Abstract

The present invention enclosure a packing box, which is used to package a display panel; the packing box comprises a box, at least one first spacer and at least one second spacer, the step of the first spacer extends from the top to bottom of the box, the step of the second spacer extends from the bottom to top of the box, and each of steps of the first spacer is corresponded to each of steps of the second spacer, in order to crossly stack the display panel; through the above way, the present invention can increase the amount of the display panels packaged in the packing box, saving the packaging costs.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A packing box, which is used to package a plurality of substantially planar display panels, wherein the packing box comprises:
a box, having a first side face and a second side face which is laterally opposite to the first side face for laterally packing the display panels therebetween, each display panel having a first side which has a circuit board thereon and a second side which is opposite to the first side of the display panel;
at least a first spacer removeably fixed to the box, having a first wall abutting against the first side of the box, and a first inclined stepped surface;
at least a second spacer removeably fixed to the box, having a second wall abutting against the second side of the box, and having a second inclined stepped surface arranged substantially in parallel to the first inclined stepped surface of the first spacer;
wherein a plurality of packaging spaces is defined between the first and second inclined stepped surfaces of the first and second spacers in an offset manner in order to laterally pack one of the display panels with its circuit board properly supported in one of the packaging spaces, and the packaged display panels will be stacked relative to each other in an offset manner.

2. The packing box as claimed in claim 1 , further comprises a respective engagement part provided respectively in the first spacer and the second spacer, and engagement cavities provided in the box each for engaging one of the engagement parts, wherein the engagement part can be accommodated in one of the engagement cavities in order to removably fix the first spacer and the second spacer to the box.

3. The packing box as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the engagement part of the first spacer is provided on the side where the respective first spacer abuts against the first side face, and the engagement part of the second spacer is provided on the side where the respective second spacer abuts against the second side face.

4. The packing box as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the engagement part of the first spacer is provided on the bottom of the first spacer and the engagement part of the second spacer is provided on the bottom of the second spacer.

5. The packing box as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the packing box respectively comprises two first spacers, two second spacers, the both of the first spacers are respectively provided on an ends of the first side face, and both of the second spacers are respectively provided on an end of the second side face.

6. The packing box as claimed in claim 5 , wherein when packaging one of the display panels in the box, a distance between both of the first spacers is not shorter than the length of the circuit board of the one of the display panels.

7. The packing box as claimed in claim 1 , wherein when packaging one of the display panels in the box, the width of each stepped surface of the second spacer is longer than the distance between convex components on the circuit board and an outside of the circuit board in the one of the display panels.

8. The packing box as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the packing box further comprises a plurality of pads, and one of the pads is provided between the adjacent display panels and one of the pads is provided between one of the display panels and a bottom of the box.

9. The packing box as claimed in claim 8 , wherein a height of each stepped surface of the first spacer and second spacer is not lower than the sum of the heights of one of the display panels and the pad.

10. A packing box, which is used to package a plurality of substantially planar display panels, wherein the packing box comprises:
a box, having a first side face and a second side face which is laterally opposite to the first side face for laterally packing the display panels therebetween, each display panel having a first side which has a circuit board thereon and a second side which is opposite to the first side of the display panel;
at least a first spacer, having a first wall abutting against the first side of the box, and a first inclined stepped surface;
at least a second spacer, having a second wall abutting against the second side of the box, and having a second inclined stepped surface arranged substantially in parallel to the first inclined stepped surface of the first spacer;
wherein a plurality of packaging spaces is defined between the first and second inclined stepped surfaces of the first and second spacers in an offset manner in order to laterally pack one of the display panels with its circuit board properly supported in one of the packaging spaces, and the packaged display panels will be stacked relative to each other in an offset manner.

11. The packing box as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the first spacer and the second spacer are removably fixed to the box.

12. The packing box as claimed in claim 11 , further comprises a respective engagement part provided respectively in the first spacer and the second spacer, and engagement cavities provided in the box each for engaging one of the engagement parts, wherein each engagement part can be accommodated in one of the engagement cavities in order to removably fix the first spacer and the second spacer to the box.

13. The packing box as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the engagement part of the first spacer is provided on a side where the respective first spacer abuts against the first side face, and the engagement part of the second spacer is provided on the side where the respective second spacer abuts against or the second side face.

14. The packing box as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the engagement part of the first spacer is provided on the bottom of the first spacer and the engagement part of the second spacer is provided on the bottom of the second spacer.

15. The packing box as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the packing box respectively comprises two first spacers, two second spacers, both of the first spacers are respectively provided on an end of the first side face, and both of the second spacers are respectively provided on an end of the second side face.

16. The packing box as claimed in claim 15 , wherein when packaging one of the display panels in the box, a distance between both of the first spacers is not shorter than the length of the circuit board of the one of the display panels.

17. The packing box as claimed in claim 10 , wherein when packaging one of the display panels in the box, the width of each stepped surface of the second spacer is longer than the distance between convex components on the circuit board and an outside of the circuit board in the one of the display panels.

18. The packing box as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the packing box further comprises a plurality of pads, and one of the pads is provided between the adjacent display panels and one of the pads is provided between the one of the display panels and a bottom of the box.

19. The packing box as claimed in claim 18 , wherein a height of each stepped surface of the first spacer and second spacer is not lower than the sum of heights of one display panel and one pad.
