Embodiments for Carrying Out the Invention

[0014] An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 7. In the following description, the vertical direction in the state where the lighting fixture is packed in the package will be described as the vertical direction of the package. Also, the state of viewing the package from above will be referred to as a plan view. Further, the irradiation direction of the lighting fixture will be referred to as the irradiation direction, and the direction orthogonal to the irradiation direction will be referred to as the side direction for description. In this embodiment, the irradiation direction of the lighting fixture will be described as being coincident with the vertical direction of the lighting fixture.

[0015] First, the package of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the package 1 of this embodiment includes a packaging member 10 and an outer packing box 20. The packaging member 10 is housed in the outer packing box 20 together with the lighting fixture 30 and holds the lighting fixture 30.

[0016] (Packaging member) As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the packaging member 10 of this embodiment includes a holding surface portion 11 and a plurality (four in this embodiment) of support legs 12 extending from an end of the holding surface portion 11 to one side. The packaging member 10 is formed using, for example, cardboard. The packaging member 10 is folded along the fold line 14 to form the support legs 12. The support legs 12 can position the holding surface portion 13 at a predetermined height position within the outer packing box 20. In this embodiment, the holding surface portion 13 is provided so as to be formed in the same shape as the bottom plate 24a of the bottom surface portion 24 of the outer packing box 20 or with dimensions slightly smaller than the bottom plate 24a. In this embodiment, the height dimensions of at least one pair of opposing support legs 12 among the four support legs 12 are provided to be substantially the same. With the state where a pair of opposing support legs 12 are configured to be substantially 90 degrees with respect to the holding surface portion 13, the packaging member 10 is arranged inside the outer packing box 20. Thereby, the holding surface portion 13 is arranged to be substantially parallel to the bottom plate 24a of the bottom surface portion 20. In this embodiment, the support legs 12 are formed to be at an angle of substantially 90 degrees with respect to the holding surface portion 13. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the support legs 12 and the holding surface portion 13 can also be formed to be an obtuse angle. Also, in this embodiment, four support legs 12 are formed. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and one or a plurality other than four can also be provided. Further, the support legs 12 may be formed separately without being integrally provided with the holding surface portion 11. Also, in this embodiment, the holding surface portion 11 is arranged to be substantially parallel to the bottom surface portion 24. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and it can also be arranged not to be substantially parallel according to the configuration of the lighting fixture 30.

[0017] The retaining surface portion 11 of this embodiment is provided with a plurality (five in this embodiment) of retaining holes 13. The retaining holes 13 allow for the insertion of the lighting fixture 30, which will be described later. The lighting fixture 30 is held in the packaging member 10 by fitting into the insertion holes 13. As shown in Figure 3, the retaining holes 13 of this embodiment are provided with a slit-shaped recess 13a on one end, forming a hat shape in plan view. A portion of the flange portion 34 of the lighting fixture 30 can be inserted into the recess 13a. The flange portion 34 of the lighting fixture 30 is held in the packaging member 10 via the recess 13a. As shown in Figure 5, the lighting fixture 30 can be fitted into the retaining hole 13 in a position where the direction in which the retaining hole 13 penetrates (in this embodiment, the direction of arrow β in Figure 1) and the irradiation direction of the lighting fixture 30 (in this embodiment, the direction of arrow α shown in Figures 1 and 4) intersect. Note that the direction of arrow β shown in Figure 1 is an example of the direction in which the retaining hole 13 penetrates. Furthermore, the direction of arrow α shown in Figures 1 and 4 is an example of the irradiation direction of the lighting fixture 30. The lighting fixture 30 is held by fitting into the holding hole 13 of the holding surface 11 in a position where the irradiation opening 33 of the lighting fixture 30 faces the side portion 23 of the outer box 20, which will be described later. By fitting into the holding hole 13, the position of the lighting fixture 30 in the vertical and lateral directions is restricted. The lighting fixture 30 is positioned so that a part of its side faces the opening 26 of the lower box portion 22, and the lighting fixture 30 is exposed from the opening 26. With the lighting fixture 30 held in this position by the packaging member 10, the worker can easily grasp the lighting fixture 30 by placing their fingers on the lamp body 32 through the irradiation opening 33 of the lighting fixture 30. This makes it easy to remove the lighting fixture 30 from the packaging body 1, and enables labor saving in the work of removing the lighting fixture 30. Furthermore, by providing multiple holding holes 13 on the holding surface portion 11 of a single packaging member 10, multiple lighting fixtures 30 can be fitted into the holding holes 13 and held in place. This eliminates the need to prepare a separate packaging member 10 for each of the multiple lighting fixtures 30, thereby achieving resource conservation and simplification of the packaging body 1, as well as reducing the amount of packaging material waste.

[0018] (Outer box) The outer box 20 is formed in a rectangular shape using, for example, cardboard. The outer box 20 of this embodiment houses a packing member 10 and a plurality (five in this embodiment) of lighting fixtures 30 held by the packing member 10. The outer box 20 is composed of a top surface 21, side surfaces 23, 23, 23, 23 and a bottom surface 24. The outer box 20 of this embodiment is composed of a bottomed rectangular tubular lower box section 22, which is made up of the side surfaces 23, 23, 23, 23 and the bottom surface 24, and a top surface section 21 that covers the top surface of the lower box section 22. A bottom plate 24a is placed above the bottom surface 24. The bottom plate 24a of this embodiment is made using cardboard and functions as a cushioning material, as well as a support material that maintains the box shape of the outer box 20. Although a bottom plate 24a is used in this embodiment, it is not necessarily an essential component. The upper part of the lower box section 22 has an opening 26 through which the packaging material 10 and the lighting fixture 30 can be accommodated. The lower box section 22 is provided with flap sections 25, 25 that extend upward from the side section 23. The flap sections 25 are folded towards the opening 26, and the top section 21 is placed over them to seal the outer box 20 using adhesive tape or the like. By providing the flap sections 25, the gap between the top section 21 and the lower box section 22 is eliminated, preventing dust and dirt from entering. In addition, a space equal to the thickness of the flap sections 25 can be created between the top section 21 and the lighting fixture 30, reducing the impact on the lighting fixture 30 when external force is applied from the top section 21 side. In this embodiment, the upper portion 21 is configured in a U-shape when viewed from the side, and is provided with two opposing flap portions 21a that extend downward from the upper surface. The two flap portions 21a are inserted into the lower box portion 22 through the opening 26 of the lower box portion 22 and are positioned to sandwich the side of the lighting fixture 30. By positioning the flap portions 21a on the side of the lighting fixture 30, displacement of the lighting fixture 30 is suppressed, and the impact on the lighting fixture 30 when subjected to external force from the side portion 23 of the outer box 22 can be reduced.

[0019] The outer box 20 of this embodiment is configured so that the top portion 21 can be removed. When selling multiple packaged lighting fixtures 30 individually, the multiple lighting fixtures 30 can be easily exposed through the opening 26 of the lower box portion 22 by removing the top portion 21. Since the top portion 21 can be removed, the display space only needs to be the same size as the outer dimensions of the outer box 20 when viewed from above, and only the minimum necessary display space needs to be secured. Therefore, compared to a configuration in which the top portion 21 is formed in a flap shape, it is possible to reduce the impact on the display space.

[0020] In this embodiment, the outer box 20 is provided with a display section 60 on at least one of its side sections 23. The display section 60 is the part on which information and diagrams of the lighting fixture 30 to be packaged in the package 1 are printed and displayed. In this embodiment, a case identification code 61 is printed and displayed on the display section 60. By displaying the case identification code 61 on the outer box 20, the outer box 20 can be sold and operated as a single unit (hereinafter described as a case unit). The case identification code 61 can be, for example, a JAN code, an ITF code, a QR code (registered trademark), etc. In this embodiment, the display section 60 is provided on the side portion 23 of the outer box 20, but it is not limited to this, and the display section 60 for advertising purposes can also be provided on the inner side of the top portion 21 or on a cardboard material used as cushioning material inserted inside the outer box 20.

[0021] (Lighting fixtures) As shown in Figure 4, the lighting fixture 30 of this embodiment is a downlight and comprises a light source unit 31, a luminaire body 32 to which the light source unit 31 is attached, a power supply unit 36, and mounting parts 37, 37. The lighting fixture 30 of this embodiment is attached to a mounting surface, such as a ceiling or wall, by sandwiching the mounting surface between the flange 34 and the mounting parts (two leaf springs in this embodiment) 37. The light source unit 31 of this embodiment is configured to include an LED module substrate on which a plurality of SMD (Surface Mount Device) type LED elements are mounted as light sources, and a diffusion panel that diffuses the light emitted from the light sources. The light source unit 31 is not limited to this, and can also use COB (Chip On Board) type LED elements, organic EL elements (OLEDs), LED lamps, etc. The luminaire body 32 comprises an illumination aperture 33, a flange portion 34, and a reflector portion 35. The light source unit 31 is attached to the luminaire body 32. When the luminaire 30 is installed on the ceiling of a room, the light emitted from the light source unit 31 is emitted into the room through the illumination aperture 33 of the luminaire 30. In addition, at least a portion of the light emitted from the light source unit 31 is reflected by the reflector portion 35 of the luminaire body 32, thereby controlling the light distribution to a predetermined level. The luminaire body 32 has a flange portion 34 formed on the outer side of the illumination opening 33. A portion of the flange portion 34 can be fitted into the recess 13a of the packaging member 10, and by fitting into the recess 13a, vertical positional displacement of the lighting fixture 30 can be restricted.

[0022] The power supply unit 36 ​​is a power supply device that supplies power to the light source unit 31 to light the light source. The power supply unit 36 ​​converts the alternating current supplied from the external commercial power source into a direct current and supplies the converted current to the light source. In this embodiment, the power supply unit 36 ​​is provided so as to be mounted on the upper side of the luminaire body 32. The power supply unit 36 ​​is inserted into the holding hole 13 of the packaging member 10 and held together with the luminaire body 32. Note that the power supply unit 36 ​​is not an essential component of the lighting fixture 30 and may be unnecessary, for example, when a lamp is used as the light source. Also, in this embodiment, it is integrally arranged on the upper side of the luminaire body 32, but it is not limited to this and may be arranged separately from the luminaire body 32.

[0023] The mounting portion 37 is a component for attaching the lighting fixture 30 to a mounting surface such as a ceiling or wall, and is provided on the side of the luminaire body 32. In this embodiment, the mounting portions 37-37 are formed from two leaf springs created by bending a plate material such as stainless steel in the middle. The tip of one end of the mounting portion 37-37 is fixed to the luminaire body 32 by screws or the like, and the other end is attached so as to extend outward toward the outer diameter of the luminaire body 32. Multiple mounting portions 37 are arranged substantially evenly on the outer surface of the luminaire body 32, and in this embodiment, they are arranged at positions that are approximately 180 degrees apart in the circumferential direction from each other. The mounting portions 37-37 elastically deform and come into contact with the embedded holes provided on the mounting surface, and the lighting fixture 30 can be attached to the mounting surface by sandwiching the mounting surface between the flange portion 34 and the mounting portions 37-37.

[0024] (Individually wrapped) As shown in Figures 5 and 6, multiple lighting fixtures 30 are individually housed in inner bags 40, resulting in individual packaging. The inner bags 40 can be made, for example, from a resin film such as polypropylene formed into a bag shape. By housing the lighting fixtures in inner bags 40, direct contact between adjacent lighting fixtures 30 is prevented, and dust, dirt, and other contaminants are prevented from adhering to the lighting fixtures 30. In this embodiment, the accessories (in this embodiment, an instruction manual 51) 50 are housed together with the lighting fixture 30 inside the inner bag 40. By including the accessories 50 of the lighting fixture 30 in the inner bag 40, it is possible to prevent purchasers from forgetting to receive the accessories 50 when the lighting fixture 30 is sold individually. In this embodiment, the accessories 50 are an instruction manual 51, but the accessories are not limited to this and may include, for example, mounting screws or metal fittings. An example of an accessory 50 in this embodiment, the instruction manual 51, is positioned as shown in Figure 7, sandwiched between the binding string 42, which restrains the mounting parts 37-37 of the lighting fixture 30 from spreading outward, and the power supply unit 36. This arrangement prevents the instruction manual 51 from moving within the inner bag 40. Furthermore, when inserting the individually packaged lighting fixture 30 into the holding hole 13 of the packaging member 10, the movement of the instruction manual 51 within the inner bag 40 prevents the lighting fixture 30 from becoming difficult to insert into the holding hole 13.

[0025] The inner bag 40 containing the lighting fixture 30 of this embodiment is sealed using sealing tape 41. Sealing the inner bag 40 prevents the lighting fixture 30 from easily falling out of the inner bag 40. It also prevents the accessories 50 of the lighting fixture 30 from falling out of the inner bag 40. The sealing tape 41 in this embodiment is colored, and different colors can be set to match the type of lighting fixture 30 (for example, dimmable type, color adjustable type, light color when lit, etc.). This allows the purchaser to easily recognize that there are multiple types of lighting fixtures 30, even if they are the same shape, for example, with different light colors when lit, by visually checking the color of the sealing tape 41. By setting the color of the sealing tape 41 to match the type of lighting fixture 30, it prevents the purchase of the wrong type of lighting fixture 30 when buying multiple fixtures 30.

[0026] Furthermore, each of the multiple lighting fixtures 30 can be assigned an individual identification code 62. In this embodiment, a label 63 bearing the individual identification code 62 is affixed to the surface of the inner bag 40. The label 63 is part of the individual markings in this invention, and in addition to the individual identification code 62, it can also display the model number, the type of lighting fixture 30, etc. The label 63 may have a colored portion (not shown) to match the type of lighting fixture 30. Purchasers can easily recognize the type of lighting fixture 30 by visually inspecting the colored portion of the label 63. The display of an individual identification code 62 makes it easy to sell the lighting fixtures 30 individually. The individual identification code 62 can be a JAN code, a QR code (registered trademark), or the like. By using the case identification code 61 displayed on the outer box 20 and the individual identification code 62 assigned to each lighting fixture 30 in combination, it is easy to handle sales in both case and individual units.

[0027] (Packaging structure) In this embodiment, the packaging structure of the packaging body 1 first involves placing the bottom plate 24a and the packaging member 10 inside the lower box section 22. The packaging member 10 is positioned at a predetermined height inside the outer box 20 by the support legs 12, with the holding surface 11 positioned accordingly. The lighting fixture 30 is inserted into and held in each of the multiple (five in this embodiment) holding holes 13 provided in the holding surface portion 11. The lighting fixture 30 is fitted into the holding holes 13 in a position where the direction in which the holding holes 13 penetrate and the direction of illumination of the lighting fixture 30 intersect. The lighting fixture 30 is positioned so that a part of its side faces the opening 26 of the lower box portion 22, and the lighting fixture 30 is exposed from the opening 26. The lighting fixture 30 is fitted into the holding holes 13 of the holding surface portion 11 in a position where the illumination opening 33 of the lighting fixture 30 faces the side portion 23 of the outer box 20. By fitting into the holding holes 13, the position of the lighting fixture 30 in the vertical and lateral directions is restricted. In this embodiment, the lighting fixture 30 has a flange portion 34, which can be fitted into the recess 13a of the retaining hole 13. By fitting the flange portion 34 into the recess 13a, vertical displacement of the lighting fixture 30 can be restricted.

[0028] In this embodiment, the lighting fixture 30 has a mounting portion (two leaf springs in this embodiment) 37 on the side of the light fixture body 20. When the lighting fixture 30 is held in the packaging member 10, the mounting portion 37 is positioned above the holding surface portion 11 of the packaging member 10, in other words, on the upper surface portion 21 of the outer box 20. Since the mounting portion 37 of the lighting fixture 30 is stored inside the outer box 20 without being restricted by the holding hole 13 of the packaging member 10, the worker can easily remove the lighting fixture 30 from the top of the outer box 20. This makes it possible to reduce the labor required to remove the lighting fixture 30. In addition, by positioning the mounting portion 37 above the holding surface portion 11, it is possible to restrict the rotation of the lighting fixture 30 inside the outer box 20.

[0029] After securing a predetermined number of lighting fixtures 30 in the packaging member 10, the flap portion 25 of the lower box portion 22 is folded and positioned so that it faces the opening 26 of the lower box portion 22. The opening 26 of the lower box portion 22 is covered with the upper portion 21 and sealed using adhesive tape or the like. At this time, the opposing flaps 21a and 21a of the upper portion 21 are positioned to sandwich the lighting fixtures 30. By positioning the flap portions 21a on the side of the lighting fixtures 30, displacement of the lighting fixtures 30 is suppressed, and the impact on the lighting fixtures 30 when subjected to external force from the side portion 23 of the outer box 22 can be reduced.

[0030] In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 6, multiple lighting fixtures 30 are individually housed in inner bags 40. The lighting fixtures 30 are held in the holding holes 13 of the packaging member 10 while individually housed in the inner bags 40 (individually packaged). Housed in inner bags 30 prevents adjacent lighting fixtures 30 from coming into direct contact with each other and also prevents dust, dirt, and other contaminants from adhering to the lighting fixtures 30.

[0031] In this embodiment, when the lighting fixture 30 is individually packaged, the accessories 50 for the lighting fixture 30 (in this embodiment, the instruction manual 51) 50 are placed inside the inner bag 40. By including the accessories 50 for the lighting fixture 30 in the inner bag 40, when the lighting fixture 30 is sold individually, it is possible to prevent purchasers from forgetting to take the accessories 50.

[0032] The inner bag 40 containing the lighting fixture 30 of this embodiment is sealed using sealing tape 41. Sealing the inner bag 40 prevents the lighting fixture 30 from easily falling out of the inner bag 40. It also prevents the accessories 50 of the lighting fixture 30 from falling out of the inner bag 40.

[0033] In the individually packaged state of the lighting fixture 30, an individual identification code 62 is displayed. In this embodiment, it is displayed on a label 63, which is one of the individual labels. The label 63 is affixed to the surface of the inner bag 40. In addition, the outer box 20 has a case identification code 61 displayed on at least one surface. In the packaging structure of the present invention, by using the case identification code 61 displayed on the outer box 20 and the individual identification code 62 displayed on each lighting fixture 30 in combination, it is possible to easily accommodate both case-unit and individual-unit sales.

[0034] The sealing tape 41 and / or individual markings 63 in this embodiment are set for each type of lighting fixture 30 (e.g., dimmable type, color adjustable type, light color when lit, etc.). For example, different colors can be set to match the type of lighting fixture 30. This allows purchasers to easily recognize that there are multiple types of lighting fixtures 30, even if there are multiple types of lighting fixtures 30 of the same shape, for example, those with different light colors when lit, by visually checking the color of the sealing tape 41 and / or individual markings 63. By setting the color of the sealing tape 41 and / or individual markings 63 to match the type of lighting fixture 30, it prevents the purchase of the wrong type of lighting fixture 30 when purchasing multiple lighting fixtures 30.

[0035] The present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, and many modifications are possible within the technical concept of the present invention by those with ordinary skill in the art. [Explanation of Symbols]
