Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a canned food attachment member for attaching canned food as a prize to a product for sale.

Background Art

[0002] In some cases, a prize may be attached to an item to be sold for the purpose of promoting sales. In such a case, for example, when the product is canned beer, there is a method of putting the prize in a rectangular box and inserting an insertion piece into the gap of a sleeve-shaped multi-pack for attachment (Patent Document 1). However, according to the method described in Patent Document 1, in addition to the manufacturing cost of the rectangular box, a lot of labor is required for a series of operations of assembling the box, enclosing the prize, and attaching it to the item, resulting in a significant cost.

[0003] On the other hand, in recent years, canned fish and meat have been increasingly adopted as prizes for beer. Since these canned foods are made of metal cans, they have sufficient strength by themselves, and moreover, printing etc. is applied to the surface, so there is no need to enclose them in a cardboard box. Therefore, there has been a demand for a new attachment member suitable for canned foods.

Modes for Carrying Out the Invention

[0019] With reference to the following drawings, the canned food attachment member according to the present invention will be described in detail. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a state in which a canned food 10 is attached to an article 20 using an embodiment of the canned food attachment member 1 according to the present invention. FIG. 2 is a schematic plan view of the canned food attachment member 1 shown in FIG. 1. FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional explanatory view showing a state in which the canned food 10 is attached using the canned food attachment member 1 shown in FIG. 2.

[0020] The canned food attachment member 1 according to the present invention has a winding portion 12 only on either the upper surface or the lower surface. A canned food attachment member 1 for attaching a canned food 10 to another article, characterized in that it has a front panel 2 through which the body portion 11 of the canned food 10 to be attached can pass and an opening 4 smaller than the winding portion 12 of the canned food, and an attachment portion 3 for attaching the front panel 2 to the article 20.

[0021] In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, as shown in FIG. 2, it is composed of a front panel 2 and an insertion piece 5 as an attachment portion 3. A crease line is provided at the base of the insertion piece 5, and by folding this crease line in a valley fold, it can be inserted from both sides of the front plate of the canned beer multipack, which is an article.

[0022] The front panel 2 is provided with an opening 4, and the diameter of the opening 4 is made such that the body portion 11 of the canned food 10 can pass through, but the winding portion 12 cannot pass through. Therefore, when attaching the canned food 10 to the article 20, as shown in FIG. 3, it can be completed by a very simple operation of inserting the body portion 11 of the canned food 10 from the back side of the front panel 2 and folding the crease line of the insertion piece 5 and inserting it into the back side of the front plate of the article 20.

[0023] In this example, as the material used for the canned food attachment member 1, in addition to general cardboard, materials such as plastic plates and metal plates can be used. Plastic materials having the property of maintaining the shape of the insertion piece when folded can be preferably used. Also, a metal plate such as a thick aluminum foil may be added to the back side of the insertion piece 5.

[0024] In the example shown in FIG. 2, two folding lines are provided on each of the left and right sides. This is because there are two types of products with different width dimensions among the articles to be attached, and depending on the article, either one of the two folding lines can be folded and used.

[0025] FIG. 4 is a schematic plan view showing another embodiment of the canned food attachment member 1 according to the present invention. FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional explanatory view showing a state in which the canned food 10 is attached using the canned food attachment member 1 shown in FIG. 4.

[0026] In this example, the attachment portion 3 is an adhesive 6 provided on the back surface of the front panel 2. The adhesive 6 may be provided directly on the back surface of the front panel 2, or may be partially provided using a double-sided adhesive tape or the like. According to the method of using the adhesive, the attachment of the canned food 10 to the article 20 is completed by a simpler operation of simply peeling off the release paper.

[0027] FIG. 6 is a schematic plan view showing another embodiment of the canned food attachment member 1 according to the present invention. In this example, a plurality of cuts 7 are provided around the opening 4 of the front panel 2. Due to the presence of the cuts 7, the diameter of the opening 4 can be made slightly smaller than the diameter of the body portion 11 of the canned food 10. This is because when the body portion 11 of the canned food 10 is inserted into the opening 4, the cuts 7 open, allowing the body portion 11, which is slightly larger than the diameter of the opening 4, to be inserted.

[0028] By doing so, the canned food 10 is held in the canned food attachment member 1 without any gaps and rattling is eliminated.

[0029] FIG. 7 is a schematic plan view showing an embodiment of the canned food attachment member 30 according to another aspect of the present invention. FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional explanatory view showing a state in which the canned food 10 is attached using the canned food attachment member 30 shown in FIG. 7. In this example, a first opening 32 is provided in the front panel 31 in the same manner as the above-described canned food attachment member 1. A back panel 33 is connected to the front panel 31, and a second opening 34 is provided in the back panel 33. Also, parts not particularly described may be the same as those in the above-described embodiments.

[0030] After the body 11 of the canned food 10 is inserted into the first opening 32, the back panel 33 is folded back toward the crimping portion 12 side and overlapped with the front panel 31, and is attached to the front panel 31 with an adhesive margin 35 to fix the opposing sides 36, 36'. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the canned food 10 from falling out toward the crimping portion 12 side. Then, by folding the crease line of the insertion piece 5 as the attachment portion 3 and providing an adhesive 6 such as a double-sided adhesive tape on the surface and attaching it to the article 20, it can be easily attached to the article 20.

[0031] In the canned food attachment member 30 of the present embodiment, since the insertion piece 5 as the attachment portion 3 is provided only on one side, as shown in FIG. 8(b), the canned food attachment member 30 can be rotated about the attachment portion 3 as the central axis. When the canned food attachment member 30 is rotated, the back panel 33 side becomes visible, and since the second opening 34 is open in the back panel 33, information such as the expiration date, consumption date, and manufacturing date printed on the lid of the canned food 10 can be read through the second opening 34, and it is possible to easily confirm matters such as whether the canned food has passed its expiration date. The position, size, and shape of the second opening 34 are not particularly limited as long as they are suitable for the above uses, and may be set and provided as appropriate.

[0032] Although not particularly shown, after attaching the back panel 33 to the front panel 31 as described above, the crease line of the insertion piece 5 may be folded and inserted into the front panel of the article or the like for attachment. Further, an adhesive having a weak adhesive force and being easily peeled off may be provided on the back panel 33 on the side where the insertion piece 5 is not provided.
