Modes for Carrying Out the Invention

[0009] In this specification, the terms "outer bag" and "storage bag" are intended to mean a bag for the purpose of storing an article, and these terms are used interchangeably. The article stored in the "outer bag" and "storage bag", or the article to be stored may be collectively referred to as "stored item". Examples of the stored item include, but are not limited to, a gift bag, a condolence envelope, a money bag for containing money and giving as a gift, a message card, etc.

[0010] The outer bag for the gift bag of the present invention is made of a transparent flexible material. Specifically, films such as CPP and OPP can be mentioned. CPP is an abbreviation for Cast Polypropylene and refers to non-stretched polypropylene. OPP is an abbreviation for Oriented Polypropylene and refers to biaxially stretched polypropylene. CPP has a relatively high transparency and is strong against tearing at the cut and joint parts. The OPP film has a tension and a particularly high transparency. In the present invention, the OPP film is particularly preferred. By having an appropriate tension, it can protect the outer bag for the gift bag of the present invention from folding and bending while being stored in a bag or the like, and can give a high-class feeling to its appearance.

[0011] Since the outer bag for the gift bag of the present invention is transparent, the appearance of the contents can be confirmed without opening the bag. Therefore, when there are multiple gift bags to be handed over or when it is desired to confirm whether there is no writing error, identification and confirmation are easy.

[0012] If desired, antibacterial properties may be imparted by adding antibacterial substances such as antibacterial agents and metal ions to the film material. If desired, antibacterial properties may be imparted by applying an antibacterial agent to the film after molding. In the present invention, the term "antibacterial property" refers to the growth rate of bacteria on the surface being 1 / 100 or less compared to the case where no antibacterial treatment is performed. For the detailed inspection method, refer to JIS Z2801:2010 "Antibacterial processed products - Antibacterial test method and antibacterial effect".

[0013] The outer bag for the gift-giving bag of this invention has dimensions suitable for containing the target contents. Although the dimensions considered preferable for envelopes for congratulatory gifts, condolence envelopes, etc. vary according to the amount of money given as a gift, for example, those with dimensions such as 6.8 cm × 11.8 cm, 8.8 cm × 17.8 cm, 9.5 cm × 18 cm, 10 cm × 18.5 cm are commercially available. Considering the thickness of the contents and the ease of accommodation, those that are about several millimeters to 2 cm larger than the contents are preferable. When the contents are something other than a money envelope, such as a message card, the dimensions of the contents are not limited by the dimensions of the banknote, and the dimensions of the storage bag of this invention are also changed accordingly.

[0014] The outer bag for the gift-giving bag of this invention has an outer shape that is substantially rectangular, trapezoidal, or a deformed shape thereof. More specifically, these outer shapes include rectangles, squares, isosceles trapezoids, and shapes in which some or all of the corners thereof are rounded. By being a shape with rounded corners, it is possible to prevent the outer bag from damaging the delicate fabric or skin when it comes into contact with them.

[0015] The outer bag for the gift-giving bag of this invention has a first planar member and a second planar member that face each other. The planar member means a member whose thickness is sufficiently small compared to the area. For example, if the thickness is 1 mm or less with respect to the area of a banknote, it can be considered a planar member.

[0016] Three sides of the second planar member are joined to the corresponding positions of the first planar member to form a sealed side. Further, the other one side of the second planar member forms an open side. Here, the "sealed side" in this invention refers to a part of the outer edge of an article, which is a joined portion so that the target contents do not come out from the sealed side. The "open side" in this invention refers to a part of the outer edge of an article, which is a portion where the target contents can be taken in and out.

[0017] For example, when the shapes of the first planar member and the second planar member are rectangles with equal short side lengths, the entire short sides of each can overlap, and the first planar member can be joined to the second planar member such that a part of the long side of the first planar member overlaps with the entire long side of the second planar member. In this case, by overlapping two corners of the first planar member and the second planar member and joining the three sides sandwiching these corners, the desired state can be achieved. Further, when the first planar member and the second planar member are made from a single flexible planar material, by folding the material back, the first planar member and the second planar member with one side joined are formed, and by joining the two sides on both sides of the fold line, the desired state can also be achieved.

[0018] The outer bag for a gift bag of the present invention has a lid portion that the first planar member can be folded back along the open side. Here, the lid portion is a planar member continuous with the first planar member, which does not overlap with the second planar member before folding back, and refers to the portion that overlaps with the second planar member after folding back. The first planar member and the lid portion may be joined after being formed separately. Also, the first planar member and the lid portion may be integrally molded. That is, for a single flexible planar material, with a straight line along the open side as a boundary, the side that overlaps with the second planar member may be the first planar member, and the other side may be the lid portion. Therefore, the lid portion, the first planar member, and the second planar member may be integrally molded.

[0019] The outer bag for a gift bag of the present invention has an adhesive portion on the second planar member. Here, adhesion in the present invention means that after an object comes into contact, particularly when a pressure that can be applied manually to a certain extent is applied, the contacted object maintains the contact state, and when a pressure that can be applied manually to a certain extent is applied in the direction of separating the adhesive portion and the object, the contact state is released, and the holding and releasing of the contact can be repeated.

[0020] Such an adhesive portion can be achieved by applying a peelable adhesive to the second planar member. A peelable adhesive refers to an adhesive that can be easily peeled off manually without any treatment such as heat or chemicals during peeling. In order for the adhesive portion to be reusable, it is required that the adhesive remains on the second planar member after peeling and does not remain on the lid portion. That is, the adhesive force between the adhesive and the second planar member is stronger than the adhesive force between the adhesive and the lid portion, and it is required to have a cohesive force such that the adhesive does not break during peeling.

[0021] In the outer bag for a gift bag of the present invention, the adhesive portion is disposed at a position covered by the lid portion when the lid portion is folded back onto the second planar member. That is, it is disposed on the surface of the second planar member on the side opposite to the first planar member. At the same time, the adhesive portion is disposed in a range where the distance from the open side is shorter than the distance between the tip of the lid portion and the open side.

[0022] In the outer bag for a gift bag of the present invention, the adhesive portion is disposed not on the lid portion but on the second planar member. With such an arrangement, when accommodating the contents, it is possible to avoid the contents coming into contact with the adhesive portion and being damaged by the adhesive portion.

[0023] In the present invention, "the adhesive portion is covered by the lid portion" means that when the lid portion is folded back, the entire adhesive portion comes into contact with the lid portion and the adhesive portion is not exposed outside the lid portion. With such an arrangement, when the outer bag for a gift bag of the present invention is placed in a bag or the like, it is possible to avoid sticking to surrounding articles and damaging the surrounding articles.

[0024] The outer bag for a gift bag of the present invention may be provided with a release liner on the adhesive portion. The release liner may be subjected to an antistatic treatment. By providing the release liner and subjecting the release liner to an antistatic treatment, the user can efficiently accommodate the contents.

[0025] Note that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications can be made based on the gist of the present invention, and they are not excluded from the scope of the present invention.
