Packaging arrangement and packaging method

Abstract

This present invention discloses a packaging arrangement including: a sheet bundle stacked body formed by stacking, in the thickness direction, one or multiple sheet bundle(s) in which sheet-like materials are stacked in the thickness direction and bound with a sheet binding part; a mounting base on which the sheet bundle stacked body is to be mounted; an end plate located on an opposite side to the mounting base across the sheet bundle stacked body; and a restricting part for restricting the sheet bundle stacked body such that the sheet bundle stacked body is sandwiched by the mounting base and the end plate. This packaging arrangement can prevent any qualitative fault due to an impact during transportation, handling or loading to a setter of an automatic platemaker.

       3 . The packaging arrangement of  claim 1 , wherein the sheet bundle is mounted on the mounting base in a substantially vertical direction. 
   
   
       4 . The packaging arrangement of  claim 1 , wherein protective thick papers for protecting the sheet-like materials are overlaid on both faces in the thickness direction of the sheet bundle. 
   
   
       5 . The packaging arrangement of  claim 1 , wherein the sheet bundle is bound at its sides with adhesive tape. 
   
   
       6 . The packaging arrangement of  claim 1 , wherein the sheet bundle is bound on two pairs of opposing faces with a binding member. 
   
   
       7 . The packaging arrangement of  claim 1 , wherein the sheet bundle is bound on all six faces thereof with a binding member. 
   
   
       8 . The packaging arrangement of  claim 1 , wherein the sheet-like materials are stacked with inserting papers therebetween in the sheet bundle. 
   
   
       9 . The packaging arrangement of  claim 1 , wherein the sheet-like materials are stacked without inserting papers in the sheet bundle. 
   
   
       10 . The packaging arrangement of  claim 1  wherein the sheet bundle is packaged with light shielding, moisture proof inner-wrapping material. 
   
   
       11 . The packaging arrangement of  claim 1 , wherein the clamping part is a belt. 
   
   
       12 . The packaging arrangement of  claim 2 , wherein the restricting part is a belt. 
   
   
       13 . The packaging arrangement of  claim 12 , wherein the mounting base is provided with a belt receiver through which the belt is to be inserted, and the belt is wound around from the end plate to the mounting base, passed thought the belt receiver and wound around to the end plate. 
   
   
       14 . The packaging arrangement of  claim 12 , wherein at least one convex portion for catching the belt is provided at the end plate on a face opposite to a face in contact with the sheet bundle stacked body. 
   
   
       15 . The packaging arrangement of  claim 14 , wherein the convex portion has a belt holding part for holding the belt such that the belt does not slide in a width direction thereof. 
   
   
       16 . The packaging arrangement of  claim 13 , wherein the convex portion is detachable. 
   
   
       17 . The packaging arrangement of  claim 13 , wherein the convex portion is structured by a combination of a plurality of blocks. 
   
   
       18 . The packaging arrangement of  claim 1 , wherein a foamed member is inserted between the sheet bundle and the clamping part. 
   
   
       19 . The packaging arrangement of  claim 1 , wherein an air bag is inserted between the sheet bundle and the clamping part. 
   
   
       20 . The packaging arrangement of  claim 1 , further comprising a covering sheet that is a flexible airtight cover for covering the sheet bundle stacked body and the end plate, or the sheet bundle in an airtight condition, wherein a space between the covering sheet and the mounting base is maintained at a lower pressure than the atmospheric pressure. 
   
   
       21 . The packaging arrangement of  claim 1 , wherein the sheet bundle stacked body is covered with light shielding, moisture proof outer-wrapping material. 
   
   
       22 . A packaging arrangement comprising:
 sheet-like materials stacked in a thickness direction thereof;   a mounting base on which the sheet-like materials are to be mounted;   an end plate located on an opposite side of the sheet-like materials from the mounting base; and   a belt for tightly binding the end plate and the sheet-like materials to the mounting base,   wherein the mounting base is provided with a belt receiver through which the belt is to be inserted, and the belt is wound around from the end plate to the mounting base, passed through the belt receiver and wound around to the end plate.   
   
   
       23 . The packaging arrangement of  claim 22 , wherein the sheet-like materials are covered with light shielding, moisture proof outer-wrapping material. 
   
   
       24 . The packaging arrangement of  claim 2 , wherein the sheet bundle, the sheet bundle stacked body or the sheet-like materials are mounted on the mounting base through a shock absorbing material. 
   
   
       25 . The packaging arrangement of  claim 2 , wherein the sheet-like materials are planographic printing plates. 
   
   
       26 . A packaging method comprising a step of binding sheet-like materials in units of sheet bundles in which the sheet-like materials are stacked in a thickness direction thereof. 
   
   
       27 . The packaging method of  claim 26 , wherein the sheet-like materials are planographic printing plates. 
   
   
       28 . The packaging arrangement of  claim 14 , wherein the convex portion is provided in the vicinity of a lower side of the end plate.
