Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in the field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0035] Embodiment 1:

[0036] Please refer to the attached Figure 1-3 The utility model discloses a concealable foot pad structure for an energy storage chassis, comprising a chassis 1, a foot pad 2 and a movable component 3, wherein the foot pad 2 is connected to the chassis 1 by means of the movable component 3.

[0037] Among them, a receiving groove 11 is provided on one side of the box body 1. Specifically, the receiving groove 11 is a stepped groove and is provided at the bottom of the box body 1. There are several receiving grooves 11. The receiving groove 11 is formed with a mounting area 111 and a hidden area 112 distributed in a stepped manner. The box body 1 is provided with an outer card position 13 in the mounting area 111, and an inner card position 12 in the hidden area 112. Specifically, the outer card position 13 and the inner card position 12 are both circular through holes provided on the inner wall of the receiving groove 11. It can be understood that this is not a limitation on the shape of the outer card position 13 and the shape of the inner card position 12, and technicians in the relevant field can make improvements on this basis.

[0038] The box 1 is provided with a foot pad 2 in the accommodating groove 11. When the foot pad 2 is assembled in the outer clamping position 13, the foot pad 2 is located in the installation area 111 and protrudes to the bottom of the box 1 to serve as a support to ensure the balance of the box 1. When the foot pad 2 is assembled in the inner clamping position 12, the foot pad 2 can be hidden in the hiding area 112, which is beneficial to the packaging and transportation of the box 1 and the foot pad 2.

Specifically, the connecting shell 21 is preferably, but not limited to, a plastic shell or a metal shell, and the bottom pad 22 is preferably, but not limited to, a plastic plate, a silicone plate, a rubber plate or a metal plate. Further, an anti-skid layer is provided at the bottom of the bottom pad 22. The provision of the anti-skid layer can increase the friction between the bottom pad 22 and the bottom surface to increase the stability of the box 1 when it is placed on the ground. The connecting shell 21 and the bottom pad 22 are detachably connected. In some specific embodiments shown, the connecting shell 21 and the bottom pad 22 are glued or assembled with screws.

[0040] A movable assembly 3 is disposed inside the foot pad 2 , and the connecting shell 21 is engaged with the box body 1 at the outer engaging position 13 or the inner engaging position 12 through the movable assembly 3 , thereby realizing quick assembly and disassembly of the foot pad 2 .

[0041] When the energy storage chassis is packaged, the foot pad 2 is connected to the inner clamping position 12 through the movable component 3, and the foot pad 2 can be hidden in the receiving groove 11. At this time, the box body 1 is adapted to the packaging box, and the packaging box fully plays a protective role in the packaging and transportation process, and can reduce the amount of packaging materials used, and the packaging operation of the energy storage chassis is convenient. When the box body 1 is placed on the ground, the foot pad 2 is connected to the outer clamping position 13 through the movable component 3, the bottom pad 22 protrudes from the outside of the box body 1, and the foot pad 2 is supported on the bottom of the box body 1. The user adjusts the assembly position of the foot pad 2 to meet the different usage requirements of the box body 1, which is conducive to improving the flexibility of the use of the foot pad 2.

[0042] Embodiment 2:

[0043] The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that this embodiment further optimizes the structure of the movable component 3 of the utility model, see Figure 4~Figure 7 .

[0044] See also Figure 4~Figure 6 In this embodiment, a movable groove 212 is provided in the connection shell 21, and the movable assembly 3 includes a movable bar 31, which is provided in the movable groove 212 and is specifically in the shape of a long strip. The movable bar 31 includes a clamping end 311, which is the end of the movable bar 31 along the length direction. When the foot pad 2 is located in the installation area 111, the clamping end 311 is clamped at the outer clamping position 13, and when the foot pad 2 is located in the hidden area 112, the clamping end 311 is clamped at the inner clamping position 12. Specifically, the movable assembly 3 is provided with a plurality of groups, which is conducive to improving the stability of the connection between the foot pad 2 and the box body 1.

[0045] The connection shell 21 is provided with a snap-fit ​​hole 211. When the connection shell 21 is located in the receiving groove 11, the snap-fit ​​hole 211 is arranged corresponding to the outer snap-fit ​​position 13 or the inner snap-fit ​​position 12, and the snap-fit ​​hole 211 is connected to the movable groove 212. When the movable bar 31 is arranged in the movable groove 212, the snap-fit ​​end 311 is passed through the snap-fit ​​hole 211 and is slidably connected to the connection shell 21 at the snap-fit ​​hole 211.

[0046] A reset elastic member 32 is arranged between the clamping end 311 and the inner wall of the movable groove 212. The reset elastic member 32 is preferably but not limited to a spring. One end of the spring along the compression direction abuts against the inner wall of the movable groove 212, and the other end abuts against the clamping end 311. The reset elastic member 32 can press the clamping end 311 into the clamping hole 211 under the action of elastic force.

[0047] The movable bar 31 also includes a push-pull end 312, which is the other end of the movable bar 31 along the length direction. Specifically, the push-pull end 312 is bent toward the bottom pad 22, so that the operator can pull the push-pull end 312. An adjustment port 221 is provided through the outer wall of the bottom pad 22, and the push-pull end 312 is inserted into the adjustment port 221. The operator pulls the push-pull end 312 in the adjustment port 221. When the operator pulls the push-pull end 312 toward the side away from the snap-in hole 211, the reset elastic member 32 is compressed, the snap-in end 311 is separated from the outer snap-in position 13 and passes through the snap-in hole 211 into the movable groove 212, and the foot pad 2 can be disassembled from the outer snap-in position 13 and moved to the inner snap-in position 12. The operator releases the push-pull end 312 , and under the action of the resetting elastic member 32 , the clamping end 311 enters the inner clamping position 12 through the clamping hole 211 , and the foot pad 2 is clamped with the box body 1 , and the disassembly and assembly operation of the foot pad 2 is convenient.

[0048] A guide groove 213 is formed on the inner wall of the movable groove 212 of the connecting shell 21. Specifically, the guide groove 213 is a long strip-shaped groove. The length direction of the guide groove 213 is parallel to the compression direction of the reset elastic member 32. A socket 214 is formed through the inner wall of the guide groove 213.

[0049] In a preferred embodiment, a guide member 313 is provided on the movable bar 31 for limiting the sliding direction of the movable bar 31. The guide member 313 includes guide blocks, which are provided on both sides of the movable bar 31 in the sliding direction and are located in the guide groove 213. When the movable bar 31 slides in the movable groove 212, the guide blocks slide along the guide groove 213, and the guide groove 213 plays a certain guiding and limiting role in the movement of the movable bar 31. At the same time, the guide block can be disengaged from the guide groove 213 through the socket 214 to realize the disassembly and assembly of the movable bar 31, which is conducive to the maintenance or replacement of the movable component 3 after rapid disassembly and assembly.
