Abstract:
Foldable storage compartment having front and rear panels that are traversable closer to or further away from each other is disclosed. Left and right side collapsible panels may be attached to the front and rear panels. The shelves of the foldable storage compartment may be interlinked with each other by way of a vertical linkage rod and connected to the front panel with a front panel linkage so that traversal of the front and rear panels closer to or further away from each other will also collapse and erect the shelves simultaneously.

Claim (Index 10):
A method for collapsing and erecting a foldable storage compartment, the method comprising the steps of:\n providing a foldable storage compartment, the foldable storage compartment comprising:\n a front panel and a rear panel; \n a first shelf defining a first side edge and an opposed second side edge to the first side edge and a third front edge and an opposed fourth rear edge to the third front edge, the first shelf defining a horizontal axis by a direction from the first side edge to the opposed second side edge, the first shelf being foldable about the horizontal axis, the first shelf being rigid in a direction from the first side edge to the opposed second side edge, the first shelf being pivotable about the fourth rear edge and the fourth rear edge being aligned to the rear panel; \n a collapsible first sidewall disposed adjacent to the first side edge, the collapsible first sidewall attached to the front panel and the rear panel, the collapsible first sidewall being rigid vertically and being collapsible about a first vertical axis; \n a collapsible second sidewall disposed adjacent to the second side edge, the collapsible second sidewall attached to the front panel and the rear panel, the collapsible second sidewall being rigid vertically and being collapsible about a second vertical axis; \n wherein either (1) the horizontal axis about which the first shelf is foldable is aligned to a midpoint between the third front edge and the opposed fourth rear edge, the third and fourth edges of the first shelf being pivotally attached to front and rear sides of the collapsible first and second sidewalls or (2) the horizontal axis about which the first shelf is foldable is aligned to the fourth rear edge of the first shelf and the foldable storage compartment further comprises a linkage pivotally attached to the midpoint of the first shelf between the third front edge and the opposed fourth rear edge and the front side of either one or both of the collapsible first and second sidewalls; \n pulling the front and rear panels further away from each other when the foldable storage compartment is in an collapsed position to traverse the foldable storage compartment to an erect position.
