[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a packaging structure for electronic devices.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 The electronic equipment is usually packed in a packing case using a cushioning material such as Styrofoam. A conventional packaging structure of an electronic device using a packaging holding member such as Styrofoam will be described. FIG. 5 is an exploded perspective view showing an example of a conventional packaging structure. The electronic device 1 is housed in the outer box 4 together with the accessory 2 and the power cord 3 using a cushioning material. The cushioning material 5 protects the upper surface of the electronic device 1, and is composed of a corrugated board 5a that fits the inner size of the outer box 4, and a styrofoam 5b bonded to the lower portion of the corrugated board 5a. The styrofoam 6 is a cushioning material installed in the lower part of the electronic device 1. Further, four flat-plate polystyrene foam 7 are prepared on the inner side surface of the outer box 4. The protective cover 3 a is a protective paper for preventing the power cord 3 from coming into contact with the edge of the electronic device 1.

In order to insert the electronic device 1 into the exterior box 4 using such a cushioning material, first, the polystyrene foam 6 is laid on the bottom surface of the exterior box 4. Next, four foam polystyrene 7 are set up on the inner side surface of the outer box 4. Then, the electronic device 1 is inserted, and the accessory 2 and the power cord 3 are placed on the upper surface of the electronic device 1. At this time, the power cord 3 connected to the main body of the electronic device 1 comes into contact with the edge of the housing of the electronic device 1, so that the protective cover 3a is sandwiched in this portion. Then, the upper surface of the electronic device 1 is covered with the cushioning material 5, and the lid of the exterior box 4 is closed.

A packaging structure as shown in FIG. 6 is also often used. That is, the structure is such that cushioning materials 8a, 8b such as styrofoam having concave portions are formed, and both side portions of the electronic device 1 are inserted into and held in the concave portions.

[0005]

However, in the packaging structure as shown in FIG. 5, when the four Styrofoams 7 are mounted inside the outer box 4, the Styrofoams 7 easily fall down and the electronic device 1 is inserted. It was necessary to insert the styrofoam 7 into the device while holding it by hand. Further, when the power supply cord 3 is placed on the upper surface of the electronic device 1, an unreasonable force is applied to the pulled-out portion of the power supply cord 3, and there is a possibility that the power supply cord 3 may come into contact with the edge of the housing of the electronic device 1. Also, the accessory 2 is only on the upper surface of the electronic device 1, and is unstable with respect to external vibration.

It is also assumed that the electronic device 1 packaged with such a structure falls along with the outer box 4 during transportation. In this case, the housing is less damaged by the impact on the upper surface and the lower surface of the electronic device 1, but if the outer box 4 falls obliquely, the landing occurs at the corners of the housing, and the corners of the housing of the electronic device 1 are damaged. There is a risk of

Further, a large amount of Styrofoam is used as a cushioning material in conventional packaging. Foamed polystyrene had the drawback of generating a large amount of heat and harmful substances when incinerated, shortening the life of the incinerator. Therefore, reduction of use was also desired from the viewpoint of protecting the global environment.

The present invention has been made in view of the above conventional problems, and does not use styrofoam as a cushioning material, facilitates packaging and taking out of an electronic device, and damages the electronic device due to a drop impact. The purpose is to realize a packaging structure that can prevent

[0009]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The present invention is a packaging structure that uses a cushioning package holding member that abuts each surface of the built-in product to protect the built-in product, and an outer box that houses the package holding member. And a pair of side plate portions that are provided integrally with the bottom plate portion on both the left and right sides of the bottom plate portion to hold the side surface of the built-in product and that have cutout pieces that are separated by the cutting portion and abut against each other. And a lateral plate portion that is formed integrally with the portion at a position symmetrical to the cutout piece of the side plate and that holds one surface of the built-in product by bending into a tubular shape.

[0010]

[Action]

 According to the present invention having such characteristics, the built-in product is placed on the bottom plate portion of the package holding member. Next, the side plate portion is bent along the side surface and the upper surface of the built-in object. Then, the lateral plate is bent into a tubular shape at the front of the built-in object. On the other hand, the notch pieces separated by the cutting part of the side plate are bent so as to hold the back surface of the built-in object. As a result, a space is formed in the front and back of the built-in object, and the accessory of the built-in object is loaded in this space. Then, when the built-in object held by the packing holding member is inserted into the outer box and wrapped, a packaging structure having a high cushioning effect can be obtained.
