[0030] The technical means adopted by the present application to achieve the predetermined object of the application are further described below in conjunction with the drawings and the preferred embodiments of the present application.

[0031] An embodiment of the present application provides a rotating wrench storage device which can be used to store wrenches of different sizes. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the rotating wrench storage device comprises at least two storage plates 10 and a positioning shaft 20. The shape of the at least two storage plates 10 can be designed according to requirements, such as a common rectangle, square, triangle or hexagon with a specific geometric shape, or a design with a biological, plant or cartoon shape according to the requirements of the designer. As long as the shape is convenient for a user to extract and place a wrench, the length, width and height of the at least two storage plates 10 are not limited in the present application as long as the wrenches are of a suitable size for use. The at least two storage plates 10 are arranged in an upper-lower or left-right stacked manner, each storage plate 10 is provided with a positioning shaft hole 101 through which the positioning shaft 20 passes, and each storage plate 10 is provided with at least one tool placing hole 102 on the side surface for inserting and placing a wrench. The tool placing hole can be of any geometric shape, such as a circle, an ellipse, a semicircle, an arc, a rectangle, etc. Alternatively, the tool placing hole can be of a shape set according to different requirements, such as a biological, plant, cartoon character, cartoon shape or other contour, which is not limited in the present application. The positioning shaft 20 sequentially passes through the positioning shaft holes 101 of the storage plates 10 and is fixed to the storage plates 10, so that the storage plates 10 can rotate relative to the positioning shaft 20, thereby facilitating the quick extraction of a required wrench.

[0032] As shown in FIG. 2, the positioning shaft 20 is a nail-shaped body with uniform thickness, one end of which is provided with a nail cap 201, and the other end is provided with a thread 202. After the positioning shaft 20 passes through the positioning shaft hole 101 of each storage plate 10 in turn, it can be fixed on the outermost storage plate 10. There are various fixing methods, and in a preferred embodiment, a nut 107 (or a thread) is arranged inside the outermost storage plate 10, and the thread 202 of the positioning shaft 20 can be directly screwed onto the outermost storage plate 10. After selecting an appropriate length of the positioning shaft 20, one side of the thread 202 can be hidden inside the outermost storage plate 10. At the same time, the positioning shaft hole 101 of the innermost storage plate 10 is arranged in a concave structure (see FIG. 1), and at this point, the nail cap 201 of the positioning shaft 20 can be hidden in the inner storage plate 10. Through the above arrangement, both ends of the positioning shaft 20 can be hidden in the storage plate 10. At this point, both sides of the storage plate are in a flat state, and patterns or colors can be applied to the outside of the storage plate 10 to improve the appearance of the outside of the storage plate 10.

[0033] Of course, without considering aesthetics, other ways of fixing the positioning shaft 20 can also be selected, such as using external nuts to stack the storage plates 10 together by the positioning shaft 20 at both ends. Or other clamping methods to clamp the positioning shaft 20 between the two side storage plates 10, etc. It should be noted that the fixing method of the positioning shaft 20 in the preferred embodiment of the present application is only used for explanation and description, and is not used to limit the present application.

[0034] As shown in the embodiments of FIGS. 1 and 2, each storage plate 10 adopts a cuboid plate structure, and the positions of each corner are all smooth rounded corners, which improves the aesthetics and safety. The front and rear sides of the storage plate 10 are provided with a through positioning shaft hole 101, and the positioning shaft hole 101 in the figure is arranged at the middle of the plate body near one side, which is beneficial to fixing the positioning shaft 20 and avoiding the position of the tool placing hole 102 on the side for storing the wrench. Among them, each storage plate 10 preferably adopts different lengths. As shown, when stacked, the storage plates 10 are arranged in order according to their length, so that the storage plates 10 present a stepped shape. Due to the different lengths, when selecting a wrench, the corresponding storage plate 10 can be quickly selected and rotated, and then the corresponding wrench in the storage plate 10 can be quickly taken out. Of course, the same length of the storage plate 10 can also be used, but the convenience of selection will be slightly worse. Further, the width of each storage plate 10 can be different or the same. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, each storage plate 10 preferably adopts the same width, so that when not rotating, the two sides present a flat state, which is convenient for users to hold the two sides of the storage plate. FIGS. 10 and 11 show different embodiments, in which the embodiment of FIG. 10 adopts a circular structure. In addition to the circular structure of FIG. 10, the embodiment of FIG. 11 also shows a heart-shaped storage plate and an elliptical storage plate.

[0035] As shown in FIGS. 1-9C, in the present embodiment, each tool placement hole 102 provided on the side of each storage plate 10 is circular or elliptical or other arcuate, or other polygonal such as triangular or more, or other polygonal such as three-sided or more. Since the radial direction of a wrench is hexagonal, circular or other shape, the wrench can be held by the size of the circular tool placement hole 102 or by a plurality of concave structures or a plurality of convex hole structures provided in the hole to avoid the wrench from slipping out. The size of each tool placement hole 102 of each storage plate 10 is not the same, so as to accommodate different models of wrenches, which sequentially increase or decrease according to the stacking order of the storage plates 10. For example, as shown in FIG. 9A, each storage plate 10 is provided with one tool placement hole 102. After the storage plates 10 are stacked, the tool placement holes 102 are arranged in a row and sequentially arranged from large to small, and the positioning shaft 20 can be seen on the right side of the tool placement hole 102. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 9B, except for the outermost storage plate 10 provided with one tool placement hole 102, the other storage plates 10 are provided with two tool placement holes 102. After the positioning shaft 20 fixes each storage plate 10, the tool placement holes 102 of each storage plate 10 are arranged in two rows, and the size of the tool placement holes 102 in each row increases with the increase of the length of the storage plate 10. In FIGS. 4 and 8, the models of each wrench are marked on both sides of the storage plate 10. As shown in FIG. 4, the models of the wrenches in one row are sequentially 10, 3, 2.5, 2, and 1.5; and as shown in FIG. 8, the models of the wrenches in another row are 10, 8, 6, 5, and 4. The models of the wrenches in both rows increase with the increase of the length of the storage plate. As shown in FIG. 9C, each storage plate 10 is provided with three tool placement holes 102, and the sizes of the three tool placement holes 102 can be the same or different. The tool placement holes 102 are arranged in three rows, and the size of each row of tool placement holes 102 sequentially decreases.

[0036] As shown in Fig. 2, a limiting mechanism is arranged between adjacent storage plates to limit the relative rotation angle of the two adjacent storage plates. Here, the storage plates are defined as the first storage plate, the second storage plate, the third storage plate, the fourth storage plate and the fifth storage plate from left to right, and each storage plate comprises an A face and a B face, the A face is the face facing the front side, and the B face is the face facing the back side. Here, the A face of the first storage plate is the display face of the product (not shown in the figure), and the B face is in contact with the A face of the second storage plate. The B face of the second storage plate is in contact with the A face of the third storage plate, and so on, and the B face of the fifth storage plate is the outermost face. Among them, the A face of the second storage plate is provided with an arc-shaped groove 103 which is consistent with the rotation direction of the storage plate. The B face of the first storage plate is provided with a protrusion 104 which is a small arc-shaped structure and can slide in the groove 103 of the A face of the second storage plate. In this way, the rotation angle between the two storage plates can be limited by the length of the groove 103. As shown in Fig. 5, the size of one column of wrenches in the storage plate 10 is slightly larger, and the size of the other column of wrenches is slightly smaller. In use, the storage plate 10 is rotated, as shown in Fig. 5, a rotation angle is generated between the fourth storage plate and the fifth storage plate, and the wrenches can be taken out from the fourth storage plate without the need to take out other wrenches. As shown in Fig. 6, a rotation angle is generated between the adjacent storage plates 10, so that wrenches of all sizes can be quickly taken out, effectively improving work efficiency. Preferably, as shown in Fig. 5, the rotation angle α is set to 0-30 degrees. A small angle rotation can ensure that the wrenches can be taken out, of course, the rotation angle can also be increased / decreased in the clockwise direction or in the counterclockwise direction according to the needs, and the specific angle is not limited to 0-30 degrees here, 0-30 degrees is only a preferred example, and the angle can be designed according to the user's convenience for extraction as a priority. Of course, the positions of the groove 103 and the protrusion 104 can be interchanged, for example, the B face of the first storage plate is provided with the groove 103, and the A face of the second storage plate is provided with the protrusion 104.

[0037] As shown in Fig. 2 and Fig. 7, a damping structure is further arranged between the adjacent storage plates 10 to prevent the storage plates 10 from sliding randomly. Specifically, one of the adjacent storage plates 10 is provided with the damping structure, and the corresponding contact position of the other storage plate 10 is not specially treated, i.e. it remains flat. As shown in Fig. 2, three different positions of the damping protrusion 105 on the A face of the second storage plate 10 are shown. The three positions are: one is to arrange a ring-shaped damping protrusion 105 around the positioning shaft hole 101, and the other two are to arrange a circular-arc-shaped protrusion. The three positions of the damping protrusion 105 can be arranged at the same time, or one or two of them can be selected for arrangement. The B face of the first storage plate is a flat structure. Of course, the damping protrusion 105 can also be arranged on the A face of the second storage plate 10, and the corresponding position of the B face of the first storage plate 10 is a flat structure.

[0038] Referring to Fig. 7, a resilient structure is provided between adjacent storage plates 10, which generates an interaction force between the two storage plates 10, and a gap is generated between the storage plates 10 by the interaction force. As shown in Fig. 8, the positioning shaft hole 101 of one of the two adjacent storage plates 10 is provided with a circular recess structure, and the other storage plate 10 is not processed. The recess structure is used to accommodate the resilient spring 106. When the positioning shaft 20 passes through the positioning shaft hole 101, it also passes through the spring 106 located in the recess structure of the positioning shaft hole 101. The top surface of the spring 106 is in contact with the other storage plate 10 by the elastic force after the positioning shaft 20 is fixed. The interaction force between the two storage plates 10 facilitates the rotation of the storage plates 10 by external force.

[0039] In addition, in optional embodiments, the side storage plates 10 are also provided with hanging holes 108 for facilitating hanging. The wrench storage device can be hung in a non-use state, which is convenient for storage.

[0040] As shown in Figs. 9D to 9F, the number of storage plates 10 can be adjusted according to actual needs. In Fig. 1, there are five storage plates 10. In Figs. 9D to 9F, the number of storage plates 10 can be increased to seven. Correspondingly, the length of the positioning shaft 20 is also increased to connect all the storage plates 10.

[0041] The material used for the storage plates 10 is any material that can be shaped, and plastic or plastic composite, rubber or rubber composite is particularly preferred. Preferably, as in the above embodiments, different colors of materials or printing can be used for the storage plates 10 to facilitate the identification of the inserted wrench.

[0042] Based on the above, the rotating wrench storage device provided by the present application can be directly and quickly taken out by rotating the storage plates, and does not need to adjust other wrenches as in the conventional wrench collection frame shown in Fig. 10, which improves the user experience.

[0043] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present application, and does not limit the present application in any form. Although the present application has been disclosed as above, it is not intended to limit the present application. Any skilled person in the art can make some changes or modifications to the above disclosed technical content without departing from the scope of the technical solution of the present application, and any simple modification, equivalent change and modification of the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present application are still within the scope of the technical solution of the present application.
