AI Technical Summary
Commercially available cardboard boxes lack a positioning function when the lid is closed, which necessitates the addition of accessories such as magnets or clips, resulting in complex processes and high costs.
Design a functional card box. The lid and body are closed and positioned by a structure of elastic ears and a locking slot. The elastic ears are raised and extend beyond the outer side of the box body in a natural state, and are locked into the locking slot to close the lid. The lid can be opened by manually compressing the elastic ears to disengage them from the locking slot.
It achieves easy closure and positioning between the lid and the body, simplifies the manufacturing process, reduces costs, facilitates material recycling, and avoids the use of additional accessories.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of paper box technology, and more particularly to a functional card box. Background Technology
[0002] Some products use cardboard boxes for packaging. However, the cardboard boxes on the market do not have a positioning function when the lid is closed. In order to position the lid on the box body, it is necessary to add magnets or buckles to close and position the lid and the box body. This has the disadvantages of complex process and high cost. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a functional card box that adds a closing and positioning function between the lid and the body, thereby reducing costs.
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, a functional card box provided by this utility model is provided, comprising a box body and a box lid. The box lid includes a top panel, side panels respectively connected to both sides of the top panel, and a front panel connected between the side panels and one side of the top panel. One side of the top panel is connected to the box body. Flexible ears are provided on both outer sides of the box body. One end of the flexible ear is raised and extends beyond the outer side of the box body. The side panel has a slot corresponding to the flexible ear. When the box lid is closed on the box body, the flexible ear is engaged in the slot.
[0005] Preferably, receiving grooves are provided on both outer sides of the box body, and the elastic ears can be pressed into the receiving grooves.
[0006] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model provides a functional card holder. Because one end of the elastic lug protrudes beyond the outer side of the box body in its natural state, when the lid is closed on the box body, the inner side of the side panel contacts the elastic lug, causing the elastic lug to compress inwards. When the lid is fully closed on the box body, the elastic lug aligns with and engages with the locking slot. Since one end of the elastic lug protrudes beyond the outer side of the box body, if the lid is not pressed in, the side wall of the locking slot will be blocked by the side of the elastic lug, preventing the lid from opening. When it is necessary to open the lid, two fingers press the elastic lugs inwards and place them against the outer side of the box body. At this time, the elastic lugs disengage from the locking slot, allowing the lid to be opened. Its structure is simple, operation is convenient, and it can achieve closed positioning between the lid and the box body without the need for additional magnets or buckles, simplifying the manufacturing process, reducing product costs, and facilitating material recycling. It is worthy of widespread use. Attached Figure Description

[0010] The following are the diagram numbers: Box body 1, elastic ear 10, receiving slot 11, box lid 2, top panel 20, side panel 21, slot 210, front panel 22. Detailed Implementation
[0011] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this disclosure clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this disclosure.
[0012] Based on the embodiments described in this disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure.
[0013] refer to Figure 1-3 .
[0014] This utility model provides a functional card box, including a box body 1 and a box lid 2. The box lid 2 includes a top panel 20, side panels 21 connected to both sides of the top panel 20, and a front panel 22 connected between the side panels 21 and one side of the top panel 20. One side of the top panel 20 is connected to the box body 1. Both outer sides of the box body 1 are provided with elastic ears 10. One end of the elastic ears 10 is raised and extends beyond the outer side of the box body 1. The side panels 21 are provided with card slots 210 corresponding to the elastic ears 10. When the box lid 2 is closed on the box body 1, the elastic ears 10 are inserted into the card slots 210.
[0015] Its working principle is as follows: In its natural state, one end of the elastic lug 10 protrudes beyond the outer side of the box body 2. When the lid 2 is closed on the box body 1, the inner side of the side panel 21 contacts the elastic lug 10, causing it to compress inwards. When the lid 2 is fully closed on the box body 1, the elastic lug 10 aligns with and engages with the locking slot 210. Because one end of the elastic lug 10 protrudes beyond the outer side of the box body 1, when the lid 2 is opened without pressing the elastic lug 10 in, the side wall of the locking slot 210 will be blocked by the side of the elastic lug 10, preventing the lid 2 from opening. When it is necessary to open the lid 2, two fingers compress the elastic lugs 10 inwards and press them against the outer side of the box body 1. At this time, the elastic lug 10 disengages from the locking slot 210, allowing the lid 2 to be opened from the box body 1. (See attached image) Figure 3The image shown is the outline of the cardboard before it is folded into a card box. This is achieved by cutting the cardboard into the shape shown in the attached diagram. Figure 3 The shape shown can be used to manufacture the card box of this utility model. Its structure is simple and easy to operate, enabling closed positioning between the lid and body without the need for additional magnets or clips, simplifying the manufacturing process, reducing product costs, and facilitating material recycling. It is worthy of widespread use.
[0016] Based on the above embodiments, receiving grooves 11 are provided on both outer sides of the box body 1, and the elastic ears 10 can be pressed into the receiving grooves 11. When it is necessary to open the box lid 2, two fingers press the elastic ears 10 on both sides inward and into the receiving grooves 11 respectively. The elastic ears 10 will not protrude from the outer side of the box body 1. At this time, the elastic ears 10 disengage from the locking slot 210, and the box lid 2 can be opened from the box body 1, avoiding the elastic ears 10 protruding from the outer side of the box body 1 and causing obstruction to the opening of the box lid 2.
[0017] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model. Various modifications and improvements made to the technical solutions of the present utility model by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present utility model should fall within the protection scope defined by the claims of the present utility model.
