Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of toolbox technology, specifically a portable snap-fit toolbox. Background Technology
[0002] Toolboxes play a crucial role in the storage and carrying of various tools. Traditional toolboxes use various connection methods, commonly including simple snap-fit connections, hinged connections with locking mechanisms, and screw fixation.
[0003] However, existing portable snap-fit toolboxes only have a simple interlocking relationship between the buckles and slots, lacking sufficient stability. When the toolbox is frequently moved, such as when workers carry it between different work areas, or when it is subjected to vibrations from vehicle movement during transport, the buckles can gradually loosen due to repeated external forces, causing the connection between the box body and the lid to become less tight. This loosening becomes more pronounced after prolonged use, potentially leading to accidental opening of the toolbox, severely affecting normal use, and even causing tools to spill out, resulting in loss or damage. This also reduces the stability of the connection and the toolbox's sealing performance. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a portable snap-fit toolbox. This portable snap-fit toolbox solves the problem that when the toolbox is frequently moved or subjected to vibrations from vehicle movement during transportation, the snaps are easily loosened by repeated external forces, resulting in a looser connection between the toolbox body and the lid.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0006] A portable snap-fit toolbox includes a box body, a snap-fit block slidably connected to the surface of the box body, a snap-fit rod hinged to the surface of the snap-fit block, and a snap-fit groove formed on the surface of the box body; it also includes a movable component for positioning the snap-fit block; and a movable component for restricting the snap-fit rod; the movable component includes: a fixed shaft fixedly mounted on the surface of the box body, a telescopic rod fixedly mounted inside the fixed shaft, an insert block fixedly mounted inside the telescopic rod, the insert block slidably connected inside the fixed shaft, a sealing shaft fixedly mounted at the bottom of the snap-fit block, an insert shaft fixedly mounted inside the sealing shaft, an insert rod fixedly mounted at the bottom of the insert shaft, an abutment block fixedly mounted at the bottom of the insert rod, and a movable block slidably connected to the surface of the insert rod.
[0007] Preferably, a fixed spring is fixedly installed on the surface of the telescopic rod, and a movable spring is fixedly installed at the bottom of the movable block, with the movable spring fixedly installed on the surface of the insert rod.
[0008] Preferably, the moving component includes: a sliding plate that is slidably connected to the surface of the housing, a trigger block fixedly installed on the top of the sliding plate, and a connecting spring fixedly installed on the bottom of the sliding plate, the connecting spring being fixedly installed inside the housing.
[0009] Preferably, a connecting plate is fixedly installed on the outer side of the skateboard, a sliding plate is slidably connected inside the connecting plate, and a return spring is fixedly installed on the inner side of the sliding plate.
[0010] Preferably, the moving components are provided in two sets, and both sets of moving components are symmetrically arranged with the center line of the box as the axis of symmetry.
[0011] Preferably, the fixed shaft has a sliding groove inside, and the connecting plate has a strip groove on its top.
[0012] Preferably, the cross-section of the insert block is rectangular, and the cross-sections of the trigger block and the sliding plate are both triangular.
[0013] By employing the above technical solution, this utility model provides a portable snap-fit toolbox. It possesses at least the following beneficial effects:
[0014] (1) By setting the movable components, the present invention allows the manual pulling of the locking block to slide downwards, thereby driving the sealing shaft to slide downwards. When the sealing shaft slides downwards, it will be inserted into the surface of the fixed shaft. When the sealing shaft slides, it will also drive the insertion shaft, the insertion rod, and the abutment block to slide downwards. When the abutment block slides downwards and moves into the interior of the fixed shaft, it will abut against the insertion block, causing the insertion block to move inside the fixed shaft. After the movement is completed, the insertion block will reset under the action of the fixed spring on the surface of the telescopic rod, so that the insertion block is locked onto the surface of the insertion rod for fixation. This prevents the locking part from becoming loose after frequent movement of the toolbox, vibration, or long-term use, thus improving the connection stability and enhancing the sealing performance.
[0015] (2) By setting up the moving component, the trigger block is driven to slide the slide plate, connecting plate and sliding plate at the bottom of the trigger block downward. When the lever moves to the back of the trigger block, the slide plate will reset under the action of the connecting spring, so that the slide plate drives the trigger block to move upward. When the slide plate resets, it will drive the connecting plate to reset, so that the sliding plate moves upward. When the sliding plate moves downward, it will abut against the bottom of the lever. Through the lever's abutment against the sliding plate, the sliding plate will move away from its center point on the surface of the connecting plate. When the connecting plate resets, the sliding plate will also reset under the action of the reset spring, so that the sliding plate moves to the top of the lever for restriction, preventing the lever from accidentally coming out of the slot, improving the stability of use and extending the service life of the structure.

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model. Example 1
[0025] A portable card-connecting toolbox, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, it includes a box body 1, a locking block 2 slidably connected to the surface of the box body 1, a locking rod 3 hinged to the surface of the locking block 2, and a locking groove 4 opened on the surface of the box body 1;
[0026] It also includes active component 5, used to position card block 2;
[0027] The moving component 6 is used to restrict the lever 3;
[0028] First, the movable component 5 includes: a fixed shaft 51, which is fixedly installed on the surface of the housing 1; a telescopic rod 52 is fixedly installed inside the fixed shaft 51; an insert block 53 is fixedly installed inside the telescopic rod 52; the insert block 53 is slidably connected inside the fixed shaft 51; a sealing shaft 54 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the locking block 2; an insert shaft 55 is fixedly installed inside the sealing shaft 54; an insert rod 56 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the insert shaft 55; an abutment block 57 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the insert rod 56; and a movable block 511 is slidably connected to the surface of the insert rod 56. The sealing shaft 54 can be inserted into the surface of the fixed shaft 51 to improve the sealing effect of the movable component 5.
[0029] Secondly, a fixed spring 58 is fixedly installed on the surface of the telescopic rod 52, and a movable spring 59 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the movable block 511. The movable spring 59 is fixedly installed on the surface of the insert rod 56. The movable spring 59 on the surface of the insert rod 56 can achieve the effect of resetting after the movable block 511 has moved. When the movable block 511 moves, it will abut against the insert block 53 again to achieve the effect of contact fixation.
[0030] In this embodiment, by setting the movable component 5, manually pulling the locking block 2 downwards causes the sealing shaft 54 to slide downwards. When the sealing shaft 54 slides downwards, it will be inserted into the surface of the fixed shaft 51. When the sealing shaft 54 slides, it will also cause the insertion shaft 55, the insertion rod 56, and the abutment block 57 to slide downwards. When the abutment block 57 slides downwards and moves into the interior of the fixed shaft 51, it will abut the insertion block 53, causing the insertion block 53 to move inside the fixed shaft 51. After the movement is completed, the insertion block 53 is reset under the action of the spring 58 fixed on the surface of the telescopic rod 52, so that the insertion block 53 is locked into the surface of the insertion rod 56 for fixation. This prevents the locking part from easily loosening after frequent movement of the toolbox, vibration, or long-term use, thus improving the connection stability and enhancing the sealing performance. Example 2
[0031] like Figures 5-6 As shown, the moving component 6 includes: a sliding plate 61, which is slidably connected to the surface of the housing 1; a trigger block 62 is fixedly installed on the top of the sliding plate 61; and a connecting spring 63 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the sliding plate 61, which is fixedly installed inside the housing 1.
[0032] Furthermore, a connecting plate 64 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the sliding plate 61, and a sliding plate 65 is slidably connected inside the connecting plate 64. A return spring 66 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the sliding plate 65. The return spring 66 provided on the inner side of the sliding plate 65 can facilitate the reset of the sliding plate 65 after it has moved.
[0033] Finally, the moving components 6 are provided in two sets, and both sets of moving components 6 are symmetrically arranged with the center line of the housing 1 as the axis of symmetry. The fixed shaft 51 has a sliding groove 510 inside, which facilitates the sliding of the insert 53 inside the fixed shaft 51. The top of the connecting plate 64 has a strip groove 610, which facilitates the sliding of the sliding plate 65 inside the connecting plate 64. The cross-section of the insert 53 is rectangular, and the cross-sections of the trigger block 62 and the sliding plate 65 are triangular. The rectangular insert 53, the triangular trigger block 62, and the triangular sliding plate 65 can improve the resistance effect of the abutment block 57 and the moving block 511 on the insert 53, as well as the resistance effect of the lever 3 on the trigger block 62 and the sliding plate 65.
[0034] In this embodiment, the moving component 6, by abutting the trigger block 62, causes the slide plate 61, connecting plate 64, and sliding plate 65 at the bottom of the trigger block 62 to slide downwards. When the locking rod 3 moves to the back of the trigger block 62, the slide plate 61 will reset under the action of the connecting spring 63, causing the slide plate 61 to drive the trigger block 62 to move upwards. After the slide plate 61 resets, it will drive the connecting plate 64 to reset, causing the sliding plate 65 to move upwards. When the sliding plate 65 moves downwards, it will abut against the bottom of the locking rod 3. Through the abutment of the locking rod 3 against the sliding plate 65, the sliding plate 65 will move away from its center point on the surface of the connecting plate 64. After the connecting plate 64 resets, the sliding plate 65 will also reset under the action of the reset spring 66, causing the sliding plate 65 to move to the top of the locking rod 3 for restriction, preventing the locking rod 3 from accidentally dislodging from the slot 4, improving the stability of use, and extending the service life of the structure.
[0035] In use, this portable snap-fit toolbox allows for manual upward swing of the locking lever 3 on the surface of the locking block 2 when the box body 1 is closed. This moves the lever 3 into the slot 4 to seal the box body 1 and the lid. When the lever 3 is in the slot 4, the locking block 2 can be manually pulled downward to lock the lever 3 into the slot 4. As the locking block 2 slides downward, it also causes the sealing shaft 54 to slide downward, interlocking with the surface of the fixed shaft 51. Furthermore, the sliding of the sealing shaft 54 causes the insertion shaft 55 and the insertion rod 56 to slide downward. The downward sliding of the insertion rod 56 causes the abutment block 57 to slide downward. When the abutment block 57 slides downward and moves into the fixed shaft 51, it first abuts against the insertion block. The rectangular section of 53 allows the insert block 53 to move towards the inner wall of the fixed shaft 51 via the telescopic rod 52. When the abutment block 57 moves to the bottom of the insert block 53, it releases the abutment on the insert block 53, allowing the insert block 53 to reset under the action of the spring 58 on the surface of the telescopic rod 52. This causes the insert block 53 to be locked onto the surface of the insert rod 56 for fixation, preventing the locking part from loosening after frequent movement, vibration, or long-term use of the toolbox. For example, when carrying the toolbox on a bumpy road, the constant shaking may cause the locking rod 3 to gradually disengage from the slot 4, resulting in loose connections between the parts of the box 1, affecting its normal use, and even causing the tools inside the box to fall out. This improves the connection stability and enhances the sealing performance.
[0036] When lever 3 swings upward, it will also abut against the surface of trigger block 62. By abutting the triangular facet of the triangular trigger block 62, it causes the slide plate 61 at the bottom of trigger block 62 to slide downward inside the housing 1. When slide plate 61 slides downward, it will cause connecting plate 64 and sliding plate 65 to slide downward. When lever 3 moves to the back of trigger block 62, slide plate 61 will return to its original position under the action of connecting spring 63. This causes slide plate 61 to move trigger block 62 upward. After slide plate 61 returns to its original position, it will cause connecting plate 64 to return to its original position. When the connecting plate 64 is reset, it will drive the sliding plate 65 to move upward. When the sliding plate 65 moves downward, it will abut against the bottom end of the locking rod 3. The abutment of the locking rod 3 against the sliding plate 65 will cause the sliding plate 65 to move away from its center point on the surface of the connecting plate 64. When the connecting plate 64 is reset, the sliding plate 65 will also be reset under the action of the reset spring 66, so that the sliding plate 65 moves to the top of the locking rod 3 for restriction, preventing the locking rod 3 from accidentally dislodging from the slot 4, improving the stability of use and extending the service life of the structure.
