[0013] In some embodiments, another of the inserts is bonded to the main body.

[0014] In some implementations, another of the inserts is integrally formed with the main body.

[0015] This invention also provides a packaging device for use in garment processing equipment, comprising: packaging side pads as described in any of the above claims, wherein the packaging side pads are multiple, and the multiple packaging side pads are spaced apart and correspondingly cover multiple side edges of the garment processing equipment.

[0016] In some embodiments, the packaging device further includes: a top pad for protecting the top surface of the garment processing equipment; and a bottom pad for protecting the bottom surface of the garment processing equipment; wherein the packaging side pad is located between the top pad and the bottom pad and can be inserted into the top pad and the bottom pad.

[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention.

[0027] The specific technical features described in the specific embodiments can be combined in any suitable manner without contradiction. For example, different combinations of specific technical features can form different embodiments and technical solutions. To avoid unnecessary repetition, the various possible combinations of the specific technical features in this invention will not be described separately.

[0028] In the following description, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used only to distinguish different objects and do not indicate that the objects have the sameness or relationship. It should be understood that the directional descriptions "above," "below," "outside," and "inside" refer to the orientation under normal use conditions. "Front," "back," "left," and "right" refer to the front, back, left, and right sides of the garment processing equipment when it is normally placed, with the front side being the side of the garment processing equipment facing the user.

[0029] It should be noted that the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Unless otherwise specified, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes that element. "A plurality of" means two or more.

[0030] In the packaging solutions for related washing machines, apart from the outer corrugated cardboard box, all other packaging components such as top pads, side pads, bottom pads, and cushioning parts are made of expanded polystyrene (EPS). EPS is widely used in the packaging industry due to its lightweight and good cushioning properties; however, as a non-renewable petroleum-based material, EPS is prone to producing toxic and harmful substances during its production process. Improper disposal methods such as discarding or incinerating it after use can cause "white pollution," increasing the environmental burden. Furthermore, its flammability and low density make it prone to significant hazards and difficulties during storage, transportation, and recycling. Currently, many countries have successively proposed gradually reducing the use of EPS materials in packaging and using cleaner and more environmentally friendly packaging materials.

[0031] This invention provides a packaging side pad and a packaging device. The packaging device can be used for garment processing equipment, and also for packaging large household appliances with relatively regular shapes, such as refrigerators. The garment processing equipment described in this invention includes washing machines, dryers, etc. The washing machines include single-wash washing machines with separate washing functions, washing machines with washing and spin-drying functions, and washer-dryer combos with washing and drying functions. The garment processing equipment can be drum-type, and the packaging side pad of this invention can be set on the four side edges of the garment processing equipment under normal use.

[0032] As shown in Figure 1, this embodiment of the invention provides a packaging side pad 10, which includes a main body 1, a folding portion 2, and a support plate 3. The main body 1 has two spaced-apart first edges 11 and two second edges 12 connected between the first edges 11, and the surface of the main body 1 is rectangular. The folding portion 2 is connected to one of the second edges 12 and extends along that second edge 12. The surface of the main body 1 and the surface of the folding portion 2 form an angle, for example, an acute angle or a right angle, meaning the cross-sections of the main body 1 and the folding portion 2 can be considered "L"-shaped, thus allowing for better fit with the side profile of the washing machine. The support plate 3 is attached to the inner surface of the main body 1 and the inner surface of the folding portion 2, thereby thickening the overall packaging side pad 10.

[0033] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, when the packaging side pad 10 is used in a garment processing device, it is positioned on the side edges of the device to protect its sides. For example, the main body 1 is positioned on the front and rear sides of the device, the folding part 2 is positioned on the left and right sides, and the support plate 3 is attached to the inner surfaces of the main body 1 and the folding part 2 and in direct contact with the device. The inner surface of the main body 1 is close to the surfaces of the front and rear sides of the device, and the inner surface of the folding part 2 is close to the surfaces of the left and right sides. The normal direction of the inner surface is towards the device, while the normal direction of the outer surface is away from the device. The packaging side pad 10 covers the side edges of the device, preventing them from being exposed. The device has four side edges, requiring four packaging side pads 10 for protection. The "L"-shaped packaging side pads fit snugly against the four side edges of the device, resulting in a more visually neat appearance.

[0034] As shown in Figure 1, both the main body 1 and the folding part 2 are made of honeycomb paperboard. Honeycomb paperboard is made based on the principle of the honeycomb structure in nature. It is a new type of environmentally friendly and energy-saving sandwich structure material made by bonding corrugated base paper into countless hollow three-dimensional regular hexagons to form a whole load-bearing component - the paper core, and then bonding face paper to both sides. As a paper-based material with a regular hexagonal internal structure made using biomimetic principles, honeycomb paperboard is an optimized structure with the highest strength and largest volume under the condition of using limited materials. By using honeycomb structures with different pore sizes and paper materials, it can provide different compressive strengths in the planar direction to meet the transportation conditions with higher pressure requirements such as pushing, oblique impact, and clamping during packaging and transportation.

[0035] Honeycomb paperboard has the following structural characteristics: (1) Lightweight, low material consumption, and low cost. Compared with other board structures, the honeycomb sandwich structure has the highest strength / mass ratio, resulting in a better performance / price ratio for its finished products, which is the key to the success of honeycomb paperboard. (2) High strength, smooth surface, and not easily deformed. The honeycomb sandwich structure is approximately isotropic, has good structural stability, and is not easily deformed. Its outstanding compressive strength and bending strength are the most important characteristics required for box packaging materials. (3) Good impact resistance and cushioning. Honeycomb paperboard is made of flexible paper core and face paper, which has good toughness and resilience. The unique honeycomb sandwich structure provides excellent cushioning performance and has a higher energy absorption value per unit volume among all cushioning materials. Thick honeycomb paperboard can replace the EPS plastic foam cushioning pads that are currently widely used. (4) Sound absorption and heat insulation. The honeycomb sandwich structure has closed cells filled with air, so it has good sound insulation and heat insulation performance. (5) Pollution-free and in line with modern environmental protection trends. Honeycomb paperboard is made entirely of recyclable paper materials and can be 100% recycled and reused after use.

[0036] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the main body 1 and the folding part 2 can be formed by bonding two independent honeycomb paperboards together, or by integrally molding a single honeycomb paperboard, which can improve processing efficiency. For example, it can be manufactured using processes such as face-folding. It can be understood that the honeycomb paperboard has a certain thickness and two surfaces, a front and a back. A cut is made along the cutting line on the front of the honeycomb paperboard, but not completely severed. Then, the two parts on both sides of the cutting line are folded towards the back of the honeycomb paperboard, which is face-folding. Therefore, through processes such as face-folding, the two parts on both sides of the cutting line are easily folded towards the back of the paperboard, and it is less likely that the two parts on both sides of the cutting line will deform or form wrinkles, thus the compressive strength of the two parts on both sides of the cutting line at the fold is not easily affected.

[0037] As shown in Figure 1, the support plate 3 is made of corrugated cardboard. Corrugated cardboard is one of the most common paper packaging materials. By changing the shape and number of layers of the internal corrugations, it can have a certain degree of resilience and good cushioning. When subjected to external forces (such as clamping, pushing, etc.) during packaging and transportation, the inner corrugated paper is compressed and deformed to a certain extent, thereby providing cushioning and protection for the internal machinery. By combining with the outer honeycomb cardboard, it achieves a better protection effect for the product.

[0038] Corrugated cardboard, also known as corrugated paperboard, is made by bonding at least one layer of corrugated paper and one layer of linerboard (also called boxboard). It has good elasticity and extensibility. The corrugations of the cardboard resemble a series of interconnected arches, arranged side by side and supporting each other to form a triangular structure. This structure has good mechanical strength, can withstand a certain amount of pressure on a flat surface, and is elastic, providing good cushioning. It can be made into pads or containers of various shapes and sizes as needed, which is simpler and faster than plastic cushioning materials. It is less affected by temperature, has good light-blocking properties, and does not deteriorate when exposed to light. It is generally less affected by humidity, but it is not suitable for long-term use in high-humidity environments, as this will affect its strength.

[0039] The packaging side pad 10 is a packaging component that is subjected to less stress during various packaging transportation and storage conditions. The original EPS material of the side pad has been replaced with honeycomb paperboard and corrugated paperboard materials made from natural plant fibers. This reduces the EPS content in the entire packaging, reduces the use of traditional non-renewable petroleum-based materials, mitigates environmental hazards, and improves the low-carbon and environmentally friendly nature of the packaging.

[0040] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, when the packaging side pad 10 is used in garment processing equipment, the main body 1 and the folding part 2 are located on the outside to resist external pressure, while the support plate 3 is located on the inside and directly contacts the side of the garment processing equipment for cushioning and pressure bearing. The main body 1 and the folding part 2 are both made of honeycomb cardboard, and the support plate 3 is made of corrugated cardboard, giving the packaging side pad 10 both good pressure resistance and cushioning effects. In actual use, the outer surface of the packaging side pad 10 can be coated or impregnated according to the actual transportation scenario to give it waterproof and moisture-proof properties.

[0041] During the loading and unloading of products such as garment processing equipment, tools such as clamping carts are used for assistance. The product is clamped on both sides, for example, on both the left and right sides. The surfaces of the product on the left and right sides are directly subjected to the pressure of the clamping equipment. Garment processing equipment is equipped with packaging side pads 10 on the left and right sides. The folding part 2 is located on the left and right sides of the product. The folding part 2 has good compressive strength. The support plate 3 located inside the folding part 2 has a good buffering effect. The combination of the two can be used for working conditions with moderate clamping force. The folding part 2 directly bears the external pressure, and the support plate 3 buffers the external force, achieving a better protection effect for the product.

[0042] For the left and right sides of the garment processing equipment that do not have packaging side pads 10, the folding part 2 and its inner support plate 3 can form a support between the clamping equipment and the product, making it difficult for the clamping equipment to directly contact the left and right sides of the product. The folding part 2 and its inner support plate 3 raise the clamping equipment located on the left and right sides of the product, thus suspending the clamping equipment and the left and right sides of the product to form a buffer space. When the left and right sides of the product are impacted by the clamping equipment, the left and right sides of the product are not likely to directly contact the clamping equipment, and thus the left and right sides of the product are not easily damaged by external impact. The packaging side pads 10 as a whole can protect all four side edges of the garment processing equipment, and can protect both the side surfaces and side edges of the garment processing equipment.

[0043] In this embodiment of the invention, corrugated cardboard undergoes a certain degree of compression deformation under stress, thereby providing cushioning and protection for the internally protected machinery. The stable honeycomb structure of the honeycomb cardboard allows it to provide strong pressure resistance in the lateral direction of the machine, meeting the requirements of packaging and transportation processes such as clamping and tipping. Therefore, the packaging side pads have excellent cushioning and compression resistance, and the main body and folding sections can withstand moderate clamping forces. Furthermore, the packaging side pads are all made of paper materials, which can be recycled or degraded, causing no environmental pollution and contributing to environmental protection. This embodiment of the invention provides an environmentally friendly packaging side pad that combines good cushioning and compression resistance, typically suitable for working conditions with moderate clamping forces, providing targeted and effective protection for the internally protected machinery.

[0044] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the support plate 3 is integrally formed. The support plate 3 needs to be folded to fit snugly against the inner surfaces of both the main body 1 and the folded part 2. The support plate 3 is made from a single piece of cardboard. It can be manufactured using processes such as face-folding. The cardboard has a certain thickness and two surfaces: a front and a back. The cardboard is cut along a cutting line on the front, but not completely severed. Then, the two parts on either side of the cutting line are folded towards the back of the cardboard, which is face-folding, thus obtaining the support plate 3. For example, the support plate 3 can be made from double-layer corrugated cardboard, which has a face paper, a liner paper, a core paper, and two corrugated core papers. The face paper and one corrugated core paper are cut, preserving the connection between the liner paper and the core paper. The cut double-layer corrugated cardboard is then folded to form the integrally formed support plate 3.

[0045] The support plate in this embodiment of the invention is integrally molded, which reduces the production steps of packaging processing. In particular, the molding process no longer uses adhesives, which not only reduces the use of a large amount of adhesives and achieves sustainable development of packaging, but also greatly reduces material waste and labor input, and improves production efficiency. Since the packaging is integrally molded, all sides are completely connected together. Therefore, it can be fully unfolded and flattened after opening, which greatly reduces the volume of the packaging, thereby saving transportation space and enabling large-volume transportation.

[0046] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the support plate 3 includes a first support plate 31, a second support plate 32, and a first connecting portion 33. The first support plate 31 is attached to the inner surface of the main body 1 and can be located on the front or rear sides of the garment processing device. The second support plate 32 is attached to the inner surface of the folding portion 2 and can be located on the left or right sides of the garment processing device. The first connecting portion 33 connects the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32. The thickness of the first connecting portion 33 is less than the thickness of the first support plate 31 and / or the second support plate 32, making it easier for the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 to fold into a certain angle. If the first connecting portion 33 is thicker, the connection point between the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 is prone to deformation or wrinkling due to the compression from the first connecting portion 33, thus affecting the strength of the connection between the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 and consequently affecting the overall cushioning effect of the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32.

[0047] It is understood that the first connecting portion 33 is close to or in contact with the side edge of the garment processing equipment. The first connecting portion 33 can be located on the same side of the garment processing equipment as the second support plate 32 (e.g., the left or right side), or on the same side of the garment processing equipment as the first support plate 31 (e.g., the front or rear side). Furthermore, it is understood that the area of ​​the first connecting portion 33 is much smaller than the areas of the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32, thus maintaining a wrinkle-free surface without affecting the overall strength of the packaging board. For example, when manufacturing the support plate 3 using processes such as reverse folding, the front of the cardboard is cut along the cutting line, but not completely severed; the unsevered portion on the reverse side is the first connecting portion 33.

[0048] The support plate of this invention includes a first support plate, a second support plate, and a first connecting portion. The thickness of the first connecting portion is less than the thickness of the first support plate and / or the second support plate, so that the first support plate and the second support plate are easier to fold into a certain angle. Moreover, the connection position of the first support plate and the second support plate is less likely to be deformed or wrinkled due to the compression of the first connecting portion. Thus, the strength of the first support plate and the second support plate at the connection point is not easily affected, which is beneficial to improving the overall strength of the support plate.

[0049] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 are folded at the position where they are connected to the first connecting part 33 to form a multilayer board that fits together with the main body part 1 and the folded part 2. For example, hot melt adhesive / environmentally friendly latex can be used to bond the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 to the inner surfaces of the main body part 1 and the folded part 2 respectively.

[0050] In this embodiment of the invention, the first support plate and the second support plate are respectively attached to the main body and the folding part, thereby thickening the packaging side pad as a whole, improving the overall strength of the packaging side pad, and making the packaging side pad have good pressure resistance and cushioning effect at the same time.

[0051] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the surfaces of the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 are arranged perpendicularly, meaning that the cross-sections of the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 can be considered as "L"-shaped. Since the surface of the main body 1 and the surface of the folded part 2 form an angle, the first support plate 31 and the second support plate 32 can better fit together with the main body 1 and the folded part 2.

[0052] In this embodiment of the invention, the surfaces of the first support plate and the second support plate are arranged perpendicularly, so that they can better fit together with the main body and the folding part. Furthermore, the "L"-shaped packaging side pad can better fit with the four side edges of the garment processing equipment, making the packaging side pad more visually neat.

[0053] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, there are multiple support plates 3, and these support plates 3 are bonded together. For example, the support plates 3 can be made of materials such as single-layer corrugated cardboard or double-layer corrugated cardboard. Bonding multiple support plates 3 together forms a structure with greater thickness and better cushioning performance. The multiple support plates 3 are connected by a second connecting part 34. Two adjacent support plates 3 are folded at the connection point of the second connecting part 34 to form a multi-layer support plate 3 that is bonded together. The thickness of the second connecting part 34 is less than the thickness of the two adjacent support plates 3, so that the two adjacent support plates 3 can be more easily folded 180 degrees and bonded together. The multiple support plates 3 are integrally formed, that is, made from a single piece of cardboard. Two adjacent support plates 3 can also be made by processes such as reverse folding. For two support plates 3, the connection method is: first support plate 31 --- first connecting part 33 --- second support plate 32 --- second connecting part 34 --- second support plate 32 --- first connecting part 33 --- first support plate 31.

[0054] The support plate in this embodiment of the invention has multiple plates, and the multiple support plates are attached to each other, thereby thickening the support plate as a whole and improving the cushioning effect of the support plate; the multiple support plates are integrally formed, thereby improving the production efficiency of the support plate while improving the cushioning effect.

[0055] In some embodiments, the packaging side pad 10 needs to withstand a stress greater than 8000N. For example, when manufacturing the packaging side pad 10, honeycomb paperboard with different honeycomb pore sizes, different types of face paper / core paper materials, and different corrugated paperboard shapes and layers can be used to achieve different strength requirements. With a fixed material consumption, the flat crush strength of the honeycomb paperboard decreases as the pore size increases. Corrugated shapes include four types: A-flute, B-flute, C-flute, and E-flute. A-flute has good elasticity, large height and spacing, and good shock absorption, making it suitable for fragile products and products with high requirements for impact and collision resistance. B-flute is suitable for making product packaging that has rigidity but does not require shock absorption protection. C-flute combines the characteristics of A and B-flute types, with sufficient rigidity and shock absorption performance. E-flute has a flat surface, better rigidity, is suitable for high-quality printing, and saves transportation and storage space. Corrugated board includes single-wall and double-wall corrugated types. Single-wall corrugated board is composed of a single corrugated core paper with a linerboard glued to each side. Double-wall corrugated board, also known as five-layer corrugated board, is composed of a linerboard, a core paper, and two corrugated core papers glued together. Therefore, different corrugated shapes and numbers of corrugated layers can be selected according to different needs.

[0056] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG1, the packaging side pad 10 further includes inserts 4, each insert 4 protruding from one end of the extending direction of each second edge 12, and the two inserts 4 are arranged opposite to each other in the extending direction of the second edge 12. It can be understood that the main body 1 has two spaced-apart second edges 12, and each second edge 12 has an insert 4 at one end in the extending direction. The insert 4 protruding from the end of one second edge 12 is arranged opposite to the insert 4 protruding from the end of the other second edge 12 in the extending direction of the second edge 12. That is, the two inserts 4 protrude from the extending directions of the two second edges 12 respectively, so that when both inserts 4 are under force, the force can be transmitted to both second edges 12, rather than concentrated on one second edge 12, reducing the risk of damage due to concentrated force on one second edge 12. For example, when the packaging side pad 10 is assembled with other structures, the inserts 4 can be inserted into the positioning holes of other structures for fixation, thereby realizing the assembly of the packaging side pad with other structures.

[0057] The packaging side pads in this embodiment of the invention also include inserts, which make it easier to assemble and fix the packaging side pads to other structures, thereby improving packaging efficiency in actual production.

[0058] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1, an insert 4 and a support plate 3 are integrally formed. The support plate 3 can be made of high-strength cardboard. The material of the support plate 3 is corrugated cardboard. By appropriately improving the quality of the corrugated cardboard and bonding multiple layers of corrugated cardboard, the overall strength of the support plate 3 can be improved, thereby meeting the strength requirements of the insert 4. Using high-quality corrugated cardboard to make the support plate 3 can also further improve the cushioning performance of the packaging side pads.

[0059] In this embodiment of the invention, the insert and the support plate are integrally formed, which reduces the production steps of packaging processing. In particular, the molding no longer uses adhesive processes, which not only reduces the use of adhesives and realizes the sustainable development of packaging, but also greatly reduces material waste and labor input, and improves production efficiency. Furthermore, since the insert and the support plate are integrally formed, there is no adhesive gap between them, resulting in high connection strength. The insert is not easy to break relative to the support plate, allowing the insert to be repeatedly inserted and used.

[0060] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG1, another insert 4 is bonded to the main body 1. The insert 4 is partially embedded in and bonded to the main body 1. The insert 4 can be made of high-strength honeycomb paperboard, while the main body 1 can be made of moderate-strength honeycomb paperboard. Thus, the insert 4 is made of high-strength honeycomb paperboard alone and is embedded in and bonded to the main body 1, resulting in greater strength on this side of the insert 4, which can meet the strength requirements of the insert 4. In this embodiment of the invention, the insert is made of a higher-strength face paper and core material, which allows it to be inserted into the positioning holes of other structures and allows for repeated insertion and installation.

[0061] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG1, another insert 4 is integrally formed with the main body 1. Based on the required strength of the insert 4, a high-strength honeycomb cardboard is selected to manufacture both the main body 1 and the insert 4, thereby satisfying the required strength of the insert 4 and improving the compressive strength of the main body 1, resulting in better protection for the packaging side pads. In this embodiment of the invention, the other insert is integrally formed with the main body, reducing the production steps in packaging processing and improving production efficiency. Since the insert and the main body are integrally formed, there is no adhesive gap between them, resulting in high connection strength. The insert is less likely to break relative to the main body, allowing for repeated insertion and use.

[0062] like Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, this embodiment of the invention also provides a packaging device for use in garment processing equipment. The packaging device includes multiple packaging side pads 10, which are spaced apart and correspondingly cover multiple side edges of the garment processing equipment. For garment processing equipment, typically four packaging side pads 10 are required, each covering one of the four side edges of the garment processing equipment so that they are not exposed.

[0063] In this embodiment of the invention, multiple packaging side pads are spaced apart and correspondingly cover multiple side edges of the garment processing equipment. Typically, during handling or accidental drops, the edges of the garment processing equipment are at higher risk of impact than other areas. The packaging side pads provide targeted protection for these impact-prone parts of the garment processing equipment, thus improving the effectiveness of the packaging base in protecting the equipment. Furthermore, the packaging side pads have a certain thickness, which isolates external impacts from the sides of the garment processing equipment, making it less susceptible to direct impact. Therefore, the packaging side pads effectively protect both the sides and edges of the garment processing equipment.

[0064] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the packaging device also includes a top pad 5 and a bottom pad 6. The top pad 5 is used to protect the top surface of the garment processing equipment; the bottom pad 6 is used to protect the bottom surface of the garment processing equipment; and the packaging side pad 10 is located between the top pad 5 and the bottom pad 6 and can be inserted into the top pad 5 and the bottom pad 6, that is, the inserts 4 extending from both ends of the packaging side pad 10 are inserted into the limiting holes of the top pad 5 and the bottom pad 6 for fixation.

[0065] The packaging device of this invention also includes a top pad and a bottom pad, which can provide comprehensive protection for the garment processing equipment. The packaging side pad is located between the top pad and the bottom pad and can be inserted into the top pad and the bottom pad. This allows the packaging side pad, the top pad and the bottom pad to form a whole after the garment processing equipment is packaged, so that they can jointly bear and share the impact of external forces. It also facilitates the installation of the packaging side pad, which can be fixed to the top pad and the bottom pad without external assistance after installation.

[0066] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the packaging device also includes a packaging box with internal storage space. For example, the packaging box can be a corrugated cardboard box or a box made of a combination of corrugated cardboard and honeycomb cardboard. The side pads 10, top pads 5, bottom pads 6, and the garment processing equipment are all located within this storage space. The side pads 10, top pads 5, and bottom pads 6 are collectively referred to as packaging pads. The packaging pads are located between the garment processing equipment and the packaging box. Therefore, the packaging pads, as inner pads, are in direct contact with the garment processing equipment, while the packaging box, as outer packaging, directly withstands external impacts. The combined use of these two elements provides double-layer protection for the garment processing equipment.

[0067] The packaging device of this invention also includes a packaging box with an internal space. The packaging pad and the garment processing equipment are both located in the internal space. The packaging pad acts as an inner pad and is in direct contact with the garment processing equipment. The packaging box acts as an outer packaging and directly withstands the impact of external forces. The two are used together to provide double protection for the garment processing equipment, further increasing the strength of the packaging and providing true protection.

[0068] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.
