Description

  The present invention relates to a roll paper package in which a plurality of roll papers are packaged.

Toilet rolls are usually marketed in a state where a plurality of toilet rolls are gusset-wrapped or caramel-wrapped with a sheet material such as a film or paper (an example of gusset wrapping is shown in FIG. 3).
The package 100 using gusset packaging is often used for a package having a large number of roll papers 111, for example, 12 pieces (also referred to as 12 rolls) or 8 pieces (also referred to as 8 rolls) as illustrated.
The reason is that the gusset packaging forms a strong handle 113 integral with the film material 112 by a simple operation of forming an adhesive margin 116 in the surplus margin 115 and forming a hole in the surplus margin 116. There is in being able to.
In general, when the number of packages of roll paper increases, it becomes a size that does not fit in a shopping bag. Therefore, it is extremely useful to be able to form such a handle 113.
JP2003-182767 JP2003-0504504

However, since the gusset packaging 113 requires the surplus allowance 115 and the adhesive allowance 116, the material cost of a film etc. is high and the work cost for handle formation is also high.
In particular, as the number of households has decreased in recent years, the demand for packages with a small number of packages has been increasing, but gusset packaging requires a large amount of bonding, which is a surplus part, so the number of packages is small. The disadvantage of material costs becomes significant in the process.
On the other hand, in caramel packaging, compared to gusset packaging, the amount of film used is small and the material cost is excellent, but there is a drawback that it is difficult to form a handle.
This is because this type of product is generally displayed with a stable end face up and down, so in the case of caramel packaging, both ends of a separate strip of tape material are provided to provide handles. This requires a complicated operation of sticking to the peripheral surface side of the roll paper, it is difficult to obtain a sufficient adhesive force, and the advantage of low cost of caramel packaging is offset.
Then, the main subject of this invention is providing the toilet roll package body which is excellent in reducing the cost which concerns on packaging materials and a packaging operation | work, and convenience and handleability, especially easy to carry.

  According to the present invention described above, a toilet roll package that is reduced in costs related to packaging materials and packaging operations and that is excellent in convenience and handleability, particularly easy to carry is provided.

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 shows a package of roll paper 11 of this embodiment. In the present packaging body 10, a plurality of roll papers 11, 11... Are wrapped with a sheet material 12.
The roll paper 11, 11... Is not particularly limited as long as a long sheet such as paper or non-woven fabric is wound up in a roll shape, and examples thereof include a toilet roll and a kitchen roll. The roll paper in the illustrated example is a toilet roll.

Specific physical properties such as the types of roll papers 11, 11... And their raw materials, basis weight, density, winding density, size, and number of plies are not particularly limited. The manufacturing method and the like are also based on known techniques.
For example, if the toilet roll is a two-ply sheet, the core diameter is 35 to 48 mm, the winding diameter is 100 to 120 mm, the winding length is 20 to 50 m, and the winding density is about 0.820 to 0.970 m / cm. A thing is common and this toilet roll can also employ | adopt such a toilet roll.
If it is a kitchen roll, what is comprised by the laminated body of the nonwoven fabric sheet containing fibers, such as rayon, polyethylene terephthalate, and polyacryl, the laminated body which laminated | stacked the pulp sheet on this, etc. can be illustrated.

On the other hand, in the present packaging body 10, the roll papers 11, 11,... Are juxtaposed so as to have a substantially linear end face row 10S adjacent to each other. In the illustrated package 10, as a preferred example, a total of six roll papers 11 are arranged so as to be lined up, three in the direction in contact with the peripheral surface 11S and two in the direction in contact with the end surface 11C.
Of course, the arrangement of the plurality of roll papers 11, 11... Is not limited to this arrangement, and may be an arrangement in which six roll papers are arranged in a direction in contact with the peripheral surface.

As the sheet material 12 for wrapping the roll paper 11, 11 ..., a known sheet material used as a packaging material for this type of roll paper can be used. For example, a resinous film sheet, synthetic paper, kraft paper, etc., and laminated sheets thereof.
Among these, a resinous film sheet is preferable. The resinous film sheet may be a laminated sheet of a plurality of types of resin film sheets.
A thermoplastic resin film sheet is particularly suitable. Those having heat stretchability are also suitable.

Specific examples of the thermoplastic resin film sheet include a cellophane film sheet, a polystyrene film sheet, a polyethylene film sheet, and a polypropylene film sheet.
Furthermore, in the case of a resin film sheet, it is preferable that the roll paper contained is transparent so that it can be visually recognized from the outside. There is no denying that appropriate printing of product names and the like is performed for commercial use.

On the other hand, this package 10 employs caramel packaging as a packaging method. Caramel packaging itself is a well-known technique. In other words, the object to be wrapped is wrapped with a sheet material, the overlapping edges in the winding direction are bonded, and the part extending beyond the object to be wrapped is further peeled from the two opposite edges. It is a packaging form in which at least the front edge portions of a triangular piece or a trapezoidal piece formed on the object side are bonded to each other.
A known device is used as a device for caramel packaging.

In the present packaging body 10, particularly in such caramel packaging, the sealing portion 12 </ b> S is positioned on the end surface row side 10 </ b> S where the end surface 11 </ b> C of the roll paper 11 is exposed side by side.
Here, in the caramel packaging, the sealing portion 12S in the present invention is such that the portion extending beyond the sheet package is folded back to the package, and the trapezoidal piece 12D or the triangular piece is folded and bonded. Part.
Sealing of the sealing part 12S can bond each trapezoid piece etc. using a suitable thing from known adhesives, but if a resin film sheet is used as a sheet material, It is desirable to perform a fusing process such as fusing or ultrasonic fusing. Therefore, a preferred form of the package is a form in which the sealing part is heat-sealed or ultrasonically-fused and has a fused part 14 by them.

On the other hand, this package 10 has a strip-shaped handle portion 13 whose both ends are bonded to the sheet material 12 at the sealing portions 12S and 12S. The adhesive part is particularly preferably the end of the end face row.
The handle portion 13 is not adhered to the sheet material with respect to the peripheral surface portion. Moreover, this handle part 13 is distribute | arranged so that it may extend in the end surface row | line | column 10S extension direction from one sealing part 12S, and may reach the other sealing part 12S along the roll paper peripheral surface 11S. Therefore, the portion along the peripheral surface is substantially perpendicular to the end surface row extending direction.
When the structure of the handle portion 13 of the package 10 is adopted, the peripheral surface of the roll paper 11 can be obtained without destroying the arrangement of the roll paper 11 in combination with the advantage of the caramel packaging in which the package is tightly coated compared to the gusset packaging. The package 10 can be carried with the adherend portion along the line.

On the other hand, as the material of the handle portion 13, various strip-shaped tape materials such as a resin film tape and a paper tape are used. In particular, a resin film tape having some elasticity is particularly suitable. When the tape is gripped, there is a gap between the roll peripheral surface and the portability is improved.
Specific examples of the resin film tape include cellophane tape, polystyrene film tape, polyethylene film tape, vinyl tape, polypropylene film tape and the like. Furthermore, in the case of a resin film sheet, it is preferable to use a color different from that of the sheet material so that it is easy to visually recognize that it is a handle part.
The width of the tape material is preferably set to 30 to 80 mm in consideration of adhesion to the sealing portion at the end, securing of adhesive strength, and ease of gripping. Particularly, 40 to 60 mm is preferable.

Adhesion to the sealing portion 12S at the tape end portion 13T is preferably performed by heat fusion or ultrasonic fusion treatment if the tape material is a resin film tape in addition to adhesion by an adhesive. .
In particular, if the sheet material is a resin film sheet, it is strong to fuse and integrate the tape material and the sheet material at the same time when the sealing portion of the film sheet is fused. It is desirable from the aspect.
Particularly preferably, although not shown in the figure, it is preferable to perform the fusion treatment in a state where a tape material is sandwiched between a pair of trapezoidal pieces 12D or triangular pieces constituting the sealing portion 12S.
Therefore, the packaging body 10 preferably has a form in which the sealing portion 12S and the handle portion 13 are fused and bonded, and in particular, the handle portion between a pair of trapezoidal pieces or triangular pieces constituting the sealing portion. A form in which the trapezoidal piece and the tape material are integrally fused in a state where the end portions of the tape material constituting the film are sandwiched is particularly preferable.

On the other hand, in the present package 10, a character string that is visible and has meaning is arranged as a pattern on the surface on which the peripheral surfaces of the sheet material are arranged. Specific examples of the character string include a product name and a feature notation of roll paper. In the illustrated example, a character string “TOILET6” is arranged.
Instead of the character string or a design string in which a pattern is arranged together with the character string can be arranged.
These design pattern strings or character strings are located at the top of the handle, so that they can be recognized effectively both when gripping the handle and carrying it or when displaying it on a product shelf. It is.

For example, as shown in FIG. 2, the package described above can be taken out from the display shelf by the purchaser when the end surface row 10S side is placed up and down and the handle 13 is placed on the display shelf T. It is easy to display and takes up compact space.
In addition, caramel packaging makes it possible to produce at low cost.
Further, the handle portion 13 can be carried and the sealing portion is located on the flat end surface row side, and the handle portion end portion is bonded thereto, so that the strength of the handle portion 13 is sufficient. .
