Definitions

  • the disclosure relates to a package box r more particularly to a package box that can be laid flat.
  • Conventional cardboard package boxes are produced by first cutting a cardboard into a panel that is able to be eventually folded into a package box, then transporting the panel from the manufacturer to the packer, where the panel is folded to form the package box for use. This reduces the bulk of the package box during transport thereof and allows more package boxes to be transported in one trip, thereby saving transportation costs.
  • a panel of the conventional package box is generally configured to include a quadrangular body that is reserved for being folded into walls of the package box, and at least one protrusion that protrudes from an outer periphery of the quadrangular body for being folded as a cover.
  • a problem with this design is that the protrusion(s) protruding from the outer periphery of the quadrangular body is susceptible to damage under collision during the transportation process, particularly at fold line(s) connecting the protrusion(s) to the quadrangular body, where tearing often occurs.
  • Another drawback associated with the conventional package box is that the protrusion(s) causes the entire panel to have a largely irregular contour so that multiple panels are relatively difficult to be evenly stacked and wrapped for transportation.
  • the object of the disclosure is to provide a package box that can alleviate at least one of the aforesaid drawbacks of the prior art.
  • the package box of the disclosure includes a four-sided outer panel having a plurality of parallel panel fold lines and an outer connection region that is disposed between two adjacent ones of the panel fold lines, and a retainer made from a foldable panel and connected to the outer connection region of the outer panel.
  • the retainer has two spaced-apart retainer walls, each of which has a bottom panel part connected to the outer connection region, a top panel part above the bottom panel part, and first and second side panel, parts that interconnect the bottom and top panel parts.
  • Each of the retainer walls is convertible between a used position, where the top and bottom panel parts are spaced apart from each other, and where the first and second side panel parts extend substantially perpendicularly to the outer connection region to thereby cooperate with the top and bottom panel parts to form a rectangular hollow wall structure, and a non-used position, where the rectangular hollow wall structure lays flat on the outer connection region, collapses at two first corner portions of the rectangular hollow wall structure that are diagonally opposite to each other, and becomes flat at two second corner portions of the rectangular hollow wall structure that are diagonally opposite to each other.
  • the second side panel parts of the retainer walls are disposed between the first side panel parts of the retainer walls when the retainer walls are at the used position.
  • the outer panel is folded along the panel fold lines to extend around the retainer.
