DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0026] In order to further understand the features, technical means and specific objectives and functions achieved by the present invention, the present invention will be further described below in conjunction with embodiments and drawings.
[0027] This embodiment provides a foldable package for fragile items. Figure 1 As shown, the packaging box includes 1: a folding surface; 2: an inserting tongue; 3: an incision; 4: two side folding surfaces; 5: two slides; 6: a panel with a rectangular cavity; and 7: a fold. The inserting tongue 2 is connected to the first folding surface 11; the panel with the rectangular cavity is connected to the end of the folding surface 16 with the incision 3, away from the incision 3; the side folding surface 6 is connected to the slide via a fold 78; and the side folding surface 4 is connected to both sides of the edge of the folding surface 6, with the side folding surface 4 located on the side of the incision of the sixth folding surface 16.
[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, during the folding process, the two carrier sheets 5 are folded upward by 90° along the preset fold line 78 .
[0029] like Figure 3 As shown, after completing Figure 2 After the initial folding step shown, the packaging box of the present invention further forms its structural features through specific folding operations. Specifically, in the folding process of the side folding surface 4, the following steps are performed:
[0030] Specifically, the two side folding surfaces 4 are folded upwards by 90° along the preset folding lines 74 to ensure that the edges of the folded side folding surfaces 4 are in close contact with the sixth folding surface.
[0031] It should be noted that the preset folds 78 provided between the two side folding surfaces 4 and the two carriers 5 are aligned with the two side edges of the rectangular cavity provided on the enclosure 6 in the width direction, and the plane on which the carrier 5 is located after folding is aligned with the two side edges of the rectangular cavity on the enclosure 6 in the width direction.
[0032] like Figure 4 As shown, in Figure 3 Based on the folding process, the sixth folding surface 16 with a rectangular cavity is folded upward 135° along the preset fold 76, so that the edge of the side folding surface 4 contacts the two sides of the enclosure, and the carrier 5 passes through the rectangular cavity, so that the diagonal lines on the plane where the carriers 5 on both sides are located are located in the plane where the rectangular cavity is located. After this folding process is completed, the enclosure 6 is folded backward 135° along the preset fold 75, so that the side folding surfaces on both sides contact the fifth folding surface 15, and the sixth folding surface 16 is perpendicular to the fifth folding surface 15. The two sides of the enclosure 6, the two sides of the sixth folding surface 16 and the side folding surface 4 constitute a triangular support structure.
[0033] Without a triangular support structure, the packaging box is prone to deformation during transportation. First, deformation can directly damage fragile items. During transportation, bumps in the vehicle, stacking of goods, and impacts during handling can all cause the box to deform. If the box is not strong enough to withstand these external forces, the fragile items inside may be directly impacted, resulting in cracks or shattering. This damage is often irreversible, causing financial losses and inconvenience for both merchants and consumers. Second, deformation of the box can affect the protective performance of the cushioning materials inside. Cushioning materials, such as foam, bubble wrap, and paper scraps, are crucial for protecting fragile items from impact. However, when the box deforms, these materials may become compressed or displaced, reducing their protective effectiveness. This makes fragile items more vulnerable to damage during transportation. Furthermore, deformation can reduce the stability of fragile items. A well-designed box should securely hold fragile items, preventing them from moving or rolling during transportation. However, deformation undermines this stability, and fragile items may slide or flip inside the box, increasing the risk of damage. Finally, deformed packaging can incur additional costs. Merchants may need to repack or dispose of deformed boxes, which not only increases logistics costs but can also cause delays. Furthermore, if fragile items are damaged during transport, merchants may also be liable for compensation, further increasing costs.
[0034] like Figures 5 and 6 As shown, in Figure 4Based on the folding process, the fourth folding surface 14 is folded upward by 90° along the preset folding line 74 until the fourth folding surface 14 contacts the inner side surface of the enclosure 6. This step ensures the stable positioning of the fourth folding surface 14 and provides the necessary structural support for subsequent folding operations. After the fourth folding surface 14 is successfully folded and contacts the enclosure 6, the third folding surface 13 is folded. The third folding surface 13 is folded upward along the preset folding line 73 until the lower edge of the third folding surface 13 contacts the upper edge of the two side carriers 5. This operation not only enhances the structural integrity of the packaging box, but also provides a preliminary folding form for forming the buffer space 8. Finally, the second folding surface 12 is folded downward by 90° along the preset folding line 12 until the second folding surface 12 contacts the lower edge of the two side carriers 5, and the first folding surface 11 is folded by 90° along the preset folding line 71 and contacts the fifth folding surface 15. This operation is the key to forming the buffer space 8, because the folding of the second folding surface 12 will directly lead to the formation of the required space on both sides of the packaging box in the width direction.
[0035] The cushioning space on the sides of the packaging box does not contain filler material. This design offers a number of benefits. First, it provides spatial flexibility, allowing adjustments to the specific size and shape of the items to accommodate diverse packaging needs. This flexibility helps streamline the packaging process, particularly on automated packaging lines, where it can improve packaging efficiency. Second, omitting filler material can significantly reduce packaging costs, a significant cost saving in large-scale production and shipping. Furthermore, the weight of the box without filler is lighter, helping to reduce shipping costs, especially for air freight or where weight restrictions are strict. This design also facilitates inspection and monitoring of the contents, allowing direct visibility and timely resolution of potential issues. For items that require additional protection or already have a certain degree of rigidity, the cushioning space without filler is sufficient, preventing them from being crushed during transport. Environmental friendliness is another significant advantage. Reducing or eliminating filler material reduces environmental impact, especially when recyclable or biodegradable materials are selected. Furthermore, boxes without filler are more easily recycled and reused.
[0036] like Figure 7 As shown, after completing Figures 5 and 6 After the folding process shown, the foldable packaging for fragile items of the present invention enters the final assembly stage. Specifically, the tongue 2 connected to one end of the first folding surface 11 is precisely inserted into the pre-set slot 9 according to the designed guide. This step is a key part of the entire folding process, ensuring that the various parts of the packaging box are firmly connected together to form a complete and structurally stable packaging unit.
[0037] After completing the above steps, the two side edges of the packaging box in the width direction, due to the successive folding of the second folding surface 12, the third folding surface 13, and the fourth folding surface 14, combine with the two side carrier sheets 5 to form a buffer space 8. The design of this buffer space 8 not only provides the necessary protection for the fragile items inside during transportation, preventing damage caused by external impact, but also ensures that the folding process of the packaging box is simple and efficient through the coordination of precise folding angles and preset creases, making it easy to mass-produce and use. The accommodating space formed by folding the second folding surface 12, the third folding surface 13, the fourth folding surface 14, the fifth folding surface 15 and the two side carriers 5, and the buffer space 8 formed by folding the two side edges of the folding surface in the width direction and the side folding surfaces 4 on both sides, the function of the two side carriers 5 is to fix the transported fragile goods when they are placed in the accommodating cavity. During transportation, if the packaging box is subjected to impact forces on both sides in the width direction, the buffer space 8 on the two outer sides relative to the width direction can buffer the fragile goods at both ends in the width direction, thereby protecting the two sides of the transported fragile goods. When the folded package of the fragile goods is subjected to forces from both sides in non-width directions, the triangular support structure in the buffer space 8 utilizes the inherent stability of the triangle. When the packaging box is subjected to forces from both sides in non-width directions, the triangular support structure can maintain the overall stability of the packaging box, avoid structural deformation or damage caused by external forces, and further ensure the safety of the fragile goods inside.
[0038] In some embodiments, the foldable package for fragile items may also be made of other materials to adapt to different application scenarios.
[0039] Honeycomb cardboard offers significant advantages when transporting fragile goods. Its unique honeycomb structure provides exceptional compressive strength and rigidity, effectively withstanding and distributing the impact and pressure encountered during transportation, thereby protecting fragile goods from damage. Furthermore, honeycomb cardboard's lightweight nature makes it easier to handle and transport while minimizing its environmental impact. As an environmentally friendly material made from renewable resources, honeycomb cardboard is easily recyclable, and its manufacturing process is also relatively environmentally friendly, reducing pollution during production. It also has excellent cushioning properties, making it particularly suitable for protecting fragile items such as glass and ceramics. Honeycomb cardboard's high customizability allows for the design of optimal packaging solutions tailored to specific product needs. In some cases, it can even serve as a lightweight alternative to wooden pallets or as a lining material, providing additional protection and padding, reducing reliance on traditional plastic fillers. Although honeycomb cardboard is sensitive to moisture and may experience performance degradation in humid environments, its performance in dry environments makes it an ideal choice for transporting fragile goods.
[0040] The utility model provides a folding package for fragile items, which significantly improves the overall stability and structural strength by cleverly arranging triangular support structures in the buffer structure on both sides in the width direction. These triangular support structures not only utilize the inherent stability of the triangle to ensure the integrity of the packaging box when subjected to external force impact, but also provide effective buffering protection within a certain force range, reducing potential damage to the fragile items inside. This design focuses on cost-effectiveness, adopts low-cost materials and simplified production processes, and achieves the dual advantages of high support strength and excellent buffering effect, while simplifying user operation and improving the efficiency of packaging and unpacking. The packaging box implemented by the technical solution of the utility model can not only protect and fix the products in the packaging box and ensure their safety during transportation, but also the combination of the buffer space on both sides and the triangular structure meets the high requirements for strength and stability during logistics transportation, providing users with an economical and efficient fragile packaging solution.

We explicitly point out that any reasonable modification, equivalent replacement or technical improvement under the guidance of the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present utility model. This means that as long as these changes do not deviate from the core idea and basic function of the invention, they should be protected by patent rights. The scope of protection of the present invention should be broad, including all direct and obvious variants and non-obvious innovations that technical experts can reasonably deduce based on the disclosure of the present invention. This broad protection is intended to promote further research and development based on the present invention, while ensuring that its innovation and practicality are fully legally protected.
