[0029] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] In industrial production, there are often large tools and equipment that need to be properly stored. Due to their heavy weight, moving them requires a lot of manpower and resources. In addition, many tools and equipment need to be used in sets, and it may be necessary to retrieve them from multiple toolboxes, making the entire handling and transfer process very inconvenient.

[0031] This utility model provides a detachable toolbox, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the toolbox includes a box body 1 and a box cover 2 hinged thereto. The surface of the box cover 2 away from the box body 1 is provided with a plurality of mortises 3. The surface of the box body 1 away from the box cover 2 is provided with a plurality of tenons 4 corresponding to the positions of the mortises 3. A locking component is also provided on one side of the box body 1 so that adjacent toolboxes can be locked together.

[0032] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, as Figure 1As shown, the toolbox can be used individually. The box body 1 and the lid 2 are hinged together, meaning the lid 2 can be flipped along one side of the box body 1. When multiple toolboxes are present, as shown... Figure 2 As shown, for two adjacent toolboxes, the tenon 4 on the box body 1 of one toolbox can be set in the mortise 3 of the other toolbox corresponding to its position. After the two adjacent toolboxes are combined, they are locked together by the locking component on one side of the box body 1, so that they can quickly form a whole. This allows multiple toolboxes to be placed in a constrained manner, which optimizes the fixed position management on site and also makes it convenient for operators to take parts from multiple toolboxes for joint use.

[0033] Specifically, such as Figure 1 , Figure 4 as well as Figure 5 As shown, the locking assembly includes a latch and a fastener on the housing 1. The fastener is located on one side of the latch. The latch can be connected to the fastener on an adjacent toolbox. The latch includes a connecting rod 5 and a pull ring 6 installed on the connecting rod 5. The connecting rod 5 is movably connected to the housing 1. The pull ring 6 has a telescopic member sleeved on the connecting rod 5. One end of the telescopic member abuts against the end of the connecting rod 5, and the other end abuts against the end of the pull ring 6.

[0034] It should be noted that the connecting rod 5 is movably connected to the box 1, so that it can rotate around the box 1 and lock with the adjacent toolbox, while the telescopic part is used to maintain the locked state.

[0035] Furthermore, the fasteners are two rivets 7 arranged sequentially on the housing 1 in a vertical direction. The pull ring 6 has a straight segment that can be set between the two rivets 7 and an arc segment located on both sides of the straight segment. The arc segment matches the outer contour of the rivet 7. The connecting rod 5 is movably connected to the housing 1 through the connecting ring 8. The connecting rod 5 has an L-shaped structure. The diameter of the connecting rod 5 is smaller than the inner diameter of the connecting ring 8. The end of the connecting rod 5 located inside the connecting ring 8 also has a limiting plate. The diameter of the limiting plate is larger than the inner diameter of the connecting ring 8.

[0036] It should be noted that the connecting ring 8 set on the box 1 is used as a connecting part. One end of the L-shaped connecting rod 5 is movable and limited inside the connecting ring 8, which makes it convenient for the operator to rotate and lift the pull ring 6. The pull ring 6 can be rotated between the two rivets 7 on the adjacent toolbox in the lifted state. The straight section of the pull ring 6 is placed between the two rivets 7. Under the pulling force of the telescopic part, the arc sections on both sides of the pull ring 6 contact the rivets 7, thus completing the locking between the two adjacent toolboxes and making them a whole.

[0037] In one embodiment, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the telescopic component is spring 9. When the latch is connected to the fixing component on the adjacent toolbox, spring 9 is in a stretched state.

[0038] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a telescopic pull rod 10 is provided on the top of the box body 1, a handle 11 is also provided on the top of the box body 1, and multiple casters 12 are installed on the bottom of the box body 1. One side of the box body 1 is hinged to the box cover 2 by multiple hinges.
