[0025] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments. Example 1

[0026] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 4As shown, an ingeniously designed and easy-to-use adjustable shelf is presented here. The shelf consists of several main parts, including a base 1, a first mounting bracket 2, and a first rotating shelf 4. First, the first mounting bracket 2 is placed at the bottom of the base 1, close to the building. To ensure its stability, the end face of the first mounting bracket 2 is designed with multiple mounting holes, through which connectors can be used to securely fix the first mounting bracket 2 to the appropriate position on the building.

[0027] Support frames 3 are installed on both sides of the upper end of the base 1. These two support frames 3 not only provide support but also offer additional stability to the shelf. A first rotating shelf 4 is mounted on top of each of the two support frames 3. This rotating shelf has a clever design, comprising side plates 41, fasteners 42, and shelf panels. The inner ends of the two support frames 3 are connected to the side plates 41 via fasteners 42, and a first shelf panel 43 and a second shelf panel 44 are arranged parallel to each other between the two side plates 41. By rotating the side plates 41 and the fasteners 42, the tilt angle of the first shelf panel 43 and the second shelf panel 44 can be easily adjusted to suit different usage needs.

[0028] One of the support frames 3 has a specially designed connector 5 at its bottom, which connects to the second rotating shelf 7 via a rotating head 6. The structure of the second rotating shelf 7 is basically the same as that of the first rotating shelf 4, but the design of its rotating head 6 allows it to better utilize the corner space of the building, making the entire shelf more convenient and efficient to use. The other end of the second rotating shelf 7 is connected to a second mounting bracket 9, whose structure is exactly the same as that of the first mounting bracket 2. To further enhance stability, the lower surface of the second mounting bracket 9 is specially designed with anti-slip pads to prevent the shelf from sliding during use.

[0029] Fastener 42 consists of bolts, nuts, and anti-slip washers. The bolts pass through the support frame 3 and the side plate 41, and the nuts and anti-slip washers securely fix the fasteners. To further increase the friction between the side plate 41 and the support frame 3 and prevent excessive slippage, anti-slip rubber washers are also specially provided between the side plate 41 and the support frame 3.

[0030] In addition, to facilitate the storage and retrieval of items, the end faces of the first shelf 43 and the second shelf 44 are specially provided with material discharge holes 45. These material discharge holes 45 have various designs, including round holes, oblong holes, square holes, and patterned holes, which are both beautiful and practical and can meet the personalized needs of different users. Example 2

[0031] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 4As shown, this structure is basically the same as the structure in Embodiment 1 above, but there are some differences. Specifically, a connector 5 and a rotating head 6 are specially designed at the bottom of another support frame 3. This design allows us to expand to create another set of third rotating shelves 8. The structure of the third rotating shelf 8 is completely consistent with the first rotating shelf 4. By increasing the number of shelves, we can better adapt to the spatial layout of different buildings, making the use of the shelves more flexible and diverse. The three sets of rotating shelves have a three-stage rotating design, which makes the entire shelf system more stable and also greatly increases the storage space.

[0032] The other end of the third rotating shelf 8 is also connected to a second mounting bracket 9, the structure of which is exactly the same as the first mounting bracket 2. This design ensures the stability and durability of the entire shelf system, while also making the installation and disassembly of the shelves more convenient and quick.

[0033] The usage process is as follows: Place the first mounting bracket 2 at the bottom of the base 1, close to the building. Use connectors to fix the first mounting bracket 2 in the appropriate position on the building through the mounting holes to ensure stability. Install support brackets 3 on both sides of the upper end of the base 1 to provide additional stability. Install the first rotating shelf 4 on the upper end of each of the two support brackets 3.

[0034] The tilt angles of the first shelf 43 and the second shelf 44 are adjusted by rotating the side plate 41 and fasteners 42 to accommodate different usage needs. A second rotating shelf 7 is connected to the bottom of one of the support frames 3 using a connector 5 and a rotating head 6. The other end of the second rotating shelf 7 is connected to the second mounting frame 9, ensuring its structure matches the first mounting frame 2. Anti-slip pads are used on the lower end face of the second mounting frame 9 to prevent the shelf from sliding. The side plate 41 and the support frame 3 are securely connected using fasteners 42 (including bolts, nuts, and anti-slip pads). Anti-slip rubber pads are placed between the side plate 41 and the support frame 3 to increase friction and prevent sliding. Drainage holes 45 are provided on the end faces of the first shelf 43 and the second shelf 44 for easy storage and retrieval of items.

[0035] A connector 5 and a rotating head 6 are designed at the bottom of another support frame 3 to extend a third rotating shelf 8. The other end of the third rotating shelf 8 is connected to the second mounting frame 9, ensuring that its structure is consistent with the first mounting frame 2. The three-stage rotating design of the three sets of rotating shelves increases the stability of the entire shelf system and expands the storage space.
