[0023] The storage box of this invention features a first door panel and a second door panel. The first door panel can rotate around a first pivot axis, and the second door panel can rotate around a second pivot axis, both extending vertically. A pull-out panel can move relative to the box body between a first position and a second position, moving into or away from the storage space. The movement of the pull-out panel relative to the box body also causes the first and second door panels to rotate relative to the box body. This allows users to easily place or pull items into the storage space by pushing or pulling the pull-out panel, facilitating retrieval. Furthermore, the movement of the pull-out panel also causes the first and second door panels to open or close, saving operational steps. In addition, since the first pivot axis of the first door panel and the second pivot axis of the second door panel both extend vertically, the first and second door panels can rotate to open or close in directions other than vertical, preventing them from obstructing the user's view or causing obstruction. This makes it easier for users to retrieve items, especially when the storage box is placed low, allowing them to easily see and retrieve items on the pull-out panel, improving the user experience.

[0043] like Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a storage box, which includes a box body 110, a door panel assembly 120, and a pull-out panel 130.

[0044] Specifically, the box body 110 has a storage space 111 for storing items. A doorway 112 communicating with the storage space 111 is provided on the peripheral wall of the box body 110, connecting the storage space 111 and the external space of the box body 110. A door panel assembly 120 is located at the doorway 112 and connected to the box body 110. The door panel assembly 120 includes a first door panel 121 and a second door panel 122, which are respectively connected to the box body 110. The first door panel 121 can rotate relative to the box body 110 around a first axis to move away from or towards the doorway 112; the second door panel 122 can rotate relative to the box body 110 around a second axis to move away from or towards the doorway 112. Both the first and second axes extend vertically. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, both the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 are located at the doorway 112. The first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 can be located within the doorway 112 and arranged in a left-right direction. The end of the first door panel 121 away from the second door panel 122 is rotatably connected to the box body 110, and the end of the second door panel 122 away from the first door panel 121 is also rotatably connected to the box body 110. Both the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 can swing left and right to open to the left and right sides of the doorway 112. Alternatively, the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 can be located on the outside or inside of the doorway 112. In some embodiments, the storage box further includes a door frame 113, which is embedded within the doorway 112. Both the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 are located within the doorway 112, and the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 are rotatably connected to the door frame 113.

[0045] A pull-out panel 130 is disposed within the storage space 111 and is movably connected to the box body 110. Horizontally, the pull-out panel 130 can move relative to the box body 110 between a first position and a second position to move closer to or further away from the storage space 111. For example, the pull-out panel 130 can move relative to the box body 110 in a front-back direction to move between the first and second positions. Furthermore, the pull-out panel 130 is connected to the door panel assembly 120. When the pull-out panel 130 moves relative to the box body 110 between the first and second positions, it can drive the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 to rotate relative to the box body 110, thereby opening or closing the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122. Figure 6As shown, the pull-out panel 130 is located at the bottom of the storage space 111 and can support items. The pull-out panel 130 is connected to the box body 110 and can move relative to the box body 110 in the front-back direction between a first position and a second position. When the pull-out panel 130 moves between the first position and the second position, it moves within the doorway 112. When the pull-out panel 130 is in the first position, it forms the bottom of the storage space 111, and the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 block the doorway 112 to separate the storage space 111 from the external environment. When the pull-out panel 130 is in the second position, it is away from the storage space 111, and both the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 are away from the doorway 112, leaving the doorway 112 open.

[0046] In some embodiments, the pull-out panel 130 includes a panel 135 and a handle 133. The panel 135 can support items, and the handle 133 is located at the end of the panel 135 away from the storage space 111, with at least a portion of the handle 133 located outside the storage space 111. Operating the handle 133 pushes or pulls the pull-out panel 130 as a whole. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the pull-out panel 130 is located in the first position, the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 are both closed, the pull-out panel 130 is close to the storage space 111, and the panel body 135 of the pull-out panel 130 is located within the storage space 111 and forms the bottom of the storage space 111; as shown Figure 6 As shown, the pull-out panel 130 is located in the second position, the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 open to both sides of the doorway 112, the pull-out panel 130 is away from the storage space 111 and is located between the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122, the panel body 135 of the pull-out panel 130 passes through the doorway 112, and part of the panel body 135 is located outside the box body 110 to facilitate the user to take out the items on the panel body 135.

[0047] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the storage box is provided with a first door panel 121 and a second door panel 122. The first door panel 121 can rotate around a first pivot, and the second door panel 122 can rotate around a second pivot. Both the first and second pivots extend vertically, allowing the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 to open to the left and right sides of the doorway 112. A pull-out panel 130 can move relative to the box body 110 between a first position and a second position, moving into or away from the storage space 111. Furthermore, the movement of the pull-out panel 130 relative to the box body 110 can cause the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 to rotate relative to the box body 110. Thus, when using the storage box, the user can easily place or pull out items into the storage space 111 by pushing or pulling the pull-out panel 130, facilitating retrieval. Additionally, the movement of the pull-out panel 130 can cause the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 to close or open, saving operational steps. Furthermore, since the first pivot of the first door panel 121 and the second pivot of the second door panel 122 both extend in the vertical direction, the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 can rotate to open or close in directions other than the vertical direction (e.g., in...). Figure 1 and Figure 6 In the example, the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 are flipped in the left and right directions, which avoids the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 from blocking the user's view or causing obstruction, making it convenient for the user to take out items. Especially when the storage box is placed in a relatively low position, the user can also easily see the items on the pull-out panel 130 and take them out, which improves the user experience.

[0048] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the bottom of the box body 110 is provided with a guide strip 114, which extends along the movement direction of the pull-out plate 130. A limiting block 134 is provided on the side of the pull-out plate 130 opposite to the storage space 111. The limiting block 134 and the bottom side of the pull-out plate 130 form a limiting groove, and the guide strip 114 is disposed within the limiting groove. The limiting block 134 can slide along the guide strip 114. Specifically, the bottom of the box body 110 is provided with a limiting hole 115, which is rectangular and has two sides extending in the front-back direction. At least one side is provided with a guide strip 114 extending in the front-back direction. A pull-out panel 130 is disposed within the storage space 111. At least one limiting block 134 is provided on the bottom side of the pull-out panel 130. The position of the limiting hole 115 corresponds to the position of the guide strip 114. The limiting block 134 is L-shaped, with one end connected to the bottom side of the pull-out panel 130, forming a limiting groove between the limiting block 134 and the bottom side of the pull-out panel 130. A portion of the guide strip 114 is located within the limiting groove, and the limiting block 134 is in contact with the guide strip 114. The limiting block 134 can slide along the guide strip 114 to limit the movement direction of the pull-out panel 130. Figure 3 and Figure 9 As shown, the guide bar 114 is provided with an installation notch 116, and the end of the limiting block 134 away from the pull plate 130 can pass through the installation notch 116 to connect with or separate from the guide bar 114.

[0049] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, when the pull-out plate 130 is in the first position, a connecting hole 125 is formed at the bottom of the door panel assembly 120. The connecting hole 125 connects the storage space 111 and the external space of the box body 110. The handle portion 133 passes through the connecting hole 125, and at least a portion of the handle portion 133 is located on the outside of the box body 110. Specifically, the handle 133 is located at the end of the panel 135 away from the storage space 111. The bottom of the first door panel 121 is provided with a clearance notch on the side near the second door panel 122, and the bottom of the second door panel 122 is provided with a clearance notch on the side near the first door panel 121. When the pull-out plate 130 is in the first position, both the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 block the door opening 112. The first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 are distributed in the left and right direction. The clearance notch on the first door panel 121 and the clearance notch on the second door panel 122 are combined to form a connecting hole 125. The handle 133 is located in the connecting hole 125, and at least a part of the handle 133 is located outside the box 110. The user can operate the handle 133 to pull out or push in the pull-out plate 130.

[0050] like Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the door panel assembly 120 further includes a first connecting rod 123 and a second connecting rod 124. The two ends of the first connecting rod 123 are rotatably connected to the first door panel 121 and the pull-out plate 130, respectively. The two ends of the second connecting rod 124 are rotatably connected to the second door panel 122 and the pull-out plate 130, respectively. Specifically, one end of the first connecting rod 123 can be rotatably connected to the first door panel 121 via a pivot, and the other end can be rotatably connected to the pull-out plate 130 via a pivot. One end of the second connecting rod 124 can be rotatably connected to the second door panel 122 via a pivot, and the other end can be rotatably connected to the pull-out plate 130 via a pivot. During the movement of the pull-out plate 130 between the first position and the second position, it drives the first connecting rod 123 and the second connecting rod 124 to move. The first connecting rod 123 drives the first door panel 121 to rotate, and the second connecting rod 124 drives the second door panel 122 to rotate. It is understandable that the connection between the first door panel 121 and the first connecting rod 123 should be offset from the first rotating shaft to ensure that the first connecting rod 123 can drive the first door panel 121 to rotate relative to the box body 110; the connection between the second door panel 122 and the second connecting rod 124 should be offset from the second rotating shaft to ensure that the second connecting rod 124 can drive the second door panel 122 to rotate relative to the box body 110.

[0051] like Figure 9As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, a third position is provided between the first and second positions. When the pull-out plate 130 is in the third position, both the first link 123 and the second link 124 are perpendicular to the movement direction of the pull-out plate 130. Furthermore, in the movement direction perpendicular to the pull-out plate 130, the side of the pull-out plate 130 near the first door panel 121 forms an angle A1 with the first door panel 121, where A1 is an acute angle; the side of the pull-out plate 130 near the second door panel 122 forms an angle A2 with the second door panel 122, where A2 is an acute angle. Specifically, when the pull-out plate 130 moves in the front-back direction and is in the third position, both the first link 123 and the second link 124 extend in the left-right direction. The first connecting rod 123 forms a first connection point at its connection with the first door panel 121, and the first connecting rod 123 forms a second connection point at its connection with the pull-out plate 130. The second connecting rod 124 forms a third connection point at its connection with the second door panel 122, and the second connecting rod 124 forms a fourth connection point at its connection with the pull-out plate 130. In the left-right direction, the distance between the second connection point and the side of the pull-out plate 130 closest to the first door panel 121 is less than the length of the first connecting rod 123, such that when the pull-out plate 130 is in the third position, there is an acute angle between the first door panel 121 and that side of the pull-out plate 130. The distance between the fourth connection point and the side of the pull-out plate 130 closest to the second door panel 122 is less than the length of the second connecting rod 124, such that when the pull-out plate 130 is in the third position, there is an acute angle between the second door panel 122 and that side of the pull-out plate 130. For example, in Figure 9 In the example, the first door panel 121 is located to the left of the pull-out panel 130, and the second door panel 122 is located to the right of the pull-out panel 130. When the pull-out panel 130 is in the third position, the first door panel 121 and the left side of the pull-out panel 130 form an angle A1, which is an acute angle, and the second door panel 122 and the right side of the pull-out panel 130 form an angle A2, which is an acute angle. That is, within the movement stroke of the pull-out panel 130, the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 can rotate to their maximum angle and are spaced apart from the pull-out panel 130 to facilitate the user in retrieving items. Furthermore, before and after the pull-out panel 130 passes the third position during its movement, the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 first rotate away from the pull-out panel 130 and then rotate towards the pull-out panel 130, making the rotation motion of the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 similar to the flapping of butterfly wings, which is aesthetically pleasing and enhances the visual experience of the storage box. Understandably, during use, the pull-out panel 130 can stop at any position between the first and second positions.

[0052] like Figure 8As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, when the pull-out panel 130 is in the second position, in the direction of movement perpendicular to the pull-out panel 130, the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 are respectively located on both sides of the pull-out panel 130, and the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 are respectively attached to the side edge of the corresponding pull-out panel 130. Specifically, when the pull-out panel 130 is in the second position, the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 are respectively located on the left and right sides of the pull-out panel 130, wherein the first connection point is located behind the second connection point, the third connection point is located behind the fourth connection point, the first door panel 121 is attached to the left side of the pull-out panel 130, and the second door panel 122 is attached to the right side of the pull-out panel 130. This can reduce the probability of the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 being damaged by external forces. It should be noted that when the pull-out panel 130 is in the first position, the second connection point is located behind the first connection point, and the fourth connection point is located behind the third connection point.

[0053] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the first connecting rod 123 and the second connecting rod 124 are both located on the side of the pull-out plate 130 opposite to the storage space 111. Specifically, the first connecting rod 123 and the second connecting rod 124 are respectively connected to the bottom side of the pull-out plate 130, and the first connecting rod 123 is connected to the bottom of the first door panel 121, and the second connecting rod 124 is connected to the bottom of the second door panel 122, thereby preventing the first connecting rod 123 and the second connecting rod 124 from obstructing the view when taking out or putting in items, thus facilitating user use. Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the pull-out plate 130 has a first mounting groove 131 and a second mounting groove 132 with the openings on the side opposite to the storage space 111 facing downwards. A first connecting rod 123 is disposed in the first mounting groove 131 and connected to the bottom wall of the first mounting groove 131; a second connecting rod 124 is disposed in the second mounting groove 132 and connected to the bottom wall of the second mounting groove 132, so as to accommodate the first connecting rod 123 and the second connecting rod 124 and avoid the first connecting rod 123 and the second connecting rod 124 interfering with the movement of the pull-out plate 130.

[0054] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the door panel assembly 120 further includes a first slider and a second slider. A first sliding groove is provided on the first door panel 121, and a second sliding groove is provided on the second door panel 122. When the pull-out plate 130 is in the second position, both the first and second sliding grooves extend along the movement direction of the pull-out plate 130. The first slider is disposed within the first sliding groove and is slidable relative to the first sliding groove. A first connecting rod 123 is rotatably connected to the first slider. The second slider is disposed within the second sliding groove and is slidable relative to the second sliding groove. A second connecting rod 124 is rotatably connected to the second slider. Specifically, the first sliding groove is located at the bottom of the first door panel 121 and extends along the width direction of the first door panel 121; the second sliding groove is located at the bottom of the second door panel 122 and extends along the width direction of the second door panel 122. This ensures that when the pull-out plate 130 is in the first position, both the first and second sliding grooves extend in the left-right direction; when the pull-out plate 130 is in the second position, both the first and second sliding grooves extend in the front-back direction. During the process of the pull-out plate 130 moving from the first position to the second position, after the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 respectively come into contact with the left and right sides of the pull-out plate 130, the pull-out plate 130 is pulled further, so that the first slider slides along the first slide groove and the second slider slides along the second slide groove.

[0055] In summary, the embodiments of the present invention provide a storage box that has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0056] 1. The movement of the pull-out plate 130 drives the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 to rotate, thereby opening or closing, saving operation steps;

[0057] 2. The first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 can open to the left and right sides of the doorway 112 to avoid obstructing the user's view or causing obstacles, making it convenient for the user to take out items. Especially when the storage box is placed in a relatively low position, the user can also easily see the items on the pull-out panel 130 and take them out, improving the user experience.

[0058] 3. During the movement of the pull-out panel 130, the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 can rotate and open to the maximum angle at the third position, and be spaced apart from the pull-out panel 130 to create a larger space between the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122, making it easier for users to take out items. In addition, during the movement of the pull-out panel 130 between the first position and the second position, the rotation of the first door panel 121 and the second door panel 122 is similar to the flapping of butterfly wings, which is aesthetically pleasing and enhances the visual experience of the storage box.

[0059] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. It should be pointed out that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and substitutions without departing from the principles of the invention, and these improvements and substitutions should also be considered within the scope of protection of the invention.
