Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a packaging assembly including a front floor and a seat mounting beam, belonging to the field of packaging box technology. Background Technology

[0002] In today's rapidly developing and increasingly specialized automotive industry, auto parts are typically manufactured by auto parts manufacturers located in different regions according to design drawings, and then transported individually to the vehicle manufacturer's final assembly department for unified assembly. During the manufacturing, storage, transportation, and assembly processes of auto parts, the scientific selection of packaging boxes can help minimize transportation losses, reduce transportation costs, and improve transport efficiency.

[0003] The front floor is the bottom structure of the front cockpit of a car, consisting of the left front floor located on either side of the center console and the main front floor. The main body of the front floor has a planar structure with an arched, upturned pedal at its front end. The top surface can be fitted with the front seat mounting beam, through which the front seats are mounted. During storage and transportation, after the front floor and front seat mounting beam are assembled, there is a significant height difference between the lowest longitudinal beam and the highest mounting base, thus occupying considerable packaging space longitudinally. This longitudinal pressure can easily cause localized deformation of the planar structure of the front floor. Due to the large lateral dimensions of the front floor itself, and the fact that its pedal is not on the same plane as the main body of the front floor, lateral inertial movement during storage and transportation can also easily lead to deformation under pressure. Some manufacturers store and transport the front floor and front seat mounting beam separately, which avoids the problem of excessive longitudinal dimensions, but often results in incompatible models and quantities affecting subsequent assembly.

[0004] Furthermore, the second-row seats are mounted on the car's floor panel via the rear seat mounting beams. Because the floor panel has a wavy, sloping structure, the overall shape is extremely irregular after assembling the corresponding rear seat mounting beams, making it very susceptible to damage during storage and transportation. Therefore, currently, the floor panel and rear seat mounting beams are usually packaged and transported separately, wasting limited storage and transportation space and loading resources. Even after arriving at the main assembly plant, incompatibility in model or quantity may affect subsequent assembly. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the present invention aims to provide a packaging assembly including a front floor and a seat mounting beam, thereby solving the technical problems of easy damage during assembly and storage of the front floor and front seat mounting beam, low packaging space utilization, subsequent assembly being affected by mismatched models and quantities during separate storage and transportation, and waste of storage and transportation resources due to separate packaging and transportation of the rear seat mounting beam.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: A packaging assembly including a front floor and a seat mounting beam includes at least two packaging box bodies arranged longitudinally, the top surface of the packaging box body being recessed inward to form a front floor placement groove for receiving the front floor and a front beam placement groove for receiving the front seat mounting beam. The front floor mounting slot is adapted to the structure of the front floor bottom surface, and the front crossbeam mounting slot is adapted to the structure of the bottom surface of the front seat mounting crossbeam.

[0007] Preferably, the bottom surface of the packaging box body is recessed inward to form a second clearance groove, which is adapted to the pedal of the front floor and / or the front crossbeam mounting seat of the front seat mounting beam.

[0008] Preferably, the front floor housed in the front floor placement groove is equipped with a front seat mounting beam, and the side of the front floor placement groove is recessed inward to form a first clearance groove that matches the end protrusion of the assembled front seat mounting beam. The second clearance groove is also compatible with the front crossbeam mounting bracket of the front seat mounting beam.

[0009] Preferably, the top surface of the packaging box body is also recessed inward to form a storage groove and / or a rear crossbeam placement groove for accommodating the rear seat mounting crossbeam, and the rear crossbeam placement groove is adapted to the bottom surface structure of the rear seat mounting crossbeam. The second clearance slot is also compatible with the rear crossbeam mounting bracket of the rear seat mounting beam.

[0010] Preferably, the top surface of the packaging box body is also recessed inward to form a second retrieval slot that communicates with the storage slot.

[0011] Preferably, the rear crossbeam placement slot is connected to the front crossbeam placement slot, and the rear seat mounting crossbeam housed in the rear crossbeam placement slot overlaps the front seat mounting crossbeam housed in the front crossbeam placement slot at a perpendicular angle to each other.

[0012] Preferably, at least one of the front floor placement groove, the front crossbeam placement groove, and the rear crossbeam placement groove has an inwardly recessed opening on its bottom surface.

[0013] Preferably, the bottom surface of the packaging box body is also recessed inward to form a material reduction groove and / or a handle groove that is connected to the side of the packaging box body; At least one of the following is provided: between adjacent material reduction grooves, between adjacent second clearance grooves, and between material reduction grooves and second clearance grooves, a reinforcing partition is formed at the same height as the bottom surface of the packaging box body.

[0014] Preferably, the top surface of the packaging box body protrudes outward to form a limiting post, and the inner edge of the material reduction groove is adapted to the limiting post.

[0015] Preferably, the bottom surface of the front floor placement groove is recessed inward to form at least one of the following: a longitudinal beam groove, a pedal groove, and a first picking groove; The longitudinal beam groove is adapted to the longitudinal beam of the front floor, the pedal groove is adapted to the pedal of the front floor, and the first pickup groove is located at the edge of the front floor placement groove.

[0016] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects achieved by this invention are as follows: The top surface of the packaging box body is simultaneously provided with a front floor placement slot for accommodating the front floor and a front crossbeam placement slot for accommodating the front seat mounting crossbeam, solving the problem of the front floor and front seat mounting crossbeam occupying too much packaging space in the longitudinal direction after assembly. The top surface of the packaging box body is also provided with a rear crossbeam placement slot for accommodating the rear seat mounting crossbeam, solving the problem of wasting storage and transportation resources by independently packaging and transporting the rear seat mounting crossbeam. Addressing the problem that the front and rear seat mounting crossbeams are prone to axial movement during storage and transportation, leading to end compression damage, this invention adopts a technical measure where the rear crossbeam placement slot is connected to the front crossbeam placement slot, and the rear seat mounting crossbeam overlaps the front seat mounting crossbeam at a perpendicular angle. The front seat mounting crossbeam provides axial limiting resistance to the rear seat mounting crossbeam, and the rear seat mounting crossbeam provides axial limiting resistance to the front seat mounting crossbeam, thereby restricting the front and rear seat mounting crossbeams from moving left and right or forward and backward as a whole, avoiding damage caused by lateral movement. To improve the utilization of packaging space, the bottom of the packaging box body is recessed inward to form several second clearance grooves, which are used to avoid accommodating the protruding parts of the contents contained in the lower packaging box body, thereby effectively reducing the layer height of the packaging box body and stacking more packaging box bodies in a limited vertical space.

[0019] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, and should not be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] It should be noted that in the description of this invention, the terms "front," "rear," "left," "right," "upper," "lower," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. These terms are used only for the convenience of describing the invention and do not require the invention to be constructed and operated in a specific orientation; therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the invention. The terms "front," "rear," "left," "right," "upper," and "lower" used in the description of this invention refer to the directions shown in the accompanying drawings, while the terms "inner" and "outer" refer to directions toward or away from the geometric center of a specific component, respectively.

[0021] This invention provides a packaging assembly including a front floor and a seat mounting beam, which is formed by stacking several packaging box bodies 5 longitudinally. Specifically, as shown... Figure 13 The image shown is a top-view perspective of two stacked packaging boxes. More packaging boxes 5 can be stacked as needed. The packaging box body 5 is made of expanded polystyrene (EPS) in a single molding process. EPS is a lightweight polymer made by adding a foaming agent to polystyrene resin, simultaneously heating to soften it and generate gas, forming a rigid, closed-cell foam plastic. It features low water absorption, good thermal insulation, light weight, and high mechanical strength.

[0022] The specific structure of the packaging box body 5 is as follows: Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the top surface of the packaging box body 5 is recessed inward to form a front floor placement groove 1 for accommodating the front floor 6, a front crossbeam placement groove 3 for accommodating the front seat mounting beam 7, and a rear crossbeam placement groove 2 for accommodating the rear seat mounting beam 8. The front floor placement groove 1 is adapted to the bottom structure of the front floor 6, the front crossbeam placement groove 3 is adapted to the bottom structure of the front seat mounting beam 7, and the rear crossbeam placement groove 2 is adapted to the bottom structure of the rear seat mounting beam 8. That is, the front floor 6, the front seat mounting beam 7, and the rear seat mounting beam 8 are all housed with their bottom surfaces facing downwards in their respective placement grooves. Each placement groove provides lateral restraint to prevent the front floor 6, the front seat mounting beam 7, and the rear seat mounting beam 8 from shifting laterally due to inertia during storage and transportation, thus avoiding adverse consequences such as compression damage. In this embodiment, each of the front floor placement slot 1, the front crossbeam placement slot 3, and the rear crossbeam placement slot 2 is provided with a reminder label corresponding to the item it contains. The top surface of the packaging box body 5 next to the two front floor placement slots 1 is marked "Front Floor - Right" and "Front Floor - Left", respectively, indicating that it is used to accommodate the right and left front floor 6. The top surface of the packaging box body 5 next to the connection between the front crossbeam placement slot 3 and the rear crossbeam placement slot 2 is marked "Front and Rear Seat Mounting Crossbeam", indicating that it is used to accommodate the front seat mounting crossbeam 7 and the rear seat mounting crossbeam 8, thereby prompting the staff on how to place the corresponding items and improving work efficiency.

[0023] The specific structure of the front floor 6 is as follows Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the front floor 6 has a planar structure, with an arched, upturned pedal 62 at the front and a prominently protruding longitudinal beam 61 at the back. The specific structure of the front seat mounting beam 7 is as follows... Figure 6 As shown, the system includes a front crossbeam body 71, with a through opening 73 on its side and several front crossbeam mounting seats 72 on its top surface. The front seat mounting crossbeams 7 are mounted on the front floor 6. Each vehicle typically has four front seat mounting crossbeams 7, with each pair of front seat mounting crossbeams 7 paired with one front seat. The front seats are mounted on the front crossbeam mounting seats 72. The specific structure of the rear seat mounting crossbeam 8 is as follows... Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the system includes a rear crossbeam body 81, with several rear crossbeam mounting seats 82 on its top surface. Connecting ears 83 extend outwards from both ends of the crossbeam body 81, with a recessed groove 831 at one end of the connecting ear 83. The rear seat mounting crossbeam 8 is mounted on the vehicle's floor. Each vehicle typically has two rear seat mounting crossbeams 8, which are used to mount one second-row seat. It should be noted that the front seat mounting crossbeam 7 also has a similar end structure to the rear seat mounting crossbeam 8, but the rear seat mounting crossbeam 8 is larger and heavier than the front seat mounting crossbeam 7.

[0024] In this embodiment, the packaging box body 5 is provided with two matching front floor placement slots 1, which respectively accommodate the front floor 6 on the left and right sides of the center console, as detailed below. Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown. The bottom surface of the front floor placement slot 1 is recessed inward to form a longitudinal beam slot 11, a pedal slot 12, and a first retrieval slot 14. The longitudinal beam slot 11 is adapted to the longitudinal beam 61 of the front floor 6 it houses, and the pedal slot 12 is adapted to the pedal 62 of the front floor 6 it houses, providing support and accommodation for the longitudinal beam 61 and the pedal 62, respectively. The first retrieval slot 14 is located at the edge of the front floor placement slot 1. Because its depth is lower than the bottom surface of the front floor placement slot 1, the operator can reach into the back of the front floor 6 through the first retrieval slot 14 to easily remove the front floor 6 from the front floor placement slot 1, thus overcoming the problem that the front floor 6 is difficult to remove due to its planar structure. There are two rear crossbeam placement slots 2, which are arranged in parallel and respectively house two rear seat mounting crossbeams 8. The front crossbeam placement slot 3 is perpendicular to the rear crossbeam placement slot 2 and respectively houses one front seat mounting crossbeam 7. The other three front seat mounting crossbeams 7 are still mounted on the front floor 6.

[0025] Both the front seat mounting beam 7 and the rear seat mounting beam 8 are long columnar structures with large inertia and low resistance when moving axially. Even when housed in their corresponding slots, they can still move axially due to inertia and even jump out of the slots, causing the end connecting lugs 83 to be squeezed and damaged. To address this technical problem, the present invention adopts a technical measure in which the rear beam mounting slot 2 is connected to the front beam mounting slot 3, and the rear seat mounting beam 8 housed in the rear beam mounting slot 2 and the front seat mounting beam 7 housed in the front beam mounting slot 3 overlap each other at a perpendicular angle. The overlap method of the rear seat mounting beam 8 and the front seat mounting beam 7 is as follows: Figure 9 As shown, the through opening 73 of the front crossbeam body 71 is passed through by the connecting lug 83 of the right rear seat mounting crossbeam 8 and embedded in the slot 831 of the connecting lug 83; the connecting lug 83 of the left rear seat mounting crossbeam 8 presses against the front crossbeam body 71. After the front seat mounting crossbeam 7 and the rear seat mounting crossbeam 8 are perpendicularly overlapped, the front seat mounting crossbeam 7 can provide axial limiting resistance to the rear seat mounting crossbeam 8, and the rear seat mounting crossbeam 8 can provide axial limiting resistance to the front seat mounting crossbeam 7, thereby restricting the front seat mounting crossbeam 7 and the rear seat mounting crossbeam 8 from moving left and right or forward and backward as a whole, avoiding damage caused by lateral movement.

[0026] Since the front seat mounting beam 7 may extend beyond the lateral edge of the front floor 6 after the front floor 6 is assembled, the side of the front floor placement groove 1 is recessed inward to form a first clearance groove 13 that matches the protrusion at the end of the assembled front seat mounting beam 7, which serves to accommodate the protrusion at the end of the front seat mounting beam 7.

[0027] Because the longitudinal dimension of the front floor 6 is relatively large after the front seat mounting beam 7 is installed, the bottom of the packaging box body 5 is recessed inward to form several second clearance grooves 56, which are adapted to the front beam mounting seat 72 of the installed front seat mounting beam 7. That is, the front beam mounting seat 72 is accommodated in the second clearance grooves 56, thereby effectively reducing the layer height of the packaging box body 5, allowing more packaging box bodies 5 to be stacked in the limited longitudinal space, and improving the utilization rate of packaging space. Specifically, as follows... Figure 12 As shown, due to the reduced height of the packaging box body 5, the front crossbeam mounting base 72, the rear crossbeam mounting base 82, and the pedal 62 all protrude upwards from the top surface of the packaging box body 5. Therefore, the second clearance groove 56 also adapts to the pedal 62 of the front floor 6, that is, the pedal 62 is accommodated within the second clearance groove 56; the second clearance groove 56 also adapts to the front crossbeam mounting base 72 of the front seat mounting crossbeam 7 housed in the front crossbeam placement groove 3, that is, the front crossbeam mounting base 72 is accommodated within the second clearance groove 56; the second clearance groove 56 also adapts to the rear crossbeam mounting base 82 of the rear seat mounting crossbeam 8 housed in the rear crossbeam placement groove 2, that is, the rear crossbeam mounting base 82 is accommodated within the second clearance groove 56.

[0028] As a preferred option, the bottom surfaces of the front floor placement groove 1, the front crossbeam placement groove 3, and the rear crossbeam placement groove 2 are all recessed inward to form a hollow opening 53 that extends through to the ground of the packaging box body 5. While saving materials and reducing weight, it also plays the same role as the second clearance groove 56, that is, to accommodate and clear the protruding parts of the contents contained in the lower packaging box body 5.

[0029] As a preferred embodiment, the top surface of the packaging box body 5 is also recessed inward to form a storage slot 4 and a second retrieval slot 41 connected to the storage slot 4. The storage slot 4 can accommodate matching spare parts, and the second retrieval slot 41 facilitates the operator to take out the spare parts from the storage slot 4.

[0030] As a preferred embodiment, the bottom surface of the packaging box body 5 is also recessed to form a material-reducing groove 52, which saves material and reduces weight. Between adjacent material-reducing grooves 52, between adjacent second clearance grooves 56, and between material-reducing grooves 52 and second clearance grooves 56, reinforcing partitions 54 of the same height as the bottom surface of the packaging box body 5 are formed, providing structural reinforcement. The bottom surface of the packaging box body 5 is also recessed to form a lifting handle groove 55 that communicates with the side of the packaging box body 5. When multiple packaging box bodies 5 are stacked, it is convenient for operators to easily lift the packaging box bodies 5 via the lifting handle groove 55.

[0031] As a preferred embodiment, the top surface of the packaging box body 5 protrudes outward to form a limiting post 51, and the inner edge of the material reduction groove 52 is adapted to the limiting post 51. When multiple packaging box bodies 5 are stacked, the limiting post 51 of the lower packaging box body 5 is precisely embedded in the inner edge of the material reduction groove 52 of the upper packaging box body 5, thereby playing a lateral limiting role for adjacent packaging box bodies 5 and preventing tipping when stacked.

[0032] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
