[0016] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0017] Example: Figure 1-3As shown, this utility model provides a container with a folding top cover, including a container body 1. The upper surface of the container body 1 is symmetrically provided with top reinforcing grooves 11, which enhance the structural strength of the top of the container body 1 and prevent deformation of the top due to external pressure during transportation or placement. A top plate 2 is fixedly installed inside the container body 1. A top cover plate 3 is symmetrically rotated on the upper surface of the container body 1. Support rods 36 are symmetrically fixed on the upper surface of the top plate 2, and hinges 37 are bolted to the inner side of the upper surface of the support rods 36. The other side of the hinges 37 is bolted to the corresponding top cover plate 3. The top cover plate 3 is connected to the support rods 36 via the hinges 37 and is locked onto the locking frame 35 when closed. This connection and fixing method makes the top cover structure stable and ensures that the top cover plate 3 will not easily loosen under transportation bumps. A pull groove 31 is symmetrically opened on the upper surface of the top cover plate 3 on one side. 1. The top cover 3 is easy for operators to grip and open and close, improving operational convenience. The upper surface of the top cover 2 is provided with a through groove 34, which is located below the corresponding two top cover 3s. There are three through grooves 34, which are evenly distributed. A retaining frame 35 is fixed in the through groove 34, and the top cover 3 is engaged in the corresponding retaining frame 35. When it is necessary to open the container top cover, the top cover 3 is pulled by the pull groove 31. Since the top cover 3 is connected to the support rod 36 by the hinge 37 and the support rod 36 is fixed to the top cover 2, the top cover 3 will rotate around the hinge 37 to fold upward and open. When closing, the top cover 3 is rotated down and engaged in the corresponding retaining frame 35 to complete the closing action of the top cover. After the top cover 3 is opened, the through groove 34 and the space below can provide a larger loading and unloading space, which facilitates the entry and exit of large or irregular items and improves the efficiency of cargo loading and unloading.
[0018] A water trough plate 5 is fixedly installed inside the channel 34, and a sealing baffle 51 is clamped on the upper surface of the water trough plate 5. L-shaped support blocks 52, evenly spaced, are fixedly installed on one side of the water trough plate 5, and a support member 53 is fixedly installed on the L-shaped support block 52. A rotating member 54 is rotatably installed on the inner side of the support member 53, and the rotating member 54 is fixedly connected to the sealing baffle 51. With the water trough plate 5 installed inside the channel 34, under normal circumstances, the sealing baffle 51 is clamped onto the water trough plate 5 to prevent goods from entering the water trough when poured in. The drainage channel 5 is designed to prevent blockage caused by the accumulation of goods, thus affecting its drainage and other functions. The sealing baffle 51 is rotatably connected to the support 53 via the rotating part 54. When the drainage channel 5 needs to be cleaned, the rotating part 54 can be rotated to open the sealing baffle 51. The cooperative design of the drainage channel 5 and the sealing baffle 51 can effectively drain water and prevent water accumulation in the box, while maintaining good sealing performance under normal circumstances to prevent dust, debris and other objects from entering the box through the channel 34, ensuring a good storage environment for the items inside the box.
[0019] Working principle: When the container top cover needs to be opened, the top cover plate 3 is pulled by the pull groove 31. Since the top cover plate 3 is connected to the support rod 36 by the hinge 37 and the support rod 36 is fixed on the top plate 2, the top cover plate 3 will rotate around the hinge 37 to fold upward and open. When closing, the top cover plate 3 is rotated down and locked onto the corresponding locking frame 35 to complete the closing action of the top cover. After the top cover plate 3 is opened, the through groove 34 and the space below can provide a larger loading and unloading space, which facilitates the entry and exit of large or irregular items and improves the efficiency of cargo loading and unloading.
[0020] Normally, the sealing baffle 51 is attached to the drainage trough plate 5 to prevent goods from entering the drainage trough plate 5 when they are poured in. It also prevents the drainage trough plate 5 from being blocked due to the accumulation of goods, which would affect its drainage and other functions. The sealing baffle 51 is rotatably connected to the support member 53 through the rotating part 54. When the drainage trough plate 5 needs to be cleaned, the rotating part 54 can be rotated to open the sealing baffle 51. The cooperative design of the drainage trough plate 5 and the sealing baffle 51 can effectively drain water and prevent water accumulation in the box. It can also maintain good sealing performance under normal circumstances to prevent dust, debris and other objects from entering the box through the channel 34, thus ensuring a good storage environment for the items inside the box.
[0021] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope. Therefore, if these modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims of this utility model and their equivalents, this utility model also intends to include these modifications and variations.
