Jade, description of the invention The technical field of the invention The present invention relates to a storage device, especially a storage device, which is equipped with a plurality of glass substrates of different lengths, and can reduce the volume and freight of empty boxes. PRIOR ART Generally speaking, during the manufacturing process of a liquid crystal display, glass substrates are moved quite frequently. For example, glass manufacturers produce glass substrates, and then gradually complete liquid crystal displays through other manufacturers (such as color filter manufacturers, display manufacturers, and equipment manufacturers, etc.), so among the various manufacturers This requires handling of glass substrates. In addition, even in the same factory, glass substrates need to be transported between processes. In the process of transportation, it is necessary to use a storage box to set up the glass substrate to avoid damage to the glass substrate and to transport multiple glass substrates at the same time. For example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 7-3 0 0 7 2 discloses a storage box for placing a glass substrate. The detailed structure is described below. Please refer to FIG. 1. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a conventional storage box for placing a glass substrate. As shown in FIG. 1, a storage box 10 includes a carcass 1 2, two groove plates 16 installed in parallel and oppositely inside the box body 12, and a bottom plate 2 below each groove plate 16 2.
