Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a packaging technique for protecting a lighting fixture such as a ceiling light.
[0002]
[Prior art]
When packaging a circular or polygonal lighting fixture such as a ceiling light, as shown in FIG. 8, the peripheral edge of the base 51 made of corrugated cardboard sheets is folded to hold the lighting fixture L, and the outer periphery of the lighting fixture L Are enclosed in a rectangular outer box 53 in a state of being surrounded by a belt-like corrugated cardboard frame 52 to protect the luminaire L from impacts and loads during loading.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, when packaging as described above, the lighting fixture must be carried in a state of being stored in the outer box, and the outer box must be disposed after unpacking.
[0004]
Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to efficiently package a lighting fixture while ensuring buffering properties, eliminating waste of resources.
[0005]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention is a packaging method for a lighting fixture in which the lighting fixture is held by a buffer base and a handle is provided on the base, and is folded around the outer periphery of the base plate hollowed out. A base is formed by providing a piece and providing a winding member on the inner periphery by cutting from the inside of the base plate. The buffer body is formed by winding the holding member and the winding member on the side opposite to the folded piece .
[0006]
By packaging in this way, the lighting equipment can be taken home from the store without being stored in the outer box, so there is no need to dispose of the outer box at home.
[0007]
Further, when the lighting fixture is shrink-wrapped together with the base, the lighting fixture and the base are firmly fixed, and the surface of the lighting fixture is also protected.
[0008]
In addition, when the lighting fixtures are delivered from the factory to the store, if they are packed and stored in the outer box as described above, damage in the distribution process is prevented, and the outer box is returned from the store to the factory for reuse. it can.
[0009]
Furthermore, when the corner portion of the outer box is folded, the lighting apparatus is surely protected from the load and impact when stacked.
[0010]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the packaging in which the circular lighting fixture L is shrink-wrapped together with the base 1 and is stored in the outer box 2 will be described.
[0011]
FIG. 3 shows the cardboard blank of the base 1 used for this packaging. In this blank, the inside of the octagonal base plate 11 is hollowed out, and the folded pieces 12 are connected to the outer periphery thereof, and four winding members 13 are connected to the inner periphery. Further, the base plate 11 is provided with a handle 14 and a holding hole 15 into which a mounting part to the ceiling is fitted.
[0012]
In order to hold the luminaire L with this blank, as shown in FIG. 4, the luminaire L is placed on the base plate 11, the folded piece 12 is folded back, and the tip of the folded piece 12 as shown in FIG. To hold the flange of the lighting fixture L. Thereby, the luminaire L is positioned with respect to the base plate 11.
[0013]
Then, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the winding member 13 is wound to form a buffer on the back surface of the base plate 11, and the base 1 and the lighting fixture L are wrapped and integrated with the shrink film 16. As shown in FIG. 1, a hole corresponding to the handle 14 is provided in the shrink film 16.
[0014]
When shrink-wrapping in this way, it can be displayed at the store as it is, and if the purchaser wishes, the handle 14 can be gripped and the lighting fixture L can be taken home from the store without storing it in the outer box. This eliminates the need to dispose of the outer box.
[0015]
Further, when the lighting fixture L is delivered from the factory to the store, or when a purchaser at the store desires strict packaging, the lighting fixture L is put in the outer box 2 in the shrink-wrapped state as described above. Store in.
[0016]
The outer box 2 is made of a corrugated cardboard blank shown in FIG. 7. As shown in FIG. 1, the octagonal flat plate 21 is opposed to each other, its side edges are side plates 22, and the square edges are square plates 23 and folding pieces 24. The bent plate 25 is connected to the end edge of the square plate 23, and the lid plate 26 is connected to the both end edges of the flat plate 21.
[0017]
And the lighting fixture L shrink-wrapped as described above is accommodated in such an outer box 2, and as shown in FIG. 2, the folded piece 24 is folded, the folded piece 25 is folded inward, and the cover plate 26 is Since the space | interval of the plane plate 21 which opposes will be maintained if it closes, the lighting fixture L will be reliably protected from the load and impact at the time of flat stacking.
[0018]
In addition, when the purchaser takes home the lighting fixture L in the state of shrink wrapping without using the outer box 2, the outer box 2 remains in the dealer, so the outer box 2 is returned from the dealer to the factory. Can be reused.
[0019]
By the way, in the said embodiment, although the example which integrates the lighting fixture L and the base 1 by shrink-wrapping was shown, you may fix using fasteners, such as a plastic screw, without shrink-wrapping these. .
[0020]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, in the present invention, since the lighting fixture is held by the buffer base and the handle is provided on the base, the lighting fixture can be taken home from the store without being stored in the outer box. This eliminates the need to dismantle the outer box at home and take it out for collection.
[0021]
Further, when the lighting fixture is shrink-wrapped together with the base, the lighting fixture and the base are firmly fixed, and the surface of the lighting fixture is also protected.
[0022]
In addition, when the lighting fixtures are delivered from the factory to the store, if they are packed and stored in the outer box as described above, damage in the distribution process is prevented, and the outer box is returned from the store to the factory for reuse. Since it can do, the consumption of a packaging material can be suppressed.
[0023]
Furthermore, when the corner portion of the outer box is folded, the lighting apparatus is surely protected from the load and impact when stacked.
