Benefits of technology

[0006] The primary purpose of the present invention is to provide a folding collapsible storage container, which is formed of a sheet material stamped into shape subject to a predetermined pattern, and then folded into a container and secured in shape by hook and loop materials. When unfastening the hook and loop materials, the container can be extended out and arranged into a flat manner to reduce the occupation of storage space. It is another object of the present invention to provide a folding collapsible storage container, which uses hook and loop materials to detachably secure a cover to the top side of the folding collapsible container body, which cover can be extended out and arranged in a flat manner when not in use. It is still another object of the present invention to provide a folding collapsible storage container, which has the container body and the cover respective formed of a flexible sheet material that can be directly folded into a flat manner to reduce the occupation of storage space when not in use.

Problems solved by technology

Another drawback of this structure of collapsible storage container is its complicated operating procedure.
When tough and stiff materials are used, the desired folding collapsible function according to this design becomes unable to achieve.
Further, this conventional design does not provide added functions.

first embodiment

[0030] Referring to FIGS. 1˜4, a folding collapsible storage container 1 in accordance with the present invention is shown made by folding a tough sheet member into shape. The sheet member comprises a bottom panel 10, a top panel 13, a back panel 12 connected between the bottom panel 10 and the top panel 13, a lower front panel 14 extended from one side, namely, the front side of the bottom panel 10 opposite to the back panel 12, an upper front panel 15 extended from one side of the top panel 13 opposite to the back panel 12, and two side panels 11 respectively extended from the two opposite lateral sides of the bottom panel 10. Each side panel 11 has two connection flaps 111 respectively extended along the straight rear side thereof and one of the two sloping edges of the double-beveled front side thereof, and fastening elements 112 respectively fixedly provided at the connection flaps 111 at an outer side. The lower front panel 14 has fastening elements 141 bilaterally disposed at...

second embodiment

[0034]FIGS. 16 and 17 show a folding collapsible storage container in accordance with the present invention. According to this embodiment, the folding collapsible storage container comprises a container body 1A and a cover 1B. Folding a tough sheet member into shape makes the container body 1A. The tough sheet member for the container body 1A comprises a front panel 1A2, a back panel 1A3, a bottom panel 1A0 connected between the front panel 1A2 and the back panel 1A3, and two side panels 1A1 respectively extended from the two opposite lateral sides of the bottom panel 1A0. Each side panel 1A1 has double-beveled front and rear sides 1A11, two connecting flaps 1A10 respectively extended along one of the two sloping edges of each of the double-beveled front and rear sides, and fastening elements 1A12 respectively provided at the connecting flaps 1 A10. The front panel 1A2 and the back panel 1A3 each have two fastening elements 1 A21 bilaterally disposed at the respective inside wall fo...

third embodiment

[0035]FIG. 13 shows a folding collapsible storage container according to the present invention. According to this embodiment, the folding collapsible storage container is comprised of a container body 4, a cover 5, and a bottom plate 6. The container body 4 is formed of a flexible sheet member, having a bottom panel, a front panel, a back panel, and two side panels. The front and back panels of the container body 4 each have a center folding line 41 vertically extending on the middle. Through the center folding line 41 of each of the front and back panels of the container body 4, the container body 4 can be folded into a collapsed flat manner as shown in FIG. 14. The bottom plate 6 can also be folded up into two folds, thereby minimizing the size. The cover 5 is formed of a flexible sheet member to fit over the top open side of the container body 4, having peripheral flaps 51 extending along the border thereof and spaced from one another by a respective gap, and flexible corner clip...
