FIG. 9 is a flowchart of an engineering method according to one embodiment. FIG. 10 is a schematic diagram showing the state of inspection of the electronic unit 2A in the engineering method according to the embodiment.
As shown in FIG. 9, this method includes a first packaging process S1, an inspection process S2, a second packaging process S3, a transportation process S4, and an on-site setup process S5.

In the first packaging step S1, in a factory or the like, the above-mentioned display device 2 and electronic unit 2A are supported in the package 1 from which the outer box part 13 has been removed, and the above-mentioned desk/packing box body 80 is This is a step of accommodating the moving top plate section 90. Note that inside the desk/packing box body 80, as shown in FIG. 7, a computer 2C and an uninterruptible power supply 2D are housed.

When the display device 2 and the electronic unit 2A are supported on the support surface 40a of the support plate portion 40, the article support portion 12 receives a load from the display device 2 and the electronic unit 2A. Then, a moment is generated with the lower end of the support plate section 40 as a fulcrum, and the article support section 12 tends to rotate (fall down) toward the support surface 40a. Here, the article support section 12 of this embodiment includes a pair of side plate sections 41 bent from both ends of the support plate section 40 in the direction in which the support surface 40a faces. The pair of side plate portions 41 prevent the article support portion 12 from falling toward the support surface 40a with the lower end of the support plate portion 40 as a fulcrum due to the load of the electronic unit 2A. Therefore, the display device 2 and the electronic unit 2A can be supported robustly.

Moreover, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6, the pair of article support parts 12 are provided back-to-back so that the back sides of the support surfaces 40a face each other. According to this configuration, one of the pair of article support sections 12 can be prevented from falling on the back side by the pair of side plates 41 of the other article support section 12 . Therefore, by providing the pair of article support parts 12 back to back, the article can be resistant to falling in the front and back direction. Moreover, since each of the pair of article support parts 12 is formed in a U-shape in plan view, it is resistant not only to falling in the front-back direction but also to falling in the left-right direction.

In the next inspection process S2, with the outer box part 13 removed as described above, the rotating top plate part 90 is placed in the unfolded state (see FIG. 3), and the rotating top plate part 90 is placed inside the desk/packing box body 80. The electronic computer 2C that has been installed is connected to the electronic unit 2A, and the electronic unit 2A is inspected. As shown in FIG. 10, next to the package 1 of this embodiment that accommodates the above-described desk/packing box 80 and rotating top plate part 90, there is a package 1A containing only the electronic unit 2F (for example, , a package housing only the electronic unit (I/O unit) shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. I do not care.

As shown in FIG. 4, the desk/packing box body 80 has a plurality of holes such as a handle hole 81 and a heat radiation hole 82, and as shown in FIG. 6, a gap D is formed on the back surface 80c2 side. Therefore, connection between the electronic computer 2C and the display device 2 via wiring is easy. Further, since the upper part of the article support section 12 is open, it is easy to connect the computer 2C to the electronic unit 2A supported on the back side via wiring. Moreover, the wiring connecting between the electronic units 2A and 2F can be easily routed by being hooked into the notch 48 shown in FIG. The electronic computer 2C is thus connected to external equipment and inspects the operation of each module 4A, 4F of the electronic units 2A, 2F before shipping.

According to this inspection step S2, the electronic units 2A, 2F can be inspected while being housed in the packages 1, 1A. This eliminates the need to arrange the modules 4A and 4F horizontally on an inspection table or the like, as in the conventional case, thereby improving inspection workability. Furthermore, in this inspection step S2, the PC-related items including the display device 2 and the electronic computer 2C are still housed in the package 1, and the package 1 itself becomes a staging area for the PC-related items, so the PC-related items are set up. There is no need to prepare a separate staging area for inspection, improving inspection work efficiency.

Further, the article support section 12 is formed in a U-shape when viewed from above, and serves as a partition for a desk worker. Furthermore, the material of the article support part 12 is cardboard, and the moisture value of the surface thereof is 3% to 4% (unit: % of the weight of moisture included in the weight of the paper), and the moisture content of the core (corrugated part) is The value is around 4-6%. In other words, even if the desk worker coughs or sneezes, the droplets can be absorbed by the article support section 12. For this reason, it is also effective as a countermeasure against coronaviruses such as the recent COVID-19. Further, when the packages 1 (desks) are arranged side by side, the arrangement distance of the packages 1 can be set freely.

In the next second packing process S3, after the above-mentioned inspection is completed, the rotating top plate part 90 is placed in the housed state as shown in FIG. 2, and the outer box part 13 is attached to the package 1 as shown in FIG. , the display device 2, the electronic unit 2A, the desk/packing box body 80, and the rotating top plate part 90 are packed into the package 1. Here, in the electronic unit 2A, it is preferable that the plurality of modules 4A are installed in the same mounting state as at the time of the above-mentioned inspection. Note that all of the wiring connecting the computer 2C and external equipment may be disconnected, or some connections that do not interfere with the installation of the outer box section 13 may be left in place.

The next transportation process S4 is a process of transporting the package 1 in the state shown in FIG. 1 with the outer box part 13 attached to the installation location (on-site) of the electronic unit 2A. The package 1 houses the electronic unit 2A in the state at the time of inspection, that is, in the mounted state. Further, a PC for inspecting the electronic unit 2A is also housed inside the article support section 12 and the desk/packing box body 80. This means fewer boxes are needed to transport (for example, hundreds of boxes are reduced to just a few boxes for the entire system) and the packaging volume is smaller than if each electronic device were packaged and shipped individually. Therefore, transportation costs can be significantly reduced. Furthermore, if the number of boxes is reduced, the time required for packing work can be shortened and work efficiency can be improved.

Further, since the number of boxes of the package 1 to be transported to the installation site is reduced, the space required for unpacking the package 1 at the installation site can be reduced. Furthermore, since the package 1 is made of an organic material, it is easier to dispose of on-site than a metal box or trolley. Furthermore, the package 1 is made of reinforced cardboard or the like, and is light and strong, so it can be recycled as a resource, saving resources and reducing the burden on the global environment.

The next on-site setup step S5 is the step of removing the outer box part 13 from the package 1 at the installation location of the transportation destination, removing the internal electronic unit 2A, and storing it in a cabinet provided at the installation location in the state at the time of inspection. It is.
