Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of packaging, in particular to a styrofoam packaging structure for toilets. Background Art

[0002] The toilet, also known as the toilet seat, is a common sanitary appliance in people's lives. Toilets are usually made of ceramics, so they need a good packaging structure to protect them during transportation and handling to prevent them from being damaged. The existing packaging structure generally uses a polystyrene base and a paper support to protect the bottom of the toilet, combined with Figure 1 Existing packaging structures typically feature recessed slots A around the styrofoam base. The paper holder folds upward to form flanges B, corresponding to the recessed slots. During assembly, flanges B engage with recessed slots A. This structure applies an outward force to flanges B when the toilet is placed on the base, causing them to tilt outward. This makes it difficult to fit the paper holder into the outer box, and sometimes requires manual squeezing. This is extremely inconvenient and reduces packaging efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0029] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the utility model for which protection is sought, but merely represents the selected embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Example

[0030] Combine Figures 2 to 6This embodiment provides a styrofoam packaging structure for a toilet, comprising a base 1, a paper holder 2, a left upright panel 3, and a right upright panel 4. Specifically, the paper holder 2 is planar and bonded to the lower end surface of the base 1. The left and right upright panels 3 and 4 are symmetrically arranged on either side of the upper end surface of the base 1. The base 1 is recessed with a bottom contour groove 11 that conforms to the shape of the toilet bottom. The left and right upright panels 3 and 4 are recessed with left and right contour grooves 31 and 41, respectively, corresponding to the left and right side walls of the toilet. Multiple longitudinally arranged first ribs 32 are spaced between the top perimeters of the left and right contour grooves 31 and 41 and the inner wall surfaces of the corresponding upper ends of the upright panels. A first buffer groove 33 is formed between adjacent first ribs 32 to cushion the top of the toilet during transportation.

[0031] When packaging a toilet, first adhere the base 1 and paper support 2 together using double-sided tape, glue, or adhesive tape. Then, place the adhered base 1 on a support surface. Next, place the toilet on the base. Next, attach the left and right uprights 3 and 4, and finally, install the outer box. The base 1, left and right uprights 3 and 4 are all made of styrofoam. The paper support 2 is corrugated paper with a thickness of at least 2 mm, preferably 5 mm in this embodiment, to provide adequate support.

[0032] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the paper holder 2 is bonded to the base 1, thereby integrating the base 1 and the paper holder 2. The paper holder 2 is flat, so when the toilet is placed on the base 1, the four sides of the paper holder 2 do not turn outward, thereby facilitating the loading of the outer box, reducing packaging time, and improving packaging efficiency. Furthermore, in this embodiment, multiple longitudinally disposed first ribs 32 are provided between the tops of the left and right contour grooves 31 and 41 and the inner walls of the corresponding vertical panels to cushion the toilet from bouncing and vibration during transportation, ensuring that the toilet is not damaged.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, the base 1 is rectangular in shape, with four sides being upright, and the size of the paper holder 2 is set to be the same as the size of the lower end face of the base 1. The base 1 is rectangular in shape, with four sides being upright, which can facilitate the setting of the outer box and facilitate the fit and positioning with the outer box. It is easy to understand that in this embodiment, the paper holder 2 is a cardboard with a rectangular shape, and its size is the same as that of the base 1. When gluing the paper holder 2, a special jig can be used to prevent the paper holder 2 from deviating from the outer periphery of the base 1 during gluing. In other embodiments, the size of the paper holder 2 can also be set to be smaller than the size of the base 1 to facilitate the gluing of the paper holder 2. The invention is not limited to this and is not specifically limited.

[0034] In another embodiment, multiple relief holes 111 are evenly distributed on the bottom surface of the bottom profile groove 11, and multiple second ribs 112 are longitudinally arranged along the perimeter of the bottom profile groove 11. The relief holes 111 are preferably circular blind holes to prevent the bottom surface of the toilet from adsorbing against the bottom surface of the bottom profile groove. The multiple second ribs 112 form a second buffer groove 113 around the perimeter of the bottom profile groove 11 to mitigate the effects of lateral impact on the toilet. Furthermore, the provision of the second buffer groove allows for the timely discharge of air from the bottom of the toilet when it is placed into the base, thus preventing air resistance.

[0035] Preferably, the left and right contour grooves 31 and 41 are symmetrically arranged, extending and rising from the front to the rear. Multiple third and fourth ribs 34 and 35 are crisscrossed within the left and right contour grooves 31 and 41 to form multiple shock-absorbing grooves 36. This prevents external vibration or impact from affecting the toilet sidewalls, further ensuring the reliability of the packaging structure. Preferably, a through hole 37 is provided along the sidewall of the left vertical plate 3 for inserting the toilet switch. The provision of through hole 37 allows packaging personnel to more intuitively distinguish between the left and right vertical plates 3 and 4, and also facilitates observation of the switch's packaging.

[0036] In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, based on the above embodiment, hollowed-out grooves 12 are provided in the non-contoured areas of the base 1, left upright 3, and right upright 4 to ensure uniform wall thickness throughout the packaging structure. This prevents uneven thickness from causing different impact resistance levels at different locations of the packaging structure, which could damage the toilet.

[0037] Furthermore, a recessed receiving groove 38 is formed on the top of the left upright board 3 and / or the right upright board 4. In this embodiment, the receiving grooves 38 are preferably symmetrically arranged on the left and right upright boards 3 and 4, with the inner sides of the two receiving grooves 38 being hollowed out to facilitate the placement of the power cord and other components of the smart toilet. Placing the receiving grooves 38 on the top of the upright boards ensures that accessories are placed in a fixed position, preventing them from being missed or misplaced.

[0038] In other embodiments, the base 1, left vertical board 3, and right vertical board 4 are molded with at least the location and model number on the user-facing side. For example, "A01 bottom" is molded on the base 1, "A01 left" is molded on the left vertical board 3, and "A01 right" is molded on the right vertical board 4. This facilitates identification by packers, avoids mispacking, improves packaging efficiency, and also facilitates warehouse storage and archiving.

[0039] The above are only preferred implementations of the present invention. The protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions under the concept of the present invention fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
