Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of office supplies, specifically to a file storage cabinet. Background Technology
[0002] A filing cabinet is a tool used to store and organize files, folders, and other office documents. It is usually made of sturdy materials, such as metal or wood, and is divided into multiple independent file storage areas by shelves to store different types of documents, such as invoices, receipts, meeting minutes, folders, etc.
[0003] The shelf shelves in a file storage cabinet are usually fixed, and the space between adjacent shelves is also fixed. However, the size and dimensions of the documents to be stored vary, and the space required for each shelf also varies. This results in insufficient space on some shelf shelves used for large documents, such as folders, while space is wasted on shelf shelves used for smaller documents, such as invoices and receipts, when classifying and storing different types of documents. This affects the space utilization rate of the file storage cabinet. Utility Model Content
[0004] This application provides a file storage cabinet to solve the technical problems of wasted space and inability to meet the storage needs of large files caused by the fixed space between adjacent storage shelves in traditional file storage cabinets.
[0005] The technical solution adopted in this application is as follows:
[0006] A file storage cabinet includes a cabinet body with side panels and a back panel located between the two side panels. It also includes a plurality of vertically arranged storage plates within the cabinet body. The back panel has guide protrusions extending vertically, and each storage plate has a guide groove adapted to the guide protrusion. The guide groove is engaged with the guide protrusion, and the storage plate can slide along the guide protrusion. Adjacent storage plates include an upper plate and a lower plate, with a movable adjustment assembly between the upper and lower plates. The adjustment assembly can change the gap between the upper and lower plates in an active state. Each storage plate has a movable fixing member, and the side panels have a plurality of fixing positions spaced vertically. Each storage plate can be fixed to any of the fixing positions by the fixing member.
[0007] The document storage cabinet described in this application also includes the following additional technical features:
[0008] The adjustment assembly includes a first connecting rod hinged to the upper plate, a second connecting rod hinged to the lower plate, and an operating rod hinged to the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod respectively. The operating rod can drive the angle between the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod to change in order to adjust the gap between the upper plate and the lower plate.
[0009] The number of adjustment components between two adjacent placement plates is two. The two adjustment components are respectively located on the side of the placement plate near the two side plates. The side plates have operating openings that extend in a vertical direction, and the operating rod is at least partially exposed in the operating openings.
[0010] The operating lever includes an operating part that is hinged to the first linkage and the second linkage respectively, and a gripping part that is connected to the operating part. The gripping part extends horizontally and is exposed in the operating port.
[0011] It also includes an elastic auxiliary member disposed between the upper plate and the lower plate, the elastic auxiliary member abutting against the upper plate and the lower plate respectively to assist the adjustment assembly in increasing the gap between the upper plate and the lower plate.
[0012] The side panel has a limiting part on the side away from the back panel, and the limiting part abuts against the placement plate.
[0013] The fixing component includes a first fixing component located on the side of the placement plate opposite to the back plate. The first fixing component includes a fixing base and a fixing insert shaft. The fixing base is fixedly connected to the placement plate and has an insertion hole extending in a horizontal direction. The limiting part is provided with a first fixing hole at each of the fixing positions. The fixing insert shaft passes through the insertion hole and the first fixing hole in sequence to fix the placement plate to the side plate.
[0014] The insertion hole includes a first hole body on the side close to the first fixing hole and a second hole body on the side away from the first fixing hole. The fixing shaft includes a first shaft body and a second shaft body. The diameter of the second hole body is smaller than the diameter of the first hole body to restrict the first shaft body from being dislodged from the insertion hole.
[0015] The fastener also includes a second fastener located on the side of the placement plate near the back plate. The side plate has a second fastening hole near the back plate. The second fastener cooperates with the second fastening hole to fix the placement plate to the side plate.
[0016] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects achieved by this application are as follows:
[0017] 1. The document storage cabinet of this application includes a cabinet body, the interior of which is divided into multiple document storage areas by storage panels for storing different types of documents, facilitating the storage of various document types by users. An adjustment mechanism is provided between adjacent storage panels, and guide pillars are provided inside the cabinet. The adjustment mechanism allows adjustment of the gap between adjacent storage panels to increase or decrease the size of the document storage area. For smaller documents, such as invoices and receipts, the user can adjust the mechanism to reduce the distance between the upper and lower panels, thereby reducing the volume of that document storage area and providing more space for the remaining document storage areas. For larger documents, such as folders, the adjustment mechanism can increase the distance between the storage panels, creating more space between the upper and lower panels to accommodate more documents. This allows for easy adjustment of the gap between the storage panels according to the user's actual needs, meeting the storage requirements for documents of different sizes. Furthermore, the back panel features vertically extending guide protrusions, and the placement plate has matching guide grooves. This allows the placement plate to slide along the extension direction of the guide protrusions through the cooperation of the guide grooves and guide protrusions, improving the smoothness of the adjustment assembly's movement of the placement plate and increasing the smoothness of the placement plate's adjustment. In this technical aspect, the side panel of the document storage cabinet of this application has multiple fixing positions, and the placement plate is equipped with fixing components. These fixing components secure the placement plate at different fixing positions, ensuring the stability of the placement plate in supporting documents.
[0018] 2. In a preferred embodiment of this application, the adjustment assembly includes a first connecting rod, a second connecting rod, and an operating rod. The upper plate, the first connecting rod, the operating rod, the second connecting rod, and the lower plate are sequentially hinged. This allows the first and second connecting rods to rotate under the influence of the operating rod, and the rotation causes a change in the gap between the upper and lower plates, thereby adjusting the gap between the upper and lower plates. This simplifies the structure of the adjustment assembly and optimizes the user experience.
[0019] 3. In a preferred embodiment of this application, the number of adjustment components is set to two, which can increase the stability of the placement plate when the adjustment components drive the placement plate to move. Furthermore, placing the adjustment components on both sides of the placement plate can reduce spatial interference between the placement plates and make it easier for users to pick up documents on the placement plate. In addition, the side plate is provided with an operation port, which allows users to push and pull the operation lever through the operation port.
[0020] 4. As a preferred embodiment of this application, by setting a limiting part, the placement plate can be laterally limited. Under the limiting of the back plate and the side plate, the placement plate is stably placed inside the cabinet, preventing the limiting plate from falling out of the cabinet.

[0037] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a file storage cabinet includes a cabinet body 1, which has side panels 11 and a back panel 12 located between the two side panels 11. It also includes multiple placement plates 13 arranged vertically within the cabinet body 1. The back panel 12 has guide protrusions 121 extending vertically. Each placement plate 13 has a guide groove adapted to the guide protrusion 121, which is fastened to the guide protrusion 121, allowing the placement plate 13 to slide along the guide protrusion 121. Adjacent placement plates 13 include an upper plate 131 and a lower plate 132. A movable adjustment component 2 is provided between the upper plate 131 and the lower plate 132, allowing the adjustment component 2 to change the gap between the upper plate 131 and the lower plate 132 in an active state. Each placement plate 13 has a movable fixing member 3, and the side panels 11 have multiple fixing positions spaced vertically, allowing the placement plate 13 to be fixed to any of these fixing positions by the fixing member 3.
[0038] The document storage cabinet of this application includes a cabinet body 1. The interior of the cabinet body 1 is divided into multiple document storage areas by storage panels 13 for storing different types of documents, facilitating the storage of different types of documents by users. An adjustment component 2 is provided between adjacent storage panels 13, and a guide post 121 is provided inside the cabinet body 1. The gap between adjacent storage panels 13 is adjusted by the adjustment component 2 to increase or decrease the size of the document storage area. For smaller documents, such as invoices and receipts, the user can adjust the component 2 to reduce the distance between the upper panel 131 and the lower panel 132, thereby reducing the volume of that document storage area and providing more space for the remaining document storage areas. For larger documents, such as folders, the distance between the storage panels 13 can be increased by adjusting the component 2, creating more space between the upper panel 131 and the lower panel 132 to accommodate more documents. In this way, the gap between the storage panels 13 can be adjusted according to the user's actual needs to meet the storage requirements of documents of different sizes. Furthermore, the back panel 12 is provided with vertically extending guide protrusions 121, and the placement plate 13 is provided with matching guide grooves, allowing the placement plate 13 to slide along the extension direction of the guide protrusions 121 through the cooperation of the guide grooves and guide protrusions 121. This improves the smoothness of the movement of the placement plate 13 driven by the adjustment assembly 2 and increases the smoothness of the adjustment of the placement plate 13. In this technical aspect, the side panel 11 of the document placement cabinet of this application is provided with multiple fixing positions, and the placement plate 13 is provided with fixing members 3. The fixing members 3 are used to fix the placement plate 13 at different fixing positions, providing a guarantee for the stability of the placement plate 13 in bearing documents.
[0039] The positional relationship between the upper plate 131 and the lower plate 132 in this application is relative, such as... Figure 2 As shown, in placement plates a and b, placement plate a is the upper plate 131 and placement plate b is the lower plate 132. In placement plates b and c, placement plate b is the upper plate 131 and placement plate c is the lower plate 132. Taking placement plates a, b, and c as an example, if it is necessary to adjust the gap between placement plates b and c, with placement plate c fixed, the fixing piece 3 on placement plate b is released, and then the gap between placement plates b and c is adjusted by adjusting component 2. During this process, the gap between placement plates a and b also changes accordingly. That is, if the gap between placement plates b and c increases, the gap between placement plates a and b decreases; if the gap between placement plates b and c decreases, the gap between placement plates a and b increases.
[0040] As a preferred embodiment of this application, such as Figure 2As shown, the adjustment assembly 2 includes a first connecting rod 21 hinged to the upper plate 131, a second connecting rod 22 hinged to the lower plate 132, and an operating rod 23 hinged to both the first connecting rod 21 and the second connecting rod 22. The operating rod 23 can drive the angle between the first connecting rod 21 and the second connecting rod 22 to change, thereby adjusting the gap between the upper plate 131 and the lower plate 132. The adjustment assembly 2 includes the first connecting rod 21, the second connecting rod 22, and the operating rod 23, with the upper plate 131, the first connecting rod 21, the operating rod 23, the second connecting rod 22, and the lower plate 132 hinged sequentially. This allows the first connecting rod 21 and the second connecting rod 22 to rotate under the influence of the operating rod 23, and the rotation causes a change in the gap between the upper plate 131 and the lower plate 132, thereby adjusting the gap between the upper plate 131 and the lower plate 132. This makes the structure of the adjustment assembly 2 relatively simple and optimizes the user experience.
[0041] As a preferred embodiment of this implementation, such as Figure 1 As shown, there are two adjustment components 2 between two adjacent placement plates 13. The two adjustment components 2 are located on the side of the placement plate 13 near the side plates 11. The side plates 11 have operating openings 111 extending vertically, and the operating rod 23 is at least partially exposed through the operating openings 111. Setting the number of adjustment components 2 to two can increase the stability of the placement plate 13 when the adjustment components 2 drive the placement plate 13 to move. Moreover, placing the adjustment components 2 on both sides of the placement plate 13 can reduce spatial interference between the placement plates 13, making it easier for users to take documents on the placement plate 13. In addition, the side plates 11 are provided with operating openings 111, which allows users to push and pull the operating rod 23 through the operating openings 111.
[0042] As a preferred example of this embodiment, the operating lever 23 includes an operating part that is hinged to the first connecting lever 21 and the second connecting lever 22 respectively, and a gripping part connected to the operating part. The gripping part extends horizontally and is exposed in the operating port 111. By providing a gripping part exposed in the operating port 111, it is convenient for the user to operate the operating part by gripping it, thereby enabling smoother movement of the first connecting lever 21 and the second connecting lever 22.
[0043] As a preferred embodiment in this example, an elastic auxiliary member is also included between the upper plate 131 and the lower plate 132. The elastic auxiliary member abuts against both the upper plate 131 and the lower plate 132 to assist the adjusting assembly 2 in increasing the gap between them. By providing the elastic auxiliary member, the placement plate 13 can be provided with some elastic support. Since the placement plate 13 carries documents, when the adjusting assembly 2 moves the placement plate 13 upwards, it is necessary to overcome the weight of the placement plate 13 and the documents placed on it. The elastic auxiliary member can offset at least part of the weight of the placement plate 13 and the documents on it, allowing the user to more easily adjust the placement plate 13. Preferably, the elastic auxiliary member is a spring.
[0044] As a preferred embodiment of this application, such as Figure 3 As shown, the side panel 11 has a limiting part 112 on the side away from the back panel 12, and the limiting part 112 abuts against the placement plate 13. By setting the limiting part 112, the placement plate 13 can be laterally limited. Under the limitation of the back panel 12 and the side panel 11, the placement plate 13 is stably placed inside the cabinet 1, preventing the limiting plate from falling out of the cabinet 1.
[0045] As a preferred embodiment of this implementation, such as Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the fixing member 3 includes a first fixing member 4 located on the side of the placement plate 13 opposite to the back plate 12. The first fixing member 4 includes a fixing base 41 and a fixing shaft 42. The fixing base 41 is fixedly connected to the placement plate 13 and has a horizontally extending insertion hole 411. The limiting part 112 has a first fixing hole 1121 at each corresponding fixing position. The fixing shaft 42 passes through the insertion hole 411 and the first fixing hole 1121 in sequence to fix the placement plate 13 to the side plate 11. The fixing of the placement plate 13 and the side plate 11 is achieved by sequentially inserting the fixing shaft 42 into the insertion hole 411 and the first fixing hole 1121, which makes it easier for the user to operate. When it is necessary to adjust the placement plate 13, the user can pull the fixing shaft 42 out of the first fixing hole 1121 to disconnect the connection between the placement plate 13 and the side plate 11, reducing the difficulty of adjustment.
[0046] As a preferred example in this embodiment, such as Figure 4 , Figure 5As shown, the insertion hole 411 includes a first hole body 4111 on the side near the first fixing hole 1121 and a second hole body 4112 on the side away from the first fixing hole 1121. The fixed insertion shaft 42 includes a first shaft body 421 and a second shaft body 422. The diameter of the second hole body 4112 is smaller than the diameter of the first hole body 4111 to restrict the first shaft body 421 from being dislodged from the insertion hole 411. Specifically, the diameter of the first shaft 421 is larger than the diameter of the second hole 4112, and the diameter of the first shaft 421 is larger than that of the second shaft 422. When the placement plate 13 is connected to the side plate 11, the first shaft 421 is at least partially located within the first fixing hole 1121, and the second shaft 422 is at least partially located within the first hole 4111. When the placement plate 13 is unlocked from the side plate 11, the first shaft 421 is located within the first hole 4111. Since the diameter of the first shaft 421 is larger than the diameter of the second hole 4112, the first shaft 421 cannot be dislodged from the insertion hole 411 through the second hole 4112. In this way, the fixed insertion shaft 42 is prevented from dislodging from the insertion hole 411, and the fixed insertion shaft 42 is prevented from falling off.
[0047] Figure 4 The first shaft 421 is located in the first fixing hole 1121, at which time the placement plate 13 is connected to the limiting part 112; Figure 5 The first shaft 421 is located inside the first hole 4111, at which time the placement plate 13 is separated from the limiting part 112.
[0048] Preferably, the fixing member 3 further includes a second fixing member located on the side of the placement plate 13 near the back plate 12. The side plate 11 has a second fixing hole near the back plate 12. The second fixing member cooperates with the second fixing hole to fix the placement plate 13 to the side plate 11. By providing the second fixing member and the second fixing hole, the placement plate 13 achieves a stable connection with the side plate 11 under the joint support of the first fixing member 4 and the second fixing member, preventing the placement plate 13 from deforming or overturning due to uneven force.
