Box for packaging an object
View Patent ↗According to the invention, the box for packaging an object, comprising at least two upper edges, comprising: lateral walls, a delimiting bottom, with the lateral walls, an internal volume able to receive said object, and a moving cover in relation to at least one of said lateral walls, so as to be able to occupy at least one closed position and one open position, in which said receiving volume is respectively closed and open, characterized by the fact that the cover comprises, on its internal face oriented toward the receiving volume, at least two main flaps that are arranged opposite each other and that are designed to be applied respectively against the upper edges of said object, when the cover occupies the closed position.
1. A box, comprising:
lateral walls having a dimension;
a bottom panel connected to and defining, with the lateral walls, an internal volume able to receive an object; and
a movable panel connected in relation to one of the lateral walls, so as to be able to occupy at least one closed position and one open position, in which the internal volume is respectively closed and open;
wherein the movable panel comprises, on an internal face oriented towards the internal volume, at least two main flaps that: (i) are arranged opposite to each other and are formed by a longitudinal extension of the moveable panel, and (ii) are applied against edges of the object;
wherein the box comprises two internal lateral walls arranged opposite to each other to define a housing able to receive the object with adjustment, each of the internal lateral walls being extended longitudinally at each end by two auxiliary damping flaps able to press against one of the internal lateral walls of the box;
wherein the bottom panel comprises at least two additional damping flaps on which the object can rest; and
wherein each of the auxiliary damping flaps has a notch configured to receive one of the additional damping flaps.
2. The box according to claim 1 , wherein the main flaps each comprise an inclined face oriented towards an inside of the internal volume, and each of the inclined faces contacts a corresponding protruding edge of the object in the closed position of the moveable panel.
3. The box according to claim 2 , wherein each longitudinal extension of the moveable panel is folded along two separate folding axes, so as to define the inclined face.
4. The box according to claim 2 , wherein an inner end of each of the main flaps is free.
5. The box according to claim 1 , wherein each of the main flaps comprises an orthogonal face to the moveable panel which is defined between two associated folding axes and which engages one of the lateral walls of the box when the moveable panel is in the closed position.
6. The box according to claim 1 , wherein the main flaps are formed from a flexible material.
7. The box according to claim 6 , wherein the flexible material is cardboard.
8. A method, comprising:
providing a box having an internal volume able to receive an object, wherein the box comprises:
lateral walls having a dimension;
a bottom panel connected to and defining, with the lateral walls, the internal volume; and
a movable panel connected in relation to one of the lateral walls, so as to be able to occupy at least one closed position and one open position, in which the internal volume is respectively closed and open;
wherein the movable panel comprises, on an internal face oriented towards the internal volume, at least two main flaps that: (i) are arranged opposite to each other and are formed by a longitudinal extension of the moveable panel, and (ii) are applied against edges of the object;
wherein the box comprises two internal lateral walls arranged opposite to each other to define a housing able to receive the object with adjustment, each of the internal lateral walls being extended longitudinally at each end by two auxiliary damping flaps able to press against one of the internal lateral walls of the box;
wherein the bottom panel comprises at least two additional damping flaps on which the object can rest; and
wherein each of the auxiliary damping flaps has a notch configured to receive one of the additional damping flaps.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the main flaps each comprise an inclined face oriented towards an inside of the internal volume, and each of the inclined faces contacts a corresponding protruding edge of the object in the closed position of the moveable panel.
10. The method of claim 9 , wherein each longitudinal extension of the moveable panel is folded along two separate folding axes, so as to define the inclined face.
11. The method of claim 9 , wherein an inner end of each of the main flaps is free.
12. The method of claim 9 , wherein each of the main flaps comprises an orthogonal face to the moveable panel which is defined between two associated folding axes and which engages one of the lateral walls of the box when the moveable panel is in the closed position.
13. The method of claim 8 , wherein the main flaps are formed from a flexible material.
14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the flexible material is cardboard.
