Description

Foldable logistics box

Technical Field

The invention belongs to the technical field of logistics packaging, and particularly relates to a foldable logistics box.

Background

Nowadays, with the rise of electronic commerce in China, the logistics industry is also developed unprecedentedly, and the delivery quantity of express delivery in China is high to tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of pieces every day. Most express delivery pieces on the market are packaged by cartons, and the packaging mode mainly has the following defects: first, after the express delivery reaches the receiver, the carton used for wrapping the express delivery is generally directly discarded, so a large amount of paper garbage is generated, and although the carton can be recycled, the cost required by recycling still consumes a large amount of social resources, and secondary pollution such as waste water and waste gas is easily generated. Secondly, the guard action of carton is limited, to some fragile, vulnerable express delivery piece, leads to express delivery piece to damage very easily among the transportation, although can place buffers such as disposable gasbag in the carton for strengthening the protection among the prior art, these buffers are difficult to guarantee to closely support simultaneously with carton and express delivery piece and lean on, and express delivery piece can appear rocking wantonly in the carton, and the protective effect is limited. Thirdly, the carton packing mode is too crude, even be unpacked apart by other people in transit and also can recover easily, and hardly by the recipient discovery, this probably leads to the express delivery both sides' privacy to suffer disclosure.

The method for packaging the express delivery by adopting the logistics box comprises the following specific steps:

step 1: placing the express delivery piece into a logistics box with an inflatable air bag 101 and an air bag pressure detection device inside, wherein when the express delivery piece is placed into the logistics box, the air bag 101 is in an uninflated state;

step 2: buckling a box cover 12 of the logistics box with a box body and connecting and fastening the box cover 12 and the box body by adopting a fastening piece;

and step 3: inflating the air bag 101 in the logistics box by using an inflation inlet 111 arranged on the outer wall of the logistics box, and detecting the pressure change of the air bag 101 by using an air bag pressure detection device; when the pressure of the air bag 101 reaches a preset value, the air bag 101 is stopped to be inflated;

the logistics boxes are foldable logistics boxes, and before the mails are loaded into the logistics boxes, the logistics boxes need to be unfolded from a folded state to a use state.

The signal output end of the air bag pressure detection device is connected with the controller, an air source control valve for inflating the air bag 101 is also connected with the controller, and when the controller detects that the air pressure measured by the air bag pressure detection device reaches the preset air pressure of the controller, the controller automatically controls the control valve of the air source to be closed.

In step 2, the specific installation steps of the fastener are as follows: firstly, a pull belt 13 with inverted teeth penetrates from top to bottom through a hole 122 on the edge of a box cover 12, and the lower end of the pull belt 13 is ensured to penetrate into a one-way tensioning mechanism 14 arranged at the upper end of a side wall 11 of the box body; then the snap ring 15 with the inverted teeth is sleeved on the drawstring 13, the drawstring 13 is pulled upwards by force, and the snap ring 15 is pressed downwards at the same time until the box cover 12 is tightly attached to the box body.
