BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
(i) Field of the Invention
[0001] The present invention relates to a packing body carrier and a packing body.
(ii) Description of Related Art
[0002] In general, in order to reduce a shock in a case of transporting a product, various
types of shock absorbing materials are used. The shock absorbing materials fill a
gap between the product and a packing material such that the product does not move
in the packing material which packs the product. In general, many of the shock absorbing
materials are disposable and are not reused in many cases. In order to reduce the
amount of disposable shock absorbing material, a shock absorbing member is provided
at a reusable pallet in some cases.
[0003] For example,
JP2007-69925A describes a packing device including a base portion that is a packing device body,
a receiving plate that is disposed to form a space above the base portion, and a shock
absorbing member that is provided to be interposed between the receiving plate and
the base portion.
[0004] For example,
JP2004-99150A describes a device consisting of a pallet for transporting an article, a shock absorbing
member that is placed on the pallet and that is for absorbing vibration, a shock,
or the like in a case of article transportation, cargo handling, storage, or the like,
and a board material that is disposed on the shock absorbing member and is for placing
the article thereon, in which a recessed portion to which at least the shock absorbing
member is fitted is provided in a pallet upper surface.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0005] In a case where a shock absorbing material that fills a gap between a packing body
and a packed body is not provided, a gap between a side surface of the packed body
and an inner surface of the packing body is generated. For example, in a case where
a force is applied to the packed body in a horizontal direction, the packed body is
tilted and locally collides with the inner surface of the packing body in some cases.
[0006] An object of the present invention is to suppress a local shock to the packed body.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0026] Hereinafter, an exemplary embodiment of the present invention will be described in
detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0027] Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing a state where a multifunction machine 100 is
packed using a packing body 1 to which the present exemplary embodiment is applied.
In Fig. 1, a box body 10 is shown by a broken line, and the multifunction machine
100 and a transportation pallet 20 are shown by solid lines. The transportation pallet
20 is an example of a packing body carrier.
[0028] As shown in Fig. 1, the multifunction machine 100 is covered with the box body 10
after placed on an upper surface of the transportation pallet 20. The multifunction
machine 100 is provided with casters 101 as legs for supporting the multifunction
machine 100, and the multifunction machine 100 is supported by the four casters 101.
[0029] The box body 10 includes a square tubular side surface portion 11 that protects side
surfaces of the multifunction machine 100 and a lid portion 12 that protects an upper
surface of the multifunction machine 100. The side surface portion 11 of the box body
10 is configured to have a square tubular shape, and a lower end portion and an upper
end portion thereof are open. In a case of packing the multifunction machine 100,
in a state where the multifunction machine 100 is placed on the transportation pallet
20, the multifunction machine 100 is passed from an opening of a lower portion of
the side surface portion 11 of the box body 10 to be wrapped up, and a lower end portion
of the box body 10 is brought into contact with the transportation pallet 20 to place
the box body 10.
[0030] An opening of the upper end portion of the side surface portion 11 of the box body
10 is closed by the lid portion 12, and the multifunction machine 100 is packed by
the box body 10. In the present exemplary embodiment, the box body 10 is formed of
so-called cardboard. The cardboard is obtained by pasting thick paper to both sides
of paper formed in a corrugated shape and is configured by a paper member. A material
for the box body 10 is not limited thereto and may be formed of, for example, a resin
material.
[0031] Next, the transportation pallet 20 will be described with reference to Figs. 2 and
3.
[0032] Fig. 2 is a perspective view for describing the transportation pallet 20 according
to the present exemplary embodiment. In addition, Fig. 3 is an exploded view for describing
the inside of the transportation pallet 20. Fig. 3 is shown with only one of two plates
30 removed, and also a place hidden by the other plate 30 has the same structure.
[0033] As shown in Fig. 2, the transportation pallet 20 includes a body portion 21 that
is a major structure of the transportation pallet 20, the plate 30 that receives a
load from the casters 101 of the multifunction machine 100, and a restricting member
50 that restricts a movement of the multifunction machine 100 in a horizontal direction.
The transportation pallet 20 of the present exemplary embodiment is formed of a resin
material. The plate 30 is an example of a load receiving member. In the present exemplary
embodiment, there is two plates 30, but the number of plates 30 is not limited, may
be one, or may be three or more.
[0034] As shown in Figs. 2 and 3, the body portion 21 includes a foot 22 that is a base
for supporting the transportation pallet 20, a contact unit 23 that positions the
box body 10, a fixing portion 24 that fixes the plate 30 to the transportation pallet
20, a shock absorbing member 25 that absorbs a shock to the multifunction machine
100, and an accommodating portion 26 that accommodates the shock absorbing member
25.
[0035] Four feet 22 are provided on a lower side of the body portion 21 and are provided
on four sides of the transportation pallet 20. In addition, a plurality of provided
feet 22 have a cavity through which a fork of a forklift passes.
[0036] The contact unit 23 that positions the box body 10 is a protrusion provided at each
of four corners of an upper surface of the body portion 21. The contact unit 23 is
configured in a shape in which a long side of a right-angled triangle is recessed
in a bow shape in a case of being viewed from a viewing direction in Fig. 2, that
is, the transportation pallet 20 is viewed from an upper side. In addition, four contact
units 23 are disposed such that a rectangular region formed by linking a right-angled
portion of each of the four contact units 23 is formed at a determined interval inside
an outer shape of the transportation pallet 20. In addition, the rectangular region
formed by linking the right-angled portion of each of the four contact units 23 corresponds
to a region of an opening of the lower end portion of the box body 10.
[0037] The fixing portion 24 that fixes the plate 30 to the transportation pallet 20 is
provided in a central region of the transportation pallet 20 in a lengthwise direction
of Fig. 3, drops by a thickness D of the plate 30 from the lower side from the upper
surface of the body portion 21, and forms a surface parallel to the upper surface
of the body portion 21. The parallel surface is configured in a rectangular shape.
[0038] The fixing portion 24 includes a protruding portion 28 that performs positioning
with the plate 30 and a screw fixing portion 29 for tightening a screw which fixes
the plate 30. The protruding portion 28 is, for example, a protrusion configured in
a cylindrical shape. The protruding portion 28 is provided at, for example, a central
region of the fixing portion 24 in the lengthwise direction of Fig. 3, and a plurality
of protruding portions 28, such as two, are arranged in a width direction. The screw
fixing portions 29 are screw holes and are provided in, for example, four corners
of the fixing portion 24 configured in a rectangular shape.
[0039] The shock absorbing member 25 is provided below the plate 30 and gently supports
the plate 30. The shock absorbing member 25 is made of, for example, a material having
shock absorbing properties, such as a foamed resin material and a rubber material,
and a plurality of (herein, two) shock absorbing members 25 are provided with respect
to one plate 30 via the fixing portion 24 in the present exemplary embodiment. The
shock absorbing member 25 has a substantially right-angled parallelepiped shape and
is configured to have, for example, the same thickness as the thickness of the fixing
portion 24. In Fig. 3, the thickness is shown as a length L.
[0040] The accommodating portion 26 that accommodates the shock absorbing member 25 is recessed
in accordance with the shape of the shock absorbing member 25 and is formed in accordance
with the number of shock absorbing members 25. As described above, since the shock
absorbing member 25 is provided below the plate 30, the accommodating portion 26 is
at a position of being covered with the plate 30, and one accommodating portion 26
is provided for each of a back side and a front side in the lengthwise direction with
respect to the fixing portion 24 in the example shown in Fig. 3. In addition, in the
example shown in Fig. 3, the accommodating portion 26 is recessed downward by a length
of L in accordance with the thickness of the shock absorbing member 25 with the position
of the fixing portion 24 as reference and is recessed from a surface of the body portion
21 by a length of D + L obtained by adding the thickness D of the plate 30.
[0041] In a case of being viewed from the upper side of Fig. 2, the plate 30 is a plate
that has a shape of a rectangle extending in the lengthwise direction and of which
four corners of the rectangle are rounded. The plate 30 is made of a material having
elasticity with respect to plate bending deformation and is formed of, for example,
a resin material.
[0042] The plate 30 includes a positioning hole 31 that is a through-hole for performing
positioning with the body portion 21, a fixing hole 32 that is a through-hole for
fixing to the body portion 21, and a load receiving portion 35 that receives a load
from the casters 101 (see Fig. 1) of the multifunction machine 100. The positioning
hole 31 is removed such that the cylindrical shape of the protruding portion 28 of
the fixing portion 24 is accommodated and is disposed in a central region in a longitudinal
direction of the plate 30, and two positioning holes 31 are arranged in a lateral
direction.
[0043] The fixing hole 32 is a through-hole through which a screw passes and is provided
corresponding to the screw fixing portion 29 of the fixing portion 24.
[0044] The load receiving portions 35 are regions on both end sides from a region where
the plate 30 is fixed to the body portion 21 and are regions that receive a load from
the casters 101 of the multifunction machine 100. In other words, the plate 30 is
fixed to the body portion 21 in a region between the load receiving portions 35.
[0045] The restricting member 50 shown in Fig. 2 is a member for restricting a horizontal
movement of the multifunction machine 100 (see Fig. 1) placed on the transportation
pallet 20. The restricting member 50 is, for example, a plate member made of a sheet
metal formed of high-tensile steel. The restricting member 50 is configured by, for
example, an L-shaped leaf spring. The restricting member 50 includes a base portion
51 that is fixed to the load receiving portion 35 of the plate 30, an insertion portion
52 that is inserted from a gap in an exterior of a lower surface of the multifunction
machine 100, and a hook portion 53 that is inserted from the exterior of the lower
surface of the multifunction machine 100 and that is hooked to the inside of the multifunction
machine 100.
[0046] The base portion 51 is configured in, for example, a rectangular shape and has a
through-hole for fixing the base portion 51 to the load receiving portion 35 of the
plate 30 at a central portion of the rectangular shape. By passing a bolt through
the through-hole and fixing the bolt to the load receiving portion 35 of the plate
30, the base portion 51 is fixed to the plate 30.
[0047] In a case where the multifunction machine 100 is placed on the transportation pallet
20, the insertion portion 52 is a plate that extends from one side of the rectangle
of the base portion 51 to be inserted into the gap in the exterior of the lower surface
of the multifunction machine 100 and extends from the upper surface of the transportation
pallet 20 toward the upper side.
[0048] The hook portion 53 is hooked from the inside of the exterior of the lower surface
of the multifunction machine 100 and restrains the multifunction machine 100 such
that the restricting member 50 does not come off the multifunction machine 100 in
a case where the multifunction machine 100 moves upward. In the present exemplary
embodiment, the hook portion 53 bends from an upper portion of the insertion portion
52.
[0049] Herein, in order to facilitate understanding of features of the present exemplary
embodiment, a comparative example will be given and described.
[0050] As the comparative example, a transportation pallet 200 that does not have the plate
30 and that restricts a horizontal movement of the multifunction machine 100 with
a restricting member 500 which does not elastically deform will be described.
[0051] Fig. 6 is a schematic view showing the comparative example in which the position
of the restricting member 500 does not change with respect to the transportation pallet
200 and shows, in a case where the multifunction machine 100 has moved horizontally
with respect to the transportation pallet 200, an example in a case where the horizontal
movement is restricted by the restricting member 500.
[0052] As shown in Fig. 6, one end of the restricting member 500 fixed to the transportation
pallet 200 enters a hole 111 provided in the lower portion of the multifunction machine
100, and the horizontal movement of the multifunction machine 100 is restricted. However,
for example, in a case where the transportation pallet 200 which has been moving in
a rightward direction of Fig. 6 suddenly stops, the multifunction machine 100 receives
a high load in the rightward direction, but in this case, in a case where the restricting
member 500 hits the hole 111 of the multifunction machine 100, the transportation
pallet 200 cannot move in the rightward direction any further due to the stopped restricting
member 500. For this reason, the multifunction machine 100 rotates clockwise with
a contact portion between the restricting member 500 and the hole 111 on a right side
as reference. As a result, an upper end of the multifunction machine 100 is tilted,
collides with the box body 10, and receives a locally great shock.
[0053] In the present exemplary embodiment, a local shock generated at the multifunction
machine 100 in which the upper end of the multifunction machine 100 shown in Fig.
6 is tilted and collides with the box body 10 is reduced.
(About Horizontal Movement of Multifunction Machine 100 in Present Exemplary Embodiment)
[0054] Next, a movement in a case where the multifunction machine 100 has horizontally moved
in the transportation pallet 20 of the present exemplary embodiment will be described
with reference to Figs. 4 to 5B.
[0055] Fig. 4 is a schematic view showing a state where the multifunction machine 100 moves
in the horizontal direction with respect to the transportation pallet 20 and has come
into contact with the box body 10. A case where the transportation pallet 20, which
has been moving in the rightward direction of Fig. 4, is suddenly stopped is assumed.
[0056] The restricting member 50 of the transportation pallet 20 of the present exemplary
embodiment is provided at the plate 30 that has elasticity. As described above, a
central region of the plate 30 in the longitudinal direction of the plate 30 is fixed,
and the load receiving portions 35 (see Fig. 3) on both end sides of the plate 30
are not fixed and are placed on the shock absorbing members 25. For this reason, the
load receiving portions 35 can rise and sink. The load receiving portions 35 rise
with a weaker force from the central region in the longitudinal direction to which
the plate 30 is fixed toward a tip. In addition, a plate surface of the plate 30 can
rise in a twisted manner depending on the structure of the plate 30.
[0057] As shown in Fig. 4, in a case where the multifunction machine 100 moves right and
left in the width direction, a part of the plate 30 rises. As the plate 30 rises,
the restricting member 50 can be tilted. Accordingly, the multifunction machine 100
horizontally moves without rotating around the restricting member 50. A side surface
of the multifunction machine 100 which has horizontally moved collides with the box
body 10. As the side surface of the multifunction machine 100 collides with the box
body 10, for example, as a wide region of the side surface, such as the entire side
surface, collides, a shock can be dispersed, and generation of a locally great shock
can be suppressed.
[0058] Herein, a movement until the multifunction machine 100 moves from a left side to
the right side in the width direction and the state of Fig. 4 is reached will be described
with reference to Figs. 5A and 5B.
[0059] Figs. 5A and 5B are enlarged views of a region V of Fig. 4. Fig. 5A is a view showing
a state where the multifunction machine 100 horizontally moves and starts to come
into contact with the restricting member 50. In addition, Fig. 5B is a view showing
a state where the multifunction machine 100 has further horizontally moved.
[0060] As shown in Fig. 5A, the load receiving portion 35 (see Fig. 3) of the plate 30 is
disposed on the shock absorbing member 25. In addition, the longitudinal direction
of the plate 30 is disposed in a direction from the front side to the back side of
Fig. 5A. The restricting member 50 is disposed such that a plate surface of the insertion
portion 52 of the restricting member 50 faces a direction toward the front of Fig.
5A. That is, the restricting member 50 does not elastically deform even in a case
where a force is applied to the insertion portion 52 from the left side to the right
side in the width direction of Fig. 5A.
[0061] In a case where the multifunction machine 100 moves from the left side to the right
side in the width direction with respect to the transportation pallet 20, the insertion
portion 52 and the hole 111 come into contact with each other. Then, in a case where
the multifunction machine 100 further moves to the right side in the width direction,
the insertion portion 52 receives a force to the right side in the width direction.
The plate 30 of the present exemplary embodiment has elasticity, and a part thereof
rises in a case where a force to the right side in the width direction is generated
at the insertion portion 52. Accordingly, the insertion portion 52 is tilted, a position
where the insertion portion 52 and the hole 111 come into contact with each other
moves in the rightward direction, and the multifunction machine 100 horizontally moves
as it is.
[0062] In addition, even in a case where the multifunction machine 100 does not rotate around
the restricting member 50, for example, a case where a frictional force between the
casters 101 and the plate 30 is great, rotation around the casters 101 is performed
in some cases.
[0063] In the present exemplary embodiment, as shown in Fig. 5B, as the load receiving portion
35 of the plate 30 is tilted to move downward in a movement direction of the multifunction
machine 100 (downward to the right), an increase in the frictional force between the
casters 101 and the plate 30 can be suppressed, and the occurrence of rotation around
the casters 101 is suppressed. Accordingly, the multifunction machine 100 continues
to horizontally move.
[0064] In addition, although an example in which the multifunction machine 100 horizontally
moves to the right side in the width direction (the lateral direction of the plate
30) has been described with reference to Fig. 4, as the load receiving portion 35
of the plate 30 rises and is tilted also in a case where the multifunction machine
100 has horizontally moved in the longitudinal direction of the plate 30, the restricting
member 50 is tilted, and the movement of the multifunction machine 100 is continued.
Accordingly, by colliding with a wide region of a front surface or a back surface
of the multifunction machine 100, a shock can be dispersed.
[0065] In addition, the load receiving portion 35 of the plate 30 of the present exemplary
embodiment is placed on the shock absorbing member 25, a shock in an up-down direction
is absorbed by the shock absorbing member 25, and a shock to the multifunction machine
100 is suppressed.
[0066] Although the multifunction machine 100 has been described hereinbefore as an example
of a packed body in the exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the packed
body packed by the packing body 1 is not limited to the multifunction machine 100
and can also be, for example, an electronic device to be packed.
