A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11772865B2) describes a packaging cover with a unique corner structure. The packaging cover includes a baseboard with multiple corners and at least one corner structure. The corner structure consists of several regions and fold lines that allow for easy assembly and secure attachment of the cover.

The first region of the corner structure has a slit where one of the corners of the baseboard is inserted. Adjacent to the first region is the second region, which is folded perpendicular to the first region along a first fold line. Similarly, the third region is adjacent to the first region and has a clamping groove. It is folded perpendicular to the first region along a second fold line. The fourth region, located next to the second and third regions, is folded along the second fold line to overlap the third region. The fourth region includes a fixing part that is inserted into the clamping groove. The fourth region also has a main body portion connected to the second region and the fixing part. The main body portion is folded along the second fold line to overlap part of the third region. The fixing part passes through the clamping groove and overlaps with part of the third region and part of the main body portion.

The patent also describes variations of the clamping groove and fixing part. In one embodiment, the clamping groove is a long perforation, and the fixing part is passed through it from the outer surface of the third region. In another embodiment, the clamping groove is U-shaped, and the fixing part is passed through it from the inner surface of the third region. Two sides of the fixing part can pass through two sides of the clamping groove in this configuration. Additionally, the clamping groove may include multiple perforations, with the fixing part passing through the first perforation from the inner surface and then through two second perforations in a direction from the outer surface towards the inner surface.

Overall, this patented packaging cover design offers a secure and efficient way to assemble and attach the cover to a baseboard. The unique corner structure provides stability and strength, ensuring the cover remains in place during transportation and storage.
