Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to wrapping paper and packaging bags for packaging cleaned clothes. [Background technology]
[0002] Dry cleaning shops return cleaned clothes to customers in a packaging bag to prevent the cleaned clothes from getting dirty or damaged.
[0003] As shown in Fig. 4, conventional packaging bags 51 for dry-cleaned clothes C are generally made by heat-sealing the upper and lower openings (or only one opening) of a flat resin tube made of resin such as polyethylene (Patent Documents 1 to 3). Flat resin tubes come in two types: a roll-wound type and a single laminated type.
[0004] The width of the packaging bag 51 (i.e., the width of the flat resin tube) is preferably slightly larger than the folded width of the cleaned clothes C. This is because the packaging bag 51 fits the cleaned clothes and the cleaned clothes C are less likely to shift to one side inside the bag. However, the folded width of cleaned clothes C varies depending on the type of clothing. For this reason, flat resin tubes of many different widths (260 mm, 360 mm, 390 mm, 450 mm, etc.) are commercially available. Dry cleaners purchase and store these tubes, select the tube that best suits the folded width of the cleaned clothes C, and heat-seal them to create the packaging bag 51.

[0006] Therefore, dry cleaning shops have to purchase, store, and select from a wide variety of widths of flat resin tubes, which increases costs, requires a large storage space, is time-consuming to select, and requires heat-sealing equipment, which is a significant burden.
[0007] Therefore, the purpose of this invention is to make it possible to package cleaned clothes of various folding widths in packaging bags of various widths made from a single type of wrapping paper, thereby reducing the burden on dry cleaners (costs, storage space, effort, equipment, etc., as mentioned above). [Means for solving the problem]
[0008] [1] A wrapping for cleaned clothing comprising a rectangular piece of paper and an adhesive attached near one edge of the rectangular piece of paper.
[0009] [2] The rectangular paper is 60 to 100 cm wide and 30 to 100 cm high. It is the wrapping paper for dry-cleaned clothes described in [1].
[0010] [3] Rectangular paper has a basis weight of 30 g / m 2 The wrapping paper for dry-cleaned clothes according to any one of the following items [1] to [3].

[0012] [5] The wrapping paper for cleaned clothes according to any one of [1] to [4], wherein the adhesive is a double-sided adhesive tape.
[0013] [6] A wrapping paper is used that includes a rectangular piece of paper and an adhesive attached to the vicinity of one side edge of the rectangular piece of paper, The left and right sides of the rectangular paper are folded over the left and right center parts with overlapping margins and glued together with adhesive to form the wrapping paper into a flat paper tube. The flat paper tube is characterized in that the lower opening is closed by a closing structure, and the flat paper tube is used as a packaging bag. Cleaned clothing packaging.
[0014] [7] The packaging bag for cleaned clothes described in [6], wherein the closing structure fixes the bottom of the flat paper tube in a folded state.
[0015] [Effect] By simply adjusting the overlap of the rectangular paper, the width of the packaging bag can be adjusted to an optimum width slightly larger than the folded width of the cleaned clothes. Therefore, various widths of packaging bags made from the same type of wrapping paper can be used to package cleaned clothes of various folded widths. [Effects of the Invention]
[0016] According to this invention, cleaned clothes of various folding widths can be packaged in packaging bags of various widths made from one type of wrapping paper, thereby reducing the burden on dry cleaners (costs, storage space, effort, equipment, etc., as mentioned above).

If it is 65 to 100 cm, it can be easily used for cleaning clothes of various folding widths. The height of the rectangular paper is not particularly limited, but is preferably 30 to 100 cm, more preferably 40 to 70 cm. If it is 30 to 100 cm, it can easily accommodate cleaned clothes of various folding heights.
[0019] The basis weight of the rectangular paper is not particularly limited, but is preferably 60 g / m 2 Less than 40 g / m 2 Less than 30 g / m is more preferable. 2 Most preferred is 30 g / m 2 If the weight is less than this, the color and pattern of the dry-cleaned clothes being packaged will be easily visible. The lower limit of the basis weight is not particularly limited as it depends on the paper type, but if we dare to say, it is 8 g / m from the viewpoint of durability. 2 That's all. The opacity of the rectangular paper is not particularly limited, but it is preferable that the opacity (front and back) measured in accordance with JIS P8149:2023 be 15 to 35%, and more preferably 20 to 30%, so that the color and pattern of the cleaned clothes to be packaged can be seen through to a moderate degree. The type of paper for the rectangular paper is not particularly limited, but examples include tissue paper, ganpi paper, Kyoka paper, glassine paper, tracing paper, Indian paper, and hatron paper.
[0020] <2> adhesive The adhesive is not particularly limited, but examples thereof include pressure-sensitive adhesive tape and liquid adhesive. Double-sided adhesive tape is preferred because it makes it easy to attach rectangular pieces of paper together.
[0021] <3> closed structure Examples of the closure structure include, but are not limited to, a structure in which the lower part of the flat paper tube is fixed in a folded state (with adhesive tape), a structure in which the lower part of the flat paper tube is glued, sewn, or stapled, and a structure in which the lower part of the flat paper tube is crimped so that it is finely intertwined.
[0022] <4> Dry-cleaned clothing The types of cleaned clothing to be packaged are not particularly limited, but examples include shirts, open shirts, blouses, sweaters, cardigans, jackets, dresses, trousers, skirts, etc. The packaging bag of the present invention is particularly suitable for packaging sweaters and cardigans. [Example]
[0023] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which: FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a conventional optical fiber cable; FIG. 2 is a block diagram of a conventional optical fiber cable;
[0024] [Example 1] The wrapping paper 1 for cleaned clothing in Example 1 shown in Figures 1(a) and (b) is composed of a rectangular piece of paper 2 and a double-sided adhesive tape 3 as an adhesive attached near one side edge of the rectangular piece of paper 2. The dimensions of rectangular paper 2 are 78 cm wide and 54 cm high. The rectangular paper 2 has a basis weight of 13 to 16 g / m 2 It is tissue paper. The rectangular paper 2 has an opacity (front and back) of 25 to 26% as measured in accordance with JIS P8149:2023 (measurement was performed with 40 samples stacked), allowing the color and pattern of cleaned clothing to be seen through to a moderate degree. As shown in FIG. 1(b), the double-sided adhesive tape 3 has an adhesive 4 adhered to the vicinity of one side edge of a rectangular piece of paper, and a release paper 5 attached on top of the adhesive 4.
[0025] The packaging bag 6 for dry-cleaned clothes of Example 1 shown in FIG. 2(c) is The above wrapping paper 1 is used, As shown in Figures 1(a) and 1(c), the left and right sides of the rectangular paper 2 are folded over the left and right center part at the overlapping margin B, and the release paper 5 is peeled off and the adhesive 4 of the double-sided adhesive tape 3 is used to bond the two together, thereby forming the wrapping paper 1 into a flat paper tube 7 of width A. Furthermore, as shown in Figs. 1(d) to 2(c), the lower opening of the flat paper tube 7 is closed by the closing structure 8, It is referred to as packaging bag 6.
[0026] The closing structure 8 is a structure that fixes the lower part of the flat paper tube 7 in a folded state, for example, As shown in FIG. 1(d), the left and right lower corners of the flat paper tube 7 are folded into small triangles. Next, as shown in FIG. 2(a), the lower part of the flat paper tube 7 is bent upward, Next, as shown in FIG. 2(b), the lower part of the flat paper tube 7 is folded upward once more. Next, as shown in FIG. 2(c), the folded upper edge is attached to a flat paper tube 7 with adhesive tape 9 or the like.
[0027] According to this embodiment, the following effects can be obtained. (A) As shown in Figure 2(d), folded cleaned clothes C (such as sweaters) are placed into a packaging bag 6 from the top opening and packaged. The width A of the packaging bag 6 can be optimized to match the folded width of the cleaned clothes C simply by adjusting the overlap B of the rectangular paper 2. For example, Figure 2(d) shows an example in which the overlap B in Figure 1(c) is set to 10 cm and the width A of the packaging bag 6 is set to 34 cm. As shown in Figure 3(a), the overlap B is set to 24 cm and the width A of the packaging bag 6 is set to 27 cm. As shown in Figure 3(b), the overlap B can be set to 2 cm, and the width A of the packaging bag 6 can be set to 38 cm. In this way, cleaned clothes C of various folded widths can be packaged in packaging bags 6 of various widths A made from one type of packaging paper 1. Furthermore, if another type of packaging paper larger than the packaging paper 1 of Example 1 is prepared, cleaned clothes of even larger folded widths can be packaged.
[0028] (i) Therefore, the dry cleaner only needs to store one size of wrapping paper 1, reducing costs and reducing storage space. (c) Also, there is no need to go through the trouble of selecting a flat resin tube as in the past. (d) Also, there is no need for a heat sealing device as in the past.
[0029] [Example 2] The second embodiment shown in FIG. 3(c) differs from the first embodiment only in the closure structure 8 of the packaging bag 6, and is the same as the first embodiment in other respects. This closing structure 8 is a structure in which the lower part of the flat paper tube 7 is simply folded twice, and the folded upper edge is fastened to the flat paper tube 7 with adhesive tape 9 or the like.
[0030] [Example 3] Example 3 shown in FIG. 3(d) differs from Example 1 only in the closure structure 8 of the packaging bag 6, and is the same as Example 1 in other respects. This closed structure 8 is a structure in which the lower part of the flat paper tube 7 is crimped so that it is finely intertwined.
[0031] The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and can be embodied by making appropriate modifications within the scope of the invention. [Explanation of symbols]
