MODULAR DRAWER BOX STRUCTURE

Abstract

The present invention relates to a modular drawer box structure, a plastic drawer box, its volume of packaging material can be largely reduced so that reduces the transportation and warehousing costs. The bottom plate and two side plates of the drawer box can integrated and folded, the connective interface between the bottom plate and two side plates is placed with V-type folded slot for two side plates forming through upward turnover. Different embedded pieces are individually extended and installed. Through those embedded pieces, intercalation of additional face plate and back plate can be individually established. The embedded slots are installed at two laterals and the lower side of inner surfaces of the face plate and the back plate with corresponding embedded holes placed at the outer side of the embedded slots, thus connect the bottom plate, two side plates, the face plate and the back plate.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

(a) Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to a modular drawer box structure, in which the face plate and the back plate of the drawer box are mainly designed to be separated, embedded, and assembled, and the bottom plate and two side plates are planned to be integrated and folded, thus the drawer box is accordingly provided with collocating function of doing it yourself (DIY), to decrease the volume of packaging material when delivery, to reduce the transportation and warehousing costs, and to improve the industrial utilization value and economic benefits.

(b) Description of the Prior Art

Generally, the drawer storage case or order cabinet for storing clothing, bedding, toys or sundries, in structure design, as shown in FIG. 1, is mainly assembled through frame body (10) or box made of plastic material collocated with drawer box (20), in which the frame body (10) is assembled by box plates and plate racks of pre-determined number and size, and accordingly forming the holding space of the drawer box (20), which is made of one injection molding through a mold to be fitted in the trough-like holding space formed by the frame body (10) and to be provided with reciprocating and sliding functions for goods conveniently put into or taken out, thus the drawer storage case or order cabinet is well loved and used by the average consumer, because various goods in home space are effectively stored and properly categorized, messy placement of goods is prevented, and home space is more tidy.

But, as for the structural design of the above storage case (cabinet), because the space volume of the drawer box made of one injection molding of plastic materials is fixed, when the drawer box collocated with frame body to form a complete storage case is sold, which is not dismantled for packaging, and the volume of whole package is very large, thus the significant transportation and warehousing space is taken, and the cost is accordingly increased, so it does not match the value of industrial use.

Furthermore, due to the fixed and usually large volume of the storage case, the consumer needs to drive their own car or asks the dealer to carry the storage case to resolve the transportation problem after buying, not only considerable trouble and inconvenience, but also derivative unnecessary freight, so this is not an ideal design and needs to be improved.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

In view of the problems and shortcomings of the existing integrated drawer storage case (cabinet), the inventor researches and develops the modular drawer box structure of the present invention based on many years experience and technology in related industrial, and the main objective is to make the drawer box adopt the package of unassembled state when delivery through structural component design, to significantly decrease the volume of packaging material, to effectively reduce the transportation and warehousing costs, and to provide with the perfect industrial utilization value and economic benefits.

Another objective of the present invention is to provide with collocating function of DIY through structural component design, except for achieving the function of decreasing the volume of packaging material.

For achieving the above-mentioned objectives, in the structural design of the present invention, the bottom plate and two side plates are mainly planned to be integrated and folded, and the face plate and back plate of the embedded piece and drawer box individually extending to the front and rear lateral margins are separated, embedded, and assembled, and the pre-determined embedded block of the embedded piece is further coordinated with the pre-determined embedded hole of the embedded slot for the face and back plates to get embedding positioning and to provide the drawer box with collocating function of DIY, thus the volume of packaging material is decreases, the transportation and warehousing costs are reduced, and industrial utilization value and economic benefits are improved.
