Detailed Implementation
[0029] The embodiments of this utility model are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Figure 1 This is a front 3D view of storage box 1 for storing welded bead toys. Additionally, Figure 2 This is a 3D view of the back of storage box 1. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The storage box 1 indicates the storage state where the various parts are folded and stored.
[0030] The storage box 1 for weldable bead toys mimics a generally flat handbag with thick walls. The storage box 1 has a main body 11 and an arc-shaped (or arched) first handle 12 connected to the main body 11. The storage box 1 functions to store weldable bead toys, as well as a workbench 6 (described later), a ballpoint pen (not shown), a sprayer (not shown), and other weldable bead toy assembly, and also functions as a work tool for creating weldable bead toys using the workbench 6 (welded bead toy assembly). Furthermore, in the description of the storage box 1 in this embodiment, the side with the first handle 12 is designated as the top, and the opposite side as the bottom; the side with the buckle 111 is designated as the front, and the opposite side as the back. Additionally, the left side viewed from the front of the storage box 1 is designated as the left, and the opposite side as the right.
[0031] Weldable beads are formed from water-soluble resins. Specifically, they are made by compounding polyvinyl alcohol into a resin. Furthermore, the resin used to form weldable beads can be any material, including transparent, translucent, or opaque materials. Weldable beads can also be in various shapes, such as beads, polyhedrons, or stars.
[0032] Storage box 1 has a first storage box 2 and a second storage box 3 that respectively simulate a handbag (see reference). Figure 2 The first storage box 2 has an outer box 4, an inner storage component 5 that can slide relative to the outer box 4, and a first handle 12. The second storage box 3 has a second handle 31 and is configured to slide relative to the first storage box 2 and be stored in the first storage box 2 in a manner that protrudes towards the back of the first storage box 2 (see also...). Figure 2 The second storage box 3 is configured to be detachable from the first storage box 2.
[0033] The outer box 4 has: a generally rectangular plate-shaped outer body 41 that is longer on the left and right sides and slightly narrower towards the top; and generally rectangular plate-shaped side wall portions 42 (42a, 42b) (an example of the first and second side wall portions), which are connected to the left and right ends of the outer body 41 and are erected facing the back of the storage box 1. Therefore, the outer box 4 is formed as a frame with an opening on the back side (see also...). Figure 3 A decorative part with an imitation strap and a buckle 111 is provided on the front side of the outer body part 41.
[0034] Figure 3This is a perspective view of the back of the outer packaging box 4. On the opposing inner surfaces 421 (an example of the first and second inner surfaces) of the left sidewall 42a and the right sidewall 42b, respectively, there are first guide portions 422 and second guide portions 423 extending linearly in the vertical direction of the storage box 1. Furthermore, the first guide portions 422 and 423 on one sidewall 42b are configured to be symmetrical to the first guide portions 422 and 423 on the other sidewall 42a. The first guide portions 422 and 423 are formed into grooves by multiple ribs 422a, 422b, 423a, and 423b on the inner surface 421. The first guide portion 422 is located on the front side of the storage box 1, and the second guide portion 423 is located near the bottom of the back side of the storage box 1, relative to the first guide portion 422.
[0035] The first guide portion 422 has an engaging portion 422c on the upper side of the storage box 1, which is lower than the ribs 422a and 422b. The engaging portion 422c is a rib that connects the rib 422a on the front side and the rib 422b on the back side. In addition, the first guide portion 422 has a limiting wall 422d on the inner side (upper side) of the engaging portion 422c, which restricts the movement of the internal storage component 5 relative to the outer box 4 in the storage direction (upward).
[0036] The second guide portion 423 has a concave opening 423e on the upper plate side of the outer body portion 41, which serves as the insertion end of the storage box 1. Additionally, the second guide portion 423 has a limiting wall 423d on its inner (lower) side that restricts the movement of the second storage box 3 relative to the outer box 4 in the storage direction. Furthermore, the left and right side wall portions 42a and 42b have rectangular flat limiting portions 423f extending inwardly from opposite ends on the rear side. The limiting portions 423f abut against the shoulders 335 located on both sides of the second handle portion 31 of the second storage box 3, restricting the downward movement of the second storage box 3 stored in the first storage box 2 (outer box 4).
[0037] The left and right sidewall portions 42a and 42b have elongated left and right grounding protrusions 425 and elongated top and bottom grounding protrusions 426 on the outer surface of the back side of the storage box 1. The grounding protrusions 425 are located on the lower end side of the outer box 4. The grounding protrusions 426 are located on the upper end side of the outer box 4. In addition, as described later, the inner storage component 5 has multiple grounding protrusions 552a on the back side of the support component 55. Each grounding protrusion 425, 426, and 552a is located on a generally flat surface. Therefore, when the storage box 1 is placed on the back side, it is stably supported by the four grounding protrusions 425, 426, and 552a.
[0038] Figure 4 This is a front 3D view of the internal storage component 5. Figure 5This is a perspective view of the back of the internal storage component 5. The internal storage component 5 is generally formed as a long rectangular flat plate, and has multiple storage chambers 52a and 52b for the weldable bead toys. The internal storage component 5 has the aforementioned first handle portion 12 at its upper end. A production table storage portion 51 is formed on the inner and lower side of the internal storage component 5 in the left-right direction. This production table storage portion 51 is housed within a production table 6 for the weldable bead toy assembly, which is recessed into a roughly long rectangular shape in the thickness direction of the internal storage component 5. The production table storage portion 51 is a folded production table 6 recessed within the internal storage component 5 (see reference). Figure 7 The internal storage component 5 has a space with a thickness of 5. In addition, the internal storage component 5 has a rectangular opening 511 that is continuous with the lower end of the worktable storage part 51.
[0039] Figure 6 This is a 3D view of the unfolded production table 6. Figure 7 This is a perspective view of the folded production table 6. The production table 6 is used as a workbench for connecting weldable bead toys to create an assembly. The production table 6 includes a first workbench 61 and a second workbench 62. The first workbench 61 is connected to the second workbench 62 via a pair of first hinges H1. The first workbench 61 and the second workbench 62 of the production table 6 are each formed into a generally rectangular plate of approximately equal size.
[0040] The first worktable 61 has a generally square first worktable area 61R, and the second worktable 62 has a generally square second worktable area 62R. Furthermore, the first worktable area 61R and the second worktable area 62R are formed to be approximately equal in size. The first worktable 61 is configured to be able to be bent by a pair of first hinges H1 and overlap the second worktable 62 (see reference). Figure 7 ).
[0041] Below, in Figure 6 In the description of the production table 6, the side of the first worktable 61 that overlaps with the second worktable 62 is designated as the upper side, and the opposite side is designated as the lower side. When viewing the production table 6 from above, the side with the first hinge H1 is designated as the front side, and the opposite side is designated as the rear side. When viewing the production table 6 from the front, the right side is designated as the right side, and the opposite side is designated as the left side.
[0042] On the upper surface 61a of the first worktable 61 (in Figure 7(The perspective view shows the back) It can hold multiple weld bead toys. The production table 6 is a toy in which multiple weld bead toys are arranged with various patterns, and the weld bead toys are joined together by spraying water with a sprayer or the like. The lower surface 62b of the second production table 62 is provided with a holding part (not shown) for holding production aids such as paper or sheets with patterns written on them. The pattern of the production aid held by this holding part can be viewed from above the first production table 61 through the overlapping second production table 62 and the first production table 61. Therefore, the user can arrange the weld bead toys according to the pattern of the production aid.
[0043] First, the structure of the second worktable 62 will be described. The second worktable 62 has ears 621 formed to extend outward to the left and right sides. The ears 621 are configured as plates that can be bent upward to the second worktable 62 via thin-walled second hinges H2.
[0044] Plate guides 622a are provided on the left and right sides of the upper surface 62a of the second workbench area 62R. Two plate guides 622a are provided on each side of the second workbench area 62R at predetermined intervals, for a total of four.
[0045] A leaf spring-shaped guide plate 622b is provided on the outer side of each plate guide member 622a. The guide plate 622b is arranged parallel to the plate guide member 622a. A spring protrusion (details not shown) that protrudes slightly outward is provided on the upper part of the outer side surface of each guide plate 622b.
[0046] On the upper surface 62a of the second workbench area 62R, elastic limiting plates 624 are provided on opposite sides in the front-rear direction. The limiting plates 624 are located approximately at the center in the left-right direction of the second workbench 62. Each limiting plate 624 has a limiting protrusion (details not shown) that slightly protrudes inward on the upper part of its inner surface.
[0047] The first hinge H1 is flexible and is formed into a generally rectangular sheet shape. Additionally, a plurality of upward-pointing pins 625 are provided on the upper surface 62a of the second worktable 62. The plurality of pins 625 are arranged in a zigzag pattern in rows and columns.
[0048] Each ear portion 621 of the second workbench 62 has multiple ribs 621a that extend linearly in the left-right direction at equal intervals along the front-back direction. Additionally, each ear portion 621 has a slightly outwardly extending engaging protrusion 621b at both its front and rear ends. In the open state (without bending the ear portions 621), the upper surface of each ear portion 621 forms an ear-side inclined surface 621c (inclined surface) that slopes laterally from the second workbench region 62R of the second workbench 62, which has multiple pins 625. When the first workbench 61 and the second workbench 62 overlap, the ear-side inclined surface 621c, together with the first workbench side inclined surface 613, forms a discharge portion.
[0049] The structure of the first worktable 61 will be described. The first worktable 61 is in the closed state (see also...). Figure 7 The surface facing upward is the upper surface 61a. The first worktable 61 has rectangular through holes, i.e. guide holes 611, at the four corners of the portion extending outward from the first worktable area 61R to the left and right sides.
[0050] Each guide hole 611 has an upward-facing ( Figure 6 The inner side of the second worktable 62 has a flat, protruding portion 612. At the top of each protrusion 612, there is a locking protrusion 612a that protrudes inward in a forward-backward direction. The locking protrusion 612a can engage and disengage with the ear portion 621 of the second worktable 62.
[0051] A first worktable-side inclined surface 613 is provided between two guide holes 611 arranged in the front-back direction. Each first worktable-side inclined surface 613 is formed to slope outward from the upper surface 61a side to the lower surface 61b side of the first worktable 61. With the first worktable 61 superimposed on the second worktable 62, by making the ear 621 in a non-bent state, the first worktable-side inclined surface 613 and the ear-side inclined surface 621c can form a continuous inclined surface from the setting surface of the production table 6 to the left and right sides.
[0052] The first worktable 61 has multiple through holes 614 with circular openings and a vertical (thickness direction) through-hole orientation. Each through hole 614 is positioned to overlap vertically with each pin 625 of the second worktable 62 when the first worktable 61 is closed (see reference). Figure 7 Therefore, the rows and columns of the through holes 614 are arranged in a serrated pattern. The opening of each through hole 614 is large enough to allow insertion of each pin 625. In other words, each pin 625 is formed to allow insertion and removal relative to each through hole 614. In addition, the opening diameter of each through hole 614 is slightly smaller than the diameter of the weldable bead toy. Therefore, the weldable bead toy can be placed on the opening edge of each through hole 614.
[0053] The first worktable 61 has stepped protrusions 615 approximately at the center of the inner wall surfaces on both sides in the left-right direction. On the upper surface 61a of the first worktable 61, corresponding to each stepped protrusion 615, stepped recesses 616 are respectively provided to form steps. The first worktable 61 and the second worktable 62 can be assembled by bending a pair of first hinges H1, so that the lower surface 61b of the first worktable 61 coincides with the upper surface 62a of the second worktable 62, allowing the guide plate 622b and the plate guide member 622a to be inserted through the guide hole 611 (see reference). Figure 7 ).like Figure 7 As shown, the first worktable 61 and the second worktable 62 are engaged in an overlapping state by engaging with each stepped recess 616 and each limiting plate 624.
[0054] The folded worktable 6 can be removed by pushing out from below a plurality of interconnected weldable bead toys disposed in the through hole 614 using a pin 625 inserted through the through hole 614.
[0055] return Figure 4 On the upper side of the worktable storage section 51, there are engaging protrusions 512 on the left and right sides. The engaging protrusions 512 have an inclined surface on the opening 511 side. When the worktable 6 is inserted from the opening 511 side, the recess provided on the upper edge of the worktable 6 passes over the engaging protrusions 512 via the inclined surface. Therefore, the worktable 6 is stored in the worktable storage section 51 in an engaged state. This prevents the worktable 6 from accidentally falling out of the worktable storage section 51.
[0056] Multiple storage chambers 52a are arranged in a grid pattern at the bottom of the workbench storage section 51. Furthermore, the folded workbench 6 is detachably formed on the opening of the storage chamber 52a formed in the internal storage component 5 by being stored in the workbench storage section 51. Multiple storage chambers 52b are provided on the left and right sides of the workbench storage section 51. The storage chambers 52b are arranged vertically.
[0057] Additionally, the internal storage component 5 has a double-layer storage section 53 above the production table storage section 51. The double-layer storage section 53 includes a lower storage section 531 and an upper storage section 532. The lower storage section 531 is formed at the bottom of the internal storage component 5 and can store any tools (not shown) used for making assemblies of weldable bead toys, such as bead supply tools and sprayers.
[0058] Figure 8 This is a perspective view of the upper storage section 532. The upper storage section 532 is formed into a long, plate-like shape and has multiple storage chambers 532a capable of storing weldable bead toys. The upper storage section 532 can be detachably disposed inside the left and right elongated support frames 533 provided around the opening edge of the lower storage section 531.
[0059] The internal storage component 5 has a first guided portion 54 on its left and right outer surfaces 5a, which can slidably engage with the first guide portion 422. The first guided portion 54 is a protrusion that is rectangular in cross-section and extends in the vertical direction of the internal storage component 5. The first guided portion 54 has an engaging portion 541 at its upper end. The engaging portion 541 is configured to engage and disengage with the engaging portion 422c of the first guide portion 422.
[0060] Because the engaging portion 541 has an inclined surface on the side of the first handle portion 12, when the inner storage component 5 is stored into the outer box 4, the engaging portion 541 can easily engage by passing over the engaging portion 422c via the inclined surface. On the other hand, the portion of the engaging portion 541 opposite to the first handle portion 12 is erected approximately vertically from the side of the first guide portion 54. Therefore, by engaging with the engaging portion 422c of the first guide portion 422 and the limiting wall 422d side, the engaging portion 541 can prevent the inner storage component 5 stored in the outer box 4 from accidentally falling out.
[0061] like Figure 13 As shown, the internal storage component 5 includes support components 55 (55a, 55b), which are connected in a manner that allows them to rotate about a rotation axis P along the opening surfaces of the storage chambers 52a, 52b of the internal storage component 5. The support component 55 has a generally rectangular plate-shaped main body 551 parallel to the opening surfaces of the storage chambers 52a, 52b of the internal storage component 5, and a support portion 552 protruding from the main body 551 in the thickness direction of the main body 551. The support component 55 has multiple storage chambers 553 for weldable bead toys. A portion of the ribs dividing the storage chambers 553 of the support component 55 is formed in a star shape when viewed from the front of the support component 55.
[0062] Figure 9 This is a perspective view of the rear of support members 55a and 55b. The support portion 552 of each support member 55 is formed from the peripheral portion adjacent to the corner of the main body 551 on the rear side, which is the side opposite to the storage chamber 553. The length of the support portion 552 is formed to the rear of the storage box 1 (see also...). Figure 1 In other words, the bottom surface of the support portion 552 is formed to be the same plane as the back surface of the first storage box 2 (see reference). Figure 2 ).
[0063] The support portion 552 of the support member 55 is arranged radially outward in such a way that it protrudes toward the side of the inner storage member 5 at any rotation angle between the open state and the closed state relative to the inner storage member 5 (see reference). Figure 2 and Figure 13The support member 55 has a folded-back portion 554 that extends from the top end of the support portion 552 toward the rotation axis P.
[0064] Figure 10 This is a perspective view of the second storage box 3. The second storage box 3 is generally formed into a long rectangular flat plate. When the second storage box 3 is stored inside the first storage box 2, it has the aforementioned second handle portion 31 at its lower end. In addition, the second storage box 3 has multiple storage chambers 32 for weldable bead toys. The storage chambers 32 are arranged in a serrated (matrix) shape. A cover member storage portion 34 is formed on the inner side of the side wall 33 formed around the outer periphery of the second storage box 3. This cover member storage portion 34 stores the cover member 7, which can be attached and detached relative to the opening surface of the storage chamber 32, so that it can be attached and detached. A stepped portion 331 supporting the outer periphery of the cover member 7 is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the side wall 33 covering the outer periphery of the second storage box 3.
[0065] The second storage box 3 has protruding wall portions 35 on the outer surfaces of its left and right side walls 33. The protruding wall portions 35 are elongated rectangles in cross-section and are vertically extending convex portions. The opening side of the protruding wall portions 35 is wider than the bottom side of the storage chamber 32, so that the side walls 33 extend outwards from the second storage box 3. The protruding wall portions 35 also have plate-shaped second guide portions 351 extending along the left-right direction of the second storage box 3. The second guide portions 351 are formed along the entire length of the protruding wall portions 35. The second guide portions 351 engage with the second guide portions 423 in a slidable manner from a direction opposite to the mounting direction of the inner storage component 5 relative to the outer box 4 (downward direction: an example of the first direction) (upward direction: an example of the second direction).
[0066] Furthermore, the second storage box 3 has a slit-shaped opening 332 and a locking portion 333 on its upper and lower side walls 33 (when the second handle portion 31 is positioned upwards, these are the lower and upper side walls of the second storage box 3, respectively). A protrusion 332a is formed at the end of the side wall 33 corresponding to the opening 332 located on the side opposite to the second handle portion 31.
[0067] like Figure 10 As shown in the enlarged view of part B, a portion of the sidewall 33 of the engaging portion 333 on the side of the second handle portion 31 is formed in the shape of a cantilever spring plate. At the end of this spring plate-shaped sidewall 33, a flange portion 333a extending toward the second handle portion 31 is provided. The flange portion 333a functions as an operating part, which is used to release the engaging state between the engaging portion 333 and the engaged portion 712 when the cover component 7 stored in the cover component storage part 34 is removed.
[0068] like Figure 2As shown, the second storage box 3 has a cover member 36 installed on the front (the back relative to the storage box 1). The cover member 36 is installed to cover the approximately square recessed storage space of the second storage box 3. The cover member 36 is arranged diagonally up and down and left and right relative to the second storage box 3. The cover member 36 is formed into an approximately square plate shape and is made of a transparent or light-transmitting material. In the storage space covered by the cover member 36, works (assemblies) of welded bead toys can be stored, decorating the second storage box 3 or the entire storage box 1 on which the second storage box 3 is installed.
[0069] Furthermore, the second storage box 3 has grounding protrusions 334 at its four corners, each forming an approximately 90-degree arc. Each grounding protrusion 334 is arranged in approximately the same plane. Therefore, when the second storage box 3 is placed on its back, it is stably supported by the four grounding protrusions 334.
[0070] Figure 11 This is a planar perspective view of the cover component 7 in its unfolded state. Additionally, Figure 12 This is a planar perspective view of the cover component 7 in its folded state. The cover component 7 has a long rectangular flat body 71 and a manufacturing table 8 for making the assembly of weldable bead toys.
[0071] The main body 71 has a peripheral wall 711 that is erected on the side of the production table 8 around the outer periphery. In addition, a locking part 712 is formed on the outer surface of the lower end side of the peripheral wall 711, which can engage with the locking part 333 of the second storage box 3.
[0072] Except for being fixed relative to the main body 71, the production table 8 has a structure and function that are substantially the same as those of the production table 6. The production table 8 has a second worktable 82 fixed to the main body 71 and a first worktable 81 connected to the second worktable 82 via a pair of first hinges H1. Since the production table 8 has the same function as the production table 6, the same symbols are used for the same structures, and their descriptions are omitted or simplified.
[0073] In a specific correspondence, the first workbench 81 of production table 8 is equivalent to the first workbench 61 of production table 6, and the second workbench 82 of production table 8 is equivalent to the second workbench 62 of production table 8. For example... Figure 12 As shown, when the first worktable 81 is folded via the first hinge H1, the first worktable 81 is fixed relative to the second worktable 82 in a way that allows it to engage and disengage. In the folded state, the first worktable 81 is fixed at a position lower than the peripheral wall 711 and is stored inside the peripheral wall 711.
[0074] Next, the operation of storage box 1 will be explained. To unfold storage box 1 from its folded state, firstly, make... Figure 2The second storage box 3 shown moves upward relative to the first storage box 2. The second guided part 351 moves along the second guide part 423, and the second storage box 3 can be detached from the opening part 423e side.
[0075] Next, with the support member 55 in the closed state and the support portion 552 of the support member 55 located on the outer side of the second storage box 3 and the outer side in the outward direction D1, the support member 55 is moved in the outward direction D1 (refer to...). Figure 13 Pull out. The internal storage component 5, pulled by the support component 55, is pulled out from the outer box 4.
[0076] The movement of the internal storage component 5 in the outward direction D1 is restricted by the contact between the left and right engaging portions 541 of the internal storage component 5 and the inner edge 424b of the cutout portion of the base plate 424 formed in the first guide portion 422.
[0077] Next, as Figure 13 As shown, the left and right support components 55a and 55b, which are in the closed state, are rotated to the left and right sides around the rotation axis P along the circumferential direction D2 to become the open state.
[0078] With the storage box 1 in its stored state, the workbench 6 is stored in the workbench storage section 51, the upper storage section 532 is stored in the double-layer storage section 53, and the cover component 7 is stored in the cover component storage section 34. Since the main body 551 of the support component 55 opens the opening surfaces of the storage chambers 52b and 52a when the support component 55 is in the open state, the weldable bead toy (including the workbench 6 inside the workbench storage section 51) can be taken out.
[0079] Furthermore, by unfolding the storage box 1, the workbench 6, the upper storage section 532, and the cover component 7 can be removed from it. Thus, by arranging the storage chambers 52a, 52b, 553, 32, the workbench 6, 8, and the storage chamber 532a in the workspace (e.g., a desktop), the welding bead toys and tools used for making the assembly can be viewed and expanded at a glance. The second storage box 3 is arranged separately from the first storage box 2.
[0080] Next, the actions used to put storage box 1 into the stored state will be explained. First, the weldable bead toys and various tools used to make the assembly are stored in storage chambers 52a, 52b, 532a, 553, and 32. The workbench 6, the upper storage section 532, and the cover component 7 are respectively stored in the workbench storage section 51, the double-layer storage section 53, and the cover component storage section 34.
[0081] Next, the left and right support members 55a and 55b, which were in the open state, are rotated to the left and right sides around the rotation axis P in the circumferential direction D3 to close. When the support members 55 are in the closed state, the main body 551 of the support member 55 closes the openings of the storage chambers 52b and 52a of the internal storage member 5. In addition, the opening of the storage chamber 52a is sealed by the placement of the production table 6 in the production table storage section 51, and the production table 6 inside the production table storage section 51 is sealed by the main body 551 of the support member 55.
[0082] After the support member 55 is closed, the inner storage member 5 moves toward the outer box 4 in the storage direction D4 and is stored. At this time, the first guide portion 54 of the inner storage member 5 moves while being guided by the first guide portion 422.
[0083] The movement of the internal storage component 5 in the storage direction D4 is restricted by the contact between the end 5d1 of the side wall 5d on the first handle portion 12 side of the internal storage component 5 and the end 411a of the upper side wall 411 of the outer box 4. With the end 5d1 of the internal storage component 5 in contact with the end 411a of the outer box 4, the first handle portion 12 protrudes from the outer box 4 when the internal storage component 5 is stored inside the outer box 4. Therefore, the storage box 1 can simulate a handbag that can be carried by holding the first handle portion 12.
[0084] Furthermore, the second storage box 3 causes the second guided portion 351 to move relative to the first storage box 2 from the opening portion 423e along the second guide portion 423, and relatively from the top to the bottom in the storage direction. Thus, the second storage box 3 is stored within the first storage box 2. The movement of the second storage box 3 in the storage direction is restricted by the shoulder portion 335 abutting against the end edge of the limiting portion 423f.
[0085] When the first handle 12 is held and lifted, as Figure 2 As shown, the rotation of the support portion 552 of the storage box 1 in the opening direction is restricted by the side wall portions 42a, 42b (42). The outer box 4 is supported by the inner storage member 5 through abutment between the end portion 5d1 of the inner storage member 5 and the end portion 411a of the outer box 4. The second storage box 3 of the inner storage member 5 is supported by the limiting portion 423f to prevent it from falling.
[0086] Figure 14 This is a 3D view of the front of the Spoon 9. Also, Figure 15 This is a three-dimensional view of the back of spoon 9. Spoon 9 is one of the tools used to remove or move the weld bead toys from the various storage compartments 52a, 52b, 532a, 553, 32 to the production tables 6, 8 in the weld bead toy assembly. Spoon 9 mimics a bag key. Therefore, when spoon 9 is used with storage box 1, it can simulate a bag with a key that can lock storage box 1.
[0087] The spoon 9 has a handle 91 serving as a handhold and a head 92. The handle 91 is formed in a roughly U-shaped cross-section. The handle 91... Figure 14 The front side shown is formed in a groove shape. The head 92 is formed in a bowl shape. The head 92 has a base 921 (scooping root) connected to the handle 91 and a recess 922. The recess 922 has a projectile shape with an end side opening.
[0088] Recesses 923 and 924, extending in the left-right direction, are formed on the bottom surface of recess 922. Recesses 923 and 924 are formed with a width approximately the same as the outer shape of the weldable bead toy, which is generally bead-shaped (including those with concave and convex shapes). By placing one or more weldable bead toys in recesses 923 and 924 within recesses 922, the spoon 9 can scoop up and stably transport the weldable bead toys.
[0089] In the head 92, the left and right sidewalls 925 are formed to gradually decrease in height as they approach the top. The left and right sidewalls 925 are arranged approximately parallel to each other on the left and right sides of the recesses 923 and 924.
[0090] Because the sidewall 925 of the head 92 is formed deeper on the base 921 side than on the recessed side 922 side, the spoon 9, including the base 921, can carry more weldable bead toys. In addition, because the top side of the head 92 with recesses 923 and 924 is formed shallower, the spoon 9 can easily perform fine operations when placing weldable bead toys on the production tables 6 and 8.
[0091] like Figure 15 As shown, the spoon 9 is decorated with a key on the outer side of the back side. Unlike when used as a spoon, the spoon 9, which imitates a key, has a key handle on the head 92 side and a key tip on the handle 91 side, thus imitating a master key as a whole.
[0092] The spoon 9 has a ring-shaped mounting portion 93 on the outer side of its head 92. The mounting portion 93 can be connected to a through hole 427 (see reference) located on the shoulder near the first handle portion 12 of the storage box 1. Figure 2 They are connected together by rope-like structures such as beaded chains.
[0093] According to the above embodiments of the present invention, a storage box for weldable bead toys can be provided in the following manner.
[0094] The first embodiment of the storage box for weldable bead toys is a storage box for weldable bead toys, comprising: a first storage box having an outer box, an inner storage component that can slide relative to the outer box, and a first handle; and a second storage box having a second handle and being able to slide relative to the first storage box and be stored in the first storage box in a manner that protrudes toward the back of the first storage box.
[0095] According to this method, the first and second storage boxes can be used as a single unit or separately. Users can, for example, store multiple weld bead toys by attaching the first and second storage boxes, and the smaller, more portable second storage box can be detached from the first storage box for use at their destination. Furthermore, the second storage box is folded into place by protruding towards the back of the first storage box, thus reducing the overall thickness of the storage box when the second storage box is removed. Therefore, since the size of the storage box can be adjusted according to the user's chosen storage capacity, a storage box for weld bead toys that is both convenient for storage and transport can be created.
[0096] A second type of storage box for weldable bead toys, wherein the outer box comprises: a first sidewall portion having a first inner side surface and a second sidewall portion having a second inner side surface opposite to the first inner side surface, the first inner side surface and the first inner side surface respectively having a first guide portion and a second guide portion, the inner storage component having a first guided portion that slidably engages with the first guide portion from a first direction, and the second storage box having a second guided portion that slidably engages with the second guide portion from a second direction opposite to the first direction.
[0097] According to this method, the storage box allows the internal storage components and the second storage box to be easily guided in a straight line relative to the outer box. Furthermore, the second storage box can be easily disassembled or installed from the opposite direction to the installation direction of the internal storage components. Therefore, a highly convenient storage box can be constructed.
[0098] A third type of storage box for weldable bead toys, wherein the internal storage component includes a support member connected in a manner rotatable along the opening of the storage chamber of the internal storage component. The support member has: a plate-shaped main body parallel to the opening of the storage chamber of the internal storage component, and a support portion protruding from the main body towards the side of the internal storage component. The bottom surface of the support portion is formed to be the same plane as the back surface of the first storage box.
[0099] According to this method, the main body can function as a cover for the storage compartment of the internal storage component, preventing the scattering of weldable bead toys stored in the compartment during storage. Furthermore, the internal storage component, pulled out of the outer box, can be supported and stabilized by the support portion. Additionally, since the support portion of the support component has a bottom surface formed to be flush with the back of the first storage box, the storage box can be stably supported in both the unfolded and folded states via the back of the storage box.
[0100] A fourth type of storage box for weldable bead toys, wherein the main body closes the opening surface when the support member is in a closed state, and opens the opening surface when the support member is in an open state.
[0101] According to this method, when the folding support member stores the internal storage components inside the outer box, the support member functions as a lid for each storage compartment of the internal storage components, allowing for simultaneous storage of the support member itself and closing of the internal storage components. Conversely, it can also simultaneously unfold the support member and open the internal storage components. Therefore, it is possible to create a storage box that is convenient for users.
[0102] A fifth type of storage box for weldable bead toys, wherein the first handle is disposed in the inner storage component, and when the inner storage component is stored in the outer box, the first handle protrudes from the outer box.
[0103] According to this method, when the first handle is held as a handle, it can prevent the internal storage components and the second storage box stored in the outer box from falling off, and as a whole, it can form a storage box that mimics a bag.
[0104] A sixth embodiment of a storage box for weldable bead toys, wherein the inner storage component includes a support member connected in a manner rotatable along the opening of the storage chamber of the inner storage component. The support member has: a plate-shaped main body parallel to the opening of the storage chamber of the inner storage component, and a support portion protruding from the main body towards the side of the inner storage component. The bottom surface of the support portion is formed to be the same plane as the back of the first storage box. When the support member is in a closed state, the main body closes the opening of the storage chamber of the inner storage component, and when the support member is in an open state, the opening of the storage chamber of the inner storage component is open. A first handle is provided in the inner storage component, and when the inner storage component is stored in the outer box, the first handle protrudes from the outer box.
[0105] According to this method, the main body can function as a cover for the storage compartment of the internal storage component, preventing the scattering of weldable bead toys stored in the compartment during storage. Furthermore, the internal storage component, pulled out of the outer box, can be supported and stabilized by the support portion. Additionally, since the support portion of the support component has a bottom surface formed to be flush with the back of the first storage box, the storage box can be stably supported in both the unfolded and folded states via the back of the storage box.
[0106] Furthermore, when the folding support member stores the inner storage components inside the outer box, the support member functions as a lid for each compartment of the inner storage components, allowing for simultaneous storage of the support member itself and closing of the inner storage components. Conversely, it can also simultaneously unfold the support member and open the inner storage components. Therefore, it is possible to create a storage box that is convenient for the user. In addition, when the first handle is used as a handle, it can prevent the inner storage components and the second storage box stored relative to the outer box from falling off, and as a whole, it can form a storage box that mimics a bag.
[0107] This concludes the description of the embodiments of the present invention, but the aspects of the present invention are not limited to this embodiment. For example, in this embodiment, the example of the first handle portion 12 being provided in the internal storage component 5 has been described, but it can also be provided in the external packaging box 4 as long as it stably supports the engagement state of the internal storage component 5 relative to the external packaging box 4.
[0108] Alternatively, the cover component 7 may also have straight rib-shaped guide portions (rails) on the upper surface of the left and right walls of the peripheral wall 711 along the short width of the main body 71. These guide portions are arranged left and right and are formed to be slightly wider than the left and right width of the internal storage component 5. These guide portions are configured to guide the left and right movements of the internal storage component 5. Therefore, the second storage box 3 can be inserted and removed straight and smoothly relative to the internal storage component 5.
