[0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of photovoltaic module packaging, and in particular, to a packaging box for photovoltaic modules. Background Art

[0002] Packing boxes play an indispensable role in the transportation of photovoltaic modules. Usually, photovoltaic modules need to be packed into pallets in the factory and then loaded into containers for transportation. In the related art, the cover of the packing box is a snap-on type (refer to Figure 5 This increases the length and width of the packaging boxes. Furthermore, when multiple boxes are stacked in a container, gaps will exist between adjacent boxes. This gap also results in inefficient use of the container space, reducing the number of boxes that can be stacked and increasing the transportation cost of PV panels. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of the present disclosure is to provide a packaging box for photovoltaic modules, so as to further realize the rational utilization of container space by optimizing the box structure of the packaging box, reduce the transportation cost of photovoltaic modules, and further solve related technical problems.

[0004] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the present disclosure provides a packaging box for photovoltaic modules. The packaging box includes a shell and a top-sealing structure. The shell has a receiving groove opening upward and sidewalls circumferentially surrounding the receiving groove. The receiving groove is used to accommodate the photovoltaic module. The sidewalls are upright walls extending in a vertical direction. The top ends of the sidewalls have a vertically concave snap-in opening. The top-sealing structure includes a cover plate and a plug-in plate extending vertically from the cover plate toward the shell. The cover plate covers the opening. The plug-in plate is pluggable with the snap-in opening. The top-sealing structure has a vertical projection located inward of a vertical projection of the shell, or the top-sealing structure has a vertical projection that overlaps with the vertical projection of the shell.

[0005] Optionally, the side wall includes two first side walls opposite to each other along a first horizontal direction and two second side walls opposite to each other along a second horizontal direction, the two first side walls and the two second side walls circumferentially surround the accommodating groove, the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction, and the bayonet is formed at the top end of the first side wall and / or the second side wall.

[0006] Optionally, a top end of at least one of the second side walls is lower than a top end of the first side walls in a vertical direction, so as to form the bayonet between the top end of at least one of the second side walls and the two first side walls.

[0007] Optionally, the top ends of the two second side walls form the snap-in, the plug-in boards are provided at both ends of the cover plate along the second direction, the accommodating grooves are used to stack and arrange the photovoltaic components along the second direction, and the plug-in boards and the snap-in are constructed to limit the displacement of the top sealing structure along the first direction through the two second side walls, and limit the displacement of the top sealing structure along the second direction through the photovoltaic components between the two plug-in boards.

[0008] Optionally, the two first side walls have the same height, and the two second side walls have the same height.

[0009] Optionally, the bayonet is rectangular.

[0010] Optionally, a ratio of the height of the second side wall to the height of the first side wall is 1:1.05-1.3.

[0011] Optionally, the packaging box further includes a connecting structure for connecting the shell and the top sealing structure.

[0012] Optionally, the connection structure includes a strapping belt, which is arranged around the top sealing structure and the circumference of the shell.

[0026] The following describes the specific embodiments of the present disclosure in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present disclosure and are not intended to limit the present disclosure.

[0027] In this disclosure, unless otherwise specified, "inside" and "outside" refer to the inside and outside of the corresponding component outline. Furthermore, it should be noted that terms such as "first" and "second" are used to distinguish one element from another. A first direction refers to the direction indicated by X in the drawings, and a second direction refers to the direction indicated by Y in the drawings.

[0028] According to the first embodiment of the present disclosure, Figure 1-Figure 4As shown, a packaging box 100 for a photovoltaic module 200 is provided. The packaging box 100 may include a shell 1 and a top sealing structure 2. The shell 1 has a receiving groove 11 opening upward and a side wall 12 surrounding the receiving groove 11 along the circumference. The receiving groove 11 is used to place the photovoltaic module 200. The side wall 12 is an upright wall extending in the vertical direction. The top of the side wall 12 has a snap-in 13 concave downward in the vertical direction. The top sealing structure 2 may include a cover plate 21 and a plug-in plate 22 extending vertically from the cover plate 21 toward the shell 1. The cover plate 21 covers the opening. The plug-in plate 22 is plugged into the snap-in 13. The projection of the top sealing structure 2 in the vertical direction is located on the inner side of the projection of the shell 1 in the vertical direction. Alternatively, the projection of the top sealing structure 2 in the vertical direction coincides with the projection of the shell 1 in the vertical direction.

[0029] When the packaging box 100 provided by the above technical solution is used, multiple photovoltaic modules 200 can be stacked and arranged in the receiving groove 11 through the opening, and further closed and packaged by the cover plate 21 and the plug-in plate 22 of the top sealing structure 2. The top sealing structure 2 can be connected with the bayonet 13 on the shell 1 through the plug-in plate 22, and the top sealing structure 2 can also cover the opening of the shell 1 through the cover plate 21. On this basis, the projection of the top sealing structure 2 in the vertical direction is located on the inner side of the projection of the shell 1 in the vertical direction, or the projection of the top sealing structure 2 in the vertical direction coincides with the projection of the shell 1 in the vertical direction. This enables the top sealing structure 2 provided by the present disclosure to achieve the corresponding purpose of closing the opening of the shell 1 without increasing the overall size of the packaging box 100, so as to complete the packaging of the photovoltaic modules 200, and effectively avoid the problem of increased size of the packaging box 100 caused by the snap-fit ​​cover plate 21 in the related art. Furthermore, this type of packaging box 100 can avoid the problem of gaps between adjacent packaging boxes 100 due to the protruding parts of the top sealing structure 2 when they are stacked in the container later, thereby wasting the transportation space in the container.

[0030] In some embodiments, as Figure 2As shown, the side wall 12 may include two first side walls 121 opposite to each other along a first horizontal direction and two second side walls 122 opposite to each other along a second horizontal direction. The two first side walls 121 and the two second side walls 122 form a receiving groove 11 along the circumferential direction. The first direction is perpendicular to the second direction. The bayonet 13 is formed at the top of the first side wall 121 and / or the second side wall 122. It should be noted that the photovoltaic component 200 is usually constructed as a rectangular plate. The shape of the receiving groove 11 formed by the first side wall 121 and the second side wall 122 in the technical solution provided by the present disclosure can be more suitable for the rectangular plate-shaped photovoltaic component 200, so that the photovoltaic component 200 can be more reasonably placed in the receiving groove 11. Of course, it is understandable that the enclosed position of the first side wall 121 and the second side wall 122 can be adjusted according to the actual shape of the photovoltaic component 200, and this is not limited here. Those skilled in the art can make adjustments according to actual conditions.

[0031] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 As shown, the top of at least one second side wall 122 is vertically lower than the top of the first side wall 121, forming a notch 13 between the top of the at least one second side wall 122 and the two first side walls 121. The formation of the notch 13 enables the shell 1 to provide a mounting position for the plug-in board 22 of the top seal structure 2, so that the packaging box 100 can be positioned relative to the photovoltaic modules 200 placed in the receiving groove 11 by the shell 1 and the top seal structure 2, thereby preventing the photovoltaic modules 200 from shaking and causing collision and damage between adjacent photovoltaic modules 200.

[0032] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 As shown, the top ends of the two second side walls 122 are each formed with a snap-in 13. Plug-in plates 22 are provided at both ends of the cover plate 21 along the second direction. The accommodating groove 11 is used to stack and arrange the photovoltaic modules 200 along the second direction. The plug-in plates 22 and the snap-in 13 are constructed to limit the displacement of the top sealing structure 2 along the first direction through the two second side walls 122, and to limit the displacement of the top sealing structure 2 along the second direction through the photovoltaic modules 200 between the two plug-in plates 22. This design can further enhance the protective effect of the packaging box 100 on the photovoltaic modules 200, and improve the reliability of the photovoltaic modules 200 when packaged using the packaging box 100.

[0033] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 As shown, the two first side walls 121 are of the same height. The two second side walls 122 are of the same height. This design allows the two bayonet openings 13 formed between the first side walls 121 and the second side walls 122 to be symmetrical, facilitating stable engagement with the top seal structure 2 later and improving the reliability of the packaging box 100.

[0034] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the bayonet 13 is rectangular. The rectangular bayonet 13 simplifies the manufacturing process of the casing 1 of the packaging box 100 and is more compatible with the structural form of the photovoltaic module 200. Furthermore, the rectangular bayonet 13 allows the plug-in plate 22 of the top seal structure 2 to be designed as a corresponding rectangular plate, thus simplifying the manufacturing process of the top seal structure 2 of the packaging box 100. Of course, it is understood that the bayonet 13 can also have other shapes, which are not limited here, and those skilled in the art can adjust according to actual circumstances.

[0035] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 As shown, the ratio of the height of the second sidewall 122 to the height of the first sidewall 121 is 1:1.05-1.3. For example, the height of the second sidewall 122 can be designed to be 1035 mm, and the height of the first sidewall 121 can be designed to be 1135 mm. Within this range, the depth of the bayonet 13 formed between the first and second sidewalls 121, 122 is suitable, facilitating assembly of the housing 1 and the top seal structure 2.

[0036] In some embodiments, packaging box 100 further includes a connecting structure (not shown) for connecting shell 1 and top seal 2. The provision of the connecting structure further secures shell 1 and top seal 2 of packaging box 100, ensuring a reliable connection between them and achieving the packaging purpose of photovoltaic modules 200. The provision of the connecting structure further improves the packaging reliability of packaging box 100.

[0037] In one specific embodiment, the connection structure may include a strapping tape arranged circumferentially around the top seal structure 2 and the housing 1. This arrangement improves the reliability of the connection structure. Of course, it is understood that the connection structure may also be a binding rope, etc., and this is not a limitation here. Persons skilled in the art may adjust it according to actual circumstances.

[0038] In some embodiments, the housing 1 and top seal 2 are made of cardboard. Cardboard facilitates cutting and folding of the housing 1 and top seal 2, and further forms the packaging box 100. Furthermore, using cardboard not only ensures transport reliability but also reduces the production cost of the packaging box 100, further reducing the transport cost of the photovoltaic modules 200.

[0039] The preferred embodiments of the present disclosure are described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present disclosure is not limited to the specific details of the above embodiments. Within the technical concept of the present disclosure, various simple modifications can be made to the technical solutions of the present disclosure, and these simple modifications all fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0040] It should also be noted that the various specific technical features described in the above specific embodiments can be combined in any suitable manner without contradiction. To avoid unnecessary repetition, the present disclosure will not further describe various possible combinations.

[0041] In addition, the various embodiments of the present disclosure may be arbitrarily combined, and as long as they do not violate the concept of the present disclosure, they should also be regarded as the contents disclosed by the present disclosure.
