Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to an article storage case for organizing and storing small discs such as compact discs (CDs), video tapes, paperback books, comic books, clothing, miscellaneous goods, and the like. It is provided so that articles can be easily taken in and out, and each case body and lid plate are prevented from bending when the case is stacked in a plurality of stages.
[0002]
[Prior art]
A conventional article storage case is generally composed of a case main body formed of a flat-bottomed, substantially rectangular parallelepiped box having an open upper surface, and a flat lid that closes the upper surface opening of the case main body. In many cases, desired accessories are arranged and stored in the case body, the lid is closed, and then stacked and stored in a plurality of stages.
[0003]
Therefore, when taking out necessary accessories, etc., lower each of the stacked storage cases once stacked, select the storage case containing the necessary accessories from among them, open the lid, and remove the desired accessories. I had to take it out. Moreover, even when not stacked, even when placed on a narrow space such as under a bed or on a shelf, the lid had to be opened once and then opened. These operations are particularly difficult for women and children, and improvements are desired.
[0004]
In order to deal with such a problem, for example, in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 6-65224 and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 9-295638, an opening for inserting and removing articles is provided on the side of the storage case, and a door that can be opened and closed is provided there. A provided storage case has been proposed.
[0005]
For example, in the former, an outlet is provided on the short side wall of the storage case body, and a door that can be opened and closed is provided here. Similarly, the latter has a configuration in which an opening is formed on the peripheral surface of the container and an opening / closing lid is provided there.
[0006]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, these conventional storage cases can be provided only on the short side of the substantially rectangular parallelepiped storage case, considering the storage location and strength when stacked, so that they are located on the far side opposite the door. It was very difficult to check and take out the stored small items.
[0007]
Further, among the conventional article storage cases, especially the synthetic resin storage cases obtained by integral molding need to be provided with a small inclination (draft angle) that opens outward on each side wall surface due to restrictions on resin molding. Therefore, when the case is stacked in a plurality of stages and a large force is applied in the vertical direction, there remains a problem that the upper edge of the side plate of each case body bulges outward and the side plate and the cover plate bend.
[0008]
Furthermore, considering the case where standardized rectangular objects such as videotapes and CDs are stored, the conventional storage case has a flat bottom plate. There was also a problem that it was difficult to take out a tape or the like.
[0009]
From such a point of view, the present invention makes it easy to check and take out stored articles even when stacked in a plurality of stages in this type of article storage case, and prevents the case body and lid from bending. A storage case is provided.
[0010]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to solve the above-described problems, the present invention provides an article storage case in which the upper surface of a substantially rectangular parallelepiped case body is opened to form an opening, and the opening is closed with a cover plate. The upper edge is opened, and a plurality of doors can be opened and closed by sandwiching a column on one side of the column so that it functions as a side plate. At the top of each column between the doors and the opposite side plate A means for fitting and mounting a support plate having a fitting claw to be fitted to the fitting portion at both ends was adopted in the fitting portion.
[0011]
With this configuration, the lid plate can be opened and the articles can be taken in and out as usual, and the doors of the side plates can be opened and the articles can be taken in and out. At this time, even if the storage cases are stacked in a plurality of stages, the doors of the storage cases at any stage can be opened and closed. Moreover, if at least one door is exposed, articles can be taken in and out, and there is no need to pull out and load the entire case.
[0012]
Furthermore, since a support plate is installed between the support column and the side plate, the side plate bulges outward by the support plate even when a large load is applied in the vertical direction to the side plate provided with a so-called draft for molding. To regulate.
[0013]
Further, in the article storage case, locking protrusions are provided on the left and right edge edges of the door that can be freely opened and closed via the hinge portion on the lower end side, and correspond to the locking protrusions on the side plate of the case body or the column. A locking projection is provided at each position, and a means is adopted in which these are configured to function as side plates when they are engaged with each other and the door is closed.
[0014]
When the cover plate is removed and the door is opened, the upper and side surfaces of the storage case are opened, and it is very easy to put in and out articles. In addition, even with the cover plate removed, the door is closed and fixed via each locking projection so that the door functions as a side plate, and only the top surface can be used as a storage case. This is intended for convenience of storage work.
[0015]
Also, the provision of the ribs to the column outside of the bottom plate, the rib of the partition plate serves to form between the strut and which is opposed to the side plate, also provided with hanging the partition portion on the lower surface of the support plate Adopted means.
[0016]
These ribs or the like form a frame having a B-shape when viewed from the side, and reliably prevent deformation of the portion such as bulging of the side plate and bending of the cover plate. Therefore, it can be stacked in multiple stages.
[0017]
Further, in the article storage case, means for providing a bottom raised portion on the bottom plate of the case main body and forming a concave groove portion along the side plate is also employed.
[0018]
For example, when a CD case or the like is stored by this concave groove portion, when the front upper end of the case is pushed downward, the CD case lower end is recessed into the concave groove portion, the CD case is inclined, and a part of the side surface is exposed. It is possible to pick up with the fingertip, and it is very easy to put in and out even when the article is stored densely.
[0019]

It is a lid plate closed from above. In this case body 1, 4 and 4 are doors provided on one of the long side plates of the case body 1, and are provided on the left and right sides with a central support column 5 interposed therebetween. The support 5 is provided with ribs 5a in the vertical direction to prevent the bending due to the vertical force.
[0022]
The left and right doors 4 are provided in the case main body 1 so as to be freely opened and closed via a hinge portion 6 on the lower end side, and function as a side plate of the case main body 1 when closed. That is, a locking projection 4a is provided at the upper end of each door 4, and the door 4 is inadvertently opened by engaging with the locking projection 3a provided at a corresponding position on the lower surface of the cover plate 3. It is preventing. Further, locking protrusions 4b are also provided at the left and right edge of each door 4, and are provided at the corresponding positions of the locking protrusions 1a provided at the corresponding positions on the side plate of the case body 1 or the support columns 5. The doors 4 are prevented from opening by engaging with the locking projections 5b. This is to make each door 4 function as a side plate so that the door 4 does not open even when the lid plate 3 is removed and the engagement projection 4a at the upper end is disengaged.
[0023]
Further, the bottom plate 7 of the case body 1 is provided with a wide bottom raised portion 7a at the center in the longitudinal direction so that a concave groove portion 7b is formed along the front and rear side plates 8. Further, ribs 9 serving as partition plates are formed between the support columns 5 of the bottom plate 7 and the side plates 8 opposed thereto.
[0024]
Next, the support plate 2 includes a support bar portion 2a having a plurality of ribs 2b in the length direction and a flat partition portion 2c provided to hang from the lower surface thereof. Provided. Then, through this fitting claw 2d, it is fitted and installed in the engaging portions 10 and 10 provided at the upper ends of the support column 5 and the opposite side plate 8, respectively, and the letter B in the side view along with the support column 5 and the rib 9 of the bottom plate. The frame is formed so that bending does not occur in this portion.

Further, when the long side is relatively short, one door is provided, and when the long side is longer than the short side, the long side is divided into three or more to provide a plurality of doors. You may do it. In this case, a support plate is constructed for each column.
[0028]
The article storage case having the above-described configuration is for storing and storing CDs in a jewel case, for example. In addition to opening the upper cover plate 3 as usual, the CD case can be taken in and out, and the door of the side plate with the cover plate 3 closed. It is also possible to open and remove the CD from the side with 4 open. In particular, even when stacked in a plurality of stages, the door of the storage case at a desired stage can be opened and closed, and the labor of lowering the door to a wide area as in the prior art can be omitted. In addition, since all the stored items can be listed by opening all the doors, there is no inconvenience that the back CD cannot be taken out as in the prior art.
[0029]
Further, even when the device is installed in the longitudinal direction using a slight gap, it is not necessary to pull out the entire case because the door can be opened and the CD can be taken out by pulling out as much as one door can be seen.
[0030]
Further, for example, when there is no gap for inserting the CD case into the storage case and inserting a finger, as shown in FIG. 3, the bottom plate 7 has a concave groove 7b, so the upper end of the CD case (P) is When the fingertip is pulled in the lower front direction, the lower end of the CD case is inserted into the concave groove 7b and the CD case can be tilted obliquely (see the dashed line in FIG. 3). It is possible to take out only one CD by partially exposing and pinching the part.
[0031]
On the other hand, even when the storage cases are stacked in a plurality of stages and a large load is applied in the vertical direction, the rib 5a provided on the column 5 and the column 5, the rib 9 of the bottom plate, the side plate 8 and the column 5 Since the portion is firmly reinforced by a square-shaped frame structure formed by the support plate 2 or the like installed on the side plate, it does not bend outward even if there is a draft in the side plate, and is stable. Stacking can be realized.
[0032]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, the article storage case according to the present invention is provided with a door that can be opened and closed with the cover plate closed on the case side plate. Even if they are stacked, it is now possible to open and close the storage case door at any stage and put in and out the goods. This eliminates the hassle of pulling out and loading the entire case.
[0033]
Furthermore, since a support plate is installed between the support column and the side plate, the side plate bulges outward by the support plate even when a large load is applied in the vertical direction to the side plate provided with a so-called draft for molding. The side plate and lid plate could be prevented from bending even when stacked in multiple stages.
[0034]
In addition, since the left and right edges of the door and the side plate or support column of the case body are provided with locking projections so that they are engaged with each other, when the cover plate is removed and the door is opened, the storage case The top and side surfaces are open, making it very easy to put in and out the goods, and it is also possible to close the door and make it function as a side plate. We were able to plan.
[0035]
In addition, a partition plate rib is formed between the bottom plate column and the opposite side plate, and the partition portion is provided on the lower surface of the support plate. A frame is formed, which can reliably prevent deformation of the part such as side plate swelling and lid plate bending, and can be stably stacked even when the storage cases are stacked in multiple stages. It became easy to put in and out.
[0036]
Further, since the bottom plate of the case body is provided with a bottom raised portion and a concave groove portion is formed along the side plate, for example, when a CD case or the like is stored by this concave groove portion, when the front upper end of the case is pushed downward, the CD The lower end of the case is recessed into the concave groove, and the CD case is tilted.
