Honeycomb structure package

Abstract

There is disclosed a package which does not have a very large package height even when containing products, whereby the deterioration of a transport efficiency can be prevented, and which can realize stacking in a large number of stages while avoiding the damage of honeycomb structures. The honeycomb structure package includes a plate base, a receiving member which is disposed on the base to support the side surface portions of honeycomb structures, and a rectangular parallelepiped box member constituted of five rigid panels which surround the lower surfaces and side surfaces of the base and the receiving member.

1 . A honeycomb structure package including:
 a plate base;   a receiving member which is disposed on the base to support the side surface portions of honeycomb structures; and   a rectangular parallelepiped box member constituted of five rigid panels which surround the lower surfaces and side surfaces of the base and the receiving member.   
   
   
       2 . The honeycomb structure package according to  claim 1 , wherein the box member has, on the lower surface thereof, a connecting member having a shape complementary to that of a space formed by the upper ends of the side surfaces of the box member, whereby a plurality of box members are stacked. 
   
   
       3 . The honeycomb structure package according to  claim 2 , wherein at least one of the side surfaces of the box member is openable while an opening in the upper part of the box member is closed. 
   
   
       4 . The honeycomb structure package according to  claim 1 , wherein the receiving member has a receiving portion having a shape complementary to that of the side surface portion of each honeycomb structure, and equally supports the side surface portions of the honeycomb structures from the downside thereof. 
   
   
       5 . The honeycomb structure package according to  claim 2 , wherein the receiving member has a receiving portion having a shape complementary to that of the side surface portion of each honeycomb structure, and equally supports the side surface portions of the honeycomb structures from the downside thereof. 
   
   
       6 . The honeycomb structure package according to  claim 3 , wherein the receiving member has a receiving portion having a shape complementary to that of the side surface portion of each honeycomb structure, and equally supports the side surface portions of the honeycomb structures from the downside thereof. 
   
   
       7 . The honeycomb structure package according to  claim 1 , wherein the receiving members are disposed on both the surfaces of the plate base. 
   
   
       8 . The honeycomb structure package according to  claim 2 , wherein the receiving members are disposed on both the surfaces of the plate base. 
   
   
       9 . The honeycomb structure package according to  claim 3 , wherein the receiving members are disposed on both the surfaces of the plate base. 
   
   
       10 . The honeycomb structure package according to  claim 4 , wherein the receiving members are disposed on both the surfaces of the plate base. 
   
   
       11 . The honeycomb structure package according to  claim 5 , wherein the receiving members are disposed on both the surfaces of the plate base. 
   
   
       12 . The honeycomb structure package according to  claim 6 , wherein the receiving members are disposed on both the surfaces of the plate base.
