For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0045] like Figures 1 to 11 As shown, a foldable storage box 100 of a preferred embodiment of the utility model comprises: a box body 1 and a cover plate 2; the box body 1 comprises a bottom plate 3 and a side panel 4, the side panel 4 comprises a plurality of side panels 5 and a plurality of pillars 6, the plurality of side panels 5 are arranged in sequence along the top side edge of the bottom plate 3, and a pillar 6 is connected between each adjacent two side panels 5; the bottom ends of the side panels 5 are rotatably connected to the bottom plate 3; plug blocks 51 are respectively provided on both sides of the side panels 5, the plug blocks 51 extend in the vertical direction, and slide grooves 61 are respectively provided on both sides of the pillars 6, the slide grooves 61 penetrate the bottom end surfaces of the pillars 6, and the plug blocks 51 are slidably inserted in the slide grooves 61 to realize the sliding connection between the pillars 6 and the side panels 5 on both sides; the bottom ends of the pillars 6 are engaged and snap-fitted with the bottom plate 3; the cover plate 2 is detachably covered on the top opening of the box body.

[0046] Based on the above technical solution, when the foldable storage box 100 is not needed, the cover plate 2 is separated from the box body 1, and then the plug block 51 is slid into the slide groove 61 to separate the pillar 6 and the side plate 5, and the side plate 5 is rotated inward, and then the slide groove 61 on either side of each pillar 6 is slidably connected to the plug block 51 of the side plate 5. The specific state after folding can be referred to in the attached Figure 6 When the pillar 6 is removed, the sliding connection between the pillar 6 and one of the side panels 5 can be retained, which can effectively prevent the pillar 6 from being lost when the storage box is used next time, and can effectively reduce the space occupied by the storage box when it is idle. In addition, the sliding between the pillar 6 and the side panel 5 is convenient for multiple assembly and disassembly without damaging the connection part, thereby extending the service life.

[0047] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, preferably, part of the side panels 5 are the first side panels 52, and the remaining side panels 5 are the second side panels 53, and the first side panels 52 and the second side panels 53 are arranged alternately at intervals along the edge of the bottom panel 3; wherein, the plug blocks 51 on the first side panel 52 and the second side panel 53 are respectively the first plug block 521 and the second plug block 523, and the slide groove that cooperates with the second plug block 523 for sliding insertion is the second slide groove (not marked in the figure), and the slide groove 61 on the pillar 6 that cooperates with the first plug block 521 for sliding insertion is the first slide groove 64; the first plug block 521 includes a plurality of protrusions that are arranged at intervals from top to bottom, and a plurality of sockets 522 that are arranged one by one corresponding to each protrusion are opened on one side of the first side panel 52 corresponding to the first slide groove 64, and the socket 522 is connected to the first slide groove 64, and the second plug block 523 and the second slide groove can rotate relative to each other.

[0048] Based on the above scheme, when the box body is folded, each pillar 6 is first removed separately. Taking one of the pillars 6 as an example, the removal process of the pillar 6 is: first, the pillar 6 is slid upward for a distance relative to each side panel 5, and when it slides upward to the point where the first plug block 521 corresponds to the socket 522, the first plug block 521 is removed outward along the socket 522, so that the first plug block 521 is separated from the pillar 6, that is, the pillar 6 is removed from the first side panel. At this time, the pillar 6 and the plug block on the other side of the second side still maintain a sliding and rotating relationship, that is, the pillar 6 is still rotated and slidably connected to the second side panel 53; after the separation work between each pillar 6 and the first side panel 52 is completed, the pillar 6 is rotated, and the first side panel 52, the second side panel 53 and the pillars 6 on both sides are rotated relative to the bottom panel 3. For details of the state after folding, please refer to the attached figure. Figure 6When the box is opened, first rotate the first side panels 52, the second side panels 53 together with the pillars 6 on both sides away from the bottom panel 3, and then connect each pillar 6 to the adjacent first side panel 52. Taking one of the pillars 6 as an example, the installation process of the pillar 6 is as follows: first slide the pillar 6 upward for a distance relative to the second side panel 53, insert the first plug 521 from the socket 522, and then slide the pillar 6 downward, that is, the first plug 521 slides in the first slide groove 64. At this time, the first plug 521 is misaligned with the socket 522 and will not fall off, so that the sliding connection between the pillar 6 and the first side panel 52 is realized. For details of the state after opening, please refer to Figure 5 As shown, since it is not necessary to align the bottom of the support 6 with the first side plate 52 and the second side plate 53 at the same time and then slide them together, the difficulty of aligning the support 6, the first side plate 52 and the second side plate 53 is reduced, thereby improving the user experience.
