Abstract

The present invention relates a package assembly comprising: a support unit which can seat any one of a first cabinet and a second cabinet on the other one of the first cabinet and the second cabinet to carry the first cabinet and the second cabinet as one set.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A packaging assembly comprising:
 a support part configured to seat one of the first cabinet and a second cabinet on top of the other one of the first cabinet and the second cabinet first cabinet and the second cabinet on top of the other one of the first cabinet and the second cabinet to transport the first cabinet and the second cabinet as one set.   
     
     
         2 . The packaging assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the support part comprises a support frame configured to accommodate the first cabinet therein and support the second cabinet placed thereon. 
     
     
         3 . The packaging assembly of  claim 2 , wherein the support frame comprises:
 an upper frame spaced apart from each corner of a top surface of the first cabinet; and   a plurality of side frames extending downward from each vertex of the upper frame.   
     
     
         4 . The packaging assembly of  claim 3 , further comprising:
 an upper shock absorption member detachably provided to a corner of a top surface of the first cabinet to support the upper frame; and   a side shock absorption member detachably provided to side corners of the first cabinet to contact the side frames.   
     
     
         5 . The packaging assembly of  claim 4 , further comprising:
 a lower shock absorption member detachably arranged on a bottom surface of the first cabinet to support the first cabinet and the side shock absorption member.   
     
     
         6 . The packaging assembly of  claim 5 , wherein the upper shock absorption member is provided with an upper groove at a corner of the upper shock absorption member, the upper groove accommodating at least one of the upper frame and the side frame. 
     
     
         7 . The packaging assembly of  claim 6 , wherein the upper groove comprises:
 a first groove defined by one stepped corner of the upper shock absorption member to accommodate the upper frame; and   a second groove defined by a stepped corner adjacent to opposite ends of the one corner to accommodate the side frame.   
     
     
         8 . The packaging assembly of  claim 4 , wherein the side shock absorption member comprises:
 a side groove defined by a stepped corner of the side shock absorption member positioned farthest from the first cabinet, the side groove accommodating the side frame.   
     
     
         9 . The packaging assembly of  claim 5 , wherein the side frame extends from the upper frame to a lower end of the lower shock absorption member,
 wherein the lower shock absorption member comprises a lower groove formed at each vertex thereof to accommodate the side frame.   
     
     
         10 . The packaging assembly of  claim 9 , wherein the lower shock absorption member comprises an accommodation groove formed in a top surface thereof to accommodate a lower portion of the first cabinet. 
     
     
         11 . The packaging assembly of  claim 10 , further comprising:
 a lower accommodation part configured to accommodate a lower portion of the lower shock absorption member and fix lower ends of the plurality of side frames.   
     
     
         12 . The packaging assembly of  claim 11 , wherein the lower accommodation part is formed of a material having high brittleness. 
     
     
         13 . The packaging assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the first cabinet comprises a first clothes accommodation part configured to accommodate clothes therein,
 wherein the support part comprises a fixing part arranged on the second cabinet to support the first clothes accommodation part.   
     
     
         14 . The packaging assembly of  claim 13 , wherein the second cabinet comprises a second clothes accommodation part configured to accommodate clothes therein,
 wherein the fixing part is supported by the second clothes accommodation part to support the first clothes accommodation part.   
     
     
         15 . The packaging assembly of  claim 14 , wherein the fixing part is supported by the second clothes accommodation part and arranged through a top surface of the second cabinet and a bottom surface of the first cabinet to support the first clothes accommodation part. 
     
     
         16 . The packaging assembly of  claim 15 , wherein the fixing part comprises:
 a closing fixing part arranged on an top surface of the second clothes accommodation part so as to be parallel to the top surface of the second cabinet; and   a supporting fixing part coupled to an upper portion of the closing fixing part to support the first clothes accommodation part.   
     
     
         17 . The packaging assembly of  claim 16 , wherein the closing fixing part comprises:
 a closing body supported on the top surface of the second clothes accommodation part to close a penetrated portion of the second cabinet;   a slide groove formed in a top surface of the closing body to guide a coupling position of the supporting fixing part; and   a coupling groove formed the top surface of the closing body and coupled with the supporting fixing part to fix the supporting fixing part.   
     
     
         18 . The packaging assembly of  claim 17 , wherein the supporting fixing part comprises:
 a fixing body fixed to the closing fixing part to support the first clothes accommodation part;   a slide rib protruding from the fixing body so as to slide in the slide groove; and   a coupling protrusion protruding from the fixing body so as to be inserted into the coupling groove and coupled thereto.   
     
     
         19 . The packaging assembly of  claim 18 , wherein one of the coupling protrusion and the coupling groove is provided with a magnetic force generator configured to generate a magnetic field, and
 the other one of the coupling protrusion and the coupling groove is provided with a magnetic member magnetized by the magnetic field of the magnetic force generator.   
     
     
         20 . The packaging assembly of  claim 13 , wherein the first cabinet further comprises a rear panel defining a rear surface of the first cabinet and detachably provided to the first cabinet,
