Detailed Implementation
[0017] according to Figures 1-5 The specific structure of this utility model is described in detail. This universal grille trim EPE packaging includes a packaging panel 1, which forms an inner cavity around the package body 3 for holding the trim parts. A panel bottom 2 is provided below the packaging panel 1, and the bottom of the panel bottom 2 has forklift slots 6 for easy handling of the entire package by forklifts or other transport vehicles. Furthermore, parts loading / unloading openings 4 are provided on the front and rear sides of the packaging panel 1, and parts loading / unloading flaps 5 are also provided at each of the openings 4, further facilitating the loading and unloading of grille trim parts within the packaging panel 1.
[0018] The inner cavity of the packaging panel 1 contains several sets of stacked decorative strip component packaging bodies 3, which can also be arranged in multiple sets and stacked side by side. Each decorative strip component packaging body 3 includes an upper packaging body 7, a middle packaging body 8 bonded (e.g., by adhesive) to the lower side of the upper packaging body 7, and a lower packaging body 9 bonded to the lower side of the middle packaging body 8. Furthermore, a component placement slot 10 for accommodating grille decorative strip components is provided between the upper packaging body 7, the middle packaging body 8, and the lower packaging body 9, with the opening of the component placement slot 10 located on the upper side of the upper packaging body 7. The upper packaging body 7, the middle packaging body 8, and the lower packaging body 9 can all be made of EPE (polyethylene foam) material.
[0019] The upper packaging body 7 of the trim part packaging body 3 is composed of an upper frame 11. The upper frame 11 has several parallelly arranged part main body holes 12, the shape of which matches the shape of the outer contour of the part. At both ends of the part main body holes 12, there are head corner protection holes 13 and tail corner protection holes 14, respectively. Furthermore, by utilizing the part main body holes 12 on the upper packaging body 7, which are arranged according to the shape of the grille trim part, the part can be placed inside the trim part packaging body 3 and is slightly lower than the upper surface of the upper packaging body 7, thus preventing scratches on the trim part.
[0020] Meanwhile, the middle packaging body 8 is composed of a middle frame 15, on which several sets of parallel-arranged part-locking holes 18 are provided. The number and position of each set of part-locking holes 18 correspond to the number and position of the part-locking buckles on the placed trim parts. Furthermore, at both ends of each set of part-locking holes 18, corresponding to the holes 13 on the first end protective corner and 14 on the last end protective corner, respectively, there are first end conductive sheet holes 16 and last end conductive sheet holes 17. In addition, between the first end conductive sheet holes 16 and the last end conductive sheet holes 17, there is also a body conformal hole 19 for matching the lower shape of the part body. Then, through the various part-locking holes 18 and conductive sheet holes provided on the middle packaging body 8, the part-locking buckles and conductive sheets at the corresponding positions on the grille trim parts are respectively placed into the slots, so that the trim parts can be placed stably.
[0021] Furthermore, the lower packaging body 9 is composed of a lower frame 20. On the lower frame 20, corresponding to the upper holes 13 and 14 of the first and last protective corners, respectively, are provided lower holes 21 and 22 of the first and last protective corners. This allows the first and last protective corners of the grille trim parts to be placed from top to bottom into the lower holes 21 and 22 of the lower packaging body 9 via the upper holes 13 and 14 of the first and last protective corners on the upper packaging body 7, further ensuring the stable placement of the trim parts.
[0022] When using this universal grille trim EPE packaging, firstly, one layer of trim component packaging 3 is placed inside the packaging enclosure 1. Depending on the space within the enclosure, multiple trim component packaging 3 can be placed side-by-side in one layer. Then, through the component loading / unloading ports 4 on the front and rear sides of the packaging enclosure 1 (with the component loading / unloading flaps 5 in the open state), the grille trim components are sequentially placed into the component placement slots 10 of each trim component packaging 3. Thus, the component body holes 12 on the upper packaging 7 allow the components to be inserted into the trim component packaging 3, slightly below the upper surface of the upper packaging 7, preventing scratches on the trim components. Furthermore, the component clips and conductive sheets on the grille trim component are inserted into the corresponding slots through the component clip holes 18 and conductive sheet holes on the middle packaging body 8. At the same time, the first and last protection corners of the grille trim component are placed from top to bottom into the first and last protection corner holes 21 and 22 on the lower packaging body 9 through the first protection corner upper hole 13 and the last protection corner upper hole 14 on the upper packaging body 7, so as to ensure that the trim component can be placed stably.
[0023] After placing one layer of trim parts, another empty trim part package 3 is placed on top, and the above operation of placing the grille trim parts into the respective part placement slots 10 of the trim part package 3 via the part loading and unloading port 4 is repeated. When the inner cavity of the packaging panel 1 is full of trim part package 3 and grille trim parts, the entire package is moved using the forks of a forklift or other transport vehicle (the forks are inserted into the fork slots 6 at the bottom of the panel box 2).
