Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of packaging and transportation technology, specifically to a liquid-cooled plate packaging structure, a packaging box, and a packaging method. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of new energy vehicles, harmonica-style liquid cooling plates, as key thermal management components, require packaging that is crucial during transportation and storage. Currently, traditional packaging methods suffer from low volume utilization and susceptibility to damage to the liquid cooling plates, increasing transportation costs and potentially affecting their performance and quality. For example, Chinese utility model patent document CN220221545U discloses a liquid cooling plate packaging frame. This frame allows workers to easily load products for packaging, stably support products for transport, and fold for stacking when not in use, reducing the volume occupied by the empty frame and transportation costs. However, this patent lacks an optimized internal packaging design for individual products, failing to provide adequate protection for individual products during transport. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this invention is how to protect and transport a single liquid cooling plate.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0005] A liquid-cooled plate packaging structure includes packaging components arranged symmetrically along a central axis;

[0006] The packaging component includes longitudinal long insulating cotton, longitudinal short insulating cotton, transverse insulating cotton, and head insulating cotton. The longitudinal long insulating cotton and longitudinal short insulating cotton are arranged in parallel. The transverse insulating cotton is arranged perpendicular to the longitudinal long insulating cotton and longitudinal short insulating cotton to form a grid structure. The head insulating cotton is arranged close to the longitudinal short insulating cotton.

[0007] The longitudinal long insulating cotton and the longitudinal short insulating cotton are provided with a first deep groove and a first shallow groove on the same side end face and at corresponding positions, and a second shallow groove is provided on the other side end face and at corresponding positions. The longitudinal long insulating cotton is provided with a narrow groove, and the narrow groove and the second shallow groove are on the same end face.

[0008] The transverse insulating cotton has a second deep groove and a stepped groove on one end face, and the first deep groove on the longitudinal long insulating cotton and the longitudinal short insulating cotton is engaged with the second deep groove on the transverse insulating cotton.

[0009] The head insulating cotton has grooves symmetrically arranged on both ends.

[0010] By using a liquid-cooled plate packaging structure to interlock individual liquid-cooled plates into a whole, the height of a single layer of packaging is compressed to the limit, resulting in a significant reduction in packaging volume. This allows more liquid-cooled plates to be loaded within the same transportation space. Furthermore, the interlocking structure securely fixes the liquid-cooled plates within the box, effectively protecting them from damage during transportation and storage, thus ensuring product quality.

[0011] Preferably, the transverse insulating material consists of two sets.

[0012] Preferably, the present invention also provides a packaging box, including a box body and the above-mentioned liquid-cooled plate packaging structure, wherein multiple liquid-cooled plate packaging structures are stacked in the box body.

[0013] Preferably, the opposite ends of the longitudinally spaced cotton abut against the inner wall of the box.

[0014] Preferably, the width of the box body is equal to the length of the transverse insulating material.

[0015] Preferably, the present invention also provides a packaging method for a packaging box, specifically including the following steps:

[0016] Step 1: First, place two sets of transverse insulating cotton from one set of packaging components and the head insulating cotton from another set of packaging components at the bottom of the box, with the second deep groove of the transverse insulating cotton facing upwards.

[0017] Step 2: Place the first liquid cooling plate in the first layer on two sets of transverse insulating cotton, wherein the liquid cooling plate body on the liquid cooling plate is set parallel to the transverse insulating cotton, the water chambers at both ends of the liquid cooling plate are placed on the stepped grooves of the transverse insulating cotton, and the connecting pipe on the liquid cooling plate is placed on the groove at the top of the head insulating cotton in another set of packaging components.

[0018] Step 3: In the first layer of liquid cooling plate packaging structure, the first shallow grooves on the longitudinal long and short insulation cotton in the two sets of packaging components are snapped to the corresponding liquid cooling plate body. The first deep grooves on one set of longitudinal long and short insulation cotton are also snapped to the corresponding second deep grooves on the two sets of transverse insulation cotton in step 2. The narrow grooves on the other set of longitudinal long insulation cotton are snapped to the connecting pipes on the liquid cooling plate.

[0019] Step 4: Place the second liquid cooling plate in the first layer on the two sets of transverse partitions in Step 2. The liquid cooling plate body on the liquid cooling plate is set parallel to the transverse partitions. The water chambers at both ends of the liquid cooling plate are placed on the stepped grooves of the transverse partitions. The connecting pipe on the liquid cooling plate is placed on the narrow groove of the longitudinal long partition where the liquid cooling plate connecting pipe is not fastened.

[0020] Step 5: Attach the remaining two sets of transverse insulating cotton and head insulating cotton in the first layer of liquid-cooled plate packaging structure to the longitudinal long insulating cotton and longitudinal short insulating cotton in step 3 and to the liquid-cooled plate. The stepped groove on the transverse insulating cotton is attached to the water chambers at both ends of the liquid-cooled plate, the second deep groove on the transverse insulating cotton is attached to the first deep groove on the longitudinal long insulating cotton and longitudinal short insulating cotton in step 3, and the bottom groove on the head insulating cotton is attached to the connecting pipe on the liquid-cooled plate.

[0021] Step 6: Repeat the above steps to place the second liquid cooling plate packaging structure and the second liquid cooling plate on the first liquid cooling plate packaging structure. The connecting tube on the liquid cooling plate above the head insulation of the first layer is snapped into the groove at the bottom of the head insulation of the second layer, and the connecting tube on the bottom of the liquid cooling plate in the second layer is snapped into the groove at the top of the head insulation of the first layer.

[0022] Step 7: Repeat the above steps until the Nth layer liquid cooling plate packaging structure and the Nth layer liquid cooling plate are placed on the N-1th layer liquid cooling plate packaging structure.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0024] By using a liquid-cooled plate packaging structure to interlock individual liquid-cooled plates into a whole, the height of a single layer of packaging is compressed to the limit, resulting in a significant reduction in packaging volume. This allows more liquid-cooled plates to be loaded within the same transportation space. Furthermore, the interlocking structure securely fixes the liquid-cooled plates within the box, effectively protecting them from damage during transportation and storage, thus ensuring product quality.

[0025] In addition, the interlocking grid structure of the liquid cooling plate packaging not only greatly reduces the use of unnecessary non-supporting and protective packaging materials, but also makes the packaging and disassembly of the liquid cooling plate more convenient and faster, thus improving work efficiency.

[0043] The head insulating cotton 4 has grooves 401 symmetrically arranged on both ends.

[0044] It should be noted that, for reference Figure 6 In this embodiment, the liquid-cooled plate packaging structure for storing the liquid-cooled plate 5 includes a liquid-cooled plate body 51, a water chamber 52, and a connecting pipe 53.

The opposite ends of the longitudinal long insulating cotton 1 abut against the inner wall of the box body, so that the liquid-cooled plate packaging structure will not move in the length direction of the box body. The width of the box body is equal to the length of the transverse insulating cotton 3, so that the liquid-cooled plate packaging structure will not move in the width direction of the box body, thereby fixing the entire structure of the liquid-cooled plate packaging structure.

[0046] Furthermore, this embodiment also discloses a packaging method for a packaging box, specifically including the following steps:

[0047] Step 1: Refer to Figure 6 First, place two sets of transverse insulating cotton 3 from one set of packaging components in the first layer of liquid-cooled plate packaging structure and the head insulating cotton 4 from another set of packaging components at the bottom of the box, wherein the second deep groove 301 of the transverse insulating cotton 3 is set upward.

[0048] Step 2: Place the first liquid cooling plate 5 in the first layer on two sets of transverse insulating cotton 3, wherein the liquid cooling plate body 51 on the liquid cooling plate 5 is set parallel to the transverse insulating cotton 3, the water chambers 52 at both ends of the liquid cooling plate 5 are placed on the stepped grooves 302 of the transverse insulating cotton 3, and the connecting pipe 53 on the liquid cooling plate 5 is placed on the groove 401 at the top of the head insulating cotton 4 in another set of packaging components.

[0049] Step 3: Refer to Figure 7 In the first layer of liquid cooling plate packaging structure, the first shallow grooves 102 on the longitudinal long insulating cotton 1 and longitudinal short insulating cotton 2 of the two sets of packaging components are snapped into the liquid cooling plate body 51. The first deep grooves 101 on one set of longitudinal long insulating cotton 1 and longitudinal short insulating cotton 2 are also snapped into the second deep grooves 301 on the two sets of transverse insulating cotton 3 in step 2. The narrow grooves 104 on the other set of longitudinal long insulating cotton 1 are snapped into the connecting pipes 53 on the liquid cooling plate 2.

[0050] Step 4: Refer to Figure 8 The second liquid cooling plate 5 in the first layer is placed on the two sets of transverse insulating cotton 3 in step 2. The liquid cooling plate body 51 on the liquid cooling plate 5 is set parallel to the transverse insulating cotton 3. The water chambers 52 at both ends of the liquid cooling plate 5 are placed on the stepped grooves 302 of the transverse insulating cotton 3. The connecting pipe 53 on the liquid cooling plate 5 is placed on the narrow groove 104 of the longitudinal long insulating cotton 1 where the connecting pipe 53 is not fastened.

[0051] Step 5: Refer to Figure 9 The remaining two sets of transverse insulating cotton 3 and head insulating cotton 4 in the first layer of liquid-cooled plate packaging structure are fastened to the longitudinal long insulating cotton 1 and longitudinal short insulating cotton 2 in step 3 and the liquid-cooled plate 5.

[0052] Step 6: Repeat the above steps, placing the second liquid-cooled plate packaging structure and the second liquid-cooled plate 5 on the first liquid-cooled plate packaging structure, wherein the connecting tube 53 on the liquid-cooled plate 5 above the first head insulation 4 is engaged with the groove 401 at the bottom of the second head insulation 4, and the connecting tube 53 on the bottom liquid-cooled plate 5 of the second liquid-cooled plate 5 is engaged with the groove 401 at the top of the first head insulation 4.

[0053] Step 7: Repeat the above steps until the Nth layer liquid-cooled plate packaging structure and the Nth layer liquid-cooled plate 5 are placed on the (N-1)th layer liquid-cooled plate packaging structure. It should be noted that the value of N is determined based on the height of the enclosure.

[0054] In this embodiment, the liquid cooling plate packaging structure interlocks the individual liquid cooling plates 5 into a whole, compressing the height of the single-layer packaging to the limit, thereby greatly reducing the packaging volume and enabling more liquid cooling plates 5 to be loaded in the same transportation space. Furthermore, the liquid cooling plate packaging structure interlocks the liquid cooling plates 5 into a whole, firmly fixing the liquid cooling plates inside the box, which can effectively protect the liquid cooling plates 5 from damage during transportation and storage, ensuring product quality.

[0055] In addition, the interlocking structure of the liquid cooling plate packaging not only greatly reduces the use of unnecessary non-supporting and protective packaging materials, but also makes the packaging and disassembly process of the liquid cooling plate 5 more convenient and faster, thus improving work efficiency.
