[0027] 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.

[0028] Please see Figures 1-5 The present invention provides a convenient paint bucket base support, including a base frame 1, a support plate 2 at the upper end of the base frame 1, and two support components symmetrically arranged at both ends of the base frame 1.

[0029] The support assembly includes a support frame 3, with a limiting groove 4 at the upper end of the support frame 3, a limiting frame 6 at the lower end of the support frame 3, and bottom wheels 5.

[0030] The tray 2 is symmetrically provided with two positioning grooves 11 and locking rods 12 on both sides. The inner side of the support frame 3 is provided with an arc-shaped groove that fits with both sides of the tray 2. The arc-shaped groove is provided with a positioning block 9 that is inserted into the positioning groove 11. The positioning block 9 is provided with a through hole 10. The locking rod 12 passes through the through hole 10 and is inserted into the positioning groove 11. The locking rod 12 is threadedly connected to the tray 2.

[0031] The limiting frame 6 is provided with a slot 7, and a guide groove 8 is provided inside the slot 7. The outer end of the guide groove 8 passes through the limiting frame 6, and the inner end of the guide groove 8 is a sealing structure. Both ends of the base frame 1 are inserted into the slot 7 and slidably connected with the slot 7. Guide blocks 13 are provided on both sides of the outer end of the base frame 1, which are inserted into the guide groove 8 and slidably cooperate with the guide groove 8.

[0032] The lower end of the support frame 3 is symmetrically provided with two limiting frames 6 and two bottom wheels 5, and all of the bottom wheels 5 are universal wheels.

[0033] The tray 2 is fixed to the upper end of the base frame 1 by screws.

[0034] Device unfolding operation: Loosen the locking rods 12 on both sides of the support plate 2 so that they can exit from the through hole 10 of the positioning block 9 and allow the positioning block 9 to disengage from the positioning groove 11.

[0035] The support frame 3 is provided with a handle 15 on its outer side.

[0036] Hold the handle 15 on the outside of the support frame 3 and pull it outward to pull the positioning block 9 out of the positioning groove 11 of the tray 2. At this time, the arc-shaped groove on the inside of the support frame 3 separates from the two sides of the tray 2.

[0037] There is a frictional damping force between the guide block 13 and the guide groove 8.

[0038] As it is pulled, the limiting frame 6 slides along the base frame 1, and the guide blocks 13 at both ends of the base frame 1 slide synchronously in the guide groove 8 of the limiting frame 6 until the guide block 13 touches the sealing structure at the inner end of the guide groove 8 (an ordinary stop block can be used, and it is an integrated structure with the limiting frame 6). The two support frames 3 are fully extended and remain stable (the positioning is achieved by the frictional damping force between the guide block 13 and the guide groove 8).

[0039] Placement and securing of paint buckets:

[0040] Multiple buffer pads 14 are bonded to the upper surface of the tray 2 and the inside of the limiting groove 4.

[0041] Align the bottom of the paint bucket with the limiting groove 4 at the upper end of the support frame 3 and place it stably there. The buffer pad 14 on the upper surface of the tray 2 contacts the bottom of the paint bucket, and the buffer pad 14 inside the limiting groove 4 fits against the bucket wall, forming a stable support together. At this time, the limiting groove 4 just covers the bottom of the paint bucket, so when it moves, the two support frames 3 will not shake.

[0042] Device storage operation: After taking out the paint bucket, push the handle 15 in the opposite direction to make the support frame 3 retract inward, the limit frame 6 slide back along the base frame 1, and the guide block 13 moves in the opposite direction in the guide groove 8 until the positioning block 9 is inserted into the positioning groove 11 of the tray 2, and the arc groove re-fits the two sides of the tray 2.

[0043] Tighten the locking rod 12 so that it passes through the through hole 10 of the positioning block 9 and is inserted into the positioning groove 11, thus fixing the support frame 3 and the tray 2 and realizing the storage of the device.

[0044] Movement and transfer: The entire device can be moved flexibly by using the bottom wheels 5 (universal wheels) at the lower end of the support frame 3 to move the paint bucket without the need for manual handling.

[0045] In the unfolded state, the tray 2 and the two support frames 3 form a three-point support structure, which, together with the limiting groove 4, limits the position of the paint bucket and ensures that it is placed stably. The buffer pad 14 can reduce the friction and collision between the paint bucket and the device, which not only protects the paint bucket from damage, but also extends the service life of the device itself.

[0046] The tray 2 is fixed to the base frame 1 with screws, which is secure and easy to disassemble and maintain; the components are precisely matched, such as the fit between the arc groove and the tray 2, and the sliding between the guide block 13 and the guide groove 8, to ensure the overall stability and durability of the device.

[0047] When folded, it is compact and easy to store; when unfolded, it can accommodate paint buckets of various sizes, meeting the needs of temporary placement and transfer of paint buckets in different construction scenarios, making it highly practical.

[0048] The base wheel 5 can be a lightweight swivel wheel with brakes. The recommended model is a 3-inch TPU self-locking swivel wheel (model: SW-301).

[0049] For cushioning pad 14, EVA foam cushioning pad is recommended.
