PACKING BOX - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240101306 titled 'PACKING BOX
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a packing box made of corrugated paper with a unique lid design for improved sealing and structural integrity.
- The packing box is made of corrugated paper with ridges and grooves in an array direction.
- It includes a first side part, a second side part, an inner lid part, and an outer lid part.
- The inner lid part is bonded to the outer lid part using an adhesion part and a score part for easy opening.
- The score part does not reach the outer surface of the outer lid part, ensuring the box remains intact during handling.
Potential Applications
The technology could be used in packaging for fragile items, electronics, or food products where secure and easy-to-open boxes are needed.
Problems Solved
This innovation solves the issue of boxes coming apart during transportation or storage due to poor lid design or adhesive failure.
Benefits
The packing box provides a secure closure while also allowing for easy opening without damaging the box or its contents.
Potential Commercial Applications
The technology could be applied in the shipping and logistics industry, e-commerce packaging, and retail packaging for various products.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be traditional packing boxes with standard lid designs that may not offer the same level of security and ease of opening as the patented design.
