[0002] With the development of the times, the modern economy has become more and more diversified, and the logistics industry has developed rapidly. The most direct link between people and the logistics industry is sending and receiving parcels. At the same time, in order to facilitate sending and receiving parcels, self-service receiving cabinets have appeared on the market that use electronic control systems to temporarily store express parcels, such as Fengchao receiving cabinets. Couriers or users can unilaterally store parcels in self-service receiving cabinets, and the pickup personnel can then take out the parcels by scanning codes. However, this type of self-service receiving cabinet still has the following problems:

[0003] 1. The cost of the product is high;

[0004] 2. There are space and power supply requirements for the installation site;

[0005] 3. Users may need to pay;

[0006] 4. The self-service receiving cabinet is still a certain distance away from the actual express delivery address (receiving address), which is inconvenient for the recipient to receive the parcel;

[0007] 5. When a courier or user deposits a package in a self-service receiving cabinet, they must first perform the corresponding unlocking operation before opening the cabinet door and then depositing the items. The operation is rather troublesome and there is still a certain inconvenience in depositing packages.

[0008] At the same time, the Chinese utility model patent specification with authorization announcement number CN208551010U discloses a new type of parcel delivery storage box, which is a simple civilian express storage cabinet, which solves the above problems to a certain extent, but the parcel delivery storage box and its delivery method still have the following problems:

[0009] During storage, the parcel needs to fall from the delivery bucket into the box, which makes the parcel easily damaged. Summary of the invention

[0010] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings of the prior art, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a storage device that is convenient for storing articles.

[0011] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides a storage device, comprising a storage box with a take-in and put-out opening, a protective cavity with a cavity opening, and a locking mechanism, wherein the storage box is located in the protective cavity, and the locking mechanism comprises a locking portion arranged on the protective cavity, and a locked portion arranged on the storage box, and the storage box has at least a first placement state and a second placement state in the protective cavity, and when the storage box is in the first placement state in the protective cavity, the locking mechanism is in an unlocked state; when the storage box is in the second placement state in the protective cavity, the locking mechanism is in a locked state, and the cavity wall of the protective cavity blocks the take-in and put-out opening of the storage box.

[0012] Furthermore, the first placement state is a state when the access opening of the storage box is facing downward, and the second placement state is a state when the access opening of the storage box is facing upward, and when the storage box is in the second placement state in the protective cavity, the upper cavity wall of the protective cavity blocks the access opening.

[0013] Furthermore, the storage box is provided with the access opening at one end in the up-down direction, and the protection cavity is provided with the cavity opening at one end in the front-back direction.

[0014] Furthermore, the locking portion includes a latch that can move in an up-down direction, and the locked portion includes a lock seat having an insertion hole.

[0015] Furthermore, the locking portion includes a latch that can move in the up-down direction, and the locked portion includes a limited baffle, which is formed by a side wall of the storage box.

[0017] Furthermore, the locking portion further comprises an elastic element abutting against the upper end of the latch, and the elastic element can apply a downward elastic force to the latch, and the lower end of the latch is provided with an inclined surface.

[0018] Furthermore, the storage box is provided with a missing corner or a notch, and when the storage box is in a first placement state in the protection cavity, the locking portion is located at the missing corner or the notch.

[0019] Furthermore, the locked portion is arranged on one end of the inclined side wall of the storage box, and the distance between the end of the inclined side wall provided with the locked portion and the cavity opening is greater than the distance between the other end of the inclined side wall and the cavity opening.

[0020] Furthermore, the locking part and / or the locked part is a magnet, and the locking part can lock the locked part by magnetic force.

[0021] As described above, the storage device according to the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0022] In the storage device of the present invention, in the initial state, the storage box is in the first placement state in the protective cavity, at which time the locking portion fails to restrict the locked portion, the locking mechanism is in the unlocked state, and the locking mechanism fails to lock the storage box in the protective cavity. Therefore, when it is necessary to store items in the storage box, the depositor can take the storage box out of the protective cavity through the cavity opening without unlocking the locking mechanism, and then put the items into the storage box through the access opening, and then put the storage box into the protective cavity through the cavity opening, so that the storage box is in the second placement state in the protective cavity. When the lock is in a closed state, the lock part can limit the locked part, and the lock mechanism is in a locked state, that is, the lock mechanism locks the storage box in the protection cavity, and the cavity wall of the protection cavity blocks the access opening of the storage box to ensure that the items are in a closed environment, which plays a role in preserving and protecting the items, thereby realizing the storage of items. This storage method does not require the depositor to carry unlocking tools, does not require the depositor to perform unlocking operations, and does not require the depositor to carry locking tools, which facilitates the storage of items. This storage method will not cause items to fall, etc., thereby effectively preventing items from being damaged.

[0055] Embodiment 1

[0056] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, this embodiment provides a storage device, including a storage box 1 with a take-in and put-out port 11, a protective cavity 2 with a cavity opening 21, and a locking mechanism. The storage box 1 is located in the protective cavity 2, and the locking mechanism includes a locking portion 31 arranged on the protective cavity 2, and a locked portion 32 arranged on the storage box 1. The storage box 1 has at least a first placement state and a second placement state in the protective cavity 2. When the storage box 1 is in the first placement state in the protective cavity 2, the locking mechanism is in an unlocked state; when the storage box 1 is in the second placement state in the protective cavity 2, the locking mechanism is in a locked state, and the cavity wall of the protective cavity 2 blocks the take-in and put-out port 11 of the storage box 1. In the initial state of the storage device in this embodiment, the storage box 1 is in the first placement state in the protection cavity 2. At this time, the locking portion 31 fails to restrict the locked portion 32, and the locking mechanism is in the unlocked state. The locking mechanism fails to lock the storage box 1 in the protection cavity 2. Therefore, when it is necessary to store items in the storage box 1, the depositor can take the storage box 1 out of the protection cavity 2 through the cavity opening 21 without unlocking the locking mechanism, and then put the items into the storage box 1 through the access opening 11, and then put the storage box 1 into the protection cavity 2 through the cavity opening 21, and make the storage box 1 in the protection cavity 2 in the second placement state. In the placement state, the locking portion 31 can limit the locked portion 32, and the locking mechanism is in a locked state, that is, the locking mechanism locks the storage box 1 in the protection cavity 2, and at this time the cavity wall of the protection cavity 2 blocks the access port 11 of the storage box 1 to ensure that the items are in a closed environment, which plays a role in preserving and protecting the items, thereby realizing the storage of items. This storage method does not require the depositor to carry an unlocking tool, does not require the depositor to perform an unlocking operation, and does not require the depositor to carry a locking tool, which facilitates the storage of items. This storage method will not cause the items to fall, etc., thereby effectively preventing the items from being damaged. When the item needs to be taken out, the recipient unlocks the locking mechanism. At this time, the locking portion 31 loses its restrictive effect on the locked portion 32, and the locking mechanism loses its locking effect on the storage box 1. The recipient can then take the storage box 1 out of the protective cavity 2 through the cavity opening 21, and can take the item out of the storage box 1 through the access port 11, thereby completing the collection. Finally, the recipient puts the storage box 1 back into the protective cavity 2 through the cavity opening 21, and puts the storage box 1 in the first placement state, so as to store the item again.

[0057] At the same time, this embodiment provides an article storage method, using the storage device, in an initial state, the storage box 1 is in a first placement state in the protective cavity 2, and the article storage method includes the following steps:

[0058] S1. The depositor takes the storage box 1 out of the protective cavity 2 through the cavity opening 21.

[0059] S2, the depositor puts the items into the storage box 1 through the access opening 11;

[0060] S3. The depositor places the storage box 1 into the protective cavity 2 through the cavity opening 21, and the storage box 1 is in the second placement state in the protective cavity 2. The locking mechanism locks the storage box 1 in the protective cavity 2, and the cavity wall of the protective cavity 2 blocks the access opening 11 of the storage box 1.

[0061] This item storage method realizes the storage of items based on the above steps. At the same time, during the storage process, the depositor does not need to carry unlocking tools, does not need to perform unlocking operations, and does not need to carry locking tools. The operation is simple, which facilitates the storage of items. This storage method will not cause items to fall, etc., thereby effectively preventing items from being damaged.

[0062] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the first placement state is the state when the access opening 11 of the storage box 1 is facing downward. Figure 2 As shown, the second placement state is the state when the access opening 11 of the storage box 1 faces upward, and when the storage box 1 is in the second placement state in the protective cavity 2, the upper cavity wall 22 of the protective cavity 2 blocks the access opening 11. That is, when the storage box 1 is in the first placement state in the protective cavity 2, the access opening 11 of the storage box 1 faces downward; at the same time, in step S3, the depositor puts the storage box 1 into the protective cavity 2 through the cavity opening 21, and makes the access opening 11 of the storage box 1 face upward, at this time, the locking part 31 can limit the locked part 32, the locking mechanism is in the locked state, and the locking mechanism can lock the storage box 1 in the protective cavity 2, and the upper cavity wall 22 of the protective cavity 2 blocks the access opening 11. In addition, in step S2, the depositor needs to first turn the taken-out storage box 1 180 degrees and make the access opening 11 of the storage box 1 face upward, and then put the items into the storage box 1 through the access opening 11 to ensure that the items will not fall out of the storage box 1. Then in step S3, the storage box 1 is directly pushed into the set position in the protective cavity 2, so that the storage box 1 can be placed in the second placement state in the protective cavity 2.

[0063] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the storage box 1 is provided with the access opening 11 at one end in the up-down direction, and the protective cavity 2 is provided with the cavity opening 21 at one end in the front-back direction. In step S1, the depositor pulls the storage box 1 out of the protective cavity 2 through the cavity opening 21 along the front-back direction; in step S3, the depositor pushes the storage box 1 into the protective cavity 2 through the cavity opening 21 along the front-back direction.

[0064] like Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, in this embodiment, the locking part 31 includes a latch 311 that can move in the up-down direction, and the locked part 32 includes a lock seat 321 with a socket. In step S3, after the storage box 1 is put into the protective cavity 2, the latch 311 is inserted into the socket of the lock seat 321, thereby locking the storage box 1. At the same time, in this embodiment, the locking part 31 also includes an elastic element that abuts against the upper end of the latch 311, and the elastic element can apply a downward elastic force to the latch 311, and the lower end of the latch 311 is provided with an inclined surface 312. In step S3, when the depositor pushes the storage box 1 into the protective cavity 2, the side wall and the lock seat 321 of the storage box 1 will be interchanged with the inclined surface 312 of the latch 311, and the latch 311 will be pushed upward by the inclined surface 312 to avoid the latch 311 blocking the movement of the storage box 1, and ensure that the storage box 1 can move smoothly to the set position, and when the storage box 1 moves to the set position, the latch 311 corresponds to the position of the insertion hole of the lock seat 321, and at this time, under the action of the elastic element, the latch 311 moves downward and inserts into the insertion hole, realizing the automatic locking of the storage box 1. In the initial state, the position of the latch 311 and the lock seat 321 do not correspond, and the latch 311 cannot limit the lock seat 321, so the storage box 1 will not be locked. In this embodiment, the locking part 31 and its latch 311 are installed in the protective cavity 2. In addition, the locking mechanism in this embodiment is also called a latch lock, and the locking mechanism can adopt an aircraft latch lock or a homemade latch lock.

[0065] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the storage box 1 is provided with a missing corner 13. When the storage box 1 is in the first placement state in the protective cavity 2, the latch 311 of the locking portion 31 is located at the missing corner 13 to avoid interference between the locking portion 31 and the storage box 1 in the initial state, and at this time, the latch 311 cannot restrict the lock seat 321 and the storage box 1, so that the storage box 1 is in an unlocked state. In this embodiment, the front side edge of the bottom of the storage box 1 is provided with a missing corner 13, which is in a step shape. The lock seat 321 is installed on the front side wall of the storage box 1, specifically on the front inner side wall of the storage box 1, and the lock seat 321 is located at one end of the storage box 1 with the access port 11. In step S1, the depositor pulls the storage box 1 out of the protective cavity 2 backward through the cavity opening 21. In step S2, the depositor first turns over the taken-out storage box 1, and makes the access port 11 of the storage box 1 face upward, and then puts the items into the storage box 1. In step S3 , the depositor directly pushes the storage box 1 forward through the cavity opening 21 into the protective cavity 2 to a set position, and at this time, the latch 311 automatically inserts into the insertion hole of the lock seat 321 , thereby locking the storage box 1 .

[0066] In addition, if Figure 1As shown, in this embodiment, an opening 12 is provided on the rear side wall of the storage box 1, and the depositor or the recipient can insert a finger into the opening 12 to conveniently pull out or push the storage box 1 into the protective cavity 2. When the storage box 1 is in a locked state in the protective cavity 2, the depositor can also directly insert express documents into the storage box 1 through the opening 12.

[0067] In this embodiment, the storage box 1, the locking mechanism, and the protective cavity 2 together constitute a storage unit, which can be widely used in a variety of storage devices, including but not limited to self-service express delivery cabinets, daily household or office storage cabinets, etc. In this embodiment, the object can specifically refer to a package 4.

[0068] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in the initial state, the storage box 1 is in the first placement state in the protection cavity 2, at this time, the access opening 11 of the storage box 1 faces downward, and the lower end of the latch 311 is located at the missing corner 13, at this time, the locking portion 31 fails to restrict the locked portion 32, so the locking mechanism cannot lock the storage box 1 in the protection cavity 2, and the locking mechanism is in an unlocked state; then in step S1, the depositor can pull the storage box 1 out of the protection cavity 2 in a backward and parallel manner without performing any unlocking operation; then, in step S2, the depositor first pulls the taken storage box 1 to The storage box 1 is flipped upside down until the access opening 11 faces upward, and then the items are placed into the storage box 1 through the access opening 11, so that the items will not fall out of the storage box 1; then in step S3, the depositor directly pushes the storage box 1 forward and parallel into the protective cavity 2 through the cavity opening 21 until the latch 311 is inserted into the lock seat 321. At this time, the storage box 1 is in the second placement state in the protective cavity 2, and the locking mechanism is in the locked state, and the storage box 1 is locked in the protective cavity 2. At this time, the upper cavity wall 22 of the protective cavity 2 blocks the access opening 11, thereby completing the storage of items.

[0069] Embodiment 2

[0070] like Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment is based on the above-mentioned embodiment 1, and its difference is that in this embodiment, a notch 14 is provided on the front side of the bottom of the storage box 1. When the storage box 1 is in the first placement state in the protection cavity 2, the access opening 11 of the storage box 1 faces downward, and the latch 311 of the locking part 31 is located at the notch 14 to avoid interference between the locking part 31 and the storage box 1 in this state. At this time, the locking part 31 cannot limit the locked part 32, so that the storage box 1 is in an unlocked state. In this embodiment, the notch 14 on the storage box 1 is U-shaped, also called a U-shaped notch.

[0071] Embodiment 3

[0072] like Figure 6As shown, this embodiment is based on the above-mentioned embodiment 1, and its difference is that the lock seat 321 is installed on the front outer side wall of the storage box 1 at one end away from the access opening 11, and two pads 16 are also installed on the front outer side wall of the storage box 1, which are spaced apart in the left and right directions, and there is a gap 161 between the two pads 16. When the storage box 1 is in the first placement state in the protection cavity 2, the access opening 11 of the storage box 1 faces downward, and the latch 311 of the locking part 31 is located in the gap 161 between the two pads 16. At this time, the locking part 31 cannot limit the locked part 32, and the storage box 1 is in an unlocked state. In step S3, the depositor pushes the storage box 1 forward through the cavity opening 21 into the protective cavity 2 until the two pads 16 abut against the front cavity wall of the protective cavity 2. At this time, the latch 311 is automatically inserted into the socket of the lock seat 321, thereby locking the storage box 1. In this process, the abutment relationship between the pad 16 and the front cavity wall is used to prevent the lock seat 321 from directly colliding with the front cavity wall, thereby causing damage to the lock seat 321 and its mounting structure.

[0073] Embodiment 4

[0074] like Figure 7 As shown, this embodiment is based on the above-mentioned embodiment 1, and its difference is that the front side wall of the storage box 1 is an inclined side wall 15, that is, in this embodiment, the locked portion 32 is arranged on one end of the inclined side wall 15 of the storage box 1, and the distance between the end of the inclined side wall 15 provided with the locked portion 32 and the cavity opening 21 is greater than the distance between the other end of the inclined side wall 15 and the cavity opening 21, that is, the end of the inclined side wall 15 installed with the lock seat 321 is tilted forward. In this way, when the storage box 1 is in the first placement state in the protection cavity 2, the access opening 11 of the storage box 1 faces downward, and the inclined side wall 15 will avoid the latch 311. At this time, the storage box 1 will not interfere with the latch 311, and the locking portion 31 cannot limit the locked portion 32, and the storage box 1 is in an unlocked state. In step S3 , the access opening 11 of the storage box 1 faces upward, and when the depositor pushes the storage box 1 forward to a set position in the protection cavity 2 , the lock seat 321 will correspond to the latch 311 , and the latch 311 will be inserted into the lock seat 321 .

[0075] Embodiment 5

[0076] like Figure 8As shown, this embodiment is based on the above-mentioned embodiment 1, and its difference is that in this embodiment, the front side wall of the storage box 1 is not provided with a lock seat 321, and in this embodiment, the locked part 32 includes a limited baffle 322, and the limited baffle 322 is composed of the front side wall of the storage box 1, that is, the front side wall of the storage box 1 is directly used as the locked part 32. In step S3, the access port 11 of the storage box 1 faces upward. When the depositor pushes the storage box 1 forward parallel to the cavity opening 21 into the protective cavity 2, the front side wall of the storage box 1, that is, the limited baffle 322, will be in contact with the inclined surface 312 of the latch 311, pushing the latch 311 to move upward until the storage box 1 moves forward to the set position. At this time, the latch 311 is inserted downward into the storage box 1, and the latch 311 is located behind the limited baffle 322, so that the storage box 1 is limited to move backward relative to the protective cavity 2 by utilizing the abutment relationship between the latch 311 and the inner wall of the limited baffle 322, thereby locking the storage box 1 in the protective cavity 2.

[0077] Embodiment 6

[0078] like Fig. 9 As shown, based on the above-mentioned embodiment five, the difference in this embodiment is that the locked portion 32 in this embodiment also includes a reinforcing baffle 323 installed on the limited baffle 322, and a groove is provided on the reinforcing baffle 323, and the groove of the reinforcing baffle 323 is stuck on the limited baffle 322. In step S3, in the process of pushing the storage box 1 forward and parallel into the protective cavity 2, the limited baffle plate 322 will abut against the inclined surface 312 of the latch pin 311 through the reinforcing baffle plate 323, and push the latch pin 311 to move upward, and when the storage box 1 moves to the set position, the latch pin 311 is located behind the reinforcing baffle plate 323 and the limited baffle plate 322, and the latch pin 311 abuts against the limited baffle plate 322 through the reinforcing baffle plate 323, and limits the limited baffle plate 322 and the storage box 1, thereby avoiding the latch pin 311 from directly acting on the limited baffle plate 322 in this process and easily causing wear to the limited baffle plate 322, thereby avoiding damage to the storage box 1.

[0079] Embodiment 7

[0080] This embodiment is based on the above-mentioned embodiment 1, and its difference is that in this embodiment, the locking part 31 is a magnet, and the locked part 32 is made of a magnetic conductive material, and the locking part 31 can lock the locked part 32 by magnetic force. Figures 10 to 12 As shown, in this embodiment, the locking portion 31 and the locked portion 32 are both in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped, the locking portion 31 is installed in the protection cavity 2, and the locking portion 31 can rotate or move in the up-down direction or in the left-right direction. Fig.11As shown, when the storage box 1 is in the first placement state in the protective cavity 2, the access opening 11 faces downward. At this time, since the locked portion 32 and the locking portion 31 are misaligned, the locking portion 31 cannot exert the required adsorption force on the locked portion 32, and the locking mechanism is in an unlocked state. Therefore, in step S1, the storage box 1 can be pulled out of the protective cavity 2 in parallel and backward. Subsequently, in step S2, the depositor first turns the taken-out storage box 1 upward until the access opening 11 faces upward, and then puts the items into the storage box 1 through the access opening 11, so that the items will not fall from the storage box 1. Then in step S3, the depositor directly pushes the storage box 1 forward and parallel into the protective cavity 2 through the cavity opening 21, as shown in FIG. Fig.12 As shown, until the locked portion 32 is adsorbed on the locking portion 31, the storage box 1 is locked. At this time, the storage box 1 is in the second placement state in the protective cavity 2. The principle that anisotropic magnets obtain the best magnetic properties in the orientation direction of the magnet is used, that is, the suction force perpendicular to the direction of the magnet is much greater than the suction force in the parallel direction; in this embodiment, when the storage box 1 is in the second placement state in the protective cavity 2, the rear end face of the locking portion 31 is adsorbed with the front end face of the locked portion 32, so that the locking portion 31 can apply the maximum suction force to the locked portion 32 in the front-to-back direction to prevent the storage box 1 from being pulled out by applying a small pulling force in the locked state; and when the items need to be taken out, the person who takes the items can operate the locking mechanism and rotate the locking portion 31, or move it in the up-down direction, or move it in the left-right direction, so that the locking portion 31 and the locked portion 32 are staggered, and the storage box 1 can be easily unlocked. In addition, the orientation direction of the magnet refers to the direction in which the anisotropic magnet can obtain the best magnetic properties. In this embodiment, when the front end face of the locked portion 32 and the rear end face of the locking portion 31 are adsorbed, the suction force between the two in the front-to-back direction is the largest, and the storage box 1 is locked; while the suction force between the locked portion 32 and the locking portion 31 in the up-down and left-right directions is the smallest, so when unlocking, it is convenient to push the locking portion 31 in the up-down direction, left-right direction, or rotate it to unlock the storage box 1. The storage device in this embodiment is suitable for use in scenarios where users believe that the security situation is relatively ideal.
