A folding box (100), comprising: a bottom plate (1), and a pair of first side plates (2) and a pair of a second side plates (3) capable of being folded with respect to the bottom plate (1). The first side plates (2) and the second side plates (3) are releasably interlocked via a locking mechanism (4). The locking mechanism (4) comprises a handle (41), a locking member (42), and a guidance feature (31). When the first side plates (2) and the second side plates (3) are in a locked state, the handle (41) restricts the position of the locking member (42), thus limiting the movement of the locking member (42), when the handle (41) restricts the position of the locking member (42), thus limiting the movement of the locking member (42), when the handle (41) moves and provides the locking member (42) space required for movement of the locking member (42), the locking member (42) cooperates with the guidance feature (31) to drive the locking member (42) to move so as to unlock the same. When the folding box is empty and recycled, the side plates are easy and convenient to unlock, and are difficult to be unlocked by an accidental triggering when using.

The present invention relates to storage and display device comprising a base wall and a side wall that are connected together and operable to move between a folded and an expanded configuration, the expanded configuration defining an interior region for the storage of product between the side wall and the base wall, and the side wall and the base wall are arranged to provide a top opening and a side opening to the interior region. The device comprises at least one locking arm arrangement comprising a pair of connected locking arms each having a side wall engaging locking surface and together operable to move between a locked configuration and an unlocked configuration in the expanded configuration of the device. The locking arm arrangement strengthens and provides considerable stability and rigidity to the device in the expanded configuration by preventing sideways movement or wobble of the side wall when of the device in the expanded configuration. The present invention provides a re-usable storage and display device for the transport and display of product, such as in a retail environment.

The present invention discloses a novel apparatus and way for securing components of a shipping container. A locking mechanism is provided having a pin, spur gear and main gear coupled together and controlled by a handle such that rotation of the handle causes rotation of the gears and translation of a locking pin used to secure adjacent components of the container.

A container includes a first panel with a detent and a pin extending therefrom, a second panel that extends transverse to the first panel, and a bracket removably coupled to the first panel via engagement with the detent and the pin such that the bracket prevents movement of the second panel relative to the first panel. The detent is selectively depressed to thereby decouple the bracket from the first panel.

Folding transport container intended mainly for transport of materials, goods, and other cargo, comprising the base, side panels with side uprights (2, 3), where these panels have pivot links with edges of the base and lock-release mechanism (1). The lock-release mechanism is placed inside the side upright (2) of the first side panel and includes the lever (4) with catch (5) and spring (6), wherein the lever (4) is placed in rotary fashion inside the side upright (2) of the first side panel using fixed axis (7) so that one end of the lever (4) is placed within the hollow 1 (8) of the side upright (2) of the first side panel, while the other end of the lever (2) has fixed link to a catch (5), which is placed inside the hollow 2 (9) of the side upright (2) of the first side panel. The side upright (3) of the adjacent side panel is equipped with an opening (10), whose shape and dimensions are adapted to the shape and dimensions of the catch (5) and it is in one plane with the catch (5). The spring (6) is linked to the lever (4).

Implementations disclosed and claimed herein provide a customized storage system. In one implementation, a folding crate movable between a storage position and a collapsed position is provided. One or more customizable and modular attachments to the storage crates may be provided to attaching to or otherwise mating with a side of a crate. The modular attachments may include a universal connector that connects to an opening in any side of a storage crate and one or more accessories that mate with the universal connector, with each of the accessories having a specific use or utility, such as a cup holder accessory, a handle accessory, a tool holder accessory, and the like.

A portable deployable container system has structural elements, including a base, a cover, and a set of panels, which can be manipulated into at least two container configurations. In one configuration, a container is formed by releasably securing the cover to the base to define a first volume. Some or all of the panels may be enclosed within such first volume, defining an undeployed configuration for the system. A second configuration involves removably securing some or all of the set of panels to the base and enclosing the panels with the cover, thereby deploying the system and forming a second, deployed configuration enclosing a volume larger than the first volume. Interconnections between the structural elements benefit from duckbill connections which add strength to the configurations by receiving flanges of first elements into corresponding channels of second elements formed by flared walls on such structural elements.

A modular and scalable box/container system comprises square or rectangular panels having holes on all four sides, an extension-flat-angled connector for extending a vertically-oriented panel by securing it to another vertically-oriented panel, a corner-flat-angled connector for securing two vertical panels in a square corner configuration, a corner-angled-angled connector for securing a vertically-oriented panel to a horizontally-oriented panel, and an extension-angled-angled connector for extending a horizontally-oriented panel by securing it to another horizontally-oriented panel. The system further comprises bolts and nuts, or other hardware, for securing panels to connectors.
