The present invention relates to a packaging material, and more particularly to a packaging cushioning material for preventing the product from being damaged by external impact or external force during packaging for transportation or storage of the product.

In general, a product, which is referred to as an industrial product or a home appliance, is used to prevent damage during transportation or storage, and a packing material is inserted into the inside of the box to prevent shock from being transmitted to the product. An example of packaging using the cushioning material is shown in FIG. 1. Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described through a microwave oven.

According to FIG. 1, the outer case 3 forms the external appearance of the microwave oven 1. The appearance of the microwave oven by the outer case 3 is generally hexahedral. Reference numeral 4 is an upper surface of the microwave oven formed by the outer case 3, and reference numeral 5 is a side of the microwave oven. In addition, the front of the microwave oven 1 is generally provided with a door 7 and the operation unit (9).

When packaging the microwave oven 1 in the packaging box 20, the upper buffer 10 is installed on the upper portion of the microwave oven (1). The upper buffer 10 is installed between the upper portion of the microwave oven 1 and the packaging box 20 to prevent the shock from the outside to be transmitted to the microwave oven (1). Four corners of the upper buffer 10 are provided with corners 11, respectively. The corner portion 11 is formed at a position corresponding to the upper edge of the microwave oven 1.

In addition, an upper seating surface 12 is formed on a lower surface of the upper buffer material 10. In general, the upper seating surface 12 is the same as the size of the upper surface of the outer case 3 of the microwave oven 1 is formed so that the outer case 3 is not exposed to the outside.

Lower buffers 15 and 15 ′ are provided below the microwave oven 1. The lower buffers 15 and 15 'are provided to protect the lower portion of the microwave oven 1 and are provided along the lower ends of the microwave oven 1.

The lower buffers (15, 15 ') is formed by the letter B bent at a right angle as shown in Figure 2, the vertical rib (15a) extending upwards relative to the bent surface and the horizontal rib (15b) extending forward It consists of). Edge portions 16 and 16 'are provided at both ends of the lower buffers 15 and 15', respectively. The corner portions 16 and 16 'are attached to both the front surface of the vertical rib 15a and the top surface of the horizontal rib 15b. Therefore, a predetermined space is formed between the corner portions 16 and 16 '. This space is accommodated at both ends of the lower surface of the microwave oven 1 when the packaging with the microwave oven, the bottom surface is the lower seating surface (17, 17 ').

A cushioning member 18 is provided on the lower seating surfaces 17, 17 ′, that is, the upper surface of the horizontal rib 15b. The shock absorbing member 18 is generally composed of corrugated pads, commonly referred to as corrugated cardboard, and the corrugated pads are formed between two flat sheets of paper, having a corrugated portion 18a vertically corrugated therebetween. It is finished. The wrinkle portion 18a is composed of a plurality of peaks 19a protruding upward and a plurality of valleys 19b protruding downward between the peaks 19a. This wrinkle portion 18a has a substantially bellows structure in which the peak 19a and the valley 19b are sequentially provided. In addition, the buffer member 18 shown in the drawing is a state in which several corrugated pads are stacked horizontally.

On the other hand, the inside of the packing box 20 is provided with a storage space 21 for receiving the microwave oven 1, the storage space 21 is the microwave oven 1 and the upper and lower buffers (10, 15, 15 '). ) Has a volume that can be stored. The packaging box 20 is provided with a plurality of covers 22 for opening and closing the upper portion of the storage space 21.

However, the above-described prior art has the following problems.

After the packaging box 20 is packaged outside the microwave oven 1, the microwave oven 1 is generally stored and transported. In this process, the packaging box 20 is generally stacked in multiple stages in order to increase the storage amount and transport amount per unit area.

When a plurality of packing boxes 20 are stacked on the top of the packing box 20, the packing boxes located on the lower side receive loads as many as the number of packing boxes 20 stacked on the upper side, and such loads are ultimately stored in the packing box 20. It acts as an external force against the upper and lower buffers (10, 15, 15 ') surrounding the microwave (1). A buffer member 18 protruding from the lower seating surfaces 17 and 17 'and the lower seating surfaces 17 and 17' of the lower cushioning members 15 and 15 'in contact with the lower surface of the microwave oven 1 is upper side. You receive the direct load from. The buffer member 18 is formed by corrugated pads stacked horizontally. Therefore, the protrusion of the corrugated pad 18a and the peak 19a of the corrugated pad constituting the buffer member 18 is perpendicular to the load direction of the microwave oven. This acid 19a is crushed by the load.

As time passes, the upper and lower buffers 10, 15, and 15 'under load gradually become distorted, and thus the buffering force continues to fall. In particular, the shock absorbing member 18, which is subjected to a relatively large load, has a severe degree of crushing due to the crushing of the wrinkles 18a and the acid 19a therein. As described above, the crushing of the buffer member and the buffer member causes an increase in the distance between the microwave oven 1 and the upper and lower buffer members 10, 15, and 15 '. This increase in spacing allows the package box 20 to withstand the load from the upper side, resulting in a breakage of the packaging box 20.

The breakage of the lower packing box 20 which is relatively heavily loaded leads to the fall of the plurality of packing boxes 20 which are loaded, resulting in a fatal problem that the microwave oven 1 housed therein is damaged.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to solve the problems of the prior art as described above, the object of the present invention is to enable a more stable product packaging through a rigid packaging material.

According to a feature of the present invention for achieving the above object, the present invention is located between the product and the packaging box, the upper and lower buffers to prevent the external shock or external force is transmitted to the product; It is formed on one side of the lower buffer material, and comprises a vertical buffer member for supporting the product.

The vertical buffer member is preferably composed of a corrugated pad provided with a bone therein, and the direction of the valley of the corrugated pad is most preferably configured to be perpendicular to the direction of the load.

The vertical buffer member is preferably formed of one or more pieces, more preferably fixed to the buffer member by an adhesive. In addition, the vertical buffer member may be fixed to the lower buffer member by a coupling recess.

According to the packaging cushioning material having such a configuration there is an advantage that the damage of the packaging box and the risk of falling during multi-stage loading is also prevented.

Hereinafter, a preferred embodiment of the packaging cushioning material according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. For ease of explanation, the product uses a microwave oven as in the prior art, and reference numerals refer to those of the prior art.
