[0018] The above technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present application has the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0019] The protective front guard and cushioning packaging provided in the embodiment of the present application has a first lock body and a second lock body respectively connected to the support plate, and the support plate, the first lock body and the second lock body are folded into one piece. Specifically, the first lock body can be flipped along the fold between it and the support plate toward the direction close to the accommodating cavity, and the second lock body can be flipped along the fold between it and the support plate toward the direction close to the accommodating cavity, so that the end of the first lock body away from the support plate is connected to the end of the second lock body away from the support plate, and an accommodating cavity is formed between the first lock body, the second lock body and the support plate. The assembly process of this protective front baffle is as follows: first, place the baffle on the side of the support plate facing the object to be packaged. Next, flip the first lock body along the crease between it and the support plate toward the receiving cavity. Then, flip the second lock body along the crease between it and the support plate toward the receiving cavity, so that the first lock body and the second lock body are fixedly connected. At the same time, the first lock body, the second lock body, and the support plate partially cover the baffle within the receiving cavity. The baffle's slot is connected to the second lock body. Since the first and second lock bodies are relatively fixed, the relative displacement between the baffle and the support plate is limited. When the object to be packaged needs to be transported, the front of the support plate is placed against the illuminated side of the object to be packaged. The elastic restoring force of the baffle is used to absorb external impact forces, thereby achieving cushioning and protection for the object to be packaged. Compared with the existing technology, there is no need to use adhesive to fix the baffle, which can reduce environmental damage. At the same time, the assembly process is time-saving and labor-saving, reducing production costs. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0034] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0035] The disclosure below provides many different embodiments or examples for implementing different structures of the present application. In order to simplify the disclosure of the present application, the components and settings of specific examples are described below. Of course, these are merely examples and are not intended to limit the present application. In addition, the present application may repeat reference numbers and / or letters in different examples. Such repetition is for the purpose of simplicity and clarity and does not in itself indicate the relationship between the various embodiments and / or settings discussed.

[0036] For ease of description, spatially relative terms may be used herein to describe the relative position or movement of one element or feature relative to another element or feature as shown in the figures, such as "inside," "outside," "inside," "outside," "below," "beneath," "above," "above," "front," "back," and the like. Such spatially relative terms are intended to include different orientations of the device in use or operation other than the orientation depicted in the figures. For example, if the device in the figures undergoes a positional flip or a change in posture or a change in motion, then these directional indications will also change accordingly. For example, an element described as "below" or "below" another element or feature will subsequently be oriented as "above" or "above" another element or feature. Thus, the example term "below" can include both above and below orientations. The device may be oriented otherwise (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations) and the spatially relative descriptors used herein will be interpreted accordingly.

[0037] In the prior art, such as Figure 7 As shown, some protective front guards 5 include a support plate 51 (cardboard) and a baffle 52 (a foamed part made of pearl cotton). The support plate 51 and the baffle 52 are fixed together by glue. When the TV needs to be transported, the side of the front guard 5 provided with the baffle 52 is placed against the light-emitting side of the TV. The baffle 52 is set as a foamed part, and the elastic recovery force of the baffle 52 is used to absorb external impact forces, thereby achieving cushioning and protection for the TV. However, during the production process of the front guard, since the adhesive contains harmful substances such as volatile organic compounds, toxic curing agents, plasticizers, diluents and other additives, harmful fillers, etc., these harmful substances will cause harm to the environment. At the same time, the adhesive requires a certain amount of time to cure. This glue fixation method will also increase the workload and time cost during the production process of the front guard.

[0038] In order to solve the technical problems in the prior art that the protective front screen 5 is fixed by glue dispensing, which causes harm to the environment due to the harmful substances in the adhesive, and the adhesive requires a certain amount of time to solidify, which also increases the workload and time cost in the production process of the front screen, the present application provides a protective front screen and cushioning packaging, which does not require the use of adhesives to fix the baffle, can reduce harm to the environment, and at the same time saves time and effort in the assembly process, thereby reducing production costs.

[0039] Figures 1 to 3A protective front guard 1 provided in an embodiment of the present application is configured to protect the luminous side of an object to be packaged 4. The protective front guard 1 includes a support plate 11, a locking structure 12 and a baffle 13. The locking structure 12 is arranged on the side of the support plate 11 facing the object to be packaged 4. The locking structure 12 includes a first lock body 121 and a second lock body 122. The first lock body 121 and the second lock body 122 are respectively connected to the support plate 11. The support plate 11, the first lock body 121 and the second lock body 122 are folded into one piece. The first lock body 121 and the second lock body 122 are detachably connected and a accommodating cavity 123 is provided between the two. A part of the baffle 13 is arranged in the accommodating cavity 123, and the baffle 13 is provided with a card slot 131 that is card-connected to the second lock body 122.

[0040] For the sake of convenience and understanding, the side of the support plate 11 facing the object 4 to be packaged (e.g., an LCD TV) is referred to as the front side, and the side of the support plate 11 facing away from the object 4 to be packaged is referred to as the back side. It is understood that the first lock body 121 and the second lock body 122 are respectively connected to the support plate 11, and the support plate 11, the first lock body 121, and the second lock body 122 are folded together to form a single body. Specifically, the first lock body 121 can be flipped along the fold between it and the support plate 11 toward the direction close to the accommodating cavity 123, that is, Figure 3 In the embodiment, the first lock body 121 can be turned leftward around the R axis, and the second lock body 122 can be turned along the fold between the second lock body 122 and the support plate 11 toward the direction close to the accommodating cavity 123, that is, Figure 3 In the figure, the second lock body 122 can be flipped to the right around the R axis, so that the end of the first lock body 121 away from the support plate 11 is connected to the end of the second lock body 122 away from the support plate 11, and a accommodating cavity 123 is formed between the first lock body 121, the second lock body 122 and the support plate 11. The assembly process of this protective front baffle is as follows: first, place the baffle 13 on the side of the support plate 11 facing the object 4 to be packaged, then flip the first lock body 121 along the fold between it and the support plate 11 in the direction close to the accommodating cavity 123, and then flip the second lock body 122 along the fold between it and the support plate 11 in the direction close to the accommodating cavity 123, so that the first lock body 121 and the second lock body 122 are fixedly connected. At the same time, the first lock body 121, the second lock body 122 and the support plate 11 cover a part of the baffle 13 in the accommodating cavity 123, and the card groove 131 of the baffle 13 is card-connected with the second lock body 122. Since the first lock body 121 and the second lock body 122 are relatively fixed, the relative displacement between the baffle 13 and the support plate 11 is limited. When the packaged object 4 needs to be transported, the front of the support plate 11 is placed against the illuminated side of the packaged object 4. The elastic restoring force of the baffle 13 absorbs external impact forces, thereby cushioning and protecting the packaged object 4. Compared with existing technologies, the baffle 13 does not need to be fixed with adhesives, which can reduce environmental damage, save time and labor during assembly, and reduce production costs.

[0041] It should be noted that the support plate 11, the locking structure 12 and the baffle 13 can all be made of pearl cotton (EPE). Polyethylene foam cotton is a non-crosslinked closed-cell structure, also known as EPE pearl cotton, which is a new type of environmentally friendly packaging material. It is composed of low-density polyethylene grease that is physically foamed to produce countless independent bubbles. It overcomes the shortcomings of ordinary foamed glue, such as fragility, deformation, and poor recovery. It has many advantages such as waterproof and moisture-proof, shockproof, sound insulation, heat preservation, good plasticity, strong toughness, recycling, environmental protection, and strong impact resistance. It also has good chemical resistance. Therefore, if subjected to external impact, the support plate 11, the locking structure 12 and the baffle 13 can all utilize the material properties of pearl cotton to absorb the external impact well, thereby providing good buffering and protection for the packaged object 4. Of course, the support plate 11, the locking structure 12 and the baffle 13 can also be made of other materials with strong impact resistance, and this application does not limit this.

[0042] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, a through groove 111 is provided on the support plate 11, and the first lock body 121 has a first end and a second end arranged opposite to each other. The first end of the first lock body 121 is arranged on the through groove 111, and the second lock body 122 is arranged on the outer peripheral side of the support plate 11. The first lock body 121 and the second lock body 122 are arranged opposite to each other in the horizontal direction, and the second end of the first lock body 121 is snap-connected with the second lock body 122.

[0043] It can be understood that the first end of the first lock body 121 is arranged on the through groove 111, that is, the first end of the first lock body 121 is connected to the inner side wall of the through groove 111, and the first lock body 121 can be flipped around the R axis in a direction away from the through groove 111 or in a direction close to the through groove 111, so that the first lock body 121 has a first state of being unfolded relative to the support plate 11 and a second state of being bent relative to the support plate 11, such as Figure 3 As shown, in the first state, the first lock body 121 can be embedded in the through groove 111 for easy transportation. Similarly, the second lock body 122 is arranged on the outer peripheral side of the support plate 11, and the second lock body 122 can be flipped around the R axis in a direction away from the through groove 111 or in a direction close to the through groove 111, so that the second lock body 122 has a first state of being unfolded relative to the support plate 11 and a second state of being bent relative to the support plate 11, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, in the first state, the thickness of the second lock body 122 can be set to be equal to the thickness of the support plate 11, and the second lock body 122 can be relatively flush with the support plate 11 for easy transportation. The second end of the first lock body 121 is connected to the second lock body 122 by a snap connection, so that the first lock body 121, the second lock body 122 and the support plate 11 cover a portion of the baffle 13 within the accommodating cavity 123.

[0044] In some embodiments, the first lock body 121 includes a first connecting plate 1211, a second connecting plate 1212 and a third connecting plate 1213. The first connecting plate 1211, the second connecting plate 1212 and the third connecting plate 1213 are connected in sequence. The first connecting plate 1211 is connected to the support plate 11 on the side away from the second connecting plate 1212. The second connecting plate 1212 is vertically clamped and connected to the card slot 131 to limit the displacement of the baffle 13 in the vertical direction.

[0045] Specifically, the second connecting plate 1212 has a first height in the vertical direction, and the card slot 131 has a first width in the vertical direction. The first height is equal to the first width. When the first lock body 121 and the second lock body 122 are relatively fixed, the displacement of the baffle 13 in the vertical direction can be limited to prevent the baffle 13 from shaking relative to the support plate 11, thereby providing good protection for the packaged object 4.

[0046] In one embodiment, a side of the first connecting plate 1211 away from the second connecting plate 1212 is connected to the inner side wall of the through slot 111 so that the first connecting plate 1211 and the second connecting plate 1212 can be received in the through slot 111 for easy transportation.

[0047] Furthermore, if Figure 2 As shown, the first connecting plate 1211 and the third connecting plate 1213 are arranged opposite to each other in the horizontal direction. The third connecting plate 1213 is provided with an opening 1213a that communicates with the accommodating cavity 123. The second lock body 122 is provided with a locking tongue 1222 that is snap-connected with the opening 1213a. The locking tongue 1222 abuts against the side of the baffle 13 facing away from the support plate 11. By snapping the locking tongue 1222 of the second lock body 122 with the opening 1213a of the third connecting plate 1213, a detachable connection between the first lock body 121 and the second lock body 122 can be achieved. Figure 5 As shown, during the assembly process, the baffle 13 is first placed on the side of the support plate 11 facing the object 4 to be packaged. Then, the third connecting plate 1213 is flipped along the fold between it and the second connecting plate 1212 toward the accommodating cavity 123. The second lock body 122 is then flipped along the fold between it and the support plate 11 toward the accommodating cavity 123. The locking tongue 1222 of the second lock body 122 is inserted into the opening 1213a of the third connecting plate 1213, thereby achieving a fixed connection between the first lock body 121 and the second lock body 122. If the protective front baffle needs to be removed, the locking tongue 1222 of the second lock body 122 can be pulled out of the opening 1213a of the third connecting plate 1213 to remove the baffle.

[0048] Furthermore, the second lock body 122 includes a fourth connecting plate 1221, which is connected to the support plate 11. The end of the fourth connecting plate 1221, which is away from the support plate 11, is bent twice in a direction close to the accommodating cavity 123 to form a locking tongue 1222. As shown in the figure, the locking tongue 1222 can be configured as a hook or an angled shape. By snapping the locking tongue 1222 of the second lock body 122 into the opening 1213a of the third connecting plate 1213, a detachable connection between the first lock body 121 and the second lock body 122 can be achieved.

[0049] In some embodiments, the second connecting plate 1212 is provided with a positioning groove 1212a, which communicates with the opening 1213a. The positioning groove 1212a can be shaped like a semicircle, a triangle, a trapezoid, a square, or the like, and is not specifically limited in this application. The positioning groove 1212a serves to center and position the first and second lock bodies 121, 122 during the engagement process.

[0050] In some embodiments, a boss 112 is provided on the side of the support plate 11 facing away from the locking structure 12. The length direction of the boss 112 is parallel to the vertical direction, and the orthographic projection of the boss 112 on the support plate 11 overlaps the orthographic projection of the baffle 13 on the support plate 11. Therefore, when subjected to external impact, the ridges can also provide a certain degree of cushioning effect and enhance the overall structural strength of the support plate 11.

[0051] In some embodiments, a plurality of baffles 13 may be provided, and the plurality of baffles 13 are arranged at intervals in the horizontal direction. As shown in the figure, in one example, two baffles 13 are provided, and the two baffles 13 are respectively provided on both sides of the support plate 11, thereby improving the uniformity of the force applied to the support plate 11.

[0052] In some embodiments, the baffle 13 is provided with multiple slots 131, and the locking structure 12 is provided with multiple slots 131 in a one-to-one correspondence. As shown in the figure, in one example, the baffle 13 is provided with a slot 131 at each end along its length, and the locking structure 12 is provided with two slots 131 in a one-to-one correspondence. The second lock bodies 122 of the two locking structures 12 correspond to the slots 131 in a one-to-one correspondence and are engaged, thereby improving the uniformity of the force applied to the baffle 13.

[0053] The present application also provides a cushioning package, comprising the protective front baffle 1 as described above.

[0054] like Figure 6 As shown, the cushioning package further includes a first lining 2 and a second lining 3. The first lining is arranged on the top of the object to be packaged 4, and the second lining is arranged on the bottom of the object to be packaged 4, thereby providing cushioning and protection for the surrounding areas of the object to be packaged 4.
