Display Packaging Box with Multi-Level Stacking and Tear-Open Front Plate
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing display and packaging boxes struggle with poor product package storage efficiency and unstable stacking, preventing lower-level boxes from displaying products when stacked, resulting in an unattractive store display.
Innovation Solution
A display and packaging box design featuring a box body with a front and back plate, side plates, and a bottom plate that allows product packages to be arranged upright on multiple levels, with a tear-openable front plate and fall prevention mechanism to maintain visibility and stability, enabling effective display of products across all levels.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of manufacture
If product packages are arranged in a single line in the packaging box, then the structure is simple, but the storage efficiency is poor due to unused space in the upper part
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transitions from a single-line arrangement to a multi-level three-dimensional configuration. Product packages are stacked vertically on top of each other within the packaging box, utilizing both horizontal and vertical spaces. This dimensional change allows multiple product packages to be accommodated in the same footprint, significantly improving storage efficiency while maintaining structural simplicity through the use of a box body with standard walls and a bottom plate.
2Adaptability or versatility
If packaging boxes are stacked into multiple levels for display, then the display capacity increases, but only the top box can be opened while lower boxes remain closed
Solution Approach 1:
The front plate of the packaging box is divided into multiple independent opening sections. Each section can be opened separately, allowing the top box to be accessed while lower boxes remain closed. This segmentation enables selective access to different levels without requiring the entire stack to be opened, maintaining display capacity while improving operational ease.
Solution Approach 2:
The front plate opening mechanism allows the top section to be extracted or removed independently from the lower sections. This extraction capability enables customers to view and access products in the top box without disturbing the stacked lower boxes, preserving the multi-level display structure while providing easy access to the most visible level.
3Quantity of substance
If product packages are arranged on top of one another for display, then storage efficiency is enhanced, but the packages become unstable and cannot be stacked
Solution Approach 1:
The packaging box is designed with an internal structure that nests and secures multiple product packages. The box body includes walls and a bottom plate that form a contained space, with the front plate opening mechanism allowing controlled access. This nesting structure stabilizes vertically arranged product packages by constraining them within the box boundaries, preventing them from toppling while maintaining the space-efficient stacked configuration.
4Loss of information
If the front plate is made fully openable for display, then product visibility is maximized, but product packages may fall out from the opening
Solution Approach 1:
The front plate is segmented into multiple independent opening sections rather than being a single large opening. This segmentation allows the top section to be opened for display while the lower sections remain closed, providing product visibility in the top box while maintaining containment in lower boxes. The segmented design thus balances visibility and containment requirements.
Solution Approach 2:
Different sections of the front plate have different opening characteristics. The top section is designed to be fully openable for maximum visibility, while lower sections maintain closed structures for containment. This local differentiation of opening properties allows the front plate to simultaneously provide product visibility where needed and product containment where required, resolving the contradiction between these two functions.

AI summary
A box that has enhanced product package storing efficiency and that can display product packages stored inside. The box includes a box body and a cover that can open and close the upper surface opening of the box body. The box body has a front plate, a back plate, right and left side plate, a bottom plate that has a rectangular shape, and a storage space for a plurality of product packages arranged on both upper and lower levels by placing, on each product package that has been placed on the bottom plate, another product package. The front plate is capable of being tear-opened to form an opening that makes the stored product packages visible, and the opening is provided with a fall preventer that supports the front-most product package on the upper level and prevents it from falling from the opening.
