Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a paper display stand used when placing a display stand on the floor.

Background Art

[0002] Paper display stands have been used for some time as furniture for displaying new products and the like in stores. By using a display stand, the eye-catching effect of the products displayed on the display stand can be enhanced. Commonly used display stands are tabletop types (for example, Patent Document 1). Tabletop display stands are placed at store cash counters and the like. In recent years, there has been an increasing case of using a PDQ package (PDQ: PDQ Pretty Darn Quick) that can display products just by opening it as a tabletop display stand.

[0003] When placing a tabletop display stand on the floor, in addition to the tabletop display stand, a paper display stand on which the tabletop display stand is placed is used (for example, Patent Document 2). The display stand (sales stand) disclosed in Patent Document 2 includes a main body formed by bonding two blanks having two sides to form a quadrangular prism, and a support 3 that intersects two blanks with slits in a cross shape and is stored in the main body.

[0004] Tabletop display stands and the like are transported to stores where the tabletop display stands are installed. When placing a tabletop display stand on the floor, in addition to the tabletop display stand, the display stand is transported to the store. Therefore, when placing a tabletop display stand on the floor, an additional transportation cost for the display stand is required.

[0005] In consideration of transportation, conventional display stands are configured to be foldable. The display stand disclosed in Patent Document 2 can be folded substantially flat by using a fold line connecting the plates of the display stand. Also, the display stand (display stand) disclosed in Patent Document 3 uses a packing member as a member of the display stand. The display stand (display stand) disclosed in Patent Document 3 can be transported in a state where everything is packed inside the packing member.

[0006] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2021-69412 [Patent Document 2] Utility Model Registration No. 3139623 (Publication) [Patent Document 3] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2020-192111 [Overview of the Initiative] [Problems that the invention aims to solve]

[0007] However, display stands are larger than tabletop display stands. Even when a display stand that is larger than a tabletop display stand is folded flat, the size of the folded display stand will still be larger than that of a tabletop display stand. For this reason, the shipping cost of a folded display stand is not significantly cheaper.

[0008] When considering the transportation of display stands that are larger than tabletop display stands, it is desirable that they can be folded flat to a size similar to that of tabletop display stands. If display stands that are larger than tabletop display stands can be folded flat to a size similar to that of tabletop display stands, then the folded display stand and the tabletop display stand can be transported together in a single package. Transporting the folded display stand and the tabletop display stand together in a single package can, for example, reduce the cost of transporting the folded display stand.

[0009] Therefore, the present invention aims to provide a paper display stand that can be folded into a small and flat shape. [Means for solving the problem]

[0010] The first invention, which solves the above-mentioned problems, is a foldable display stand comprising a rectangular tube having a front panel, a back panel, and side panels, and a support structure formed by crossing two support plates with slits in a cross shape to create a grid pattern. In order to offset the creases that occur when folding, in the rectangular tube, the shape of either the front panel or the side panel is a vertically elongated hexagon with a horizontal V-shaped side edge that bends outward, and the shape of the other is a drum shape with a horizontal V-shaped side edge that bends inward. Furthermore, even if the creases that occur when folding are offset, the rectangular tube can be folded flat. beside A V-shaped folding line is provided on the side panel. Furthermore, in order to make the foldable display stand according to the first invention smaller, a folding line for folding in half in the vertical direction is provided on each of the front panel, back panel, and side panels that make up the rectangular tube, as well as on the support panel that makes up the support body. Furthermore, in the first invention, when the angle that one line segment constituting the horizontal V shape makes with the height direction is defined as the line segment angle, the line segment angle relating to the folding lines of the horizontal V shape is the sum of the line segment angle relating to the side edge of the horizontal V shape on the front panel and the line segment angle relating to the side edge of the horizontal V shape on the back panel.

[0011] Furthermore, the second invention, which solves the above-mentioned problems, has a front panel, a back panel, and a side panel, wherein the shape of either the front panel or the side panel is a vertically elongated hexagon with a horizontal V-shaped side edge that bends outward, and the shape of the other panel is a drum shape with a horizontal V-shaped side edge that bends inward. beside A V-shaped folding line is provided on the side panel, and a folding line for folding in half vertically is provided on each of the front panel, the back panel, and the side panel. When the angle that one line segment constituting the horizontal V-shape makes with the height direction is defined as the line segment angle, the line segment angle relating to the folding lines of the horizontal V-shape is the sum of the line segment angle relating to the side edge of the horizontal V-shape on the front panel and the line segment angle relating to the side edge of the horizontal V-shape on the back panel. The rectangular tube is characterized by the following. The rectangular tube according to the second invention is an invention relating to a rectangular tube required for the foldable display stand according to the first invention. [Effects of the Invention]

[0012] The folding display stand according to the present invention is configured to be folded flat and small by shifting the creases that occur when folding the angular cylinder. When the folding display stand can be folded flat and small, the resources (e.g., cardboard) required for transporting the folding display stand can be reduced. Also, when the folding display stand can be folded flat and small, more folding display stands can be transported by one vehicle, and the energy (e.g., gasoline) required for transporting the folding display stand can be reduced. Reducing the resources and energy required for transporting the folding display stand leads to a reduction in CO2. From this, it can be said that the folding display stand according to the present invention is an environmentally considerate design required by companies.

Modes for Carrying Out the Invention

[0014] Hereinafter, embodiments according to the present invention will be described. This embodiment is for facilitating the understanding of the present invention. The present invention is not limited to the embodiments described hereinafter. Also, unless otherwise specified, the drawings are schematic diagrams drawn for facilitating the understanding of the present invention.

[0015] In this embodiment, the phrase "substantially" may be used. In this embodiment, "substantially" means a state that is not complete but is close enough to be regarded as such. For example, a substantially square prism means a shape that is not strictly a square prism but can be regarded as a square prism. Also, in the drawings, the ruled lines for mountain folding are shown as dashed-dotted lines, and the ruled lines for valley folding are shown as broken lines.

[0016] FIG. 1 is a diagram for explaining the appearance of the foldable display stand 1 according to this embodiment. The foldable display stand 1 according to this embodiment is a stand used when placing a display stand placed on a store counter or the like on the floor. As shown in FIG. 1, the foldable display stand 1 according to this embodiment is at least composed of a foldable angular body 2 and a support 3 formed by assembling two support plates 30 in a crossbeam shape and storing them in the angular body 2.

[0017] The support 3 constituting the foldable display stand 1 supports a display stand placed on the foldable display stand 1 at an appropriate height. On the support 3 shown in FIG. 1, two protruding pieces 302 to be inserted into holes (not shown) processed on the bottom surface of the display stand are provided on the back side. Note that instead of directly placing the display stand on the support 3, a top plate on which the display stand is placed can also be placed on the support 3.

[0018] The angular body 2 is of an angular tube shape that covers the support 3. The height of the angular body 2 is adjusted to the height of the support 3. On the surface of the angular body 2, it is possible to print the promotion of products displayed using the foldable display stand 1, or the promotion of the store where the foldable display stand 1 is installed, etc.

[0019] An upper end flap 27 is provided at the upper edge of the rectangular tube 2 shown in Figure 1. The upper end flap 27 is used to support the display stand that is placed on the folding display stand 1. For example, in the case of a display stand with a front flap, one of the upper end flaps 27 can be used to support the front flap of the display stand.

[0020] A lower end flap 28 is provided at the lower edge of the support body 3 shown in Figure 1. The lower end flap 28 is for supporting the rectangular tube 2 installed on the floor. Each of the lower end flaps 28 makes contact with the floor, making it less likely for the rectangular tube 2 installed on the floor to tip over.

[0021] From here, the rectangular tube 2 and support 3 that constitute the foldable display stand 1 according to this embodiment will be described.

[0022] First, the rectangular tube 2 that constitutes the foldable display stand 1 according to this embodiment will be described. Figure 2 is a diagram illustrating the external appearance of the rectangular tube 2. Figure 3 is a diagram illustrating the blank used to form the rectangular tube 2. Figure 4 is a diagram illustrating how the rectangular tube 2 is folded. Figure 5 is a front view of the rectangular tube 2. Figure 6 is a rear view of the rectangular tube 2. Figure 7 is a side view of the rectangular tube 2. Figure 8 is a diagram illustrating the line segment angles of the folding lines 25.

[0023] As shown in Figure 2, the rectangular tube 2 has the form of a roughly rectangular prism with a hollow interior. Paper is used as the material for the rectangular tube 2. The rectangular tube 2, which houses the support 3 inside, needs to have enough rigidity to stand on its own. Also, in order for the foldable display stand 1 to be folded flat and compactly, the rectangular tube 2 needs to be able to be folded flat and compactly as well. For this reason, it is preferable to use cardboard other than corrugated cardboard for the rectangular tube 2. In this embodiment, 36kg cardboard in 4 / 6 size is used for the rectangular tube 2.

[0024] As shown in Figure 2, the rectangular tube 2 that constitutes the foldable display stand 1 comprises one front panel 20, one back panel 21, and two side panels 22. In this embodiment, the rectangular tube 2 is formed by bonding together a first blank 200 (Figure 3(a)) which has the front panel 20 and the side panel 22 connected, and a second blank 202 (Figure 3(b)) which has the side panel 22 and the back panel 21 connected.

[0025] The right edge of the first blank 200 shown in Figure 3(a) is provided with a gluing flap 201 for gluing to the left edge of the second blank 202 shown in Figure 3(b). Similarly, the right edge of the second blank 202 shown in Figure 3(b) is provided with a gluing flap 203 for gluing to the left edge of the first blank 200 shown in Figure 3(a). By using the gluing flap 201 to glue the right edge of the first blank 200 to the left edge of the second blank 202, and by using the gluing flap 203 to glue the right edge of the second blank 202 to the left edge of the first blank 200, a rectangular tube 2 can be formed.

[0026] An upper edge flap 27 is provided on the upper edge of the first blank 200 shown in Figure 3(a) and the upper edge of the second blank 202 shown in Figure 3(b), via a ruled line 270. In addition, a lower edge flap 28 is provided on the lower edge of the first blank 200 shown in Figure 3(a) and the lower edge of the second blank 202 shown in Figure 3(b), via a ruled line 280.

[0027] The rectangular tube 2 is provided with creases to form each of its plates. As shown in Figure 3(a) and other figures, the rectangular tube 2 is provided with two front plate creases 23 for folding to form the front plate 20. The front plate creases 23 are creases that form the boundary between the front plate 20 and the side plate 22. In this embodiment, the front plate creases 23 are in a horizontal V shape that bends on the outside of the rectangular tube 2.

[0028] As illustrated in Figure 3(b) and other figures, the rectangular tube 2 is provided with two back panel creases 24 for folding to form the back panel 21. The back panel creases 24 are creases that form the boundary between the back panel 21 and the side panel 22. In this embodiment, the back panel creases 24 are in a horizontal V shape that bends inside the rectangular tube 2.

[0029] Furthermore, the rectangular tube 2 is provided with creases used for folding the rectangular tube 2. As illustrated in Figures 3(a) and 3(b), each side plate 22 of the rectangular tube 2 is provided with a folding crease 25 for folding the side plate 22 inward. In this embodiment, the folding crease 25 is in a horizontal V shape that bends on the back side of the rectangular tube 2.

[0030] Furthermore, each plate forming the rectangular tube 2 is provided with a fold line 26 for folding in half. The fold line 26a processed on the front plate 20 is a valley fold line. As shown in Figure 3(a), the front plate line 23 is approximately symmetrical with respect to the fold line 26a. The fold line 26b processed on the back plate 21 is a mountain fold line. As shown in Figure 3(b), the back plate line 24 is approximately symmetrical with respect to the fold line 26b. As shown in Figure 3, the fold line 26c processed on the side plate 22 consists of a mountain fold line and a valley fold line. The folding line 25 is approximately symmetrical with respect to the fold line 26c.

[0031] As shown in Figure 2 and other figures, the rectangular tube 2 can be folded flat and compactly as shown in Figure 4(b) by first folding the side plate 22 inward along the folding lines 25 provided on the side plate 22 as shown in Figure 4(a), and then folding the rectangular tube 2 in half vertically along the double-fold lines 26.

[0032] Since cardboard other than corrugated cardboard is used for the rectangular tube 2, the creases created when folding along the score lines on the rectangular tube 2 become thicker. Therefore, if the creases are concentrated when folding the rectangular tube 2, it becomes impossible to fold the rectangular tube 2 neatly. To prevent this, the rectangular tube 2 of this embodiment is designed to offset the creases created when folding the rectangular tube 2.

[0033] In order to offset the creases that occur when folding the rectangular tube 2, the shape of the front panel 20 and the shape of the back panel 21 are different in the rectangular tube 2 of this embodiment. As described above, the front panel 20 is formed by mountain folding along the front panel crease line 23, which is a horizontal V shape that bends on the outside of the front panel 20. For this reason, as shown in Figure 5, the shape of the front panel 20 is a vertically elongated hexagon with a horizontal V-shaped side edge that bends on the outside of the rectangular tube 2. The front panel 20 is approximately symmetrical with respect to the double-fold crease line 26a as the axis of symmetry.

[0034] Furthermore, as described above, the back panel 21 is formed by mountain folding along the back panel crease 24, which is a horizontal V-shape that bends on the inside of the back panel 21. Therefore, as shown in Figure 6, the shape of the back panel 21 is a drum shape with a horizontal V-shaped side edge that bends on the inside of the rectangular tube 2. The back panel 21 is approximately symmetrical with respect to the double-fold crease 26b as the axis of symmetry. In this embodiment, the shape of the front panel 20 is a vertically elongated hexagon and the shape of the back panel 21 is a drum shape, but it is also possible to make the shape of the front panel 20 a drum shape and the shape of the back panel 21 a vertically elongated hexagon.

[0035] The front panel 20 is shaped like a vertically elongated hexagon, and the back panel 21 is shaped like a drum, in order to offset the folds along the side edges of the front panel 20 and the back panel 21. By making the front panel 20 a vertically elongated hexagon and the back panel 21 a drum, when the rectangular tube 2 is viewed from the front, the folds along the side edges of the front panel 20 and the back panel 21 can be offset in the height direction. As a result, as shown in Figure 4(b), when the rectangular tube 2 according to this embodiment is folded, the folds along the side edges of the front panel 20 are offset from the folds along the side edges of the back panel 21, protruding from them.

[0036] By making the front panel 20 a vertically elongated hexagon and the back panel 21 a drum shape, the shape of the side panel 22 is also no longer rectangular. As shown in Figures 3 and 7, on the side panel 22, the side edge on the side connected to the front panel 20 forms a horizontal V shape along the side edge of the front panel 20, and the side edge on the side connected to the back panel 21 forms a horizontal V shape along the side edge of the back panel 21.

[0037] The folding line 25 is a line that extends in the height direction from the center of the upper edge of the side panel 22 to the center of the lower edge of the side panel 22. Since the shape of the side panel 22 is no longer rectangular, the shape of the folding line 25 is no longer a simple straight line. The folding line 25 provided on the side panel 22 has a shape that absorbs the difference between the shape of the side edge of the front panel 20 and the shape of the side edge of the back panel 21.

[0038] In Figure 8, a portion of the unfolded rectangular tube 2 is shown for clarity. To compensate for the difference in shape between the side edge of the front panel 20 and the side edge of the back panel 21, the folding lines 25 provided on the side panel 22 are as shown in Figure 8. It forms a horizontal V shape. The angle θ3 of the line segment of the folded ruled line 25 is, It is the sum of the line segment angle θ1 of the side edge of the horizontally V-shaped front panel 20 and the line segment angle θ2 of the side edge of the horizontally V-shaped back panel 21. 。 Note that a line segment is a component of a V-shape. two Straight line One of ours This means that the angle of the line segment is the height direction. When based on angle of a line segment That is In Figure 8, the line segment angle θ1 of the side edge of the front panel 20 and the line segment angle θ2 of the side edge of the back panel 21 are the same. Therefore, the line segment angle θ3 of the folding rule line 25 is twice the line segment angle θ1 of the side edge of the front panel 20.

[0039] As explained above, in the rectangular tube 2 according to this embodiment, the front panel crease 23, the back panel crease 24, and the folding crease 25 are all horizontal V-shaped. Therefore, in the rectangular tube 2 according to this embodiment, there are no two substantially parallel lines among the creases used when folding the rectangular tube 2. Consequently, the process of joining the first blank 200 and the second blank 202 into a rectangular tube shape becomes extremely difficult. To address this, as illustrated in Figure 3 and other figures, the blank used to form the rectangular tube 2 according to this embodiment is provided with a straight discard crease 29 on the side panel 22, which is used only for the process of joining the first blank 200 and the second blank 202 into a rectangular tube shape. By valley-folding the discard crease 29, the process of joining the first blank 200 and the second blank 202 into a rectangular tube shape can be easily performed.

[0040] The support 3 housed in the rectangular tube 2 will now be described. Figure 9 is a diagram illustrating the external appearance of the support 3. Figure 10 is a diagram illustrating the support plate 30. Figure 11 is a diagram illustrating how the support plate 30 is assembled. Figure 12 is a diagram illustrating how the rectangular tube 2 and the support 3 are assembled.

[0041] As shown in Figure 9, the support 3 according to this embodiment is composed of at least two support plates 30 with slits 300 processed into them. The support 3 has a structure in which the two support plates 30 are intersected in a cross shape using the slits 300 and assembled in a grid pattern.

[0042] Similar to the rectangular tube 2, paper is used for the support 3. The support 3 supports the display stand that is placed on the foldable display stand 1 at an appropriate height (for example, 800 mm). Therefore, the support 3 needs to have sufficient rigidity to support the display stand. For this reason, corrugated cardboard is preferable for the support 3. In this embodiment, A-flute corrugated cardboard is used for the support 3.

[0043] The height of the support plate 30 that constitutes the support structure 3 is determined based on the height at which the display stand is supported. The height of the rectangular tube 2 is set to match the height of the support plate 30. The width of the support plate 30 is slightly shorter than the length of the diagonal of the rectangular tube 2. This is because if the width of the support plate 30 were the same as the length of the diagonal of the rectangular tube 2, the support structure 3 would not be able to be neatly stored in the rectangular tube 2.

[0044] Each of the support plates 30 that make up the support body 3 shown in Figure 10 has a fold line 301 processed into it for folding the support plate 30 in half. To allow them to be assembled in a grid pattern, one support plate 30a has a slit 300a processed into it that extends in the height direction from the center of the fold line 301 to the lower edge, as shown in Figure 10(a). The other support plate 30b has a slit 300b processed into it that extends in the height direction from the center of the fold line 301 to the upper edge, as shown in Figure 10(b).

[0045] As shown in Figure 11, by aligning the positions of slit 300a and slit 300b, intersecting support plates 30a and 30b in a cross shape, and inserting the slit 300a processed in support plate 30a into the slit 300b processed in support plate 30b, the support body 3 shown in Figure 9 can be assembled.

[0046] The assembly method for the folding display stand 1 will now be explained. As shown in Figure 12, when assembling the folding display stand 1, the procedure is the reverse of when it is folded flat and compact. Two support members 3, which have been folded in half and returned to a flat state, are pushed into the rectangular tube 2, which has been returned to a rectangular tube shape, and the support members 3 assembled in a grid pattern are pushed into the rectangular tube 2, which has been returned to a rectangular tube shape.

[0047] Figure 13 illustrates the packaging configuration of the foldable display stand 1. The packaging configuration of the foldable display stand 1 according to this embodiment will now be described. By folding the side panel 22 along the processed folding lines 25 and then folding the rectangular tube 2 in half along the double-fold lines 26, the rectangular tube 2 can be folded flat and compactly to about 1 / 4 of its original size, as shown in Figure 4(b). Furthermore, by folding in half using the double-fold lines, each of the support plates 30 constituting the support body 3 can be folded to approximately half its size.

[0048] In this embodiment of the foldable display stand 1, the rectangular tube 2, which is folded flat and compactly, and the support 3, which is also folded compactly, can be stacked and stored in a packaging box. As shown in Figure 13, in this embodiment, the size of the folded support plate 30 is larger than the size of the rectangular tube 2, which is folded flat and compactly. Therefore, in this embodiment, a thin box that can accommodate the folded support plate 30 can be used to transport the foldable display stand 1 according to this embodiment.

[0049] Finally, the usage of the foldable display stand 1 will be described. Figure 14 is a diagram illustrating the usage of the foldable display stand 1. As shown in Figure 14, a display stand 4 for displaying goods is placed on top of the foldable display stand 1. The display stand 4 shown in Figure 14 is equipped with a front flap 40. The front flap 40 of the display stand 4 is supported by utilizing one of the upper end flaps 27 of the rectangular tube body 2.

[0050] The display stand 4, which is placed on top of the foldable display stand 1, is designed to be placed on a store counter. Therefore, it is necessary to design the display stand 4 first, and then design the foldable display stand 1 to match the display stand 4 that will be placed on top of the foldable display stand 1.

[0051] In this embodiment, the front panel 20 of the rectangular tube 2 is made into a vertically elongated hexagon and the back panel 21 is made into a drum shape, so the folding display stand 1 can be easily designed to match the bottom surface of the display stand 4 that is placed on the folding display stand 1. The bottom surface of a display stand is almost always square. In the folding display stand 1 according to this embodiment, by simply matching the length of the upper edges of the front panel 20 and back panel 21 that make up the rectangular tube 2 to the width of the display stand that is placed on the folding display stand 1, and by matching the length of the depth of the side panel 22 that makes up the rectangular tube 2 to the depth of the display stand that is placed on the folding display stand 1, the folding display stand 1 can be easily designed to match the size of the top surface to the size of the bottom surface of the display stand 4.
