[0002] "Handicrafts" refers to modern collectible human figures, but can also refer to models of cars, buildings, videos, plants, insects, ancient creatures, or fictional objects. To ensure proper display and prevent damage, handicrafts are typically placed in display cases or tubes. Traditional display cases usually consist of a fixed base with a transparent cylindrical or cuboid outer casing. While simple in structure, they are functionally limited, cannot be stacked or combined, and offer a poor display effect. Therefore, someone applied for Chinese utility model patent 202221147034.X, entitled "A Modular Assembled Figurine Display and Storage Box," which includes several modularly assembleable individual storage boxes. Each individual storage box includes a cup body and a bottom cover. The cup body is detachably placed on top of the bottom cover and is integrated with the bottom cover to form a square-shaped hollow box. The inside of the cup body has a square-shaped cavity with an open bottom and rounded corners on all four internal edges. The top edge of the cup body has a protrusion. The lower surface of the bottom cover has a concave-convex seat that matches the protrusion. Two adjacent individual storage boxes are positioned by the concave-convex seat of the upper individual storage box engaging with the protrusion of the lower individual storage box. The upper surface of the bottom cover has a display storage tray with rounded corners that match the outline of the bottom opening of the cavity. The modular assembly allows for the simultaneous use of multiple individual storage boxes and the ability to change their form. However, the structure has the following drawbacks: First, the detachable and freely snap-fit ​​assembly of multiple individual storage boxes, achieved by using the protrusion on the top of the main body of the box and the concave protrusion seat at the bottom of the box cover, results in poor reliability of the snap-fit ​​assembly.
