[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are some embodiments of this application, but not all embodiments.

[0018] like Figures 1-5 As shown, one embodiment of this application provides a storage box with an automatic flip-top function, comprising: Storage box 1, the first end of the storage box 1 is provided with an access opening 11, the second end of the storage box 1 is a closed structure, and the first end and the second end of the storage box 1 are arranged back to back; Flip cover 2, with rotating connecting parts 21 on both sides, the rotating connecting parts 21 being rotatably disposed at the first end of the storage box 1; A sliding cover 3 is rotatably disposed in the storage box 1, and slots 31 are provided on both sides of the sliding cover 3; Wherein, after the sliding cover 3 slides into place toward the first end of the storage box 1, the rotating connection part 21 is inserted into the slot 31, and the flip cover 2 and the sliding cover 3 together cover the access opening 11; After the sliding cover 3 slides into place toward the second end of the storage box 1, the rotating connection 21 disengages from the slot 31, and the access opening 11 is arranged outside the sliding cover 3.

[0019] Specifically, the storage box 1 forms a storage space to meet the requirements of storing items. Taking cigarettes as an example, cigarettes are placed in the storage box 1 and can be taken out through the access opening 11. The flip cover 2 is rotatably mounted in the shaft hole 12 provided on the side of the storage box 1 by means of the rotating shaft 22 on the rotating connecting part 21, so as to meet the requirement that the flip cover 2 can be flipped on the storage box 1.

[0020] The storage box 1 is also provided with a sliding cover 3. The sliding cover 3 can slide relative to the storage box 1. Furthermore, the sliding of the sliding cover 3 drives the flip cover 2 to rotate, thereby achieving the purpose of opening and closing the access opening 11.

[0021] The following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, explains the specific usage process of the storage box with automatic flip-top function 2.

[0022] When the storage box with automatic flip-top 2 is closed, the sliding cover 3 slides into place toward the first end of the storage box 1. At this time, the rotating connecting parts 21 on both sides of the flip-top 2 are inserted into the slots 31 on both sides of the sliding cover 3. Under the constraint of the rotating connecting parts 21 and the slots 31, the flip-top 2 tightly covers the access opening 11 of the storage box 1, ensuring that the items (such as cigarettes) inside the storage box 1 are stably stored.

[0023] When the storage box with automatic flip-top 2 is in the process of opening, push the sliding cover 3 to slide it toward the second end of the storage box 1. As the sliding cover 3 moves, the slots 31 on both sides of it gradually separate from the rotating connection part 21 of the flip-top 2. When the sliding cover 3 slides into place, the rotating connection part 21 completely disengages from the slot 31. At this time, the flip-top 2 is unrestrained and automatically flips open under its own gravity. The access opening 11 of the storage box 1 is completely exposed to the outside of the sliding cover 3, and the user can easily access the items inside.

[0024] During the process of closing the storage box with the automatic flip-top 2 function again, the user pushes the sliding cover 3 to slide it in the opposite direction, that is, to move it toward the first end of the storage box 1. During the sliding process, the slot 31 of the sliding cover 3 gradually approaches and re-fits into the rotating connection part 21 of the flip-top 2. When the sliding cover 3 slides into place, the rotating connection part 21 is fully inserted into the slot 31. Under the action and constraint of the sliding cover 3, the flip-top 2 flips up again and covers the access opening 11, and the storage box returns to the closed state.

[0025] By adding a sliding cover 3 and setting a rotating connection part 21 on the flip cover 2 to achieve rotational assembly, during use, the sliding cover 3 moves towards the access opening 11. The sliding cover 3 and the slot 31 of the rotating connection part 21 of the flip cover 2 cooperate with each other. When the storage box is closed, the flip cover 2 is stably constrained and will not be opened arbitrarily due to accidental touch or other misoperation. This effectively solves the problem of the box cover being easily opened due to accidental operation in the prior art and significantly improves the reliability of the storage box. In addition, the slot 31 can also cooperate with the rotating connection part 21 to drive the flip cover 2 to flip and open / close the access opening 11. Users only need to slide the sliding cover 3 to realize the automatic opening and closing of the flip cover 2. The operation method is simple and intuitive, without complicated operation steps, which greatly improves the user's convenience. It is especially suitable for one-handed operation scenarios and improves the user's convenience.

[0026] In one embodiment, the sliding cover 3 includes a cover plate 301, an end plate 302 and two side plates 303. The side plates 303 are disposed on the corresponding side of the cover plate 301, and the end plate 302 is disposed at the end of the cover plate 301. The end plate 302 is connected between the two side plates 303. The side plate 303 is slidably disposed on the side wall of the storage box 1, and the slot 31 is provided at one end of the side plate 303.

[0027] Specifically, in order to effectively cover the access opening 11 and ensure smooth sliding, the sliding cover 3 has side plates 303 on both sides of the cover plate 301. The side plates 303 are used to meet the requirement of smooth sliding on the storage box 1. The sliding cover 3 cooperates with the end plate 302. When the sliding cover 3 closes the access opening 11, the end plate 302 cooperates with the corresponding end of the storage box 1 to limit the movement stroke of the sliding cover 3.

[0028] In one embodiment, the side plate 303 is further provided with a flange structure 32, and the side edge of the storage box 1 away from the surface of the cover plate 301 is provided with a first groove 13, and the flange structure 32 is slidably disposed in the first groove 13 on the corresponding side.

[0029] Specifically, a flange structure 32 is provided on the side of the side plate 303 away from the cover plate 301. The flange structure 32 extends inward along the edge of the side plate 303. Correspondingly, a first groove 13 is provided on the side edge of the surface of the storage box 1 away from the cover plate 301 (i.e., the outer bottom surface or outer side surface of the storage box 1). The shape and size of the flange structure 32 are adapted to the first groove 13, and the flange structure 32 is slidably embedded in the first groove 13 on the corresponding side.

[0030] The sliding engagement between the flange structure 32 and the first sliding groove 13 adds additional guiding constraints to the original sliding of the double side plates 303. The flange structure 32 is embedded in the first sliding groove 13, which can effectively limit the vertical movement and horizontal displacement of the sliding cover 3 during the sliding process, ensuring the straightness of the sliding trajectory and making the opening and closing action of the cover 2 more stable and precise.

[0031] The mating connection between the flange structure 32 and the first sliding groove 13 creates a tighter connection between the sliding cover 3 and the storage box 1. In daily use, even if subjected to external impact or vibration, the sliding cover 3 will not easily detach from the storage box 1, preventing functional failure due to structural loosening and significantly improving the overall structural stability of the storage box.

[0032] In one embodiment, the inner surface of the side plate 303 is further provided with a positioning protrusion 33; The storage box 1 has a positioning slot 14 on its side wall; After the sliding cover 3 slides into place toward the first end of the storage box 1, the positioning protrusion 33 is engaged in the positioning slot 14.

[0033] Specifically, a positioning protrusion 33 is provided on the inner surface of the side plate 303 (i.e. the side surface facing the side wall of the storage box 1). The positioning protrusion 33 extends along the inner surface of the side plate 303 toward the side wall of the storage box 1. Correspondingly, a positioning slot 14 is provided on the side wall of the storage box 1. The shape and size of the positioning protrusion 33 and the positioning slot 14 are adapted to each other, and the two can form a snap-fit ​​engagement.

[0034] When the sliding cover 3 slides into place to close the storage box, the positioning protrusion 33 engages with the positioning slot 14, effectively locking the sliding cover 3. This locking engagement prevents the sliding cover 3 from accidentally sliding under non-human operation conditions (such as slight vibration or impact), avoiding the flip cover 2 from opening and exposing or falling internal items, further improving the reliability of the storage box in the closed state.

[0035] When the positioning protrusion 33 engages with the positioning slot 14, the user will feel a distinct click or feedback force, thus clearly knowing that the sliding cover 3 has slid into place and the flip cover 2 is fully closed. This feedback mechanism allows users to determine the operating status by touch without visual confirmation, improving ease of use and user experience.

[0036] The precise fit between the positioning protrusion 33 and the positioning slot 14 ensures that the sliding cover 3 is in the same preset position every time it is closed, avoiding the problem that the flip cover 2 does not cover the access opening 11 tightly due to the deviation of the sliding position, thus ensuring the sealing performance of the storage box and the protection of the internal items.

[0037] The positioning protrusion 33 and the positioning slot 14 have a simple mating structure design, requiring no complex transmission components; the positioning function can be achieved solely through mechanical engagement. This structure is not easily damaged and can maintain stable performance during long-term use, reducing the failure rate and maintenance costs of the storage box.

[0038] In one embodiment, a strip groove 15 is provided on the side wall of the storage box 1, and a spacer protrusion 16 is provided at one end of the strip groove 15. The spacer protrusion 16 divides the strip groove 15 into the positioning slot 14 and the guide groove (not marked). The positioning protrusion 33 can slide in the guide groove.

[0039] When used in conjunction with the flange structure 32 of the side panel 303 and the first sliding groove 13, this positioning structure forms multiple constraints and positioning mechanisms. The flange structure 32 and the first sliding groove 13 ensure the stability and guidance of the sliding, while the positioning protrusion 33 and the positioning slot 14 ensure the accuracy and locking of the closed position. The cooperation of these structures further enhances the overall performance and reliability of the storage box.

[0040] In one embodiment, the cover plate 301, side plate 303, and end plate 302 are separate structures, but are bonded together. Specifically, the cover plate 301, side plate 303, and end plate 302 can be plastic sheets, bonded together with adhesive. Alternatively, the cover plate 301, side plate 303, and end plate 302 can be an integral structure, specifically, the sliding cover 3 can be manufactured using injection molding.

[0041] In one embodiment, such as Figure 5 As shown, the storage box 1 includes a first support plate 101 and a U-shaped enclosure 102, the U-shaped enclosure 102 being disposed on the first support plate 101.

[0042] Specifically, the storage box forms a storage area around the first support plate 101 by means of a U-shaped enclosure 102. In this case, the sliding cover 3 will cooperate with the U-shaped enclosure 102 to form a storage space between the first support plate 101 and the sliding cover 3.

[0043] Furthermore, such as Figure 6 As shown, the storage box 1 includes a second support plate 103, the first support plate 101 and the second support plate 103 are arranged opposite to each other, and the U-shaped enclosure 102 is disposed between the first support plate 101 and the second support plate 103.

[0044] Specifically, the storage box 1 forms a storage space between the first support plate 101 and the second support plate 103 through the U-shaped enclosure 102.

[0045] The first support plate 101, the second support plate 103, and the U-shaped enclosure 102 are separate structures, but they are also bonded together. Specifically, the first support plate 101, the second support plate 103, and the U-shaped enclosure 102 can be plastic sheets bonded together with adhesive. Alternatively, the first support plate 101, the second support plate 103, and the U-shaped enclosure 102 can be an integral structure. Specifically, the storage box 1 can be manufactured using injection molding.

[0046] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and not to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features; and these modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
