DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0009] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described based on the drawings. Figure 1The storage box 1 is an overall three-dimensional view of a storage box 1 for storing weldable bead toys. The storage box 1 imitates a generally flat-plate-shaped bag with thick walls as a whole, and comprises: a main body 11 having the function of storing weldable bead toys, and an arc-shaped (or arched) handle 12 connected to the main body 11. The storage box 1 has the function of storing weldable bead toys and weldable bead toy sets such as a production table 5 described later, a bead toy pen (not shown), and a sprayer (not shown), and a function as a work tool for placing the production table 5 to produce a collection of weldable bead toys (weldable bead toy assembly). In addition, in the description of the storage box 1 of the present embodiment, the cover 3 side of the storage box 1 is set as the top, the opposite box body 2 side is set as the bottom, the handle 12 side is set as the back, and the opposite side is set as the front. In addition, the storage box 1 viewed from the cover 3 side is Figure 1 The left side of is set as Left, and the opposite side is set as Right.

[0010] The weldable bead toy is formed of a water-soluble resin. Specifically, the weldable bead toy is formed by mixing polyvinyl alcohol with a resin. In addition, the resin forming the weldable bead toy can be any transparent material, a light-transmitting material, or an opaque material. In addition, the weldable bead toy can be in various shapes such as a sphere, a polyhedron, or a star.

[0011] The storage box 1 includes a box body 2 and a sliding cover 3 that is opened and closed by moving relatively to the box body 2 . Figure 2 1 is a top perspective view of the box body 2. The box body 2 has a storage body 21 as a part of the main body 11. The storage body 21 has a bottom plate 22 and outer walls 23 (23a to 23d) erected from the front and rear edges and left and right edges of the bottom plate 22, and is formed in a substantially rectangular flat plate shape with an opening at the top.

[0012] The storage main body 21 has a plurality of storage chambers 41 and 42 which are divided by rib-shaped partitions 241, and the rib-shaped partitions 241 are arranged in a plane direction including up and down and left and right. The storage chambers 41 and 42 are mainly formed as a cubic space which is roughly rectangular when viewed from above, and have the function of storing fusible bead toys. The storage chambers 41 and 42 include a first storage chamber 41 with a relatively shallow bottom and a second storage chamber 42 with a bottom deeper than the bottom of the first storage chamber 41 according to the height of the partition 241. The storage main body 21 of this embodiment has 9 first storage chambers 41 and 22 second storage chambers 42. The upper ends of the partitions 241 forming the plurality of first storage chambers 41 located on the roughly central side of the storage main body 21 are formed to be located on a roughly flat surface. The partition 241-1 of a portion of the first storage chamber 41 located on the front side is shared with the partition 241-1 of a portion of the second storage chamber 42 adjacent thereto.

[0013] The storage body 21 is provided with a production table storage section 43 on the opening side, i.e., above, of the plurality of first storage chambers 41. The production table storage section 43 can store the production table 5 of the fusible bead toys described later so as to be loadable and detachable. The production table storage section 43 has a plurality of supporting surfaces 241a, 241b and a plurality of supporting ribs 242, 243 for supporting the side surfaces of the production table 5. The supporting surface 241a of the partition wall 241-1 located on the front side of the box body 2 and the supporting surface 241b of the partition wall 241-2 located on the rear side of the box body 2 are arranged relative to each other in the front-to-back direction, limiting the movement of the production table 5 in the front-to-back direction. In addition, the partition wall 241-2 separates the shallow-bottomed first storage chamber 41 in the front-to-back direction, and is formed by a height substantially the same as that of the partition wall 241 of the second storage chamber 42.

[0014] A snap plate 244 is formed on a part of the front support surface 241a, and the snap plate 244 supports the production table 5 by pushing it in the front-to-back direction (i.e., the front-to-back width direction of the production table 5). The snap plate 244 is formed into a roughly rectangular leaf spring shape with the lower end as a fixed end and the upper end as a free end by providing two slits roughly parallel to each other from the upper end of the partition wall 241-1. Figure 5 As shown, an engagement protrusion 244a is formed on the support surface 241a side of the engagement plate 244 in the width direction (left-right direction) of the engagement plate 244. The engagement protrusion 244a has a substantially triangular cross-sectional shape with a gentle slope at the free end side of the engagement plate 244 and a steep slope at the base end side.

[0015] In addition, if Figure 2 As shown, the supporting surface 241b of the rear partition wall 241-2 also forms a locking protrusion 241b1 throughout the width direction (left-right direction) of the partition wall 241-2. The locking protrusion 241b1 has a substantially triangular cross-sectional shape with a gentle slope on the free end side of the partition wall 241-2 and a steep slope on the base end side. The locking protrusions 244a and 241b1 arranged front and rear are arranged at positions of substantially the same height in the up-down direction.

[0016] The support ribs 242 and 243 are adjacent to the production table storage section 43 and are formed at the end of the partition walls 241-3 and 241-4 formed in the left-right direction on the production table storage section 43 side where a part is cut away. In other words, the support ribs 242 and 243 are formed by cutting out a part of the second storage chamber 42. The support ribs 242 and 243 are arranged opposite to each other in the left-right direction to restrict the movement of the production table 5 in the left-right direction. The four support ribs 242 arranged on the front side of the box body 2 have a limiting edge 242a erected in the up-down direction and a C-chamfered inclined edge 242b. Since the inclined edge 242b is arranged opposite to each other on the left and right sides, the left-right width of the production table storage section 43 becomes wider as it goes upward. Therefore, when the user stores the production table 5 in the production table storage section 43, the production table 5 is guided by the inclined edge 242b, and the production table 5 can be easily placed in the production table storage section 43.

[0017] The two support ribs 243 disposed at the rear side of the box body 2 have a limiting edge 243a erected in the vertical direction similarly to the limiting edge 242a. The interval between the limiting edges 243a opposite to each other on the left and right is substantially the same as the interval between the limiting edges 242a opposite to each other on the left and right. Therefore, the inner width of the production table storage portion 43 in the left and right direction is set by the intervals between the limiting edges 242a and the limiting edges 243a. The support rib 243 has a rectangular cutout 243b at the corner of the upper end side.

[0018] The box body 2 has a first guide portion 44 formed by cutting the outer wall 23b, which is a part of the second storage chamber 42 on the rear side, into a substantially rectangular shape. The first guide portion 44 is provided at two left and right locations. In addition, when viewed from the back, the support ribs 242 and 243 are prevented from interfering with the opening area of ​​the first guide portion 44 by the cutout portion 243b or the inclined edge portion 242b.

[0019] Figure 3 2 is a bottom perspective view of the box body 2. The outer decoration part 221 of the bottom plate 22 is formed in a generally flat shape as a whole, but is decorated by a concave and convex shape. Specifically, the outer decoration part 221 has a convex surface 221a that is rectangular in a plan view and has a small height difference and is in the shape of a quadrangular pyramid. There are a plurality of convex surfaces 221a arranged in the front and back and left and right directions. In addition, the outer decoration part 221 has a decorative part 221b that imitates a belt. The decorative part 221b is provided at both left and right locations and covers the front and back.

[0020] The box body 2 has rib-shaped grounding portions 251, 252, and 253 (first grounding portions) protruding downward at the four corners of the outer packaging portion 221 and at two locations on the left and right inner sides of the front of the outer packaging portion 221. The grounding portion 251 provided at the corner portion in front of the outer packaging portion 221 is formed into a flat plate extending in the left-right direction. The grounding portion 252 provided at the corner portion in the rear of the outer packaging portion 221 includes a straight portion 252a and a curved portion 252b connected to one end of the straight portion 252a at different angles. The straight portion 252a is formed to be inclined backward from the inside to the outside in the left-right direction of the box body 2.

[0021] In the front of the box body 2, two grounding portions 253 provided at the inner side of the grounding portion 251 are formed in a flat plate shape extending in the front-rear direction. The grounding portions 253 are arranged parallel to each other.

[0022] The box body 2 has a second guide portion 26 in the outer decoration of the left and right outer walls 23c and 23d. The second guide portion 26 is formed to protrude from the outer walls 23c and 23d in a track shape and spread over the front and back. The second guide portion 26 is arranged near the upper edge of the outer walls 23c and 23d. In addition, the outer decoration of the outer walls 23c and 23d has an edge rib 261 extending downward from the front end of the second guide portion 26.

[0023] Each of the left and right second guide portions 26 has two engaging portions 262A and 262B (262) at a portion of the rear of the box body 2 (see also Figure 1 AA cross-sectional enlarged view of the embodiment). The engaging parts 262A and 262B of the present embodiment are engaging protrusions protruding from the end surface of the second guide part 26 opposite to the second guided part 37. In other words, the engaging parts 262A and 262B of the second guide part 26 on the left side protrude to the left side, and the engaging parts 262A and 262B of the second guide part 26 on the right side protrude to the right side. In addition, a slit-shaped through hole 263 is provided in a part of the second guide part 26 on the base end side of the engaging parts 262A and 262B. Thus, the engaging parts 262A and 262B are supported by the base in the shape of a double-supporting leaf spring, and are configured to be able to be pushed in the protruding direction. The engaging parts 262A and 262B are formed to be able to overcome the elastic force and move toward the base side, that is, the sinking direction.

[0024] When the cover 3 is restricted or released to the closed state, the engaging portion 262A engages with or disengages from the engaged portion 372A on the cover 3 side. In addition, when the cover 3 is restricted or released to the open state, the engaging portion 262B engages with or disengages from the engaged portion 372B on the cover 3 side. The positional relationship between the engaged portion 372A and the engaged portion 372B is shown in FIG. Figure 4 shown.

[0025] Back to Figure 2The box body 2 has a quadrangular column-shaped restriction protrusion 27 protruding upward at the front end. When the cover body 3 is relatively slid forward relative to the box body 2, the restriction protrusion 27 restricts the movement of the cover body 3 forward.

[0026] In addition, the restricting protrusion 27 is formed into a hollow shape having an opening at the bottom. Figure 6 As shown, the hollow portion 271 of the limiting protrusion 27 is a rectangular parallelepiped space that is long from left to right. A plurality of ribs 272 are provided inside the hollow portion 271. The ribs 272 are arranged in the left and right directions at approximately equal intervals so that the plate surface faces the left and right directions. The intervals between the ribs 272 are set to be smaller than the diameter of the above-mentioned fusible bead toys. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the fusible bead toys from entering the hollow portion 271. For example, it is assumed that in the case where the hollow portion 271 does not have the ribs 272, the wet fusible bead toys enter the deep bottom space such as the hollow portion 271 and stick to the hollow portion 271. In this way, it is difficult for the user to remove the fusible bead toys. In the present embodiment, since the box body 2 has a plurality of ribs 272 arranged at intervals with a width smaller than that of the weldable bead toy in the hollow portion 271 formed in the externally exposed portion as a weight-reducing portion, the weldable bead toy can be prevented from entering the hollow portion 271. Furthermore, by making the limiting protrusion 27 hollow, the box body 2 can be made lighter, the material can be reduced, and the productivity can be improved.

[0027] The structure of the cover 3 is described in detail below. Figure 1 As shown, the cover body 3 includes a top plate 31 that can be opened and closed to close the opening side of the box body 2, and side plates 32 that extend downward from the left and right ends of the top plate 31. The top plate 31 has a setting portion 311 on the same outer side surface 31a as the exposed surface, and the setting portion 311 is provided with a production table 5 for the fusible bead toys; and a loading surface 312, which includes a rough surface 313a and dries the assembly of the fusible bead toys.

[0028] The installation part 311 has a guide part 7b1 (also see Fig. 9 The guide portion 311a is engaged with the production table 5 to position the production table 5 (see the enlarged view of the C portion of the cover 3). The guide portion 311a is a curved plate-shaped protrusion protruding upward from the outer side surface 31a of the cover 3. The guide portion 311a is arranged corresponding to the four corners of the rectangular flat plate-shaped production table 5.

[0029] The outer side surface 31a has a plurality of first convex surfaces 313 with a rough surface 313a and a plurality of second convex surfaces 314 with a smooth surface 314a. The first convex surface 313 and the second convex surface 314 are convex surfaces protruding in the normal direction (upward direction) of the outer side surface 31a, and the boundary portions between them are formed as concave portions. In addition, the first convex surface 313 and the second convex surface 314 are gently convexly curved at least in the left and right directions when viewed from above, and have substantially the same shape. The outer side surface 31a arranges the first convex surface 313 or the second convex surface 314 in a straight line relative to the front-to-back direction and the left-to-right direction of the storage box 1. The directions in which the first convex surface 313 or the second convex surface 314 are arranged in a straight line are the front-to-back direction and the inclined direction of the front-to-back left and right. In addition, the outer side surface 31a arranges the first convex surface 313 and the second convex surface 314 alternately in a straight line while staggering them in the front-to-back direction. That is, the first convex surface 313 and the second convex surface 314 of the present embodiment are configured in a 45-degree chimera shape. In addition, the first convex surfaces 313 and the second convex surfaces 314 are continuously connected in the front-to-back direction via the constricted portions 313b and 314b. Each constricted portion 313b and 314b is formed into a concave curved shape. The constricted portion 313b connecting the first convex surfaces 313 is adjacent to the convex curved portion of the second convex surface 314. Similarly, the constricted portion 314b connecting the second convex surfaces 314 is adjacent to the convex curved portion of the first convex surface 313.

[0030] The cover 3 of this embodiment is formed of resin, and the smooth surface 314a is formed to be able to reflect external light in a mirror manner to a certain extent, and has a glossy feel. The rough surface 313a is given fine concave and convex, and is formed to suppress the mirror reflection of external light compared to the smooth surface 314a and to be able to diffusely reflect, and has a matte feel. The rough surface 313a may also be a surface that has been subjected to a sun-textured process. The rough surface 313a is a surface that can prevent or reduce the fusible bead toys from drying and sticking even when the fusible bead toys in a wet state come into contact.

[0031] In addition, the first convex surface 313 and the second convex surface 314 each have a substantially L-shaped protrusion 31b bent near the center of the first convex surface 313 and the second convex surface 314. The protrusion 31b protrudes beyond the surface of the first convex surface 313 and the second convex surface 314. The protrusion 31b is provided at two locations on the first convex surface 313 and the second convex surface 314, one of which extends forward and rightward, and the other extends backward and leftward.

[0032] The placing surface 312 is an area for drying the wetted assembly. The placing surface 312 is provided on both left and right sides of the setting portion 311. In addition, the placing surface 312 has a first convex surface 313 including a rough surface 313a on the central side in the front-to-back direction relative to the setting portion 311. As described later, the production table 5 provided in the setting portion 311 has an assembly discharge portion 51 at the left and right ends on the central side in the front-to-back direction. Therefore, the rough surface 313a of the placing surface 312 is provided on the discharge portion 51 provided on the production table 5 (by the first workbench side inclined surfaces 65 on the left and right sides of the first workbench 6 (refer to Fig.10 ) and the ears 71 in the unfolded state are arranged continuously in a roughly flat shape. Therefore, the user can directly arrange the assembly made on the production table 5 on the mounting surface 312 by sliding it to the right or left side of the mounting surface 312. On the other hand, the user can withdraw the assembly from the production table 5 without waiting for drying, so the production of the next assembly can be started quickly.

[0033] In addition, the aggregate of the weldable bead toys is made relatively large, and when the aggregate is placed across the plurality of protrusions 31b on the placement surface 312, the contact between the aggregate and the first convex surface 313 or the second convex surface 314 is prevented or reduced. Therefore, when the wet weldable bead toys are placed on the placement surface 312, it is possible to prevent or reduce the weldable bead toys from drying and sticking to the placement surface 312. In addition, the surface of the protrusion 31b can be formed of a smooth surface or a rough surface similar to the rough surface 313a and the smooth surface 314a.

[0034] The outer side surface 31a having the rough surface 313a has a larger area than other outer sides (for example, the outer side surface 32a of the side plate 32). Therefore, the cover 3 can ensure sufficient area for providing the installation portion 311 and the placement surface 312 on the same outer side surface 31a.

[0035] In addition, the outer side surface 32a has a bottomed, substantially hexagonal opening 315 in a portion of the second convex surface 314, and the opening 315 can be engaged and disengaged with a support member (not shown) connected to and supporting the assembly. The opening 315 is formed in the second convex surface 314 included in the region of the mounting surface 312. In addition, the outer side surface 31a has a flat display surface 316 formed in a long strip in the left-right direction across the first convex surface 313 and the second convex surface 134.

[0036] Figure 53 is a bottom perspective view of the cover body 3. When the cover body 3 is in a closed state where the top plate 31 covers the box body 2, an upper partition wall 332 is provided at a position opposite to the partition wall 241 of the first storage chamber 41 and the second storage chamber 42. The upper partition wall 332 is mainly extended along the front-back direction and the left-right direction on the inner surface of the cover body 3 and is formed into a rib shape. In the closed state of the cover body 3, the front, back, left and right spaces of each storage chamber 41, 42 of the box body 2 are closed by the partition wall 241 and the upper partition wall 332. At this time, the gap between the partition wall 241 and the upper partition wall 332 is set to be smaller than the fusible bead toy. Therefore, each storage chamber 41, 42 can prevent the fusible bead toy from leaking out.

[0037] The cover body 3 has a bead pen storage portion 33 capable of storing a bead pen (not shown) on the inner side of the left side plate 32. In addition, the cover body 3 has a sprayer storage portion 34 capable of storing a sprayer (not shown) on the inner side of the right side plate 32. Both the bead pen storage portion 33 and the sprayer storage portion 34 are concave storage spaces that open downward.

[0038] In addition, the cover body 3 has a production table storage section 35 on the central side in the left-right direction. The production table storage section 35 of the present embodiment functions as a cover covering the top of the folded production table 5. The cover body 3 has a first guided portion 36 that is slidably engaged with the first guide portion 44 of the box body 2 on the production table storage section 35 side of the inner surface of the top plate 31. The first guided portion 36 is formed in the shape of a rib of a flat plate protruding toward the first storage chamber 41 side and extending in the front-to-back direction. The left and right first guided portions 36 have an inclined portion 361 that is bent and connected to the inner side of the left-to-right direction of the cover body 3 at the front end portion in the sliding direction of the cover body 3, that is, the front-to-back direction. Through the inclined portion 361, the first guided portion 36 is formed in the shape of a plate with a bent front end. The rear end corner of the first guided portion 36 is formed in an R chamfered shape.

[0039] The cover 3 has a second guided portion 37 that is slidably engaged with the second guide portion 26 on the inner side of the inner wall 331 of the bead pen storage portion 33 and the inner surface of the inner wall 341 of the sprayer storage portion 34. Figure 3 In the figure, although the second guided portion 37 on the left inner wall 331 side is not shown, the second guided portion 37 on the inner wall 331 side is formed in a position and shape that is left-right symmetrical with the second guided portion 37 on the inner wall 341 side. The second guided portion 37 includes a plurality of protrusions 371 protruding in a facing manner on each inner wall 331, 341 and a recess formed by the inner surface of the top plate 31 of the cover body 3. The protrusions 371 are intermittently arranged in the front-rear direction on the second guided portion 37.

[0040] Therefore, the first guide portion 44 and the second guide portion 26 are formed in a direction different from the opening direction of the storage chambers 41 and 42 (in the present embodiment, the front-to-back direction) relative to the box body 2. In addition, the first guided portion 36 and the second guided portion 37 are also formed in a direction different from the opening direction of the storage chambers 41 and 42 relative to the box body 2.

[0041] The cover body 3 has a portion of the front side of the second guided portion 37 that can be engaged and disengaged by crossing the engaging portion 262. The engaged portion 372 is a protrusion formed in the up-down direction and arranged in the recessed portion of the second guided portion 37. The engaged portion 372A on one side is arranged at the rear of the second guided portion 37 (see Figure 1 and Figure 4 The other engaged portion 372B is provided in front of the second guided portion 37 (see Figure 1 and Fig.10 ).

[0042] The cover body 3 has a plurality of ribs 381 arranged at intervals of a width smaller than that of the weldable bead toy in the weight-reducing portion 38 formed in the rear end holding portion 3b as the externally exposed portion. The ribs 381 are arranged in the left and right directions at approximately equal intervals so that the plate surface faces the left and right directions. The intervals between the ribs 381 are set to be smaller than the diameter of the weldable bead toy. Therefore, the weldable bead toy can be prevented from entering the weight-reducing portion 38. In addition, the intervals between the ribs 381 are set so that even if the user (or player) of the storage box 1 is a child, it is difficult for the fingers to enter the inside of the weight-reducing portion 38, so that the cover body 3 can be lightweight, the material can be reduced, the productivity can be improved, etc., and the user can easily hold the hand even when placing the hand on the rear end holding portion 3b of the cover body 3, and can easily perform the opening or closing operation of the cover body 3.

[0043] The cover 3 has a cover 321 at the rear end of the left and right side plates 32 in the side of the box body 2. The cover 321 is bent inward in the left and right direction of the cover 3 when viewed from the back to cover a part of the sliding direction side of the cover 3. Therefore, the cover 3 is formed to reduce the left and right width as it moves toward the rear of the storage box 1. The cover 321 is formed at a position where a space (or gap) is provided between the cover 3 and the box body 2 when the cover 3 is in a closed state relative to the box body 2. When the cover 3 is in a closed state, the space (or gap) between the cover 321 and the box body 2 is set to be wider than the thickness of a child's finger, for example. The sliding direction of the cover 3 of this embodiment is a front-to-back direction different from the opening direction (up and down direction) of the storage chambers 41 and 42. Therefore, even when the cover 3 is moved to the moving end on the box body 2 side, it is possible to prevent the fingers from being pinched and closing poorly. Furthermore, by providing the cover portion 321 , the corner of the storage box 1 on the handle portion 12 side can be rounded with a reduced width, so that the storage box 1 can be formed in a shape having excellent design (or decorativeness) imitating a bag.

[0044] The cover body 3 has a convex arc-shaped grounding portion 333 (second grounding portion) at the lower portion which is chamfered at the front end side and the rear end side relative to the sliding direction of the cover body 3 (see also Figure 7 The grounding portion 333 is formed into a flat plate shape extending in the front and rear direction with the plate surface facing the left and right direction. In addition, the rear end edge of each grounding portion 333 has a bent portion 333a extending outward at a substantially right angle relative to the cover body 3. That is, the bent portion 333a of the left grounding portion 333 extends to the left, and the bent portion 333a of the right grounding portion 333 extends to the right.

[0045] In addition, the ground ends of the ground portions 251 , 252 , and 253 (first ground portions) and the ground portion 333 (second ground portion) are on the same plane. Figure 7 It is a right side view of the storage box 1 in the open state. The grounding parts 251 and 253 are arranged near the front end of the box body 2, the grounding part 333 is arranged near the rear end of the cover body 3, and the grounding part 252 is arranged near the rear end of the box body 2. Therefore, whether the cover body 3 is closed or opened, the storage box 1 can be stably placed on a setting surface such as a table.

[0046] Next, refer to Figure 8 , an example of a production table 5 that can be used with the storage box 1 of the present embodiment is described. The production table 5 is used to combine a plurality of fusible bead toys to produce an assembly. The production table 5 includes a first workbench 6 and a second workbench 7. The first workbench 6 is connected to the second workbench 7 via a pair of first hinges H1. The production table 5 is formed into a substantially rectangular plate shape by injection molding of a resin material, and the first workbench 6 and the second workbench 7 are respectively formed.

[0047] The first workbench 6 has a substantially square first workbench area 6R, and the second workbench 7 has a substantially square second workbench area 7R. The first workbench 6 and the second workbench 7 are formed in substantially equal sizes. In addition, the first workbench area 6R and the second workbench area 7R are also formed in substantially equal sizes. The first workbench 6 is configured to be able to overlap on the second workbench 7 by being bent using a pair of first hinges H1.

[0048] Below, in Figure 8 In the description of the production table 5, the side where the first work table 6 overlaps with the second work table 7 is referred to as the upper side, and the opposite side thereof is referred to as the lower side. The side on which the first hinge H1 is provided when the production table 5 is observed from the upper side is referred to as the front side, and the opposite side thereof is referred to as the rear side. The right side when the production table 5 is observed from the front side is referred to as the right side, and the opposite side thereof is referred to as the left side.

[0049] On the upper surface 6a of the first workbench 6 (refer to Fig.10 The second workbench 7 is provided with a paper holding portion (not shown) on the lower surface 7b of the second workbench 7, which can hold paper with a pattern or the like. The pattern of the paper held by the paper holding portion can be seen from above the first workbench 6 through the overlapping second workbench 7 and the first workbench 6. Therefore, the user can configure the fusible bead toys according to the pattern of the paper.

[0050] First, the structure of the second workbench 7 is described. Figure 8 As shown, the second workbench 7 has ears 71 formed so as to extend outwardly from the left and right sides of the second workbench region 7R which is roughly square. The ears 71 are arranged in a plate shape which can be bent upward from the second workbench 7 via a thin-walled second hinge H2 in the front-to-back direction at the roughly central part of the outer edge of the extended portion.

[0051] On the left and right sides of the upper surface 7a of the second workbench area 7R, upper surface first low wall portions 72 having a low wall height are provided in the front-to-back direction. Plate guides 72A are provided on the upper surface first low wall portions 72. Two plate guides 72A are provided at each of the upper surface first low wall portions 72 at two locations at predetermined intervals in the front-to-back direction along the upper surface first low wall portions 72, and a total of four plate guides are provided.

[0052] On the outside of each plate guide 72A, a guide plate spring 72B is provided at a predetermined interval in the left-right direction from the plate guide 72A. The guide plate spring 72B is provided parallel to the plate guide 72A. A spring protrusion (not shown in detail) that slightly protrudes outward is provided on the upper portion of the outer surface of each guide plate spring 72B.

[0053] In the upper surface 7a of the second workbench area 7R, a set of two sides opposite to each other in the front-to-back direction are provided with upper surface second low wall portions 74 with low wall heights along the left-to-right direction. The height of the upper surface second low wall portion 74 is higher than the height of the upper surface first low wall portion 72, and lower than the heights of the plate guide 72A and the guide plate spring 72B. Restriction plate springs 74B having elasticity are provided at approximately the center portion in the left-to-right direction of each upper surface second low wall portion 74. Each restriction plate spring 74B is provided along the left-to-right direction so that the two plate surfaces face the front-to-back direction. A restriction protrusion (details not shown) that protrudes slightly inward is provided at the upper portion of the inner surface of each restriction plate spring 74B.

[0054] The first hinges H1 are arranged at a predetermined interval in the left-right direction on the front side of the second workbench 7. Each first hinge H1 is connected to the outer wall surface of the second low wall portion 74 on the upper surface of the front side. Each first hinge H1 is formed into a roughly rectangular sheet in which a thin-walled portion and a thick-walled portion are alternately arranged in the connection direction, and has flexibility. In addition, a plurality of pins 76 standing upward are provided on the upper surface 7a of the second workbench 7. The plurality of pins 76 are arranged in rows and columns in a houndstooth-like configuration. Each pin 76 is formed into a roughly truncated cone with a slightly reduced diameter on the upper side.

[0055] On each ear portion 71 of the second workbench 7, a plurality of ribs 71a extending linearly in the left-right direction are provided at equal intervals in the front-to-back direction. In addition, a snap-on extension portion 71b slightly extending outward is provided at the front and rear ends of each ear portion 71. In a state where each ear portion 71 is not bent (open state), the upper surface of each ear portion 71 becomes an ear side inclined surface (inclined surface) 71c inclined from an area of ​​the second workbench 7 where a plurality of pins 76 are provided toward a setting surface where the second workbench 7 is provided. When the first workbench 6 and the second workbench 7 overlap, the ear side inclined surface 71c together with the first workbench side inclined surface 65 constitute the discharge portion 51.

[0056] Next, the structure of the first workbench 6 is described. The first workbench 6 is in the closed state (see also Fig. 9 ) The surface facing upward is the upper surface 6a. Therefore, when the first workbench 6 is opened Figure 8 In the state, the upper surface 6a of the first workbench 6 faces downward, and the lower surface 6b faces upward. In the first workbench 6, the left and right sides of the first workbench area 6R, which is roughly square, extend outward, and guide holes 62, which are rectangular through holes long in the front-to-back direction, are provided at the four corners of the extended part.

[0057] On the outer side of each guide hole 62, there is a Figure 8The protrusion 64 is a flat plate-shaped protrusion 64 protruding from the front (the bottom in the figure). Each protrusion 64 has a rising portion (the details are not shown) that raises the plate surface toward the left and right directions, and an extension portion 64B that is bent approximately at a right angle toward the outside from the top of the rising portion and extends approximately in a plate shape. That is, the protrusion 64 is formed into a roughly L-shape that is bent toward the left and right outside when viewed from the front or rear. The top edge of each extension portion 64B is formed into a roughly arc shape. In addition, the top portion of each extension portion 64B is respectively provided with an engaging protrusion 64B1 that protrudes toward the inside in the front and rear direction and engages with the ear portion 71 of the second workbench 7.

[0058] A first table side inclined surface 65 is provided between two guide holes 62 arranged in the front-rear direction among the four guide holes 62. Each first table side inclined surface 65 is formed to be inclined from the upper surface 6a side of the first table 6 to the lower surface 6b side toward the outside. When the first table 6 is overlapped on the second table 7, the ear portion 71 is in a non-bent state, and the first table side inclined surface 65 and the ear side inclined surface 71c form an inclined surface (discharge portion 51) that is continuous from the setting surface of the production table 5 to the left and right sides.

[0059] The first workbench 6 is provided with a plurality of through holes 66, which are circular openings and have the vertical direction (plate thickness direction) as the through direction. Each through hole 66 is provided at a position that overlaps with each pin 76 provided on the second workbench 7 in the vertical direction when the first workbench 6 is closed (see Figure 8 ). Therefore, the rows and columns of each through hole 66 are arranged in a houndstooth pattern. The opening of each through hole 66 is sized to allow each pin 76 to be inserted. In other words, each pin 76 is formed to be able to be inserted and removed from each through hole 66. In addition, the opening diameter of each through hole 66 is one circle smaller than the diameter of the fusible bead toy. Therefore, the fusible bead toy can be placed on the opening edge of each through hole 66.

[0060] The lower surface 6b of the first workbench 6 is provided with a wall-like edge wall 68 erected downward along the outer edge of the first workbench region 6R. In the edge wall 68, approximately in the left-right center of the inner wall surface on the two opposite sides in the front and rear directions, there are respectively provided step-shaped protrusions 68a that protrude inwardly by providing a step between the lower surface 6b of the first workbench 6. In the upper surface 6a of the first workbench 6, portions corresponding to each step-shaped protrusion 68a are respectively provided with step-shaped recesses 68b that are recessed to form a step. The above-mentioned pair of first hinges H1 are connected to the outer edge portion of the upper surface of the first workbench 6 on both sides of the step-shaped recess 68b on one side.

[0061] The first table 6 and the second table 7 can be assembled by bending a pair of first hinges H1 so that the lower surface 6b of the first table 6 overlaps with the upper surface 7a of the second table 7 and inserting the guide plate spring 72B and the plate guide 72A through the guide hole 62 (see Fig. 9 ). The opening edge of the guide hole 62 is guided by approaching or contacting the inner side surface of the plate guide 72A and the outer side surface of the guide plate spring 72B. In other words, the guide hole 62, the guide plate spring 72B and the plate guide 72A guide the first workbench 6 and the second workbench 7 in the vertical direction so that they can approach or move away from each other.

[0062] The first workbench 6 is restricted from moving upward by the engagement of the step-shaped recesses 68b with the restriction protrusions of the restriction plate springs 74B. When the first workbench 6 is in a state where the guide plate spring 72B and the plate guide 72A are inserted through the guide hole 62 and before the step-shaped recesses 68b are engaged with the restriction plate spring 74B, the guide hole 62 is located above the spring protrusion protruding to the outside of the guide plate spring 72B. In this state, the first workbench 6 and the second workbench 7 are separated by a predetermined interval in the vertical direction by the abutment between the spring protrusion and the edge of the guide hole 62, and each pin 76 is maintained in a state of being removed from each through hole 66.

[0063] Next, a method for making a collection of weldable bead toys using the production table 5 and an example of using the storage box 1 are described. First, the user prepares the production table 5 in the following manner: the first workbench 6 is overlapped on the second workbench 7, the first workbench 6 and the second workbench 7 are separated or slightly contacted at a predetermined interval in the vertical direction, and each pin 76 is in a state of being detached from each through hole 66. In this state, a paper with an arbitrary pattern recorded on the paper holding plate of the second workbench 7 is held. Thus, the user can visually recognize the pattern from the first workbench 6 side. Next, the production table 5 with the first workbench 6 overlapped on the second workbench 7 is set on the setting portion 311 of the cover body 3. At this time, the front-back and left-right movement of the production table 5 relative to the cover body 3 is restricted by engaging the guide portion 311a with the concave guided portion 74b set at the four corners of the lower surface 7b of the second workbench 7.

[0064] Next, a plurality of fusible bead toys are placed on the through holes 66 of the first table 6 that correspond to the arbitrary pattern written on the paper (the through holes 66 that overlap the pattern). Fig. 9The storage box 1 shown is used to make the assembly from the rear side (inner side). That is, from the perspective of the player, the production table 5 is arranged on the front side, and the storage chambers 41 and 42 of the fusible bead toys as components are arranged at a position closer to the inner side than the production table 5. By making the assembly in such a positional relationship, it is easy for the player to take out the fusible bead toys and arrange them on the production table 5. In addition, from the perspective of the player, since the box body 2 having a plurality of storage chambers 41 and 42 can be arranged on the inner side of the production table 5, the overview of various fusible bead toys can be improved. In addition, when the assembly is arranged and the work of wetting with water is completed, the loading surface 312 is located on the left or right side of the field of vision of the player to see the assembly, so that the assembly can be easily retreated from the production table 5. Furthermore, since the side surface of the rear side of the cover body 3 is formed in a concave curved shape, the loading surface 312 is arranged around the player's body, which can ensure a wide working area for the player.

[0065] When the fusible bead toy is placed on the through hole 66, the top end of the pin 76 is lightly in contact with or separated from the fusible bead toy without contact. After placing only the necessary amount of multiple fusible bead toys, the user sprays water on the multiple fusible bead toys through a sprayer or the like to make them wet. The excess water sprayed on the first workbench 6 is accumulated on the second workbench 7 through the through hole 66 or the like. The wetted aggregate can slide on the first workbench side inclined surface 65 and the ear side inclined surface 71c (discharge portion 51) and move to the loading surface 312. Therefore, it is possible to effectively dry on the setting surface. The ear 71 is configured so that the wetted aggregate can easily move while sliding on the ear side inclined surface 71c by means of the rib 71a provided on the ear side inclined surface 71c.

[0066] Next, when the first table 6 is pressed toward the second table 7 by pressing the extension 64B downward with both hands, the first table 6 approaches the second table 7. At this time, since the guide plate spring 72B is pushed toward the plate guide 72A by the inner edge of the guide hole 62 that abuts against the spring protrusion protruding outward, and is bent, the guide hole 62 can pass over the spring protrusion and the guide plate spring 72B can be deeply inserted. When the guide hole 62 passes over the spring protrusion, the top end (lower end) of the edge wall 68 abuts against the upper surface 7a of the second table 7, thereby restricting the movement of the second table 7 toward the first table 6.

[0067] In addition, the top end of the edge wall 68 abuts against the upper surface 7a of the second workbench 7, and the top end of each pin 76 penetrates each through hole 66, abutting the weldable bead toy placed on the through hole 66 in a manner of pushing it up from the bottom. As a result, the weldable bead toy is relatively pushed up relative to the upper opening edge of each through hole 66. The weldable bead toy is separated from the upper opening edge of each through hole 66 supported, and the support provided by each through hole 66 is released. At this time, the plurality of weldable bead toys of the assembly are combined to a degree that they can be held by hand. Therefore, the user can remove the assembly from the production table 5.

[0068] The assembly separated from the through hole 66 is moved by the user while sliding on the ear side inclined surface 71c and placed on the placement surface 312. The placement surface 312 is provided with concavities and convexities at a relatively wide interval on the outer side surface 31a through the first convex surface 313 and the second convex surface 314. In addition, the protrusion 31b is formed on the first convex surface 313 and the second convex surface 314. Therefore, in the case where the interval between the concavities and convexities of the assembly as a whole is larger than that of the first convex surface 313 and the second convex surface 314, the contact area with the rough surface 313a or the smooth surface 314a can be reduced, and even if the assembly placed on the placement surface 312 is in a wet state, it can be prevented from accidentally sticking to the outer side surface 31a of the cover body 3. In addition, even if the assembly contacts the first convex surface 313 and is placed on the placement surface 312, since the first convex surface 313 has the rough surface 313a, it can be prevented from sticking to the outer side surface 31a. In addition, although the adhesion strength of the smooth surface 314a is higher than that of the rough surface 313a, even if the aggregate contacts the smooth surface 314a, since the aggregate is usually made larger than a continuous area of ​​the smooth surface 314a, it will not adhere to the smooth surface 314a and will be difficult to detach from the outer side surface 31a.

[0069] A usage example in which the storage box 1 stores the fusible bead toys and the production table 5 will be described. Fig.10 1 is a top perspective view of the storage box 1 in the opened state in which the production table 5 is stored. Fig.10 , the through hole 66 of the production table 5 and the pin 76 inserted through the through hole are simplified. The region P is the region where the through hole 66 is arranged, as shown in the enlarged view of the Q portion, indicating that a plurality of through holes 66 are arranged in the region P. The storage box 1 in the open state is, as shown in the enlarged view of the BB section, the engaged portion 372B passes over the engaging portion 262B from the bottom to the top of the figure and the cover body 3 moves to the open state.

[0070] The production table 5 is stored in the production table storage section 43 in a state where the first workbench 6 is folded to overlap with the second workbench 7 by the first hinge H1, and the ear portion 71 is also bent toward the first workbench 6. The side opposite to the ear portion 71 of the production table 5 is supported from the left and right directions by the support ribs 242. The side of the production table 5 adjacent to the ear portion 71 (i.e., the side opposite to the limiting plate spring 74B side) is supported from the front and rear directions by the support surfaces 241a and 241b. In addition, the engaging protrusion 244a (see Figure 5 ) is formed on the support surface 241a of the snap plate 244 that can be pushed forward and backward. Therefore, when the production table 5 is stored in the production table storage part 43, the front side of the production table 5 can overcome the elastic force through the support surface 241a and bend forward, thereby passing over the snap projection 244a and moving into the production table storage part 43 below. On the other hand, the support surface 241b on the rear side of the production table 5 is a substantially fixed structure, but the rear side of the production table 5 can also pass over the snap projection 241b1 by bending the support surface 241a of the front snap plate 244 forward.

[0071] In this way, the movement of the production table 5 stored in the production table storage section 43 in the left-right direction is restricted by the support ribs 242, and the movement in the front-back direction is restricted by the support surfaces 241a and 241b. The lower surface of the production table 5 is supported by the upper edge of the partition wall 241 of the first storage chamber 41 in the production table storage section 43. In addition, the upward movement of the production table 5 is restricted by clamping the side of the production table 5 by the support ribs 242 or the support surfaces 241a and 241b, or by the engagement of the engaging protrusions 241b1 and 244a with the upper edge of the production table 5. The exposed surface of the production table 5 stored in the production table storage section 43 is lower than the upper ends of the partition walls of the plurality of second storage chambers 42, and is arranged approximately parallel to the upper ends.

[0072] When the production table 5 is stored in the production table storage portion 43 , the opening side of each first storage chamber 41 is covered and sealed, so that the fusible bead toys stored in the first storage chamber 41 can be prevented from leaking out.

[0073] In addition, a gap S is provided between the ear portion 71 of the production table 5 and the inclined edge portion 242b of the support rib 242. The gap S is provided on the front-rear extension line of the first guide portion 44. Therefore, the gap S also functions as a part of the first guide portion 44 that guides the first guided portion 36.

[0074] After the production table 5 is stored in the production table storage portion 43, if the user moves the cover 3 relatively toward the box body 2, Figure 1 As shown in the AA cross-sectional view of FIG. 1 , the engaged portion 372A passes over the engaging portion 262A from the upper side to the lower side of the figure, and the cover body 3 moves to the closed state position.

[0075] According to the above-mentioned embodiment of this invention, the storage box for the fusible bead toy of the following aspect can be provided.

[0076] A storage box for weldable bead toys of a first embodiment includes: a box body having a first guide portion, a second guide portion, and a plurality of storage chambers for storing weldable bead toys, the first guide portion being formed by cutting out a portion of the storage chamber, the second guide portion being provided on an exterior portion; and a cover body having a first guided portion and a second guided portion, the first guided portion being slidably engaged with the first guide portion and protruding toward the storage chamber, the second guided portion being slidably engaged with the second guide portion. The first guide portion, the second guide portion, the first guided portion, and the second guided portion are formed in a direction different from the opening direction of the storage chamber relative to the box body.

[0077] According to this mode, since the movement of the cover body relative to the box body can be stabilized, users such as children can easily open and close the cover body. Therefore, a storage box that is easy to take out and store storage objects (weldable bead toys, production tables, etc.) can be formed.

[0078] In the storage box for weldable bead toys according to the second aspect, the first guided portion is formed in a plate shape with an end portion in a sliding direction of the cover body being bent.

[0079] According to this method, even if the ears of the production table are not sufficiently bent when the production table is stored in the box body, the first guiding portion can easily and reliably guide the first guided portion because the bent end of the first guided portion can push the ears inward in the width direction of the box body.

[0080] A third embodiment of a storage box for weldable bead toys comprises a box body having a first grounding portion, a cover having a second grounding portion chamfered relative to a sliding direction of the cover, and grounding ends of the first grounding portion and the second grounding portion being on the same surface.

[0081] According to this mode, the storage box can be stably placed on the placement surface regardless of whether it is in a closed state or an open state. In addition, since the second setting portion is chamfered, the cover can be prevented from damaging the table when the cover is opened or closed. Furthermore, the user can also open and close the cover safely.

[0082] In a fourth aspect of a storage box for weldable bead toys, the box body has an engaging portion at a part of the second guide portion, and the cover has an engaged portion at a part of the second guided portion that can be engaged and disengaged by passing over the engaging portion.

[0083] According to this aspect, the storage box can prevent the cover from being opened and closed unintentionally from the box body, and stabilize the cover in either the open state or the closed state.

[0084] In a fifth aspect of the storage box for a fusible bead toy, the box body or the cover has a plurality of ribs arranged at intervals having a width smaller than that of the fusible bead toy in a lightening portion formed in the externally exposed portion.

[0085] According to this method, the fusible bead toys can be prevented from entering the weight-reducing part provided in the storage box. In addition, by providing the weight-reducing part, the cover 3 can be made lighter, the material can be reduced, the productivity can be improved, and even when the user puts his hand on the rear end gripping part of the cover, the ease of gripping can be improved.

[0086] In the storage box for the weldable bead toys according to the sixth aspect, the cover has an upper partition wall, and when the cover is in a closed state relative to the box body, the upper partition wall faces the partition wall of the storage chamber.

[0087] According to this aspect, the volume of the storage chamber can be increased when the lid is closed, while preventing the fusible bead toy from leaking out of the storage chamber.

[0088] The seventh aspect is a storage box for weldable bead toys, wherein the cover body has a hood portion covering a portion of the side surface of the box body on the sliding direction side of the cover body, and the hood portion is formed at a position where a space is provided between the cover body and the box body when the cover body is in a closed state relative to the box body.

[0089] According to this mode, when closing the lid, a space (gap) remains between the lid and the box body, thereby preventing interference with the user's fingers and hindering the closing action of the lid. In addition, the storage box can prevent the fingers from being caught and improve safety.

[0090] An eighth aspect of a storage box for weldable bead toys, wherein the box body has a first grounding portion, the cover body has a second grounding portion that is R-chamfered relative to the sliding direction of the cover body, the grounding ends of the first grounding portion and the second grounding portion are on the same plane, the box body has a snapping portion on a portion of the second guide portion, and the cover body has a snapping portion on a portion of the second guided portion that can be snapped and disengaged by crossing the snapping portion, the box body or the cover body has a plurality of ribs arranged at intervals of a width smaller than that of the weldable bead toys on a weight reduction portion formed on an externally exposed portion, the cover body has an upper partition wall, and when the cover body is in a closed state relative to the box body, the upper partition wall is opposite to the partition wall of the storage chamber, the cover body has a cover portion that covers a portion of the side surface of the box body on the sliding direction side of the cover body, and the cover portion is formed at a position where a space is provided between the cover body and the box body when the cover body is in a closed state relative to the box body.

[0091] According to this mode, the storage box can be stably placed on the loading surface in either a closed state or an open state. In addition, since the second setting portion is R-chamfered, the cover can be prevented from damaging the table or the like when the cover is opened and closed. Furthermore, the user can also safely open and close the cover. In addition, the storage box can prevent the cover from accidentally opening and closing from the box body, so that the cover is stabilized in any state of the open state or the closed state. In addition, it is possible to prevent the fusible bead toys from entering the weight reduction portion provided in the storage box. In addition, by providing the weight reduction portion, it is possible to achieve lightweighting of the cover, reduction of materials, improvement of productivity, etc., and even when the user puts his hand on the rear end gripping portion of the cover 3, it is possible to improve the ease of use such as the ease of gripping. In addition, it is possible to increase the volume of the storage chamber in the closed state of the cover, while preventing the fusible bead toys from leaking from the storage chamber. In addition, when the cover is closed, since there is a space (gap) remaining between the cover and the box body, it is possible to prevent interference with the user's fingers and hinder the closing action of the cover. In addition, the storage box can prevent fingers from being caught and improve safety.

[0092] For example, the outer side surface 31a may arrange one of the first convex surface 313 and the second convex surface 314 in a straight line with respect to the front-back direction and the left-right direction of the storage box 1.

[0093] In addition, in the storage body 21 of the present embodiment, the bottom of the second storage chamber 42 is deeper than the bottom of the first storage chamber 41. Therefore, by making the opening surface of the first storage chamber 41 as viewed from above larger than the opening surface of the second storage chamber 42 as viewed from above, the difference in storage volume between the first storage chamber 41 and the second storage chamber 42 can be reduced.
