Referring to Fig. 7, Fig. 8 and Fig. 9, in addition, when the upper cover 31 and the box body 41 are bent to their respective centers, each upper connector 321 is close to each lower connector 421, and each upper connector 321 The upper assembly part 322 is mated with the lower assembly part 422 of each lower connecting part 421, so that the upper connecting part 321 is detachably connected to the corresponding lower connecting part 421, so that the bent upper cover 31 and the bent The rear box body 41 defines a storage space 6 for accommodating the side panels 21 and the door panel unit 1 .

It is supplemented that, in this embodiment, each side panel 21 can be folded in half, but not limited thereto, as long as each side panel 21 can be accommodated in the storage space 6 , the intended effect of this embodiment can be achieved. In addition, the bending method of the upper cover 31 , the box body 41 and each side plate 21 is achieved through creases and gaps corresponding to the creases, but it is not limited thereto. For example: it can also be bent by setting pivots, and in addition, it is not limited to two-fold or three-fold.

3 and 8, it is worth noting that the upper assembly parts 322, the first lower installation part 117 and the second lower installation part 127 are one of through holes and protrusions, and the lower assembly parts 422. The first upper mounting portion 116 and the second upper mounting portion 126 are the other one of a through hole and a protrusion. In this embodiment, the upper assembly parts 322, the first lower installation part 117 and the second lower installation part 127 are through holes, and the lower assembly parts 422, the first upper installation part 116 and the second The upper mounting portion 126 is a protrusion. In addition, the number of the upper connectors 321 and the lower connectors 421 is not limited to the aforementioned four, and may be more than two.

The box unit 4 and the upper cover unit 3 can be switched between a use state (Fig. 1-5) and a storage state (Fig. 6-9). In the use state, the upper cover 31 passes through the upper connection group 32 and the box body 41 is connected to the first door panel group 11 and the second door panel group 12 through the lower connection group 42, so that the door panel unit 1, the side panel unit 2, the upper cover unit 3 and the box body unit 4 define a The pet space5. When in this storage state, the upper cover 31 and the box body 41 are bent towards their respective centers, and the lower connecting group 42 is connected to the upper connecting group 32, so that the bent upper cover 31 and the bent box body 41 The receiving space 6 is defined.

Referring to Fig. 6 and Fig. 9, since the upper cover 31 and the box body 41 have been bent in the storage state, the overall volume is reduced. In addition, the disassembled first door panel group 11, the second door panel Group 12 and these side plates 21 are also accommodated in this accommodation space 6, side It is convenient for the user to assemble it when using it next time, and avoids the trouble of finding another storage space for the user to store parts separately. In summary, the effect of convenient assembly is achieved.

It is worth noting that the direction in which the first door panel group 11, the second door panel group 12 and the side panels 21 are located in the storage space 6 as shown in FIG. 9 is one of the implementation modes of this embodiment. This limits the scope of practice of the present invention.

Referring to Figures 1 to 3, specifically, when the user intends to take the pet out, first connect the lower assembly parts 422 of the box unit 4 to the first lower installation parts 117 of the door panel unit 1 With the second lower mounting portion 127 , the box unit 4 is connected to the door panel unit 1 . Next, align the ends of each side panel 21 from top to bottom and enter the corresponding first groove 115 and second groove 125 of the door panel unit 1 , so that the side panel unit 2 is connected to the door panel unit 1 . Finally, the upper assembly parts 322 of the upper cover unit 3 are connected to the first upper mounting parts 116 and the second upper mounting parts 126 of the door panel unit 1, so that the door panel unit 1, the side panel unit 2, The upper cover unit 3 and the box unit 4 are connected to each other to be in this use state.

Referring to FIG. 1 , FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 , it is added that, in this embodiment, the upper cover unit 3 further includes a handle 33 disposed on the upper cover 31 , so as to facilitate the user to carry it. In addition, the first door panel 113 is pivotally connected to the upper side of the first frame body 114 and extends along the left-right direction X2, and is located in the pet space 5, and the first door panel 113 completely covers the first opening. 111 against the first door frame 112 . The second door panel 123 is pivotally connected to the frame portion of the second frame body 124 extending along the up-down direction X3, and the The second door panel 123 will not abut against the second door frame 122 when completely covering the second opening 121 . Therefore, pets can enter the pet space 5 through the first opening 111 covered by the first door panel 113, and pets cannot pass through the first opening 111 from the pet space 5 because the first door panel 113 is against the first door frame 112. go out. In addition, preferably, the second door panel 123 is located outside the pet space 5 so that the second door panel 123 will not occupy the pet space 5 when pivoting, so that the pets have more room to move.

Referring to Fig. 6, Fig. 8 and Fig. 9, in addition, when the user wants to store, the upper cover unit 3 is first detached from the door panel unit 1, and then the door panel unit 1 is detached from the side panel unit 2 and the box For the body unit 4 , the box body 41 is then bent, and the side panel unit 2 and the door panel unit 1 are disposed on the box body 41 . Finally, the upper cover 31 is bent, and the upper assembly parts 322 of the upper connectors 321 are connected to the lower assembly parts 422 of the lower connectors 421, so that the side panel unit 2 and the door panel unit 1 are accommodated in the The storage space 6 defined by the bent upper cover 31 and the bent box body 41 .

It should be noted that, in this embodiment, when the side panel unit 2 and the door panel unit 1 are located in the storage space 6, their movement along the front-rear direction X1 is limited by the upper connecting group 32 and the lower connecting group 42 will be restricted by the wall, and the movement along the left-right direction X2 will be restricted by the walls of the upper cover 31 and the box body 41 , so it will not be easily separated from the receiving space 6 .

In addition, referring to FIG. 10 , another variation of the foldable storage box of the present invention is to extend the length of the upper cover 31 and the box body 41 along the front-to-back direction X1. In other words, the length between the two creases of the upper cover 31 and the corresponding ends is extended and the length between the two creases of the box body 41 and the corresponding ends is extended, and the upper connecting member 321 also There is another upper assembly part 322 (marked in FIG. 10 ) for the lower assembly part 422 to engage, so that in the storage state, there is no gap between the upper cover 31 and the box body 41 when combined, thereby increasing the storage state time structural strength.

To sum up, the folding storage box of the present invention, by providing the box body unit 4 that can be switched between the use state and the storage state, allows the storage space 6 defined by the bent upper cover 31 and the bent box body 41 to be able to The side panels 21 and the door panel unit 1 are accommodated to reduce the storage volume, and all components of the present invention are stored in the storage space 6 without being lost, so the purpose of the present invention can be truly achieved.

But what is described above is only an embodiment of the present invention, and should not limit the scope of the present invention. All simple equivalent changes and modifications made according to the patent scope of the present invention and the content of the patent specification are still within the scope of the present invention.
