Abstract

Provided is a package body for ceramic separation membranes, comprising: a packaging box which stores a plurality of ceramic separation membranes in parallel in a width direction and a height direction; and a plurality of partition packs, wherein each of the partition packs has a thickness equal to or larger than a thickness of each of the ceramic separation membranes, and has a plurality of storing parts, with intervals therebetween in the width direction, which are through holes of a size including a projection shape of the ceramic separation membrane, and the packaging box stores at least two kinds of the partition packs stacked in the height direction with the plurality of storing parts arranged in the width direction in a staggered manner.

Claims (17)

1. A package body for ceramic separation membranes, comprising:

a packaging box which stores a plurality of ceramic separation membranes in parallel in a width direction and a height direction; and

at least first and second partition packs, wherein

each of the first and second partition packs has a thickness equal to or larger than a thickness of each of the ceramic separation membranes, and has a plurality of storing parts, with intervals therebetween in the width direction, which are rectangular through holes of a simple-shaped projection shape of the ceramic separation membrane and penetrating from the upper surface to the bottom surface of the partition packs, and the packaging box stores the at least first and second partition packs stacked in the height direction with the plurality of storing parts arranged in the width direction in a staggered manner,

the ceramic separation membrane is a cylindrical separation membrane having a diameter of D, and each of the intervals between the plurality of storing parts arranged substantially parallel to the width direction is D/2 or more and D or less, and

the partition packs are disposed stacked vertically, in which a lower end of the storing parts of the partition packs in an upper position is at a higher position than an upper end of the storing parts of the partition packs in a lower position,

wherein n is the number of storing parts of the first partition pack placed at a bottom of the packaging box, and n−1 is the number of storing parts of the second partition pack placed on the first partition pack,

wherein center lines of the storing parts of the first partition pack and center lines of the storing parts of the second partition pack are arranged at substantially equal spacing in the width direction,

wherein center lines of the intervals of the first partition pack and center lines of the intervals of the second partition pack are arranged at substantially equal spacing in the width direction, and

wherein the center lines of the storing parts in the first partition pack are arranged to align with the center lines of the intervals of the second partition pack between the storage parts of the second partition pack such that openings of the rectangular through holes in the first partition pack overlap with openings of the rectangular through holes in the second partition pack along a longitudinal direction.

2. The package body for ceramic separation membranes according to claim 1 , wherein the first partition pack is placed at an odd-numbered stage and the second partition pack is placed at an even-numbered stage counted from the bottom of the packaging box.

3. A packaged item comprising: a plurality of ceramic separation membranes stored in the package body for ceramic separation membranes according to claim 1 , wherein the ceramic separation membranes adjacent in the width direction and the height direction are arranged to avoid contact with each other.

4. The package item according to claim 3 , wherein the first partition pack is placed at an odd-numbered stage and the second partition pack is placed at an even-numbered stage counted from the bottom of the packaging box.

5. The package body for ceramic separation membranes according to claim 1 , wherein, the ceramic separation membranes have a maximum diameter portion and a width of the through holes in the width direction is formed to be a size that is equal to or larger than the diameter of the maximum diameter portion of the ceramic separation membranes.

6. The package body for ceramic separation membranes according to claim 1 , wherein the partition packs are made of corrugated fiberboard.

7. The package body for ceramic separation membranes according to claim 5 , wherein the partition packs are made of corrugated fiberboard.

8. A packaged item comprising: a plurality of ceramic separation membranes stored in the package body for ceramic separation membranes according to claim 5 , wherein the ceramic separation membranes adjacent in the width direction and the height direction are arranged to avoid contact with each other.
