Abstract

Armed box perfected of which are formed by the mechanical unión of several bodies or faces which have been previously machined to allow their fitting and subsequent strengthening of said body or faces by means of immobilization elements such as screws bolts or similar for the assembly of said box characterized in that the box (10) comprises a base (13) to whose perimeter (20) the faces (11-12) are joined together by contact, by the aid of two magnets (15-16) incorporated in the vicinity of the edges (19-20) of said faces (11-12).

Description

Perfectly crafted box.

Object of the invention

More specifically, the invention relates to a  easily assembled and removable multi-purpose box, for example, as a cage to house animals preferably in laboratories, which can be assembled by simply contacting your different faces, for which they incorporate two magnets

Background of the invention

There is no known armored box of characteristics of the invention, usable as a cage, although there are different types of boxes with the same purpose, without however, they do not present the characteristics of the invention or provide the advantages that its design incorporates.

In Invention Patent No. 9100468, describes and claims a "Multipurpose experimental cage" the which although also has the characteristic of being armable It requires a large number of pieces and at the same time it is expensive to manufacture and assemble

Similarly in Utility Model No. 9501636  shows a "removable and stackable modular cage, applicable for the transport of animals ", which demands an expensive machining of the different elements in which it is built and whose assembly in turn consumes a high time.

Description of the invention

The recommended box is formed by a set of preferably prismatic bodies with flat surfaces and low thickness, which incorporate one or more magnets, so that its assembly is produced by simple contact of the edges of the bodies, which do not require any type of machining.

The magnets are embedded in the body of each of the pieces and preferably in the immediate vicinity of the edges of the faces, alternatively the magnets too recessed can be placed in the lateral bases bodies

Additionally and as a consequence of said  bodies are completely flat, allows storage when not they are used, which allows in a small space the storage of several boxes, when they should not be used.

The possibility of the box object of the invention of arming and disarming with a simple pressure, by staying united by simple contact between the different parts of it, enables the cage to be disassembled in its different parts to be easily cleanable, this work facilitates when it is used for laboratory animals, in which the maintaining the box is optimal health conditions.

The conception of the box in terms of its methodology in relation to its assembly, does not limit that the box should adopt some preset measures, but may be constructed of all measurements and thereby adapt to the size of the animals that must be housed in them or as a terrarium or flower pot

In one embodiment of the invention but not the unique, the magnetic force of the magnets can be used to keep several boxes together remaining in this arrangement without need for immobilization brackets between them, this facilitates its stacking both horizontally and vertically.

Additionally storage in the premises Manufacturer's distributor and specialty stores occupies a less space, or with the same space it is possible to store more boxes, the same advantage and for the same circumstance is observed in the transfer of the box.

Description of the figures

Figure 1 is a perspective view exploded from the box (10) in which the different ones are shown parts of it.

Figure 2 is a front elevation view of the body of the face (12) in which on one of the surfaces (17) the magnets (15) embedded therein are aligned.

Figure 3 is a front elevation view side of the body of the face (12) on which one of the surfaces (18) the magnets are inserted from its lower lateral base (16).

Figure 4 is a perspective of the box (10) with all their faces in contact.

Description of one of the embodiments of the invention

In one of the preferred embodiments of what The object of the present invention is the assembled box (10) such and as can be seen in figure 1, it is formed by a base (13) noticeably prismatic configuration flat, although they are other configurations possible, with faces (11-12) also prismatic parallel to each other, which are arranged in the perimeter of said base (13) by its lower edges joining as a result of having incorporated into the body of said faces magnets (15-16).

The magnets generate enough force to keep the faces in close contact (11-12) by its lower edges (19-20) on the perimeter (21) of the base (13).

The arrangement of said magnets (15-16) is what can be seen in figures 2 and 3, in which it is appreciated that the magnets (15) are embedded by any known means on the major surface or base (15) of the body of the face (12), while in another similar arrangement the magnets (16) are arranged in the minor lateral base (18), in both provisions the same efficiency is achieved as regards the union of planes of the different faces that form the box (10).

The number of magnets will depend on the weight of the body of the faces and this of their dimensions, therefore the invention is applicable to any type of configuration and dimension.

Additionally another of the purposes of the invention it is the ease of cleaning the boxes (10) since the body of the faces (11-12) to be able to separate from the base (13), facilitates such cleaning and subsequent assembly, without the laboratory operator have to hold the entire box as occurs with boxes or cages that we can distinguish as conventional and part of the technique.

Additionally another of the purposes of the invention It is the ease of storage of the boxes, when they they are not operable, since the bases (13) may be stacked, or the faces (11-12) in a minimum volume, until your use is necessary again in which they return to assemble without need of any kind of tool.

Additionally another of the purposes of the invention is the possibility of placing an alignment of boxes, joining them thanks to the strength of the magnets themselves so that for example a box (10) will be joined laterally when a face (11-12) with the face (11-12) of The adjacent box.

Suitably described the present invention in correspondence with the attached figures, it is easy to understand that may be introduced therein, any modifications of detail deemed convenient, as long as it is not altered the essence of the invention that is summarized in the following claims.
