  Patent Document 1 describes a configuration of a transport box (accommodation box) for storing and transporting articles. However, the conventional shipping box including the shipping box of Patent Document 1 is for packing the main body and accessories of the article (terminal) and transporting the article to the side where the article is to be used. No special consideration is given to transportation.

  In this way, if it is a shipping box that only transports goods, it is sufficient that the goods transporter on the side that transports the goods is responsible for packaging and transporting the goods to the customer on the side that uses the goods. Absent. However, if an article transporter, for example, a renting management company, delivers goods to the customer once, and the customer becomes used, the customer is asked to pack and transport the used goods. No consideration has been given to the case where goods are returned to the management company (collection of goods as viewed from the management company) via a trader (transporter).

  In such a case, the customer side (the side that returns the item) will pack the item once delivered from the management company side (the side that collects the item) and store it in the recovery box (transport box) for return. If there is no particular problem. However, for customers who return the goods in the shipping box, it is likely that the date has passed since the goods were rented, especially if there are unused accessories for the accessories. It can be seen that the existence is forgotten, lost or discarded. In such a case, various problems occur between the customer side, the carrier side, and the management company side.

  For example, when the customer returns the item, he / she has forgotten the presence of the accessory, and even if he / she intends to pack the item and store it in the shipping box, he / she unpacks the box on the collecting side. For the first time, you may notice missing parts of accessories.

  And since there is a time difference between the packing and unpacking of both, it becomes ambiguous which side had the problem, and the trouble of the responsibility problem for shortage of accessories etc. between the returning side and the collecting side Has occurred frequently. Even more so, if there is a carrier between them.

  One reason for this is that on the return side, there are accessories that are not used even though there are multiple accessories, and this is not possible due to forgotten, lost, or damaged storage locations of the unused accessories. It may be possible to dispose of the product as an article, and the location becomes unclear, resulting in a situation where it cannot be packed.

  In other words, since the conventional transport box does not consider the configuration of the transport box including the packaging that enables the rental article to be correctly collected at the time of the collection of the article, for example, there is the following problem .

There is a large work load, such as work beyond the original logistics company task, that is, packing work at the logistics company when collecting goods, confirmation of goods damage or loss, and checking.
(1) The storage and storage method of accessory parts by the customer is not clear, and accessory storage is messy. (2) In the case of missing items due to storage leakage, the shipping company and management company will incur compensation for lost parts. (3) Being pointed out that the main body and accessories may be damaged during transportation
