Abstract

A packaging container includes an outer container having a containing space and a passage opening, and a packaging bag for containing an object. The packaging bag includes a containing portion, an opening portion, and a handle portion. The handle portion includes strip-like members each connected to the containing portion at two connection portions. The handle portion has a length equal to or larger than half a length of the object along the passage opening when the handle portion is extended in a direction along the passage opening. When the handle portion is extended in a direction through the passage opening, the handle portion has a length with which the handle portion is allowed to protrude away from a surface of the object adjacent to the passage opening toward the passage opening and the connection portions are located at positions separated away from the surface toward the passage opening.

Claims (34)

1. A packaging container for containing an object comprising:

an outer container having a containing space capable of containing the object therein and a passage opening capable of allowing the object to pass therethrough; and

a packaging bag contained in the outer container, and the packaging bag includes:

a containing portion capable of containing the object,

an opening portion formed in the containing portion capable of allowing the object to pass therethrough, and

a handle portion graspable by a user,

wherein the handle portion includes a plurality of first strips each having ends connected to the containing portion at two connection portions that are separated from each other on an edge of the opening portion,

wherein the handle portion has a length with which the handle portion is allowed to protrude away from a surface of an object adjacent to the passage opening toward the passage opening when the packaging bag containing the object is contained in the outer container and the handle portion is extended in a direction through the passage opening,

wherein the handle portion has a length equal to or larger than half a length of the object along the passage opening when the packaging bag containing the object is contained in the outer container and the handle portion is extended in a direction along the passage opening,

wherein the connection portions at which the handle portion is connected to the containing portion are located at positions separated away from the surface of the object adjacent to the passage opening toward the passage opening when the packaging bag containing the object is contained in the outer container and the handle portion is extended in the direction through the passage opening, and

wherein, when the passage opening of the outer container is closed, the handle portion is contained in the outer container in a state in which the handle portion extends in the direction along the passage opening such that ends of the handle portion overlap in a vertical direction.

2. The packaging container according to claim 1 ,

wherein the connection portions at which the handle portion is connected to the containing portion are disposed further inward than an outer end of the object with respect to the direction in which the handle portion extends, and in a state in which the handle portion extends in the direction along the passage opening, an excess portion of the containing portion is located outside a portion of the containing portion extending along an outer surface of the object.

3. The packaging container according to claim 1 ,

wherein, when the plurality of first strips of the handle portion are grasped together, the excess portion of the containing portion is folded into a second strip so as to extend along an extension line of the handle portion and along the outer surface of the object.

4. The packaging container according to claim 2 ,

wherein, when the plurality of first strips of the handle portion are grasped together, the excess portion of the containing portion is folded into a second strip so as to extend along an extension line of the handle portion and along the outer surface of the object.

5. The packaging container according to claim 3 ,

wherein a distance between the plurality of first strips of the handle portion is larger than a distance between the connection portions at which the handle portion is connected to the containing portion.

6. The packaging container according to claim 4 ,

wherein a distance between the plurality of first strips of the handle portion is larger than a distance between the connection portions at which the handle portion is connected to the containing portion.

7. The packaging container according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a cushioning member disposed in the packaging bag and between the object and the outer container with the packaging bag therebetween, the cushioning member absorbing a shock.

8. The packaging container according to claim 2 , further comprising:

a cushioning member disposed in the packaging bag and between the object and the outer container with the packaging bag therebetween, the cushioning member absorbing a shock.

9. The packaging container according to claim 3 , further comprising:

a cushioning member disposed in the packaging bag and between the object and the outer container with the packaging bag therebetween, the cushioning member absorbing a shock.

10. The packaging container according to claim 4 , further comprising:

a cushioning member disposed in the packaging bag and between the object and the outer container with the packaging bag therebetween, the cushioning member absorbing a shock.

11. The packaging container according to claim 5 , further comprising:

a cushioning member disposed in the packaging bag and between the object and the outer container with the packaging bag therebetween, the cushioning member absorbing a shock.

12. The packaging container according to claim 6 , further comprising:
