Patent number: 9691302Abstract: A recording apparatus comprises a plurality of supporting materials, a plurality of labels, and an unpacking recordation form. The supporting materials supports and fixes components of a specific device. The amount of the labels is at least the amount of the supporting materials plus two, wherein the labels comprises a starting-label and an ending-label pasted on the unpacking recordation form. The unpacking recordation form comprises several recording columns between the starting-label and the ending-label, wherein the amount of the recording columns is corresponding to that of the supporting materials. When unpacking the supporting materials from the device, the labels is removed from the supporting materials to paste to the recording columns. Therefore, user can determine if all supporting materials in the device are unpacked completely by checking if all of the recording columns are pasted by the labels.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 2014Date of Patent: June 27, 2017Assignees: XYZPRINTING, INC., KINPO ELECTRONICS, INC., CAL-COMP ELECTRONICS & COMMUNICATIONS COMPANY LIMITEDInventor: Sin-In Ho
