Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a packaging box, and more particularly to a side-opening packaging box. Background Technology
[0002] Packaging boxes are a type of packaging structure used to protect products and facilitate their transportation, loading, unloading, and storage. They are commonly seen in daily life, from large items like refrigerators and televisions to small items like pots and pans. Most existing packaging box structures use a top-opening design. However, this design has several drawbacks: when the internal product and the box's internal dimensions are closely matched, the gap between the product and the box walls is very small, making it difficult for users to apply force when removing the product from the top, often making the loading and unloading process difficult. Furthermore, products loaded through the top opening are more prone to falling or even being damaged. For taller boxes like refrigerators, removing the product can be inconvenient due to height limitations or ceiling height. In addition, the traditional unpacking process involves directly tearing or cutting open the top sealing tape, which is inconvenient and unrefined without tools, reducing the user's unpacking experience. Utility Model Content
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a side-opening packaging box to address the shortcomings of existing technologies.
[0004] A side-opening packaging box for packaging products includes a bottom panel, a front panel, a rear panel, two side panels, and a first top panel. The front and rear panels are integrally connected to the front and rear edges of the bottom panel, respectively, and are each bent vertically upwards along their connecting edges. The two side panels are integrally connected to the two sides of the rear panel, and both side panels are bent forward along their connecting edges and joined to the two sides of the bottom and front panels. The first top panel is integrally connected to the top edge of the front panel and bends backwards along its connecting edge.
[0005] The side panel includes an outer side panel and an inner side panel connected to the outer end of the outer side panel. The inner side panel is folded and closed to the inner side of the outer side panel, forming a slot between the inner side panel and the outer side panel. The front panel and the first top panel form a movable panel assembly. The movable panel assembly has a latch corresponding to the slot on its side, and the latch is embedded in the slot.
[0006] Furthermore, the inner side plate is disposed on the edge of the outer side plate away from the rear panel. The inner side plate is bent from the front and closed on the inner surface of the inner side plate and a slot is formed on the top. The two sides of the first top panel are provided with latches that match the slot.
[0007] Furthermore, a locking block is provided on the free end of the inner side plate, and a locking hole is provided on the rear panel corresponding to the position of the locking block, and the locking block is locked in the locking hole.
[0008] Furthermore, both sides of the front panel are also provided with latches, which are inserted between the side panel and the product.
[0009] Furthermore, both sides of the bottom panel are also provided with latches, and the latches on both sides of the bottom panel are embedded in the latch slots.
[0010] Furthermore, the side-opening packaging box also includes a second top panel, which is integrally connected to the upper edge of the rear panel and bent forward along the connecting edge, and the second top panel is stacked on the bottom of the first top panel.
[0011] Furthermore, the first top panel is provided with a first latch, and the second top panel is provided with a corresponding first lock hole. The first latch is located on the rear side of the first top panel and can be bent downwards and inserted into the first lock hole to limit the position of the first top panel and the second top panel.
[0012] Furthermore, a second latch is provided on the rear panel, and a corresponding second locking hole is provided on the first top panel. The second latch is located at the upper end of the rear panel and can be bent forward and inserted into the second locking hole to limit the movement of the rear panel and the first top panel.
[0013] Furthermore, the second top panel is also provided with a handle, and the first top panel is provided with a corresponding through hole. The handle can extend above the first top panel through the through hole.
[0014] Furthermore, the side-opening packaging box also includes a cushioning pad, which includes a front liner and a rear liner respectively disposed on the front and rear sides of the product, with the front liner corresponding to the front panel.
[0015] In summary, the beneficial effects of this side-opening packaging box are as follows: By designing the packaging box with a unique side-opening structure, it is easier and more convenient to load or unload products compared to traditional top-opening or bottom-opening packaging boxes. Furthermore, the multi-panel splicing design eliminates the need for tape fixation, allowing for reuse and better aligning with environmental protection principles. The tongue-shaped design strengthens the edge seam connections, and the double-layered side panel design not only facilitates the locking and limiting of the top panel but also significantly improves the overall structural strength of the packaging box.

[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of the utility model.
[0022] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this utility model provides a side-opening packaging box 100 for packaging products, which includes a bottom panel 10, a front panel 20, a rear panel 30, two side panels 40 and a first top panel 50.
[0023] The front panel 20 and rear panel 30 are integrally connected to the front and rear edges of the bottom panel 10, respectively, and are bent vertically upwards along the connecting edges. The two side panels 40 are integrally connected to the two sides of the rear panel 30, and both side panels 40 are bent forward along the connecting edges and joined to the two sides of the bottom panel 10 and the front panel 20. The first top panel 50 is integrally connected to the top edge of the front panel 20 and bends backwards along the connecting edge.
[0024] The side panel 40 includes an outer side panel 41 and an inner side panel 42 connected to the outer end of the outer side panel 41. The inner side panel 42 is folded and closed inside the outer side panel 41, forming a slot 43 between the inner side panel 42 and the outer side panel 41. The front panel 20 and the first top panel 50 form a movable panel assembly 60. The movable panel assembly 60 has a latch 61 on its side that corresponds to the slot 43, and the latch 61 is embedded in the slot 43.
[0025] When using the folding packaging box, simply unfold the top panel 50 and pull the front panel 20 forward to open the box from the front, making it easy to load and unload the product. Compared to ordinary top-opening or bottom-opening packaging boxes, the side-opening packaging box is not only easier and more convenient to load and unload the product, but also effectively avoids the problem of products being unable to be smoothly removed from the packaging box due to height restrictions. In addition, the splicing design of multiple panels eliminates the need for tape to fix the packaging box, allowing for reuse and better aligning with environmental protection principles.
[0026] Specifically, in this embodiment, the inner side plate 42 is disposed on the edge of the outer side plate 41 away from the rear panel 30. The inner side plate 42 is bent from the front and closed on the inner surface of the inner side plate 42, forming a slot 43 at the top. The first top panel 50 has latches 61 on both sides that match the slot 43. It can be understood that in another embodiment, the inner side plate 42 can also be disposed above the outer side plate 41, folded from the top and closed on the inner surface of the outer side plate 41, forming a slot 43 structure on the front side, and the latches 61 of the front panel 20 can be correspondingly inserted into the slot 43.
[0027] A locking block 421 is provided on the free end of the inner side panel 42, and a locking hole 31 is provided on the rear panel 30 corresponding to the position of the locking block 421, with the locking block 421 locked in the locking hole 31. Locking tongues 61 are also provided on both sides of the front panel 20, and the locking tongues 61 on both sides of the front panel 20 are inserted between the side panel 40 and the product. Locking tongues 61 are also provided on both sides of the bottom panel 10, and the locking tongues 61 on both sides of the bottom panel 10 are embedded in the locking groove 43.
[0028] The locking block 421 of the inner side panel 42 can engage with the locking hole 31 on the rear panel 30, thereby limiting and fixing the inner side panel 42 to prevent it from popping out and loosening, thus affecting the overall structure of the packaging box. Furthermore, the tongue structure designed at the folding and splicing positions of each panel of the packaging box not only further strengthens the structural strength of the packaging box and reduces the risk of deformation under pressure, but also improves the sealing of the packaging box, effectively preventing gaps at the panel splicing positions, making the packaging protection effect of the packaging box more reliable.
[0029] The side-opening packaging box 100 also includes a second top panel 70, which is integrally connected to the upper edge of the rear panel 30 and bent forward along the connecting edge. The second top panel 70 is stacked on the bottom of the first top panel 50. The second top panel 70 is also provided with a handle 71, and the first top panel 50 is correspondingly provided with a through hole 51. The handle 71 can pass through the through hole 51 and extend above the first top panel 50. The handle 71 design facilitates lifting, moving, and transporting the packaging box.
[0030] The first top panel 50 is provided with a first latch 52, and the second top panel 70 is provided with a corresponding first lock hole 72. The first latch 52 is located on the rear side of the first top panel 50 and can be bent downwards and inserted into the first lock hole 72 to limit the position of the first top panel 50 and the second top panel 70. The rear panel 30 is also provided with a second latch 32, and the first top panel 50 is provided with a corresponding second lock hole 53. The second latch 32 is located at the upper end of the rear panel 30 and can be bent forwards and inserted into the second lock hole 53 to limit the position of the rear panel 30 and the first top panel 50.
[0031] When closing the packaging box, the first latch 52 can be inserted into the first locking hole 72 to lock the first top panel 50 and the second top panel 70 together. Then, the second latch 32 can be inserted into the second locking hole 53 to lock the first top panel 50 and the rear panel 30 together. The double latch structure makes the closed packaging box more secure and reliable, and can effectively prevent the top panel and front panel 20 of the packaging box from accidentally loosening and falling apart.
[0032] The side-opening packaging box 100 also includes a cushioning pad 80, which comprises a front liner 81 and a rear liner 82 respectively disposed on the front and rear sides of the product. The front liner 81 corresponds to the front panel 20. The cushioning pad 80 further enhances the packaging box's pressure resistance and cushioning capacity, improving the packaging protection effect of the packaging box on the product. Furthermore, its front-to-back shell structure design complements the side-opening design of the packaging box, allowing the product to be displayed or removed simply by removing the front liner 81 when opening the box, without having to completely remove the entire inner liner.
[0033] In summary, the beneficial effects of this side-opening packaging box 100 are as follows: By designing the packaging box with a unique side-opening structure, it is easier and more convenient to load or unload products compared to traditional top-opening or bottom-opening packaging boxes. Furthermore, the multi-panel splicing design eliminates the need for tape fixation, allowing for reuse and better aligning with environmental protection principles. The tongue plate strengthens the edge seam connection, and the double-layer structure of the side panel 40 not only facilitates the locking and limiting of the first top panel but also significantly improves the overall structural strength of the packaging box. The multi-locking structure at the opening and closing position further enhances the sealing reliability of the packaging box. The handle 71 facilitates handling and moving the packaging box, while the cushioning pad 80 not only effectively protects the products inside but also allows for direct inspection of the product without removing it. In addition, the side-opening design of this invention provides users with a novel and excellent disassembly experience without the need for tools. This invention is highly practical and has significant promotional value.
[0034] The embodiments described above illustrate only one implementation of the utility model, and while the description is relatively specific and detailed, it should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the inventive concept, and these all fall within the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
