[0026] as follows:

[0027] Please see the appendix Figure 1-8 ,

[0028] The main structure includes a columbarium body (1) consisting of a tower body (11) and a tower top (10) and a tower base (12) respectively located at the upper and lower ends of the tower body (11). The tower body (11) has detachable and replaceable side plates (110) on both sides via mounting components (2). The mounting components (2) include a fixing plate (20) connected to the back of the side plate (110) and a connecting plate (21) connected to the fixing plate (20). One end of the connecting plate (21) is bent vertically to one side to form a hook (22). The tower body (11) has mounting holes (1110) on both sides for the connecting plate (21) and the hook (22) to extend into and be hung.

[0029] The working principle is as follows:

[0030] The proposed columbarium with a replaceable panel structure comprises a tower body (11), a tower top (10), and a tower base (12). Removable and replaceable side panels (110) are installed on both sides of the tower body (11) via mounting brackets (2). The mounting brackets (2) include a fixing plate (20) connected to the back of the side panel (110) and a connecting plate (21) with hooks (22). Welding ensures a stable connection. Mounting holes (1110) are provided on both sides of the tower body (11). The connecting plate (21) and hooks (22) can be inserted into the holes to complete the mounting, enabling rapid installation and removal of the side panels (110). The surface of the side panels (110) features an information display area, supporting the engraving or printing of diverse content such as the deceased's life story and family genealogy, and allowing for subsequent additions and updates. The interior of the tower body (11) consists of multiple cabinets for holding cremated remains. Hanging plates (111) are installed on the outside of the cabinets to fix the hanging holes (1110). The side frames formed by the two opposite extensions of the side plates (110) can frame the hanging plates (111), further improving the assembly stability. The side plates (110) adopt an integral cast marble slab structure, which is both beautiful and durable.

[0031] The modular design simplifies the assembly process, allowing users to replace the side panel (110) without the need for professional tools. This solves the problems of solidified decoration and difficult maintenance of traditional containers, while providing flexible technical support for personalized commemorative information display.

[0032] The assembly and disassembly methods for the hanging mount can be as follows:

[0033] During assembly, clean the surfaces of the mounting plates (111) on both sides of the tower body (11), confirm the position of the mounting holes (1110), weld the fixing plate (20) of the mounting component (2) to the back of the side plate (110), ensure that the vertical bending direction of the connecting plate (21) and the hook (22) is correct, hold the side plate (110) and align the connecting plate (21) and the hook (22) with the mounting hole (1110), push it horizontally until the hook (22) is fully inserted into the hole, press the side plate (110) down lightly, and use the bending structure of the hook (22) to snap into the inner wall of the mounting hole (1110). At this time, the side frame will simultaneously frame both sides of the mounting plate (111) to complete the fixing.

[0034] When disassembling, gently lift the edge of the side plate (110) to separate the side frame from the mounting plate (111), pull the side plate (110) upward, and drive the hook (22) to exit vertically from the mounting hole (1110). At the same time, move the connecting plate (21) horizontally outward to completely remove the hook (22) from the mounting hole (1110), and pull out the side plate (110) smoothly to avoid collision with the mounting component (2) or the tower body (11) structure.

[0035] Reference Appendix Figure 6 In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the side panel (110) has an information display area on its surface.

[0036] The information display area on the side panel (110) can be used to carve or print personalized commemorative content such as the deceased's name, life story, and family genealogy. Users can change the side panel (110) or update the display information at any time according to the needs of the ancestral worship. This retains the cultural carrying function of traditional containers and also solves the problem of fixed decorative content, flexibly meeting the commemorative needs of different scenarios.

[0037] Reference Appendix Figure 8 In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the interior of the tower body (11) is composed of various cabinets for holding cremated remains, and a hanging plate (111) for hanging is provided on the outside of the cabinet, with hanging holes (1110) opened on the hanging plate (111).

[0038] In this technical solution, the cabinet inside the tower body (11) is used to store cremated remains, and the mounting plate (111) on the outside of the cabinet is specially designed to fix the side plate (110). The mounting holes (1110) on the mounting plate (111) cooperate with the hooks (22) on the side plate (110), which not only ensures the stability of the installation of the side plate (110), but also allows for disassembly or replacement without damaging the main structure of the tower body (11). This ensures that the external decoration adjustment and the internal cremated remains storage do not interfere with each other, simplifies the operation process, and ensures the durability of the overall structure.

[0039] Reference Appendix Figure 7 In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the connecting plate (21) and the fixing plate (20) are connected by welding.

[0040] The connecting plate (21) and the fixing plate (20) are connected by welding to ensure a tight fit and prevent the side plate (110) from falling off due to shaking after installation. The welding structure not only enhances the overall strength of the mounting component (2) but also simplifies the assembly steps, ensuring that the hook (22) and the mounting hole (1110) are precisely matched when the side plate (110) is replaced, thus improving the reliability of the operation.

[0041] Reference Appendix Figure 5 In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the two sides of the plate extend backward to form a side frame, and the side frame connects the two side frames of the mounting plate (111).

[0042] In this technical solution, the side frames extending backward on both sides of the side plate (110) can clamp the two sides of the mounting plate (111) to prevent the side plate (110) from shifting or shaking after installation. No additional screws or clips are required, simplifying the assembly process and reducing wear problems caused by loosening during long-term use.

[0043] Reference Appendix Figure 4 In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the side plate (110) is an integrally cast marble slab structure.

[0044] The side panel (110) adopts an integral cast marble slab structure, which avoids splicing gaps, which not only improves the overall strength and damage resistance, but also maintains the beauty and uniformity of the surface texture. At the same time, the natural texture of marble is more in line with the solemn requirements of traditional funeral culture, and it is not easy to deform or crack after long-term use.

[0045] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and do not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. Any equivalent structural transformations made using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings under the concept of the present utility model, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
