[0022] The screw storage device is used for storing the screw 3 with a cap and is convenient to take, and the storage device comprises a storage unit 1, Figures 1-2 The structure of the storage unit 1 of the screw storage device is shown, the storage unit 1 comprises a unit frame 11, the unit frame 11 comprises a base portion 111 and two opposite inclined top portions 112 located above the base portion 111, in the embodiment, the base portion 111 and the inclined top portion 112 are integrally formed by injection molding. The unit frame 11 has a screw groove 113, the screw groove 113 penetrates the base portion 111 and passes between the two inclined top portions 112 to make the cross section of the screw groove 113 funnel-shaped, the width of the part of the screw groove 113 located in the base is greater than the diameter of the rod portion of the screw 3 and less than the diameter of the head portion of the screw 3. The length of the inclined top portion 112 is less than the length of the screw groove 113, so that the end part of the screw groove 113 formed by the base portion 111 is exposed.
[0023] The screw 3 is placed between the two inclined top portions 112 at will, the rod portion of the screw 3 will automatically enter the screw groove 113 under the action of gravity and the guidance of the inclined top portion 112, and the head portion is left between the two inclined top portions 112 because the diameter is greater than the screw groove 113, as shown in Figure 2 , so that the screw 3 is stored in a vertical state, and the storage operation is very simple. Compared with the screw lying disorderly in the box, the vertical and orderly storage mode saves storage space. Inclining the unit frame 11 by hand, the screw 3 slides to the lower end of the screw groove 113, the head portion of the screw 3 is exposed at the end of the screw groove 113, and the screw 3 can be conveniently taken by hand, and each time one is taken away, the remaining screw 3 will automatically slide to the end of the screw groove 113.
