[0023] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present utility model clearer, the following will further elaborate on the present utility model in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model.

[0024] Referring to Figures 1-5 , a foldable storage rack includes two symmetrically arranged support rods 1 and two guardrails 5 vertically arranged on the adjacent side walls of the two support rods 1. The lower ends of one side of the two support rods 1 are hinged to the bottom plate 2 through hinges, and the bottom ends of the two support rods 1 are fixedly installed with mounting seats 3. Slots are provided on one side of the two support rods 1, and clamping blocks 4 adapted to the slots are fixedly connected to one side of the two bottom plates 2. Positioning components connected to the adjacent clamping blocks 4 are respectively arranged on the mutually remote sides of the two support rods 1. Slots are provided on the mutually remote sides of the two clamping blocks 4. Specifically, by holding the pull block 12 and pulling the pull rod 10 to separate one end thereof from the slot, the bottom plate 2 is folded into a vertical state so that the clamping block 4 is engaged with the slot, and the pull block 12 is released to enable the spring 11 to elastically recover and push the limiting plate 9 to drive the pull rod 10 to return to its position, and one end thereof is inserted into the slot to position the clamping block 4 and the bottom plate 2, thereby facilitating the folding and positioning of the bottom plate 2 by personnel, improving the utilization space, reducing the operation burden of personnel, and enhancing the practicality of the storage rack.

[0025] Further, the positioning component includes a mounting shell 8 provided on one side of the support rod 1. The side of the mounting shell 8 close to the support rod 1 is open. The surface of the mounting shell 8 at one side and adjacent to the side wall of the support rod 1 is fixedly connected. A limiting plate 9 is provided inside the mounting shell 8. A pull rod 10 is sleeved inside the limiting plate 9. One end of the pull rod 10 penetrates through the side wall of the support rod 1 and extends into the card slot. The other end of the pull rod 10 penetrates through the side wall of the mounting shell 8 and is fixedly connected with a pull block 12. Specifically, through the setting of the pull block 12, the pull block 12 can facilitate a person to hold the pull block 12 and pull the pull rod 10 to move, bringing convenience to the operation of the person.

[0026] Further, the positioning component further includes a spring 11 provided in the mounting shell 8. The inside of the spring 11 is sleeved with the outside of the pull rod 10. The two ends of the spring 11 are respectively fixedly connected with one side of the limiting plate 9 and the inner wall of one side of the mounting shell 8. Specifically, through the setting of the spring 11, a person can hold the pull block 12 and pull the pull rod 10 to move. The pull rod 10 then drives the limiting plate 9 to move and squeezes the spring 11. At this time, one end of the pull rod 10 is separated from the inside of the card slot. The person folds the bottom plate 2 into a vertical state through the hinge, so that the clamping block 4 is clamped with the card slot. Then, the pull block 12 is released, and the spring 11 loses the extrusion force and drives the limiting plate 9 to drive the pull rod 10 to return under the elastic recovery. One end of the pull rod 10 then inserts into the slot on one side of the clamping block 4, thereby positioning the clamping block 4 and the bottom plate 2, thus quickly and conveniently folding the bottom plate 2 by the person, improving the utilization space, reducing the operation burden of the person, and improving the practicability of the storage rack.

[0027] Further, limiting grooves are respectively opened on the outer walls of the two mounting shells 8 away from the support rod 1. Circular grooves are respectively opened on the sides of the two pull blocks 12 close to the mounting shell 8. A limiting block 14 adapted to the limiting groove is provided on one side of the mounting shell 8. One side of the limiting block 14 is fixedly connected with an insertion rod 13 adapted to the circular groove. Specifically, through the setting of the insertion rod 13, when a person pulls the pull block 12 to move, the person can move the limiting block 14 in the limiting groove and drive the insertion rod 13 to move, so that one end of the insertion rod 13 moves to a position horizontally aligned with the circular groove. Then, when the pull block 12 is released, one end of the insertion rod 13 will abut against the inside of the circular groove on one side of the pull block 12, thereby positioning the pull block 12 and preventing the pull rod 10 from returning and inserting into the card slot. Through the above operations, it is convenient for a person to free a hand to fold the bottom plate 2 without the person continuously pulling the pull block 12, bringing convenience to the person's operation of folding the storage rack.

[0028] Further, through grooves are linearly arranged in the middle of the tops of the two bottom plates 2. Specifically, through the setting of the through grooves, when a person places some water-bearing objects, the water body can drip through the through grooves and will not accumulate on the bottom plate 2 to cause residues, avoiding subsequent pollution of the water body and affecting the placement effect of the bottom plate 2.

[0029] Furthermore, on one side of the bottom of each of the two bottom plates 2, there are symmetrically and fixedly installed ear seats 7, and hooks 6 are rotatably connected in a plurality of the ear seats 7. Specifically, through the arrangement of the ear seats 7 and the hooks 6, the hooks 6 can facilitate people to hang objects such as towels on the hooks 6. And through the ear seats 7, when the bottom plate 2 is folded into a vertical state, the hooks 6 can also maintain a vertical state to hang objects, improving the practicability of the storage rack.

[0030] In summary:

[0031] By holding the pull block 12 and pulling the pull rod 10 to move, the pull rod 10 will drive the limit plate 9 to move and compress the spring 11. At this time, one end of the pull rod 10 is separated from the card slot. The person folds the bottom plate 2 into a vertical state through the hinge, so that the card block 4 is engaged with the card slot. Then, release the pull block 12 so that the spring 11 loses the extrusion force and drives the limit plate 9 to drive the pull rod 10 to return under the elastic recovery. One end of the pull rod 10 is then inserted into the slot on one side of the card block 4 to position the card block 4 and the bottom plate 2, thus quickly and conveniently folding the bottom plate 2 by the person, improving the utilization space, reducing the operation burden of the person, and improving the practicability of the storage rack.
