Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of packaging, and in particular to a corner protector and a board for folding into a box body. Background Art

[0002] The corner protectors in the prior art generally adopt L-shaped and U-shaped ones. Figure 2 Schematic diagrams 1 and 2 of corner protectors according to the prior art are shown in FIG. 1 , which shows an L-shaped corner protector. Figure 2 A U-shaped corner guard is shown.

[0003] The material of the corner protector in the prior art is mostly paper. It can be produced by pressing pulp or by pressing kraft paper after laminating and gluing. The corner protector is mostly used on the outside of the box to enhance the strength of the box. There are also corner protectors made of plastic foam in the prior art, which are mostly used inside the outer box as a buffer to protect the product from impact.

[0004] Due to its shape, after the corner guard is connected to the box, the box cannot be folded and takes up more space. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the prior art in which the corner guard is connected to the box body and cannot be folded. Figure 2 The box with the prior art corner guard is shown. The storage and transportation in the warehouse take up a lot of space, which increases the transportation and storage costs. The edges of the box are important load-bearing positions.

[0054] In another optional embodiment, the engraved lines of the corner guard can be used to generate barcodes to achieve a traceability function. The barcode can be generated on the corner guard through a smart terminal. The spacing between the engraved lines of the corner guard is different, forming a barcode effect. After the barcode is collected by a data collector, relevant data is obtained, and the information of the box can be scanned and traced. That is, after being scanned, multiple engraved lines that are at a predetermined angle to the axis display the information corresponding to the multiple engraved lines, wherein different distances between adjacent engraved lines in the multiple engraved lines are used to identify different information. The barcode appears in ways including but not limited to: printing, die-cutting, slitting, crimping, cutting, molding and the like. There are many application scenarios for this function, and the following examples are used to illustrate this:

[0055] Usage scenario 1: When purchasing, Party A often uses competition among peers to obtain the best price-performance ratio in order to obtain a better price. In order to avoid the problem that a single purchasing source will put the company in a passive position and generate higher risks, the same product will use different suppliers. When quality problems occur with the product, it will be impossible to determine the responsible party because the products are the same. Different suppliers use different "barcode" corner guards to facilitate the distinction of the responsible party.

[0056] Usage scenario 2: When shipping your products, you can use your own exclusive "barcode" corner protectors, which does not affect the appearance and strength, and can also serve as an identification of your products. If there is a complaint from a customer, it can be easy to distinguish whether the complained product is supplied by you.

[0057] Usage scenario 3: During the production process, manufacturers can use boxes with different "barcode" corner protectors to package products produced by different production lines / work groups. When the products are shipped to customers, the manufacturer's internal responsible department / group can be traced to improve quality control.

[0058] The above function can be implemented in the following way: different distances between scale lines are pre-set to represent different meanings, for example, a distance between scale lines greater than a first predetermined distance represents 1, and a distance between scale lines less than a second predetermined distance represents 0, the information generated as required is converted into binary, and then the distance between scale lines is set according to the converted binary.

[0059] In this embodiment, a plate for folding into a box body is also provided, and the above-mentioned corner guards are provided at the fold lines and / or joints of the plate, and the axes of the corner guards coincide with the fold lines and / or joints.
