Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the field of packing, and more particularly relates to a packing device of liquid crystal (LC) glass.


BACKGROUND

Typical liquid crystal display (LCD) devices employ various glass substrates. As a brittle material, glass is easily broken and then scrapped when being knocked or shaken by outside force. Even the friction between glass substrates possibly causes the glass substrates to be worn out or circuits on the glass substrates to be damaged. Thus, how to safely and effectively transport LC glass becomes a crucial issue.


In the prior art, a frequently-used packing mode is that: a plurality of pieces of LC glass are stacked and then put into a packing box, and buffer sheets are also arranged among the LC glass. The packing box is generally made of expanded polypropylene (EPP), expanded polyethylene (EPE), expanded polystyrene (EPS), etc. which have the advantages of better buffer performance, certain hardness, and no drop of powdered scraps without worrying about that the environment of a dust-free room is affected. However, the expanded materials are expensive, which doesn't favor the reduction of packing cost.


Another frequently-used packing mode is that: the LC glass is put into trays. The trays are molded by plastic sheets through suction molding and have the functions of buffer and support. Each tray can accommodate a plurality of pieces of LC glass. Then, a plurality of trays are up and down stacked. Finally, the LC glass is put into a packing bag and an outer case. The trays molded by the suction molding mode have high cleanliness, precise size and excellent antistatic effect, but the trays are molded by the plastic sheets through vacuum absorption with low strength and easy deformation under stress. Because LC glass is horizontally put in the prior art, after the LC glass is carried, a sunken phenomenon often occurs under the influence of the gravity of the LC glass. Especially, when packing personnel support the trays and lift the whole packing bag, the trays are obviously deformed. Thus, the packing quantity of each box of LC glass is limited, otherwise, it is easy to crush the LC glass.


SUMMARY

In view of the above-described problems, the aim of the present disclosure is to provide a packing device of liquid crystal (LC) glass capable of vertically accommodating LC glass.


The technical scheme of the present disclosure is that: a packing device of LC glass comprises a tray, a containing cavity for containing the LC glass is arranged in the tray, the packing device further comprises an upper cover which is fixed to the tray by a clamp, the upper cover and the tray are respectively and correspondingly configured with a clamping button or a clamping slot, outer edges of the upper cover and the tray are both configured with fixed edges. The clamping button and the clamping slot are arranged on the fixed edges of the upper cover and the tray, the clamping button and the clamping slot are arranged on four corners of the upper cover and the tray and the middle regions of the fixed edges, the fixed edges of the upper cover and the tray are also configured with a handle. The upper cover and the tray are molded by plastic sheets through a suction molding mode, the upper cover and the tray are made of the same plastic sheet. A connecting structure is arranged between an upper cover and a tray, the upper cover and the tray are clamped after being relatively turned, the packing device also comprises a buffer sheet which is arranged between two adjacent pieces of LC glass, and the packing device also comprises an outer case and a buffer element. The buffer element comprises an upper buffer element and a lower buffer element, the upper buffer element and the lower buffer element are both configured with a plurality of fixing cavities for fixing the upper cover and the tray. Each fixing cavity can be used for fixing a combination of the upper cover and the tray, each buffer element is only configured with one fixing cavity, the fixing cavity on the buffer element is an open structure and forms an integral fixing cavity with an adjacent buffer element. The buffer element is configured with a slot and an insert block, the slot and the insert block are respectively arranged on two side surfaces of the buffer element and are respectively used for connecting two buffer elements adjacent to the buffer element.

In one example, the upper cover and the tray are made of the same plastic sheet. A connecting structure is arranged between the upper cover and the tray. The upper cover and the tray are clamped after being relatively turned.


In one example, the packing device of the LC glass also comprises a buffer sheet. The buffer sheet is arranged between two adjacent pieces of LC glass and used for separating the LC glass for avoiding generating friction between two adjacent pieces of LC glass.

Thus, the LC glass 6 in the containing cavity 11 is fixed, the packing device can be vertically put and can also be horizontally arranged. Thus, the problem of stress deformation caused by up and down stacking is well solved.


In the example, the upper cover 2 and the tray 1 are respectively and correspondingly configured with a clamping button 12 or a clamping slot 21, because the clamping button 12 and the clamping slot 21 are used in pairs, the clamping button 12 can achieve the purpose of detachable connection whether the clamping button 12 is arranged on the upper cover 2 or the tray 1. Outer edges of the upper cover 2 and the tray 1 are configured with fixed edges 13, 22, the clamping button 12 and the clamping slot 21 are arranged on the fixed edges 13, 22 of the upper cover and the tray. Because the fixed edges are planes, it is convenient to mold the clamping button and the clamping slot and for operators to clamp and connect the clamping button and the clamping slot with force. The clamping button 12 and the clamping slot 21 are arranged on four corners of the upper cover 2 and the tray 1 and middle regions of the fixed edges. Thus, the circumferences of the upper cover 2 and the tray 1 are fixedly connected, the upper cover 2 and the tray 1 are reliably connected so as to effectively avoid disconnecting the upper cover 2 and the tray 1.


In the example, the fixed edges 13, 22 of the upper cover and the tray are also configured with a handle convenient for taking; thus, it is especially suitable for packing a small quantity of samples.


In the example, the upper cover 2 and the tray 1 are molded by plastic sheets through a suction molding mode, the upper cover 2 and the tray 1 molded in the suction molding mode have high cleanliness, precise size, and excellent antistatic effect. Because the upper cover 2 and the tray 1 are vertically put and are not pressed, it is not easy to damage the LC glass 6.


In the example, the packing device of the LC glass also comprises a buffer sheet 5. The buffer sheet 5 is arranged between two adjacent pieces of LC glass and used for separating the LC glass for avoiding generating friction between two adjacent pieces of LC glass.
