Wherein the foldable storage box has two states, one is an assembled state in which the two first side plates 20 and the two second side plates 30 are connected end-to-end in sequence through clamping of the first clamping structure 24 and the second clamping structure 311. That is, when the two first clamping structures 24 of each of the first side plates 20 are respectively engaged with the second clamping structures 311 on the same side of the two adjacent second side plates 30, the foldable storage box is in the assembled state. At this time, the two first side plates 20, the two second side walls and the bottom panel 10 are jointly formed to form a storage groove for storing items. And the other is a storage state in which the two first side plates 20 and the two second side plates 30 are both rotated towards each other to be overlapped on the bottom panel 10. That is, the first side plate 20 and the second side plate 30 are released from the clamping connection between the first clamping structure 24 and the second clamping structure 311, and both are rotated inward, until the first side plate and the second side plate are sequentially stacked together on the bottom plate 10, the foldable storage box is in the storage state.
The foldable storage box can be assembled to form an assembled state when needed, and disassembled to form a stored state when not needed. Since the first side plate 20 and the second side plate 30 are both rotatably connected to the bottom panel 10, the assembly steps of the first side plate 20 and the second side plate 30 and the bottom panel 10 are saved, at the same time, the included angle between the first side plate 20 and the second side plate 30 is fixed, and the considered angle adjustment is omitted; and when the foldable storage box is in the storage state, the space can be saved, which is convenient for storage, and the loss of components of the foldable storage box can also be avoided.
In one embodiment, each of the first side plates 20 is provided with two mounting grooves 201 facing the other first side plate 20; the two mounting grooves 201 are respectively close to the two second edges 102, and groove walls of the mounting grooves 201 are provided with the first clamping structure 24; two ends of the second side plate 30 close to the first edge 101 are both provided with concave stripes 31, the concave stripes 31 are provided with the second clamping structure 311, the two concave stripes 31 of each of the second side plates 30 are respectively inserted into the mounting grooves 201 of the two first side plates 20, and the second clamping structure 311 is clamped and matched with the first clamping structure 24 when the concave stripes 31 are inserted into the mounting grooves 201.
When the foldable storage box needs to be assembled, the two second side plates 30 are firstly rotated to an assembly position, and then one of the first side plates 20 is rotated from the outside to the inside until the same-side concave stripes 31 of the two second side plates 30 are respectively inserted into the two mounting grooves 201 of rotating the first side plate 20. A rotation of the second side plate 30 is limited the groove wall of the mounting groove 201, and the two first clamping structures 24 on the first side plate 20 can be respectively clamped with the second clamping structures 311 on the two concave stripes 31 during the process of inserting the concave stripe 31 into the mounting groove 201, so that a rotation of the first side plate 20 is restricted, and thus a positioning of the first side plate 20 and the two second side plates 30 is achieved. And then the other first side plate 20 is rotated from the outside to the inside until the other side concave stripe 31 of the two second side plates 30 are respectively inserted into the two mounting grooves 201 of the rotating first side plate 20. At this time, the two first clamping structures 24 on the first side plate 20 are clamped with the second clamping structures 311 on the two concave stripes 31, so that a rotation of the first side plate 20 is restricted, and thus the positioning of the other first side plate 20 and the two second side plates 30 is achieved. By this way, the foldable storage box is in the assembled state, and the two first side plates 20 and the two second side plates 30 are forming the storage groove of the foldable storage box together with the bottom panel 10. When the first side plate 20 and the second side plate 30 are assembled, it is only necessary to ensure an insertion of the concave stripe 31 and the mounting groove 201, so that a clamping connection between the first clamping structure 24 and the second clamping structure is achieved and a manual snapping operation is eliminated, resulting in a quick assembly of the foldable storage box. Referring to
It should be noted that an inner side is an accommodating groove side of the bottom panel 10; an inner side of the first side plate 20 is the side of the first side plate 20 facing the other first side plate 20; an inner side of the second side plate 30 is the side of the second side plate 30 facing the other second side plate 30.

Meanwhile, when the locking block 32 moves into the mounting groove 201, most of the area of the concave stripe 31 is inserted into the mounting groove 201. Through the above method, the stability of inserting the concave stripe 31 into the mounting groove 201 is improved, and the locking block 32 is facilitated to lift the inner groove wall of the mounting groove 201. It is also avoided that part of the concave stripe 31 is disengaged from the mounting groove 201 during the process that the locking block 32 is pushed up the limiting strip 23.
In order to facilitate the locking block 32 to push up the inner groove wall of the mounting groove 201, referring to
