The packaging buffer structure 200 includes a foaming material frame 210, a plurality of fitting members 220, and a limiting member 230. The fitting member 220 is fitted to the foaming material frame 210, and the limiting member 230 is fitted on the foaming material frame 210 and the fitting member 220. The hardness of the fitting member 220 and the hardness of the limiting member 230 are both greater than the hardness of the foaming material frame 210. The main purpose of the foaming material frame 210 is to buffer and protect the liquid crystal panel 100. However, the foaming material has the disadvantages that the precision control is difficult and the deformation is relatively easy. Therefore, the harder limiting member 230 and the fitting member 220 are required to assist in positioning and avoiding. The liquid crystal glass 110 is slipped. The material of the fitting member 220 may be a thermosetting plastic, such as: Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene (ABS) or polyoxymethylene (POM); For thermoplastics, such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET), it is not limited to this, and appropriate materials can be selected according to actual needs.
其中發泡材料框體210可為中空結構，限位元件230為套裝於發泡材料框體210之承載盤，可供多個液晶面板100疊置於其上。承載盤可包含有多個支撐肋232，支撐肋232彼此平行排列，用以增強承載盤的支撐強度。發泡材料框體210上可具有多個凹槽212，限位元件230上具有多個凸肋234，凸肋234可以與凹槽212卡合，以定位限位元件230於發泡材料框體210上。The foaming material frame 210 can be a hollow structure, and the limiting component 230 is a carrier disk that is disposed on the foaming material frame 210, and the plurality of liquid crystal panels 100 can be stacked thereon. The carrier tray may include a plurality of support ribs 232 that are arranged in parallel with each other to enhance the support strength of the carrier tray. The foaming material frame 210 can have a plurality of grooves 212. The limiting member 230 has a plurality of ribs 234 thereon. The ribs 234 can be engaged with the grooves 212 to position the limiting member 230 on the foaming material frame. 210 on.
同時參照第2B圖及第2C圖，其係分別繪示本發明之包裝緩衝結構第一實施例組裝前後的示意圖。包裝緩衝結構200可用以包裝多個液晶面板100，液晶面板100之間可以透過多個緩衝墊150隔離，用以提供保護與緩衝作用，其中液晶面板100與緩衝墊150為交錯地疊置在限位元件230上。Referring to FIG. 2B and FIG. 2C, respectively, a schematic view of the first embodiment of the packaging buffer structure of the present invention before and after assembly is shown. The packaging buffer structure 200 can be used to package a plurality of liquid crystal panels 100. The liquid crystal panels 100 can be separated by a plurality of cushions 150 for providing protection and buffering. The liquid crystal panel 100 and the cushion 150 are alternately stacked. Bit element 230.
嵌合件220的一端(即接觸臂222)伸入液晶玻璃110與電路基板120之間以定位液晶面板100。嵌合件220另一端(即固定部224)為嵌合於發泡材料框體210。嵌合件220更可包含有頸部226以連接固定部224與接觸臂222，其中頸部226之寬度為小於固定部224之寬度。One end of the fitting 220 (ie, the contact arm 222) extends between the liquid crystal glass 110 and the circuit substrate 120 to position the liquid crystal panel 100. The other end of the fitting 220 (i.e., the fixing portion 224) is fitted to the foamed material casing 210. The fitting member 220 further includes a neck portion 226 for connecting the fixing portion 224 and the contact arm 222, wherein the width of the neck portion 226 is smaller than the width of the fixing portion 224.
發泡材料框體210可具有嵌合孔215以及挾持部217。嵌合件220之固定部224可與嵌合孔215卡合，挾持部217則可夾住頸部226防止固定部224滑出嵌合孔215。接觸臂222可伸入液晶玻璃與電路基板之間。限位元件230可具有對應於接觸臂222之凸緣235。當限位元件230套接於發泡材料框體210與嵌合件220時，接觸臂222容置在凸緣235之中。The foamed material frame 210 may have a fitting hole 215 and a grip portion 217. The fixing portion 224 of the fitting 220 can be engaged with the fitting hole 215, and the clamping portion 217 can clamp the neck portion 226 to prevent the fixing portion 224 from sliding out of the fitting hole 215. The contact arm 222 can extend between the liquid crystal glass and the circuit substrate. The stop element 230 can have a flange 235 that corresponds to the contact arm 222. When the limiting member 230 is sleeved on the foaming material frame 210 and the fitting member 220, the contact arm 222 is received in the flange 235.
發泡材料框體210更包含有多個第一定位孔214，限位元件230上包含有多個第二定位孔236。第二定位孔236為對應於第一定位孔214設置，以在套接限位元件230於發泡材料框體210上時，使第一定位孔214與第二定位孔236卡合。The foaming material frame 210 further includes a plurality of first positioning holes 214, and the limiting element 230 includes a plurality of second positioning holes 236. The second positioning hole 236 is disposed corresponding to the first positioning hole 214 to engage the first positioning hole 214 and the second positioning hole 236 when the limiting member 230 is sleeved on the foaming material frame 210.
由於發泡材料框體210之材料具有製程精度控制不易的缺點，因此，在進行自動化製程時，若是直接以發泡材料框體210上的第一定位孔214作為定位基準，容易因定位不精確而導致液晶面板100在搬運過程中因碰撞而受損。因此，本發明藉由成型精確度較高之的限位元件230上的第二定位孔236作為自動化製程中的定位基準。舉例而言，機台之定位柱可以伸入第二定位孔236之中，以定位柱之連線作為定位時的參考基準，以方便機械手臂進行抓取等動作。Since the material of the foaming material frame 210 has the disadvantage that the process precision control is not easy, when the automatic positioning process is performed, if the first positioning hole 214 on the foaming material frame 210 is directly used as the positioning reference, the positioning is not accurate. As a result, the liquid crystal panel 100 is damaged by the collision during transportation. Therefore, the present invention is used as a positioning reference in an automated process by the second positioning hole 236 on the limiting member 230 having a higher molding accuracy. For example, the positioning post of the machine can extend into the second positioning hole 236 to position the connecting line of the column as a reference for positioning, so as to facilitate the grasping action of the robot arm.
液晶面板100放置於發泡材料框體210之中，由於發泡材料框體210製程公差較大，故在細微處容易有成形失敗的問題產生，本發明進一步透過硬度較大之嵌合件220支撐及定位液晶玻璃110。嵌合件220由於硬度較大，不會有成形失敗的問題，其中嵌合件220之固定部224與發泡材料框體210嵌合，接觸臂222則是伸入電路基板120與液晶玻璃110之間，以支撐及定位液晶玻璃110，避免液晶玻璃110滑動而使軟性印刷電路板130受損。The liquid crystal panel 100 is placed in the foamed material casing 210. Since the process tolerance of the foamed material casing 210 is large, the problem of forming failure is likely to occur in the fine portion, and the present invention further transmits the fitting member 220 having a relatively high hardness. Support and position the liquid crystal glass 110. The fitting member 220 has a large hardness and does not have a problem of forming failure. The fixing portion 224 of the fitting member 220 is fitted into the foaming material frame 210, and the contact arm 222 extends into the circuit substrate 120 and the liquid crystal glass 110. In between, to support and position the liquid crystal glass 110, the liquid crystal glass 110 is prevented from sliding to damage the flexible printed circuit board 130.
發泡材料框體210上更在角落處佈置有多個逃角211，以讓出空間容納液晶玻璃110的角，避免液晶玻璃110的角因搬運時的摩擦或碰撞而受損。發泡材料框體210更包含有多個擋塊213，擋塊213與液晶玻璃110的側表面接觸，以定位液晶玻璃110。A plurality of escape angles 211 are further disposed on the foamed material frame 210 at the corners to allow the space to accommodate the corners of the liquid crystal glass 110, thereby preventing the corners of the liquid crystal glass 110 from being damaged by friction or collision during handling. The foamed material frame 210 further includes a plurality of stoppers 213 that are in contact with the side surfaces of the liquid crystal glass 110 to position the liquid crystal glass 110.
參照第3A圖，其係繪示應用本發明之包裝緩衝結構之第一實施例的包裝模組的立體視圖。多個包裝緩衝結構200可以直接相互疊置成為包裝模組300，省略了過去需使用紙箱及襯墊等包裝結構，有效減少空間及提升搬運效率。Referring to Fig. 3A, there is shown a perspective view of a packaging module of a first embodiment of a package cushioning structure to which the present invention is applied. The plurality of packaging buffer structures 200 can be directly stacked on each other to form the packaging module 300, and the packaging structure such as a carton and a liner is used in the past, thereby effectively reducing space and improving handling efficiency.
參照第3B圖，其係繪示應用本發明之包裝緩衝結構之第一實施例的包裝模組的示意圖。限位元件230之凸肋234可耦合於發泡材料框體210的凹槽212上。緩衝墊150與液晶面板100可為交錯地疊置在承載盤之限位元件230上。藉由凸肋234卡合於凹槽212，可以有效避免限位元件230的兩端因液晶面板100與緩衝墊150的重量而被翻起，以固定限位元件230。Referring to Fig. 3B, there is shown a schematic view of a packaging module of a first embodiment of a package cushioning structure to which the present invention is applied. The rib 234 of the stop member 230 can be coupled to the groove 212 of the foamed material frame 210. The cushion 150 and the liquid crystal panel 100 may be alternately stacked on the limiting member 230 of the carrier. By engaging the rib 234 in the recess 212, it is possible to effectively prevent both ends of the limiting member 230 from being turned up due to the weight of the liquid crystal panel 100 and the cushion 150 to fix the limiting member 230.
當多組包裝緩衝結構200疊置時，每一個限位元件230之承載盤的底面與其下方之另一個承載盤上所承載之多個液晶面板100中之最上方的液晶面板100，二者之間保持有一間距d。換言之，每一組包裝緩衝結構200中所包裝的多個液晶面板100與緩衝墊150是疊置在限位元件230(承載盤)上，而限位元件230為透過凹槽212與凸肋234的卡合固定而懸吊於發泡材料框體210之中。When the plurality of sets of the package buffer structures 200 are stacked, the bottom surface of the carrier tray of each of the limiting elements 230 and the uppermost liquid crystal panel 100 of the plurality of liquid crystal panels 100 carried on the other of the carrier trays, There is a spacing d between them. In other words, the plurality of liquid crystal panels 100 and the cushion 150 packaged in each of the package buffer structures 200 are stacked on the limiting member 230 (the carrier tray), and the limiting member 230 is the through groove 212 and the rib 234. The snap fit is suspended and suspended in the foamed material frame 210.
如此一來，藉由將液晶面板100懸吊於包裝緩衝結構200中的概念，每一組包裝緩衝結構200中所承載之液晶面板100與緩衝墊150的重量不會直接傳遞到其下方之包裝緩衝結構200中的液晶面板100，減少液晶面板100因承重過重而破片的可能。As a result, by the concept of suspending the liquid crystal panel 100 in the packaging buffer structure 200, the weight of the liquid crystal panel 100 and the cushion 150 carried in each group of the packaging buffer structure 200 is not directly transmitted to the package below it. The liquid crystal panel 100 in the buffer structure 200 reduces the possibility that the liquid crystal panel 100 may be fragmented due to excessive weight bearing.
包裝模組300中更包含有保護蓋240，保護蓋240可以與最上方之包裝緩衝結構200的發泡材料框體210卡合，以方便綁帶繞過包裝模組300以固定包裝模組300。除此之外，保護蓋240更可作為防塵蓋，以避免在搬運的的過程中微粒掉落在液晶面板100上造成污染。保護蓋240之材料可為發泡材料或其他適當材質。The packaging module 300 further includes a protective cover 240. The protective cover 240 can be engaged with the foaming material frame 210 of the uppermost packaging buffer structure 200 to facilitate the strap to bypass the packaging module 300 to fix the packaging module 300. . In addition, the protective cover 240 can be used as a dustproof cover to prevent particles from falling on the liquid crystal panel 100 during transportation to cause contamination. The material of the protective cover 240 may be a foamed material or other suitable material.

The hardness of the fitting member 420 and the hardness of the limiting member 430 are both greater than the hardness of the foamed material frame 410. A plurality of liquid crystal panels may be stacked on the bottom surface 411.
發泡材料框體410可具有嵌合孔414以及挾持部416。嵌合件420可包含有固定部424、接觸臂422，以及連接固定部424與接觸臂422之頸部426。固定部424與嵌合孔414卡合，挾持部416則夾住頸部426防止固定部424滑出嵌合孔414。接觸臂422則是伸入液晶玻璃與電路基板之間。限位元件430則具有對應於接觸臂422之凸緣434。當限位元件430套接於固定凸塊415與嵌合件420時，接觸臂422容置在凸緣434之中。凸緣434被接觸臂422支撐而與液晶玻璃接觸，以固定液晶玻璃110。The foamed material frame 410 may have a fitting hole 414 and a grip portion 416.

The second positioning hole 432 is disposed corresponding to the first positioning hole 418 to engage the first positioning hole 418 and the second positioning hole 432 when the limiting member 430 is fixed on the fixing protrusion 415.
由於發泡材料框體410之材料具有製程精度控制不易的缺點，因此，在進行自動化製程時，若是直接以發泡材料框體410上的第一定位孔418作為定位基準，容易因定位不精確而導致液晶面板100(見第1圖)在搬運過程中因碰撞而受損。因此，本發明藉由成型精確度較高之限位元件430上的第二定位孔432作為自動化製程中的定位基準。舉例而言，機台之定位柱可以伸入第二定位孔432之中，以定位柱之連線作為定位時的參考基準，以方便機械手臂進行抓取等動作。Since the material of the foaming material frame 410 has the disadvantage that the process precision control is not easy, when the automatic positioning process is performed, if the first positioning hole 418 on the foaming material frame 410 is directly used as the positioning reference, the positioning is not accurate. As a result, the liquid crystal panel 100 (see Fig. 1) is damaged by the collision during transportation. Therefore, the present invention is used as a positioning reference in an automated process by the second positioning hole 432 on the positioning member 430 having a higher molding accuracy. For example, the positioning post of the machine can extend into the second positioning hole 432, and the connecting line of the positioning column can be used as a reference for positioning, so as to facilitate the grasping action of the robot arm.
