Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] In Patent Document 1, although the packaging material is composed of a single sheet, the following problems occur in this configuration. That is, when a sheet with low rigidity is used as the packaging material, the packaging material is likely to bend due to the weight of the flowers in the bouquet or the like. On the other hand, when a sheet with high rigidity is used, the packaging material tends to become hard, and the feel when grasped becomes poor.

[0005] Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a bouquet packaging body that can achieve both resistance to bending and good feel.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0006] A typical configuration of the bouquet packaging body according to the present invention for solving the above problems is a bouquet packaging body provided with a packaging material that is formed in a cylindrical shape and packages a bouquet by accommodating the bouquet inside the cylinder, wherein the packaging material is composed of a laminate including a base material, a sponge disposed outside the base material, and a fibrous fabric disposed outside the sponge.

[0007] According to the present invention, it is possible to achieve both resistance to bending and a pleasant feel in the packaging of a flower bouquet. [Brief explanation of the drawing]

[0009] The following description of a bouquet packaging according to one embodiment of the present invention will be provided with reference to the drawings. Note that the dimensions, materials, shapes, and relative arrangements of the components described below are not intended to limit the scope of this invention to those components unless otherwise specifically stated.

[0010] Figure 1 is a perspective view of a bouquet 50 comprising a flower bouquet 30 and a packaging body 10. Figure 2 is a perspective view of the packaging body 10. Figure 3 is a front view of the packaging body 10, in which a portion of the flower stems 30a of the flower bouquet 30 is shown by a dashed line, and the ribbon 22 of the packaging body 10 is omitted. Figure 4A is a cross-sectional view of the packaging body 10 cut along the AA section shown in Figure 3. Figure 4B is an enlarged view of region X shown in Figure 4A.

[0011] As shown in Figures 1-4, the bouquet 50 comprises a bunch of flowers 30 and a packaging body 10 for wrapping the bunch 30. In this embodiment, the bunch 30 is made up of artificial flowers such as synthetic resin flowers or soap flowers. However, the material of the bunch 30 is not limited to this, and for example, fresh flowers, preserved flowers, or dried flowers may also be used.

[0012] The packaging body 10 comprises a cylindrical packaging sheet 11 (packaging material), a bottom lid 23 that closes the lower end 11v2 of the cylindrical packaging sheet 11, and a reinforcing material 24 that is positioned inside the cylindrical packaging sheet 11 to reinforce the packaging sheet 11. The packaging sheet 11 packages the bouquet 30 by placing the bouquet 30 inside its cylinder. The packaging sheet 11 is configured to be self-supporting when placed on a horizontal surface H.

[0013] In this embodiment, unless otherwise specified, the up-down direction and vertical direction refer to the upward and downward directions when the bouquet 50 is placed on a horizontal plane H. The left-right direction refers to the left and right directions when the bouquet 50 is placed on a horizontal plane H, and the front-back direction refers to the front and rear directions when the bouquet 50 is placed on a horizontal plane H.

[0014] The packaging sheet 11 has an upper packaging section 11a located at the top, which is roughly frustoconical in shape and whose diameter decreases towards the bottom, and a lower packaging section 11b located below the upper packaging section 11a, which is roughly frustoconical in shape and whose diameter increases towards the top. The packaging sheet 11 also has a constricted section 11c located between the upper end 11v1 and the lower end 11v2 in the vertical direction, with an outer diameter D3 that is smaller than the outer diameter D1 of the upper end 11v1 and the outer diameter D2 of the lower end 11v2.

[0015] The upper end 11v1 of the packaging sheet 11 corresponds to the upper end of the upper packaging section 11a, and the lower end 11v2 of the packaging sheet 11 corresponds to the lower end of the lower packaging section 11b. Furthermore, the constricted portion 11c of the packaging sheet 11 corresponds to the lower end of the upper packaging section 11a and the upper end of the lower packaging section 11b.

[0016] Further, the outer diameter D1 of the upper end portion 11v1 of the packaging sheet 11 is configured to be larger than the outer diameter D2 of the lower end portion 11v2. In other words, the maximum diameter of the upper packaging portion 11a is configured to be larger than the maximum diameter of the lower packaging portion 11b. Thereby, the upper packaging portion 11a of the packaging sheet 11 is likely to stand out, and the appearance of the bouquet 30 protruding upward from the upper packaging portion 11a is improved.

[0017] Further, the constriction portion 11c is the portion of the packaging sheet 11 where the outer diameter is the smallest. The constriction portion 11c is disposed below the center of the packaging sheet 11 in the vertical direction. A binding band 21 is wound around the outer peripheral portion of the constriction portion 11c to suppress the constriction portion 11c from spreading. Further, a ribbon 22 is wound around the outer peripheral portion of the binding band 21.

[0018] Further, the packaging sheet 11 is composed of a laminate in which a cardboard 12, a corrugated sheet 13 (base material), a sponge 14, and a fiber fabric 15 are laminated. In the cylindrical packaging sheet 11, these materials are stacked in order from the inside as cardboard 12, corrugated sheet 13, sponge 14, and fiber fabric 15. That is, in the cylindrical packaging sheet 11, the cardboard 12 is disposed inside the corrugated sheet 13, the sponge 14 is disposed outside the corrugated sheet 13, and the fiber fabric 15 is disposed outside the sponge 14.

[0019] The corrugated sheet 13 is a paper-made rectangular parallelepiped member composed of a core 13a and a liner 13b attached to the outer surface of the core 13a. The core 13a is a wavy member in which convex portions 13a1 protruding toward the liner 13b side and concave portions 13a2 recessed from the convex portions 13a1 toward the cardboard 12 side are alternately and continuously formed. The top of each convex portion 13a1 of the core 13a is adhesively fixed to the liner 13b.

[0020] Here, in the present embodiment, not limited to the material of the cardboard sheet 13, the direction in which the convex portions 13a1 and the concave portions 13a2 extend is the width direction of the cardboard sheet 13, and the direction in which the convex portions 13a1 and the concave portions 13a2 are arranged side by side is the flow direction of the cardboard sheet 13. The width direction of the cardboard sheet 13 can also be said to be the direction orthogonal to the direction in which the convex portions 13a1 and the concave portions 13a2 of the core 13a are arranged side by side and the thickness direction of the cardboard sheet 13. Further, the thickness direction of the cardboard sheet 13 can also be said to be the direction in which the core 13a and the liner 13b are arranged side by side.

[0021] In the cylindrical packaging sheet 11, the cardboard sheet 13 is arranged such that the width direction is along the vertical direction and the flow direction is along the circumferential direction of the packaging sheet 11. That is, the cardboard sheet 13 is arranged such that the convex portions 13a1 and the concave portions 13a2 are alternately and continuously arranged along the circumferential direction of the packaging sheet 11, and the convex portions 13a1 and the concave portions 13a2 extend along the vertical direction respectively.

[0022] The cardboard sheet 13 has the property of being difficult to bend when a load in the width direction is input and being easy to bend when a load in the flow direction is input. Therefore, the packaging sheet 11 including the cardboard sheet 13 is difficult to bend with respect to a load in the vertical direction. In the packaging sheet 11, if the cardboard sheet 13 is arranged such that its width direction intersects the horizontal direction, a certain degree of strength can be provided with respect to a load in the vertical direction. However, in order to make the strength higher, it is preferable to arrange the cardboard sheet 13 such that the width direction is along the vertical direction as in the present embodiment.

[0023] The cardboard 12 (inner layer) is a thick, rectangular piece of paper, primarily placed inside the corrugated cardboard sheet 13 to conceal the core 13a of the corrugated cardboard sheet 13. As the innermost layer of the packaging sheet 11, the cardboard 12 is visible from the outside around the bouquet 30. Therefore, in this embodiment, a less conspicuous black cardboard 12 is used to prevent the cardboard 12 from being noticeable and detracting from the aesthetic appeal of the bouquet 30. Furthermore, cardboard 12 is used instead of thin paper to increase the strength of the packaging sheet 11. The vertical width of the cardboard 12 is smaller than the vertical widths of the corrugated cardboard sheet 13, sponge 14, and fiber fabric 15.

[0024] The textile fabric 15 refers to a fabric made from fibers, and includes woven fabrics, nonwoven fabrics, and sewn fabrics. Since the textile fabric 15 is the outermost layer of the packaging sheet 11, it is visible from the outside and contributes to the aesthetic appeal of the bouquet 50 together with the flower bouquet 30, as well as to the tactile feel of the packaging sheet 11. For this reason, in this embodiment, a fabric that is elegant and has a pleasant feel, such as tweed fabric or kimono fabric, is used as the textile fabric 15.

[0025] The sponge 14 is a porous, soft material, and in this embodiment, a rectangular, sheet-like sponge made of synthetic resin is used. The sponge 14 is placed inside the fiber fabric 15, which provides softness when the packaging sheet 11 is grasped, resulting in a pleasant feel to the touch.

[0026] The bottom lid 23 of the packaging body 10 is a member that closes the lower end portion 11v2 of the packaging sheet 11, as described above, and in this embodiment it is made of cardboard. The bottom lid 23 has a circular bottom portion 23a that rests on a horizontal plane H and a side wall portion 23b that extends upward from the edge of the bottom portion 23a. The outer diameter of the bottom lid 23 is set to be approximately the same as the inner diameter of the lower end portion 11v2 of the packaging sheet 11. The bottom lid 23 is fitted onto the packaging sheet 11 from below and fixed to the packaging sheet 11 by the side wall portion 23b being attached to the inner circumference of the packaging sheet 11 with double-sided tape (not shown). In this way, the packaging body 10 has a bottom lid 23, which prevents the lower packaging portion 11b of the packaging sheet 11 from collapsing when a horizontal load is applied to the lower packaging portion 11b from the outside. Furthermore, when the bottom lid 23 is fitted into the packaging sheet 11, the upper end of the side wall portion 23b of the bottom lid 23 contacts the lower end of the cardboard 12, thereby determining the vertical position of the bottom lid 23. This configuration prevents the bottom lid 23 from going inside the packaging sheet 11, improving the ease of assembly of the package 10.

[0027] The reinforcing member 24 of the packaging body 10 is an annular member that fits onto the inner circumference of the upper packaging portion 11a of the packaging sheet 11 and reinforces the packaging sheet 11, and in this embodiment it is made of cardboard. The reinforcing member 24 has a circular hole 24a that penetrates vertically in the center, and the flower stems 30a of the bouquet 30 are inserted through this hole 24a. The outer diameter of the reinforcing member 24 is approximately the same as the inner diameter of the upper packaging portion 11a of the packaging sheet 11 at a predetermined position, and is set to be larger than the inner diameter D4 of the constricted portion 11c. By providing the reinforcing member 24 inside the packaging sheet 11 in this way, the crushing of the upper packaging portion 11a when a horizontal load is applied to the upper packaging portion 11a of the packaging sheet 11 is suppressed.

[0028] Furthermore, the packaging body 10 is equipped with an annular retaining plate 26 attached to the flower stem 30a of the bouquet 30 to prevent the bouquet 30 from coming off the packaging sheet 11. The retaining plate 26 (regulating member) is positioned above the constricted portion 11c in the vertical direction.

[0029] The retaining plate 26 has a vertical through-hole 26a in its center into which the flower stalk 30a of the bouquet 30 is inserted. Before the flower stalk 30a is inserted, the through-hole 26a is a notch 26c, and as the flower stalk 30a is inserted, the notch 26c widens to become the through-hole 26a (see Figure 7A). The area around the notch 26c of the retaining plate 26 becomes a holding part 26b that grips the flower stalk 30a after it has been inserted, due to the restoring force of elastic deformation.

[0030] The diameter D5 of the retaining plate 26 is set to be larger than the inner diameter D4 of the constricted portion 11c. Therefore, when the bouquet 30 tries to slip out from below the packaging sheet 11, the retaining plate 26 catches on the constricted portion 11c, restricting the movement of the bouquet 30 and thus preventing it from slipping out. Furthermore, since the retaining plate 26 restricts the vertical movement of the bouquet 30, it can also be said that the retaining plate 26 is a positioning member that determines the vertical position of the bouquet 30 relative to the packaging sheet 11. Note that the diameter D5 of the retaining plate 26 is set to be smaller than the diameter of the hole 24a of the reinforcing material 24.

[0031] Although the retaining plate 26 can prevent the bouquet 30 from falling out of the packaging sheet 11 as described above, it is time-consuming to insert the flower stalk 30a into the retaining plate 26 and attach the retaining plate 26 to the flower stalk 30a. Therefore, instead of the retaining plate 26, the flower stalk 30a may be wrapped in bubble wrap or the like.

[0032] Next, the manufacturing method of the bouquet 50 will be described. Figures 5, 6, and 7 are schematic diagrams showing the manufacturing method of the bouquet 50 in order. As shown in Figure 5A, the worker performing the assembly first attaches the sponge 14 to the outside of the corrugated cardboard sheet 13 with double-sided tape (not shown). Note that the circumferential width L2 of the sponge 14 when it is molded into a cylinder and the width L1 of the corrugated cardboard sheet 13 in the same direction are set to be the same width.

[0033] Next, the worker attaches the fibrous fabric 15 to the outside of the sponge 14 using double-sided tape (not shown), as shown in Figure 5B. At this time, the worker folds the edges of the fibrous fabric 15 so that they cover the edges 13x and 14x of the corrugated cardboard sheet 13 and sponge 14 from the outside. Specifically, the worker first folds the left edge 15c and the right edge 15d of the fibrous fabric 15 inward, and then folds the upper edge 15a and the lower edge 15b inward. This prevents the edges 13x and 14x of the corrugated cardboard sheet 13 and sponge 14 from being exposed to the outside, resulting in a neat appearance.

[0034] Furthermore, the circumferential width L3 of the fiber fabric 15 when formed into a cylinder is set to be larger than the widths L1 and L2 of the corrugated cardboard sheet 13 and sponge 14 in the same direction. This is because, in the packaging sheet 11, the fiber fabric 15 is positioned on the outside of the sponge 14 and corrugated cardboard sheet 13, and this prevents wrinkles from forming on the corrugated cardboard sheet 13 and sponge 14 due to the difference in circumferential length between the inside and outside, and also prevents excessive tension from being applied to the fiber fabric 15, which could cause it to break. The reason why the widths L1 and L2 of the corrugated cardboard sheet 13 and sponge 14 are the same is that the sponge 14 is easily stretchable and can absorb the above difference in circumferential length, so making them the same width makes it easier to cut the corrugated cardboard sheet 13 and sponge 14, thereby increasing the productivity of the packaging 10.

[0035] Next, the worker attaches the cardboard 12 to the inside of the corrugated cardboard sheet 13 using double-sided tape (not shown), as shown in Figure 5C. At this time, the worker attaches the cardboard 12 so as to cover the edges 15a1, 15b1, 15c1, and 15d1 of the upper edge 15a, lower edge 15b, left edge 15c, and right edge 15d of the folded textile fabric 15. This hides the edges 15a1, 15b1, 15c1, and 15d1 of the textile fabric 15, resulting in a neat appearance. In addition, since the edges 15a1, 15b1, 15c1, and 15d1 of the textile fabric 15 are less likely to be touched by human fingers, fraying can be suppressed if a fabric that frays easily, such as tweed, is used as the textile fabric 15.

[0036] Furthermore, the circumferential width L4 of the cardboard 12 when it is formed into a cylinder is set to be smaller than the widths L1 to L3 of the corrugated cardboard sheet 13, sponge 14, and fiber fabric 15 in the same direction. This prevents wrinkles from forming in the cardboard 12 due to the difference in circumference between the inside and outside, and prevents excessive tension from being applied to the corrugated cardboard sheet 13, sponge 14, and fiber fabric 15, which could cause them to break. In addition, as mentioned above, the vertical width of the cardboard 12 is smaller than the vertical width of the corrugated cardboard sheet 13, sponge 14, and fiber fabric 15, so that the fiber fabric 15 protrudes above the cardboard 12. As a result, the cardboard 12 is less visible from above when the bouquet 50 is in its assembled state, improving the appearance of the bouquet 50. In this way, each material is laminated to form the packaging sheet 11 as a laminated body.

[0037] Next, as shown in Figure 6A, the worker rolls the packaging sheet 11 into a cylindrical shape and secures the overlapping circumferential parts of the cylindrical packaging sheet 11 with double-sided tape 80. Then, as shown in Figure 6B, the worker applies pressure from the outside to the cylindrical packaging sheet 11 so that the upper packaging section 11a, lower packaging section 11b, and constricted section 11c are formed. After that, the worker restrains the constricted section 11c with a cable tie 21 to prevent it from spreading and wraps a ribbon 22 over the cable tie 21. The worker also fits a reinforcing material 24 to the inner circumference of the upper packaging section 11a of the packaging sheet 11.

[0038] Next, as shown in Figure 7A, the worker bundles the flower stalks 30a of the bouquet 30 with a rubber band 31 and inserts the flower stalks 30a into the notches 26c of the retaining plate 26. The worker also wraps bubble wrap 27 around the flower stalks 30a at the position between the retaining plate 26 and the rubber band 31 and secures it with tape or the like (not shown). At this time, the worker wraps the bubble wrap 27 around the flower stalks 30a so that the outer diameter of the bubble wrap 27 is slightly larger than the inner diameter D4 of the constricted portion 11c.

[0039] Subsequently, the worker inserts the bouquet 30 into the tube of the packaging sheet 11 from above until the bubble wrap 27 is positioned below the constricted section 11c and the retaining plate 26 is positioned above the constricted section 11c. At this time, the bubble wrap 27 passes through the constricted section 11c in a compressed state due to the worker's force. After passing through the constricted section 11c, the bubble wrap 27 returns to its original size and functions as a retainer to prevent the flower stems 30a from coming out upwards. When replacing the bouquet 30, the worker applies force to pull the flower stems 30a upwards, causing the bubble wrap 27 to compress again and pass through the constricted section 11c.

[0040] Finally, the worker fits the bottom lid 23 onto the bottom of the packaging sheet 11, as shown in Figure 7B. In this way, the bouquet 50 is manufactured.

[0041] In this embodiment, the cylindrical packaging sheet 11 is composed of a laminate containing a corrugated cardboard sheet 13 as a base material, a sponge 14 placed on the outside of the corrugated cardboard sheet 13, and a fibrous fabric 15 placed on the outside of the sponge 14. This provides the following effects.

[0042] In other words, if the packaging sheet 11 is made of a single layer of fiber fabric 15, considering only decorative properties and tactile feel, the rigidity of the fiber fabric 15 is generally not high, so the packaging sheet 11 will easily bend due to the weight of the flowers in the bouquet 30. On the other hand, if the packaging sheet 11 is made of a single layer of a highly rigid resin material, considering only resistance to bending, the packaging sheet 11 will tend to become hard, resulting in a poor tactile feel when held.

[0043] In contrast, in this embodiment, the packaging sheet 11, which is made of laminates, includes a corrugated cardboard sheet 13 as a base material. By adjusting the material and thickness of the base material, it is possible to secure the rigidity necessary to prevent the packaging sheet 11 from bending due to the weight of the bouquet 30. Furthermore, since the fiber fabric 15 is placed on the outside of the corrugated cardboard sheet 13 in the packaging sheet 11, the decorative properties and tactile feel of the packaging sheet 11 are improved. Moreover, since the sponge 14 is placed between the corrugated cardboard sheet 13 and the fiber fabric 15 in the packaging sheet 11, the packaging sheet 11 is given softness, further improving its tactile feel. Therefore, the packaging body 10 for the bouquet 30 of this embodiment can achieve both resistance to bending and a pleasant tactile feel.

[0044] In particular, in this embodiment, the base material of the packaging sheet 11 is made of corrugated cardboard sheets 13 arranged so that the width direction intersects the horizontal direction. Therefore, while ensuring the lightness and ease of forming a cylindrical shape of the packaging sheet 11, it becomes less likely to bend when a vertical load, such as the weight of the flowers in the bouquet 30, is applied to the packaging sheet 11. If this point is not considered, other materials such as cardboard may be used instead of corrugated cardboard sheets 13 as the base material of the packaging sheet 11. However, from the viewpoint of ease of forming a cylindrical shape of the packaging sheet 11, it is preferable to use a paper base material.

[0045] Furthermore, the packaging sheet 11 in this embodiment has a constricted portion 11c. Therefore, if the strength of the packaging sheet 11 against vertical loads is weak, the packaging sheet 11 will be prone to bending at the constricted portion 11c. In contrast, in this embodiment, as described above, the strength against vertical loads is high, so even though the packaging sheet 11 is provided with a constricted portion 11c, bending at the constricted portion 11c is suppressed.

[0046] Furthermore, if the thickness of the fiber fabric 15 is thin, and the sponge 14 is not interposed between the corrugated cardboard sheet 13 and the fiber fabric 15, the unevenness of the core 13a of the corrugated cardboard sheet 13 will be more easily felt when the packaging sheet 11 is grasped. In contrast, in this embodiment, since the sponge 14 is interposed, the unevenness of the core 13a is less likely to be felt, and the deterioration of the tactile feel of the packaging sheet 11 due to the unevenness is suppressed. The fact that the liner 13b is positioned on the outside of the core 13a also contributes to suppressing the deterioration of the tactile feel due to the unevenness of the core 13a.

[0047] Furthermore, if you wish to further suppress the deterioration of the tactile feel due to the unevenness of the core 13a, you may add a layer of material other than corrugated cardboard, such as felt, between the corrugated cardboard sheet 13 and the fiber fabric 15. In that case, it is preferable to interpose this layer of felt or the like between the corrugated cardboard sheet 13 and the sponge 14 in order to utilize the softness of the sponge 14 as part of the tactile feel of the packaging sheet 11.

[0048] Furthermore, in this embodiment, single-sided corrugated cardboard is used as the corrugated cardboard sheet 13, in which a liner 13b is provided on only one side of the core 13a. This has the following effect. That is, when the corrugated cardboard sheet 13 is formed into a cylindrical shape, a difference in circumference occurs between the inside and outside. Therefore, when using double-sided corrugated cardboard in which liners are provided on both sides of the core 13a, wrinkles occur in the inner liner, and excessive tension is applied to the outer liner, resulting in unevenness on the surface of the corrugated cardboard sheet 13.

[0049] In contrast, by using single-sided corrugated cardboard as the corrugated cardboard sheet 13, the occurrence of the above-mentioned irregularities caused by the difference in circumference between the inside and outside can be suppressed, and the deterioration of the tactile feel of the packaging sheet 11 due to such irregularities can be suppressed. If this point is not taken into consideration, other types of corrugated cardboard sheets 13, such as double-sided corrugated cardboard, may be used when using corrugated cardboard sheets 13 as the base material for the packaging sheet 11. Furthermore, although a paper corrugated cardboard sheet 13 was used in this embodiment, the present invention is not limited to this, and corrugated cardboard sheets 13 made of other materials such as plastic may be used.

[0050] Although the present invention has been described using a cylindrical packaging sheet 11 as an example in this embodiment, the present invention is not limited thereto. That is, the packaging sheet 11 can be any shape, and the same effects can be obtained even if it is, for example, a square tube or a pentagonal tube. [Explanation of Symbols]
