Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of locker technology, and in particular to an office locker. Background Technology

[0002] Office lockers are storage devices widely used in homes, offices, student dormitories, and hotels, primarily for storing documents, tools, and personal belongings to meet people's needs for space organization and item management. Currently, most office lockers on the market are fixed structures. While adding casters improves ease of transport, they occupy significant space when not in use or during storage, require disassembly for effective storage, and are cumbersome to reassemble. There is an urgent need for folding designs to optimize space utilization and ease of use.

[0003] Most office lockers on the market are fixed structures. During transportation, they usually require multiple people to lift or add casters for transfer. While this improves mobility to some extent, their overall structure cannot be folded, resulting in them occupying a lot of space when not in use or during storage, and making them difficult to store effectively. If it is necessary to reduce the footprint, they often have to be disassembled, which not only increases the complexity of operation but also makes the reinstallation process cumbersome and inefficient. Utility Model Content

[0004] One objective of this utility model is to provide an office storage cabinet. This utility model addresses the issue mentioned above, where most office storage cabinets on the market are fixed structures. During transportation, multiple people are usually needed to lift and place them, or casters are added for transfer. Although this improves the convenience of movement to some extent, the overall structure cannot be folded, resulting in a large amount of space being occupied during idle or storage periods, and it is difficult to store items effectively. If it is necessary to reduce the footprint, it is often necessary to disassemble and disassemble the cabinet, which not only increases the complexity of operation but also makes the reinstallation process cumbersome and inefficient.

[0005] An office storage cabinet according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes:

[0006] The folding mechanism includes a front frame and a rear frame, and a support plate located between the front frame and the rear frame. Several support plates are provided. A front side plate is symmetrically rotated on one side inside the front frame, and a rear side plate is symmetrically rotated on one side inside the rear frame. A top cover is fitted onto the top of the front frame, rear frame, front side plate, and rear side plate. A cabinet door is symmetrically rotated on the front end of the front frame via a hinge. Second positioning holes and first positioning holes are respectively provided on the inner sides of the front and rear frames. Several first and second positioning holes are provided from top to bottom. The support plate is rotatably mounted to the rear frame via the first positioning hole. The support plate is adapted to the second positioning hole in the front frame via a positioning mechanism.

[0007] Preferably, the front side plate and the rear side plate are rotatably connected.

[0008] Preferably, the front frame, rear frame, front side panel, rear side panel, top cover, and load-bearing plate are all made of bamboo fiber and recycled PP plastic composite to form the cabinet body.

[0009] Preferably, the surfaces of the front frame, rear frame, front side panel, rear side panel and top cover are all molded and have wood-look textured surfaces.

[0010] Preferably, a liner is embedded in the hinge area inside the front frame. The liner is made of 304 stainless steel, and the hinge and the liner are fixedly installed together.

[0011] Preferably, the top of the front frame and the rear frame are symmetrically provided with mating grooves, and the bottom of the front frame and the rear frame are symmetrically fixed with mating posts.

[0012] Preferably, the front end of the cabinet door is provided with an observation window and a door lock.

[0013] Preferably, the positioning mechanism includes a movable rod located at the front end inside the support plate. Two movable rods are alternately arranged on the left and right sides. A positioning post is fixedly provided at one end of the movable rod corresponding to the second positioning hole. The positioning post passes through the interior of the support plate. A limit plate is fixedly provided on the outside of the positioning post. A spring is installed between the limit plate and the support plate. The spring is located on the outside of the positioning post. The positioning post is adapted to the second positioning hole and is engaged. A lever is fixedly provided at the other end of the bottom of the movable rod.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] 1. This utility model, through its folding mechanism, effectively avoids the problems of traditional fixed storage cabinets occupying too much space when idle or in storage, and requiring cumbersome disassembly and assembly for storage. When the cabinet needs to be folded, simply press the two levers on the left and right sides inward simultaneously. The levers drive the movable rod to move inward against the spring force. The movement of the movable rod will pull the positioning column fixed to it to completely exit from the second positioning hole, releasing the lock between the front end of the support plate and the front frame. Since the rear end of the support plate is rotatably connected to the rear frame through the first positioning hole, the front end of the support plate can be easily lifted upward, allowing it to rotate around the connection point on the rear frame towards the rear frame to fold up. Then, remove the top cover, and fold the front and rear side panels inward respectively, and finally close the front and rear frames together in the middle. When it needs to be unfolded again, simply operate in the reverse order, and the cabinet will return to a stable state, thus achieving quick folding and unfolding, greatly improving space utilization efficiency and ease of use.

[0016] 2. With the addition of docking slots and docking posts, when storage stacking or multiple cabinets are required, simply align the docking post at the bottom of one cabinet with the docking slot at the top of the cabinet below. The shape matching between the docking post and the docking slot achieves precise positioning and fitting, ensuring that the storage cabinets do not slide or shift laterally when folded. This enhances stability and safety while further optimizing space management. Attached Figure Description

[0024] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, illustrating only the basic structure of the present invention, and therefore only show the components relevant to the present invention.

[0025] refer to Figures 1-5 An office locker, comprising:

[0026] Folding mechanism 1 includes a front frame 101 and a rear frame 102, and a support plate 112 located between the front frame 101 and the rear frame 102. The support plate 112 is provided with several of these plates. A front side plate 104 is symmetrically rotated on one side inside the front frame 101, and a rear side plate 103 is symmetrically rotated on one side inside the rear frame 102. A top cover 113 is snapped onto the top of the front frame 101, the rear frame 102, the front side plate 104, and the rear side plate 103. A cabinet door 107 is symmetrically rotated on the front front end of the front frame 101 via a hinge 108. A second positioning hole 114 and a first positioning hole 111 are respectively opened on the inner sides of the front frame 101 and the rear frame 102. Several first positioning holes 111 and second positioning holes 114 are provided from top to bottom. The support plate 112 is rotated with the rear frame 102 through the first positioning hole 111. The support plate 112 is adapted to the second positioning hole 114 in the front frame 101 through a positioning mechanism 2.

[0027] When the cabinet needs to be folded and stored, simply press the two levers 205 inwards simultaneously. The levers 205 drive the movable rod 201 to move inwards against the elastic force of the spring 204. The movement of the movable rod 201 will pull the positioning post 202 fixed to it to completely exit from the second positioning hole 114, releasing the lock between the front end of the support plate 112 and the front frame 101. Since the rear end of the support plate 112 is rotatably connected to the rear frame 102 through the first positioning hole 111, the front end of the support plate 112 can be easily lifted upwards, allowing it to rotate around the connection point on the rear frame 102 and fold up towards the rear frame 102. Then, remove the top cover 113, and fold the front side panel 104 and the rear side panel 103 inwards respectively, and finally close the front frame 101 and the rear frame 102 together in the middle. When it needs to be unfolded again, simply operate in the reverse order, and the cabinet will return to a stable state, thus achieving quick folding and unfolding, greatly improving space utilization efficiency and ease of use.

[0028] The positioning mechanism 2 includes a movable rod 201 located at the front end of the inner side of the support plate 112. Two movable rods 201 are alternately arranged on the left and right sides. A positioning post 202 is fixedly provided at one end of the movable rod 201 corresponding to the second positioning hole 114. The positioning post 202 passes through the interior of the support plate 112. A limit plate 203 is fixedly provided on the outside of the positioning post 202. A spring 204 is installed between the limit plate 203 and the support plate 112. The spring 204 is located on the outside of the positioning post 202. The positioning post 202 is adapted to the second positioning hole 114 and is engaged. A paddle 205 is fixedly provided at the other end of the bottom of the movable rod 201.

[0029] When storage stacking or multiple cabinets are needed, simply align the docking post 106 at the bottom of one cabinet with the docking slot 105 at the top of the cabinet below. The shape matching between the docking post 106 and the docking slot 105 achieves precise positioning and fitting, ensuring that the storage cabinets do not slide or shift laterally when folded, thereby enhancing stability and safety while further optimizing space management.

[0030] Example 1: The front side panel 104 and the rear side panel 103 are rotatable. The front frame 101, rear frame 102, front side panel 104, rear side panel 103, top cover 113 and support plate 112 are all made of bamboo fiber and recycled PP plastic composite to form the cabinet body, which is environmentally friendly, lightweight and high-strength. The surfaces of the front frame 101, rear frame 102, front side panel 104, rear side panel 103 and top cover 113 are all molded and pressed with wood grain to enhance the appearance and durability. The hinge 108 area inside the front frame 101 has a pre-embedded liner 115. The liner 115 is made of 304 stainless steel. The hinge 108 and the liner 115 are fixedly installed to ensure that the opening and closing process of the cabinet door 107 is stable and reliable, avoiding structural loosening or deformation due to long-term use, thereby extending the overall service life of the storage cabinet.

[0031] Example 2: The top of the front frame 101 and the rear frame 102 are symmetrically provided with docking grooves 105, and the bottom of the front frame 101 and the rear frame 102 are symmetrically fixed with docking posts 106, which facilitates the stacking of multiple storage cabinets. The docking posts 106 are embedded in the docking grooves 105 to achieve precise positioning and stable connection, preventing displacement or tipping during stacking. The front end of the cabinet door 107 is provided with an observation window 109 and a door lock 110, which allows users to check the status of the items inside without opening the cabinet door. The door lock 110 also enhances the security of the stored items.

[0032] Working principle: When storage is required, the operator first removes the top cover 113 that is snapped onto the top. Then, simultaneously presses inward the two left and right levers 205 located below the front end of the support plate 112. The movement of the levers 205 causes the movable rod 201 fixed thereto to move inward against the elastic force of the spring 204. The movement of the movable rod 201 directly pulls the positioning post 202 fixed at its other end to completely retract from the second positioning hole 114 on the side of the front frame 101, thereby releasing the locking state between the front end of the support plate 112 and the front frame 101. The rear end of the support plate 12 is always rotatably connected to the rear frame 102 through the first positioning hole 111. At this time, the operator can easily lift the front end of the support plate 112 upwards, so that it rotates around the connection point on the rear frame 102 and folds up towards the rear frame 102, presenting a vertical or nearly vertical state. Then, the operator can rotate and fold the front side plate 104 symmetrically arranged on both sides inside the front frame 101 and the rear side plate 103 on both sides inside the rear frame 102 inwards respectively. Finally, the front frame 101 and the rear frame 102 are brought together in the middle. At this point, the cabinet is folded, and the volume is greatly reduced. When needed, the operator unfolds the closed front frame 101 and rear frame 102 outwards to the required width. Then, the folded front side panel 104 and rear side panel 103 are lowered and unfolded, restoring them to their original position as cabinet side walls. Next, the previously folded support plate 112 is laid flat with its front end facing downwards, close to the inside of the front frame 101. Under the action of the spring 204, the positioning post 202 precisely engages with the second positioning hole 114 at the corresponding height on the side of the front frame 101, thereby firmly locking the front end of the support plate 112 onto the front frame 101, forming a stable horizontal partition. Finally, the top cover 113 is re-clamped onto the top of the front frame 101, rear frame 102, front side panel 104, and rear side panel 103 to complete the stable assembly of the cabinet. When the office storage cabinets need to be stacked, the docking posts 106 that are symmetrically fixed at the bottom of one cabinet are aligned with the docking slots 105 that are symmetrically opened at the top of the other cabinet below to achieve precise positioning and fitting. This ensures that the overall structure after stacking is stable and neat, preventing sliding, displacement, or tipping during handling or storage, and greatly improving space utilization efficiency and transportation safety.
