Then, the first inner layers 122b, 123b rotatably connected to the first outer layer 122a, 123a are folded towards the inner surface 127a of the first outer layers 122a, 123a, such that the second side plate 122 wraps the second wing plate 124 through the first outer layer 122a and the first inner layer 122b, and the second side plate 123 wraps the second wing plate 124 through the first outer layer 123a and the first inner layer 123b. Then, the leaning plates 122c, 123c are respectively folded towards the inner surface 127a of the first inner layers 122b, 123b, while the first inner layers 122b, 123b are respectively moved closer to the first outer layers 122a, 123a, such that the leaning plates 122c, 123c are flatly attached to the inner surface 10a of the bottom plate 10, in this case, the two second side plates 122, 123 respectively and stably stand on two opposite sides of the top plate 20.


It should be noted that in the present embodiment, the first inner layer 121b of the second side plate 121 further includes two slits 125a extended from the notch 125, and the part of the first inner layer 121b located between the two slits 125a is adapted to be folded to serve as a second tongue piece 126, and a length L31 of the two slits 125a in the first direction D1 is equal to the length L11 of the first tongue piece 116 in the first direction D1, though the invention is not limited thereto.


Then, the first inner layer 121b rotatably connected to the first outer layer 121a is folded towards the inner surface 127a of the first outer layer 121a, and the leaning plate 121c is folded towards the inner surface 127a of the first inner layer 121b, while the first inner layer 121b is moved closer to the first outer layer 121a, such that the leaning plate 121c is flatly attached to the inner surface 20a of the top plate 20, in this case, the second side plate 121 may stably stand on one side of the top plate 20. At this point, assembling of the box body 110 and the cover body 120 of the packing box 100 is completed. It should be noted that during the process of assembling the packing box 100 of the embodiment, no adhesion is required, so that a production flow is simplified and manufacturing cost is saved.



FIG. 3 is a three-dimensional view of the packing box of FIG. 2A when the cover body is closed to the box body. Referring to FIG. 2A and FIG. 3, when the top plate 20 of the cover body 120 is flipped towards the inner surface 10a of the bottom plate 10 of the box body 110 to contact one side of each of the first side plates 111, 112, 113 located away from the bottom plate 10, the second side plates 121, 122, 123 of the cover body 120 respectively contact the second outer layers 111a, 112a, 113a of the first side plates 111, 112, 113 of the box body 110 through the first inner layers 121b, 122b, 123b. In this case, the packing box 100 presents a close state shown in FIG. 3.



FIG. 4A to FIG. 4D are cross-sectional views of a closing process of the cover body of the packing box of FIG. 2A along a section line A-A′. Referring to FIG. 4A to FIG. 4D, during the process or closing the cover body 120 to the box body 110, the first tongue piece 116 of the first side plate 111 is pushed by the first inner layer 121b of the second side plate 121, and the free end 116b of the first tongue piece 116 is gradually approached to the outer surface 117b of the first side plate 111 until the free end 116b of the first tongue piece 116 moves into the notch 125 and is rebounded back to the inner surface 127a of the first outer layer 121a of the second side plate 121 to make a sound. It should be noted that in the present embodiment, the first inner layer 121b of the second side plate 121 has the second tongue piece 126 upwarped towards the inner surface 127a of the first inner layer 121b. Therefore, during the process of closing the cover body to the box body 110, compared to the situation that the first tongue piece 116 is pushed by the planar first inner layer 121b of the second side plate 121, the first tongue piece 116 pushed by the upwarped second tongue piece 126 of the first inner layer 121b makes the free end 116b of the first tongue piece 116 to be more closer to the outer surface 117b of the first side plate 111, such that when the free end 116b of the first tongue piece 116 moves into the notch 125, the freed end 116b may strike the inner surface 127a of the first outer layer 121a of the second side plate 121 from a position P1 in a larger rebound force to make a larger sound.



FIG. 5A to FIG. 5F are cross-sectional views of an opening process of the cover body of the packing box of FIG. 2A along a section line A-A′. Referring to FIG. 5A and FIG. 5B, in a first phase that the cover body 120 of the packing box 100 is lifted up from the box body 110, the free end 116b of the first tongue piece 116 of the first side plate 111 moves into the space between the second tongue piece 126 and the first outer layer 121a, and the first tongue piece 116 contacts and interferes with the second tongue piece 126. Referring to FIG. 5C to FIG. 5F, in a second phase that the cover body 120 of the packing box 100 is lifted up from the box body 110, the second tongue piece 126 is folded in a direction away from the first outer layer 121a, and drives the free end 116b of the first tongue piece 116 to rotate in a direction away from the outer surface 117b of the first side plate 111 until leaving a moving path of the second tongue piece, so as to release the interference on the second tongue piece 126. Referring to FIG. 5D and FIG. 5E, it should be noted that when the first tongue piece 116 releases the interference on the second tongue piece 126, the first tongue piece 116 rotates in a direction from a position P2 towards the outer surface 117b of the first side plate 111 and strikes the inner surface 127a of the first inner layer 121b of the second side plate 121 in a rebound force to produce a sound. Therefore, a user may learn that the cover body 120 of the packing box 100 is separated from the box body 110 through the produced sound.


It should be noted that in the embodiment, if the box body 110 of the packing box 100 is not filled with goods or is not configured with the inner separation member 200 (referring to FIG. 2B), during the process of lifting the cover body 120 from the box body 110, even if the first inner layer 121b is not configured with the second tongue piece 126, the first side plate 111 having the first tongue piece 116 may be slightly deformed inward to release the interference between the first tongue piece 116 and the first inner layer 121b, so as to smoothly lift the cover body 120.


Moreover, although in the second phase that the cover body 120 of the packing box 100 is lifted up from the box body 110, a flipping angle the first tongue piece 116 is larger than that of the second tongue piece 126, in other embodiments, the flipping angle of the second tongue piece 126 may be greater than that of the first tongue piece 116. In the embodiment that the flipping angle of the second tongue piece 126 is greater than that of the first tongue piece 116, when the inner separation member 200 (shown in FIG. 2B) is disposed in the box body 110 of the packing box 100, the inner separation member 200 may lean against the first side plate 111 having the first tongue piece 116. The inner side of the first side plate 111 is not easy to be deflected inward (deformed towards the accommodation space 12) due to support of the inner separation member 200. Therefore, during the process of lifting up the cover body 120 from the box body 110, the second tongue piece 126 may have a large angle folding to leave the moving path of the first tongue piece 116, so that the cover body 120 may be smoothly lifted up.


In summary, in the packing box of the embodiment of the invention, the first side plate of the box body is configured with the first tongue piece, the second side plate of the cover body has the inner layer and the outer layer stacked with each other, and the inner layer is configured with the notch corresponding to the first tongue piece. During the process of closing the cover body to the box body, the first tongue piece is first pushed by the inner layer and slightly deformed, and is then moved into the notch of the inner layer and rebounded back, such that the free end strikes the part of the outer layer of the second side plate of the cover body corresponding to the notch. Since the first tongue piece is first pushed and deformed and is then rebounded back, when the first tongue piece of the box body is rebounded back to strike the cover body, a loud sound is produced, such that the user learns that the cover body has completed closing. The above sound made by the first tongue piece is similar to a sound produced by a buckling member when it is buckled. Namely, the packing box of the embodiments of the invention is unnecessary to install a buckling member but still has the quality similar to the existing packing box using the buckling member. Moreover, the second tongue piece is selectively configured beside the notch of the first inner layer, and during the process of closing the cover body to the box body, the free end of the first tongue piece pushed by the upwarped second tongue piece may be more deformed, such that when the first tongue piece enters the notch of the inner layer, the first tongue piece may strike the cover body in a larger rebound force to make a louder sound, and/or during the process of lifting up the cover body from the box body, second tongue piece disposed beside the notch of the first inner layer may be flipped in large angle to facilitate retreat of the first tongue piece. It should be noted that during the manufacturing process, no adhesion is required or configuration of extra buckling member is unnecessary, so that effects of simplifying a production process and reducing manufacturing cost are achieved.


It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made to the structure of the invention without departing from the scope or spirit of the invention. In view of the foregoing, it is intended that the invention cover modifications and variations of this invention provided they fall within the scope of the following claims and their equivalents.
