DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] Referring to FIGS. 1 to 4, FIG. 1 is a perspective view illustrating a cushion package box 1 according to an embodiment of the disclosure, FIG. 2 is an exploded view illustrating the cushion package box 1 shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 3 is a perspective view illustrating the first cushion member 12 and the paper tubes 14 shown in FIG. 2 being disposed in the box body 10, and FIG. 4 is a perspective view illustrating the first cushion member 12 shown in FIG. 2.

[0023] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the cushion package box 1 comprises a box body 10, a first cushion member 12, at least one paper tube 14 and a second cushion member 16. In this embodiment, the number of the at least one paper tube 14 is four and the four paper tubes 14 are strip-shaped. The first cushion member 12, the paper tubes 14 and the second cushion member 16 are disposed in the box body 10, wherein the paper tubes 14 are in contact with the first cushion member 12. When assembling the cushion package box 1, the first cushion member 12 and the four paper tubes 14 may be placed into the box body 10 first, such that the four paper tubes 14 are arranged to form a rectangle and surrounds the first cushion member 12, as shown in FIG. 3. Then, the second cushion member 16 is placed into the box body 10, such that the second cushion member 16 is located above the first cushion member 12. When the cushion package box 1 is used to pack an object (e.g. electronic product), the object is sandwiched in between the second cushion member 16, the first cushion member 12 and the paper tubes 14, and the paper tubes 14 surround the object to provide cushion protection for the object.

[0024] In another embodiment, the first cushion member 12 may be disposed on the bottom of the box body 10 first and then the paper tubes 14 are disposed on the first cushion member 12. Accordingly, the paper tubes 14 may selectively surround the first cushion member 12 or be disposed on the first cushion member 12 according to practical requirements.

[0025] As shown in FIG. 4, the first cushion member 12 has a porous structure 120. In this embodiment, the first cushion member 12 may be a honeycomb board, i.e. the porous structure 120 is honeycomb-shaped. For further explanation, the honeycomb board may comprise two paper plates and a plurality of paper tubes disposed between the two paper plates, wherein the openings of the paper tubes are perpendicular to the two paper plates.

[0026] Furthermore, an opening direction A1 of the porous structure 120 is different from an opening direction A2 of the paper tube 14. When the first cushion member 12 is disposed in the box body 10, the opening direction A1 of the porous structure 120 is perpendicular to a bottom surface 100 of the box body 10 (as shown in FIG. 2). It should be noted that the height of the porous structure 120 may be adjusted according to the object to be packed. As shown in FIG. 2, a cross section of a tube body of the paper tube 14 may be rectangular. In this embodiment, the paper tube 14 may be made of a spool paper. When the paper tube 14 is disposed in the box body 10, the opening direction A2 of the paper tube 14 is parallel to the bottom surface 100 of the box body 10. Thus, the opening direction A1 of the porous structure 120 of the first cushion member 12 is perpendicular to the opening direction A2 of the paper tube 14.

[0027] By means of the cooperation between the first cushion member 12 with the porous structure 120 and the paper tube 14, the disclosure can effectively increase the cushion effect and the compression coefficient for the object during transportation. The disclosure replaces the molded pulp and/or the corrugated paper of the prior art by the first cushion member 12 with the porous structure 120 and the paper tube 14, so as to reduce assembly materials of the cushion package box 1, reduce assembly cost, and improve assembly efficiency. Since the structure of the cushion package box 1 is simplified, the disclosure can effectively avoid the problems such as improper assembly and lack of components due to manual assembly operation.

[0028] In this embodiment, the second cushion member 16 may be a molded pulp pad, such that a lower surface of the second cushion member 16 may be formed into a corresponding shape (e.g. an arc or other regular/irregular shapes) according to the appearance of the object to be packaged, so as to better fit the object and further provide a better cushion effect.

[0029] Referring to FIGS. 5 and 6, FIG. 5 is a perspective view illustrating a paper tube 14 according to another embodiment of the disclosure, and FIG. 6 is a perspective view illustrating the paper tube 14 shown in FIG. 5 being bent to be L-shaped.

[0030] As shown in FIG. 5, a tube body of the paper tube 14 has two cutting grooves 140 and a reinforcing portion 142, wherein the reinforcing portion 142 is located between the two cutting grooves 140. When the tube body of the paper tube 14 is bent to be L-shaped shown in FIG. 6, the reinforcing portion 142 is retracted into the tube body of the paper tube 14 from one of the two cutting grooves 140, such that the reinforcing portion 142 is located in the tube body of the paper tube 14, so as to reinforce the structural strength of the paper tube 14. Accordingly, the number of the at least one paper tube 14 of the disclosure may be two, i.e. the aforesaid cushion package box 1 may comprise two paper tubes 14 shown in FIG. 5, wherein the two paper tubes 14 are bent to be L-shaped, such that the two paper tubes 14 may be arranged to form a rectangle to surround the first cushion member 12 shown in FIG. 2 or be disposed on the first cushion member 12.

[0031] In another embodiment, one of two paper tubes may be bent to be U-shaped through the structure shown in FIG. 5, and the other one of the two paper tubes may be strip-shaped shown in FIG. 2, such that the two paper tubes may be arranged to form a rectangle to surround the first cushion member 12 shown in FIG. 2 or be disposed on the first cushion member 12.

[0032] In another embodiment, the number of the at least one paper tube 14 of the disclosure may be one and the paper tube 14 may be bent to form a rectangle through the structure shown in FIG. 5, so as to surround the first cushion member 12 shown in FIG. 2 or be disposed on the first cushion member 12. For further explanation, every two adjacent paper tubes 14 may be connected by the cutting groove 140 and the reinforcing portion 142 to form one single paper tune.

For further explanation, the object packed by the cushion package box 1 may be the electronic product 30 (e.g. display device, notebook computer, tablet computer, television, all-in-one device, and so on). When the object packed by the cushion package box 1 is the electronic product 30, the electronic product 30 is sandwiched in between the second cushion member 16, the first cushion member 12 and the paper tubes 14, and the paper tubes 14 surround the electronic product 30, so as to provide cushion protection for the electronic product 30.

[0038] Referring to FIG. 12, FIG. 12 is a perspective view illustrating a cushion package box 1′ according to another embodiment of the disclosure. As shown in FIG. 12, the at least one paper tube of the cushion package box 1′ comprises two L-shaped paper tubes 14a and a strip-shaped paper tube 14b. Each of the two L-shaped paper tubes 14a may be formed by bending a strip-shaped paper tube along a slot (like the slot 144 shown in FIG. 7) by 90 degrees. The two L-shaped paper tubes 14a are located at opposite sides of the box body 10, and opposite ends of the strip-shaped paper tube 14b respectively abut against the two L-shaped paper tubes 14a. As shown in FIG. 12, an edge (e.g. upper edge) of the first cushion member 12 abuts against the strip-shaped paper tube 14b, and another edge (e.g. lower edge) of the first cushion member 12 is sandwiched in between two ends of the two L-shaped paper tubes 14a. Accordingly, the first cushion member 12 can be positioned in the box body 10 stably.

[0039] Referring to FIG. 13, FIG. 13 is a perspective view illustrating a cushion package box 1″ according to another embodiment of the disclosure. As shown in FIG. 13, the at least one paper tube of the cushion package box 1′ comprises two L-shaped paper tubes 14a and two double-layer paper tubes 14c. Each of the two L-shaped paper tubes 14a may be formed by bending a strip-shaped paper tube along a slot (like the slot 144 shown in FIG. 7) by 90 degrees. For further explanation, the paper tube 14 shown in FIG. 7 may be bent along the slot 144 by 90 degrees toward a direction opposite to the slot 144, so as to form the L-shaped paper tube 14a shown in FIG. 13. Each of the two double-layer paper tubes 14c may be formed by bending a strip-shaped paper tube along a slot (like the slot 144 shown in FIG. 7) by 180 degrees, so as to increase the strength of the paper tube. For further explanation, the paper tube 14 shown in FIG. 7 may be bent along the slot 144 by 180 degrees toward a direction opposite to the slot 144, so as to form the double-layer paper tubes 14c shown in FIG. 13. The two L-shaped paper tubes 14a are located at opposite sides of the box body 10, and the two double-layer paper tubes 14c respectively abut against the two L-shaped paper tubes 14a. As shown in FIG. 13, an edge (e.g. upper edge) of the first cushion member 12 is sandwiched in between the two double-layer paper tubes 14c, and another edge (e.g. lower edge) of the first cushion member 12 is sandwiched in between two ends of the two L-shaped paper tubes 14a. Accordingly, the first cushion member 12 can be positioned in the box body 10 stably.

[0040] Referring to FIG. 14, FIG. 14 is a perspective view illustrating a paper tube 14′ according to another embodiment of the disclosure. As shown in FIG. 14, at least one reinforcing portion 148 may be bent from a side of the paper tube 14′ to abut against an inner surface 150 of the paper tube 14′ and form a through hole 146. In this embodiment, two reinforcing portions 148 are bent from a side of the paper tube 14′ to abut against the inner surface 150 of the paper tube 14′, but the disclosure is not so limited. When the paper tube 14′ is disposed in the aforesaid box body 10, the through hole 146 may be used to accommodate a protruding structure (e.g. function key, etc.) of an electronic product. Furthermore, the reinforcing portion 148 increases the strength of the paper tube 14′.

[0041] In another embodiment of the disclosure, the aforesaid first cushion member 12 may have at least one recess or opening for accommodating a protruding structure (e.g. function key, etc.) and/or accessories of an electronic product.

[0042] In another embodiment of the disclosure, the aforesaid paper tube 14 may have at least one recess or opening for accommodating a protruding structure (e.g. function key, etc.) and/or accessories of an electronic product.

[0043] As mentioned in the above, the disclosure replaces the molded pulp and/or the corrugated paper of the prior art by the first cushion member with the porous structure and the paper tube, so as to reduce assembly materials of the cushion package box, reduce assembly cost, and improve assembly efficiency. Since the structure of the cushion package box is simplified, the disclosure can effectively avoid the problems such as improper assembly and lack of components due to manual assembly operation. Furthermore, the cushion abilities of the first cushion member with the porous structure and the paper tube are good, such that the disclosure can effectively improve the protection to the product. Moreover, the material characteristics of the first cushion member with the porous structure and the paper tube may reduce the cushion distance, such that the whole volume of the cushion package box may be further reduced, so as to increase the packing capacity of the cushion package box and reduce the transportation cost. In practical applications, the cushion package box of the disclosure may be used to pack an object (e.g. electronic product) to form the electronic product cushion package assembly.

[0044] Those skilled in the art will readily observe that numerous modifications and alterations of the device and method may be made while retaining the teachings of the disclosure. Accordingly, the above disclosure should be construed as limited only by the metes and bounds of the appended claims.
