[0028] As Figures 1 to 7 , this embodiment discloses a foldable square tube assembly and a foldable container house. The foldable container house includes a foldable square tube assembly, a bottom frame 40, a top frame 50, and a plurality of wall panels 60 provided at both left and right ends between the bottom frame 40 and the top frame 50;
[0029] The bottom frame 40 and the wall panel 60 are foldably connected through the foldable square tube assembly;
[0030] The top frame 50 and the wall panel 60 are foldably connected through the foldable square tube assembly;
[0031] The two wall panels 60 along the vertical direction are foldably connected through the foldable square tube assembly;
[0032] The folding square pipe assembly includes a first square pipe 10, a second square pipe 20, and a hinge 30 connected between the first square pipe 10 and the second square pipe 20. The first square pipe 10 is provided with a protruding portion 11, and the second square pipe 20 is provided with a recessed portion 21 that cooperates with the protruding portion 11. One end of the first square pipe 10 away from the protruding portion 11 is provided with a first edge blocking portion 12, and one end of the second square pipe 20 away from the recessed portion 21 is provided with a second edge blocking portion 22.
[0033] In the folding container house of this embodiment, the bottom frame 40 and the wall panel 60 are foldably connected through the folding square pipe assembly, the top frame 50 and the wall panel 60 are foldably connected through the folding square pipe assembly, and the two wall panels 60 along the vertical direction are foldably connected through the folding square pipe assembly. Before shipping, it can be folded into the state as shown in Figure 3 shown, which can effectively reduce the occupied space of the folding container house along the vertical direction and facilitate truck transportation.
[0034] Moreover, using the folding square pipe assembly of this embodiment as the folding structure, the folding square pipe assembly includes a first square pipe 10, a second square pipe 20 and a hinge 30. When the first square pipe 10 rotates through the hinge 30 and is stacked vertically with the second square pipe 20, or the second square pipe 20 rotates through the hinge 30 and is stacked vertically with the first square pipe 10, the protruding portion 11 of the first square pipe 10 can be inserted into the recessed portion 21 of the second square pipe 20, thereby preventing the first square pipe 10 and the second square pipe 20 from being displaced in the horizontal direction, and the horizontal locking can be completed by using its own structure without using locking parts such as lock tongues, which simplifies the structure.
[0035] Furthermore, please refer to Figure 2 , the protruding portion 11 has a trapezoidal structure with a smaller upper part and a larger lower part. After the first square pipe 10 and the second square pipe 20 are stacked vertically, the recessed portion 21 of the second square pipe 20 also has a trapezoidal structure with a smaller upper part and a larger lower part. Through such a structural setting, when the first square pipe 10 or the second square pipe 20 rotates, the protruding portion 11 can be more easily inserted into the recessed portion 21 of the second square pipe 20, and the structure is ingenious.
[0036] Furthermore, the first edge blocking portion 12 and the second edge blocking portion 22 are both provided with a plurality of mounting holes (not shown). Bolts and other workpieces can be used to pass the bolts through the mounting holes and then fix them to the bottom frame 40, the top frame 50 or the wall panel 60, so that the first edge blocking portion 12 and the second edge blocking portion 22 can be fixedly connected to the bottom frame 40, the top frame 50 or the wall panel 60 respectively.
[0037] Furthermore, please refer to Figure 7, the bottom frame 40 of this embodiment includes three vertical beams 41 arranged side by side in the vertical direction and three horizontal beams 42 arranged side by side in the horizontal direction. The three vertical beams 41 and the three horizontal beams 42 form four laying areas, and a bottom plate 43 is laid on each laying area. Dividing the laying area into four parts can, on the one hand, modularly lay the bottom plate 43, reduce the area of each bottom plate 43, and is more conducive to freight transportation. By using the three vertical beams 41 and the three horizontal beams 42 as the bottom support of the four bottom plates 43, the problem that the center of the bottom plate 43 is easily depressed by heavy objects due to its too large volume can be avoided. The bottom plate 43 can be made of a cement board.
[0038] Furthermore, the top frame 50 includes a frame 51 and a top plate 52 arranged inside the frame 51. The top plate 52 can be made of a heat-insulating board.
[0039] Furthermore, the folding container house further includes a front plate 80 and a rear plate 90 detachably fixed to the front and rear ends between the bottom frame 40 and the top frame 50. A front door 81 and a front window 82 are provided on the front plate 80, and a rear door 91 and a rear window 92 are provided on the rear plate 90. The front plate 80 and the rear plate 90 can be fixed between the bottom frame 40 and the top frame 50 by tools such as bolts. The front plate 80 and the rear plate 90 are designed to be detachable structures. Before freight transportation, the front plate 80 and the rear plate 90 can be removed first, and then the folding container house can be folded into the state as shown in Figure 3 After arriving at the destination and unloading the goods, the folding container house can be extended into the state as shown in Figure 4 Then, the front plate 80 and the rear plate 90 are assembled. Due to the vertical support of the front plate 80 and the rear plate 90, the folding square tube assembly will not automatically fold. Therefore, there is no need to use other locking parts to lock and fix the extension device of the folding square tube assembly, which simplifies the structure.
