Patent number: 8434622Abstract: [Object] To protect a large-sized article or a large number of articles from impacts and vibrations applied thereto during transportation. [Solution Means] An article packaging unit includes a combination of an outer box 1 and a packaging mat 2. The outer box 1 is an openable and closable container for storing articles, and has a cushion 4 for supporting an article P inside. The packaging mat 2 is formed by filling cushioning bodies in an airtight bag, and attached to an inner lid 3 attached to the outer box 1. When the inside of the packaging mat 2 is deaerated, the cushioning bodies increase the filling density, solidify the packaging mat 2, and come into close contact with the surface of an article P stored in the outer box 1 and hold the article P at a fixed position.Type: GrantFiled: March 19, 2010Date of Patent: May 7, 2013Assignee: Yamato Packing Technology Institute Co., Ltd.Inventor: Kouichi Kasiwabara

Publication number: 20120187015Abstract: [Object] To avoid uneven distribution of cushion beads filled as a buffer layer. [Solution Means] A packing mat includes an outer bag 1, an inner bag 2, and cushion beads 3. The outer bag 1 is an airtight bag, and has a check valve that opens when a suction force is applied when deaerating the inside of the outer bag, and after the deaeration, closes to block introduction of the outside air into the outer bag. The inner bag 2 is a stretchable air-permeable bag, and has junction points 5 at which the upper and lower sheet surfaces are joined integrally in minute ranges at regular intervals across the entire upper and lower sheet surfaces of the inner bag 2. The cushion beads 3 are granular bodies having shock-absorbing characteristics, and a fixed amount of the cushion beads are filled in the inner bag 2 and substantially confined in sections each of which connects several junction points 5.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 4, 2010Publication date: July 26, 2012Applicant: YAMATO PACKING TECHNOLOGY INSTITUTE CO., LTD.Inventors: Kouichi Kasiwabara, Jyunya Izumi, Masahiro Saika

Patent number: 8016112Abstract: To stably hold and pack a thin card-shaped article. A packing implement for article transportation includes a board 1 and a holding sheet 2. The board 1 is sectioned into a base 3 and a cover 4, and the cover 4 has a window hole 5, and the holding sheet 2 is stuck over the window hole 5. On the base 3, an article M is placed, and the cover 4 is folded double over the article, and further, the base 3 and the cover 4 are folded integrally along opening edges of the window hole 5 to build up a three-dimensional packing implement. By folding the base 3 and the cover 4, the holding sheet 2 facing the inside of the window hole 5 is tensioned, and the article M is pressed down by the holding sheet 2 and held at a fixed position on the base 3. The packing implement 8 packing the article M is housed as it is in an outer case 9.Type: GrantFiled: June 13, 2008Date of Patent: September 13, 2011Assignee: Yamato Packing Technology Institute Co., Ltd.Inventor: Kouichi Kasiwabara

Publication number: 20110168764Abstract: [Object] To reduce the trouble of packing an article the repair of which a customer is going to request. [Solution Means] A mat 1, an outer layer sheet 2, and cushioning bodies 4 are combined. The mat 1 is an airtight square-shaped sheet, and is sealed airtightly and laminated on and integrated with the outer layer sheet 2 to form a packing region Wa. The packing region Wa sandwiches an articles M and is folded in two, and a flap 5 of the outer layer sheet 2 formed on an extension portion of the packing region serves as an extension portion Wc that closes a gap of the folded portion of the mat 1. When the air in the mat 1 is evacuated and the capacity of the bag body is reduced, the cushioning bodies 4 fit the shape of the article packed in the mat 1 and increase the filling density, and are brought into close contact with the surface of the article M.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 29, 2009Publication date: July 14, 2011Inventor: Kouichi Kasiwabara

Publication number: 20110079533Abstract: [Problem] To hold in a fixed position and pack two or more articles of different shapes made of different materials. [Solution Means] Two or more articles having different shapes are packed by using a mat 1 filled with a large number of beads 4 evenly over the entire surface. Two or more articles are wrapped in the mat 1, the inside of the mat 1 is deaerated, the large number of beads 4 in the mat 1 gather and are brought into close contact with each other, the mat 1 solidifies along the outer diameter shapes of the articles, and each article is supported at, at least three points by portions of the solidified mat 1 so that the respective articles are held at fixed positions.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 8, 2008Publication date: April 7, 2011Inventor: Kouichi Kasiwabara

Patent number: 7770734Abstract: To provide a packing implement for goods transportation that facilitates packing in the transportation of the goods and is a combination of a baseboard and a holding sheet. The baseboard is a rectangular board for supporting an article to be transported at a fixed position, and has rising parts, falling parts and shape retaining parts. The rising parts are folded back upward from both end edges of a short side of the baseboard, the falling parts are folded back downward from both side edges of a long side of the baseboard, respectively, the falling part is constituted by a leg part orthogonal to the baseboard and a bottom part which is bent parallel with the baseboard, and a buffer space corresponding to a rising height of the leg part of the falling part is formed by the leg part bent so as to be orthogonal to the baseboard and the bottom part bent parallel with the baseboard.Type: GrantFiled: March 8, 2006Date of Patent: August 10, 2010Assignee: Yamato Packing Technology Institute Co., Ltd.Inventors: Takeshi Saitou, Hisae Saitou, legal representative, Miho Ohno, legal representative, Kumi Suzuki, legal representative, Rie Kawasaki, legal representative, Kouichi Kasiwabara
