[0040] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present disclosure can be combined with each other.

[0041] Air conditioners need to be packed and boxed as they roll off the assembly line. This process typically involves installing the packing blocks on the air conditioner and then placing the air conditioner and the packing blocks together in a carton. The packing blocks must not only have a certain level of structural strength but also sufficient shock absorption properties.

[0042] The related art discloses a pearl cotton air conditioner indoor unit packaging cushion seat, which includes a left pad body and a right pad body. The left pad body and the right pad body are used in conjunction with each other and have the same structure. The inner lining of the left pad body forms a accommodating cavity that is compatible with the end of the air conditioner indoor unit, so that the end of the air conditioner indoor unit is sleeved in the accommodating cavity. The inner side of the accommodating cavity is provided with a cylindrical buffer rod integrally formed with the left pad body. The outer end face of the left pad body is provided with a quadrangular prism buffer pad extending from its end face. A front abutment and a rear abutment are provided between the left pad body and the right pad body, and the front abutment and the rear abutment are embedded in the inner bottom surface of the left pad body and the right pad body. The packaging cushion of the related art uses a single material and improves the shock absorption performance by setting four cylindrical buffer rods on the structure. The problem of the related art is that after the packaging cushion is provided with the four cylindrical buffer rod structure, although the cushioning performance of the packaging cushion is improved overall, the overall structural strength of the packaging cushion is reduced. Especially at the position where the four-cylinder buffer rod is set, the packing pad is easy to break. In other words, when the packing pad is made of the same material, although the buffering performance of the packing pad is improved, the structural strength is reduced.

[0043] In order to improve the cushioning performance of the air conditioner packaging component while still having a certain structural strength, the air conditioner packaging component is combined with Figures 1 to 8 As shown, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a side pad for packaging an air conditioner, wherein the side pad 100 includes a side pad body 110, a first supporting rib 120 and a shock-absorbing member 130, wherein the first supporting rib 120 is an integral structure with the side pad body 110 and is arranged along the transverse direction of the side pad body 110, and the first supporting rib 120 is constructed with a first connecting structure 121; the shock-absorbing member 130 is provided with a second connecting structure 131, and the first connecting structure 121 cooperates with the second connecting structure 131 to connect the shock-absorbing member 130 to the first supporting rib 120.

[0044] The air conditioner described in the embodiment of the present disclosure refers to the indoor unit of the air conditioner.

[0045] The side pads provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure can be used to package both vertical and wall-mounted air conditioners. When packaging a vertical air conditioner, the side pads are vertically attached to the side walls of the vertical air conditioner in a standing position. When packaging a wall-mounted air conditioner, the side pads are attached to the top, top, front, or rear side of the wall-mounted air conditioner in a horizontal position.

[0046] The side block 100 includes a side block body 110, which is used to shield or cover a larger side of the air conditioner. The body 110 has a larger length and a smaller thickness. The body 110 has a concave shape, with the concave dimension measuring the depth of the side block. When the air conditioner is packaged, it is positioned within the concave portion of the body 110.

[0047] Combine Figure 2 、 Figure 3 As shown, the side pad further includes a first supporting rib 120 , and the first supporting rib 120 and the side pad body 110 are an integral structure, which can improve the overall structural strength of the side pad.

[0048] The first supporting rib 120 is arranged along the width direction of the side pad and is located on the concave side of the side pad. When the air conditioner is packaged, the first supporting rib 120 or the auxiliary structure connected to the first supporting rib 120 contacts the air conditioner to support the air conditioner.

[0049] The first supporting rib 120 is constructed with a first connecting structure 121, which is connected to the shock absorber 130 via the first connecting structure 121. The shock absorber 130, as the aforementioned auxiliary structure, contacts the air conditioner. Specifically, the second connecting structure 131 of the shock absorber 130 is connected to the first connecting structure 121 of the first supporting structure. Exemplarily, the first connecting structure 121 is a snap-fit ​​portion, and the second connecting structure 131 is a snap-fit ​​portion adapted to the snap-fit ​​portion. More specifically, one of the first connecting structure 121 and the second connecting structure 131 is a slot, and the other is a block.

[0050] When packaging the air conditioner, the shock absorber 130 may be connected to the air conditioner first and then installed as a whole into the side pad body 110, or the shock absorber 130 and the side pad body 110 may be assembled first and then installed into the air conditioner.

[0051] The side pad body 110 and the first supporting rib 120 are an integrated structure, and the connection between the side pad body 110 and the first supporting rib 120 makes the side pad have a higher structural strength; a shock-absorbing member 130 is provided on the first supporting rib 120 to improve the overall shock-absorbing performance of the packaging assembly; since the shock-absorbing member 130 and the first supporting rib 120 are split structures, it is conducive to the assembly of the packaging assembly and facilitates the packaging of the air conditioner; in addition, since the shock-absorbing member 130 and the side pad body 110 are split structures, different shock-absorbing members 130 can be used with different side pad bodies 110, and the side pad can be adapted to more different types of air conditioners.

[0052] Optionally, the side pad body 110 and the first supporting rib 120 are made of EPS, and the shock absorbing component 130 is made of EPE.

[0053] EPS (Expandable Polystyrene) is a polyethylene foam material with excellent and long-lasting thermal insulation, unique cushioning and shock resistance, aging resistance and waterproof properties, and is suitable as the side pad body 110 and the first supporting rib 120. However, EPS is not impact-resistant, brittle, and has low tensile strength. The cushioning performance of EPS material is good for a single drop, but the cushioning performance of the second and subsequent drops will drop sharply. EPE (Expandable Polyethylene) is a new type of environmentally friendly packaging material with high toughness and is not easy to break. It can still maintain good cushioning performance after multiple drops. The shock absorber 130 is made of EPE, which can make up for the shortcomings of EPS material and improve the multiple drop cushioning performance of the packaging component. Especially in the scenario of multiple sorting in logistics, the side pads can better protect the air conditioner.

[0054] Optionally, the first connection structure 121 includes a connection groove 122 constructed on the first supporting rib 120, and the second connection structure includes a plug-in portion 132; the plug-in portion 132 is inserted into the connection groove 122 to make the shock absorber 130 detachably connected to the first supporting rib 120.

[0055] The shock absorbing member 130 and the first supporting rib 120 are connected in a plug-in structure, which can make it easier to install the shock absorbing member 130 or the shock absorbing member 130 and the air conditioner as a whole on the side pad body 110.

[0056] Optionally, the connecting groove 122 is provided with a positioning structure 123 , and the plug-in portion 132 is provided with a positioning matching portion 133 that matches the positioning structure 123 . The positioning structure 123 matches the positioning matching portion 133 to limit the position of the plug-in portion 132 in the connecting groove 122 .

[0057] During the assembly of the shock absorber 130 to the side block body 110, if the shock absorber 130 is not installed in the correct position, the force point of the air conditioner may be misaligned. Therefore, the connection groove 122 is provided with a positioning structure 123 to locate the installation position of the shock absorber 130. This improves the assembly accuracy between the shock absorber 130 and the side block body 110.

[0058] Optionally, the positioning structure 123 includes a first wave structure along the length direction of the connecting groove 122, and the positioning matching portion 133 includes a second wave structure corresponding to the first wave structure, and the first wave structure and the second wave structure are linearly matched.

[0059] The first connecting rib is arranged along the width direction of the side pad, and the opening side of the connecting groove 122 faces the concave part of the pad body, and the connecting groove 122 extends along the width direction of the pad body. The length direction of the connecting groove 122 is also the width direction of the side pad body 110. One or two opposing walls of the connecting groove 122 are constructed with a first wave structure with alternating concave and convex distributions. The positioning structure 123 of the shock absorber 130 includes a second wave structure with alternating concave and convex distributions arranged on one side or both sides of the plug-in portion 132. After the plug-in portion 132 of the shock absorber 130 is inserted into the positioning groove, the shock absorber 130 cannot move along the length direction of the connecting groove 122.

[0060] With this arrangement, on the one hand, the wave structure can increase the contact area between the shock absorber 130 and the side pad body 110 so that the two are more tightly combined. On the other hand, the ridge distribution can be reduced, thereby alleviating or avoiding the first positioning rib from falling off.

[0061] Optionally, combined Figure 4 、 Figure 5As shown, the shock absorber 130 further includes a supporting portion 134 , which is connected to the second connecting structure 131 , and at least a portion of the supporting portion 134 extends beyond the connecting groove 122 .

[0062] The abutting portion 134 of the shock absorber 130 extends beyond the connecting groove 122. When the air conditioner is packaged, the air conditioner contacts the abutting portion 134 of the shock absorber 130 rather than directly contacting the first supporting rib 120. During transportation or when the air conditioner is dropped, the air conditioner has a large inertia. The contact between the air conditioner and the shock absorber 130 allows the shock absorber 130 to fully exert its shock-absorbing function, thereby reducing or preventing damage to the first supporting rib 120 and the side pad body 110.

[0063] Optionally, the side pad is constructed with a plurality of first supporting ribs 120 , which are arranged at intervals, and the side pad includes a plurality of shock absorbers 130 , which are arranged corresponding to the plurality of first supporting ribs 120 .

[0064] By adopting such a configuration, the shock-absorbing and energy-absorbing effect of the packaging assembly can be further improved.

[0065] Optionally, the side pad also includes a second support rib 140, which is an integral structure with the side pad body 110 and is arranged along the transverse direction of the side pad body 110. The second support rib 140 is spaced apart from the first support rib 120; wherein, an energy absorption groove 141 is provided at the free end of the second support rib 140.

[0066] The second support ribs 140 are integrally formed with the side block body 110, enhancing the structural strength of the side block and facilitating its processing and forming. The second support ribs 140 are arranged transversely along the side block body 110, roughly parallel to the first support ribs 120. The first support ribs 120 and second support ribs 140 are spaced apart to provide uniform support at multiple locations along the length of the air conditioner.

[0067] An energy absorption groove 141 is provided at the top of the second support rib 140. When the shock absorber 130 of the first support rib 120 is compressed to the limit, the energy absorption groove 141 at the top of the second support rib 140 can further absorb the kinetic energy of the air conditioner, thereby reducing or avoiding damage to the air conditioner and the packaging assembly.

[0068] With this arrangement, the packaging component can absorb energy in a gradient manner to cope with different bumps and drops encountered by the air conditioner.

[0069] Optionally, the side pad includes a plurality of second support ribs 140 , and the plurality of first support ribs 120 and the plurality of second support ribs 140 are arranged at intervals.

[0070] In this way, when the air conditioner encounters a minor impact, the multiple first support ribs 120 and the corresponding shock absorbers 130 can absorb energy and reduce shock. When the air conditioner encounters a major impact, the multiple second support ribs 140 and the corresponding energy-absorbing grooves 141 can absorb energy and reduce shock. This can provide better protection for the air conditioner.

[0071] Optionally, the side pad body 110 includes a bottom plate 111 and a side plate 112, and the side plate 112 is connected to the bottom plate 111; to form a receiving space together with the bottom plate 111; wherein the first support rib 120 is arranged on the inward side of the receiving space and is constructed into an arc shape.

[0072] The bottom plate 111 and side plates 112 of the side block together form a storage space for accommodating at least part of the air conditioner. This storage space is also the concave portion of the block body described above. The first support rib 120 is constructed in an arc shape to accommodate the shape of a floor-standing air conditioner indoor unit or a wall-mounted air conditioner indoor unit.

[0073] An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a packaging assembly, which includes the above-mentioned side pads 100 and bottom pads 200. The bottom pads 200 and the side pads 100 are spliced ​​together to enclose and define a packaging space.

[0074] The packaging assembly may include one side pad 100 as described above, or may include two side pads 100 as described above.

[0075] When the packaging assembly includes one side pad, the side pad is suitable for being arranged below the horizontally placed air conditioner. When the packaging assembly includes two side pads, the two side pads are arranged opposite to each other and spliced ​​together, with the air conditioner located between the two side pads.

[0076] The packaging assembly also includes a bottom pad, which is spliced ​​to one end of the side pad, thereby providing all-round coverage and protection for the air conditioner.

[0077] The packaging assembly provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure has the same technical effects as the above-mentioned packaging assembly because the packaging assembly includes the above-mentioned side pads.

[0078] Optionally, combined Figures 6 to 8 As shown, the bottom pad includes a bottom pad body 210 and a buffer member 220, wherein the bottom pad body 210 has an inwardly constructed accommodating groove on one side; the buffer member 220 is arranged in the accommodating groove, and the thickness of the buffer member 220 is less than the depth of the accommodating groove; wherein the material of the bottom pad body 210 is EPS, and the material of the buffer member 220 is EPE.

[0079] The bottom pad provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure can be used to package both vertical and wall-mounted air conditioners. When packaging a vertical air conditioner, the bottom pad is vertically attached to the top of the vertical air conditioner in a standing position. When packaging a wall-mounted air conditioner, the side pad is attached to one side of the wall-mounted air conditioner in a horizontal position.

[0080] The bottom pad includes a bottom pad body 210, which is used to shield or cover a smaller end portion of the air conditioner, and has similar length and width dimensions. The bottom pad is configured with a receiving groove for accommodating one end portion of the air conditioner.

[0081] The bottom block also includes a buffer member 220, which is positioned within the receiving groove. When packaging the air conditioner, the buffer member 220 directly contacts the air conditioner, while the bottom block body 210 indirectly contacts the air conditioner through the buffer member 220. When using the bottom block, the buffer member 220 can be first connected to the air conditioner and then assembled into the bottom block body 210. Alternatively, the buffer member 220 and bottom block body 210 can be assembled first and then installed into the air conditioner.

[0082] EPS material has excellent and long-lasting thermal insulation, unique cushioning and shock resistance, aging resistance and waterproofness, and is suitable as the bottom pad body 210. However, EPS is not impact-resistant, brittle, and has low tensile strength. The cushioning performance of EPS material is good for a single drop, but the cushioning performance of the second and subsequent drops will drop sharply. EPE material has high toughness and is not easy to break. It can still maintain good cushioning performance after multiple drops. The material of the buffer part 220 is EPE, which can make up for the shortcomings of EPS material and improve the multiple drop cushioning performance of the packaging component. Especially in the scenario of multiple sorting in logistics, the bottom pad can better protect the air conditioner.

[0083] The bottom pad provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure includes a bottom pad body 210 and a buffer member 220, which can improve the structural strength and shock absorption performance of the packaging assembly; since the buffer member 220 and the bottom pad body 210 are split structures, it is beneficial to the assembly of the packaging assembly and facilitates the packaging of the air conditioner; since the buffer member 220 and the bottom pad body 210 are split structures, different buffer members 220 can be used with different bottom pad bodies 210, and the bottom pad can be adapted to more different types of air conditioners.

[0084] Optionally, a first hollow hole 211 is defined at the bottom of the accommodating groove, and a second hollow hole 221 is defined in the buffer member 220 corresponding to the first hollow hole 211 .

[0085] The bottom of the receiving groove is provided with a first hollow hole 211, which extends through the bottom pad body 210. This reduces the material used in the bottom pad, thereby lowering its cost. The buffer member 220 is provided with a second hollow hole 221, which extends through the buffer member 220. This reduces the material used in the buffer member 220, thereby lowering its cost. Furthermore, the first and second hollow holes 211, 221 allow for deformation of the buffer member 220, thereby improving its shock absorption and energy absorption capabilities.

[0086] Optionally, the accommodating groove is configured with a positioning portion 213 , and the buffer member 220 is provided with a limiting portion 222 . The positioning portion 213 cooperates with the limiting portion 222 to limit the position of the buffer member 220 in the accommodating groove.

[0087] In some cases, the position where the air conditioner fits into the bottom block is not centrally or axially symmetrical. Therefore, the buffer member 220, which mates with one end of the air conditioner, also needs to have a shape that mates with one end of the air conditioner. If the buffer member 220 is not properly attached to the bottom block body 210, the force applied to the air conditioner may be misaligned. Therefore, the receiving groove is provided with a positioning portion 213, and the buffer member 220 is provided with a limiting portion 222. This allows the buffer member 220 to be positioned in its installation position, thereby improving the assembly accuracy between the buffer member 220 and the bottom block body 210.

[0088] Optionally, the positioning portion 213 includes a positioning groove that is recessed radially outward along the accommodating groove, and the limiting portion 222 includes a positioning protrusion that is provided corresponding to the positioning groove.

[0089] The form that the locating projection cooperates with the locating groove is easy to identify and can play a good positioning effect. In addition, the form that the locating groove and the locating projection cooperate can also stop the rotation of the buffer member 220 in the accommodating groove.

[0090] Optionally, the positioning portion 213 includes a positioning protrusion that protrudes radially inward along the accommodating groove, and the limiting portion 222 includes a positioning groove that is provided corresponding to the positioning protrusion.

[0091] The form that the locating projection cooperates with the locating groove is easy to identify and can play a good positioning effect. In addition, the form that the locating groove and the locating projection cooperate can also stop the rotation of the buffer member 220 in the accommodating groove.

[0092] Optionally, the bottom pad body 210 has a plurality of corners, the accommodating grooves form a plurality of positioning grooves corresponding to the plurality of corners, and the buffer member 220 is provided with a plurality of positioning protrusions correspondingly.

[0093] In most cases, the bottom pad is square or rectangular and has four corners. In most cases, the cross-section of the air conditioner is a circular or elliptical shape. Therefore, the four corners of the bottom pad have more space. Constructing accommodating grooves at the corners of the bottom pad can fully utilize the space of the bottom pad, thereby reducing the length and width of the bottom pad. The buffer 220 is provided with multiple positioning protrusions, which can increase the contact area between the buffer 220 and the sidewalls of the accommodating groove, thereby improving the structural strength of the buffer 220 and the bottom pad body 210.

[0094] Optionally, the buffer member 220 further includes a buffer reinforcement portion 223 , which protrudes from the buffer member 220 in a direction away from the accommodating groove, and is located between two adjacent positioning protrusions.

[0095] The buffer reinforcement 223 is positioned higher within the receiving groove and comes into contact with the air conditioner first. This creates a gradient in the cushioning provided by the buffer element 220: the buffer reinforcement 223 provides the first cushioning, followed by the remainder of the buffer element 220, and finally by the bottom pad body 210. The buffer reinforcement 223 is located between two adjacent positioning protrusions, ensuring a more even distribution of the buffer reinforcements, thereby better distributing pressure.

[0096] Optionally, an energy absorbing hole 214 is formed on a surface of the bottom pad body 210 away from the accommodating groove and corresponding to the buffer reinforcement portion 223 .

[0097] In this case, the buffer reinforcement portion 223 is shaped like a cantilever. Firstly, this increases the deformation space of the buffer reinforcement portion 223 in the depth direction of the accommodating groove, thereby improving the cushioning effect of the buffer member 220. Secondly, the energy-absorbing holes 214 provided in the bottom pad body 210 can improve the impact absorption capability of the bottom pad body 210 and reduce the material consumption of the bottom pad body 210.

[0098] Optionally, the size of the buffer reinforcement portion 223 is larger than the size of the energy absorbing hole 214 .

[0099] In this way, the bottom of the two radial ends of the buffer reinforcement part 223 along the energy absorbing hole 214 are supported by parts of the bottom pad body 210, which can increase the maximum supporting force of the buffer reinforcement part 223 on the air conditioner.

[0100] Optionally, the energy absorbing hole 214 passes through the bottom pad body 210 .

[0101] In this way, the deformation space of the buffer reinforcement portion 223 can be further increased, thereby reducing the material consumption of the bottom pad body 210 .

[0102] Optionally, a material reduction hole 215 is opened at the bottom of the bottom pad body 210 , and the material reduction hole 215 is located between two adjacent energy absorption holes 214 .

[0103] The bottom pad body 210 is provided with a material reduction hole 215 , which can reduce the material used in the bottom pad body 210 and thus reduce the cost of the bottom pad.
