[0025] In the embodiment, the inner end of the sliding rod 41 is fixedly connected with a connecting rod 46, and a guide through hole 47 matched with the connecting rod 46 is formed in the positioning rod 43; the outer end of the connecting rod 46 is fixedly connected with the inner end of the sliding rod 41, the inner end of the connecting rod 46 is provided with a limiting block 48, and a limiting hole 49 for clamping the limiting block 48 is formed in the inner wall of the moving groove 44. A screw hole is formed in the limiting block 48, an external thread is formed in the inner end of the connecting rod 46, and the inner end of the connecting rod 46 is threadedly connected with the screw hole of the limiting block 48 through the external thread.

[0026] In the embodiment, two limiting holes 49 are formed in the inner wall of the moving groove 44, and the two limiting holes 49 are arranged in the upward and downward directions.

[0027] The cross-sectional shape of the limiting block 48 can be a regular polygon (such as a regular hexagon) or other shapes, and in the embodiment, the limiting block 48 is a regular hexagon.

[0028] The positioning rod 43 is provided with a receiving groove 411 on one side close to the limiting block 48, which can accommodate the limiting block 48 and is communicated with the inner end of the guide through hole 47. When the positioning rod 43 needs to be moved, the handle 42, the sliding rod 41 and the connecting rod are pulled outward, so that the limiting block 48 is in the receiving groove 411 and does not hinder the subsequent sliding of the positioning rod 43 in the moving groove 44, and the sliding of the positioning rod 43 in the moving groove 44 is smoother. The shape and size of the receiving groove 411 are matched with the limiting block 48, that is, the receiving groove 411 is a regular hexagon.

[0029] The handle 42 is provided with a protective sleeve 412 on the outer contour, and the protective sleeve 412 is provided with anti-skid lines on the outer contour.

[0030] The use method of the toy block storage box is briefly described as follows:

[0031] After the toy blocks (such as snowflake blocks) are stored by the children, the parents close the protective cover 2 hinged on the support 1, adjust the positioning mechanism 4 in the sliding groove 3, and then the positioning mechanism 4 is clamped and positioned with the positioning hole 5 on the support 1. At this time, the lower end of the positioning rod 43 extends from the opening 410 at the lower end of the moving groove 44 and is embedded in the positioning hole 5, the limiting block 48 is clamped with the limiting hole 49 on the lower side, and the lower end of the positioning rod 43 is prevented from being separated from the positioning hole 5, so that the protective cover 2 remains in the closed state.

[0032] When the protective cover 2 needs to be opened, the parents pull the handle 42, the sliding rod 41 and the connecting rod 46 outward, so that the limiting block 48 is withdrawn from the limiting hole 49 on the lower side and is in the receiving groove 411. Then the handle 42, the sliding rod 41, the connecting rod 46 and the positioning rod 43 are slid upward together, the lower end of the positioning rod 43 is withdrawn from the positioning hole 5, and the positioning rod 43 is pressed against the return spring 45. When the handle 42, the sliding rod 41, the connecting rod 46 and the positioning rod 43 are slid upward together to a predetermined position (at this time, the sliding rod 41 reaches the upper end of the sliding groove 3), the limiting block 48 is aligned with the limiting hole 49 on the upper side, and the handle 42, the sliding rod 41 and the connecting rod 46 are pushed inward, so that the limiting block 48 is clamped with the limiting hole 49 on the upper side, the position of the positioning rod 43 is limited, and the lower end of the positioning rod 43 cannot extend from the opening 410 at the lower end of the moving groove 44 (when the lower end of the positioning rod extends from the opening at the lower end of the moving groove, it will hinder the operation of closing the protective cover next time). At this time, the positioning rod 43 is no longer clamped with the positioning hole 5, and then the support 1 and the protective cover 2 can be unfolded, and then the children can play the toy blocks (such as snowflake blocks).

[0033] After the child stops playing with the blocks (such as the snowflake blocks), the blocks are stored on the support 1 under the guidance of the parent, and after the storage of the blocks is completed, the parent closes the protective cover 2; then the parent can pull the handle 42, the sliding rod 41 and the connecting rod 46 outward, so that the limiting block 48 exits from the upper limiting hole 49 and is located in the accommodating groove 411; then the handle 42, the sliding rod 41, the connecting rod 46 and the positioning rod 43 are slid downward together under the extension of the reset spring 45, the lower end of the positioning rod 43 extends from the opening 410 at the lower end of the moving slot 44 and is embedded in the positioning hole 5, so that the lower end of the positioning rod 43 is clamped and matched with the positioning hole 5, at this time the limiting block 48 is aligned with the lower limiting hole 49, then the handle 42, the sliding rod 41 and the connecting rod 46 are pushed inward again, so that the limiting block 48 is clamped with the lower limiting hole 49, the position of the positioning rod 43 is limited, and the protective cover 2 is positioned on the support 1.

[0034] In addition, when the reset spring 45 needs to be replaced due to damage, the handle 42 can be moved outward first to move the limiting block 48 on the connecting rod 46 into the accommodating groove 411; then the handle 42 is rotated to drive the sliding rod 41 and the connecting rod 46 to rotate together, because the limiting block 48 is clamped in the regular hexagonal accommodating groove 411, when the connecting rod 46 rotates, the screw hole of the limiting block 48 is separated from the external thread at the inner end of the connecting rod 46, at this time the connecting rod 46 and the sliding rod 41 can be disassembled; then the positioning rod 43 and the reset spring 45 are taken out from the opening 410 at the lower end of the moving slot 44, and then the reset spring 45 can be replaced, thereby improving the replacement efficiency of the reset spring 45.
