[0023] 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.

[0024] Example:

[0025] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 4 A mini toolbox with a folding lid in this embodiment includes a box body 2 and side covers 3 and an inner box 4 that are slidably disposed on the corresponding sides of the box body 2. A cavity 8 is provided through the corresponding sides of the box body 2. There are at least four cavities 8. A flat spring 7 is provided inside the cavity 8. A sliding rod 5 is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the flat spring 7. The end of the sliding rod 5 away from the flat spring 7 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the side cover 3.

[0026] At least four spring sleeves 10 are provided on the lower surface of the inner side of the box 2. Each spring sleeve 10 is provided with a vertical spring 11. A guide post 9 is provided through the middle of the upper end of each spring sleeve 10. A connecting ring 12 is fixedly provided at the upper end of two of the guide posts 9. The two connecting rings 12 are rotatably connected to a rotating shaft 13. The rotating shaft 13 is fixedly connected to a flip cover 1.

[0027] First, the toolbox is initially a standard cuboid. To open it, you need to press buttons 18 on both sides simultaneously.

[0028] At this time, the vertical spring 11 extends simultaneously, causing the guide post 9 to move upward. Based on the push of the guide post 9, the flip cover 1 moves upward, causing the flat spring 7 to extend simultaneously, causing the slide rod 5 to slide along the cavity 8 to both sides, causing the side cover 3 to open outward, and causing the inner box 4 to slide outward from inside the box body 2, thus achieving the effect of opening the folding part. The design of the folding part improves the utilization rate of space and solves the problems of low space utilization efficiency and excessive volume.

[0029] After the flip cover 1 moves upward, it is manually flipped. Based on the rotational connection between the connecting ring 12 and the rotating shaft 13, the flip cover 1 rotates and opens around the straight line where the rotating shaft 13 is located, so that the flip cover 1 can be opened when the button 18 is pressed, thus solving the problem of inconvenient opening and closing.

[0030] The cavities 8 are set in groups of two, and the two groups of cavities 8 are respectively opened on the front and rear sides of the box 2, and the cavities 8 are wide in the middle and narrow at both ends;

[0031] Two symmetrically distributed slide rods 5 are simultaneously installed inside the cavity 8, and the slide rods 5 can slide inside the cavity 8. A limit ring 6 is fixedly connected to the end of the slide rod 5 near the spring. The limit ring 6 is slightly smaller than the middle part of the cavity 8 and slightly larger than the two sides of the cavity 8.

[0032] Four spring sleeves 10 are respectively set in the corner of the box 2. The inner box 4 is located above the spring sleeves 10. A limit ring 601 is set inside the spring sleeve 10. The limit ring 601 is slightly smaller than the internal space of the spring sleeve 10. The limit ring 601 is slightly larger than the upper opening of the spring sleeve 10. The limit ring 601 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the guide post (9).

[0033] The vertical spring 11 extends inside the spring sleeve 10 and pushes the limiting ring 601 to move upward, causing the guide post 9 to move upward. Based on the design of the limiting ring 601, the limiting ring 601 will not detach from the inside of the spring sleeve 10, thereby limiting the movement distance of the guide post 9.

[0034] The flat spring 7 extends inside the cavity 8 and pushes the limiting ring 6 to move to both sides, causing the slide rod 5 to move to both sides. Based on the design of the cavity 8 and the limiting ring 6, the limiting ring 6 will not detach from the cavity 8, and the slide rod 5 will not completely detach from the cavity 8, thus achieving the position limit of the side cover 3.

[0035] A rotating groove 14 is provided on one side of the flip cover 1. The two ends of the rotating shaft 13 are fixedly connected to the two ends of the rotating groove 14, and the connecting ring 12 can rotate inside the rotating groove 14.

[0036] The side cover 3 is inserted between the flip cover 1 and the box body 2, and the contact part between the side cover 3 and the box body 2 is tightly connected;

[0037] The inner box 4 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the inner buckle 16, the lower surface of the middle part of the flip cover 1 is provided with an inner buckle groove 15 at the corresponding position, the lower surfaces of both sides of the flip cover 1 are fixedly connected to the outer buckle 17, the inner surface of the side cover 3 is provided with an outer buckle groove 19, and the outer surface of the side cover 3 is provided with a button 18.

[0038] The button 18 pushes the outer latch 17 based on the force of pressing, causing the outer latch 17 to disengage from the outer latch groove 19, allowing the vertical spring 11 to extend, causing the flip cover 1 to move upward under the action of the relevant structure, causing the inner latch groove 15 to move upward, causing the inner latch 16 to disengage from the inner latch groove 15, and allowing the flat spring 7 to extend.

[0039] When the flip cover 1 is subjected to force, based on the fixed connection between the rotating shaft 13 and the rotating groove 14, and the rotating connection between the rotating shaft 13 and the connecting ring 12, and the fixed connection between the connecting ring 12 and the guide post 9, the flip cover 1 rotates under the limit of the guide post 9.

[0040] The installation method, connection method, or setting method disclosed in this embodiment are all common mechanical connections.

[0041] Any connection method that can achieve its beneficial effect can be implemented. In addition, all electrical components in this embodiment are electrically connected to the main controller and the power supply. The main controller can be a conventional known device such as a computer that plays a control role. Those skilled in the art can control the electrical components through simple programming. Moreover, the existing public power connection technology is also common knowledge in the field. Therefore, the specific structural composition and working principle will not be described in detail in this embodiment.
