The metal mesh plate  1  is an integrated stretching plate mesh or woven mesh structure provided with any openings. According to the technical scheme, one part of the metal mesh plate  1  is a mesh structure, and the other part is a metal plate. The outer shape of the metal mesh plate is square, round, elliptical, fan-shaped or semi-circular. The metal plate is provided with decorative patterns which can be various patterns with decorative effects. The metal plate can also be provided with through holes for placing potted plants and other articles. In addition, the reinforcing frame body  3  is not limited to the ring shape shown in  FIG.  1   . When the reinforcing frame body  3  is used as the reinforcing frame body of the cabinet, the reinforcing frame body can have other shapes, which can mount at least two metal mesh plates  1  with outer frames  2 . 
     The outer frame  2  is provided with a first clamping part  21  and a second clamping part  22 . The first clamping part  21  and the second clamping part  22  clamp the periphery of the metal mesh plate  1 . The second clamping part  22  is erected at the top of the reinforcing frame body  3 . In addition, the second clamping part  22  of the outer frame  2  is provided with a reinforcing folding part  23  integrally bent with the second clamping part  22 . The outer wall of the reinforcing folding part  23  is provided with at least one buckle  231 . The shape of the buckle  231  is spherical or hemispherical. The inner wall of the reinforcing frame body  3  is provided with a clamping groove  31  matched with the buckle  231 . 
     Specifically, in this technical scheme, the rigidity strength of the outer frame  2  is enhanced by bending a reinforcing folding part  23  on the second clamping part  22 . At the same time, a buckle  231  is provided on the outer wall of the reinforcing folding part  23  and a clamping groove  31  matched with the buckle  231  is provided on the inner wall of the reinforcing frame body  3 , so that when the buckle  231  on the reinforcing folding part  23  is clamped into the clamping groove  31  on the reinforcing frame body  3 , the outer frame  2  can be fixedly connected with the reinforcing frame body  3 . Through the double reinforcement of the reinforcing folding part  23  and the reinforcing frame body  3 , the metal mesh plate structure of the technical scheme has the advantages of high rigidity and high strength. In addition, the metal mesh structure of this technical scheme has no screws at all in appearance, which meets the aesthetic requirements of users. Secondly, in order to further meet the aesthetic requirements of users, the metal mesh structure of this technical scheme can also make the outer frame  2  and the reinforcing frame body  3  into two different colors, respectively. To sum up, the metal mesh structure of this technical scheme has the advantages of simple structure, low cost, convenient assembly, high rigidity strength and attractive appearance. 
     The bending part of the four corners of the outer frame  2  and the reinforcing frame body  3  can be directly bent, or notches can be provided at the bending part of the four corners of the outer frame  2  and the reinforcing frame body  3 , so that the four corners of the outer frame  2  and the reinforcing frame body  3  are bent. 
     Referring to  FIG.  4    and  FIG.  5   , in order to further strengthen the rigidity strength of the outer frame  2 , the end of the reinforcing folding part  23  is also bent with an inward or outward bending part  232 . The bending part  232  is not limited to the shape shown in  FIG.  5   . The shape of the bending part  232  is circular arc or square, and other bending shapes can be used. 
     Referring to  FIG.  6   , it is not necessary to provide the reinforcing frame body  3 , and the reinforcing folding part  23  can also play a role of supporting the laminate  9 . The laminate  9  can be mounted on the reinforcing folding part  23  at any time or taken out at any time. Of course, if the screw mounting hole  233  is provided in the reinforcing folding part  23 , screws can be screwed on the laminate  9  through the screw mounting hole  233  at this time. The fastening connection between the metal mesh structure and the laminate  9  in this technical scheme can be realized, thus facilitating the formation of a cabinet structure with simple structure and high rigidity. 
     Several notches can also be provided in the reinforcing folding portion  23 , which are used to provide the support rods. 
     According to the technical scheme, one part of the metal mesh plate  1  is a mesh structure, and the other part is a metal plate. The metal mesh plate  1  can also be a metal plate as a whole. The metal mesh plate  1  can be combined with the outer frame  2 , or the metal mesh plate  1  and the outer frame  2  can be combined with the reinforcing frame body  3 , which can be used as a laminate of a shelf, or as a side plate or a door panel of a cabinet, a stool or a table, etc. The outer frame  2  and the reinforcing frame body  3  can be provided with mounting holes or screw holes. 
     Refer to  FIG.  7   . When the metal mesh structure of this technical scheme is used as a laminate, the outer frame  2  can further comprise a blocking part  24  integrally bent with the first clamping part  21 . The shape of the blocking part  24  is circular arc or square, or other bent shapes. The blocking part  24  plays the role of limiting and blocking, which can prevent articles from falling down. 
     In addition, when the metal mesh plate structure of this technical scheme is used as a laminate, the metal mesh plate  1  can be provided with at least one arc groove  93  or U-shaped groove. Referring to  FIG.  8   , the arc groove  93  or U-shaped groove is used to store articles with curved sides (such as wine bottles). In addition, the metal mesh plate  1  can also be provided with at least one concave article storage groove. As shown in  FIG.  9   , the article storage groove is punched down along the dotted line  92  in the figure, which is convenient to classify and store articles, and at the same time, the articles will not easily fall off. 
     Refer to  FIG.  10    and  FIG.  11   . In another embodiment other than this embodiment, the reinforcing frame body  3  is provided with an annular concave first stepped groove  32 , and the outer frame  2  is embedded in the first stepped groove  32 . On the one hand, this structural design can further enhance the rigidity strength of the reinforcing frame body  3 , and on the other hand, the embedded outer frame  2  is more beautiful. Especially when the reinforcing frame body  3  and the outer frame  2  are made into two different colors, respectively, the appearance is more personalized and meets requirements of different users. 
     Secondly, referring to  FIG.  12   , the reinforcing frame body  3  can be further provided with a second stepped groove  33  which is provided adjacent to the first stepped groove  32 , and the reinforcing folding part  23  is close to or abutted against the stepped end face  331  of the second stepped groove  33 . With this structural design, the reinforced folding part  23  can be hidden, and the overall appearance integrity of the whole metal mesh structure is stronger. At the same time, users will not touch the end of the reinforced folding part  23 , and the end of the reinforced folding part  23  will not cut their hands. Of course, the reinforcing frame body  3  with this structural design has stronger rigidity. 
     As another embodiment of the present disclosure, referring to  FIG.  13   ,  FIG.  14    and  FIG.  15   , the outer frame  2  is embedded into the reinforcing frame body  3 , so that the outer frame  2  and the reinforcing frame body  3  form an embedded metal mesh structure. The reinforcing frame body  3  is provided with an annular concave first stepped groove  32 , the outer frame  2  is embedded in the reinforcing frame body  3 , so that the second clamping part  22  is erected on the first stepped groove  32 , and the outer side of the reinforcing folding part  23  abuts against the inner side of the first stepped groove  32  or the reinforcing folding part  23  is clamped with the reinforcing frame body  3 . In this way, the outer frame  2  can be embedded into the reinforcing frame body  3 . The side wall at the top of the first stepped groove  32  of the reinforcing frame body  3  can form an integrally bent blocking part to prevent the articles placed on the metal mesh plate  1  from slipping off. In addition, the reinforcing frame body  3  is provided with a notch  34 , which is convenient for taking and placing articles from the metal mesh plate  1 . 
     The top of the first clamping part  21  may be flush with the top of the reinforcing frame body  3 , and the top of the first clamping part  21  may be lower than the top of the reinforcing frame body  3 . 
     The above embodiments are the preferred embodiments of the present disclosure, but the implementation of the present disclosure is not limited by the above embodiments.
