Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of printing, in particular to a moisture-proof fruit color box. Background Art

[0002] A fruit color box is a color box used to load fruits, which is commonly seen in the sales business of exquisitely packaged fruits. Compared with the color boxes of other types of commodities, fruit color boxes generally need to be perforated to connect with the external environment to avoid the problem of accelerated deterioration due to anaerobic respiration of fruits in a closed environment. In addition, in order to reduce the probability of fruits being damaged due to bumps during transportation, a sponge pad is usually laid in the fruit color box. The sponge pad can also absorb moisture, so that the fruits are maintained in a relatively dry state, and the surface of the fruits is prevented from being attached with moisture for a long time and accelerating deterioration (for example, when the fruit color box is transferred from a refrigerated truck to a fruit store and placed along the street, without refrigeration conditions, water droplets caused by temperature difference are likely to form on the surface of the fruits).

[0003] The defect of traditional fruit color boxes is that the sponge pad is maintained in a high humidity state after absorbing moisture, which is easy to breed bacteria and accelerate the deterioration of fruits, and is not conducive to fruit preservation. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] Based on this, the utility model provides a moisture-proof fruit color box, in which an overhead layer is arranged in the bottom box, and through a sponge pad, a backing plate, a desiccant, and a liquid discharge groove, an efficient dehumidification channel is formed, so that the moisture absorbed by the sponge pad can be quickly discharged, preventing the moisture from staying on the sponge pad, and alleviating the problem of accelerated fruit deterioration caused by bacteria breeding due to too high humidity of the sponge pad, which is conducive to fruit preservation.

[0005] A moisture-proof fruit color box includes:

[0006] A bottom box; the side of the bottom box is provided with a first ventilation hole and a first liquid discharge groove communicating with the outside;

[0012] For the above moisture-proof fruit color box, when the lid covers the bottom box, the first ventilation holes and the second ventilation holes are connected, and the first liquid drainage groove and the second liquid drainage groove are connected, providing a good ventilation and liquid drainage channel for the fruit. When there is moisture attached to the surface of the fruit, it can be absorbed by the sponge pad. After the sponge pad absorbs the moisture, the moisture can penetrate through the liquid seepage holes on the backing plate into the overhead layer and then be absorbed by the desiccant. Moreover, since the overhead layer is connected to the outside through the first liquid drainage groove, it can also provide good evaporation and outward discharge conditions for the moisture that enters the overhead layer or is absorbed by the desiccant, thereby playing a role in dehumidification and moisture prevention. The support bars arranged in a criss-cross pattern can form a stable support effect, and the snap connection method is convenient for disassembly and assembly. Through the above design, an overhead layer is provided inside the bottom box, and through the sponge pad, the backing plate, the desiccant, and the liquid drainage groove, an efficient dehumidification channel is formed, enabling the moisture absorbed by the sponge pad to be quickly discharged, preventing the moisture from staying on the sponge pad, and alleviating the problem of accelerated fruit spoilage caused by the growth of bacteria due to excessive humidity of the sponge pad, which is beneficial to fruit preservation.

[0013] In one embodiment, a card slot is provided at the bottom of the bottom box; the support member is provided with a protruding portion that engages with the card slot. The connection between the bottom box and the support member is achieved by snap connection, which is convenient for replacing the support member to adapt to different load-bearing requirements.

[0014] In one embodiment, a notch is provided at the bottom of the periphery of the lid. The notch facilitates the user to separate the lid from the bottom box.

[0015] In one embodiment, both the horizontal support bars and the vertical support bars are provided with ventilation grooves arranged at intervals. The ventilation grooves can connect the various regions of the overhead layer separated by the criss-cross pattern, preventing the formation of local closures.

[0016] In one embodiment, the moisture-proof fruit color box further includes: a guiding inclined plate located inside the bottom box; the guiding inclined plate is located in the overhead layer, and the desiccant is placed on the guiding inclined plate; the cross-section of the guiding inclined plate is triangular, and the tip of the guiding inclined plate extends towards the first liquid drainage groove. The guiding inclined plate can form a guiding inclined surface in the overhead layer to guide the moisture towards the first liquid drainage groove, achieving the effect of improving the dehumidification efficiency.

[0017] In one embodiment, a hydrophobic film is provided on the surface of the guiding inclined plate. The hydrophobic film can reduce the probability of moisture staying on the surface of the guiding plate and improve the liquid drainage efficiency.

[0018] In one embodiment, a hydrophobic film is provided on the surface of the backing plate. The hydrophobic film can prevent moisture from adhering to the backing plate, making it easier for the moisture to be guided into the overhead layer. Description of the Drawings

[0047] As Figures 1 to 13 shown, it is a moisture-proof fruit color box 100 of an embodiment of the present utility model.

[0048] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, the moisture-proof fruit color box 100 includes: a bottom box 10 and a lid 20 connected to the bottom box 10, as well as a support member 30, a cushion plate 40, a sponge pad 50, and a desiccant 60 respectively located inside the bottom box 10. Among them, the bottom box 10 is used for loading fruits, and when the bottom box 10 is combined with the lid 20, a storage space that is breathable on the periphery and closed at both the top and the bottom can be formed. The support member 30 and the cushion plate 40 are combined so that the bottom box 10 is divided into an upper layer and a lower layer. Among them, the upper layer is used to place the sponge pad 50 and fruits, and the lower layer is an air layer for draining moisture. The cushion plate 40 can not only support the sponge pad 50 and fruits, but also serve as a transition layer for moisture penetration between the upper layer and the lower layer.

[0049] Below, in combination with Figures 1 to 13As shown, the moisture-proof fruit color box 100 described above will be further described.

[0050] As Figure 8 and Figure 9 shown, the side of the bottom box 10 is provided with a first ventilation hole 11 and a first liquid drainage groove 12 communicating with the outside. For example, as Figure 8 shown, in this embodiment, the bottom box 10 is a rectangular trough body with an open top, and strip-shaped first ventilation holes 11 are provided on its peripheral side, while the first liquid drainage grooves 12 are distributed in the bottom areas of the two longer sides.

[0051] As Figure 10 shown, the side of the lid 20 is provided with a second ventilation hole 21 and a second liquid drainage groove 22 communicating with the outside. The second ventilation hole 21 communicates with the first ventilation hole 11. The second liquid drainage groove 22 communicates with the first liquid drainage groove 12. As Figure 10 shown, in this embodiment, the shape of the lid 20 matches that of the bottom box 10, that is, the lid 20 is a rectangular trough body with an open bottom, and second ventilation holes 21 with the same shape, orientation, and position as the first ventilation holes 11 are provided on its peripheral side, while the shape, orientation, and position of the second liquid drainage grooves 22 are also the same as those of the first liquid drainage grooves 12. It should be noted that for the first ventilation hole 11 and the second ventilation hole 21, it is not required that their shapes and positions must coincide. As long as there is an overlapping area between them to achieve the effect of gas conduction. For example, on the premise that both are strip-shaped holes, the first ventilation hole 11 can be vertically arranged, and the second ventilation hole 21 can be horizontally arranged. An overlapping ventilation area is formed at the intersection of the cross, and this design can reduce the probability of fruits falling out of the fruit color box from the ventilation holes (for fruits with a relatively small single volume).

[0052] Combined with Figure 2 and Figure 10 shown, in this embodiment, a notch 23 is provided at the bottom of the peripheral side of the lid 20. The notch 23 facilitates the user to separate the lid 20 from the bottom box 10. For example, in this embodiment, semi-circular notches are provided on both longer sides of the lid 20.

[0053] Combined with Figure 4 and Figure 7 shown, the support member 30 forms an overhead layer in the bottom area of the inner cavity of the bottom box 10, and the bottom of the overhead layer communicates with the first liquid drainage groove 12. As Figure 3 and Figure 12 shown, in this embodiment, the support member 30 includes: a horizontal support bar 31 and a longitudinal support bar 32 that engages with the horizontal support bar 31. The support bars arranged in a criss-cross manner can form a stable support effect, and the engagement method is convenient for disassembly and assembly.

[0054] Furthermore, as Figure 7 andFigure 12 As shown, in this embodiment, the horizontal support bars 31 and the vertical support bars 32 are both provided with ventilation grooves 33 arranged at intervals. The ventilation grooves 33 can connect the respective regions of the overhead layer separated by the horizontal and vertical intersections, avoiding the formation of local enclosures.

[0055] Combined with Figure 2 、 Figure 9 、and Figure 12 As shown, in this embodiment, the bottom of the bottom box 10 is provided with a card slot 13. The support member 30 is provided with a protruding portion 34 that is inserted into the card slot 13. The connection between the bottom box 10 and the support member 30 is achieved by a snap connection, facilitating the replacement of the support member 30 to adapt to different load-bearing requirements. Further, as Figure 2 shown, in the embodiment, the depth of the protruding portion 34 is the same as the paper thickness of the bottom of the bottom box 10, that is, the bottom end of the protruding portion 34 is flush with the bottom surface of the bottom box 10.

[0056] Combined with Figure 4 and Figure 6 shown, the cushion plate 40 is laid on the support member 30, and the cushion plate 40 is provided with liquid seepage holes 41 that communicate with the overhead layer. As Figure 6 shown, in this embodiment, the cushion plate 40 is a rectangular cardboard, which is provided with uniformly distributed liquid seepage holes 41.

[0057] Further, in order to prevent moisture from remaining on the cushion plate 40 and causing the cushion plate 40 to be eroded, softened, and damaged, in this embodiment, the surface of the cushion plate 40 is provided with a hydrophobic film. The hydrophobic film can prevent moisture from adhering to the cushion plate 40, making it easier for the moisture to be guided into the overhead layer. The hydrophobic film refers to a film with waterproof and hydrophobic properties (opposite functions to the hydrophilic film), such as polytetrafluoroethylene film (abbreviated as PTFE film).

[0058] Combined with Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown, the sponge pad 50 is laid on the cushion plate 40. In this embodiment, the sponge pad 50 is a rectangular sponge block.

[0059] Combined with Figure 4 and Figure 7 shown, the desiccant 60 is located in the overhead layer. In this solution, there is at least one pack of desiccant 60, and the input amount of the desiccant 60 can be appropriately increased according to the level of moisture-proof requirements.

[0060] In addition, combined with Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、and Figure 7 shown, in this embodiment, the moisture-proof fruit color box 100 further includes: a guiding inclined plate 70 located inside the bottom box 10. The guiding inclined plate 70 is located in the overhead layer, and the desiccant 60 is placed on the guiding inclined plate 70. As Figure 4 and Figure 13As shown, the cross-section of the guiding inclined plate 70 is triangular, and the tip of the guiding inclined plate 70 extends towards the first liquid drainage groove 12. The guiding inclined plate 70 can form a guiding inclined surface in the overhead layer to guide moisture to flow towards the first liquid drainage groove 12, achieving the effect of improving the dehumidification efficiency.

[0061] Furthermore, in order to prevent moisture from adhering to the surface of the guiding inclined plate 70 and causing a large amount of moisture to accumulate in the overhead layer, in this embodiment, a hydrophobic film can also be provided on the surface of the guiding inclined plate 70. The hydrophobic film can reduce the probability of moisture staying on the surface of the guiding plate and improve the liquid drainage efficiency. Similarly, a hydrophobic film can also be provided on the surface of the support member 30.

[0062] In this embodiment, the bottom box 10, the lid 20, the support member 30, the cushion plate 40, and the guiding inclined plate 70 are all made of cardboard or corrugated paper, and a color printing area is reserved on the top surface of the lid 20.

[0063] Principle of operation description:

[0064] During use, the fruit is placed on the sponge pad 50, that is, the fruit is stored in the upper area of the bottom box 10.

[0065] As Figure 4 shown, when the lid 20 covers the bottom box 10, the first ventilation holes 11 and the second ventilation holes 21 are connected, and the first liquid drainage groove 12 and the second liquid drainage groove 22 are connected, providing a good ventilation and liquid drainage channel for the fruit. When moisture adheres to the surface of the fruit, it can be absorbed by the sponge pad 50. After the sponge pad 50 absorbs moisture, the moisture can penetrate through the liquid seepage holes 41 on the cushion plate 40 into the overhead layer and then be absorbed by the desiccant 60. Moreover, the overhead layer is connected to the outside through the first liquid drainage groove 12 (when the lid 20 is opened, it can be discharged through the first liquid drainage groove 12, and if the lid 20 is closed, it can be discharged through the first liquid drainage groove 12 and the second liquid drainage groove 22 in sequence). Therefore, it can also provide good evaporation and outward discharge conditions for the moisture that enters the overhead layer or is absorbed by the desiccant 60, thereby playing a role in dehumidification and moisture prevention.

[0066] For the above moisture-proof fruit color box 100, an overhead layer is provided in the bottom box 10, and through the sponge pad 50, the cushion plate 40, the desiccant 60, and the liquid drainage groove, an efficient dehumidification channel is formed, enabling the moisture absorbed by the sponge pad 50 to be quickly discharged, preventing moisture from staying on the sponge pad 50, and alleviating the problem of accelerated fruit spoilage caused by the growth of bacteria due to the high humidity of the sponge pad 50, achieving the effect of dehumidification and moisture prevention, and being beneficial to fruit preservation.

[0067] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. For the sake of concise description, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, it should be considered as the scope recorded in this specification.

[0068] The above embodiments only express the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it should not be construed as a limitation on the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present invention, several deformations and improvements can still be made, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent shall be subject to the appended claims.
