Design and application of new buffer body in car audio product packaging

In recent years, economic recovery and environmental protection have become the most concerned issues in the world, and countries have taken active measures to this end. Under this circumstance, enterprises should assume the social responsibility of environmental protection while responding to their operations. As a product design company, the environmentally friendly design begins at the source of product development, and the social benefits that can be generated are invaluable. How to reduce resource consumption, reduce waste emissions, cut costs and improve quality has become the basic concept of product design. In this context, this technology came into being.

Prior to this, we, like many companies in the industry, used the cushioning materials used in the packaging from the original foam (PP/PE) to the current paper template, both of which can meet the packaging requirements. In the process of practical application, there have been many problems that cannot be ignored, which have adverse effects on production, transportation, service and environmental protection. First, when packaging with a foaming material, the amount of material used is large, the volume of the cushioning material is large, and resources are excessively consumed, and the freight and material costs are also increased. Secondly, the packing body needs to be assembled again after the packing operation, which increases the working hours of the packaging. Thirdly, in terms of the drop characteristics, the above method cannot realize the buffer packaging in all directions, and when the drop and the severe vibration occur during the handling process, It is easy to cause damage to the product.

Then, can there be a packaging method to make up for the shortcomings of traditional packaging? The artisan design department of the Dalian R&D Center of Alpine Electronics (China) Co., Ltd. regards this as the key topic of the enterprise CSR, and sets up a project team to specifically respond. To solve this problem, the designers made a bold idea and finally determined the design direction of using air as a packaging buffer. This inspiration comes from the way in which ordinary electronic components are packaged. This method has not been widely used in the packaging of car audio products because the air in the buffer bag is heated to expand and compress the soft and brittle parts of the product. Causes damage to the product. For automotive products, the quality requirements are very demanding, and the existence of such fatal flaws makes it impossible to become the main packaging method for car audio complete machines.

In order to break through the technical bottleneck, the designers cooperated with the material manufacturers to simulate the use situation in various environments, and constantly revised the design ideas in the failures. Finally, the delicate structural design was adopted, and after several months of difficulties, the expected results were achieved.

Another highlight of the design is the reduction of the number of materials and packaging. The solution is to use a segmented integrated design of the buffer bag. Before inflating, the bag is similar to a general plastic bag, which can be stored and transported in large quantities, significantly reducing the area of ​​the packaging station and storage place. After being inflated, the bag can provide cushioning in all directions according to the shape of the package, and the packaging process can be completed quickly.

The effects of this design are concentrated in the following five aspects:

1. Improve the anti-drop performance and further ensure the safety of the products during storage and transportation.

2. Solved the problem of damage caused by extrusion of the product due to gas expansion.

3. Reduce the amount of buffer material used in the whole machine, reduce the volume of the buffer material, and reduce resource consumption.

4. Simplify the packaging process, reduce the number of jobs, and improve packaging efficiency.

5. Most of the packaging bags use PET materials that can be naturally pulped, which greatly reduces environmental pollution when disposed of.

This design is compared with the traditional way of foam and cardboard as cushioning material, in practical application (taking our car audio packaging as an example): 80% drop characteristic G value is reduced by 38%; cushioning material weight is reduced by 76%; cushioning material cost Cut by 28%; 50% reduction in packaging operation time and working hours. According to the data, the indicators are much better than the traditional packaging methods, with high promotion value and broad market prospects.

This technology has been applied in the car audio products of the company for foreign markets. However, it is only used by a company in Alpine that it cannot exert a huge social effect.

"Enterprise is the public instrument of the society", Alpine people also strongly agree, with a strong sense of mission, to vigorously promote this new packaging method to all sectors of society, in order to obtain universal recognition and extensive use, expectation Gradually become the mainstream way of packaging various products. Gather the power of all the people to jointly fulfill the corporate responsibility of contributing to society.
