[0025] The expansion box 3 is provided with a top cover, and the expansion box 3 is sleeved on the upper end of the main box 2, and includes an expansion box body 31, and a slide groove 32 is provided on the lower end surface of the expansion box body 31, and the upper end of the main box body 23 is slidably connected in the slide groove 32.
[0026] Two sets of locking mechanisms 4 are symmetrically installed on the front and rear end surfaces of the expansion box 3, and are used to fix the expansion box 3 on the upper end of the main box 2. The locking mechanism 4 includes a mounting plate 43 and a driving rod 45. The rear end of the driving rod 45 passes through the mounting plate 43 and is fixedly connected to a positioning plate 42. An elastic component 41 is sleeved on the outer wall of the driving rod 45. The elastic component 41 is located between the positioning plate 42 and the mounting plate 43. Two sets of threaded columns 44 are installed on the front end surface of the positioning plate 42. The two sets of threaded columns 44 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the driving rod 45.
[0027] Specifically, the support base 1 is installed at the lower end of the main box 2 to improve the strength of the box body and prevent the carton from getting damp. The expansion box 3 is sleeved on the upper end of the main box 2. The expansion box 3 is pulled upward and the main box 2 and the expansion box 3 are fixed through the locking mechanism 4 to achieve the effect of adjusting the size of the carton. Two sets of threaded columns 44 are threadedly connected to the mounting plate 43. The distance between the mounting plate 43 and the outer wall of the expansion box body 31 can be adjusted by rotating the threaded columns 44 to complete the installation and disassembly of the locking mechanism 4.
[0028] It should be noted that the material of the support base 1 can be plastic, such as polytetrafluoroethylene, nylon, polycarbonate, etc. The C-shaped folding plate 21 is a folding plate with self-expansion capability. The height of the C-shaped folding plate 21 is adjusted by automatically controlling the folding angle. Memory metal or other elastic materials can be used to achieve the function of compression and extension of the folding plate. This belongs to the prior art, and the detailed principles and structures will not be elaborated here.
[0029] See also Figure 3 A fixing groove 33 is formed at the top of the slide groove 32 , and the support frame 22 is fixedly connected in the fixing groove 33 .
[0030] Specifically, the lower end face of the support frame 22 is fixedly connected to the C-shaped folding plate 21, and the C-shaped folding plate 21 is always located in the slide groove 32. When the expansion box 31 moves up and down, the support frame 22 drives the C-shaped folding plate 21 to fill the inside of the slide groove 32 at the upper end of the support frame 22, and cooperates with the support frame 22 to enhance the impact resistance and compressive strength of the expansion box 31.
[0031] It should be noted that the support frame 22 and the fixing groove 33 are detachably connected.
[0032] See also Figure 4 The front and rear end surfaces of the expansion box 31 are both provided with mounting holes 34, and the driving rod 45 passes through the mounting hole 34 and extends to the slide groove 32 and is fixedly connected to the positioning plate 42. The inner wall of the slide groove 32 is provided with a receiving groove 35, and the size of the receiving groove 35 is adapted to the positioning plate 42.
[0033] Specifically, the elastic component 41 is installed between the expansion box 31 and the mounting plate 43. The driving rod 45 is pushed to drive the mounting plate 43 to compress the elastic component 41 and move the positioning plate 42 into the slide groove 32. After releasing the hand, the elastic force of the elastic component 41 pushes the mounting plate 43 to pull the positioning plate 42 to move into the accommodating groove 35, avoiding affecting the sliding of the upper end of the main box 23 in the slide groove 32.
[0034] It should be noted that two sets of handles are symmetrically installed on the upper end of the outer wall of the expansion box 31.
[0035] See also Figure 3 A guide groove 36 is formed on the side of the slide groove 32 away from the receiving groove 35 . The guide groove 36 has the same cross-sectional size as the positioning hole 24 and is matched in position.
[0036] Specifically, the driving rod 45 pushes the positioning plate 42 to move out of the accommodating groove 35 , pass through the positioning hole 24 , and enter the guide groove 36 , thereby fixing the height of the expansion box 31 and the main box 23 .
[0037] It should be noted that the length and width of the guide groove 36 and the positioning hole 24 are not less than the length and width of the positioning plate 42 .
[0038] See also Figure 4 and Figure 5 Two groups of positioning grooves 37 are symmetrically opened on the inner wall of the expansion box 31, and the guide grooves 36 are connected to the inside of the positioning grooves 37, and the guide grooves 36 and the positioning grooves 37 are distributed in a cross shape.
[0039] Specifically, the driving rod 45 drives the mounting plate 43 to compress the elastic component 41 and move the positioning plate 42 through the accommodating groove 35, the positioning hole 24 and the guide groove 36 in sequence, and finally moves to the inside of the expansion box 31, and rotates the driving rod 45 90 degrees to change the positioning plate 42 from horizontal placement to vertical placement. After releasing the hand, the deformed elastic component 41 produces elastic left action, pushing the mounting plate 43 to drive the driving rod 45 to move away from the positioning groove 37, and moving the positioning plate 42 into the positioning groove 37, thereby locking the expansion box 31 and the main box 23 to prevent the expansion box 31 from sliding with the main box 23 due to external force.
[0040] It should be noted that during transportation, the two sets of threaded columns 44 can be rotated, the mounting plate 43 moves outward, and the distance between the mounting plate 43 and the expansion box 31 increases. At this time, the driving rod 45 driven by the mounting plate 43 drives the positioning plate 42 to move further into the positioning groove 37, thereby enhancing the locking of the expansion box 31 and the main box 23.
[0041] See also Figure 5 , the positioning groove 37 is adapted to the positioning plate 42 .
[0042] Specifically, after the positioning plate 42 is rotated 90 degrees, it can be moved to the inside of the positioning plate 42 .
[0043] It should be noted that the positioning plate 42 is a cuboid, and its cross section is a rectangle.
[0044] See also Figure 2 The two groups of C-shaped folding plates 21 are symmetrically arranged with a gap in the middle.
[0045] Specifically, a gap is provided between the two groups of C-shaped folding plates 21 to prevent the C-shaped folding plates 21 from being deformed when compressed and stretched, thereby preventing the stability of the movement of the expansion box 31 during expansion.
[0046] Working principle: During installation, align the slide groove 32 with the C-shaped folding plate 21 and install it on the upper end of the main box body 23. At this time, the support frame 22 is installed in the fixing groove 33, and the rear end of the driving rod 45 of the outer wall sleeve mounting plate 43 is extended into the slide groove 32 through the mounting hole 34, and the positioning plate 42 is fixed to the end of the driving rod 45, and the threaded column 44 is rotated to adjust the distance between the mounting plate 43 and the outer wall of the expansion box body 31, and the locking mechanism 4 is externally mounted on the outer wall of the expansion box 3. At this time, the positioning plate 42 is completely located in the accommodating groove 35, and the items are placed in the main box body 23, and the height of the carton is adjusted. The expansion box body 31 is pulled upward by holding the handle. After reaching the appropriate height, the driving rod 45 is pushed to drive the mounting plate 43 to compress the elastic component 41 into the expansion box body 31 The expansion box 31 is moved to the outside by the elastic force, and the positioning plate 42 moves into the positioning groove 37 to lock the expansion box 31 and the main box 23. When the expansion box 31 moves upward, the support frame 22 in the fixed groove 33 drives the C-shaped folding plate 21 to move with the expansion box 31, fills the inside of the slide groove 32 at the upper end of the main box 23, and cooperates with the support frame 22 to improve the strength of the expansion box.
