Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of storage devices, and more specifically, to storage baskets.
Background Art
[0002] Storage baskets usually have a normal storage structure, especially those with a household storage structure are in high demand. However, in the scenario of household storage, storage is not maintained for a long time. In many cases, it is only necessary to store for a certain period of time. Therefore, how to arrange the storage baskets is an urgent problem that needs to be solved. Currently, in many cases, a plurality of storage baskets are arranged so as to overlap each other. Although such an arrangement has a relatively good space compression effect for a large number of storage baskets, there is a problem that the occupied space becomes relatively large for a small number of storage baskets. In addition, with the conventional structure of storage baskets, they cannot be folded and arranged.
[0003] As described above, how to effectively solve the problem that the storage baskets in the prior art cannot be folded or unfolded is an urgent problem that those skilled in the art need to solve currently.
Summary of the Invention
Problems to be Solved by the Invention
[0004] In view of this, an object of the present invention is to provide a storage basket that can effectively solve the problem that the storage baskets in the prior art cannot be folded or unfolded.
Means for Solving the Problems
[0005] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions.
[0006] A storage basket, comprising a bottom body and a plurality of side bodies, wherein the plurality of side bodies can be sequentially connected to form an annular basket wall structure, and between adjacent side bodies, it is possible to fold around a fold line extending along the direction of the basket opening. At least one of the side bodies is a foldable surface body that can be folded around a fold line extending along the direction of the basket opening. When in the folded state, the foldable surface body can be overlapped between adjacent side bodies on both sides and can be accommodated between adjacent side bodies on both sides. On the inner bottom edges of at least one pair of relatively provided side bodies, support hooks opening towards the basket opening are connected. The corresponding side portions of the bottom body are removably hooked downward on the support hooks so as to limit the folding of each adjacent side body around the fold line to form a basket bottom structure and can be supported by the support hooks.
[0007] In the above storage basket, the side bodies are foldably connected, and at least some of the side bodies are foldable surface bodies, and the inside of the foldable surface body is foldable. Thus, the side bodies can be sequentially overlapped, and thus, it can be folded into the smallest structure. On the other hand, the inner bottom body is lifted by the support hooks, and at the same time, the bottom body and the side bodies are laterally position-limited to prevent the folding between the side bodies and maintain the unfolded state. Thus, in the unfolded state, the structure becomes more stable. As described above, the storage basket can effectively solve the problem that the folding and unfolding effects of the storage basket in the prior art are poor.
[0008] Also, the support hook includes a horizontal portion and a vertical portion that form an L-shaped structure in combination. One end of the horizontal portion is connected to the bottom edge portion of the side body, and the other end is connected to the bottom end of the vertical portion. The tip of the vertical portion extends towards the basket opening, and there is a storage gap between the vertical portion and the corresponding side body for storing the corresponding side portion of the bottom body.
[0009] Further, the tip of the vertical portion has an arcuate chamfer formed thereon.
[0010] In some technical solutions, each of the side bodies has a part that is the folding body and another part that is the rigid body. The rigid body includes a first rectangular frame that sequentially extends along the edge and whose frame sides are sequentially integrally formed and connected. The horizontal portion is welded or integrally connected such that the support hook is disposed on the bottom frame side of the first rectangular frame. The folding body includes a plurality of folding units that can be sequentially folded. The folding unit includes a second rectangular frame that sequentially extends along the edge and whose frame sides are sequentially integrally formed and connected. The horizontal portion is welded or integrally connected such that the support hook is disposed on the bottom frame side of at least one of the folding units. The bottom body includes a third rectangular frame that sequentially extends along the edge and whose frame sides are sequentially integrally formed and connected. At least one pair of opposing frame sides of the third rectangular frame are both engaged with the corresponding support hooks on the side.
[0011] Also, a first lateral support rod is provided in the middle of the first rectangular frame, and a second lateral support rod is provided in the middle of the third rectangular frame. The first rectangular frame and the third rectangular frame are equal in size and shape.
[0012] Also, including four of the side bodies to form a rectangular cage wall structure, two of the four side bodies that are opposite to each other in one pair are both the folding bodies, and the other pair of two side bodies that are opposite to each other are both rigid bodies. The folding body includes two folding units that can be folded so as to overlap each other.
[0013] Also, at least one of the side body and the bottom body includes a frame and a braided structure that braids around the frame. The braided structure is filled in the center of the frame, and the vertical portion of the support hook passes through the clearance between adjacent braided strips of the braided structure.
[0014] It also includes one or more opening connection members for restraining two rod-shaped edges to achieve a rotational connection. The opening connection member has a storage chamber for storing and rotationally engaging one of the rod-shaped edges. The opening of the storage chamber is hooked on the other rod-shaped edge and welded between them. Between at least one set of adjacent side bodies, the rod-shaped edges of each other are restrained through the opening connection member so as to achieve a rotatable connection that can be rotated to a folded state, and / or between at least one set of adjacent folding units of the folding body, the rod-shaped edges of each other are restrained through the opening connection member so as to achieve a rotatable connection that can be rotated to a folded state.
[0015] The opening connection member further includes an enclosing plate with a circular arc cross-section forming an opening, and two arc-shaped plate portions arranged in parallel and protruding towards each other. One end of each of the two arc-shaped plate portions is connected to both sides of the opening of the enclosing plate. In the direction away from the enclosing plate, the distance between the other ends of the two arc-shaped plate portions gradually increases so as to form a flare for guiding.
[0016] The rod-shaped edge locked by the opening connection member is a cylindrical rod, and the diameter of the cylindrical rod is smaller than the diameter of the enclosing plate.

Embodiments for Carrying out the Invention
[0018] An embodiment of the present invention discloses a storage basket that effectively solves the problem that the storage basket in the prior art cannot be folded or unfolded.
[0019] Hereinafter, based on the entire drawings of the embodiments of the present invention, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described. The described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, assuming that those skilled in the art do not perform labor worthy of inventive step, all other embodiments obtained belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
[0020] Referring to FIGS. 1 to 5, FIG. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a storage basket according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of the storage basket during the process of taking out the bottom body according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 3 is a schematic structural diagram of the annular basket wall structure during the folding process according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 4 is a three-dimensional schematic structural diagram of the opening connection member according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 5 is a schematic structural diagram of one side of the opening connection member according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0021] Taking an example of some embodiments, the storage basket includes a bottom body 2 and a plurality of side bodies 1. The side bodies are plate bodies, sheet-like structures, etc., specifically, plastic plates, woven plates, mesh plates, etc. As a result, a plurality of side bodies are surrounded to form a groove-type structure, and such a groove-type structure forms a basket structure for storage, so it is called a storage basket. The above-mentioned basket structure is, for example, a square basket structure, a triangular basket structure, etc. Considering the folding effect, it is mainly a square basket structure. The plurality of side bodies of the basket structure are mainly divided into two parts. Some side bodies face the basket opening 3 (groove opening) and are called the bottom body 2, and the other part is erected as a wall portion on the bottom body 2 and is called the side body 1. The bottom body 2 is also called a bottom plate, a bottom frame, a bottom portion, etc., and the side body 1 is also called a side plate, a side frame, a side portion, etc.
[0022] The plurality of side bodies 1 can be sequentially connected to form an annular cage wall structure. As shown in the drawing, they are combined to form a rectangular annular structure. In this case, it is formed by combining four side bodies 1. Generally, in the unfolded state, the part that becomes one-sided alone is generally called the side body 1 as a whole. As shown in the drawing, in the case of a rectangular frame structure, it has four side bodies 1, while in the case of a triangular frame structure (not shown in the drawing), it has three side bodies 1.
[0023] Between adjacent side bodies 1, it is a foldable connection. For example, it is a pivot connection by a plurality of rotation axes, and it may be restrained by a flexible fabric belt so as to realize such a connection. Between adjacent side bodies 1, it can be folded around a fold line extending along the direction of the opening 3 of the cage. Considering the final folding direction, it is advisable to be able to restrain the relative rotation angle range between them. The fold line extending along the direction of the opening 3 of the cage may be provided inclined with respect to the opening 3 of the cage, or may be provided perpendicular to the opening 3 of the cage. Also, from another perspective, the above-mentioned fold line may be provided perpendicular to the bottom body 2.
[0024] For the convenience of explanation, here, two states will be described. One is the folded state, and the other is the unfolded state. The unfolded state is, for example, a state where it can be stored. In this case, it forms one cage structure. The folded state is that each side body is folded in a desired direction to reach a desired folded state. The relative movable range between adjacent side bodies 1 may or may not be restricted by the connection structure between them. For example, the movable range may be restricted to move relatively between the folded state and the unfolded state. For example, when one side body 1 rotates from the folded state to the unfolded state with respect to another side body 1, it may be blocked in the unfolded state and not allowed to move in that direction.
[0025] At least one of the side surfaces 1 is a foldable surface body 11 that can be folded around a folding line extending along the direction of the opening 3 of the basket. Specifically, the foldable surface body 11 includes a plurality of folding units 111, and between adjacent folding units 111, there is a foldable connection, and between adjacent folding units 111, it can be folded around a folding line extending along the direction of the opening 3 of the basket. Regarding the foldable connection method between the folding units 111, the foldable connection method between the side surfaces 1 can be referred to.
[0026] The foldable surface body 11 can be overlapped between adjacent side surfaces 1 on both sides in the folded state, and can be accommodated between adjacent side surfaces 1 on both sides. The foldable surface body 11 can be two - fold (having only one folding line, including two folding units 111, and can be folded into a V - shape), four - fold (having only three folding lines, including four folding units 111, and can be folded into a W - shape) or six - fold (having only five folding lines, including six folding units 111), etc. Specifically, the number of folding lines of the foldable surface body 11 is preferably an odd number. Thereby, in the folded state, the edges on both sides can be on the same side, and the folded foldable surface body 11 can be more reliably accommodated between adjacent side surfaces 1 on both sides.
[0027] In the triangular basket structure, only one of the side surfaces 1 can be the foldable surface body 11. Further, as shown in the drawing, in the rectangular frame structure, if only one set of two relatively provided side surfaces 1 are both the foldable surface body 11, they can be folded toward each other in the approaching direction.
[0028] On the inner bottom edges of at least one pair of oppositely provided side bodies 1, support hooks 4 opening towards the cage opening 3 are connected. The support hooks 4 open towards the cage opening 3 so that the bottom body 2 can be easily inserted from the cage opening 3 into the support hooks 4. For at least one pair of oppositely provided side bodies 1, as shown in the drawing, support hooks 4 are provided on both of the two pairs of opposing side bodies 1. In addition, as another embodiment, support hooks 4 may be provided only on one pair of opposing side bodies 1 and not on the other pair of opposing side bodies 1. The main function of the support hooks 4 is to lift the bottom body 2 and to limit the position of the bottom body 2 by means of the hook-like structure.
[0029] The corresponding side portions of the bottom body 2 are detachably hooked downward to the support hooks 4 and supported by the support hooks 4, thereby forming a bottom support body facing the direction of the basket opening 3. Further, the support hooks 4 are used to limit the folding of each adjacent side body 1 around the fold line so as to maintain the unfolded state, whereby the bottom body 2 forms a basket bottom structure. Specifically, the support hook 4 includes a lateral support portion (a lateral portion 41 as described later) and a vertical position limiting portion (a vertical portion 42 as described later). And the corresponding side portions of the bottom body 2 are hooked to the support hooks 4, and the corresponding side portions of the bottom body 2 are engaged with the support hooks 4 on the side body 1. That the bottom body 2 is detachably hooked downward to the support hooks 4 means that the bottom body 2 can be moved downward so as to be hooked to the support hooks 4, and can be taken out from the support hooks 4 and further moved upward so as to be taken out from the inner chamber of the entire annular basket wall structure. That is, in the state after the corresponding side portions of the bottom body 2 are engaged with the respective corresponding support hooks 4, the storage basket is maintained in the unfolded state, and the adjacent side bodies 1 cannot be folded around the fold line, and the adjacent folding units 111 of the corresponding folding body 11 cannot be folded around the fold line. In the state after the bottom body 2 is taken out, the adjacent side bodies 1 can be folded around the fold line, and the adjacent folding units 111 of the corresponding folding body 11 can be folded around the fold line. Thereby, the final folding structure is formed.
[0030] In the above storage basket, the spaces between the side bodies 1 are connected so as to be foldable, and at least a part of the side bodies 1 are folding surfaces 11, so that the side bodies 1 can be sequentially stacked on top of each other and folded into the smallest structure. On the other hand, the internal bottom body 2 is lifted by the support hooks 4, and at the same time, the bottom body 2 and the side bodies 1 are laterally position-limited to prevent the folding between the side bodies 1 and maintain the unfolded state. Therefore, in the unfolded state, the structure is more stable. As described above, the storage basket can effectively solve the problem that the storage basket in the prior art cannot be folded or unfolded.
[0031] As an example of the embodiment, in order to facilitate the arrangement of the support hooks 4, the support hooks 4 may be formed by combining a plurality of members to form a horizontal portion 41 and a vertical portion 42 that form an L-shaped structure. Also, as shown in the drawings, both the horizontal portion 41 and the vertical portion 42 may be rod-shaped or both may be sheet-shaped structures.
[0032] One end of the horizontal portion 41 of the L-shaped support hook 4 is connected to the bottom edge portion of the side body 1, and as shown in the drawings, it is connected to the lower frame side of the side body 1. The other end of the horizontal portion 41 is connected to the bottom end of the vertical portion 42, and the tip of the vertical portion 42 extends toward the basket opening 3. A gap is provided between the vertical portion 42 and the corresponding connected side body 1 to form a storage gap and is used to store the corresponding side portion of the bottom body 2. The width of this gap may be made equal to the width of the corresponding side portion of the bottom body 2, or the former may be slightly larger than the latter. Specifically, the vertical portion 42 may be provided parallel to the connected side body 1 or may protrude in the direction of the basket opening 3 with respect to the horizontal portion 41. The L-shaped support hook 4 may be an L-shaped rod.
[0033] Also, the L-shaped support hook 4 may form a chamfered structure at the tip of the vertical portion 42 so as to guide the bottom body 2 and at the same time avoid the formation of sharp edges. Specifically, an arc-shaped chamfered structure may be formed at the tip of the vertical portion 42.
[0034] As one of the embodiments, a part of each side surface body 1 may be a folding surface body 11, and the other part may be a rigid surface body 12. The rigid surface body 12 is for the folding surface body 11, cannot be folded, and similarly cannot be bent, and can maintain the current structural state with strong strength. Regarding the rigid surface body 12, as will be described later, the frame sides of each edge are sequentially fixedly connected, for example, sequentially integrally connected. An example of the rigid surface body 12 is, for example, an integrally formed steel plate structure, and another example is, for example, a steel mesh structure, and still another example is, for example, a plastic plate, and further, for example, a plastic perforated plate.
[0035] As shown in the drawings, the storage basket includes four side surface bodies 1. Among them, one pair of opposing side surface bodies 1 are both rigid surface bodies 12, and the other pair of opposing side surface bodies 1 are both folding surface bodies 11.
[0036] As one of the embodiments, the rigid surface body 12 has a first rectangular frame 13 that sequentially extends along the edge and whose frame sides are sequentially integrally formed and connected. The first rectangular frame 13 may be located at the edge portion of the rigid surface body 12 and extend. The rigid surface body 12 may have only the first rectangular frame 13. In this case, the edge structure of the rigid surface body 12 is the first rectangular frame 13. Also, while having the first rectangular frame 13, it may further have other structures. Support hooks 4 are arranged on the bottom side frame side of the first rectangular frame 13, and the horizontal portion 41 is welded or integrally connected. One or more support hooks 4 may be arranged along the extending direction of the bottom side frame side of the first rectangular frame 13. In addition, when there are a plurality of rigid surface bodies 12, the support hooks 4 may be arranged on one or more (part or all) of the rigid surface bodies 12.
[0037] The frame sides of the rectangular frame are integrally formed and connected sequentially, that is, the rectangular frame is made into one integral member. As an example, for instance, it is formed by bending a single metal rod sequentially three or four times to form a frame structure. In this case, the two ends of the rectangular frame may be arranged in an interleaved manner, connected together, or arranged with a gap. In this case, the two ends may be connected by welding or intertwined. Of course, the rectangular frame may be an end-to-end annular structure, for example, it may be a plastic ring. At least the above two types of rectangular frame forming methods are applied to one or more of the first rectangular frame 13, the second rectangular frame 14, and the third rectangular frame 22, and thus applied to all of them.
[0038] The foldable polyhedron 11 includes a plurality of foldable units 111 that can be folded sequentially. As shown in the structure of the drawing, it includes two foldable units 111. The foldable unit 111 includes a second rectangular frame 14 in which the frame sides are integrally formed and connected sequentially along the edge. The second rectangular frame 14 is located along the edge portion of the foldable unit 111. A support hook 4 is arranged on the bottom frame side of at least one foldable unit 111, and its horizontal portion 41 is welded or integrally connected. Note that each foldable unit 111 may also have a support hook 4.
[0039] The bottom surface body 2 includes a third rectangular frame 22 in which the frame sides extending sequentially along the edge are integrally formed and connected. The third rectangular frame 22 is located and extends along the edge of the bottom surface body 2. At least one pair of opposing frame sides of the third rectangular frame 22 are both engaged with the corresponding side support hooks 4, for example, each support hook 4.
[0040] As one of the embodiments, considering that the span of the rigid surface body 12 may be relatively large, in order to better improve the overall strength, a first lateral support rod 15 may be provided in the middle of the first rectangular frame 13, and a second lateral support rod 21 may be provided in the middle of the third rectangular frame 22. In actual application, the first rectangular frame 13 and the third rectangular frame 22 may be made to have the same size and shape. Specifically, as shown in the drawing, the first rectangular frame 13 and the second rectangular frame 14 may have the same length and width.
[0041] As one of the embodiments, in order to improve the convenience of installation, the storage basket includes four side surface bodies 1 so as to form a rectangular basket wall structure, and the bottom surface body 2 correspondingly forms a rectangular structure. As shown in the drawing, two of the four side surface bodies 1 that are opposite to each other may both be folding surface bodies 11, and the other two side surface bodies 1 that are opposite to each other may both be rigid surface bodies 12. The two folding surface bodies 11 provided opposite to each other may be arranged side by side after being folded so as to be accommodated between the two rigid surface bodies 12. Specifically, the total width after folding of the two folding surface bodies 11 provided opposite to each other should be less than or equal to the width of the rigid surface body 12.
[0042] When it is necessary to change the storage basket from the opened state to the folded state, before folding, as shown in FIG. 1, in the state of being in a basket-shaped structure, as shown in FIG. 2, the bottom surface body 2 is taken out upward and detached from the basket opening 3. Then, the positions of the fold lines of the folding surface bodies 11 on both sides are made to move towards the center of each other, and the rigid surface bodies 12 on both sides are made to approach each other. Thereby, the folding surface body 11 becomes the shape shown in FIG. 3 during the folding process after starting the folding.
[0043] As one of the embodiments, as shown in the drawings, the folding polyhedron 11 may include two folding units 111 that can be folded so as to overlap each other. In this case, at the coordinates shown in FIG. 2, the widths of each folding unit 111 in the first lateral direction Y of the rectangular cage wall structure are equal, and the width of the folding unit 111 in the first lateral direction Y is less than or equal to the width of the rigid polyhedron 12 in the second lateral direction X. Both the first lateral direction Y and the second lateral direction X are directions in the unfolded state and mean the extending directions of the two side polyhedrons 1.
[0044] As one of the embodiments, at least one of the side polyhedron 1 and the bottom polyhedron 2 may include a frame and a braided structure that braids around the frame, or both may include a braided structure. The braided structure can be filled in the center of the frame and braided vertically and horizontally with braided strips. When braiding in this way, it should be wound so as to be better fixed by the frame side. The braided yarn may be bamboo slats, rattan, hemp ropes, etc.
[0045] The vertical portion 42 of the support hook 4 can realize better fixation of the braided structure by clamping the vertical portion 42 through the clearance between adjacent braided strips of the braided structure via the braided strips.
[0046] As one of the embodiments, an opening connection member 5 may be provided to connect the side polyhedron 1 so that it can be easily folded and to connect the folding unit 111 so that it can be easily folded.
[0047] Specifically, one or more opening connection members 5 for restraining and rotatably connecting two rod-shaped edges 6 may be provided. The opening connection member 5 has a storage chamber for storing and rotatably engaging one of the rod-shaped edges 6, and the opening of the storage chamber may be hooked on the other rod-shaped edge 6 and welded therebetween. The opening connection member 5 generally forms a C shape as a whole so as to surround and form a storage chamber, but an opening is formed on one side of the storage chamber, and the opening is used for introducing the rod-shaped edge 6 stored in the storage chamber.
[0048] To illustrate with an example, when there are two rod-shaped edges 6 that need to be constrained, generally, the two rod-shaped edges are provided in parallel. The storage chambers are used to store the respective rod-shaped edges, and there is a rotational engagement between the storage chambers and the rod-shaped edges. The rotation axis is generally the center line of the rod-shaped edge on the back side, and it is a clearance fit between a cylinder and a circular hole as shown in FIG. 5. Of course, it may also be an engagement between a cylinder and a hole of another shape, or an engagement between a main body of another shape and a circular hole. For other shapes, for example, they may be square, triangular, or irregular shapes.
[0049] The openings of the opening connection member 5, that is, the edge portions on both sides of the opening of the storage chamber, are welded to the corresponding sides of the rod-shaped edge on the opening side so as to be in contact with both sides of the respective rod-shaped edges and be hooked on the rod-shaped edge on the opening side.
[0050] Between at least one set of adjacent side bodies 1, the rod-shaped edges 6 of each other are constrained via the opening connection member 5 so as to realize a rotatable connection until they are in a folded state. Between at least one set of adjacent folding units 111 of the folding body 11, the rod-shaped edges 6 of each other are constrained via the opening connection member 5 so as to realize a rotatable connection until they are in a folded state. The rod-shaped edge 6 is configured to form the above-mentioned frame side. The opening connection member 5 may be arranged in two or more in parallel between adjacent side bodies 1 along the direction in which the cage opening 3 faces. Similarly, two or more opening connection members 5 may be arranged in parallel between adjacent folding units 111. Also, in order to avoid displacement and ensure the order of rotation, one rod-shaped edge 6 and each opening connection member 5 are connected in the same way, either all by rotational engagement or all by welding. For example, the respective rod-shaped edges are constrained via a plurality of opening connection members 5, and each opening connection member 5 realizes a rotational engagement with the rod-shaped edge on the back side and is welded to the rod-shaped edge on the opening side.
[0051] As one of the embodiments, the opening connection member 5 generally adopts a clamping structure, for example, a double clip. Specifically, as shown in the drawing, the opening connection member 5 includes a surrounding plate 51 whose cross-section forms an arc shape to form an opening, and two arc-shaped plate portions 52 arranged side by side and protruding towards each other. One end of each of the two arc-shaped plate portions 52 is respectively connected to both sides of the opening of the surrounding plate 51, and the opening is formed between the two arc-shaped plate portions 52 and is used for being welded to the corresponding rod-shaped edge. In the direction away from the surrounding plate 51, the distance between the other ends of the two arc-shaped plate portions 52 gradually increases so as to form a flare for guiding, so that the rod-shaped edge 6 can be easily guided into the storage groove. For example, as the material of the opening connection member 5, a metal strip plate may be adopted and bent sequentially to form one arc-shaped plate portion 52, the surrounding plate 51, and another arc-shaped plate portion 52 in sequence.
[0052] As one of the embodiments, the rod-shaped edge 6 with which the opening connection member 5 engages may be a cylindrical rod, and the diameter A of the cylindrical rod is smaller than the diameter B of the surrounding plate 51, and it may be arranged to engage with the corresponding rod-shaped edge 6 in a rotational manner.
