DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an improvement in a pedestal for packing and supporting gas appliances, electric appliances and the like when they are packed.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In general, when packing equipment to be packed such as electric equipment and gas equipment, the equipment must be kept from moving inside a cardboard box and subjected to impact due to dropping or vibration.
For the purpose of protection from external impacts and the like, various types of cushioning materials are stored in a cardboard box to protect the equipment during transportation and storage. In the case of a relatively heavy device to be packed, a method is generally adopted in which the device body is supported and mounted on a pedestal, another cushioning material is provided on the upper part, and a cardboard box is placed over the device.

[0003] As a conventional packing pedestal, a packing pedestal having a structure in which a foamed plastic such as styrene foam molded in an appropriate shape is arranged inside a corrugated cardboard box having an open top is widely used. Foamed plastic is a material having an excellent cushioning function for protecting equipment, and can be easily molded in accordance with the shape of various equipment, and has an advantage that storage efficiency in packaging materials can be increased.

[0004]

However, although foamed plastics have very excellent properties themselves, they have various problems in terms of processing after recently used as cushioning materials for packing. For example, the collection route has not been developed and is disposed of as household waste, which is a major social problem. Accompanying this, handling is troublesome at the time of collection, and the collection cost increases. In addition, incineration disposal requires high-energy, so incinerator maintenance is required.

In addition, the pedestal made of foamed plastic has a drawback that it is extremely bulky, has low transportation efficiency, increases transportation costs, and requires a large space for storage space. For this reason, in this industry, as a substitute for foamed plastic, there has been a wide demand for a cardboard packaging pedestal that is easy to process and easy to assemble, as well as having a cushioning function.

[0006]

In view of the above problems, the present inventor has accomplished the present invention as a result of intensive studies. The feature of the present invention is that the equipment to be packed is supported and mounted. Two support members and a device for arranging and fixing each support member on both sides. The bottom plate is provided on each side of the outer plate, the width plate, and the surface adjacent to the top plate of the support member of the packaged device. An inner surface of at least a part of the inner contact plate at a position facing the top plate and surrounding the top plate in a corrugated cardboard pedestal constituted by a tray in which an inner contact plate to be contacted is sequentially extended. A support piece is provided on the side, which is substantially perpendicular to the inscribed plate and linearly engages a part of the support member.

[0007] The term "supporting member" as used herein means a member made of corrugated cardboard for supporting and mounting the device to be packed. The equipment to be packed includes not only devices such as the above-described electric equipment and gas equipment, but also these components and various materials. In the present invention, this support member is
The device to be packaged is placed on them by using one. For this reason, all the weight of the device to be packaged is applied to the support member, and it is necessary to form the cardboard material with a high strength. The strength is increased by vertically contacting the equipment to be packed. Therefore, the structure of the supporting member may be any structure as long as at least a part of the cardboard material is arranged to be perpendicular to the device to be packed. A structure formed by combining a plurality of structures may be used.

[0008] The term "tray" refers to a tray provided with an inner contact plate which is arranged and fixed on both sides and which comes into contact with a surface adjacent to the supporting member of the apparatus to be packed. This tray has a structure in which an outer plate, a width plate, and an inner contact plate are sequentially extended from each side of a bottom plate, and a hook piece extending from a tip of a part of the inner contact plate is attached to a top of each support member. Engage and fix the plate. Usually, the bottom surface of the packaged device is placed in contact with the top plate of each support member, and the four surrounding surfaces of the packaged device are contacted with and supported by the inner contact plate of the tray.

The "supporting piece" is provided on at least a part of the inner surface of the inner plate of the tray which faces the top plate of the support member and is arranged at a position surrounding the top plate. A member that faces the plate at a substantially right angle and continuously engages with a part of the support member located below the plate. In other words, by providing this support plate on the inner surface side of the inner contact plate at the position of the top plate of the support member facing the portion on which the device to be packed is to be placed, it is possible to increase the strength of the portion contacting the device to be packed. Things. To be provided on at least a part of the inner surface side means that only one support piece may be provided at one place in the entire packaging pedestal according to the present invention. In other words, the basic structure of the packing pedestal according to the present invention is composed of two support members and a tray for arranging and fixing these members on both sides. This is because the support piece referred to in the present invention may be provided in a part of the periphery of another support member.

[0010] The portion of the tray which comes into contact with the device to be packed has a certain degree of strength due to a locking piece which is engaged with a top plate of a support member extending at the end of the width plate or the inner contact plate.
If the length of the width plate (the distance between the inner plate and the outer plate) is long or if no hook is provided, the strength is reduced and the structure does not function as a cushioning material. In addition, even if it has strength, if it easily deforms in which the angle of the width plate changes with respect to the inner and outer plates, it will not function as a cushioning material. This is an important problem particularly in a buffer structure formed of a plate-like member such as a corrugated cardboard material. Therefore, by providing the support piece in the above-described state and engaging the support piece with a part of the support member in order to maintain the state, it is possible to maintain a high state of the part in contact with the packaged device. .

The support piece is formed by using at least a part of the folded piece extending from both sides of each outer plate at one opposing position of the tray. The folded piece is usually provided on the inner surface side of the other opposing position and is provided to hold the form when assembled in a tray shape, and by bending this almost at a right angle, the tip end surface is inscribed plate. Substantially perpendicularly to the inner surface side. Then, the bent portion is engaged with a part of the support member to be held in a bent state. In this case, it also has a function of fixing the support member. Further, the support piece may be formed by projecting a part of the member constituting the support member from the top plate. This means that, among the parts constituting the box of the support member, a part of the member that is interposed substantially vertically between the top plate and the bottom plate of the tray is projected from a hole or notch formed in the top plate. It is formed by:

[0012] The support piece is formed by forming the surface facing the inner surface side of the inner contact plate into a taper having a shorter upper end, and by making the inner contact plate an inclined surface having a wider upper end corresponding thereto, the packaged device can be manufactured. The pedestal according to the present invention may be easily loaded. With such a structure, work efficiency at the time of packing is improved, and it is extremely effective when a handling device or the like is used.
