Description

This utility model relates to a foldable storage box dedicated to assembling and storing Lego blocks.

The Lego block is a plastic building block invented by Ole Kirk Christiansen of Denmark, which has a protrusion on one side and a groove into which the protrusion can be fitted on the other side. There are more than 1300 types of shapes, and each shape has 12 types of colors, mainly red, yellow, blue, white, and black. It is said to be a "magic plastic block" that allows children to use their own heads and hands to assemble and create illusionary shapes, which makes people crazy. Lego blocks are educationally significant toys that can bring out the thinking and creativity of children very well, and are deeply loved by both children and adults. Many children have multiple sets of Lego blocks.

When a child assembles a block on a smooth flat surface, there are problems such as the structure being assembled with slight carelessness, the height of the molding is limited, and the blocks are easily scattered. Also, storing Lego blocks is a problem, and if you can't store them properly, many blocks will clutter your house and you won't be able to find the blocks and parts you need the next time you assemble.

The purpose of this utility model is to provide a folding storage box dedicated to Lego blocks. The box has two types of states, folding and non-folding. When it is in the non-folding state, it has a storage function, can be used as a mini table for children's play, and is used as a base plate for assembling blocks. It can also help children find ways to assemble different blocks and add to the fun. When folded, it occupies a small space and becomes a block play board that can be placed and used in various places. The boxes can be stacked or placed side by side in multiple sets, whether folded or unfolded.

The technical proposals adopted by this utility model to achieve the above objectives are as follows.

It is a folding storage box dedicated to the Lego block. The box has a rectangular structure and consists of an upper lid, a middle part of the box and a bottom part of the box. It has two types of states, folding and non-folding. At the time of non-folding, the upper lid is connected to the upper end of the middle part of the box, the middle part of the box is inserted into the bottom of the box, a storage space is formed between the three parties, and the box is folded. Occasionally, the middle part of the box is folded into the bottom of the box and the top lid is connected to the top of the bottom of the box.

The middle part of the box surrounds the first front, rear, left, and right panels whose upper ends are flush with each other, and the bottom ends of the symmetrical first front and rear panels are symmetrical first. Lower than the bottom edge of the left and right panels, the front edge of the first left and right panels is provided with a front panel fixing edge that is curved 90 degrees forward, and the rear edge is provided with a rear panel fixing edge that is curved 90 degrees backward. The front panel fixing edge and the first front panel are connected and fixed by an engaging member and an engaging groove, and the rear panel fixing edge and the first rear panel are connected and fixed by an engaging member and an engaging groove. The bottom of the box is composed of a bottom plate and second front, rear, left, and right panels provided above the bottom plate, and the second front and rear panels are symmetrical, concave panels having a square opening. Yes, the width of the left and right edges of the second front panel square opening corresponds to the front panel fixing edge and is connected by an engaging member and an engaging groove, and the left and right edges of the second rear panel square opening. The width of the edge corresponds to the rear panel fixing edge and is connected by an engaging member and an engaging groove, and the lower ends of the first front and rear panels are connected by the engaging member and the engaging groove to the second front and rear. It is inserted into the square opening of the panel and connected by a folding member, and the lower ends of the first left and right panels are inserted and folded corresponding to the upper ends of the second left and right panels by the engaging member and the engaging groove. Connected by members, the first front, rear, left, and right panels can be folded into the box and, in turn, flatly folded into the bottom of the box.

Folding members are provided at the lower ends of the first front, rear, left, and right panels, and corresponding folding member insertion grooves are provided on the second front, rear, left, and right panels. When folding the middle part of the box, first fold the first front and rear panels, then fold the first left and right panels, and the first front and rear panels that are located above when folded are the folding members. The first front and rear panels can be folded flat by moving the folding member up and down in the folding member insertion groove, and the one of the first left and right panels located above when folding can fold the folding member into the folding member insertion groove. The first left and right panels can be folded flat by moving them up and down.
