Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of packaging technology, specifically to box structure and packaging structure. Background Technology

[0002] Multi-level packaging is widely used in modern logistics, warehousing, and commodity distribution. A common scenario is to pack pre-sealed internal items into outer packaging boxes for transportation and storage, effectively protecting the product and resisting logistical shocks.

[0003] However, because outer packaging boxes are typically deep and the contents fit snugly against the inner walls, it's difficult for operators to reach under the box and apply effective gripping force when removing the contents. To address this, one approach is to fill the space between the contents and the outer box with cushioning material, creating operational space by removing the filler. However, this increases material costs and packing time. Another option is to install a handle on the top of the sealed box for easy removal, but this requires additional handle components and slots, increasing cost, design complexity, and assembly time. Yet another approach is to tightly insert the contents into the outer box. However, if the gap is too small to prevent movement during transport, it becomes difficult to reach in by hand; conversely, widening the gap increases the risk of breakage due to box movement during transport. Therefore, current packaging solutions struggle to effectively balance convenience, cost, structural strength, and assembly efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a box structure and packaging structure to solve the problem that current packaging solutions are difficult to effectively balance between convenience, packaging cost, structural strength and assembly efficiency.

[0005] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a box structure, including a box body, wherein the box body is provided with a connector extending along the height direction; the connector includes a lower fixed area and an upper easy-open area; in the easy-open area, the side wall of the box body opens outward when subjected to an external force.

[0006] Beneficial Effects: In the easy-open area, the side wall of the box body opens outward under external force, forming a wide, unobstructed operating channel, allowing for quick and convenient removal of internal items without the need for tools or damage to the box structure. This solves the problem of difficulty in removing items from traditional boxes, improving the convenience of unpacking and retrieving internal items. The lower fixed area maintains rigidity at all times, ensuring overall rigidity and strength during stacking and transportation, preventing overall structural collapse due to the easy-open area. This application upgrades the packaging user experience without increasing material costs or adjusting existing packaging production processes, while ensuring practicality and safety, and balancing economy and operational convenience; it solves the problem of current packaging solutions struggling to effectively balance convenience, packaging cost, structural strength, and assembly efficiency.

[0007] In one alternative implementation, the height of the easy-open area is less than half the height of the main body of the box.

[0008] Beneficial effects: Setting the height of the easy-open area to less than half the height of the main body of the box ensures both ease of unpacking and overall structural stability. Furthermore, areas exceeding half the height of the main body remain relatively intact and fixed, effectively resisting external impacts during storage and transportation. This satisfies the user's need to open and retrieve items by force while preventing excessive deformation of the main body during operation due to an excessively high opening, providing more reliable protection for the contents and balancing the trade-off between ease of opening and structural stability.

[0009] In one alternative implementation, the height of the easy-open area is greater than or equal to 60 mm.

[0010] Beneficial effects: Setting the height of the easy-open area to greater than or equal to 60mm can meet the hand insertion requirements in actual operation, provide users with sufficient operating space, and avoid the problem of insufficient opening height causing difficulty in inserting hands and inconvenience in applying force, thus affecting the efficiency of unpacking.

[0011] In one alternative embodiment, the connector is located on the boundary edge of two adjacent sidewalls of the housing body.

[0012] Beneficial effects: Since the junction edge is a key load-bearing and connection part of the box body, setting the docking interface here can reduce the damage to the integrity of individual side walls, avoid the problem of side wall strength reduction due to opening, and ensure the overall load-bearing and protection capacity of the box body; and when force is applied to the easy-open area of ​​the docking interface, it can simultaneously drive the two adjacent side walls to open outward, which can form a more spacious retrieval space compared to a single side wall opening.

[0013] In one optional embodiment, the docking interface is provided in two sets, and the two sets of docking interfaces are respectively located on two opposing boundary edges of the housing body.

[0014] Beneficial effects: When the two sets of opposing connectors are opened together, the four side walls of the cabinet body will expand outwards simultaneously, forming a wider access channel. This avoids the problem of obstruction caused by the limited opening range, making the process of taking out items smoother and less strenuous, without having to repeatedly adjust the angle of the items or squeeze the cabinet body.

[0015] In one optional embodiment, a pre-deformation structure is provided on the side wall of the housing body, and the pre-deformation structure is located at the junction of the fixed area and the easy-open area.

[0016] Beneficial effects: By setting a pre-deformation structure, the box body can be guided to more easily generate outward deformation at the pre-deformation structure, reducing the force threshold and making it easier for even users with less strength to open, thus improving the ease and efficiency of unpacking. Furthermore, the pre-deformation structure is only added at the junction of the original fixed area and easy-open area through process optimization, without changing the basic structure of the box body, avoiding additional costs.

[0017] In one optional embodiment, the pre-deformation structure is a pre-folded line; the pre-folded line is perpendicular to the extension direction of the connector.

[0018] Beneficial effects: The pre-fold line ensures that the side wall of the easy-open area can bend outward along this line when under stress, effectively preventing random and irregular bending of the side wall of the body, making the opening action more standardized and the opening shape more neat; it avoids stress spreading to unexpected areas, thus ensuring that the supporting strength of the main body structure of the body is not affected, and while achieving convenient opening, it preserves the structural integrity of the lower fixed area to the greatest extent.

[0019] Secondly, this utility model also provides a packaging structure, including: Outer packaging box; An inner packaging box, which is housed inside the outer packaging box; The outer packaging box and / or the inner packaging box have the box structure described above.

[0020] Beneficial effects: Since the outer packaging box and / or inner packaging box are of the above-mentioned box structure, they have all the technical effects of the above-mentioned box structure.

[0021] In one optional embodiment, a first gap exists between the side wall of the inner packaging box and the side wall of the outer packaging box, the first gap being less than 5 mm.

[0022] Beneficial effects: By limiting the first gap to less than 5mm, a certain buffer space can be reserved. When the outer packaging box is slightly bumped or squeezed, the slight compression of the air in the first gap or the small deformation of the side wall can absorb part of the external force, reducing the impact directly transmitted to the inner packaging box and the contents, thus playing a basic protective role. In addition, the first gap of less than 5mm can effectively limit the shaking amplitude of the inner packaging box in the outer packaging box, avoiding violent displacement and collision of the inner packaging box due to excessive gap during transportation or handling, ensuring the stability of the contents inside the box. At the same time, while meeting the protection and stability requirements, it can also avoid the overall volume redundancy of the packaging due to excessive gap, saving costs and improving the utilization rate of storage space and transportation loading efficiency.

[0023] In one optional embodiment, when the easy-open area of ​​the outer packaging box opens outward, a second gap is formed between the side wall of the inner packaging box and the side wall of the outer packaging box at the position corresponding to the easy-open area, and the second gap is greater than or equal to 10mm.

[0024] Beneficial effects: Since the thickness of an adult's finger is about 10mm, if the gap between the inner and outer packaging boxes is smaller than the thickness of a finger, it is difficult to insert a finger between the inner and outer packaging boxes when unpacking, making it difficult to remove the inner packaging box. By limiting the second gap to greater than or equal to 10mm, when the easy-open area of ​​the outer packaging box opens outward, a second gap of greater than or equal to 10mm is formed between the inner and outer packaging box side walls at the corresponding position, which can create sufficient operating space, making it convenient for users to insert their fingers into the second gap to touch and remove the inner packaging box, avoiding the problem of difficulty in inserting the hand and difficulty in removing the box due to the second gap being too small.

They are used only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0030] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connected" and "linked" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0031] Furthermore, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of this utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0032] The following is combined with Figures 1 to 9 The following describes embodiments of the present invention.

[0033] According to an embodiment of the present invention, in one aspect, a box structure 100 is provided, including a box body 110, and a connector 120 extending along the height direction is provided on the box body 110; the connector 120 includes a lower fixed area 121 and an upper easy-open area 122; in the easy-open area 122, the side wall of the box body 110 opens outward when subjected to an external force.

[0034] In the above embodiment, in the easy-open area 122, the side wall of the box body 110 opens outward when subjected to external force, forming a wide, unobstructed operating channel, allowing the internal items to be quickly and conveniently removed without the need for tools or damage to the box structure 100. This solves the problem of difficulty in removing items from the traditional box body 110, improving the convenience of unpacking and retrieving internal items. The lower fixed area 121 remains rigid, ensuring its overall rigidity and strength during stacking and transportation, preventing the overall structure from collapsing due to the easy-open area 122. This application upgrades the packaging user experience without increasing material costs or adjusting existing packaging production processes, while ensuring practicality and safety, and balances economy and operational convenience; it solves the problem that current packaging solutions struggle to effectively balance convenience, packaging cost, structural strength, and assembly efficiency.

[0035] In a specific implementation, the fixing area 121 at the lower part of the connector 120 is firmly connected by nailing or gluing to ensure the stability of the overall structure of the box body 110.

[0036] In a specific implementation, the easy-open area 122 at the top of the connector 120 is designed to be unconnected or weakly connected. The weak connection is achieved through one or more of the following connection methods: partial nailing, partial adhesive application, point-break connection, or easy-tear tape.

[0037] In one embodiment, the height of the easy-open area 122 is less than half the height of the box body 110.

[0038] In the above embodiment, the height of the easy-open area 122 is set to be less than half the height of the main body 110. This ensures both ease of unpacking and overall structural stability of the main body 110. Furthermore, the area of ​​the main body 110 exceeding half its height remains relatively intact and fixed, effectively resisting external impacts during storage and transportation. This satisfies the user's need to open and retrieve items using external force while preventing excessive deformation of the main body 110 during operation due to an excessively high opening. This provides more reliable protection for the contents, balancing the conflict between ease of opening and structural stability.

[0039] In one embodiment, the height of the easy-open area 122 is greater than or equal to 60 mm.

[0040] In the above embodiment, the height of the easy-open area 122 is set to be greater than or equal to 60mm, which can meet the hand insertion requirements in actual operation, provide users with sufficient operating space, and avoid the problem of insufficient opening height causing difficulty in inserting the hand and inconvenience in applying force, thus affecting the unpacking efficiency.

[0041] In one embodiment, the interface 120 is located on the boundary edge between two adjacent sidewalls of the housing body 110.

[0042] In the above embodiment, since the junction edge itself is a key part of the load-bearing and connection of the box body 110, setting the interface 120 here can reduce the damage to the integrity of a single side wall, avoid the problem of the side wall strength decreasing due to the opening, and ensure the overall load-bearing and protection capabilities of the box body 110; and when force is applied to the easy-open area 122 of the interface 120, it can simultaneously drive the two adjacent side walls to open outward, which can form a more spacious retrieval space compared to a single side wall opening.

[0043] As an alternative implementation, the interface 120 may also be provided on the side wall of the housing body 110.

[0044] In one embodiment, the interface 120 is provided in two sets, and the two sets of interface 120 are respectively located on two opposing boundary edges of the housing body 110.

[0045] In the above embodiment, when the two sets of opposite docking ports 120 are opened together, the four side walls of the box body 110 will be opened outward simultaneously to form a wider access channel. This avoids the problem of obstruction in retrieving items due to the limited opening range, making the process of taking out items smoother and less strenuous, without having to repeatedly adjust the angle of the items or squeeze the box body 110.

[0046] In another embodiment of this invention, a set of connectors 120 may be provided, and a set of connectors 120 may be located on a boundary edge of the housing body 110.

[0047] In one embodiment, a pre-deformation structure 130 is provided on the side wall of the housing body 110, and the pre-deformation structure 130 is located at the junction of the fixed area 121 and the easy-open area 122.

[0048] In the above embodiments, by setting the pre-deformation structure 130, the box body 110 can be guided to more easily generate outward deformation at the pre-deformation structure 130, reducing the force threshold and making it easy for even users with less strength to open, thus improving the ease and efficiency of unpacking. Furthermore, the pre-deformation structure 130 is only added at the junction of the original fixed area 121 and easy-open area 122 through process optimization, without changing the basic structure of the box body 110, avoiding additional cost increases.

[0049] It should be noted that the pre-deformation structure 130 in this embodiment includes, but is not limited to, pre-folded lines, horizontal pressing lines, point-break connecting lines, pre-cut seams, etc.

[0050] In one embodiment, the pre-deformed structure 130 is a pre-folded line; the pre-folded line is perpendicular to the extension direction of the connector 120.

[0051] In the above embodiment, the setting of the pre-fold line can ensure that when the side wall of the easy-open area 122 is subjected to force, it can bend outward along this line and open, effectively preventing random and irregular bending of the side wall of the body 110, making the opening action more standardized and the opening shape more neat; avoiding the diffusion of stress to unexpected areas, thereby ensuring that the supporting strength of the main structure of the body 110 is not affected, and maximizing the preservation of the structural integrity of the lower fixed area 121 while achieving convenient opening.

[0052] In a specific implementation, the pre-fold line is formed by an indentation process to create a continuous groove on the side wall of the housing body 110, thereby weakening the mechanical strength at that location. When an external force is applied to the easy-open area 122, the side wall of the housing body 110 will bend along this pre-fold line, achieving a regular opening action.

[0053] According to an embodiment of the present invention, another aspect provides a packaging structure, including an outer packaging box 200 and an inner packaging box 300; the inner packaging box 300 is housed inside the outer packaging box 200; the outer packaging box 200 and / or the inner packaging box 300 are the box structure 100 described above.

[0054] In the above embodiments, since the outer packaging box 200 and / or the inner packaging box 300 are the box structure 100 described above, they have all the technical effects of the box structure 100 described above.

[0055] In one embodiment of this example, the outer packaging box 200 is the box structure 100 described above, and the inner packaging box 300 is a conventional box, which facilitates the removal of the inner packaging box 300 from the inside of the outer packaging box 200.

[0056] In one embodiment of this example, the inner packaging box 300 is the box structure 100 described above. The inner packaging box 300 is a conventional box, which facilitates the removal of packaged items from the inner packaging box 300.

[0057] In another embodiment of this example, the outer packaging box 200 is the box structure 100 described above, and the inner packaging box 300 is also the box structure 100 described above, which facilitates the removal of the inner packaging box 300 from the inside of the outer packaging box 200, and facilitates the removal of the packaged items from the inner packaging box 300.

[0058] In one embodiment, there is a first gap 400 between the side wall of the inner packaging box 300 and the side wall of the outer packaging box 200, and the first gap 400 is less than 5 mm.

[0059] In the above embodiments, by limiting the first gap 400 to less than 5mm, a certain buffer space can be reserved. When the outer packaging box 200 is subjected to slight collision or compression, the slight compression of the air in the first gap 400 or the small deformation of the side wall can absorb part of the external force, reducing the impact directly transmitted to the inner packaging box 300 and the items inside, thus playing a basic protective role. Furthermore, the first gap 400 of less than 5mm can effectively limit the shaking amplitude of the inner packaging box 300 within the outer packaging box 200, preventing the inner packaging box 300 from undergoing violent displacement or collision due to excessive gap during transportation or handling, ensuring the stability of the items inside the box. At the same time, while meeting the requirements of protection and stability, it can also avoid the overall volume redundancy of the packaging due to excessive gap, saving costs and improving the utilization rate of storage space and transportation loading efficiency.

[0060] In specific implementations, there are no restrictions on the shape of the outer packaging box 200 and the inner packaging box 300. The outer packaging box 200 and the inner packaging box 300 can be cuboid structures or cube structures.

[0061] In one embodiment of this example, when both the outer packaging box 200 and the inner packaging box 300 are cuboid structures, a first gap 400 is reserved between the long side panels on both sides of the outer packaging box 200 and the inner packaging box 300.

[0062] In another embodiment of this example, when both the outer packaging box 200 and the inner packaging box 300 are cuboid structures, a first gap 400 is reserved between the short side panels on both sides of the outer packaging box 200 and the inner packaging box 300.

[0063] In another embodiment of this example, when both the outer packaging box 200 and the inner packaging box 300 are cuboid structures, a first gap 400 is reserved between the short side panels and the long side panels on both sides of the outer packaging box 200 and the inner packaging box 300.

[0064] In another embodiment of this example, when both the outer packaging box 200 and the inner packaging box 300 are cubic structures, a first gap 400 is reserved between all the opposite side walls of the outer packaging box 200 and the inner packaging box 300.

[0065] In one embodiment, when the easy-open area 122 of the outer packaging box 200 opens outward, a second gap is formed between the side wall of the inner packaging box 300 and the side wall of the outer packaging box 200 at the position corresponding to the easy-open area 122, and the second gap is greater than or equal to 10 mm.

[0066] In the above embodiment, since the thickness of an adult's finger is about 10mm, if the gap between the inner packaging box 300 and the outer packaging box 200 is smaller than the thickness of a finger, it is difficult to insert a finger between the inner packaging box 300 and the outer packaging box 200 when unpacking, making it difficult to remove the inner packaging box 300. By limiting the second gap to greater than or equal to 10mm, when the easy-open area 122 of the outer packaging box 200 opens outward, a second gap of greater than or equal to 10mm is formed between the inner packaging box 300 and the side wall of the outer packaging box 200 at the corresponding position, which can create sufficient operating space, making it convenient for the user to insert their finger into the second gap to contact and remove the inner packaging box 300, avoiding the problem of difficulty in inserting the hand and difficulty in removing the box due to the second gap being too small.

[0067] In one embodiment of this example, when both the outer packaging box 200 and the inner packaging box 300 are cuboid structures, when the easy-open area 122 of the outer packaging box 200 opens outward, a second gap is formed between the long side panels on both sides of the outer packaging box 200 and the inner packaging box 300 at the position corresponding to the easy-open area 122.

[0068] In another embodiment of this example, when both the outer packaging box 200 and the inner packaging box 300 are cuboid structures, when the easy-open area 122 of the outer packaging box 200 opens outward, a second gap is formed between the short side panels on both sides of the outer packaging box 200 and the inner packaging box 300 at the position corresponding to the easy-open area 122.

[0069] In another embodiment of this example, when both the outer packaging box 200 and the inner packaging box 300 are cuboid structures, when the easy-open area 122 of the outer packaging box 200 opens outward, a second gap is formed at the position corresponding to the easy-open area 122, between the short side panels on both sides of the outer packaging box 200 and the long side panels.

[0070] In another embodiment of this example, when both the outer packaging box 200 and the inner packaging box 300 are cubic structures, when the easy-open area 122 of the outer packaging box 200 opens outward, a second gap is formed between all the opposite side walls of the outer packaging box 200 and the inner packaging box 300 at the position corresponding to the easy-open area 122.

[0071] Although embodiments of the present invention have been described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and such modifications and variations all fall within the scope defined by the appended claims.
