[0002] Due to its relatively large space, storage boxes have high space requirements during transportation and their own storage. Especially during long-distance transportation, the freight is calculated based on the space occupied by the storage box. How to reduce the space occupied by the storage box and its storage is the research object of those skilled in the art.

[0003] Chinese Utility Model Patent No. 202021167229.1 discloses a folding storage box that is convenient for disassembly and assembly, including a lower bottom plate and an upper cover plate. At the four corners between the lower bottom plate and the upper cover plate, a cuboid corner beam with the same length and width is installed at each corner. A side telescopic plate is installed between the lower bottom plate, the corner beam, and the upper cover plate. At the four corners below the upper cover plate, a permanent magnet column is fixed at each corner. A permanent magnet ring is embedded at the top of each corner beam. A row of nested columns is arranged on each of the adjacent two surfaces of the corner beam; the side telescopic plate includes a limiting frame with through slots at both the upper and lower ends and in the shape of a "day" character and an I-beam in the shape of a "worker" character. The upper and lower ends of the I-beam are embedded in the "day" character slots of the limiting frame. This folding storage box that is convenient for disassembly and assembly mainly relies on permanent magnet columns to complete the connection of various components, but it cannot achieve the stacked installation between two folding storage boxes and is not conducive to long-distance transportation.
