Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of turnover container technology, specifically to a sealable container. Background Technology
[0002] The existing cardboard boxes often use disposable materials such as strapping, buckles, and tape when packing goods, which wastes resources and increases the difficulty of packing operations. Moreover, when cardboard boxes are soaked in water, they are prone to damage and bulging during transportation and stacking.

[0056] like Figure 1 As shown, this utility model provides a sealable container. In this embodiment, a box with a lid is used as an example. The box includes a base 11 and four side panels arranged in pairs opposite each other. The four side panels are divided into a pair of long side panels 12 and a pair of short side panels 13. The pair of long side panels and the pair of short side panels are arranged opposite each other, and the pair of long side panels and the pair of short side panels together with the base 11 form a rectangular cavity for loading goods. In some cases, the lengths of the long side panels and the short side panels can be the same, in which case a square cavity is formed. The side panels and the base are usually made of plastic, which can be manufactured using existing processes such as vacuum forming and injection molding.
[0057] The box also includes a lid 14, one side of which is hinged to the top of one of the long side panels 12, allowing the lid 14 to be flipped to cover the cavity opening and to be flipped to the outside of the long side panel, leaving the box open. A self-locking device 2 is provided on the other side of the lid 14, engaging with the top of the other long side panel 12 to secure the lid 14 to the long side panel 12. This replaces disposable packing straps and buckles, simplifying the packaging process and overcoming the shortcomings of older two-piece lid designs in terms of sealing and locking stability, offering convenience and ease of use. In some cases, a buckle can also be provided on the short side panel, or on both the short and long side panels. The edge of the lid 14 has a circumferential flange to enhance its strength.
[0058] See Figures 2-6The self-locking device 2 includes a locking mechanism 21 and a reset member 22. The locking mechanism 21 includes a guide block 211, a locking tongue 212, and an operating part 213. The lid 14 is provided with a guide groove 141 that matches the guide block 211. The guide groove 141 extends along both sides of the relatively long side plate of the lid 14. The guide block 211 is slidably confined within the guide groove 141, and the guide block 211 can move within the guide groove 141 along the width direction of the lid 14. Specifically, the guide block 211 of the locking mechanism 21 has guide protrusions 2111 on both sides of the lid 14 along its length. The guide groove 141 is a guide groove extending along the width direction of the lid. The guide protrusions 2111 are located within the guide groove, allowing them to slide along the guide groove and be limited in the length direction of the lid. The operating part 213 is used to drive the guide block 211 to move along the guide groove direction, thereby realizing the extension and retraction of the locking tongue 212, and then allowing the locking tongue 212 to engage with the locking groove on the long side plate for locking. In this embodiment, the guide block 211, the locking tongue 212 and the operating part 213 are an integral structure, and the operating part 213 is a groove portion provided on the integral structure.
[0059] The reset member 22 acts on the guide block 211, generating a force on the guide block 211 towards the other side of the lid 14, i.e., a force towards the hinged connection side of the lid. In this embodiment, the reset member 22 is a spring. The lid 14 is provided with a lid limiting part 142, and the locking mechanism 21 is provided with a locking limiting part 214. The two ends of the spring are respectively fixedly connected to the lid limiting part 142 and the locking limiting part 214. Preferably, the lid 14 is also provided with a lid stop part 143, which is located on the travel path of the locking limiting part 214 to block the locking limiting part 214, thereby limiting the distance that the locking mechanism 21 extends away from the hinged side of the lid.
[0060] See Figure 1 , Figures 7-9A locking groove 121 is provided on the top of the long side plate 12 corresponding to the side of the lid 14 where the self-locking device 2 is located. The locking groove 121 cooperates with the locking tongue 212 of the self-locking device 2 to lock the self-locking device 2 to the long side plate 12. Specifically, the locking groove 121 has a locking groove 1211, and a side plate guide portion 1212 is provided on the top of the locking groove 1211. The locking tongue 212 has a stop portion 2121 that is fixed to the locking groove 1211 and a latch guide portion 2122 that matches the side plate guide portion 1212. The latch guide portion 2122 and the side plate guide portion 1212 cooperate to guide the stop portion 2121 of the locking tongue 212 into the locking groove 1211, and the side plate guide portion 1212 protrudes from the locking groove 1211 to restrict the movement of the stop portion 2121 in the height direction of the long side plate 12. At the same time, the force exerted by the reset member 22 on the guide block 211 keeps the stop portion 2121 in the fixed locking groove 1211. In this way, the self-locking device 2 locks and fixes the lid 14 and the long side plate 12. When unlocking is required, the locking tongue 212 is forced away from the hinge side of the lid to overcome the force of the reset member 22 and the stop portion 2121 is disengaged from the locking groove 1211 to achieve unlocking.
[0061] See Figures 10-12 The lid 14 also has a cavity area and a non-cavity area. The cavity area is a closed cavity structure that can enhance the strength of the lid 14. At least a portion of the cavity area surrounds at least a portion of the non-cavity area to form the reinforcing area. The cavity area can be formed by injection molding or welding. The cavity area is present on the side edge of the lid where the latch is provided and on the side edge of the lid hinged to the side plate.
[0062] Specific examples Figure 12 As shown, the cavity region can be as follows: Figure 12 The illustrated structure includes a first cavity 1441, a second cavity 1442, and a third cavity 1443. The first cavity 1441 extends along the length of the lid and is located on the edge of the lid 14 where the self-locking device 2 is located, thus strengthening the lid on the locking side. The second cavity 1442 also extends along the length of the lid and is located on the edge of the lid 14 where the hinge is located, thus strengthening the lid on the hinged side. The third cavity 1443 extends along the width of the lid and is located between the first cavity 1441 and the second cavity 1442. The number of third cavities 1443 can be designed according to the length of the lid to further strengthen it.
[0063] The area surrounded by the two third cavities 1443, the first cavity 1441, and the second cavity 1442 is the reinforcement zone 1444. This zone prevents the lid 14 from deforming due to water accumulation, thus ensuring timely drainage. The two third cavities 1443, the first cavity 1441, and the second cavity 1442 can be an interconnected integral structure or independent cavities that are not interconnected. Furthermore, the cavity area is not limited to... Figure 12 The structure of the cavity, such as the third cavity 1443, can be set at an angle, or the third cavity 1443 can be arc-shaped, and the first cavity 1441 and the second cavity 1442 are the same.
[0064] In other embodiments, the cavity region can have other structures, such as a ring structure. In this case, the central area surrounded by the ring structure is a reinforcing area. The ring structure is an integral chamber, i.e., a single, continuous structure. Of course, it can also be formed by splicing together multiple independent cavity parts to form a ring-shaped cavity region. Understandably, the reinforcing area formed around the cavity region can have multiple shapes, such as a triangular shape or a racetrack shape. In this case, the cavity region can also be a single, continuous structure or multiple independent cavity parts that are not interconnected.
[0065] See Figures 13-15 The lid 14 and the corresponding side panels are provided with engaging structures, which are divided into a first engaging structure corresponding to the short side panel and a second engaging structure corresponding to the long side panel. (See also...) Figure 14 The first interlocking structure of the lid corresponding to the short side plate is an eave 145 extending longitudinally along the lid 14. The eave 145 overlaps the upper end 131 of the short side plate and forms a cover. The eave 145 can limit the deformation and collapse of the lid and limit the separation of the lid eave from the upper end of the side plate. It can improve the support capacity of the lid and the ability to resist deformation and indentation after being subjected to force, thereby preventing the lock from failing due to the deformation of the lid.
[0066] See Figure 15 The corresponding interlocking structure on one side of the long side plate is a first interlocking surface 144 formed by the edge of the lid. The first interlocking surface 144 extends from the edge of the lid 14 towards the base. The upper end of the long side plate 12 is provided with a second interlocking surface 122, which extends along the depth direction of the box body. The upper end of the long side plate 12 is provided with a stop portion 123 that abuts against the bottom of the first interlocking surface 144. When the lid is closed, the first interlocking surface 144 is located inside the second interlocking surface 122, and the bottom of the first interlocking surface 144 abuts against the stop portion 123, so that the first interlocking surface 144 and the upper end of the long side plate 12 interlock and support the lid on one side of the long side plate. This improves the support capacity of the lid and its resistance to deformation and denting under force, thereby preventing the latch from failing due to lid deformation.
[0067] See Figure 16 and Figure 17 The first interlocking structure of the lid on the side corresponding to the short side plate is a first groove 146 with a U-shaped cross section. The upper end of the short side plate is provided with a second groove 132 that cooperates with the first groove 146. The second groove 132 is also a U-shaped cross section. When the lid 14 is closed, the first groove 146 and the second groove 132 interlock with each other, thereby improving the support capacity of the lid and its resistance to deformation and denting after being subjected to force, thus preventing the latch from failing due to deformation of the lid.
[0068] Similarly, the first interlocking structure of the lid on the side corresponding to the long side plate is also a third groove 147 with a U-shaped cross section. The upper end of the long side plate is provided with a fourth groove 124 that cooperates with the third groove 147. The fourth groove 124 is also a U-shaped structure. When the lid 14 is closed, the third groove 147 and the fourth groove 124 interlock with each other, thereby improving the support capacity of the lid and its resistance to deformation and denting after being subjected to force, thus preventing the latch from failing due to deformation of the lid.
[0069] See Figure 18 and Figure 19 The lid is equipped with a limiting structure that cooperates with the side panel. When the lid closes the opening of the container, the limiting part of the lid is located inside the limiting part of the side panel, realizing the interlocking between the lid and the side panel. Through the circumferential interlocking, it forms support and limiting for the lid from multiple directions, thereby improving the supporting capacity of the lid and its ability to resist deformation and denting after being subjected to force.
[0070] Specifically, see Figure 19 The lid 14 has a first lid limiting portion 148 extending from the edge corresponding to the short side plate 13, and the upper surface of the short side plate 13 has a short side plate limiting portion 133 that matches the first lid limiting portion 148. The lid 14 has a second lid limiting portion 149 recessed from the edge corresponding to the long side plate 12, and the upper surface of the long side plate 12 has a long side plate limiting portion 125 extending inwards and matching the second lid limiting portion 149. When the lid 14 closes the container opening, the first lid limiting portion 148 engages with the short side plate limiting portion 133, and the long side plate limiting portion 125 engages with the second lid limiting portion 149, thus achieving an interlocking connection between the lid and the long and short side plates. In this embodiment, the first box cover limiting part 148, the short side plate limiting part 133, the long side plate limiting part 125, and the second box cover limiting part 149 all adopt a T-shaped interlocking structure to achieve interlocking connection.
