As a result, it is confirmed that the contents (for example, the toner cartridge 500) are not changed.
- With reference to
FIGS. 4A and 4B , description will be given to a specific example of the structures of the first cut portion C1 and the second cut portion C2 according to the embodiment. -
FIG. 4A shows an example of the structure of the first cut portion C1 formed on thecover portion 105. - The first cut portion C1 has two
first cuts second cut 201 which is formed in such a direction as to intersect with the peeling direction (the upward direction A or the downward direction B) and comes in contact with thefirst cuts - It is preferable to form the
second cut 201 of the first cut portion C1 along thefold 106 of the cover portion 105 (seeFIG. 1 ). - Consequently, in the case in which the sealing tape T is peeled in the downward direction B, particularly, the surface of the
cover portion 105 is peeled more easily by the adhesive surface of the sealing tape T along thefirst cuts second cut 201 of the first cut portion C1 set to be a starting point. Thus, a peeling trace can easily be left. - Also in the case in which the sealing tape T is peeled in the downward direction B, the surface is easily peeled with the
second cut 201 of the first cut portion C1 set to be the starting point. Thus, the peeling trace can easily be left. -
FIG. 4B shows an example of the structure of the second cut portion C2 formed on thefront portion 103. - The second cut portion C2 has two
first cuts second cut 301 which is formed in such a direction as to intersect with the peeling direction (the upward direction A or the downward direction B) and comes in contact with thefirst cuts - In the case in which the sealing tape T is peeled in the upward direction A or the downward direction B, consequently, the surface of the
cover portion 105 is peeled more easily by the adhesive surface of the sealing tape T along thefirst cuts second cut 301 of the first cut portion C2 set to be a starting point. Thus, the peeling trace can easily be left. - It is preferable that the second cut portion C2 should be formed around the
notch portion 107 and the sealing tape T should be put across thecover portion 105 and thefront portion 103 to cover the first cut portion C1, the second cut portion C2 and thenotch portion 107. - Even if the adhesiveness of the sealing tape T is poorer as compared with the case in which the
notch portion 107 is not provided, consequently, the peeling trace can easily be left by the presence of the first cut portion C1 and the second cut portion C2. - Moreover, the second cut portion C2 may be formed in a position shifted from an extension of a position in which the first cut portion C1 is formed in the
cover portion 105 in a state in which the upper end opening is closed with thecover portion 105 and the insertingpiece 105 a is inserted along the inside of thefront portion 103. In other words, along a direction of thefold 106 in thecover portion 105, a position where the second cut portion C2 is projected on to the fold is different from a position in which the first cut portion C1 is projected on to the fold. - Consequently, the surface of the
cover portion 105 or thefront portion 103 can be peeled more easily by the adhesive surface of the sealing tape T. Thus, the peeling trace can be left more readily. - Moreover, each of the first cut portion C1 and the second cut portion C2 may be formed to penetrate through the
cover portion 105 and thefront portion 103. - Furthermore, each of the first cut portion C1 and the second cut portion C2 may be formed as a cut terminated in a middle in a vertical direction from the surfaces of the
cover portion 105 and thefront portion 103. - According to the embodiment, thus, the peeling trace can easily be left so that the contents can effectively be prevented from being changed or altered even if the adhesive strength of the adhesive surface of the sealing tape T is reduced more greatly than that in the conventional art.
- By reducing the adhesive strength of the adhesive surface of the sealing tape T more greatly than that in the conventional art, moreover, it is possible to peel the sealing tape T more easily. Thus, a convenience of a user can be enhanced.
- The first and second cut portions C1 and C2 shown in
FIGS. 4A and 4B are only examples of the structure and are not restricted thereto but other examples A to K of the structure can be proposed as shown inFIGS. 5A to 5K . - In other words, the first cut portion C1 and the second cut portion C2 may take any configuration if there is satisfied a condition that they have at least two
first cuts 200 and at least twofirst cuts 300 which are formed in a direction (for example, an almost parallel direction) along the peeling direction for the sealing tape T (the upward direction A or the downward direction B) and at least onesecond cut 201 and at least onesecond cut 301 which are formed in such a direction (for example, an almost orthogonal direction) as to intersect with the peeling direction (the upward direction A or the downward direction B) and come in contact with or intersect with thefirst cuts - Next, an example of a peeling state brought by the first cut portion C1 will be described with reference to
FIGS. 6A to 6C . - In the example, as shown in
FIG. 6A , it is assumed that a user starts to peel the sealing tape T having the adhesive surface from the lower side to the upper side (the A direction) illustrated inFIG. 3 in a state in which the sealing tape T is put across thecover portion 105 and thefront portion 103 to cover the first cut portion C1 and thenotch portion 107. - When the peeling of the sealing tape T in the A direction is advanced so that the end of the adhesive surface of the sealing tape T reaches the
second cut 201 formed along thefold 106 in the first cut portion C1, subsequently, the peeling from the surface of thecover portion 105 is started with thesecond cut 201 set to be a starting point. - When the peeling of the sealing tape T in the A direction is advanced, furthermore, it proceeds along the
first cuts cover portion 105 in the first cut portion C1 so that a peelingtrace 600 is formed. - Even if the adhesiveness of the sealing tape T is poorer than that in the case in which the
notch portion 107 is not provided, thus, the peeling trace can easily be left because the first cut portion C1 is provided. - In some cases in which the sealing tape T is to be peeled from the upper side to the lower side (the B direction) as illustrated in
FIG. 3 , the peeling from the surface is started at the first cut portion C1, which is not shown. In some cases in which the adhesion of the sealing tape T to thecover portion 105 is excellent, however, the peeling from the surface is started before the first cut portion C1 is reached. - In addition, it is also possible to form, as the first cut portion C1, the same cut portion as the second cut portion C2.
- Moreover, it is also possible to use any of the cutting shapes in
FIGS. 5A to 5K as the first cut portion C1. - Next, an example of a peeling state brought by the second cut portion C2 will be described with reference to
FIGS. 7A to 7C . - In the example, as shown in
FIG. 7A , it is assumed that the user starts to peel the sealing tape T having the adhesive surface from the lower side to the upper side (the A direction) or from the upper side to the lower side (the B direction) as illustrated inFIG. 3 in a state in which the sealing tape T is put on thefront portion 103 to cover the second cut portion C2. - When the peeling of the sealing tape T in the A direction (the B direction) is advanced so that the end of the adhesive surface of the sealing tape T reaches the
second cut 301 in the second cut portion C2, subsequently, the peeling from the surface of thefront portion 103 is started with thesecond cut 301 set to be a starting point. - When the peeling of the sealing tape T in the A direction (the B direction) is advanced, furthermore, it proceeds along the
second cuts front portion 103 in the second cut portion C2 so that the peelingtrace 600 is formed. - Also in the case in which the adhesive strength of the adhesive surface of the sealing tape T is reduced more greatly than that in the conventional art, thus, the peeling trace can easily be left so that the contents can effectively be prevented from being changed or altered.
- Although the invention made by the inventor has been specifically described above based on the embodiment, it is to be considered that the embodiment disclosed in the specification is illustrative in all respects and is not restricted to the disclosed technique. In other words, the technical range of the invention should not be construed to be restrictive based on the explanation in the embodiment but should be construed in accordance with only the description of the claims, and equivalents to the technique described in the claims and all changes in the claims are contained.
- For example, it is not necessary to always apply a clear varnish or a surface protecting agent for transparent printing to a surface around the first cut portion C1 and the second cut portion C2.
- Consequently, the adhesive on the adhesive surface of the sealing tape T can easily penetrate into a part around the first cut portion C1 and the second cut portion C2. Thus, the peeling trace can be left more readily.
- The packing box according to the invention can be applied to packing or packaging for a toner cartridge of a printer or a composite machine.
- The foregoing description of the exemplary embodiments of the present invention has been provided for the purposes of illustration and description. It is not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the invention to the precise forms disclosed. Obviously, many modifications and variations will be apparent to practitioners skilled in the art. The embodiments were chosen and described in order to best explain the principles of the invention and its practical applications, thereby enabling others skilled in the art to understand the invention for various embodiments and with the various modifications as are suited to the particular use contemplated. It is intended that the scope of the invention be defined by the following claims and their equivalents.
