Packing Box Step Structure for Space Optimization
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing packing boxes for electronic products are inefficient in space utilization and material usage, often requiring excessive material and increased transportation costs due to separate packaging of products and accessories, and existing partition structures are labor-intensive, unstable, and provide poor buffering.
Innovation Solution
A packing box design featuring a cover, box body, connecting plate, and folding lining partition that forms a step structure to optimize space utilization, allowing for multiple objects to be accommodated while reducing material waste and improving stability through detachable partitions and protection slopes.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Object-affected harmful factors
If separate small packing boxes are used for products and accessories, then protection against impact is improved, but material usage increases excessively
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the product packaging and accessory packaging into a single integrated packing box structure. The box body contains both the electronic product and accessories within one unified container, eliminating the need for multiple separate small packing boxes. This integration reduces material consumption while maintaining protective functionality through the single box structure and internal partition design.
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple partitions are arranged by adhesion to separate space, then space separation is achieved, but labor and time consumption increase
Solution Approach 1:
The packing box employs a segmented partition structure that divides the internal space into distinct regions for the electronic product and accessories. These partitions are designed as integrated components that can be assembled through simple insertion or folding mechanisms rather than requiring adhesive bonding, thereby achieving effective space separation while minimizing labor and time consumption during assembly.
3Adaptability or versatility
If partitions are arranged by adhesion, then space separation is achieved, but structural stability deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The partition structure is designed as segmented, rigid components that are mechanically interlocked or friction-fitted into the box body rather than being adhesively bonded. This segmentation approach creates stable, load-bearing dividers that maintain their structural integrity and provide reliable space separation without compromising the overall stability of the packing box composition.
4Object-affected harmful factors
If small packing boxes of different sizes are used, then product protection is improved, but volume of outer packing box increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines the protection functions of multiple differently-sized packing boxes into a single optimized packing box design. The internal partition structure is configured to accommodate the electronic product and accessories in a space-efficient arrangement, eliminating empty spaces that would exist if separate boxes of different sizes were used. This unified structure maintains adequate protection while minimizing the overall volume of the packing box.

AI summary
A packing box is provided. The packing box includes a cover, a box body, a connecting plate, and a lining partition. The connecting plate is connected between the cover and the box body through bending, so that the cover is adapted to rotate relative to the box body to open and close. The lining partition is disposed in the box body and is folded to form a main space of a step structure. The step structure is configured to hold an object. A lower surface of the step structure and an inner surface of the box body jointly form an accommodation space for accommodating another object.
