FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a three-door storage box for household goods.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Storage boxes are important for organizing different items in daily life. To ensure easy access and cleanliness, the existing storage boxes generally include a box body and a lid. The box body opens at the top and the lid is closed to the opening. Because of this structure (whether with a separate lid or a flip-open type), once stacked up, it is inconvenient for users to access items stored in a box towards the bottom as they must remove all the boxes on the top.

The present invention provides a three-door type storage box with the functional structure and convenient usage to solve the problems stated above. The box comprises a front box panel, a rear box panel, a bottom box panel, a top box panel, and a buckle panel. Thus, the box can be opened in three directions from left, right and the front which provides easy access to the contents in the lower level storage boxes when stacking up. In addition, through the horizontal fixed jacks/horizontal fixed bolts, vertical fixed jacks/vertical fixed bolts, and then through the spacer pins, the skeleton structure of the storage box can be tightly connected and easy to disassemble, which increases the service life. When stacked up, the convex block and groove will lock the position which helps organizing boxes and increasing the stability. Furthermore, the simple structure of the present invention has the advantage of a lower production cost.

BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION

In a variant, a storage box, comprises a body having six faces. The box has a first side frame and an opposing second side frame, with each side frame having an outer frame, an inner frame, and a frame door. The storage box has a front panel having a plurality of slits. The box has a rear panel and a bottom panel. A top panel is configured to attach to a buckle panel having a plurality of locking tabs configured to be received by the slits. A first side and an opposing second side of the front panel has a plurality of fixed pins and a first side and an opposing second side of the rear panel has a plurality of fixed pins, the pins being configured to secure an outer edge of the body into a mounting groove. The outer frame has a plurality of fixed jacks configured to correspond to a plurality of fixed bolts on the inner frame. Fixed bolts are configured to loosen and the frame door and inner frame are configured to separate from the outer door when the frame doors open.

In another variant, the frame door has a plurality of riveting holes configured to receive a plurality of riveting fasteners on the inner frame.

In a further variant, a plurality of riveting clasps are configured to secure the frame door onto the inner frame.

In yet another variant, each locking tab has a semi-circular shape.

In another variant, a bottom of the outer frame has three horizontal fixed jacks and a top of the outer frame has two vertical fixed jacks.

In a further variant, a bottom of the inner frame has three horizontal fixed bolts, configured to attach to the horizontal jacks on the outer frame, and two vertical fixed bolts, configured to attach to the vertical jacks on the outer frame.

In yet another variant, the outer frame has a plurality of spacer pins.

In another variant, the inner frame has handles disposed below the vertical fixed bolts.

In a further variant, a top of an outer frame of a first box has a plurality of grooves configured to receive a plurality of convex blocks on a bottom of an outer frame of a second box disposed above the first box.

In yet another variant, the frame door is configured to be hot-pressed onto the inner frame.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION

In a variant, referring generally toFIGS. 1-8, a three-door type storage box comprises an integrally-formed box body with six faces and a side frame part. The integrally-formed box body comprises the front box panel1, the rear box panel2, the bottom box panel3, the top box panel4as well as the buckle panel5. Two first fixed pins6are arranged on both left and right sides of the front box panel1and the rear box panel2. The front box panel1has three line-type slots7. The buckle panel5has three semi-circular locking tabs8corresponding to the line-type slots7, which establish a hatchback opening and closing. The side frame part includes the outer frame9, the inner frame10and the frame door11. The outer frame9has a mounting groove.

In another variant, referring toFIGS. 2-6, during assembly, the outer edge of the integrally-formed box body is inserted into the mounting groove and locked by the first fixed pins6. At the bottom of the outer frame9, there are three horizontal fixed jacks13. At the top of the outer frame9, there are two vertical fixed jacks14. The upper and lower ends of the outer frame9are provided with spacer pins15. The spacer pins15restrict the position of the outer frame9and the inner frame10and prevent the inner frame10being pushed too far during installation.

There are two convex blocks12set at the bottom of the outer frame9, corresponding to the grooves21set at the top of the outer frame9. When multiple three-door type storage boxes are stacked, the convex blocks12of the box above can be placed in the grooves21of the box below to prevent the boxes from moving around and place boxes more neatly. The inner frame10has three horizontal fixed bolts16at the lower end, corresponding to the horizontal fixed jacks13, and two vertical fixed bolts17at the upper end, corresponding to the vertical fixed jacks14. Handles18are set below the vertical fixed bolts17. The handle18is a circular ring. To open the door11from both sides, the handle18is pulled outward to loosen the horizontal fixed bolts16and the vertical fixed bolts17. The frame door11and the inner frame10will then leave the outer frame9.

In a further variant, referring toFIGS. 7-8, the frame door11is fixed on the inner frame10by a riveting device. The riveting device includes a loose-leaf riveting clasp19and a riveting fastener20. The frame door11is provided with riveting holes to let the riveting fasteners20on the inner frame10pass through. Then the loose-leaf riveting clasps19lock the frame door11on the inner frame10.

In yet another variant, the frame door11is hot-pressed on the inner frame10.
