Figures 1 to 12 The diagram illustrates a preferred embodiment of a tool holder 100, comprising a housing 1, a connecting mechanism 2, and cover 3. The housing 1 has the connecting mechanism 2, and an internal mounting groove 4. Several cover 3 are detachably mounted within the mounting groove 4. Each cover 3 has slots 301 on both sides. The slots 301 facing each other between adjacent cover 3 form a clamping groove for holding tools and cooperating with the deformation of the cover 3 to hold the tools. In this embodiment, see [reference needed]. Figure 1 As shown, the housing 1 is provided with two connecting mechanisms 2, which are located at both ends of the housing 1. In other embodiments, one or more connecting mechanisms 2 may be provided.
[0035] In this embodiment, the mounting groove 4 is located in the middle of the housing 1 for mounting tools, while the retaining cover 3 is elastic and can be made of stainless steel sheet or other elastic material. It can deform to clamp the tool. The tool is inserted between the two retaining covers 3 through the clamping groove. During the insertion of the tool, the retaining cover 3 deforms, thereby clamping the tool. The retaining cover 3 is detachable for easy disassembly and assembly, and different shapes or sizes of retaining covers 3 can be replaced as needed.
[0036] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, it also includes partitions 5 and connectors 6. The mounting groove 4 has several partitions 5 inside, each partition 5 has a cover 3 at its upper end, and each partition 5 is detachably connected to the housing 1 via a connector 6 at its lower end. The partitions 5 are made of rigid material and have a certain supporting capacity. The partitions 5 and the covers 3 can be integrally injection molded or directly welded together. The connectors 6 can be bolts or screws. See [reference needed]. Figure 3 and Figure 9 As shown, a threaded sleeve 11 is integrally formed at the lower center of the partition 5, and a threaded hole is formed on the bottom wall of the mounting groove 4. A connector 6 can be installed in the threaded hole. The connector 6 can be screwed into the threaded sleeve 11, thereby connecting the threaded sleeve 11 and fixing the partition 5 to the housing 1.

[0037] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, it also includes limiting pieces 7. A plurality of limiting pieces 7 are provided on the inner walls of both sides of the mounting groove 4. A limiting groove is formed between two adjacent limiting pieces 7 on the same side, and a spacer 5 is located within two opposing limiting grooves. See also Figure 5 As shown, each limiting piece 7 is arc-shaped or L-shaped, and a limiting groove is formed between two limiting pieces 7 for installing the partition 5, thereby achieving the installation and limiting of the partition 5. The limiting pieces 7 can be fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the mounting groove 4 or welded onto the inner wall of the mounting groove 4. See also... Figure 9 As shown, sliding grooves 501 are provided on the side walls on both sides of the partition 5 for cooperating with the limiting blocks. When the partition 5 is inserted into the limiting groove, the two limiting pieces 7 will be inserted into the sliding grooves 501, which facilitates the partition 5 to enter the two limiting grooves and makes the partition 5 more stable after installation.
[0038] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, the bottom wall of the mounting groove 4 is provided with several through holes 8. Each independent area has several through holes 8, and the size of the through holes 8 can be set as needed to prevent tools from falling in. The through holes 8 also serve a drainage function.
[0039] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, a groove 9 is also provided on the bottom wall of the mounting groove 4, and several through holes 8 corresponding to the same clamping groove are connected by the groove 9. See also Figure 5 As shown, each independent area is provided with two through holes 8 and one groove 9. The groove 9 is positioned directly opposite the clamping groove, which facilitates the positioning of the tool. The lower end of the tool can be inserted into the groove 9. The groove 9 connects to the through holes 8. When there are water droplets on the tool, the water droplets gather and drip down into the groove 9, then into the through holes 8, and are discharged through the through holes 8, preventing the internal tools from rusting due to prolonged dampness inside the housing 1.
[0040] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, each connecting mechanism 2 includes a connecting plate 201 and a snap-fit assembly. The connecting plate 201 is connected to the housing 1, and a mounting port 206 is provided on the connecting plate 201, with the snap-fit assembly disposed within the mounting port. The connecting plate 201 can be connected to the outer wall of the housing 1 by screws. See [reference needed]. Figure 6 As shown, a through hole 12 is provided on the outer wall of the housing 1, and the limiting structure 207 in the snap-fit assembly can pass through the through hole 12.
[0041] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, it also includes a hook 202, with a hook 202 provided at one end of the connecting plate 201. Each connecting plate 201 has at least one hook 202 at one end, and the hook 202 is integrally connected to the connecting plate 201, with the hook 202 arranged in a Z-shape.
[0042] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, each snap-fit assembly includes a snap-fit 203, a rotating shaft 204, and a torsion spring 205. The rotating shaft 204 is located on one side of the connecting plate 201 and rotatably connected to the housing 1. The rotating shaft 204 is provided with the torsion spring 205 and the snap-fit 203, with one end of the snap-fit 203 extending out of the mounting port 206. A limiting structure 207 is also included. The snap-fit 203 is provided with the limiting structure 207. One end of the torsion spring 205 abuts against the inner wall of the housing 1, and the other end of the torsion spring 205 is connected to the limiting structure 207. The limiting structure 207 can limit the block. One side wall of the limiting structure 207 is an arc-shaped wall, and the other side wall of the limiting structure 207 is connected to the other end of the torsion spring 205. The snap-fit 203 and the rotating shaft 204 can be relatively fixed. The torsion spring 205 can push the snap-fit 203 to drive the rotating shaft 204 to rotate, thereby causing the limiting structure 207 to enter or leave the mounting port 206.
[0043] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the implementation method and protection scope of the present utility model.
[0044] Based on the above embodiments, this embodiment also discloses a toolbox, including a tool rack 100, a container 10, and a connecting part 1001. The connecting part 1001 is provided on the side wall of the container 10, and the tool rack 100 is detachably connected to the connecting part 1001 through a connecting mechanism 2. In this embodiment, the tool rack 100 can be installed on the outer wall of the container 10 through the connecting mechanism 2, which satisfies the expansion of the toolbox's function and makes it very convenient to retrieve tools. The shape of the container 10 in this embodiment can be set as needed. The connecting part 1001 can be a connecting piece, which is provided with a plurality of hook holes 1002 that cooperate with hooks 202, and a plurality of limiting holes 1003 that cooperate with limiting structures 207. For details, please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 10-12 As shown, a number of hook holes 1002 are arranged in a row, and a number of limiting holes 1003 are arranged in a row, with the hook holes 1002 and the limiting holes 1003 being parallel. The connecting part 1001 and the container 10 can be connected by screws or bolts. An end cap can be provided at the upper end of the container 10.
[0045] When in use, the tool holder 100 can be assembled onto the container 10 and can be used independently. When it needs to be assembled with the container 10, the buckle 203 can be manually pushed outward. The buckle 203 rotates to overcome the resistance of the torsion spring 205. At this time, the limiting structure 207 on the buckle 203 will follow the buckle 203 outward to disengage from the mounting port 206. Then, the hook 202 is inserted into the hook hole 1002. Then, the buckle 203 is released. At this time, the buckle 203 rotates automatically under the action of the torsion spring 205, which drives the limiting structure 207 into the mounting port 206 and then into the limiting hole 1003. At this time, the limiting structure 207 and the limiting hole 1003 cooperate with each other, so that the hook 202 will not disengage from the hook hole 1002, thereby completing the assembly between the tool holder 100 and the container 10. When a tool needs to be inserted into the tool holder 100, the lower end of the tool can be inserted through the slot into the area between two adjacent dividers 5 until the lower end of the tool is inserted into the groove 9. At this time, the tool will press against the cover 3, causing the cover 3 to deform. The deformation of the cover 3 will apply a certain clamping force to the tool, thus allowing the tool to be stably clamped in the tool holder 100. When the tool is needed, it can be directly pulled out from the tool holder 100.
[0046] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the implementation method and protection scope of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art should realize that all solutions obtained by equivalent substitutions and obvious changes made based on the description and illustrations of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
