Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioner packaging technology, and more specifically, to an air conditioner packaging foam padding structure. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, most wall-mounted air conditioners use customized EPS (polystyrene foam) and EPE (polyethylene foam) side foam padding, with corrugated cardboard boxes for outer packaging protection. The packaging process mainly includes manual bagging → manual fitting of side foam → manual sealing and packing → mechanical sealing → mechanical packing. Existing packaging methods have the following disadvantages: 1. Packaging boxes are prone to moisture damage and deformation in humid environments, reducing their protective performance; the packaging boxes have insufficient load-bearing capacity: they are prone to collapse during stacking or handling, leading to deformation of the air conditioner casing; 2. There are many packaging components (body bag, side foam, cardboard box, sealing tape, packing straps, etc.), requiring multiple assembly processes, resulting in low mechanization and high labor costs; 3. The internal protective structure does not completely enclose the air conditioner components, making them susceptible to collision damage during transportation. Utility Model Content

[0003] Therefore, this utility model provides an air conditioner packaging foam padding structure that improves packaging protection performance while simplifying the packaging structure.

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides an air conditioner packaging foam padding structure, comprising: a first packaging component having a first accommodating space; a second packaging component corresponding to the first packaging component and having a second accommodating space, the second accommodating space and the first accommodating space being combined to accommodate an air conditioner; and a plurality of clearance portions arranged on the first packaging component and the second packaging component, the plurality of clearance portions being used to clear some components of the air conditioner; wherein, the first packaging component and the second packaging component are combined and then covered with a heat-shrinkable film.

[0005] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effects achieved by this solution are as follows: By combining the first and second packaging components to house the air conditioner, the packaging method makes air conditioner packing more convenient and faster, while the simpler structure reduces costs. Furthermore, the distributed placement of multiple clearance parts ensures that some air conditioner components are not obstructed, thus enhancing safety during transportation, strengthening product protection, and reducing the risk of damage. Finally, the use of heat-shrink film for outer wrapping provides stronger protection in humid environments, replacing traditional cardboard boxes. This also allows for mechanized production, replacing manual labor, reducing labor costs and increasing production efficiency.

[0006] In one embodiment of this utility model, when the air conditioner is wrapped by the first packaging component and the second packaging component, the air conditioner includes a panel, and the air conditioner packaging foam padding structure includes: an clearance gap is provided between the panel and the first packaging component, and the height of the clearance gap is greater than 8.5mm and less than or equal to 11mm.

[0007] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effects achieved by this solution are as follows: Since the air conditioner panel is easily deformed under pressure in high-temperature environments, clearance gaps are set to avoid the air conditioner panel, thereby making the panel safer during transportation. Furthermore, by limiting the height of the clearance gaps, the clearance gaps are prevented from being too large, which would result in the thickness of the first packaging component being too small, leading to load-bearing failure. At the same time, excessively large gaps would also cause the air conditioner to move up and down significantly inside, thus rendering the packaging ineffective.

[0008] In one embodiment of this utility model, after the air conditioner is wrapped by the first packaging component and the second packaging component, there is an assembly gap between the air conditioner and the first packaging component and the second packaging component, and the width of the assembly gap is less than or equal to 3mm.

[0009] Compared with the existing technology, the technical effect achieved by adopting this technical solution is as follows: by setting the assembly gap, the air conditioner is prevented from shaking inside after being wrapped by the first packaging component and the second packaging component, and the air conditioner is placed into the first packaging component and the second packaging component more smoothly, thus improving the assembly efficiency.

[0010] In one embodiment of this utility model, the air conditioner also includes an air guide door, and the plurality of clearance parts further include: a first clearance part, the first clearance part is disposed on the first packaging assembly, the first clearance part is used to clear the air guide door; the height of the first clearance part is greater than the width of the assembly gap and less than the height of the clearance gap.

[0011] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effects achieved by this solution are as follows: Since the air deflector of an air conditioner is a weak structure, it needs to be protected during transportation. By setting a first clearance part to avoid the air deflector, large displacement of the air conditioner during transportation is avoided, thus ensuring the overall safety of the air deflector. At the same time, the height of the first clearance part is greater than the assembly gap, so that the air deflector will not be subjected to excessive force during transportation, making the air deflector safer during transportation.

[0012] In one embodiment of this utility model, the air conditioner also includes a filter grille, and the plurality of clearance portions further include: a second clearance portion, which is disposed on the second packaging assembly and is used to clearance the filter grille; the height of the second clearance portion is less than or equal to 5mm.

[0013] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effects achieved by this solution are as follows: Since the air conditioner's filter grille is relatively fragile and easily broken, a second clearance part is set to protect it. By setting the height of the second clearance part to be less than or equal to 5mm, the air conditioner's filter grille is safer during transportation and will not break due to shaking during transportation, thus improving the safety and protection level of transportation.

[0014] In one embodiment of this utility model, the air conditioner packaging foam padding structure further includes: multiple viewing windows, which are hollowed out in the first packaging component.

[0015] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effects achieved by adopting this technical solution are as follows: by setting multiple viewing windows on the first packaging component, customers can better and more intuitively experience the product after receiving it through the viewing windows, and can also better observe the product, ensuring the integrity of the product, improving the appearance and practicality of the packaging, and making customers more at ease after receiving the product.

[0016] In one embodiment of this utility model, the air conditioner packaging foam padding structure further includes: a first marking on a first packaging component and a second marking on a second packaging component; wherein the first marking and the second marking are used to indicate and distinguish the first packaging component and the second packaging component as well as the placement direction of the air conditioner.

[0017] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effects achieved by this solution are as follows: By setting first and second labels with annotations on the first and second packaging components respectively, the first and second packaging components can be better distinguished during assembly, thus improving assembly efficiency. Simultaneously, it facilitates identification of the air conditioner's placement direction during assembly, preventing incorrect installation that could affect the overall protective performance of the air conditioner, thereby improving the overall practicality of the packaging.

[0018] In one embodiment of this utility model, the air conditioner packaging foam padding structure further includes: at least one placement groove, wherein the at least one placement groove is disposed in the first packaging component.

[0019] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effects achieved by adopting this technical solution are as follows: by setting at least one placement slot on the first packaging component, the placement slot can be used to place additional product parts of the air conditioner such as remote control, thereby making the space utilization rate of the entire air conditioner packaging foam padding structure higher and avoiding the loss of small parts.

[0020] In one embodiment of this utility model, the air conditioner packaging foam padding structure further includes: a first packaging component having a first slot, and a second packaging component having a second slot corresponding to the first slot; the first slot and the second slot form a placement space after the first packaging component and the second packaging component are combined.

[0021] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effects achieved by adopting this technical solution are as follows: by setting a first slot and a second slot, and after the first packaging component and the second packaging component are combined, the first slot and the second slot are combined to form a placement space. Other accessories of the air conditioner are placed in the placement space, so that these accessories will not be lost, will not affect the transportation of the air conditioner, and will also be easier for users to find, thus improving the subsequent installation efficiency of the air conditioner.

[0022] In one embodiment of this utility model, the air conditioner packaging foam padding structure further includes: a first packaging component having a first locking structure; a second packaging component having a second locking structure corresponding to the first locking structure; wherein, after the first packaging component and the second packaging component are combined, the second locking structure and the first locking structure abut against each other.

[0023] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effects achieved by adopting this technical solution are as follows: by setting the first and second locking structures accordingly, the first and second packaging components will not shift significantly after wrapping the air conditioner, thereby ensuring the packaging stability of the air conditioner by the first and second packaging components, thus avoiding problems during subsequent transportation and improving the overall protection.

[0024] By adopting the technical solution of this utility model, the following technical effects can be achieved:

[0025] (1) By combining the first and second packaging components to accommodate the air conditioner, the packaging method makes air conditioner packing more convenient and faster, and the simpler structure reduces costs. Multiple clearance parts are also distributed to avoid obstructing some parts of the air conditioner, thus making the air conditioner safer during transportation, enhancing product protection, and reducing the risk of damage. Finally, the outer packaging is protected with heat-shrink film. Using heat-shrink film instead of traditional cardboard boxes provides stronger protection in humid environments, and allows for mechanized production instead of manual labor, reducing labor costs while increasing production efficiency.

[0026] (2) Since the air conditioner panel is easily deformed under pressure in high temperature environment, a clearance is set to avoid the air conditioner panel, so that the panel is safer during transportation. By limiting the height of the clearance, the clearance will not be too large, resulting in the thickness of the first packaging component being too small, which will lead to load-bearing failure. At the same time, an excessively large clearance will also cause the air conditioner to move up and down inside, which will lead to the failure of the packaging's protective effect.

[0027] (3) Since the air guide door of the air conditioner is a weak structure, it is necessary to pay attention to protection during transportation. By setting a first avoidance part to avoid the air guide door, the air conditioner will not be displaced during transportation, thus not affecting the air guide door and ensuring the overall safety of the air guide door. At the same time, the height of the first avoidance part should be greater than the assembly gap so that the air guide door will not be subjected to excessive force during transportation, thus making the air guide door safer during transportation.

[0036] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model are clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0037] [First Embodiment]

[0038] See Figures 1-5 This utility model provides an air conditioner packaging foam padding structure 100, including: a first packaging component 110, the first packaging component 110 having a first accommodating space; a second packaging component 120, the second packaging component 120 being disposed corresponding to the first packaging component 110, and the second packaging component 120 having a second accommodating space, the second accommodating space and the first accommodating space being combined to accommodate an air conditioner; and a plurality of clearance parts, the plurality of clearance parts being disposed on the first packaging component 110 and the second packaging component 120, the plurality of clearance parts being used to clear some components of the air conditioner; wherein, the first packaging component 110 and the second packaging component 120 are covered with a heat shrink film after being combined.

[0039] Specifically, when packaging the air conditioner, first place the second packaging component 120. The first packaging component 110 and the second packaging component 120 are wrapped together from top to bottom. The specific materials can be EPS (polystyrene foam) and EPE (polyethylene foam). After placing the second packaging component 120, place the air conditioner according to the second marking 122 set on the second packaging component 120. The second marking 122 indicates that the second packaging component 120 should be placed at the bottom and also indicates the front and back direction of the air conditioner to avoid incorrect placement.

[0040] Furthermore, after placing the air conditioner according to the second marking, the first packaging component 110 is placed according to the first mark 113. The first mark 113 also indicates that the first packaging component 110 is at the top and the front-back direction of the air conditioner. For example, T / B marks are used to distinguish the upper and lower foam, with T for upper foam and B for lower foam, and the front-back direction is indicated by the FRONT arrow. Specifically, the first locking structure 116 and the second locking structure 124 are aligned and installed. Due to the two markings, the first clearance part 111, the second clearance part 121, and the clearance gap accurately correspond to the air conditioner parts to be cleared, making the overall covering of the air conditioner more convenient and accurate. A 2mm gap is provided between the first locking structure 116 and the second locking structure 124. After placing the air conditioner, the remote control can be placed in the placement slot 114. Since the first slot 115 and the second slot 123 also merge into a placement space, other accessories for the air conditioner can be placed in this space.

[0041] Furthermore, after placement, a mechanical gripper is used to attach the foam to the product (a manual flipping of the product may be required during the process), and it is conveyed to the conveyor belt. The air conditioner packaging foam padding structure 100 is fixed with baffles or clamps. The equipment is started, and the heat shrink film automatically unfolds and covers the item to form a wrapping film sleeve. The opening of the film sleeve is sealed by a heat sealing device to form a seal. After sealing, the item along with the film sleeve enters the shrink oven (or heating tunnel), where hot air, infrared rays, or hot wind are used to shrink the film sleeve to fit tightly against the product surface. The finished product after shrinking is output via conveyor belt.

[0042] Preferably, the air conditioner is housed by combining the first packaging component 110 and the second packaging component 120. This packaging method makes packing the air conditioner more convenient and faster, and the simpler structure reduces costs. Multiple clearance parts are distributed to avoid obstructing certain components of the air conditioner, thus enhancing safety during transportation, strengthening product protection, and reducing the risk of damage. Finally, protection is achieved by using an outer heat-shrink film. Replacing traditional cardboard boxes with heat-shrink film provides stronger protection in humid environments, and allows for mechanized production instead of manual labor, reducing labor costs and increasing production efficiency.

[0043] Specifically, when the air conditioner is wrapped by the first packaging component 110 and the second packaging component 120, the air conditioner includes a panel, and the air conditioner packaging foam padding structure 100 includes: a clearance gap is provided between the panel and the first packaging component 110, and the height of the clearance gap is greater than 8.5mm and less than or equal to 11mm.

[0044] Specifically, the deformation rate of foam in high-temperature environments is 3%. For example, if the total foam height of the packaging is 282mm, then the panel clearance should be D > 282mm. 3% = 8.5mm, so the clearance can be set to 11mm.

[0045] Preferably, since the air conditioner panel is easily deformed under pressure in a high-temperature environment, a clearance gap is set to avoid the air conditioner panel, thereby making the panel safer during transportation. By limiting the height of the clearance gap, the clearance gap is prevented from being too large, which would result in the thickness of the first packaging component 110 being too small, leading to load-bearing failure. At the same time, an excessively large gap would also cause the air conditioner to move up and down significantly inside, thereby rendering the protective effect of the packaging ineffective.

[0046] Specifically, after the air conditioner is wrapped by the first packaging component 110 and the second packaging component 120, there is an assembly gap between the air conditioner and the first packaging component 110 and the second packaging component 120, and the width of the assembly gap is less than or equal to 3mm.

[0047] For example, foam products generally have positive tolerances. In order to make it easy to assemble and fix the product during the foam production process and prevent the product from shaking in the packaging foam, an assembly gap of 3mm (1.5mm on one side) is reserved between the foam and the product.

[0048] Preferably, by setting an assembly gap, the air conditioner is prevented from shaking inside after being wrapped by the first packaging component 110 and the second packaging component 120, and the air conditioner is placed into the first packaging component 110 and the second packaging component 120 more smoothly, thereby improving assembly efficiency.

[0049] Specifically, the air conditioner also includes an air deflector, and the multiple clearance parts also include: a first clearance part 111, which is disposed on the first packaging assembly 110 and is used to clear the air deflector; the height of the first clearance part 111 is greater than the width of the assembly gap and less than the height of the clearance gap.

[0050] Preferably, since the air deflector of the air conditioner is a weak structure, it needs to be protected during transportation. By setting a first clearance part 111 to avoid the air deflector, the air conditioner will not be displaced during transportation, thus not affecting the air deflector and ensuring the overall safety of the air deflector. At the same time, the height of the first clearance part 111 is greater than the assembly gap, so that the air deflector will not be subjected to excessive force during transportation, thus making the air deflector safer during transportation.

[0051] Specifically, the air conditioner also includes a filter grille, and the multiple clearance parts also include: a second clearance part 121, which is disposed on the second packaging assembly 120 and is used to clearance the filter grille; the height of the second clearance part 121 is less than or equal to 5mm.

[0052] Preferably, since the air conditioner's filter grille is relatively fragile and easily broken, a second clearance part 121 is provided to protect it. By setting the height of the second clearance part 121 to be less than or equal to 5mm, the air conditioner's filter grille is safer during transportation and will not break due to shaking during transportation, thereby improving the safety and protection level of transportation.

[0053] Specifically, the air conditioner packaging foam padding structure 100 also includes: multiple windows 112, which are hollowed out in the first packaging component 110.

[0054] Preferably, by setting multiple windows 112 on the first packaging component 110, customers can better and more intuitively experience the product after receiving it through the windows 112, and can also better observe the product through the windows 112, ensuring the integrity of the product, improving the appearance and practicality of the packaging, and making customers more at ease after receiving the product.

[0055] Specifically, the air conditioner packaging foam padding structure 100 also includes: a first marking 113 on the first packaging component 110 and a second marking 122 on the second packaging component 120; wherein the first marking 113 and the second marking 122 are used to annotate and distinguish the first packaging component 110 and the second packaging component 120 as well as the air conditioner placement direction.

[0056] Preferably, by providing a first identifier 113 and a second identifier 122 with annotations on the first packaging component 110 and the second packaging component 120 respectively, the first packaging component 110 and the second packaging component 120 can be better distinguished during assembly, thereby improving assembly efficiency. Simultaneously, it also facilitates identification of the air conditioner's placement direction during assembly, preventing incorrect installation that could affect the overall protective performance of the air conditioner, thus improving the overall practicality of the packaging.

[0057] Specifically, the air conditioner packaging foam padding structure 100 also includes at least one placement slot 114, which is disposed in the first packaging component 110.

[0058] Preferably, by providing at least one placement slot 114 on the first packaging component 110, the placement slot 114 can be used to place additional product parts of the air conditioner such as remote control, thereby making the space utilization of the entire air conditioner packaging foam padding structure 100 higher and also avoiding the loss of small parts.

[0059] Specifically, the air conditioner packaging foam padding structure 100 also includes: a first packaging component 110 having a first slot 115, and a second packaging component 120 having a second slot 123 corresponding to the first slot 115; the first slot 115 and the second slot 123 form a placement space after the first packaging component 110 and the second packaging component 120 are combined.

[0060] Preferably, by setting a first slot 115 and a second slot 123, and after the first packaging component 110 and the second packaging component 120 are combined, the first slot 115 and the second slot 123 are combined to form a placement space. Other accessories of the air conditioner are placed in the placement space, so that these accessories will not be lost and will not affect the transportation of the air conditioner. At the same time, it is also convenient for users to find them, which improves the subsequent installation efficiency of the air conditioner.

[0061] Specifically, the air conditioner packaging foam padding structure 100 further includes: a first packaging component 110 having a first locking structure 116; and a second packaging component 120 having a second locking structure 124 corresponding to the first locking structure 116; wherein, after the first packaging component 110 and the second packaging component 120 are combined, the second locking structure 124 and the first locking structure 116 abut against each other.

[0062] Preferably, by correspondingly setting the first locking structure 116 and the second locking structure 124, the first packaging component 110 and the second packaging component 120 will not shift significantly after wrapping the air conditioner, thereby ensuring the packaging stability of the air conditioner by the first packaging component 110 and the second packaging component 120, thus avoiding problems with the air conditioner during subsequent transportation and improving the overall protection.

[0063] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features.
