[0031] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments:

[0032] A folding storage cabinet includes a main panel 1, folding panels 2, a positioning frame 4, and several panel components. Two main panels 1 are provided. Each main panel 1 is made of plastic and is generally square. The left and right ends of each main panel 1 are bent towards one side, and the folding panels 2 are connected to the bent ends. Two folding panels 2 are provided and respectively connected between the two ends of the two main panels 1. Figure 1-3 As shown, there are two folding plates 2, which are respectively connected to the left and right ends of the two main panels 1. The folding plates 2 and the main panels 1 are connected in sequence to form an annular shell. Each folding plate 2 includes two flip plates 21, with a rotating structure 23 between them for rotational connection. A flexible connecting part 3 is provided between the flip plates 21 and the main panels 1, allowing the flip plates 21 to flip relative to the main panels 1. The flexible connecting part 3 and the rotating structure 23 enable the folding plates 2 to have folded and open states. Figure 1 ,2 As shown, in the folded state, the two flip panels 21 are folded between the main panel 1 via the flexible connecting part 3 and the rotating structure 23. In the open state, the two flip panels 21 unfold and cooperate with the main panel 1 to form an opening 11 via the flexible connecting part 3 and the rotating structure 23. The positioning frame 4 is used to install on the main panel 1 and the folded panel 2 at the opening 11 when the folded panel 2 is in the open state, to restrict the folding of the folded panel 2. The panel assembly is fixed in the main panel 1 to support objects placed on the main panel 1.

[0033] Specifically, such as Figure 3 , 4 As shown, the flip plate 21 in this patent is made of plastic and is integrally formed with the main panel 1. By adjusting the size of the connection between the flip plate 21 and the main panel 1, a crease 31 is formed between the flip plate 21 and the main panel 1. The crease 31 is the flexible connection part 3, which allows the flip plate 21 to be flipped around the folding plate 2 through the deformable properties of the material itself. The rotating structure 23 includes rotating rods 231 and adapter hooks 232 respectively disposed on the two flip plates 21. The rotating rods 231 are provided with adapter brackets 24, which suspend the rotating rods 231 outside the flip plates 21. The adapter hooks 232 are used to hook onto the rotating rods 231 for rotational connection. Figure 3-4 As shown, a plurality of notches are provided sequentially from top to bottom on one side edge of the flip plate 21. The adapter bracket 24 includes connecting rods at the left and right ends of the notches, the connecting rods extending outward, and a rotating rod 231 is provided between the two connecting rods. The rotating rod 231 is suspended outside the flip plate 21 by the adapter bracket 24, and sufficient space is left on the outer edge of the rotating rod 231 to connect with the adapter hook 232. Since the flip plate 21 has a plurality of notches, the flip plate 21 in this patent has a plurality of rotating rods 231. Correspondingly, on another flip plate 21, there are a plurality of adapter hooks 232 that correspond one-to-one with the rotating rods 231. The adapter hooks 232 can be directly hooked onto the rotating rods 231 to achieve a rotatable connection.

[0034] Combination Figure 1-4As shown, in the open state, the two flip panels 21 unfold into a straight line through the flexible connecting part 3 and the rotating structure 23, which connects with the main panel 1 to form a square frame. A storage cabinet is formed by setting panel components in the square frame. In the folded state, the two flip panels 21 are first folded in half through their rotating structure 23, and then move towards the two main panels 1 through the flexible connecting part 3, so that the two main panels 1 are close together and overlap. The flexible connecting part 3 rotates at least 90 degrees, so that the flip panels 21 can be parallel to the main panels 1 after flipping, thereby achieving maximum folding. Correspondingly, this patent uses the rotating rod 231 and the adapter hook 232 offset outside the flip panels 21, so that the axis of the rotating rod 231 and the adapter hook 232 is located outside the flip panels 21, so that the two flip panels 21 can reach a parallel state after being folded through their rotating structure 23, thereby maximizing the compression of the volume of the folded panels 2 after folding.

[0035] The positioning frame 4 is disposed on the top of the folding plate 2 and the main panel 1, such as Figure 6 As shown, the main panel 1 and the folding plate 2 have a locking edge 25 on one end of the opening 11. The locking edge 25 is strip-shaped. The positioning frame 4 is a square frame shape adapted to the shape of the opening 11. It has a first locking groove 41 corresponding to the locking edge 25. In the open state, the positioning frame 4 is fixed on the main panel 1 and the folding plate 2 at the opening 11, so that the locking edge 25 is located in the first locking groove 41, thereby achieving positioning.

[0036] Compared with existing folding structures, this patent adopts a flexible connection part 3 for the transition method, which eliminates the need for a large number of hinge structures, making it simpler and more convenient to manufacture. Moreover, the rotating structure 23 between the flip plates 21 only needs to hook the transition hook 232 onto the rotating rod 231 to achieve the rotational connection between the two. Its rotating structure 23 is stable and easy to manufacture.

[0037] Furthermore, a clearance plane 32 is provided on one side of the crease portion 31, and a limiting protrusion 22 is provided on the flip plate 21 on both sides of the clearance plane 32 and on the main panel 1. The limiting protrusion 22 is a convex ridge formed on the inner side of the main panel 1 and the flip plate 21 respectively. When the flip plate 21 is flipped, the clearance plane 32 abuts against the limiting protrusion 22 on the main panel 1, and the limiting protrusion 22 on the crease portion 31 abuts against the limiting protrusion 22 on the main panel 1 to restrict the flipping of the crease portion 31. The rotation angle of the flip plate 21 is restricted by the abutment of the two limiting protrusions 22.

[0038] Furthermore, the panel assembly includes a cover plate 15, which is used to directly cover the opening 11 to close the top of the folding storage cabinet. In this patent, multiple folding storage cabinets can be stacked on top of each other. Therefore, on the other end of the main panel 1 and the folding plate 2 where the opening 11 is formed, i.e., at the bottom of the main panel 1 and the folding plate 2, a second engaging groove 12 corresponding to the engaging edge 25 is provided. When several main panels 1 and folding plates 2 are stacked, the engaging edge 25 is positioned in the second engaging groove 12, and the cover plate 15 only needs to close the topmost main panel 1 and folding plate 2.

[0039] Furthermore, the panel assembly includes a support panel 51 disposed between the two main panels 1, and the main panel 1 is provided with a support boss 13 supporting the end of the support panel 51. Figure 7 , 8 As shown, the support boss 13 is integrally formed on the main panel 1. The support boss 13 is provided at least at the bottom and the middle of the support boss 13. The front and rear length of the support panel 51 is adapted to the distance between the two support bosses 13, so that the support panel 51 can be directly placed on the two support bosses 13 of the two main panels 1 to achieve installation and positioning.

[0040] Furthermore, the panel assembly includes a side partition 52 for dividing the interior cavity of the folding storage cabinet. The side partition 52 is located between the two main panels 1, and the main panels 1 are provided with partition slots 14 for accommodating the side partition 52. The partition slots 14 are formed by integrally forming a protrusion on the inner side of the main panels 1 and slotting it. The panel assembly can be disassembled in the folded state and stored in the gap between the two main panels.
