The hollow plastic plate 1 has good toughness, high strength, and can be wetted by water, so the folded fruit box also has the characteristics of the hollow plastic plate 1. The folding positions of the hollow plastic plate 1 are all provided with creases to facilitate folding.

[0034] The preferred folding steps of the foldable fruit box are as follows: 1. The second folding plate 31 is folded 90° at the fold of the second side plate 30, and then the second side plate 30 is folded 90° inward from the bottom plate 10. 2. The second folding portion 24 is folded at its own folding portion, so that the second folding portion 24 and the first folding portion 22 partially overlap, and at this time the second limiting ear 25 corresponds to the second limiting hole 26. 3. The first side plate 20 is folded 90° inward from the bottom plate 10, and then the first folding plate 21 is folded together with the first side plate 20, and at this time the second limiting ear 25 will pass through the second limiting hole 26, and the first limiting ear 23 will be inserted into the first limiting hole 11. 4. The third folding plate 32 is folded 90° at the second side plate 30, so that the first limiting ear 23 passes through the second limiting hole 26 and the third limiting hole 33 at the same time. The fruit box is folded with a whole piece of hollow plastic plate 1, which has high strength, a more solid structure, and simple folding steps.

[0035] Preferably, through holes 12 are provided at the folds between the bottom plate 10 and the second side plate 30, the folds between the first folded portion 22 and the first side plate 20, and the folds between the third folded plate 32 and the second side plate 30. The through holes 12 can be used for ventilation, drainage, and observation, which is more conducive to protecting the fruits in the fruit box. At the same time, the through holes 12 are also conducive to the entry of cold air into the fruit box during refrigeration, which is conducive to keeping the fruits in the fruit box fresh.

[0036] Preferably, the through hole 12 is in one of a rectangular, oval, and circular shape. The through hole 12 in this embodiment is oval. The through hole 12 makes bending more convenient and reduces weight, and the oval through hole 12 can also prevent the through hole 12 from tearing.

[0037] Preferably, the hollow plastic plate 1 is one of a polypropylene hollow plate, a polycarbonate hollow plate, and a polyethylene hollow plate. The PP hollow plate of the hollow plastic plate 1 in this embodiment refers to a polypropylene raw material mixed with a polyethylene raw material and extruded through a hollow plate production line, and the cross section of the plate is a lattice shape.

[0038] Embodiment 2

[0039] Please refer to Figure 4-6 The foldable fruit box shown in the figure. The inner surface of the hollow plastic plate 1 is provided with a flexible layer 13 and an anti-scratch layer 14 in sequence; the inner surface of the hollow plastic plate 1 is provided with an oil-printed layer 15. The flexible layer 13 has a certain elasticity, and this design can prevent the fruits in the fruit box from being damaged, and the anti-scratch layer 14 can prevent the flexible layer 13 from being scratched. The oil-printed layer 15 is a plastic film, and a pattern is printed on the plastic film.

[0040] Preferably, the flexible layer 13 is a layered structure made of a foam material, and the anti-scratch layer 14 is an aluminum foil. The foam material is preferably one of polyurethane foam material, polystyrene EPS foam, polypropylene foam material, and polypropylene EPP foam.

[0041] Preferably, the first side panel 20 is provided with a fourth limiting hole 27, the first partition plate 16 is inserted into the fourth limiting hole 27, the second side panel 30 is provided with a fifth limiting hole 34, the second partition plate 17 is inserted into the fourth limiting hole 27; the first partition plate 16 and the second partition plate 17 are engaged together. The first partition plate 16 and the second partition plate 17 are perpendicular to each other. Notches are provided on the first partition plate 16 and the second partition plate 17, and the first partition plate 16 and the second partition plate 17 are engaged together at the notches. The first partition plate 16 and the second partition plate 17 divide the interior of the fruit box, which is conducive to placing the fruits in different areas, which is more aesthetically pleasing and can also prevent the fruits from bumping against each other.

[0042] Preferably, the cover plate covers the third folding plate 32, and the second limiting ear 25 passes through the fifth limiting hole on the cover plate. The cover plate of this embodiment is a transparent hollow plastic plate 1, which is more conducive to observing the fruits in the fruit box. The cover plate can seal the fruit box. The hole size of the fifth limiting hole is smaller than the size of the second limiting ear 25, so when the second limiting ear 25 passes through the fifth limiting hole, the fifth limiting hole will obtain a larger friction force, so that the cover plate will not fall off, the structure is simple, and the assembly is convenient.

[0043] Preferably, at least one of the first side panel 20 and the second side panel 30 is attached with a transparent sealed bag, and a label is placed in the sealed bag. The sealed bag provides waterproof protection for the label, and after the labels are set on the outer walls of the first side panel 20 and the second side panel 30, it is easier to sort and observe.

[0044] In summary, the design focus of the utility model is that the foldable fruit box is folded from a whole hollow plastic plate 1, and the hollow plastic plate 1 has good toughness, high strength, and can be wetted by water, so the foldable fruit box has good toughness, high strength, and can be wetted by water.
