keeping container 1 is provided with a container body 10 formed of corrugated cardboard (thick paper) and a bag portion 20 fixed in the container body 10 .

[0071] The container main body 10 is provided with a cover 12 having a water filling port 11 (which also serves as a receiving port for receiving flowers such as cut flowers) and a pair of supporting legs 13 , 13 formed at both ends of the cover 12 . The bag portion 20 is formed of a flexible water-impermeable sheet (for example, a polyethylene sheet) that can hold water.

[0072] As shown in FIG. 2, a pair of supporting leg portions 13, 13 are formed on both sides of th...

Embodiment 2

[0087] FIG. 8 is a perspective view of Embodiment 2, and FIG. 9 is an expanded view of the fresh-keeping container 50 in FIG. 2 . The storage container 50 includes a container body 60 formed of corrugated cardboard (thick paper), a bag portion 20 fixed to the container body 60 , and a frame 70 (connection member) detachably attached to the container body 60 .

[0088] As shown in FIG. 9 , the frame 70 is formed of corrugated cardboard (thick paper) and is substantially rectangular as a whole, and the lengths of the long sides 71, 71 are the same as the length of the long side 15 of the cover portion 12, and one of the long sides 71 is Above, a pair of groove portions 73 , 73 (notch portions) parallel to the short sides 72 , 72 are formed at positions separated from the short sides 72 , 72 . A trapezoidal notch 74 is formed between the pair of grooves 73 , 73 , and protrusions 75 , 75 protruding from the long sides 71 are formed at portions where the notch connects to the groov...

Deformed example 1

[0096] Fig. 12 shows a modified example of the fresh-keeping container. Fig. 13 is a sectional view of B-B in Fig. 12 . The following modifications are added to Embodiments 1 and 2 (taking FIG. 8 representing Embodiment 2 as an example). In this fresh container 80 , a reinforcement member 91 made of corrugated cardboard is annularly fixed by a joint member outside the opening peripheral edge of the cover side water inlet 11 under the cover 12 of the container body 90 . In a state where the lid side water injection port 11 and the bag side water injection port 28 communicate with each other on the lower surface of the reinforcement member 91 , the overlapping upper sheet 23 in the bag portion 20 is fixed by the joining member. That is, a part of the reinforcing member 91 forms a bonding surface between the lid portion 12 and the bag portion 20 . In FIGS. 12 and 13, parts having the same functions as those in Embodiment 2 (FIG. 8) are denoted by the same reference numerals, an...

Abstract

A container for retaining freshness and a water storage bag for the container. The container (1) comprises a container body (10) formed of a corrugated fiberboard and a bag part (20) fixed to the container body (10). The container body (10) further comprises a cover part (12) having a water filling port (11) also served as a storage port for storing flowering plants such as cut flowers and a pairof support leg parts (13) and (13) formed at both ends of the cover part (12). The bag part (20) is so formed that both end parts of a sheet are bound to each other by a covered binding, and the cover part (12) is joined to the bag part (20). Water is filled in the bag part (20), and the cut stem end part of a cut flower (41) is inserted into a water portion (42) in the bag part (20). Since the stem portion of the cut flower (41) is held by the long tongues (18) and (18) and short tongues (19) and (19) of the water filling port (11) portion of the cover part (12), the cut flower can be held in a stood state in a shipping box (40). Thus, the container can be easily recycled, efficiently stored and transported without increasing its volume, and stably hold flowering plants also during the transportation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a fresh-keeping container for fresh flowers and a water-absorbing bag thereof. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, as containers for keeping cut flowers and potted flowers fresh, non-corrugated paper, plastics, and various containers combining these materials have been used. When transporting fresh flowers from the place of production to the market etc. in a fresh state, it is most suitable to transport fresh flowers in an upright state. For example, as shown in Japanese Unexamined Publication No. 7-6173, a container suitable for transportation made of foamed plastics has been proposed. [0003] Patent Document 1: Publication No. 7-6173 [0004] However, the use of foamed plastics increases costs and is not suitable for disposal at the disposal of used containers other than where they are received. Although it is desirable that such a container has a non-expanded structure in a state before use to facilitate transp...
