2. Description of the Related Art In a conventional packing tool for packing an object to be packed, for example, a quartz tube, the packing tool is a corrugated cardboard box made of paper, for example. To prevent the quartz tube from being damaged, the cardboard box is covered with a protective member such as a sponge material made of urethane to cover the quartz tube. In such a case, the quartz tube is protected and held, and a fixture for closing the opening of the corrugated cardboard box, such as gum tape, is used for adhesion and closing and packing.

[0003]

However, before or after packing the object to be packed, for example, a quartz tube, the packing tool, for example, a cardboard box, cannot be folded within the area of one exterior surface, Since it is folded within the area of six exterior surfaces, there is a problem that the accommodation space for accommodating the packing device becomes large. Further, if the cardboard box is packed with a fixture, for example, a piece of gum tape, the cardboard box is damaged when opened and cannot be reused. In addition, since the protective member for protecting the packaged object in the package, for example, the quartz tube, for example, the sponge made of urethane is used, the storage space for accommodating the protective member becomes large after opening, and it is clean. There is a problem in that it cannot be reused after packaging of the packaged object, which requires a certain amount of time. Also, the packaged object in the packaging,
For example, since a protective member that protects the quartz tube, for example, a sponge made of urethane, was used, dust or dirt adheres to the quartz tube due to the electrostatic action of the protective member after opening, so that cleanliness should be maintained. There was a problem that I could not do it.

An object of the present invention is to provide a packing tool for packing an object to be packed in a small space by removing air from the airbag of the packing tool before or after opening the packing object. (EN) Provided is an airbag packaging tool that is both reusable and reusable.

A circular through hole 10 penetrating the outer surface 3 is formed, and the through surface of the through hole 10 and a ring-shaped member, for example, the outer circumference of a ring 11 made of vinyl chloride are formed in the through hole 10. The parts are connected in an airtight manner, and air can be injected or released into the hollow part 13 of the airbag 7 via the ring 11.

Further, this ring 11 has this ring 11
The airbag packaging tool 1 is configured as described above, provided with a sealing body for hermetically sealing the opening 12 of the device, for example, a plug 14 made of vinyl chloride.

Next, a description will be given of the packing action of the objects to be packed in the airbag packing tool 1 configured as described above. As shown in FIG. 4, an object to be packed, for example, a quartz tube 15 having a hollow structure made of quartz is housed inside the airbag packing device 1, and air inlets / outlets 8 provided on the outer surface 3 respectively.
Air is injected into the air bags 7 provided inside the outer surface 3 by an air supply means (not shown), such as an air cylinder, through
The expandable film 9 of the airbag 7 is inflated to expand the quartz tube 15
The surface of the air bag is pressed and held so as to float inside the air bag packaging tool 1, and the air inlet / outlet 8 is hermetically sealed by the plug 14.

As a procedure for injecting air into the air bag 7, first, the side direction of the quartz tube 15 is 4
The same amount of air is simultaneously injected into the air bags 7 provided on the four outer shell surfaces 3 by the air cylinders, and the air bags 7 provided on the four outer shell surfaces 3 are provided at the same time.

As shown in [a], the outer peripheral surface of the packaged body 15 having a hollow structure is pressed and held by the stretch film 9 of the airbag 7 provided inside the four outer surface 3 in the outer peripheral direction. An expandable and retractable bag, for example, an airbag 20 made of rubber, is housed inside the hollow packaged body 15. The airbag 20 is provided in the airbag 20. An air inlet / outlet 21 is provided for injecting or releasing air. Furthermore, when packing the packaged body 15 having the hollow structure, an air supply means (not shown), such as an air cylinder, is used to insert the air into the air bag 20 provided inside the outer surface 3 via the air inlet / outlet 21. While injecting air,

As shown in [b], the airbag 20 is inflated to press the inner surface of the quartz tube 15, and the air inlet / outlet 21 is hermetically sealed by a plug 14 not shown. From the above,
Since the packaged body 15 having the hollow structure is pressed and held from both the outer surface and the inner surface, more stable packaging is possible.

Next, the third embodiment will be described. The same parts as those of the first embodiment are designated by the same reference numerals and the description thereof will be omitted. As shown in FIG. 8, an elastic film, for example, a quadrangular film 9 made of rubber is used as a hollow in which the peripheral edges of a square film 9 made of rubber are airtightly joined to the entire inner peripheral edge of the external surface 3, as shown in FIG. An air bag 7 having a structure is formed, and two air bags 7 are provided on one outer surface 3. Further, each air bag 7 is provided with an air inlet / outlet 8 (not shown) for injecting or releasing air into the air bag 7 on the outer surface 3 respectively. By providing the two air bags 7 on the one outer surface 3, even if one air bag 7 is damaged, the other air bag 7 can press and hold the object to be packed. The body can be safely packed.

It is needless to say that the airbag provided inside the outer surface may have a plurality of airbags on one outer surface, and the present invention is limited to such an embodiment. Instead, various modifications can be made within the scope of the present invention.

[0019]

The present invention provides a packing tool for packing an object to be packed by deflating the air in the airbag of the packing tool before or after unpacking the packing object by the packing tool. While reducing the volume of packing equipment,
Since it can be folded within the area of one exterior surface of the packing tool, there is a remarkable effect that it can be efficiently stored in a small space and can be reused.
