Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of product packaging frame technology, specifically to a foldable product frame. Background Art

[0002] In the transportation sector, small, scattered products need to be centrally loaded into product boxes or frames before transport. This ensures that products are categorized and stored properly, reducing compression and impact during transport and thus improving product protection. Currently, fixed product frames are used as carriers for product storage and transport. However, fixed product frames are inconvenient to store; their fixed empty frame structure occupies a large amount of space and cannot be effectively folded to reduce space usage. Furthermore, the production and transportation of fixed product frames present significant challenges. When fixed product frames are produced and shipped, the limitations of their structure result in low shipment quantities. When demand for product frames is high, more vehicles may need to be allocated specifically for transporting them, increasing transportation costs. Some have proposed folding frame structures to reduce space usage by folding the product frames. However, traditional folding frame structures fold the side panels inwards, and the height of the side panels is less than or equal to half the width of the corresponding base plate, thus limiting the depth of the product frame and reducing its volume.

[0003] It is evident that the current folding frame structure still has room for improvement and should be optimized to increase its volume. Therefore, a more reasonable technical solution needs to be proposed to solve the technical problems existing in the current technology. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome at least one of the aforementioned defects, this utility model proposes a foldable product frame. By setting a new folding structure, it ensures that the product frame forms a flat structure after folding, while the volume is not limited by the bottom plate of the product frame, thereby increasing the volume of the product frame.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the product frame disclosed in this utility model can adopt the following technical solution:

[0006] A foldable product frame includes first side panels arranged opposite each other, a bottom plate disposed between the first side panels and the bottom plate being hinged to one of the first side panels and overlapping with the other first side panel; a first side edge of the first side panel forms a side edge structure connecting to a second side panel, a first side edge of the second side panel is hinged to the side edge structure and can be deflected to flatly fit the first side panel, and a second side edge of the second side panel is hinged to the second side edge of the opposite first side panel.

[0007] The product frame disclosed above can have its base plate folded upwards and flattened to fit the first side plate, and the second side plate folded horizontally and then flattened to fit the first side plate. In this way, the entire product frame can be folded into a flat structure, which reduces the space occupied by the product frame as a whole. At the same time, the height of the side plates is not limited by the base plate, and the volume of the product frame can be greatly increased.

[0008] Furthermore, the side edge structure connects the first side panel and the second side panel, allowing the second side panel to be folded and fitted to the first side panel. The side edge structure can be constructed in various forms, and its structure is not limited to a single one. Here, we optimize and propose one feasible option: the side edge structure includes a bent structure perpendicular to the surface of the first side panel and extending inwards towards the product frame, with the height of the bent structure greater than the thickness of the second side panel. When using the above solution, the side edge structure can be constructed as a continuous structure.

[0009] Furthermore, the mating structure between the first and second side plates can adopt various schemes, and its structure is not limited to a single one. Here, we optimize and propose one feasible option: a hinge structure is formed between the first and second side plates. The hinge structure includes several hinge slots and corresponding hinge shafts. The hinge slots and hinge shafts are arranged along the sides of the first and second side plates. When adopting the above scheme, the hinge slots can be set on the first side plate, and the hinge shafts can be set on the second side plate. The hinge shafts can be snapped into the hinge slots to achieve mating; similarly, the hinge shafts can also be removed from the hinge slots to achieve disassembly.

[0010] Furthermore, the deflection fit structure between the first and second side plates should be restricted to ensure the structural stability of the final product frame. This restriction can be achieved through various methods, and the structure is not uniquely limited. Here, we propose one feasible option: Limiting blocks are provided on the first side edges of the hinged joint between the first and second side plates. When the first and second side plates deflect to a perpendicular position, the limiting blocks between them engage and tighten. In this solution, the limiting blocks are integrally formed with either the first or second side plate, and vertical ribs are also provided at the limiting blocks to enhance their stability.

[0011] Furthermore, the connection and engagement between the base plate and the first side plate can be achieved through various methods, and its structure is not limited to a single one. Here, we optimize and propose one feasible option: the base plate is hinged to one of the first side plates via a hinge structure, and the opposite first side plate has several overlapping blocks that correspond to and engage with the base plate. When the above solution is adopted, the base plate can be folded downwards and engage with the two first side plates to maintain the overall shape of the product frame.

[0012] Furthermore, the base plate and the second side plate are also connected to each other, thereby enhancing the overall structural strength of the product frame. The specific connection can be achieved through various methods, and the structure is not limited to a single one. Here, we optimize and propose one feasible option: the second side plate is provided with several overlapping blocks that overlap and cooperate with the base plate. When the above solution is adopted, the overlapping blocks of the second side plate can support the base plate.

[0013] Furthermore, the base plate and side plates cooperate to form a frame. To improve the stability of the frame, the frame structure can be optimized and improved. The structure is not limited to a single design; one feasible option is proposed here: the side edge of the base plate forms a fastening structure with the overlapping block. The fastening structure includes a fastening groove and a fastening claw. When adopting the above solution, the fastening groove can be set on the overlapping block, and the fastening claw can be set on the side edge of the base plate. When the base plate is folded down and cooperates with the overlapping block, the fastening claw can engage with the fastening groove.

[0014] Furthermore, to facilitate the handling of products stored in the product frame, the product frame structure is improved: a handle structure is provided on the first side panel and / or the second side panel. When adopting the above solution, the handle structure can be directly provided with an opening on the first side panel and / or the second side panel, or the handle can be connected to the first and / or the second side panel using fasteners.

[0015] Furthermore, to improve the strength of the product frame, the structure of the first and second side panels is optimized: the outer surfaces of the first and second side panels are formed with a crisscrossing reinforcing rib structure. When the above solution is adopted, the reinforcing rib structure is integrally formed with the first and second side panels.

[0016] Furthermore, the base plate is reinforced to improve the overall strength of the product frame and enhance the ease of flipping the base plate. This can be achieved through various solutions, and the structure is not limited to a single one. Here, we optimize and propose one feasible option: the lower surface of the base plate is provided with several reinforcing ribs, and the base plate is also provided with several lifting holes.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, some of the beneficial effects of the technical solution disclosed in this utility model include:

[0018] By adjusting and optimizing the structure of the first and second side panels, the second side panel can be folded up to form a flat structure that fits snugly against the first side panel, thus reducing the space occupied when storing the product frame. The product frame can be unfolded when needed. Furthermore, the hinged structure of the first and second side panels in the longitudinal direction does not limit the volume of the product frame due to the base plate, thus providing more storage space.
