Packaging Box With Linkage-Driven Lifting Member
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional packaging boxes do not facilitate easy removal of objects, as they often require users to lift or pull objects straight out, which can be cumbersome, especially for objects with varying sizes or weights, and do not provide a mechanism to incline objects for easier access.
Innovation Solution
A packaging box design featuring a box body, a cover body, a pressing member, a linkage member, and a lifting member, where the linkage member moves with the cover body to drive the pressing member and lift the object away from the base plate, allowing the object to incline and protrude for easier retrieval.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If conventional packaging boxes are used without lifting mechanisms, then the structure remains simple, but object removal becomes cumbersome and requires significant user effort
Solution Approach 1:
The packaging box employs dynamic components including a pressing member that can move between pressed and released states, and a lifting member that transitions from a horizontal to an inclined position. These dynamic elements automatically adjust during object removal, transforming the static box structure into an active system that assists user operation without requiring complex external mechanisms
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs self-service through automatic triggering: when the cover body is opened, it automatically drives the linkage member which in turn activates the pressing member to release and the lifting member to incline. This self-actuating mechanism eliminates the need for separate control systems or additional user actions, achieving ease of operation while maintaining relatively simple structure
2Ease of operation
If objects are kept parallel to the base plate for stable storage, then storage stability is maintained, but object retrieval requires lifting the entire object which increases user effort
Solution Approach 1:
The lifting member is pre-positioned in a horizontal state during storage to maintain object stability. When retrieval is needed, the mechanism automatically transforms this pre-positioned lifting member into an inclined state that protrudes from the box, providing mechanical assistance to lift the object. This preliminary positioning allows the system to switch between stability during storage and ease of retrieval during operation
Solution Approach 2:
The lifting member transitions from a horizontal position (parallel to base plate) to an inclined position (protruding from box) by utilizing the vertical dimension. This dimensional change allows the object to be gradually lifted and inclined without disrupting its stable storage position, reducing retrieval effort while maintaining storage stability

AI summary
This disclosure provides a packaging box. The packaging box includes a box body, a cover body, a pressing member, a linkage member, and a lifting member. The box body includes a base plate. The cover body is configured to be closed or opened relative to the box body. The pressing member is connected to the box body. The linkage member is connected between the pressing member and the cover body. The lifting member is connected to the box body and is located above the pressing member. When the cover body is opened relative to the box body, the linkage member moves with the cover body to drive the pressing member to press against the lifting member, so that at least one part of the lifting member is pushed by the pressing member to move away from the base plate.
