Embodiment

Describe with regard to embodiments of the invention below, but only otherwise exceed aim of the present invention, be not subjected to any restriction of present embodiment.

C is a Foldable container, Foldable container C comprises that aspect is that roughly rectangular bottom 1, hinge are connected the short sidewall 3 on long sidewall and 1 the relative short brink dyke 1b bottom hinge is connected on 1 the relative long side dyke 1a of bottom, and the height of the aspect ratio short brink dyke 1b of the long side dyke 1a of bottom 1 is low.

As shown in Figure 1, when the Foldable container C of folding assembling boxlike-forming, as shown in Figure 2, the long sidewall 2 of approximate vertical state was fallen into the approximate horizontal state, then the short sidewall 3 of approximate vertical state was fallen into the approximate horizontal state and overlapped on the long sidewall 2 that had before fallen, thus can be as being folded into highly low, compact state as shown in Figure 3.Perhaps, at first the short sidewall 3 of approximate horizontal state is generally perpendicularly erected as illustrated in fig. 2 from folded state shown in Figure 3, the long sidewall 2 with the approximate horizontal state is erected into approximate vertical then, can be assembled into box-shaped as shown in Figure 1.

P is for being housed in the insulating element in the Foldable container C, insulating element P is by the roughly the same laminal horizontal plate p1 of oblong of the size and the aspect of bottom 1, constitute along long limit and the vertically upwardly extending laminal folded side plate p2 of horizontal plate p1 of horizontal plate p1, have the roughly base portion P ' of U font, the relative folded side plate p2 that is connected on the long limit of horizontal plate p1 constitutes and can rotate with respect to horizontal plate p1 at the connecting portion p3 place of horizontal plate p1 and folded side plate p2.As an example, by forming thinner wall section or be interrupted hole line (ミシ Application order) etc. on the connecting portion p3 of horizontal plate p1 and folded side plate p2, folded side plate p2 can rotate with respect to horizontal plate p1 at the connecting portion p3 of horizontal plate p1 and folded side plate p2.

P4 for folded side plate p2 almost parallel ground be installed on the horizontal plate p1 that is positioned at the central portion between relative folded side plate p2, the central spacing block of prism-shaped roughly, p5 be installed in folded side plate p2 horizontal plate p1 upper area, the sidepiece spacing block of prism roughly.By in the lower corners of central spacing block p4 one side of side spacing block p5 undercut bight as required, form dip plane p5a thus.

On being installed in the central spacing block p4 on the horizontal plate p1 that constitutes insulating element P and being installed in sidepiece spacing block p5 on the relative folded side plate p2, be formed with recess p4a, the p5b of reservation shape respectively according to the article that keep by insulating element P.

Folded side plate p2 with insulating element P of said structure is erected into the height H 1 of approximate vertical state, interior height (height above bottom 1 above long side dyke 1a) the H2 height of the long side dyke 1a that the height of bottom 1 is low when being installed in the Foldable container C of assembling boxlike-forming than insulating element P.

Fig. 1 and Fig. 4～embodiment shown in Figure 7 represents is the example that keeps the bearing circle S of automobile etc.In order to keep the bottom s1 of bearing circle S, be formed with on the central spacing block p4 can direction of insertion dish S bottom s1 above and about open recess p4a, and, in order to keep the sidepiece s2 of bearing circle S, be formed with top and the open recess p5b of central spacing block p4 one side of sidepiece s2 that can direction of insertion dish S on the sidepiece spacing block p5.

After will having the Foldable container C assembling boxlike-forming of said structure, the insulating element P that will have said structure in the following manner is configured in the Foldable container C of assembling boxlike-forming, this mode is to make folded side plate p2 vertical with horizontal plate p1, one side of the long sidewall 2 that fell earlier when making folded side plate p2 be located at the operation of Foldable container C of folding assembling boxlike-forming simultaneously. then, keep bearing circle S like this: its bottom s1 is inserted among the recess p4a of central spacing block p4, the sidepiece s2 of bearing circle S is inserted among the recess p5b of sidepiece spacing block p5 as an example of article.Like this, the bearing circle S that keeps predetermined quantity by the insulating element P among the Foldable container C that is configured in assembling boxlike-forming.

To accommodate the Foldable container C conveyance that maintains as described above as the insulating element P of the bearing circle S of an example of article behind predetermined conveyance place, removing direction dish S from Foldable container C.Then, after whole bearing circle S is taken out, fold the Foldable container C of assembling boxlike-forming as described above.In the present embodiment, the long sidewall 2 though when folding operation, at first fell, but because insulating element P disposes to allow to being positioned at the long sidewall 2 one side formulas of falling earlier by the connecting portion p3 folded side plate p2 folding with respect to horizontal plate p1, simultaneously folded side plate p2 is at interior height (1 upper surface is to the height of the upper surface of long side dyke 1a from the bottom) the H2 height that is erected into height H 1 under the state of the approximate vertical long side dyke 1a lower than the height of bottom 1, and because by the long sidewall 2 that fell to bottom 1 direction, folded side plate p2 also topples over to the direction of horizontal plate p1, therefore needn't from the Foldable container C of assembling boxlike-forming, take out insulating element P, as long as simply by the long sidewall 2 that fell to the direction of bottom 1, also can fold insulating element P, therefore the operation that has not only improved folding Foldable container C, and the place that need not accommodate insulating element P.In addition, the height H 3 of the insulating element P that has folded forms the interior height (1 upper surface is to the height of the upper surface of long side dyke 1a from the bottom) of the low long side dyke 1a of the height of bottom 1 below the H2.

And, as described above, form dip plane p5a by lower corners in the central spacing block p4 side of the side of insulating element P spacing block p5, when folded side plate p2 swings to the direction of horizontal plate p1 as Figure 6 and Figure 7, owing to can reduce the height H 3 of the insulating element P that has folded, therefore the height of the low long side dyke 1a of the short brink dyke 1b of bottom 1 of aspect ratio Foldable container C can be reduced, the height of the Foldable container C of the height of Foldable container C of assembling boxlike-forming and folded state can be reduced.Therefore, can reduce the receiving space of the Foldable container C of the Foldable container C that accommodates assembling boxlike-forming and folded state.

Fig. 8 represents other embodiment of insulating element P.The insulating element P of this embodiment is for keeping the member of bottle B, on the two side walls of central spacing block p4, be formed with extend longitudinally, have and the recess p4b of the radius of curvature that the radius of curvature of trunk b1 of bottle B is roughly the same, and, also be formed with the recess p5c that has with the roughly the same radius of curvature of the radius of curvature of this trunk b1 of bottle B on the wall of the central spacing block p4 side of sidepiece spacing block p5, this recess p5c is relative with the recess p4b that above-mentioned central spacing block p4 goes up formation.Therefore the method for folding of Foldable container C after such insulating element P being configured to the method among the Foldable container C of assembling boxlike-forming and discharging bottle B omits its detailed description because same as the previously described embodiments.

Fig. 9 and embodiment shown in Figure 10 separate regulation on the internal face 1b1 of the relative short brink dyke 1b of bottom 1 interval is provided with a pair of prominent bar barrier rib 1b2 highlightedly.The height H 3 of insulating element P after top 1b2 ' ratio of barrier rib 1b2 is folding is some high.When the operation of the Foldable container C of folding assembling boxlike-forming, the long sidewall 2 that fell at first is connected on the top 1b2 ' of this barrier rib 1b2, the long sidewall 2 that fell not with fold after insulating element P collide mutually.By adopting such structure, when the operation of the Foldable container C that folds assembling boxlike-forming, fierce collision does not take place with long sidewall 2 in insulating element P, can not damage insulating element P or long sidewall 2.

And, though as mentioned above when the Foldable container C of folding assembling boxlike-forming, earlier a pair of relative long sidewall 2 is put upside down to the direction of bottom 1, but reach as shown in Figure 10 as Fig. 7, on the outside wall surface 2a of long sidewall 2 (when being formed with vertical rib 2b and horizontal ribs 2c on the outside wall surface 2a, comprising the imaginary outside wall surface that the top by vertical rib 2b or horizontal ribs 2c forms), be formed with the recess area 2d that the Width at the whole predetermined long sidewall 2 in height upper edge extends.Not only on long sidewall 2, form such recess area 2d, and the inboard bight 2e in top that is positioned at the long sidewall 2 of top carries on the recess area 2d that forms on the outside wall surface 2a that is positioned at following long sidewall 2, therefore can reduce the long sidewall 2 that is positioned at the top be positioned at following long sidewall 2 overlap height (be positioned at bight 2f outside the top of long sidewall 2 of top and be positioned at the height of vertical direction of inboard, top bight 2e of the long sidewall 2 of bottom), therefore, can further reduce the height of the Foldable container C of folded state.

Be positioned at long sidewall 2 one sides of falling at first owing to be configured in the folded side plate p2 of the interior insulating element P of the Foldable container C of assembling boxlike-forming as described above from the state of assembling boxlike-forming, therefore insulating element P can not become the obstacle to the rotation of the bottom of the long sidewall 2 that fell at first 1 direction, therefore from the Foldable container C of assembling boxlike-forming, do not take out insulating element P, just can fold the Foldable container C of assembling boxlike-forming.

When the Foldable container C of folding assembling boxlike-forming, owing to be provided with the barrier rib 1b2 of 2 butts of long sidewall that fell at first on the internal face 1b1 of the short brink dyke 1b of the bottom 1 of the short sidewall 3 that after hinge is connected with, fell highlightedly, so that the long sidewall 2 that fell at first not with folding after insulating element P connect, isolate member P during the operation of the Foldable container C that therefore can prevent and collide mutually with long sidewall 2 and damage insulating element P or long sidewall 2 at folding assembling boxlike-forming.

Therefore the present invention has produced following effect owing to have formation described above.

Because it is logical being configured in the folded side plate of the interior insulating element of the Foldable container of assembling boxlike-forming Cross and fell sidewall and therefore folded structure, does not need the Foldable container from assembling boxlike-forming Middle taking-up insulating element becomes the Foldable container of box-shaped with regard to foldable assembling.

Because being configured in the folded side plate of the interior insulating element of the Foldable container of assembling boxlike-forming is positioned at Therefore the side wall side of falling earlier from the state of assembling boxlike-forming, does not need from assembling boxlike-forming Foldable container takes out insulating element becomes box-shaped with regard to foldable assembling Foldable container.

Because for the sidewall that falls down at first from the state that is assembled into box is not contacted with the insulating element that has folded, and the barrier rib that sidewall contacted that will fall down is at first given prominence on the internal face of the bottom that is arranged on the sidewall that falls down after the hinge binding, therefore, when forming into the folding operation of box-type Foldable container, can prevent that insulating element and the sidewall that falls down at first from colliding, thereby prevent that insulating element or the sidewall that falls down at first from sustaining damage.
