Abstract

In the case of electronic commerce, the present invention provides an integrated packaging system with cushioning that provides the necessary protection of the consumer goods contained therein from the rigors of shipping and parcel dispatch while providing significant benefits in terms of environmental protection, flexibility, and cost savings.

Description

Integrated electronic commerce packaging system with buffer device
Technical Field
The invention relates to an integrated electronic commerce packaging system with a buffer device, in particular to a packaging system for shipping consumer goods through an electronic commerce channel.
Background
Electronic commerce is an important and evolving business channel. This is especially true in the chinese market. Quick-wear products (e.g., packaged cosmetics, bottled shampoos or body washes) are one example of a class of goods sold by electronic commerce channels. There is a need to protect these consumer products from damage associated with shipping pressures and shipping requirements (i.e., the final arrival of the shipped goods from the manufacturer/e-retailer to the consumer/end user). In addition, there is a need for packages that are inherently quick, low cost and/or flexible. Currently, some consumer products are packaged in primary shipping boxes made of corrugated cardboard. Inserts (typically made of paper or plastic) are also used to secure the consumer products in place within the shipping container. While such systems do protect the consumer goods contained therein, they consume significant material costs. There is also an environmental cost associated with using such materials. In view of the growing trend of electronic commerce, coupled with the current demands for environmental and material costs and labor costs, there is a need to provide an integrated packaging system, particularly for electronic commerce designs, that provides the necessary protection for consumer goods, yet achieves savings and improves the consumer's out-of-box experience.
Disclosure of Invention
The applicant has unexpectedly found that the use of certain corrugated cardboard structures provides environmental and cost savings while providing the necessary protection for consumer products during shipment/transport in connection with electronic commerce, and in addition provides flexibility applicable to products of different sizes.
One aspect of the present invention provides a packaging system comprising one or more consumer goods housed in a six-sided corrugated cardboard box folded from corrugated cardboard, wherein the corrugated cardboard comprises a front panel and a rear panel, wherein the front panel comprises a front upper-inner panel portion and a front upper-outer panel portion, and the rear panel comprises a rear upper-inner panel portion, a rear upper-middle panel portion and a rear upper-outer panel portion, wherein within the box the front upper-inner panel portion faces away from a front side of the box, the rear upper-inner panel portion or the rear upper-middle panel portion faces away from a rear side of the box, the one or more consumer goods being housed between the front upper-inner panel portion and the rear upper-inner panel portion or between the front upper-inner panel portion and the rear upper-middle panel portion.
In particular, the corrugated cardboard box of the present invention has two folding means: a) Folding a, wherein the rear upper-inner panel portion faces away from the rear side of the case, the one or more consumer goods being housed between the front upper-inner panel portion and the rear upper-inner panel portion; and B) a folding mode B, wherein the rear upper-middle panel portion faces away from the rear side of the case, and the one or more consumer goods are housed between the front upper-inner panel portion and the rear upper-middle panel portion.
One advantage of the invention is that the built-in cushioning device of the system can achieve good cushioning performance, and particularly provides good cushioning protection for products which are easy to collide and deform.
Another advantage of the present invention is that no additional inserts are required that provide a securing/cushioning effect, which reduces costs, increases operating speed and/or improves recyclability of the system.
Yet another advantage of the present invention is that the special design gives flexibility in use, enabling the same package to be used for different sizes of products by different folding means, reducing the use of filling materials.
Yet another advantage of the present invention is that it provides better compressive strength than conventional corrugated cartons.
These and other features of the present invention will become apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art upon review of the following detailed description when taken in conjunction with the appended claims.
