Solution Overview

Problem

The existing packaging methods for battery cells are time-consuming and costly, requiring individual cases made of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) material, which increases material costs and carriage expenses.

Innovation Solution

A packaging box design featuring an external box with a removable cover, an internal box with a slide pad and guide partitions, allowing for easy disassembly and removal of battery cells, using corrugated cardboard for cost-effectiveness.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If battery cells are individually packaged in PET holders, then safety is ensured, but packaging time increases and material costs increase

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovesafetyVSAvoidpackaging speed
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines multiple battery cells into a single packaging box with a removable bottom plate, allowing multiple cells to be packaged simultaneously in one operation rather than individually in separate PET holders, thus increasing packaging speed while maintaining safety through the designed structural features

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

2Reliability

If battery cells are individually packaged in PET holders, then safety is ensured, but material costs increase

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovesafetyVSAvoidmaterial cost
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges multiple individual PET holder packages into a single reusable packaging box structure, reducing the total quantity of packaging materials needed while maintaining safety through the designed structural features of the box and removable bottom plate

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

3Reliability

If battery cells are individually packaged in PET holders, then safety is ensured, but carriage expenses increase

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovesafetyVSAvoidcarriage expense
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines multiple separately packaged battery cells into a single consolidated packaging box, reducing the total volume and number of separate packages that need to be transported, thus decreasing carriage expenses while maintaining safety through the designed structural features

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

4Reliability

If a complex packaging structure is used, then safety is ensured, but disassembly difficulty increases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovesafetyVSAvoiddisassembly ease
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides the packaging box into separable components including a removable bottom plate and side walls, allowing the structure to be easily disassembled by simply removing the bottom plate, thus maintaining safety through the segmented design while improving ease of operation for disassembly

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
