Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of container house technology, and more specifically, to a foldable container house. Background Technology
[0002] Container houses are flexible and versatile. They can be combined, stacked, or cut according to needs to be transformed into various types of commercial spaces, such as restaurants, cafes, and retail stores. This characteristic allows container houses to adapt to the size and style requirements of different markets.
[0003] However, when containers are combined to form the required type of commercial space, in order to ensure the connectivity between multiple containers, the opposing surfaces of two containers need to be eliminated. However, depending on the requirements of the actual placement site, the containers need to be combined in a square or rectangular manner. However, when a container missing any side wall is moved to another location and reassembled, the combination type will be limited by the missing surface. When the placement requirements of the site for reuse change, it is impossible to combine it into the required shape, thus reducing the flexibility and versatility of container houses when reused.
[0004] Therefore, a new solution is needed to address this problem. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a foldable container house.
[0006] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a foldable container house, including a container body one and a container body two. The bottom surface of the container body two is provided with a number of universal wheels. The side corners of the container body two are rotatably connected to the side corners of the container body one through a rotating shaft. The side walls of the container body one and the container body two are rotatably connected with doors. When the side wall of the container body two rotates to abut against the side wall of the container body one, the number of doors located on the abutting surfaces of the container body one and the container body two flips in a direction away from each other and is respectively fixed to the inner top surface of the container body one and the container body two.
[0007] The present invention is further configured such that: rotating grooves are provided on the side corners of both the first and second boxes, and a plurality of rotating blocks are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the rotating grooves; the plurality of rotating blocks on the first and second boxes are staggered along the height direction, and the rotating shaft is connected in series within the plurality of rotating blocks that intersect in the first and second boxes.
[0008] The present invention is further configured such that when each of the several rotating blocks located on both sides of the abutting surface of the first and second boxes is connected with a rotating shaft, the rotation of the second box is restricted.
[0009] The present invention is further configured such that: a plurality of snap-fit blocks I are symmetrically arranged on the inner sidewalls of the doors on both sides of the width of the first and second boxes, and a plurality of snap-fit blocks II are symmetrically arranged on the inner sidewalls of the doors on both sides of the length of the first and second boxes.
[0010] The present invention is further configured such that: the inner top surfaces of the first and second boxes are provided with a plurality of snap-fit blocks three and a plurality of snap-fit blocks four, and a limiting rod is detachably connected between the snap-fit blocks one and three, and between the snap-fit blocks two and four.
[0011] The present invention is further configured such that: a support assembly is symmetrically arranged on the inner side wall of the box door, the support assembly includes a bracket, a support rod and a connecting block, the support rod is rotatably connected to the bracket, and the length of the support rod is greater than the distance between the bracket and the connecting block.

[0019] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0020] Example: Foldable container house, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, the container includes container 1 and container 2, both made of aluminum alloy. Aluminum alloy is lightweight and high-strength, reducing the weight of container 1 and container 2 while ensuring structural strength, facilitating their movement and combination. Container 1 has several support pillars fixedly connected to its bottom, and container 2 has four casters 3 arranged in an array on its bottom. Both container 1 and container 2 have a vertically formed fan-shaped rotating groove 6 on their side corners, with the inner wall of the rotating groove 6 fixedly connected to... Several rotating blocks 7, each rotating block 7 being a hollow cylinder, have the same curvature as the rotating groove 6. The rotating blocks 7 on box 1 and box 2 are staggered along the height direction. When the rotating blocks 7 at the side corners of box 2 and box 1 are intersected, and a rotating shaft 4 is inserted into the intersecting rotating blocks 7, the effect of box 2 rotating on box 1 can be achieved. The force applied when rotating box 2 can be reduced by using several casters 3.
[0021] like Figures 1-4 As shown, when one side of container 2 rotates to abut against one side of container 1, rotating shafts 4 are inserted into several rotating blocks 7 located on both sides of the abutting surface, thus restricting the rotation of container 2. By changing the rotation direction of container 2, different combination methods can be formed with container 1, that is, rectangular or square combination methods can be selected according to the needs of the placement site, thereby improving the flexibility and versatility of container houses. Each of the four side walls of container 1 and container 2 is rotatably connected to a door 5. The inner side walls of the doors 5 located on both sides of the width of container 1 and container 2 are symmetrically provided with two hollow snap-fit blocks 8. The doors 5 located on both sides of the length of container 1 and container 2 are also connected to the door 1. Two hollow snap-fit blocks 9 are symmetrically arranged on the inner sidewall. Four hollow snap-fit blocks 10 and four hollow snap-fit blocks 11 are arrayed on the inner top surface of container 1 and container 2. When the container door 5 with snap-fit block 8 is flipped inward to align with snap-fit block 8 and snap-fit block 10, a limiting rod 12 is inserted between snap-fit block 8 and snap-fit block 10, thereby fixing the container door 5 with snap-fit block 8 to the inner top surface of container 1 or container 2. The connection effect can be achieved without removing any side of the container house, so that the container house can be reconfigured when moved to another site, ensuring the flexibility and versatility of the container house.
[0022] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, when the door 5 with the second latching block 9 is flipped inward to align with the second latching block 9 and the fourth latching block 11, a limiting rod 12 is inserted between the second latching block 9 and the fourth latching block 11, thereby fixing the door 5 with the second latching block 9 to the inner top surface of the first box 1 or the second box 2. The length of the limiting rod 12 is greater than the distance between the first latching block 8 and the third latching block 10, and between the second latching block 9 and the fourth latching block 11. When the side wall of the second box 2 rotates to abut against the side wall of the first box 1, the two doors 5 located on the abutting surfaces of the first box 1 and the second box 2 are flipped in a direction away from each other and fixed to the inner top surfaces of the first box 1 and the second box 2 respectively, thereby connecting the first box 1 and the second box 2 together.
[0023] like Figures 1-5 As shown, two sets of support components are symmetrically arranged on the inner side wall of the container door 5. The support components include a bracket 13, a support rod 14, and a connecting block 15. The bracket 13, support rod 14, rotating block 7, rotating shaft 4, snap-fit block 18, snap-fit block 18, snap-fit block 18, and limiting rod 12 are all made of aluminum alloy. One end of the support rod 14 is rotatably connected to the bracket 13. The length of the support rod 14 is greater than the distance between the bracket 13 and the connecting block 15. The connecting block 15 is made of plastic and has a certain friction and deformation capacity. When the support rod 14 is snapped into the connecting block 15, it fits against the container door 5. Depending on the usage scenario, the container door 5 that needs to be opened is flipped outward, and the support rod 14 is pulled out from the connecting block 15 and rotated until it is perpendicular to the ground, thus supporting the container door 5 and opening the interior space of the container house.
[0024] Working principle: Several casters 3 push container 2 until several rotating blocks 7 at its side corners intersect with several rotating blocks 7 at the side corners of container 1. A rotating shaft 4 is inserted into the intersecting rotating blocks 7, causing container 2 to rotate around the rotating shaft 4. The casters 3 reduce the force applied when rotating container 2. The rotation direction of container 2 is selected according to the required container house combination. When one side of container 2 rotates to abut against one side of container 1, the rotating shaft 4 is inserted into the rotating blocks 7 on both sides of the abutting surface. By fixing container 1 and container 2 together, the two doors 5 located on the abutting surfaces of container 1 and container 2 are flipped in a direction away from each other. By inserting a limiting rod 12 between the locking block 18 and locking block 310 or the locking block 29 and locking block 41, the two doors 5 can be fixed to the inner top surfaces of container 1 and container 2 respectively, thereby connecting container 1 and container 2 together. The door 5 that needs to be opened is flipped outward, and the support rod 14 is pulled out from the connecting block 15 and rotated to be perpendicular to the ground to support the door 5, while opening the internal space of the container house.

All technical solutions falling within the scope of this utility model's concept are protected. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, any improvements and modifications made without departing from the principle of this utility model should also be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
