Description

本発明は、外形が直方体形状の温水装置の包装構造に関し、特に運搬のために温水装置の底面よりも大きいパレット部材に載置した温水装置の包装構造に関する。 BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a packaging structure for a water heater having a rectangular parallelepiped outer shape, and more particularly to a packaging structure for a water heater placed on a pallet member larger than the bottom surface of the water heater for transportation.

通常、工場で製造されて出荷される温水装置は、フォークリフトによって運搬可能なようにパレット部材に載置される。そして、他の物体との衝突によって温水装置に汚れや傷がついたり破損したりしないように、例えば段ボール製の包装材で温水装置を覆い、パレット部材と共に包装材の外周をバンドで固定して一体化されている。この包装された温水装置を載せたパレット部材をフォークリフトで持ち上げたときに、フォークリフトが包装材に接触して包装材が汚れたり破損したりすることがないように、温水装置の底面よりも大きいパレット部材が使用される。 Typically, factory manufactured and shipped water heaters are mounted on pallet members so that they can be transported by a forklift. In order to prevent the water heater from being dirty, scratched or damaged due to collision with other objects, the water heater is covered with a cardboard packaging material, and the outer periphery of the packaging material is fixed with a band together with the pallet member. are integrated. The pallet is larger than the bottom of the water heater so that when the pallet member carrying the wrapped water heater is lifted by a forklift, the forklift does not come into contact with the packaging material and stain or damage the packaging material. material is used.

出荷される複数の温水装置は、パレット部材間に隙間ができないように輸送車両に載せられる。このとき、パレット部材が温水装置の底面よりも大きいので、複数の温水装置の間には隙間があり、輸送中に輸送車両の揺れによって温水装置が揺動する場合がある。温水装置が揺動すると、隣り合う温水装置同士が衝突する虞があり、温水装置が転倒する虞もある。それ故、例えば特許文献１のように、温水装置上部の包装材にスペーサ部材を被せてバンドで固定し、揺動し易い方向に隣接する温水装置の包装材との間に隙間ができないようにすることにより、温水装置を揺動し難くして破損、転倒を防いでいる。 A plurality of water heaters to be shipped are placed on the transport vehicle so that there are no gaps between the pallet members. At this time, since the pallet member is larger than the bottom surface of the water heater, there is a gap between the plurality of water heaters, and the water heater may swing due to the shaking of the transportation vehicle during transportation. When the water heater swings, the adjacent water heaters may collide with each other, and the water heaters may overturn. Therefore, as in Patent Document 1, for example, a spacer member is placed on the packaging material of the upper part of the water heater and fixed with a band so that there is no gap between the packaging material of the water heater adjacent in the direction in which it is easy to swing. As a result, the water heater is less likely to swing and is prevented from being damaged or overturned.

以下、本発明を実施するための形態について実施例に基づいて説明する。 EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION Hereinafter, the form for implementing this invention is demonstrated based on an Example.

温水装置Ｈは、設置スペースを小さくすると共に建物の外壁に寄せて設置して外壁から突出する距離を小さくするために、外形が上下方向に長い薄型の直方体形状に形成されている。この温水装置Ｈを包装するための温水装置の包装構造１は、図１に示すように、載置する温水装置Ｈの底面よりも載置面が大きいパレット部材２と、例えば段ボールシートが折り曲げられて形成された側面包装部材３と、底面開放の箱状に形成された天部材１０と、これらを固定して一体化するための複数のバンド部材４，５を有する。 The water heater H is formed in a thin rectangular parallelepiped shape that is elongated in the vertical direction in order to reduce the installation space and to reduce the distance protruding from the outer wall of the building by installing it close to the outer wall of the building. As shown in FIG. 1, the water heater packaging structure 1 for packaging the water heater H comprises a pallet member 2 having a mounting surface larger than the bottom surface of the water heater H to be placed, and a folded cardboard sheet, for example. It has a side packaging member 3 formed by a single piece, a top member 10 formed in the shape of a box with an open bottom, and a plurality of band members 4 and 5 for fixing and integrating them.

パレット部材２に載置された温水装置Ｈは、側面包装部材３によって側面の大部分を覆われた状態で天部材１０が被せられて、温水装置Ｈの上部が側面包装部材３の上部と共に天部材１０に覆われる。この状態で側面包装部材３の外周をバンド部材４で締結すると共に、パレット部材２と天部材１０をバンド部材５で締結することにより、温水装置の包装構造１を固定している。 The water heater H placed on the pallet member 2 is covered with the top member 10 in a state where most of the side surface is covered by the side surface packaging member 3, and the upper part of the water heater H is placed on the ceiling together with the upper part of the side surface packaging member 3. It is covered with member 10 . In this state, the outer periphery of the side packaging member 3 is fastened with the band member 4, and the pallet member 2 and the top member 10 are fastened with the band member 5, thereby fixing the packaging structure 1 of the water heater.

図２～図４に示すように、天部材１０は、矩形の天板部１０ａと、天板部１０ａの４辺から夫々下方に延びる側板部１０ｂ～１０ｅを有する。矩形の天板部１０ａの一方の長辺から延びる側板部１０ｂには、天板部１０ａと側板部１０ｂとで形成される角部に近い側板部１０ｂの幅方向中央上部に、緩衝用のスペーサ部材１５を取り付けるためのスペーサ取付部１１が設けられている。天板部１０ａの他方の長辺から延びる側板部１０ｄにも、スペーサ取付部１１と同様のスペーサ取付部１２が設けられている。 As shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, the top member 10 has a rectangular top plate portion 10a and side plate portions 10b to 10e extending downward from four sides of the top plate portion 10a. On the side plate portion 10b extending from one long side of the rectangular top plate portion 10a, a cushioning spacer is provided at the upper center in the width direction of the side plate portion 10b near the corner formed by the top plate portion 10a and the side plate portion 10b. A spacer mounting portion 11 for mounting the member 15 is provided. A side plate portion 10d extending from the other long side of the top plate portion 10a is also provided with a spacer mounting portion 12 similar to the spacer mounting portion 11. As shown in FIG.

これらのスペーサ取付部１１，１２には、対応する緩衝用のスペーサ部材１５が固定されている。スペーサ部材１５は、複数の温水装置Ｈがパレット部材２間に隙間ができないように輸送車両に載せられたときに、隣接する温水装置Ｈの天部材１０との間の隙間を埋めて衝突、衝撃を和らげる緩衝機能を有する。 Corresponding cushioning spacer members 15 are fixed to the spacer mounting portions 11 and 12 . The spacer members 15 fill the gaps between the top members 10 of the adjacent water heaters H when the plurality of water heaters H are placed on the transport vehicle so that no gaps are formed between the pallet members 2, thereby preventing collisions and impacts. It has a buffer function that softens the

底面開放の箱状に形成された天部材１０は、温水装置Ｈの上部に被せられ、バンド部材５で固定される（図１参照）。温水装置の包装構造１で包装された複数の温水装置Ｈを載せた輸送車両が揺れた場合には、温水装置Ｈは底面の幅が狭い方向（図４の左右方向）に揺動し易い。しかし、隣接する温水装置Ｈの間において、下部はパレット部材２によって隙間がなく、上部は天部材１０の側板部１０ｂ，１０ｄに夫々固定されたスペーサ部材１５によって隙間がない。それ故、複数の温水装置Ｈが互いに支え合って揺動し難くなり、揺動による温水装置Ｈの破損、転倒を防ぐことができる。 A top member 10 formed in a box shape with an open bottom is put on the upper part of the water heater H and fixed with a band member 5 (see FIG. 1). When a transportation vehicle on which a plurality of water heaters H packaged in the water heater packaging structure 1 is mounted shakes, the water heaters H tend to swing in the direction in which the width of the bottom surface is narrow (horizontal direction in FIG. 4). However, between the adjacent water heaters H, there is no gap in the lower part due to the pallet member 2, and there is no gap in the upper part due to the spacer members 15 fixed to the side plate portions 10b and 10d of the top member 10, respectively. Therefore, the plurality of water heaters H support each other and are less likely to swing, and the water heaters H can be prevented from being damaged or overturned due to swinging.

スペーサ取付部１１，１２について、図３、図４に基づいて説明する。
スペーサ取付部１１は、天板部１０ａと側板部１０ｂとで形成される角部に近い側板部１０ｂの上端近傍に形成された横長の第１挿通孔１１ａと、第１挿通孔１１ａから下方に所定距離離隔した位置に形成された横長の第２挿通孔１１ｂを有する。側板部１０ｂの幅方向（左右方向）における第２挿通孔１１ｂの長さは、第１挿通孔１１ａの長さよりも短く形成されている。スペーサ取付部１２は、スペーサ取付部１１と同じ構造なので説明を省略するが、横長の第１挿通孔１２ａと、第１挿通孔１２ａよりも短い横長の第２挿通孔１２ｂを有する。 The spacer mounting portions 11 and 12 will be described with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4. FIG.
The spacer mounting portion 11 has a horizontally long first insertion hole 11a formed near the upper end of the side plate portion 10b near the corner formed by the top plate portion 10a and the side plate portion 10b, and downward from the first insertion hole 11a. It has oblong second through holes 11b formed at positions separated by a predetermined distance. The length of the second insertion hole 11b in the width direction (horizontal direction) of the side plate portion 10b is formed shorter than the length of the first insertion hole 11a. The spacer attachment portion 12 has the same structure as the spacer attachment portion 11, and therefore has a laterally long first insertion hole 12a and a laterally long second insertion hole 12b shorter than the first insertion hole 12a.

スペーサ部材１５について、図５、図６に基づいて説明する。
スペーサ部材１５は、緩衝機能を備えた本体部１５ａと、第１挿通孔１１ａに差し込まれる第１差込部１５ｂと、第２挿通孔１１ｂに差し込まれる第２差込部１５ｃを有する。本体部１５ａは、例えば側板部１０ｂのスペーサ取付部１１に固定されたときに直方体状のスペーサ部材１５となるように、本体部１５ａの上部（本体部上部１５ｄ）と側部（本体部側部１５ｅ）と下部（本体部下部１５ｆ）によって断面コ字状に形成されている。そして、本体部下部１５ｆの側板部１０ｂ側の端部と、本体部上部１５ｄと本体部側部１５ｅとで形成される角部を連結する補強部１５ｇによって、本体部１５ａ内が断面三角形の筒状に区画され、本体部１５ａの変形が抑制される。 The spacer member 15 will be described with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6. FIG.
The spacer member 15 has a body portion 15a having a cushioning function, a first insertion portion 15b inserted into the first insertion hole 11a, and a second insertion portion 15c inserted into the second insertion hole 11b. The main body portion 15a is arranged so that, for example, when it is fixed to the spacer mounting portion 11 of the side plate portion 10b, it becomes a rectangular parallelepiped spacer member 15. 15e) and the lower portion (lower portion 15f of the main body portion) form a U-shaped cross section. The inner portion of the body portion 15a is formed into a cylinder having a triangular cross-section by means of a reinforcement portion 15g that connects the end portion of the body portion lower portion 15f on the side plate portion 10b side and the corner portion formed by the body portion upper portion 15d and the body portion side portion 15e. , and the deformation of the main body portion 15a is suppressed.

第１差込部１５ｂは、本体部上部１５ｄの側板部１０ｂ側部分から側方（側板部１０ｂ側）に延びている。この第１差込部１５ｂは、幅が第１挿通孔１１ａの長さよりも大きい先端部１５ｈと、幅が第１挿通孔１１ａの長さよりも小さい基端部１５ｉを有する。先端部１５ｈは、先端側ほど幅が狭くなるように形成された傾斜部を有する。第２差込部１５ｃは、幅が第２挿通孔１１ｂの長さと同等であり、本体部下部１５ｆの幅方向中央部から第１差込部１５ｂと同じ方向に延びている。 The first insertion portion 15b extends laterally (toward the side plate portion 10b) from the side plate portion 10b side portion of the main body upper portion 15d. The first insertion portion 15b has a distal end portion 15h whose width is larger than the length of the first insertion hole 11a, and a base end portion 15i whose width is smaller than the length of the first insertion hole 11a. The distal end portion 15h has an inclined portion formed so that the width becomes narrower toward the distal end side. The second insertion portion 15c has a width equal to the length of the second insertion hole 11b, and extends in the same direction as the first insertion portion 15b from the center portion in the width direction of the lower body portion 15f.

スペーサ部材１５は、例えば矩形状の段ボールシートを第１、第２差込部１５ｂ、１５ｃを有する所定の形状に形成し、筒状に折り曲げて形成されている。図７に示すように、矩形の段ボールシートの隣り合う２つの角部が斜めに切り取られて先端側程幅が狭くなる傾斜部が形成され、この幅方向に対向する段ボールシートの両端から幅方向中央に向かって細長い矩形状に夫々切り欠かれた同じ長さの切り欠き部１５ｊ、１５ｋが形成されている。これにより、傾斜部を有する先端部１５ｈと、先端部１５ｈよりも幅が小さい第１差込部１５ｂの基端部１５ｉを有する第１差込部１５ｂが形成されている。 The spacer member 15 is formed, for example, by forming a rectangular corrugated cardboard sheet into a predetermined shape having first and second insertion portions 15b and 15c and bending it into a tubular shape. As shown in FIG. 7, two adjacent corners of a rectangular corrugated cardboard sheet are cut obliquely to form an inclined portion in which the width becomes narrower toward the tip side, and from both ends of the corrugated cardboard sheet facing each other in the width direction, a slope is formed. Cutouts 15j and 15k of the same length are formed in elongated rectangular shapes toward the center. As a result, a tip portion 15h having an inclined portion and a first insertion portion 15b having a base end portion 15i of the first insertion portion 15b whose width is smaller than that of the tip portion 15h are formed.

基端部１５ｉと先端部１５ｈを有する第１差込部１５ｂは、段ボールシートにおけるスペーサ部材１５の本体部１５ａとなる部分から延びている。尚、切り欠き部１５ｊ又は切り欠き部１５ｋの長さと、第１差込部１５ｂの基端部１５ｉの幅の和が、第１挿通孔１１ａの長さと同程度になる。換言すると、切り欠き部１５ｊ又は切り欠き部１５ｋの長さを、第１差込部１５ｂの幅から減算した長さが、第１挿通孔１１ａの長さと同程度である。 A first insertion portion 15b having a base end portion 15i and a tip end portion 15h extends from a portion of the corrugated cardboard sheet that serves as the main body portion 15a of the spacer member 15. As shown in FIG. The sum of the length of the notch portion 15j or the notch portion 15k and the width of the base end portion 15i of the first insertion portion 15b is approximately the same as the length of the first insertion hole 11a. In other words, the length obtained by subtracting the length of the notch portion 15j or the notch portion 15k from the width of the first insertion portion 15b is approximately the same as the length of the first insertion hole 11a.

段ボールシートにおけるスペーサ部材１５の本体部１５ａとなる部分は、第１差込部１５ｂの幅方向と平行な３つの折り曲げ部を有し、これらを第１差込部１５ｂ側から順に第１折り曲げ部１５ｍ、第２折り曲げ部１５ｎ、第３折り曲げ部１５ｐとする。第１差込部１５ｂの基端部１５ｉと第１折り曲げ部１５ｍの間の部分が本体部上部１５ｄになり、第１折り曲げ部１５ｍと第２折り曲げ部１５ｎの間の部分が本体部側部１５ｅになる。また、第２折り曲げ部１５ｎと第３折り曲げ部１５ｐの間が本体部下部１５ｆになり、第３折り曲げ部１５ｐから第１差込部１５ｂと反対側の端部までが補強部１５ｇになる。 A portion of the corrugated cardboard sheet to be the main body portion 15a of the spacer member 15 has three folded portions parallel to the width direction of the first insertion portion 15b, and these are sequentially folded from the first insertion portion 15b side. 15m, a second bent portion 15n, and a third bent portion 15p. The portion between the base end portion 15i of the first insertion portion 15b and the first bent portion 15m is the main body portion upper portion 15d, and the portion between the first bent portion 15m and the second bent portion 15n is the main body side portion 15e. become. A portion between the second bent portion 15n and the third bent portion 15p forms a main body lower portion 15f, and a portion from the third bent portion 15p to the end opposite to the first insertion portion 15b forms a reinforcing portion 15g.

補強部１５ｇの第１差込部１５ｂと反対側の端部には、２つの差込突起部１５ｑが形成されている。本体部上部１５ｄの第１折り曲げ部１５ｍの近傍における２つの差込突起部１５ｑに対応する位置には、補強部１５ｇの２つの差込突起部１５ｑを差し込むための２つの開口部１５ｒが形成されている。第３折り曲げ部１５ｐの中央部は、本体部下部１５ｆから２つの差込突起部１５ｑ側に向かって突出するように補強部１５ｇがコ字状に切り抜かれて、本体部下部１５ｆから延びる第２差込部１５ｃが形成されている。 Two insertion projections 15q are formed at the end of the reinforcing portion 15g opposite to the first insertion portion 15b. Two openings 15r for inserting the two insertion projections 15q of the reinforcing portion 15g are formed at positions corresponding to the two insertion projections 15q near the first bent portion 15m of the main body upper portion 15d. ing. At the center of the third bent portion 15p, a reinforcing portion 15g is cut out in a U-shape so as to protrude from the main body lower portion 15f toward the two insertion protrusions 15q, and the second bending portion 15p extends from the main body lower portion 15f. An insertion portion 15c is formed.

上記のように所定の形状に形成した段ボールシートを、第１折り曲げ部１５ｍ～第３折り曲げ部１５ｐで同じ方向に折り曲げて、本体部側部１５ｅと本体部下部１５ｆと補強部１５ｇとで断面が三角形の筒を形成する。そして、２つの差込突起部１５ｑを対応する２つの開口部１５ｒに差し込んで筒の形状を固定することにより、スペーサ部材１６が形成される。第３折り曲げ部１５ｐが折り曲げられることにより、第２差込部１５ｃは本体部下部１５ｆから突出した状態になる。また、このスペーサ部材１５の本体部上部１５ｄから延びる第１差込部１５ｂを水平な姿勢にしたときに、第１差込部１５ｂの基端部１５ｉと第２差込部１５ｃが鉛直方向において重なる位置になる。 The corrugated cardboard sheet formed into a predetermined shape as described above is folded in the same direction at the first folding portion 15m to the third folding portion 15p, and the cross section is formed by the main body side portion 15e, the main body lower portion 15f, and the reinforcing portion 15g. Form a triangular cylinder. Then, the spacer member 16 is formed by inserting the two insertion protrusions 15q into the corresponding two openings 15r to fix the cylindrical shape. By bending the third bent portion 15p, the second insertion portion 15c protrudes from the main body portion lower portion 15f. Further, when the first insertion portion 15b extending from the main body portion upper portion 15d of the spacer member 15 is placed in a horizontal posture, the base end portion 15i and the second insertion portion 15c of the first insertion portion 15b be in an overlapping position.

スペーサ部材１５の取り付けについて、図８に基づいて説明する。
最初に、上段に示すように、側板部１０ｂの側方からスペーサ取付部１１の第１挿通孔１１ａに対して第１差込部１５ｂを斜め姿勢で差し込み、第１差込部１５ｂの基端部１５ｉにおける一方の切り欠き部として例えば切り欠き部１５ｊに側板部１０ｂをはめ込む。次に、中段に示すように、他方の切り欠き部１５ｋを側板部１０ｂに近づけるように差し込みながら、切り欠き部１５ｊ全体に側板部１０ｂが入り込むように側板部１０ｂの幅方向にスペーサ部材１５を移動させ、切り欠き部１５ｋの位置を側板部１０ｂに合わせる。そして、下段に示すように、切り欠き部１５ｋの一部にも側板部１０ｂが入り込むようにスペーサ部材１５を側板部１０ｂの幅方向に移動させる。 Attachment of the spacer member 15 will be described with reference to FIG.

Then, the main body upper portion 15d and the tip portion 15h of the first insertion portion 15b are engaged with the side plate portion 10b, and the first insertion portion 15b is inserted in the insertion direction and in the direction opposite to the insertion direction (extraction direction). movement of the first insertion portion 15b is restricted. By inserting the second insertion portion 15 c into the second insertion hole 11 b in this state, the side plate portion 10 b of the spacer member 15 is restricted from moving in the width direction, and the spacer member 15 is fixed to the top member 10 . The spacer member 15 is fixed to the spacer attachment portion 12 in the same manner as described above.

図３、図９に示すように、天部材１０の内側には、温水装置Ｈの幅が広い側面の上端角部を保護するために、その角部に沿う断面Ｌ字状に形成された天パッド部材１８が配設される。このとき、第２挿通孔１１ｂに差し込まれたスペーサ部材１５の第２差込部１５ｃによって、天パッド部材１８の下端が支持される。また、天パッド部材１８の上端が、第１挿通孔１１ａに差し込まれたスペーサ部材１５の第１差込部１５ｂに当接し、第１差込部１５ｂと第２差込部１５ｃによって天パッド部材１８が挟持された状態になる。これにより、天パッド部材１８を天部材１０の内側に装着することが可能であり、高さがある温水装置Ｈに天パッド部材１８を天部材１０と共に容易に被せることができる。 As shown in FIGS. 3 and 9, inside the top member 10, in order to protect the upper corners of the wide side surfaces of the water heater H, the ceiling is formed to have an L-shaped cross section along the corners. A pad member 18 is provided. At this time, the lower end of the top pad member 18 is supported by the second insertion portion 15c of the spacer member 15 inserted into the second insertion hole 11b. Further, the upper end of the top pad member 18 abuts on the first insertion portion 15b of the spacer member 15 that has been inserted into the first insertion hole 11a, and the top pad member is moved by the first insertion portion 15b and the second insertion portion 15c. 18 is sandwiched. Thereby, the top pad member 18 can be mounted inside the top member 10, and the top pad member 18 can be easily covered with the top member 10 on the water heater H having a height.

上記の温水装置の包装構造１の作用、効果について説明する。
パレット部材２に載置された温水装置Ｈに天部材１０が被せられて、温水装置Ｈの上部が覆われる。この天部材１０の天板部１０ａの対向する長辺から下方に延びる側板部１０ｂ，１０ｄには、スペーサ取付部１１，１２が設けられている。このスペーサ取付部１１，１２には、対応する緩衝用のスペーサ部材１５が側方から差し込まれて固定される。従って、従来の天部材１０に被せるタイプよりもスペーサ部材１５を小型化して材料を節約することができ、温水装置の包装構造１の製造コストを低減することができる。 The operation and effects of the above-described packaging structure 1 for a water heater will be described.
A top member 10 is put on the water heater H placed on the pallet member 2 to cover the upper part of the water heater H. - 特許庁Side plate portions 10b and 10d extending downward from opposed long sides of the top plate portion 10a of the top member 10 are provided with spacer attachment portions 11 and 12, respectively. Corresponding spacer members 15 for cushioning are inserted into and fixed to the spacer mounting portions 11 and 12 from the sides. Therefore, the spacer member 15 can be made smaller than the conventional type that covers the top member 10, and the material can be saved, so that the manufacturing cost of the packaging structure 1 for the water heater can be reduced.

また、天部材１０の側板部１０ｂの幅方向中央上部に設けられたスペーサ取付部１１において、対応するスペーサ部材１５が、上下方向に所定距離離隔した横長の第１挿通孔１１ａ、第２挿通孔１１ｂに差し込まれて固定される。天部材１０の側板部１０ｄの幅方向中央上部に設けられたスペーサ取付部１２においても同様に、対応するスペーサ部材１５が上下方向に所定距離離隔した横長の第１挿通孔１２ａ、第２挿通孔１２ｂに差し込まれて固定される。スペーサ部材１５を上下２箇所で固定することによって、スペーサ部材１５のずれ、脱落を防止することができる。 In addition, in the spacer mounting portion 11 provided at the upper center in the width direction of the side plate portion 10b of the top member 10, the corresponding spacer member 15 has a horizontally elongated first insertion hole 11a and a second insertion hole separated by a predetermined distance in the vertical direction. 11b and fixed. Similarly, in the spacer mounting portion 12 provided at the upper center in the width direction of the side plate portion 10d of the top member 10, the corresponding spacer member 15 is formed in a horizontally elongated first insertion hole 12a and a second insertion hole separated by a predetermined distance in the vertical direction. 12b and fixed. By fixing the spacer member 15 at two upper and lower positions, it is possible to prevent the spacer member 15 from shifting and falling off.
