Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a soap tray-cum-packing box that can be used as a soap tray for placing soap or as a packing box for packing soap.

Background Art

[0002] Soap may be stored one by one in a packing box and sold. Such a packing box is only used when selling soap, and after being taken out for using the soap, it is often discarded. However, in recent years, in order to avoid waste of resources, a packing box made of a water-resistant material and capable of being used as a soap tray when using soap has been proposed.

[0003] For example, in Patent Document 1, when a contact surface is located between a support recess provided in a side flap and soap in a state where both side flaps are folded, it functions as a box for storing soap, and when a cut portion of the side flap engages with the contact surface and the contact surface is not located between the support recess and the soap, and the box body is cut along a cutting line, it functions as a tray on which soap is placed. A soap storage box is disclosed.

[0017] The soap tray and packaging box of this invention allows the soap to be removed from its packaging by opening the flap on the upper rear wall, then inserting the flap between the rear wall and the support part to create a large opening in the upper part of the internal space, and placing the soap on the placement part to use it as a soap tray. The placement part is supported from below by the support part, so the soap can be placed stably on it.

[0018] The front wall has a lower upper edge that is folded to be lower than the upper edges of the other side walls. This allows you to easily remove the soap placed on the shelf by inserting your fingers into the interior space through the lowered part of the front wall, without having to cut the box to reduce its height, and it also eliminates the generation of waste that comes from cutting the box.

[0019] Since drainage holes are formed in the placement section, the fold between the placement section and the hanging section, and the overlapping section of the lower flap, water is less likely to accumulate in the internal space even when used soap is placed on the placement section. Moreover, because the placement section is sloped to become higher towards the rear, water on the placement section can be quickly drained towards the drainage holes formed in the fold between the front placement section and the hanging section.

[0020] By providing a hook on the side wall that can be raised outwards, cotton pads or puffs used for washing your face can be hung on the hook. [Brief explanation of the drawing]

[0022] To clarify the technical details of this invention, embodiments of this invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. It goes without saying that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described below.

[0023] In the unfolded diagram of Figure 10, solid lines indicate the outline or cutting lines, and dashed lines indicate folds.

[0024] The soap tray and packaging box is formed by folding a sheet A (Figure 10) made of a water-resistant material (for example, a synthetic resin that is transparent, translucent, or opaque and partially or completely decorated).

[0025] As shown in Figures 1 to 9, when used as a soap packaging box 1a for packaging soap, it has a roughly rectangular parallelepiped shape and comprises side walls 2 which form the sides of the rectangular parallelepiped, an upper flap 3 which forms the top surface of the rectangular parallelepiped, a lower flap 4 which forms the bottom surface of the rectangular parallelepiped, and a stage 5.

[0026] As shown in Figures 1 to 10, the side wall 2 has a front wall 20, a rear wall 21 positioned opposite the front wall 20, and a left wall 22 and a right wall 23 that connect the front wall 20 and the rear wall 21 and face each other. The front wall 20, the rear wall 21, the left wall 22, and the right wall 23 enclose an internal space 6 for storing soap.

[0027] Front wall legs 200 are integrally provided protruding from both the left and right ends of the lower end of the front wall 20, and rear wall legs 210 are integrally provided protruding from near both the left and right ends of the lower end of the rear wall 21.

[0028] The front wall 20 has a lower upper edge portion 201 that is bent so as to be lower than the upper edges of the rear wall 21, left wall 22, and right wall 23, and a hanging portion 202 that is formed inward and continuous with the lower upper edge portion 201.

[0029] The lower upper edge portion 201 is formed by a fold L0. Cuts are formed from both ends of the fold L0, sloping outward and reaching the same height as the other walls and upper edge of the front wall 20.

[0030] In this embodiment, the lower upper edge portion 201 is formed in the center of the width direction of the front wall 20, and the height from the lower end of the hanging portion 202 to the lower upper edge portion 201 is equal to the height from the lower end of the front wall 20 to the lower upper edge portion 201.

[0031] The right wall 23 is divided by two vertical cuts 230a formed along the vertical direction and a connecting cut 230b formed to connect the upper ends of the vertical cuts 230a, and a hook portion 230 is formed that can be raised outward with the lower ends of the vertical cuts 230a as its base.

[0032] The upper flap 3 includes a rear wall upper flap 30 that is continuous with the upper end of the rear wall 21 via a fold L1, a left wall upper flap 31 that is continuous with the upper end of the left wall 22 via a fold L2, and a right wall upper flap 32 that is continuous with the upper end of the right wall 23 via a fold L3.

[0033] The rear wall upper flap 30 has an upper covering portion 300 extending from a fold L1 and a front apron portion 301 that is continuous with the front end of the upper covering portion 300 via a fold L4. The upper covering portion 300 has the same shape as the upper surface of the internal space 6, and the front overhang portion 301 has a length that covers the outer surface of the front wall 20 and reaches the lower end of the front wall 20.

[0034] The front flap 301 narrows slightly towards the lower end, and the insert piece 302 is continuous with the center of the lower end of the front flap 301 via a fold L5.

[0035] A fold L6 parallel to folds L1 and L4 is formed on the upper covering portion 300. The length from the lower end of the front overhang portion 301 to fold L6 is the same as the distance from the lower end (fold L7) of the rear wall 21 to fold L6.

[0036] The left wall upper flap 31 and the right wall upper flap 32 are formed with the front of their tip cut out, making them slightly narrower than their base ends.

[0037] The lengths from the folds L2 and L3 to the tips of the left wall upper flap 31 and the right wall upper flap 32 are approximately equal to the heights of the left wall 22 and the right wall 23, and the left wall upper flap 31 and the right wall upper flap 32 overlap each other when folded and placed over the upper surface of the internal space 6.

[0038] The lower flap 4 includes a rear wall lower flap 40 that is continuous with the lower end of the rear wall 21 via a fold L7, a left wall lower flap 41 that is continuous with the lower end of the left wall 22 via a fold L8, and a right wall lower flap 42 that is continuous with the lower end of the right wall 23 via a fold L9.

[0039] The rear wall lower flap 40 has the same shape as the lower surface of the internal space 6, and a long, elongated drainage section 400 is formed in the center in the width direction.

[0040] Near the left and right ends of the position where the fold L7 is formed, rear wall leg portions 210 that are continuous with the lower end of the rear wall 21 are formed by cutting out the rear wall lower flap 40, so that a drainage portion 401 is formed in the part of the rear wall lower flap 40 where the rear wall leg portions 210 were located.

[0041] At the front end of the rear wall lower flap 40, there are insertion parts 402 that are inserted into the inside of the lower end of the front wall 20 via two folds L10 located on both the left and right sides.

[0042] On both the left and right sides of the fold L10, protruding pieces 403 are formed that slightly protrude toward the insertion portion 402 side from the fold L10. When the insertion portion 402 folded in at the fold L10 is inserted into the inside of the front wall 20, the protruding pieces 403 on both sides abut against the inside of the front wall legs 200 of the front wall 20, functioning as spacers that form a gap between the fold L10 and 20. This gap formed between the fold L10 and 20 functions as a drainage section.

[0043] In the middle of the fold L10, a protruding piece 403 is formed that slightly protrudes toward the insertion portion 402 side from the fold L10. When the insertion portion 402 folded in at the fold L10 is inserted into the inside of the front wall 20, the protruding piece 403 in the middle portion abuts against the lower end of the front wall 20, restricting the upward movement of the rear wall lower flap 40.

[0044] An insertion notch 404 is formed at the tip of the protruding piece 403 in the middle section for inserting the insertion piece 302 of the rear wall upper flap 30.

[0045] The left lower wall flap 41 and the right lower wall flap 42 have a length from the folds L8 and L9 to their tips that is approximately half the width of the rear lower wall flap 40, and elongated drainage holes 410 and 420 are formed in the center of each, with the elongated holes extending in the width direction.

[0046] The front and rear ends of the left wall lower flap 41 are cut out to form drainage sections 411 and 412, respectively, and the front and rear ends of the right wall lower flap 42 are cut out to form drainage sections 421 and 422.

[0047] When the left lower flap 41 and the right lower flap 42 are folded to cover the lower surface (bottom) of the internal space 6, and the lower surfaces of the left lower flap 41 and the right lower flap 42 are covered with the rear lower flap 40, both ends of the elongated drainage portion 400 formed in the rear lower flap 40 coincide with the ends of the elongated drainage portions 410 and 420 formed in the left lower flap 41 and the right lower flap 42, and a drainage portion that penetrates the lower flap 4 is formed in the overlapping area between the left lower flap 41 and the right lower flap 42 and the rear lower flap 40.

[0048] Stage 5 has a mounting section 50 on which the soap is placed and which is stored in the internal space 6 together with the soap, and a support section 51 that supports the mounting section 50 from below.

[0049] The mounting section 50 is formed continuously from the lower end of the hanging section 202 via a fold L11. The width of the mounting section 50 is the same as or slightly narrower than the width of the internal space 6, and its length in the front-to-back direction is longer than the distance between the front wall 20 and the rear wall 21.

[0050] A circular drainage section 500 is formed in the center of the mounting section 50, and drainage sections 501 are formed at both the left and right ends of the mounting section 50 by cutting and bending downwards. The portions bent downwards to form the drainage sections 501 serve as reinforcing pieces 502 that reinforce the mounting section 50.

[0051] Furthermore, a drainage section 503 is formed in the center of the fold L11 between the mounting section 50 and the hanging section 202, with a through-hole that has a shape resembling a combination of a circle and an elongated hole.

[0052] The support portion 51 is formed continuously from the rear end of the mounting portion 50 via the fold L12. When the support portion 51 is folded downward from the fold L12 and its lower end comes into contact with the lower flap 4, the mounting portion 50 is inclined to become higher towards the rear.

[0053] Protruding portions 510 are formed near both the left and right ends of the lower end of the support portion 51. When the support portion 51 is folded downward from the fold line L12 and its lower end is brought into contact with the lower flap 4, the support portion 51 is stabilized by inserting and engaging the protruding portions 510 with the drainage portion 401 of the rear wall lower flap 40.

[0054] For convenience, Figure 3 shows the state just before the protruding portion 510 is fully inserted into the drainage portion 401 of the rear wall lower flap 40.

[0055] As shown in Figure 10, in sheet A, the rear end of the left wall 22 is continuous with the left end of the rear wall 21 via a fold L13, the left end of the front wall 20 is continuous with the front end of the left wall 22 via a fold L14, and the front end of the right wall 23 is continuous with the right end of the front wall 20 via a fold L15. Furthermore, an adhesive piece 211 is continuous with the rear wall 21 at its right end via a fold L16.

[0056] The rear wall upper flap 30 is continuous with the upper end of the rear wall 21 via a fold L1, the left wall upper flap 31 is continuous with the upper end of the left wall 22 via a fold L2, the hanging portion 202 is continuous with the lower upper edge portion 201 of the front wall 20, and the right wall upper flap 32 is continuous with the upper end of the right wall 23 via a fold L3.

[0057] The lower rear wall flap 40 is connected to the lower end of the rear wall 21 via a fold L7, the lower left wall flap 41 is connected to the lower end of the left wall 22 via a fold L8, and the lower right wall flap 42 is connected to the lower end of the right wall 23 via a fold L9.

[0058] Furthermore, it is desirable that sheet A be transparent or semi-transparent so that the soap stored in the internal space 6 is visible from the outside, and that at least a portion of the soap placed on stage 5 is transparent or semi-transparent. Furthermore, the outer surfaces of the side wall 2 and the rear wall upper flap 30 can be used to display instructions for use, product name, any other necessary product markings, or patterns.

[0059] To form the soap packaging box 1a, the folds L13, L14, L15, and L16 are folded in a mountain fold, and the adhesive piece 211 is attached to the inner surface of the rear end of the right wall 23 to assemble the rectangular side wall 2, forming an internal space 6 enclosed by the front wall 20, rear wall 21, left wall 22, and right wall 23.

[0060] Furthermore, the left wall lower flap 41 and the right wall lower flap 42 are folded inward from folds L8 and L9, respectively, and the rear wall lower flap 40 is folded backward from fold L7 and placed under the left wall lower flap 41 and the right wall lower flap 42, so that the lower flap 4 covers the lower side of the interior space 6. Fold at fold L10 and insert the insertion part 402 into the inside of the front wall 20.

[0061] Next, the hanging portion 202 is folded downward from the lower upper edge portion 201 (fold line L0) and overlapped along the inside of the front wall 20. Then, the mounting portion 50 is folded upward and rearward from the fold line L11, and the lower end of the support portion 51, which is folded downward from the fold line L12, is brought into contact with the upper surface of the lower flap 4.

[0062] Soap can be placed on the mounting section 50, which is inclined towards the front.

[0063] The left wall upper flap 31 and the right wall upper flap 32 are folded inward from folds L2 and L3, respectively, to cover the upper part (top surface) of the internal space 6. Next, the rear wall upper flap 30 is folded forward from fold L1 to overlap the top surface covering portion 300 on top of the left wall upper flap 31 and the right wall upper flap 32, and the upper flap 3 covers the upper part of the internal space 6.

[0064] Furthermore, the front flap 301 is folded downward from the fold line L4 and overlapped with the outside of the front wall 20, and the insertion piece 302 is folded inward from the fold line L5 and inserted into the insertion notch 404 of the rear wall lower flap 40, thereby holding the upper flap 3.

[0065] When using the soap, transform the soap packaging box 1a into a soap tray 1b as follows.

[0066] First, as shown in Figure 11, the insertion piece 302 of the rear wall upper flap 30 is removed from the insertion notch 404 of the rear wall lower flap 40 to open the rear wall upper flap 30 upward, and the left wall upper flap 31 and the right wall upper flap 32 are opened upward.

[0067] Next, as shown in Figure 12, the left wall upper flap 31 and the right wall upper flap 32 are folded downwards from folds L2 and L3, respectively, and overlapped on the inside of the left wall 22 and the right wall 23. The lower ends of the left wall upper flap 31 and the right wall upper flap 32 are positioned between the left wall 22, the right wall 23, and the stage 5.

[0068] The rear wall upper flap 30 is folded inward from the fold line L6 while open upward, and its lower end is inserted between the rear wall 21 and the support part 51, so that it is sandwiched and positioned.

[0069] By folding the upper flap 3 in this way to transform it into a soap tray 1b, the internal space 6 opens upward, allowing soap to be placed on and removed from the placement section 50. Since the lower upper edge 201 of the front wall 20 is lower than the rest of the side wall 2, it is easy to insert a finger into the internal space 6 from this lowered part and remove the soap placed on the resting part 50. Furthermore, the soap packaging box 1a that the soap was packaged in can be used as a soap tray 1b simply by folding it without cutting it, eliminating waste and material loss. In addition, if the soap packaging box 1a is cut, the cut surface becomes sharp (especially noticeable in the case of synthetic resin), which could cause users to cut their hands. However, in this embodiment, the soap packaging box 1a is not cut, and all the edges of sheet A can be rounded, for example, to prevent users from cutting their hands, thus ensuring safety.

[0070] When used soap is placed on the resting section 50, the water adhering to the soap falls through the drainage sections 500 and 501 of the resting section 50 onto the left wall lower flap 41 and the right wall lower flap 42, and then falls downward through the drainage sections 410, 411, and 412 of the left wall lower flap 41 and the drainage sections 420, 421, and 422 of the right wall lower flap 42.

[0071] Furthermore, some of the water that passes through the drainage sections 410 and 420 falls below the soap tray 1b through a drainage section formed by the overlapping of the left wall lower flap 41, the right wall lower flap 42 and the rear wall lower flap 40, where the ends of the drainage sections 410 and 420 and the end of the drainage section 400 overlap.

[0072] Furthermore, the drainage portion 401 formed in conjunction with the formation of the rear wall leg portion 210 and the through-hole of the opening formed in conjunction with the formation of the protruding piece 403 also perform the drainage function formed in the rear wall lower flap 40.

[0073] Some of the moisture on the mounting section 50 flows down according to the slope of the mounting section 50 and falls onto the rear wall lower flap 40 through the drainage section 503 formed at the lowest position.

[0074] The water that flows down from the rear end of the mounting section 50 along the rear surface of the support section 51 falls down from the drainage section 401.

[0075] The water that falls onto the rear wall lower flap 40 falls below the soap tray 1b through the opening formed by the drainage sections 400, 401 and the protruding piece 403.

[0076] A front wall leg portion 200 is formed at the lower end of the front wall 20, and a rear wall leg portion 210 is formed at the lower end of the rear wall 21. Since the lower flap 4 is raised above the contact surface of the soap tray 1b, there is no need to worry about moisture accumulating under the soap tray 1b.

[0077] Small puffs and sponges used when washing your face or massaging with soap can be hung on the hook portion 230 that extends outward from the side wall 2, preventing them from getting lost or becoming unsanitary due to moisture. In particular, if the puff has a recess for inserting your fingertips to attach it, the hook portion 230 can be hung on the recess, allowing it to dry and preventing it from getting lost.

[0078] [Other variations] This invention is not limited to the embodiments described above. For example, the following are also included.

[0079] The soap packaging box can store a facial cleansing puff along with the soap inside. It is recommended to create a recess in the puff for inserting the upper end of the hook.

[0080] In this embodiment, the hook portion is formed on the right wall, but it may be formed on any side wall (for example, the left wall or the front wall). Multiple hooks may also be provided.

[0081] In this embodiment, the front flap of the rear wall is overlapped up to the lower end of the portion of the front wall excluding the front wall legs, but the front flap may be overlapped up to a position lower than the lower upper edge of the front wall.

[0082] In this embodiment, upper flaps are continuously provided on the upper ends of the rear wall, left wall, and right wall, respectively. However, only upper flaps on the rear wall may be provided, or only upper flaps on the left wall and right wall, along with the upper flaps on the rear wall, may be formed.

[0083] In this embodiment, the lower flaps are continuously attached to the lower ends of the rear wall, left wall, and right wall, respectively. However, a lower flap may be continuously attached to the lower end of the front wall, and it is not necessary to continuously attach a lower flap to the lower ends of all three walls (rear wall, left wall, and right wall).

[0084] In this embodiment, the left lower flap 41 and the rear lower flap 40 form an overlapping portion, and the right lower flap 42 and the rear lower flap 40 also form an overlapping portion, with a drainage portion forming through them. However, the embodiment is not limited to this. For example, a drainage portion may be formed through the overlapping portion formed by the left lower flap 41 and the right lower flap 42, or a drainage portion may be formed through the overlapping portion formed by all of the left lower flap 41, the right lower flap 42, and the rear lower flap 40. In other words, at least two of the lower flaps may overlap to form an overlapping portion, and a drainage portion may be formed in this overlapping portion.

[0085] The position of the drainage section formed on each lower flap can be changed as needed.

[0086] In this embodiment, when used as a soap packaging box 1a for packaging soap, the upper flap 3 is described as the top side and the lower flap 4 as the bottom side. However, it is not limited to this, and when used as a soap packaging box 1a, any of the side walls 2, upper flap 3, and lower flap 4 may be used as the top side or the bottom side, depending on the transportation method or circumstances such as packing into a larger box. Also, the soap packaging box 1a may be used to display products on shelves in stores, and in this case, any of the sides may be used as the top side, the bottom side, or the display side (the side that customers see when placed on a shelf). For example, the left wall 22 may be used as the top side, the right wall 23 as the bottom side, and the back wall 21 as the display side when displayed on a shelf.

[0087] Each technical matter in any embodiment, including variations, may be applied to other embodiments to form another embodiment. [Explanation of Symbols]
