Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of painting tools, and in particular to a paint box. Background Technology

[0002] Paint palettes, also called mixing boxes, are tools used for mixing watercolors, gouache, and oils. They are generally made of plastic. The existing standard 42-color 90ml paint boxes have a handle located in the middle of the box. However, the paint boxes are too wide and long, making them difficult to carry. They are also prone to bumping into the body while walking, which may cause the lid to loosen or even fall off, resulting in paint spills. In addition, they take up a lot of space and are not easy to put in a painting bag or other space, making them inconvenient to carry and affecting the user experience. To address the aforementioned issues, prior art patent CN220639393U discloses a portable paint box. It describes a rotating assembly comprising a telescopic rod, a first rotating shaft, a slider, and a second rotating shaft. The upper compartment of an adjacent container has a groove on its side wall that matches the slider. The slider is engaged in the groove and slidably connected to it. The upper end of the telescopic rod is rotatably connected to one end of the first rotating shaft. The end of the first rotating shaft away from the telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the slider. The lower end of the telescopic rod is rotatably connected to one end of the second rotating shaft. The end of the second rotating shaft away from the telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the side wall of the lower compartment of an adjacent container. When laying adjacent containers flat, the upper compartment is first lifted, and then rotated along the second rotating shaft to the side of the lower compartment. The slider can move within the groove, preventing it from being unable to rotate to the side of the adjacent compartment due to its width. The telescopic rod can also adjust the distance between the adjacent compartments when they rotate relative to each other or when the laying operation is completed. However, the existing patented rotating components achieve extension and rotation by locking a slider in a groove, which is complex in structure and has poor stability during extension and rotation, making them difficult to operate.

The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0027] Example 1: This embodiment provides a paint box, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it includes: a housing 1 and a connecting component 2; In this embodiment, three boxes 1 are provided, which are stacked one on top of the other. The boxes 1 are used to store pigments. Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, the box body 1 includes: an outer frame 11, a paint tank 14, a protrusion 15, and a groove 17; The outer frame 11 is rectangular, and a plurality of pigment troughs 14 for storing pigments are formed on the inner side of the outer frame 11. In this embodiment, 14 pigment troughs 14 for storing pigments are formed on the inner side of the outer frame 11, and the pigment troughs 14 exist independently in a grid pattern. Thus, the three boxes 1 constitute 42 pigment troughs 14 to store 42 pigments, forming 42 colors. In other embodiments, the number of pigment troughs 14 can be appropriately increased or decreased, depending on the actual situation. like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, an annular protrusion 15 is formed on the upper part of the outer frame 11; a groove 17 is formed on the lower part of the outer frame 11. In this embodiment, an annular protrusion 15 is formed at the upper edge of the outer frame 11; a groove 17 is formed inward at the lower part of the outer frame 11. When the three boxes 1 are stacked, the protrusion 15 of the lower box 1 of the two adjacent boxes 1 is embedded into the groove 17 of the upper box 1, thereby preventing the upper box 1 from shifting and falling off the lower box 1. At least one connecting component 2 is provided on at least one side wall of the paint box; the connecting component 2 connects the three box bodies 1 together; In this embodiment, two connecting components 2 are provided on both the front and rear side walls of the pigment box. The two connecting components 2 located on the same side are arranged in a stepped manner so that adjacent box bodies 1 can rotate relative to each other. Furthermore, by providing two connecting components 2 on both the front and rear side walls of the pigment box, the box body 1 can be made more stable when rotating, and the connection between the three box bodies 1 can also be made more stable. Specifically, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the connecting component 2 includes: a connector 21 and a slider 22. Connector 21 is rotatably connected to the middle box 1; In this embodiment, the connector 21 includes: a sliding sleeve 211, a sliding cavity 212, and a stop block 214; The middle part of the sliding sleeve 211 is rotatably connected to the middle box 1; Specifically, the sliding sleeve 211 has a first connecting hole 213 in the middle, and a connecting shaft 13 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the middle box 1. The connecting shaft 13 is inserted into the first connecting hole 213 so that the sliding sleeve 211 can be rotatably connected to the middle box 1 with the connecting shaft 13 as the axis. The connecting shaft 13 cannot slide after being inserted into the first connecting hole 213, so as to prevent the sliding sleeve 211 from slipping off the connecting shaft 13. This can be achieved using a structure of a convex ring and an annular groove. For example, a convex ring is formed on the outer wall of the connecting shaft 13, and an annular groove that matches the convex ring is formed in the first connecting hole 213. The convex ring is located in the annular groove, so that the connecting shaft 13 can only rotate in the first connecting hole 213 and cannot slide. The convex ring and annular groove are existing technologies and will not be described in detail here. Sliding sleeve 211 has sliding cavities 212 on both the upper and lower sides; Specifically, the upper and lower sides of the sliding sleeve 211 are provided with square sliding cavities 212. The end of the sliding cavity 212 away from the middle of the sliding sleeve 211 is open, and the front side is also open. The sliding member 22 is located in the sliding cavity 212 and can slide in the sliding cavity 212. Both the upper and lower ends of the sliding sleeve 211 are provided with stop blocks 214; Specifically, the upper and lower ends of the sliding sleeve 211 are fixedly connected with a stop 214. The stop 214 is integrally formed with the sliding sleeve 211 and is located on the front side of the sliding cavity 212. The connector 21 is slidably connected to the upper and lower sides with the sliding parts 22. The upper sliding part 22 is rotatably connected to the upper box 1, and the lower sliding part 22 is rotatably connected to the lower box 1. In this embodiment, the slider 22 includes a slider 221 and a limiting block 222; The slider 221 is rotatably connected to the box 1 and slides within the sliding cavity 212; Specifically, the upper part of the slider 221 of the upper slider 22 has a second connecting hole 223, and the lower part of the slider 221 of the lower slider 22 also has a second connecting hole 223; the outer walls of the bottommost and topmost boxes 1 of the three boxes 1 are fixedly connected with connecting shafts 13, which are inserted into the second connecting holes 223 so that the upper slider 22 is rotatably connected to the upper box 1, and the lower slider 22 is rotatably connected to the lower box 1; the connection method between the connecting shaft 13 and the second connecting hole 223 can be referred to the above, and the connection method between the connecting shaft 13 on the middle box 1 and the first connecting hole 213 is not described here; the slider 221 is inserted into the sliding cavity 212 of the sliding sleeve 211 and can slide within the sliding cavity 212; A limiting block 222 is provided on the side of the slider 221 near the middle of the sliding sleeve 211; the limiting block 222 cooperates with the stop block 214 to restrict the slider 221 from sliding out of the sliding cavity 212.

[0028] Specifically, a limiting block 222 is fixedly connected to the front side of the slider 221 near the middle of the sliding sleeve 211. The limiting block 222 is wedge-shaped and protrudes from the opening on the front side of the sliding cavity 212. When the slider 221 slides away from the middle of the sliding sleeve 211, the limiting block 222 will contact the stop block 214, thereby preventing the slider 221 from moving out of the sliding cavity 212. In summary, when the paint box needs to be used, the operator lifts the topmost box 1 upwards. When the topmost box 1 is lifted, the topmost sliding member 22 moves upwards. When the topmost sliding member 22 reaches its limit position within the sliding sleeve 211, it will cause the sliding sleeve 211 to move upwards. At this time, the bottommost sliding member 22 slides out of the sliding sleeve 211. Then, the operator can rotate the topmost box 1, which in turn rotates the middle box 1, causing both the topmost and middle boxes 1 to rotate relative to the bottommost box 1, thus placing all three boxes 1 in a flat position. Figure 11 As shown in the figure, the operator can then close the three boxes 1 together so that the three boxes 1 come into contact in sequence, and the sliding part 22 also slides into the sliding sleeve 211, thereby reducing the space occupied by the paint box when it is laid flat; the reverse operation can also make the three boxes 1 stacked, thus making it easier to store.

[0029] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the box body 1 also includes: a drawer 12 and a countersunk hole 16; A drawer 12 is slidably connected to the outer frame 11; Specifically, the lower part of the outer frame 11 forms a cavity, and the drawer 12 is housed in the cavity and can slide out or slide in from the cavity. The drawer 12 is used to store paintbrushes and other miscellaneous items. A countersunk hole 16 is provided on the outer wall of drawer 12.

[0030] Specifically, a countersunk hole 16 is formed by the inward recess in the middle of the exposed side of the drawer 12, through which the operator can slide the drawer 12.

[0031] Example 2: like Figure 7 As shown, this embodiment further includes a lid 3 on top of the pigment box in the first embodiment, and the lid 3 covers the upper part of the box body 1; Specifically, a groove 17 is also provided at the bottom of the lid 3. The lid 3 covers the box body 1 through the groove 17 at the bottom and the protrusion 15 on the top box body 1, thereby preventing the pigment inside the top box body 1 from coming into contact with the external environment when stored.

[0032] Example 3: like Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, this embodiment further includes a tote bag in addition to the paint box of the second embodiment; the tote bag is fitted onto the three box bodies 1; The tote bag includes: a bag body 5, several buckle components 6, several handles 7, and a mesh pocket 8; Specifically, the bag body 5 is made of fabric, the buckle assembly 6 is set in two sets, and the handles 7 are also set in two sets; the bag body 5 and the two sets of buckle assemblies 6 form a detachable enclosure structure; the three boxes 1 are located inside the enclosure structure; the two handles 7 are fixedly connected to the upper part of the bag body 5; the buckle assembly 6 is existing technology and will not be described in detail here; the mesh bag 8 is fixedly connected to the bag body 5 and can be used to store items.

[0033] Example 4: like Figure 10 As shown, this embodiment, based on the paint box of the third embodiment, further includes: two binding components, which are used to connect the lid 3 to the bag body 5; the two binding components are located on both sides of the upper part of the paint box; the binding components include: two connecting blocks 4, connecting straps 9 and Velcro components; The upper part of the box lid 3 is provided with several U-shaped connecting blocks 4; Specifically, two connecting blocks 4 are fixedly connected to the upper part of the box cover 3, and the two connecting blocks 4 are in the same straight line; A connecting strap 9 is provided on the bag body 5; Specifically, the connecting strap 9 is fixedly connected to the inside of the bag body 5; The connecting strap 9 passes through the connecting block 4 via the Velcro assembly to connect the lid 3 to the bag body 5.

[0034] Specifically, the Velcro assembly has two sets, one set located between the two connecting blocks 4, and the other set near the snap fastener assembly 6; the Velcro assembly includes a first Velcro 10 and a second Velcro 101; the first Velcro 10 is fixedly connected to the connecting strap 9 and the bag body 5; the connecting strap 9 passes through the connecting block 4 and is attached to the second Velcro 101 through the first Velcro 10, so that the lid 3 is connected to the bag body 5; when the bag body 5 is removed from the three boxes 1, the lid 3 is also removed from the box 1, achieving the effect of convenient use.

[0035] In summary, according to embodiments one through four, this utility model can achieve the following effects: Its compact structure makes it easy to store and carry; The paint box is designed with three stacked boxes 1, combined with the rotating and sliding structure of the connecting component 2, so that the paint box is compact in size when stored, making it easy to put into a small space; when unfolded, it can be laid flat for use, taking up little space, and is suitable for outdoor sketching or indoor creation.

[0036] Stable connection and easy operation The connecting component 2 adopts a structure in which the sliding sleeve 211 and the slider 221 cooperate. Through the limiting design of the stop block 214 and the limiting block 222, the slider 221 is prevented from falling out, ensuring that the box 1 is firmly connected and rotates smoothly during the unfolding and closing process, and the operation is simple and smooth.

[0037] Anti-fall design ensures safe and reliable use. The interlocking structure of protrusions 15 and grooves 17 between the boxes 1 effectively prevents the boxes 1 from being misaligned or falling off when stacked; combined with the design of the binding components and the carrying bag, it further ensures that the lid 3 and the box 1 are not easily loosened during carrying, thus avoiding paint spillage.

[0038] Integrated functions, highly practical The box 1 has a drawer 12 structure for easy storage of auxiliary tools such as paintbrushes; the tote bag is equipped with a mesh pocket 8 and buckle assembly 6 to enhance carrying convenience and storage function; the overall structure takes into account multiple needs of storage, carrying and use.
