Tool cabinet

Abstract

A tool cabinet including an upper cover, a bottom board, a case body and a shelf accessory. The case body includes rotatably interconnected case boards, which are foldable with each other. The upper cover and the bottom board are loosely rabbetted into the case body. Without disconnecting each case board, each case board can be folded only by pulling out the pin in the upper cover, turning over the upper cover, then taking out the shelf and the upright column, releasing the block rabbeting, and folding the case boards. It is done after the shelf and the upright column are placed into a predetermined space of the right board and the back board during the folding process. It is very simple and convenient. Hence, it is convenient to carry the tool cabinet after it is folded. In another embodiment, a tool cabinet is also constructed with hinged panels and doors that after assembly can be easily folded into a compact unit for storage or shipping.

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0004] An object of the invention is to provide a foldable tool cabinet with a simple structure. The tool cabinet can be disconnected and assembled simply and carried conveniently and also can spare much room free of use. To achieve above-mentioned object, a technical solution of an embodiment of the invention is to provide a tool cabinet including an upper cover, a bottom board and a case body. The case body is composed of loosely interconnected case boards with both the upper cover and the bottom board being loosely connected with the case body.

Problems solved by technology

The main structure of the conventional tool cabinet is typically one whole body, which is heavy and not easy to carry.

There are complicated structures, such as mosaic assembly type, screw lock type etc, but it is disadvantageous in using tool to disconnect and assemble them.

It is fussy and time-consuming.

On the other hand, when the tool cabinet is free of use, it will still take much space.
