Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This invention relates to an urn and bone box storage set, more specifically, to a cardboard urn and bone box storage set that consists of an urn used at funerals to hold the cremated remains of the deceased and a bone box to house the urn, and that allows the used urn and bone box to be easily incinerated after the deceased's remains are interred in a grave or other location. The reason for the name "Shimai Set" is that the final chapter of the deceased's life comes to an end with the burial, and this point marks a turning point, meaning "end." Also, by making all the urns and bone boxes used for the funeral and burial out of cardboard, the temple or cemetery administrator can quickly incinerate them on the premises and complete the disposal process. [Background technology]

[0002] Conventionally, the urns and bone boxes used in this type of funeral consist of a hollow cylindrical ceramic urn with a lid and a bone box made of paulownia wood or the like that houses the hollow cylindrical ceramic bone box with a lid. Figure 7 is an exploded perspective view showing the use of a conventional urn and bone box used at a funeral. In Figure 7, reference numeral 101 denotes the hollow cylindrical ceramic urn body that contains the cremated remains of the deceased at the funeral, 102 denotes the lid of the hollow cylindrical ceramic urn, 103 denotes the bone box body that contains the hollow cylindrical ceramic urns 101 and 102 with the lid, 104 denotes the bone box lid, and 105 denotes the bone box cover (note that the reference numerals have been changed to three digits by the applicant to clarify that they are prior art).

[0003] At the time of the funeral, the remains of the deceased, which have been cremated at the crematorium, are collected and placed in the hollow cylindrical ceramic urn body 101. Once the remains are placed, the urn lid 102 is placed on top. After that, the urns 101 and 102 are placed in the bone box 103, which is then covered with the bone box lid 104. Then, the bone box cover 105 is placed on top of that, and the bone boxes 103 and 104 covered with the bone box cover 105 are carried around as is or wrapped separately in a furoshiki (not shown) or the like. At the funeral hall, the furoshiki is removed and the bones are displayed on the funeral altar or the like. Then, after a certain number of days and months (for example, 49 days as determined by Buddhism) have passed, a ritual called ossuary is performed, in which the remains of the deceased are placed in a grave prepared at a temple, cemetery, etc.

[0004] However, because the urn body 101, urn lid 102, and urn box body 103 and urn box lid 104 are made of ceramic or wood, it is difficult for temples or cemeteries to dispose of them after use. In other words, many bereaved families who have completed the funeral do not take the urn body 101, urn lid 102, urn box body 103, urn box lid 104, and urn box cover 105 home with them, but instead entrust their disposal to the temple or cemetery manager. The temple or cemetery manager can dispose of wooden urns 103 and 104 by incineration or other methods, but is forced to entrust ceramic urns 101 and 102 to a specialized disposal company. Urns and bone boxes that can be incinerated on the grounds of temples and cemeteries are known, for example, as disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Application Laid-Open Publication Nos. 3-88518 and 3149199. These urns and bone boxes are made of paper or cardboard and can be incinerated, or placed in a burial chamber in a grave, where they take advantage of their natural decomposition and return to the soil. However, although these are made of paper or cardboard, both the urn and the box are made of cardboard and are not incinerated at the same time. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0005] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 3-88518 [Patent Document 2] Publication No. 3149199 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] Therefore, the inventor of the present application came up with the idea of ​​providing an urn and urn box storage set in which both the urn and urn box used for funerals are made of cardboard and can be incinerated at the same time, so that temples and cemetery managers can easily incinerate both the urn and urn box used for funerals at the same time in facilities on their own premises. As mentioned above, the urn and urn box storage set was created with the meaning of "end," which means the final chapter of the deceased's life is marked by the interment of the ashes, and also the meaning of the incineration and disposal of the urn and urn box used for the interment of the ashes at the funeral being disposed of collectively on the premises of a temple, cemetery, etc. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] In order to solve the above problems, the device according to claim 1 of the present application is an urn and bone box storage set, which comprises a hollow hexagonal prism-shaped cardboard urn with a lid and a hollow square cardboard bone box in which the hollow hexagonal prism-shaped urn with a lid is housed, and is characterized in that the urn and bone box used after the interment at the funeral can be incinerated and disposed of all at once on the grounds of a temple, cemetery, etc. Furthermore, the device according to claim 2 of the present application is characterized in that in the urn and bone box storage set described in claim 1, the cardboard urn has an urn lid that fits externally to the urn body, and the cardboard bone box has an urn box lid that fits internally to the bone box body. [Effects of the Invention]

[0008] (1) These urns (body and lid) and bone boxes (body and lid) are all made of cardboard, etc., so they can be easily incinerated in simple incineration facilities at temples, cemeteries, etc., making them urns and bone boxes that meet the current demands of the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals). (2) In addition, since the surface of the urn can be printed with an appropriate pattern, there is no need for the cylindrical cloth cover (bag) that is used to cover the entire urn or urn. Therefore, the urn can be displayed on the altar as is during funeral and burial ceremonies, and can be carried around without feeling out of place. Furthermore, by printing the same pattern on the surface of the urn and urn, the two can be decorated in a unified style. In particular, the urn can create a warm atmosphere, unlike ceramic urns.
