[0054] Now, refer to the appendix Figures 1 to 3 Exemplary embodiments according to the present invention will be described in more detail below.
[0055] This utility model provides a container, which includes a container body 200 and a door body 100. For example... Figure 1As shown, a single door 100 includes a first side 1 and a second side 2 opposite to each other in a first direction D1. Both the first side 1 and the second side 2 are pivotally connected to the housing 200 via pivot shafts. It is understood that the first side 1, the second side 2, and the housing 200 are all provided with shaft holes for the pivot shaft to pass through. The pivot shaft is detachable. Detachable pivot shaft means that the pivot shaft can be disassembled to at least detach from the shaft holes of the door 100 (first side 1, second side 2). For example, the pivot shaft can be disassembled to detach from the shaft holes of both the door 100 and the housing 200. Therefore, in the detached state of the pivot shaft of the first side 1, the first side 1 is disconnected from the housing 200; in the detached state of the pivot shaft of the second side 2, the second side 2 is disconnected from the housing 200.
[0056] The door 100 includes an open state that connects the interior of the container 200 (i.e., the internal space of the container enclosed by the walls of the container 200) to the outside, and a closed state that closes the interior of the container 200 to the outside (at the door 100). In the open state, either the first side 1 or the second side 2 is disconnected from the container 200. That is, after the pivot of the first side 1 is removed, the first side 1 is disconnected from the container 200, and the door 100 can pivot around the pivot of the second side 2; after the pivot of the second side 2 is removed, the second side 2 is disconnected from the container 200, and the door 100 can pivot around the pivot of the first side 1.
[0057] It should be noted that the door body 100 is typically set to a roughly rectangular shape, but it can also be set to other shapes. When the door body 100 is set to a roughly rectangular shape, the first direction D1 can be set to either the length direction of the door body 100 or the width direction of the door body 100. The door body 100 can be set along the entire length of the container or it can be set partially. For example, when the door body 100 is set as a half-open door and is located on the side wall of the container body 200, the dimension of the door body 100 in the height direction of the container is smaller than the height of the side wall of the container body 200.
[0058] According to the container of this utility model, when the pivot shafts on both sides of the door 100 are installed on the door 100 and the container body 200, the door 100 is in a closed state; after removing the pivot shaft on one side of the door 100, the door 100 can be pivoted open around the pivot shaft on the other side; after removing the pivot shafts on both sides, the door 100 can be removed. Therefore, the door 100 can be pivoted open from one side or the other side, and is easy to assemble and disassemble, making it more convenient to use.
[0059] Optionally, the pivot connecting the door 100 and the housing 200 is a removable pin. The first side 1 and the second side 2 are respectively provided with a first pin seat 10, and the housing 200 is provided with a second pin seat 20 corresponding to the first pin seat 10. The first pin seat 10 and the second pin seat 20 are provided with shaft holes C for inserting the pin (e.g., ...). Figure 3 (As shown).
[0060] Understandably, in order to pivotally connect the door 100 and the housing 200 via a pivot shaft, the same pin simultaneously passes through the shaft hole C of at least one first pin seat 10 and the shaft hole C of a corresponding second pin seat 20. The pin has an inserted state and a withdrawn state. In the inserted state, the pin is inserted into the shaft hole C of the first pin seat 10 and the shaft hole C of the second pin seat 20. In the withdrawn state, the pin is withdrawn from the shaft hole C of the first pin seat 10 and the shaft hole C of the second pin seat 20.
[0061] Specifically, the pins include a first pin 30 and a second pin 40. The first pin 30 passes through a first pin seat 10 on the first side portion 1 and a second pin seat 20 on the housing 200, allowing the door 100 to pivot around the first pin 30. The second pin 40 passes through a first pin seat 10 on the second side portion 2 and a second pin seat 20 on the housing 200, allowing the door 100 to pivot around the second pin 40. In other words, when the first pin 30 is inserted and the second pin 40 is removed, the door 100 can pivot around the first pin 30. When the second pin 40 is inserted and the first pin 30 is removed, the door 100 can pivot around the second pin 40.
[0062] To make the pivoting of the door body 100 more stable, at least one of the first side portion 1 and the second side portion 2 is provided with at least two first pin seats 10, and the at least two first pin seats 10 are spaced apart in a second direction D2 different from the first direction D1. The second direction D2 is the same as the axial direction of the shaft hole C. Furthermore, the plurality of first pin seats 10 are evenly distributed along the second direction D2 in the door body 100, which can reduce the pivoting resistance of the door body 100.
[0063] When the first side portion 1 or the second side portion 2 is provided with at least two first pin seats 10, the pin can be configured such that the same pin passes through at least two first pin seats 10. For example, a first pin 30 passes through both first pin seats 10 of the first side portion 1. With this configuration, fewer pins need to be disassembled, thus making the disassembly and installation of pins on the same side more efficient. Of course, the pin can also be configured such that each pin passes through only one first pin seat 10 and one second pin seat 20, making the pin length shorter, saving materials, and facilitating insertion and removal.
[0064] Preferably, the door body 100 includes a door panel 80 and a reinforcing member 70 fixed to the door panel 80. The door panel 80 may also be provided with a frame 81. Both the frame 81 and the reinforcing member 70 serve to strengthen the door panel 80.
[0065] In a preferred embodiment, the first pin seat 10 of the first side 1 and the first pin seat 10 of the second side 2 are respectively located at the two ends of the reinforcing member 70. To enable the door panel 80 to pivot relative to the housing 200, the pivot axis (pin) is located on the outside of the door panel 80. Exemplarily, the reinforcing member 70 extends along a first direction D1 and passes through the frame 81 beyond the edge of the door panel 80, or the frame 81 is provided with a notch to avoid interference between the frame 81 and the reinforcing member 70. More preferably, the door panel 80 may be fixed with at least two reinforcing members 70 spaced apart in a second direction D2. The first pin seat 10 is provided at both ends of the at least two reinforcing members 70.
[0066] like Figure 2 As shown, the first pin seat 10 includes a first seat wall 11 and a second seat wall 12, each having a shaft hole C. The first seat wall 11 and the second seat wall 12 are spaced apart in the axial direction of the shaft hole C. This avoids force concentration at the connection between the door body 100 and the housing 200, which could lead to easy deformation of the pin seat. The first seat wall 11 and the second seat wall 12 can be separate components or an integrally connected component. In a specific embodiment, the reinforcing member 70 is constructed as a square tube, and the first seat wall 11 and the second seat wall 12 are two opposite walls of the square tube.
[0067] For example, the second pin seat 20 includes a first shaft hole portion 21 and a second shaft hole portion 22 respectively provided with shaft holes C, the first shaft hole portion 21 and the second shaft hole portion 22 being spaced apart in the axial direction of the shaft holes C. The first shaft hole portion 21 and the second shaft hole portion 22 can be separate components or they can be connected as an integral component.
[0068] Optionally, the first pin seat 10 is located between the first shaft hole portion 21 and the second shaft hole portion 22, that is, the first seat wall 11 and the second seat wall 12 are located between the first shaft hole portion 21 and the second shaft hole portion 22. In another embodiment, the shaft hole C of the first pin seat 10 and the shaft hole C of the second pin seat 20 can be alternately arranged along the second direction D2. For example, the first seat wall 11 is located between the first shaft hole portion 21 and the second shaft hole portion 22, while the second shaft hole portion 22 is located between the first seat wall 11 and the second seat wall 12.
[0069] The first end of the pin is connected to the door body 100 via a first connector 31, which is convenient to use and prevents the pin from being lost after being pulled out. The first end of the pin is provided with a limiting part, the radial dimension of which is larger than the radial dimension of the shaft hole C.
[0070] More preferably, the container also includes a limiting pin 50, which passes through a second end of the pin shaft opposite to the first end to limit the pin shaft and prevent the pin shaft from accidentally coming out of the pin shaft seat. The second end is the end of the pin shaft that protrudes from the pin shaft seat. The limiting pin 50 is connected to the door body 100 by a second connector 51 to prevent the limiting pin 50 from being lost after being pulled out.
[0071] To facilitate opening and closing the door, handles 60 are provided on the first side 1 and the second side 2 respectively. Specifically, the handles 60 are connected to the door panel 80.
[0072] The container 200 includes, for example, a base frame, a top wall opposite to the base frame, two opposite side walls, and two opposite end walls, enclosing and forming the storage space of the container. The container may include one or more doors 100, which are disposed on at least one of the top wall, side wall, and end wall of the container 200.
