Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of turnover box technology, and more specifically to a foldable crop turnover box. Background Technology

[0002] Collapsible crop turnover boxes are efficient and multifunctional logistics containers designed for the agriculture and logistics industries for transporting and storing crops. They are typically made of durable and lightweight PP plastic, offering good impact resistance and corrosion resistance. Their versatility and environmental potential make them an important tool in modern agriculture.

[0003] The existing folding turnover box, as shown in application number: CN202420625974.8 A foldable turnover box, requires the installation of the middle partition bar and then the outer partition bar when used on bumpy roads. This involves many steps and increases the preparation work before use. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a foldable crop turnover box in order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model specifically adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] This utility model proposes a foldable crop turnover box, including two main boards facing each other, four T-shaped support columns set on both sides of the main boards, two side plates set between the support columns, a locking component installed on the top of the support columns, a fixing component fixed to the bottom of the support columns, and a base connected to the main boards by a hinge.

[0007] The locking component is T-shaped, with a main hole on one side for connecting to the motherboard, a secondary hole on the other side for connecting to the side plate, a column hole at the bottom for connecting to the support column, and a locking threaded hole on the surface for locking the motherboard. The motherboard includes a bottom partition and a top crossbar.

[0008] The crossbar has protrusions on both sides for connecting with the fixing parts, and the protrusions have threaded holes. The crossbar has a concave layer in the middle to increase friction, and a perforated gripping layer is provided above the partition layer and at the bottom of the concave layer.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, the concave layer surface is provided with raised textures to increase friction.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the bottom of the side plate is also connected to the base via a hinge.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the connecting parts between the main board and the side plate and the support column can be folded to the upper layer of the base after disassembly.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] With its detachable connectors, the mainboard and side panels can be folded to the top of the base, significantly reducing storage space and facilitating transportation and storage. T-shaped support columns and locking mechanisms enhance the structural stability of the box, preventing deformation and making it suitable for loading heavier crops. The concave and convex textures on the crossbars increase friction, preventing slippage and accidents during transportation. Attached Figure Description
