[0024] To explain in detail the technical content, objectives, and effects of the present invention, the following description is provided in conjunction with the embodiments and accompanying drawings.
[0025] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 A packaging box includes a first structural member 1 and a second structural member 2. The first structural member 1 and / or the second structural member 2 are provided with a storage area 3. One side of the first structural member 1 is rotatably connected to the second structural member 2. The other side of the first structural member 1 is provided with a locking groove 11. The second structural member 2 is slidably provided with a locking piece 4 that cooperates with the locking groove 11. The locking piece 4 is provided with an information area 41. When the locking piece 4 slides relative to the second structural member 2 to one end of its travel, the second structural member 2 covers at least a portion of the information area 41. When the locking piece 4 slides relative to the second structural member 2 to another end of its travel, the entire area of the information area 41 on the second structural member 2 is exposed to the second structural member 2.
[0026] As can be seen from the above description, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the packaging box maintains a closed state through the cooperation of the locking piece 4 and the locking groove 11; the locking piece 4 is slidably arranged and has an information area 41 for recording information, wherein the information in the information area 41 can be covered by the second structural member 2, thereby achieving information concealment, ensuring the display effect of the product displayed in the packaging box, and at the same time, reducing the risk of information leakage to a certain extent, allowing the packaging box to play the functions of anti-counterfeiting and product traceability.
[0027] This packaging box eliminates the need for magnets, saving on magnet purchase costs and thus reducing manufacturing costs. All components can be made of paper, eliminating the need to remove magnets when the box is no longer needed, greatly simplifying recycling and enabling efficient recycling and reuse.
[0028] Furthermore, the information area 41 is provided with at least one of the following: QR code, barcode, characters, and symbols.
[0029] As can be seen from the above description, the information area 41 is used to record information, and the information can be expressed in various forms, which can be selected as needed.
[0030] Furthermore, when the first structural member 1 and the second structural member 2 are in a closed state, at least one wall of the locking groove 11 is in contact with the locking piece 4.
[0031] As can be seen from the above description, when the first structural member 1 and the second structural member 2 are in a closed state, the locking groove 11 and the locking piece 4 can maintain surface contact, and a certain static friction force is formed between them, which reduces the risk of the packaging box being opened accidentally. This allows the combination of the locking piece 4 and the locking groove 11 to better maintain the first structural member 1 and the second structural member 2 in a closed state.
[0032] Furthermore, the locking piece 4 has an insertion portion 43 for inserting into the locking groove 11, the width of the end of the insertion portion 43 away from the second structural member 2 is smaller than the width of the other end of the insertion portion 43.
[0033] As can be seen from the above description, the insertion part 43 adopts a structure that is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, which allows the insertion part 43 to be inserted into the lock groove 11 more smoothly, thus enhancing the user experience.
[0034] Furthermore, the second structural member 2 is provided with a mounting groove 27, a portion of the locking piece 4 is accommodated in the mounting groove 27, and at least one wall of the mounting groove 27 is in contact with the locking piece 4.
[0035] As can be seen from the above description, the locking groove 11 and the locking piece 4 can maintain surface contact, thereby forming a certain static friction force, so that the locking piece 4 and the second structural member 2 can maintain a certain relative positional relationship, avoiding the locking piece 4 from sliding unexpectedly relative to the second structural member 2, which would cause the information area 41 of the locking piece 4 to be unexpectedly exposed or hidden.
[0036] Furthermore, the opening of the mounting groove 27 is provided with an inwardly extending blocking part 28, and the locking piece 4 is provided with a limiting part 44 for cooperating with the blocking part 28.
[0037] As can be seen from the above description, the cooperation between the blocking part 28 and the limiting part 44 can prevent the locking piece 4 from accidentally dislodging from the mounting groove 27, resulting in the loss of the locking piece 4, which helps to ensure the structural stability of the packaging box.
[0038] Furthermore, the first structural member 1 is shell-shaped and includes a first front plate 12, a first left side plate 13, a first right side plate 14, a first rear plate 15, and a top plate 16. The first front plate 12 is connected to the top plate 16, the first left side plate 13, and the first right side plate 14, respectively. The first rear plate 15 is connected to the top plate 16, the first left side plate 13, and the second right side plate 23, respectively. The first rear plate 15 is rotatably connected to the second structural member 2.
[0039] Furthermore, the locking groove 11 is provided on the first front plate 12.
[0040] Furthermore, the first structural member 1 is provided with a first inner liner 17, which is located in the area enclosed by the first front plate 12, the first left side plate 13, the first right side plate 14, the first rear plate 15 and the top plate 16, and the locking groove 11 is located at the boundary between the first inner liner 17 and the first front plate 12.
[0041] Furthermore, the locking groove 11 is provided on the first front plate 12 and / or the first inner liner 17.
[0042] As can be seen from the above description, there are multiple ways to set the lock slot 11, which can be selected as needed.
[0043] Example 1
[0044] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 One embodiment of the present invention is a packaging box that can be used to package beverages, cosmetics, watches, jewelry or other items.
[0045] The packaging box includes a first structural member 1 and a second structural member 2. The first structural member 1 and / or the second structural member 2 are provided with a storage area 3. One side of the first structural member 1 is rotatably connected to the second structural member 2, and the other side of the first structural member 1 is provided with a locking groove 11. The second structural member 2 is slidably provided with a locking piece 4 that cooperates with the locking groove 11. The locking piece 4 is provided with an information area 41. When the locking piece 4 slides relative to the second structural member 2 to one end of its travel, the second structural member 2 covers at least a portion of the information area 41. When the locking piece 4 slides relative to the second structural member 2 to the other end of its travel, the entire area of the information area 41 on the second structural member 2 is exposed to the second structural member 2.
[0046] The travel endpoints refer to the two extreme positions of the locking piece 4 during its sliding process, referred to as points A and B. When the locking piece 4 slides to point A along the first direction, it can no longer slide along that direction. At this time, the second structural member 2 obscures at least a portion of the information area 41. When the locking piece 4 slides to point B along the second direction, it can no longer slide along that direction. At this time, the entire area of the information area 41 on the second structural member 2 is exposed. The first and second directions are opposite in orientation. It is easy to understand that when the packaging box is in a closed state, the locking piece 4 is located at point A.
[0047] To better conceal the information area 41, preferably, when the locking piece 4 slides relative to the second structural member 2 to a travel end point, that is, when the locking piece 4 slides to point A, the second structural member 2 covers the entire area of the information area 41. In other words, at this time, the information area 41 is completely recessed into the second structural member 2.
[0048] The provision of a storage area 3 on the first structural member 1 and / or the second structural member 2 includes three cases: In the first case, the entire area of the storage area 3 is located on the first structural member 1. In this case, the first structural member 1 can be regarded as the box body of the packaging box, and the second structural member 2 can be regarded as the box lid of the packaging box; In the second case, the entire area of the storage area 3 is located on the second structural member 2. In this case, the second structural member 2 can be regarded as the box body of the packaging box, and the first structural member 1 can be regarded as the box lid of the packaging box; In the third case, a portion of the storage area 3 is located on the first structural member 1, and another portion is located on the second structural member 2.
[0049] The information area 41 contains information, and the information may be recorded in forms including but not limited to QR codes, barcodes, characters, symbols, URLs, graphics, and patterns. The methods by which the information is recorded in the information area 41 include but are not limited to printing, embossing, engraving, and hot stamping.
[0050] The first structural component 1 is shell-shaped and includes a first front plate 12, a first left side plate 13, a first right side plate 14, a first rear plate 15, and a top plate 16. The first front plate 12 is connected to the top plate 16, the first left side plate 13, and the first right side plate 14, respectively. The first rear plate 15 is connected to the top plate 16, the first left side plate 13, and the second right side plate 23, respectively. The first rear plate 15 is rotatably connected to the second structural component 2.
[0051] Optionally, the first structural member 1 is provided with a first inner liner 17, which is located within the area enclosed by the first front plate 12, the first left side plate 13, the first right side plate 14, the first rear plate 15, and the top plate 16. The locking groove 11 is located at the boundary between the first inner liner 17 and the first front plate 12. Optionally, part or all of the containing area 3 is located on the first inner liner 17.
[0052] In this embodiment, the locking groove 11 is disposed on the first front plate 12 and / or the first inner liner 17. There are three possible scenarios: First, the entire area of the locking groove 11 is disposed on the first front plate 12, in which case the first inner liner 17 contributes to the locking groove 11 by forming a wall of the locking groove 11; second, the entire area of the locking groove 11 is disposed on the first inner liner 17, in which case the first front plate 12 contributes to the locking groove 11 by forming a wall of the locking groove 11; third, a portion of the locking groove 11 is disposed on the first front plate 12, and another portion of the locking groove 11 is disposed on the first inner liner 17.
[0053] It should be noted that in some embodiments, the locking groove 11 can be directly disposed on the first front plate 12, that is, all areas of the inner surface of the locking groove 11 are formed of the material of the first front plate 12. In this case, it is acceptable whether the first inner liner 17 is disposed on the first structural member 1 or not.
[0054] Optionally, the second structural component 2 includes a shell structure, which comprises a second front plate 21, a second left side plate 22, a second right side plate 23, a second rear plate 24, and a bottom plate 25. The second front plate 21 is connected to the bottom plate 25, the second left side plate 22, and the second right side plate 23, respectively. The second rear plate 24 is connected to the top plate 16, the second left side plate 22, and the second right side plate 23, respectively. The second rear plate 24 is rotatably connected to the first rear plate 15. In this embodiment, the first rear plate 15 and the second rear plate 24 are both made of cardboard. The first rear plate 15 and the second rear plate 24 are connected to the same packaging paper. The packaging paper is easily bent at the gap between the first rear plate 15 and the second rear plate 24, thereby creating the effect of the first rear plate 15 and the second rear plate 24 being rotatably connected. Of course, the effect of the first rear plate 15 and the second rear plate 24 being rotatably connected can also be achieved through other structures.
[0055] The second structural member 2 further includes a second liner 26 disposed within the shell structure. The second liner 26 is located within the area enclosed by the second front plate 21, the second left side plate 22, the second right side plate 23, the second rear plate 24, and the bottom plate 25. Optionally, part or all of the containing area 3 is disposed on the second liner 26.
[0056] The locking plate 4 includes a concealed portion 42 and an insertion portion 43 connected together. The insertion portion 43 is used to insert into the locking groove 11 to achieve locking of the first structural member 1 and the second structural member 2 to a certain extent. The information area 41 is provided on the concealed portion 42. Optionally, the concealed portion 42 is rectangular or other shapes.
[0057] To allow the insertion part 43 to be inserted more smoothly into the locking groove 11, the width of the end of the insertion part 43 away from the second structural member 2 is smaller than the width of the other end of the insertion part 43; that is, the width of the end of the insertion part 43 away from the concealed part 42 is smaller than the width of the end of the insertion part 43 connected to the concealed part 42. In this embodiment, the insertion part 43 is triangular in shape; in other embodiments, the insertion part 43 may also be arc-shaped or other shapes.
[0058] The second structural member 2 is provided with a mounting groove 27, and a portion of the locking piece 4 is accommodated in the mounting groove 27. Specifically, the end of the concealed portion 42 away from the insertion portion 43 is always located in the mounting groove 27. When the locking piece 4 slides to point A, the entire area of the concealed portion 42 is located in the mounting groove 27; when the locking piece 4 slides to point B, all areas except the end of the concealed portion 42 away from the insertion portion 43 are exposed in the mounting groove 27.
[0059] The mounting groove 27 is disposed on the second front plate 21 and / or the second inner liner 26. In this case, there are three possibilities: First, the entire area of the mounting groove 27 is disposed on the second front plate 21. In this case, the contribution of the second inner liner 26 to the mounting groove 27 is to form a wall of the mounting groove 27. Second, the entire area of the mounting groove 27 is disposed on the second inner liner 26. In this case, the contribution of the second front plate 27 to the mounting groove 27 is to form a wall of the mounting groove 27. Third, a portion of the mounting groove 27 is disposed on the second front plate 21, and another portion of the mounting groove 27 is disposed on the second inner liner 26.
[0060] The opening of the mounting groove 27 is provided with an inwardly extending blocking portion 28. The locking piece 4 is provided with a limiting portion 44 for cooperating with the blocking portion 28. When the locking piece 4 slides to point B, the blocking portion 28 abuts against the limiting portion 44, thereby preventing the locking piece 4 from continuing to slide in the second direction, thus preventing the locking piece 4 from disengaging from the mounting groove 27. The limiting portion 44 is connected to the concealed portion 42. In this embodiment, the limiting portion 44 is connected to both side walls of the concealed portion 42. The end of the concealed portion 42 away from the insertion portion 43 is connected to the limiting portion 44. Optionally, the limiting portion 44 is rectangular.
[0061] Preferably, at least one wall surface of the mounting groove 27 contacts the locking piece 4. Therefore, when the locking piece 4 slides to a position other than point A, the static friction between the wall surface of the mounting groove 27 and the locking piece 4 will prevent the locking piece 4 from sliding unintended, allowing the locking piece 4 and the second structural member 2 to maintain a relative positional relationship. Of course, in other embodiments, a clearance fit between the locking piece 4 and the mounting groove 27 is also possible.
[0062] Preferably, when the first structural member 1 and the second structural member 2 are in a closed state, at least one wall surface of the locking groove 11 contacts the locking piece 4. It should be noted that the locking piece 4 and / or the second structural member 2 can deform to a certain extent. During the rotation of the first structural member 1 relative to the second structural member 2, the user can press the locking piece 4 inward along its thickness direction to tilt it inward, thereby allowing the locking piece 4 to be smoothly inserted into the locking groove 11. When the packaging box is in a closed state, the locking piece 4 and / or the second structural member 2 at least partially recover their deformation, thereby allowing the wall surface of the locking groove 11 to contact the locking piece 4.
[0063] In this embodiment, all components in the packaging box (including the first structural component 1, the first inner liner 17, the second structural component 2, and the locking piece 4) are made of paper. Therefore, this packaging box is a recyclable and reusable environmentally friendly product.
[0064] In summary, the packaging box provided by this invention maintains a closed state through the cooperation of a locking plate and a locking groove. The locking plate is slidable and has an information area for recording information. The information in this area can be concealed by a second structural component, thus achieving information concealment and ensuring the effective display of the product. Simultaneously, it reduces the risk of information leakage to a certain extent, allowing the packaging box to perform functions such as product anti-counterfeiting and product traceability. This packaging box does not require magnets, saving on magnet purchase costs and thus reducing the manufacturing cost. All components of this packaging can be made of paper materials. When the packaging box needs to be discarded, there is no need for the additional step of removing magnets, greatly facilitating the recycling of the packaging box and enabling its efficient recycling and reuse.
[0065] The above description is merely an embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention.
