A paper storage device 10 for a refrigerator is made of paper that is water resistant and strong and is foldable, and includes a storage section 12 that can store vegetables.

Examples of the vegetables to be stored include cucumbers, carrots, spinach, corn, tomatoes, cut radish, potatoes, onions, pumpkins, cabbage, and Chinese cabbage, but of course other vegetables may be used.

Moreover, although the description will be made assuming that vegetables are stored in the storage section 12, foods other than vegetables, for example, fruits such as apples, pears, watermelons, and melons may be used.

The storage section 12 has a box-like shape including a bottom surface 12a and side surfaces 12b, 12c, 12d, and 12e standing upright on the bottom surface 12a, and when assembled and erected, the storage section 12 is inserted into the interior from the ceiling section 12f. A spatial region is formed for storing vegetables.

The storage section 12 has a substantially rectangular prism shape in which vegetables can be stored, and the size can be freely set. For example, we will explain that the storage section 12 has four sizes, S, M, L, and LL, in order to store a variety of vegetables, but of course, you can increase or decrease the size. good.

For example, if the volume of S size is the basic unit, the volume of M size is set to be twice that of S size (S x 2), and the volume of L size is set to be four times that of S size (S x 4). = M x 2), and the volume of the LL size can be set to eight times the S size (S x 8 = M x 4 = L x 2).

In the example of the above four sizes, for example, the S size is a size suitable for storing cucumbers, carrots, spinach, etc., and the M size is a size suitable for storing, for example, corn, tomatoes, cut radish, etc. It is.

Further, the L size is a size suitable for storing, for example, potatoes, onions, apples, etc., and the LL size is a size suitable for storing, for example, pumpkins, cabbages, Chinese cabbage, etc.

As mentioned above, when four sizes are prepared, the height of each size is the same, and the volume can be changed by changing the base area, but of course, the four sizes can be realized by changing the height. Good too.

Further, the storage portion 12 has cutting scales (for example, set at intervals of 1 cm) for changing the height on the side surfaces 12b, 12c, 12d, and 12e. Thereby, the height can be changed by cutting along the scale to obtain the desired height.

Furthermore, the storage section 12 is made by cutting the four corners (corners) of the ceiling section 12f along the fold lines and folding them inward or outward of the storage section to double the thickness and strengthen the strength of the ceiling section 12f. I can do it.

For example, aqua coated paper with a weight of 325 g/m ² and a thickness of 406 μm has a wet tear strength (vertical) of 3923 mN, a wet tear strength (horizontal) of 4168 mN, a vertical tear strength of 4217 mN, and a tear strength of 4217 mN. The strength (horizontal) is 4658 mN. Also, Taber stiffness (vertical) is 190gf. cm, and the Taber stiffness (horizontal) is 90gf. cm, stiffness (vertical) is 18.6 mN, stiffness (horizontal) is 8.8 mN, and whiteness is 79.5.

Aqua coated paper with a weight of 360 g/m ² and a thickness of 455 μm has a wet tear strength (vertical) of 4413 mN, a wet tear strength (horizontal) of 4805 mN, and a tear strength (vertical) of 4805 mN. The strength (horizontal) is 5247 mN. Also, the Taber stiffness (vertical) is 250gf. cm, and the Taber stiffness (width) is 130gf. cm, stiffness (vertical) is 24.5 mN, stiffness (horizontal) is 12.7 mN, and whiteness is 79.5.

As the aqua coat paper, it is preferable to use, for example, Aqua Coat manufactured by Graphic Packaging International Inc. of Georgia, USA, but of course other aqua coats can be used.

Aqua coated paper not only has excellent tear strength as mentioned above, but also has excellent water and oil resistance, and is used, for example, in packaging for beverages, packaging for dairy products, packaging for food, packaging for fruit, and marine products. Used for consumer packaging, gift packaging, etc.
