[0008] The connecting seat has a supporting portion, and the half-frame has an abutting portion configured to abut on the supporting portion after rotation to limit the rotation angle of the half-frame.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, in the present application, the two half-frames can be opened after the limitation of the connecting limiting component is released, and the two half-frames maintain an open angle after being supported by the supporting portion. At this time, it is convenient to load goods. After loading, the two half-frames can be rotated to reset, i.e. the two half-frames are combined, and the two half-frames are limited by the connecting limiting component.
[0010] When the two half frames are opened, the space occupation increases, and when the two half frames are closed, the space occupation decreases.
[0011] According to different use requirements, one of the half frames can be selectively rotated to separate the connection limiting component from the matching limiting piece. Of course, the two half frames can also be opened at the same time to load the goods.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the goods can be conveniently placed between the frame one and the frame two, and the material blocking piece can prevent the goods from falling.
[0019] In a specific implementation, the material blocking piece is a mesh plate including a plurality of mesh holes arranged in horizontal and vertical directions.
[0020] In a specific implementation, a gap is formed between the two half frames, a plurality of material leakage blocking plates are arranged below the two half frames, the plurality of material leakage blocking plates are arranged at the middle positions of the two half frames, and the plurality of material leakage blocking plates are uniformly arranged.
[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the material leakage blocking plate can prevent the loaded goods from falling out of the gap.
[0022] In a specific implementation, the material blocking piece is a plurality of blocking rods, and the plurality of blocking rods are uniformly arranged on the frame one and the frame two.
[0023] In one specific implementation, each of the half frames is provided with a handle ring.
[0024] By using the handle ring, force can be conveniently applied to the half frame.
[0025] In summary, the present application has at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0026] 1. In the present application, the two half frames can be opened after the connection limiting assembly is released, and the two half frames maintain an open angle after being supported by the supporting portion, which facilitates loading. After loading, the two half frames can be rotated to reset, i.e., the two half frames are closed, and the two half frames are limited by the connection limiting assembly. When the two half frames are apart, the space occupation increases, and when the two half frames are closed, the space occupation decreases.
[0027] 2. The half frame is closed by rotating the half frame to the magnetic attraction member contact fitting limiting member, i.e., the magnetic attraction member is connected and fixed with the fitting limiting member. Based on the magnetic attraction principle, the switching of opening and closing of the half frame is relatively convenient, and since the magnetic attraction surface is in contact with the end surface of the iron sheet, the magnetic attraction column can be firmly attracted to the iron sheet.

[0039] With reference to Figure 1 and Figure 2 Specifically, taking one of the connecting limiting components 5 as an example: the connecting limiting component 5 comprises an L-shaped connecting plate 51 fixedly connected to the half frame 4, a magnetic attraction piece 52 is installed on the connecting plate 51, and the magnetic attraction piece 52 is configured to be attracted to the matching limiting piece 21 under the rotation of the half frame 4, so that the matching limiting piece 21 is located on the rotation path of the magnetic attraction piece 52. The specific structure of the magnetic attraction piece 52 is a prior art and thus will not be described here. In the present application, the matching limiting piece 21 is a vertically arranged iron sheet.
[0040] With reference to Figure 1 and Figure 2 More specifically, in order to ensure that the magnetic attraction piece 52 can be firmly attracted to the matching limiting piece 21, the magnetic attraction piece 52 comprises a connecting rod 521 connected to the connecting plate 51, and a magnetic attraction column 522 connected to the end of the connecting rod 521 away from the connecting plate 51, the magnetic attraction column 522 has a magnetic attraction surface 5221, and when the magnetic attraction column 522 is attracted to the iron sheet, the magnetic attraction surface 5221 is attached to the end surface of the iron sheet.
[0041] With reference to Figure 1 and Figure 3, two half frames 4 are structurally identical and symmetrically arranged based on the axis of the lower tube 1, and taken one of the half frames 4 as an example: the half frame 4 comprises a frame one 41 rotatably connected to the connecting seat 3 and a frame two 42 connected to the frame one 41, the frame one 41 is obliquely arranged on the frame two 42, and the included angle between the frame one 41 and the frame two 42 is 102° in this embodiment, of course, the included angle between the frame one 41 and the frame two 42 can be larger or smaller in other embodiments, and a side plate can also be installed on the frame to prevent the goods from falling out of the half frame 4, as long as the rotation of the half frame 4 is not affected. The frame one 41 and the frame two 42 are both provided with a material blocking piece 43A, which is a mesh plate in this embodiment, the mesh plate comprises a plurality of mesh holes on the end face, and after the two half frames 4 are opened, the frame one 41 will be arranged in a horizontal state, at which time it is convenient to place smaller goods in the frame one 41 and the frame two 42.
