DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0049] For users who use a workbench for disassembly, assembly, and maintenance, the workbench is usually filled with various tool boxes, hand tools, and other items. The tool boxes, hand tools, and other items are usually placed in the middle and front part of the workbench. This is because in the related art, the tool box usually includes two opposing boxes. When the tool box is not in use, the two boxes are placed in opposition. When the tool box is in use, the two boxes are opened and placed flat on the workbench with the openings of the two boxes facing upward. When the tool box is placed in the rear area of ​​the workbench, the tool box is relatively far away from the user. Because the openings of the boxes face upward, it is difficult for the user to quickly and clearly observe the various tools in the tool box due to the viewing angle, making it inconvenient for the user to access the tools. Moreover, when the user wants to access the tools in the tool box placed in the rear area of ​​the workbench, he usually leans forward and habitually pulls the tool box toward himself, which may cause objects located in the front of the tool box to fall, affecting the user's work efficiency. Therefore, for easy access and out of habit, users often place tool boxes, hand tools and other items in the middle and front part of the workbench, which makes the rear wall or tailgate area of ​​the workbench relatively empty, resulting in low space utilization at the rear wall or tailgate of the workbench.

[0050] The present application improves the opening direction of the tool box so that the opening of the tool box is tilted toward the user. As a result, when the tool box is placed at the rear of the workbench, the user can clearly see the tools stored in the tool box, making it easier for the user to access the tools. This can reasonably utilize the space on the workbench and improve the space utilization rate at the rear of the workbench against the wall or the tailgate.

[0051] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0052] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the tool box provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a first box body 100 and a second box body 200 that are placed in opposition. That is, when the tool box is not in use, the first box body 100 and the second box body 200 are placed in opposition. When the tool box is in use, the first box body 100 and the second box body 200 are opened and placed on a workbench for use.

[0053] In this embodiment, the first box body 100 has a first bottom surface 110 and a first mating surface 120. The first mating surface 120 is the surface where the circumferential outer edge of the open end of the first box body 100 is located. The second box body 200 has a second bottom surface 210 and a second mating surface 220. The second mating surface 220 is the surface of the second box body 200 that mates with the first mating surface 120. When the tool box is in an open state, that is, when the tool box is opened and placed on a workbench, the first bottom surface 110 is opposite to the workbench and placed on the workbench. The angle between the first mating surface 120 and the first bottom surface 110 is not less than 20° and not greater than 90°. The second bottom surface 210 is opposite to the workbench and placed on the workbench. The angle between the second mating surface 220 and the second bottom surface 210 is not less than 20° and not greater than 90°. That is to say, when the tool box is in the open position, the opening of the tool box is tilted toward the user, so that when the tool box is placed at the back of the workbench, the user can clearly observe the various tools in the tool box, which is convenient for the user to take out the tools; and when the tool box is in the open position, the first bottom surface 110 of the tool box serves as a support surface for the first box body 100, which is placed on the workbench and contacts the workbench to support the first box body 100, and the first mating surface 120 is tilted relative to the first bottom surface 110. Similarly, the second bottom surface 210 of the tool box serves as a support surface for the second box body 200, which is placed on the workbench and contacts the workbench The second mating surface 220 is inclined relative to the second bottom surface 210, which is compared with the tool box with a flat rectangular structure in the related art. The internal space of the first box body 100 and the second box body 200 is larger, which can be used for vertical placement of some tools such as screwdrivers or for tilted placement of the liner (the tilted placement of the liner can make the tool placement surface of the liner tilted at a certain angle). Therefore, when the tool box provided in the embodiment of the present application is placed at the rear of the workbench, it is convenient for the user to observe the various tools in the tool box at a glance, thereby making it convenient for the user to take out the tools when the tool box is placed at the rear of the workbench.

[0054] The tool box provided in this embodiment is suitable for being placed at the rear of a workbench. When the tool box is placed at the rear of the workbench, the user can clearly see the various tools in the tool box, which is convenient. The tool box provided in this embodiment of the application can reasonably utilize the space of the workbench and improve the space utilization rate at the rear of the workbench against the wall or the tailgate.

[0055] It should be noted that the table top mentioned in the embodiment of the present application can be a table top of a workbench or other table tops, as long as it can place a tool box, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0056] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the toolbox has a first side 10 and a second side 20 that oppose each other. The first body 100 and the second body 200 are rotatably connected at the first side 10. When the toolbox is in the open position, the openings of the first body 100 and the second body 200 face the same direction. That is, when the toolbox is in the open position, the openings of the first body 100 and the second body 200 are both tilted toward the user, making it easier for the user to access the tools within the toolbox. Furthermore, the first body 100 and the second body 200 are rotatably connected at the first side 10. When the toolbox is in the open position, the openings of the first body 100 and the second body 200 face the same direction. That is, when the toolbox is in the open position, the first side 10 of the first body 100 and the second side 20 of the second body 200 face each other, and the first body 100 and the second body 200 are aligned side by side.

[0057] In some embodiments of the present application, the first box body 100 further includes a first rear side surface 140, which is located behind the opening side of the first box body 100, adjacent to the first bottom surface 110, and perpendicular to the first bottom surface 110. The second box body 200 further includes a second rear side surface 240, which is located behind the opening side of the second box body 200, adjacent to the second bottom surface 210, and perpendicular to the second bottom surface 210. This arrangement makes the tool box suitable for placement at the rear of the workbench against a wall or a rear baffle. When the tool box is in the open position, the first bottom surface 110 and the second bottom surface 210 of the tool box are placed on the workbench surface, and the first rear side surface 140 and the second rear side surface 240 of the tool box are attached to the rear wall of the workbench or the baffle of the rear baffle of the workbench. This arrangement can reasonably utilize the space at the rear of the workbench against the wall or the rear baffle, thereby improving the utilization rate of the space at the rear of the workbench.

[0058] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the tool box has a rectangular parallelepiped structure, and the first bottom surface 110, the second bottom surface 210, the first rear side surface 140, and the second rear side surface 240 are four sides located between the first side surface 10 and the second side surface 20, and the first side surface 10 and the second side surface 20 are square. The angle between the first mating surface 120 and the first bottom surface 110 is 45°, and the angle between the second mating surface 220 and the first bottom surface 110 is 45°. In other words, the joining line of the first mating surface 120 and the second mating surface 220 on the first side surface 10 is the diagonal line of the first side surface 10, and the joining line of the first mating surface 120 and the second mating surface 220 on the second side surface 20 is the diagonal line of the second side surface 20. This arrangement makes the tool box more beautiful and regular in appearance, and is structurally convenient for processing and assembly. In addition, the tool box with a rectangular parallelepiped structure facilitates stacking of multiple tool boxes.

[0059] In other embodiments of the present application, the tool box may have other structures besides a rectangular parallelepiped structure, such as Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, as long as the first bottom surface 110 and the second bottom surface 210 are placed on the table, the opening of the first box body 100 and the opening of the second box body 200 face the user, so that the tool box can be placed at the back of the workbench for easy access to tools.

[0060] It should be noted that Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 8 and Figure 9 Only the first box body 100 and the second box body 200 are shown, and the rotation connection structure, locking mechanism, etc. of the first box body 100 and the second box body 200 are not shown.

[0061] In some embodiments of the present application, the second side surface 20 is provided with a locking structure 300, and the locking structure 300 is configured to lock the first box body 100 and the second box body 200 together when the tool box is in a buckled state. Exemplarily, the locking structure 300 in the embodiment of the present application can be a locking structure 300 of a locking tool box in the related art, for example, a buckle is provided on the second side surface 20 of the first box body 100, and a slot is provided on the second side surface 20 of the second box body 200, and the buckle and the slot are engaged or slidably engaged to lock the first box body 100 and the second box body 200 together. For another example, a buckle is provided on the second side surface 20 of the first box body 100, and a latching protrusion is provided on the second side surface 20 of the second box body 200, and the buckle and the latching protrusion are engaged to lock the first box body 100 and the second box body 200 together.

[0062] like Figure 1 As shown, to facilitate the orderly placement and access of tools, both the first and second housings 100 and 200 are provided with tool placement areas. For example, the first housing 100 is provided with a first lining 130, which is provided with a tool placement area for at least one tool; the second housing 200 is provided with a second lining 230, which is provided with a tool placement area for at least one tool. The configuration of the first and second linings 130 and 230 allows the tool box to be configured to accommodate the desired tool type. In other words, the outer shell of the same tool box can be configured with different linings to accommodate different tool sets, thereby providing greater diversity and flexibility in the tool sets contained within the tool box.

[0063] Exemplarily, the tool placement positions of the first inner lining 130 include a handle placement position 151 for placing the screwdriver handle 410 and a screwdriver head 420 placement position for placing the screwdriver head 420, and there are multiple screwdriver head 420 placement positions. Multiple steps 152 are provided in the first inner lining 130. The handle placement position 151 is located on the front side of the multiple steps 152, and the side of the first mating surface 120 close to the first bottom surface 110 is the front side, that is, the side close to the user is the front side. The multiple screwdriver head 420 placement positions are arranged in multiple rows and columns, and the number of rows of screwdriver head 420 placement positions is the same as the number of steps 152. A row of screwdriver head 420 placement positions is provided on one step 152, and the screwdriver head 420 placement positions are configured to vertically place the screwdriver head 420. This setting gradually raises the screwdriver head 420 for easy access, and the vertically placed screwdriver is easy for the user to observe.

[0064] In some embodiments of the present application, the tool placement area of ​​the first liner 130 further includes a magnetic plate placement area 153 for placing a magnetic positioning plate 470. The magnetic plate placement area 153 is a placement groove parallel to the first bottom surface 110 and is located in front of the tool handle placement area 151. In other words, the magnetic plate placement area 153 is closer to the first bottom surface 110. This position has a deeper depth extending from the first mating surface 120 to the first rear side surface 140, which is suitable for accommodating a larger magnetic plate placement area 153 and can reasonably utilize the space of the first box body 100. On the one hand, it is convenient to access and store the magnetic positioning plate 470. On the other hand, the magnetic plate placement area 153 does not affect the arrangement of other placement areas.

[0065] Please continue reading Figure 1In some embodiments of the present application, the second inner liner 230 is installed at an angle within the second box body 200. The angle of inclination of the second inner liner 230 relative to the second bottom surface 210 is the same as the angle of inclination of the second mating surface 220 relative to the second bottom surface 210. The tool placement areas of the second inner liner 230 include a placement area for a pry bar 430, a placement area for a pry pick 440, a placement area for an extended soft rod 450, and a placement area for tweezers 460. The second inner liner 230 is tilted so that the tools placed on it are also relatively tilted, making it easier for the user to observe and access the tools within the second box body 200.

[0066] Exemplarily, the tool placement position of the second lining 230 may further include a screen suction cup 480 .
