Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a modular quick-release toolbox according to the preamble of claim 1 and a toolbox rack according to the preamble of claim 9.
  • the present invention relates more particularly to a tool box system consisting of several modular stacking drawers that can be assembled to each other by simple hooking operations.
  • the bins are intended for the transport of tools and components of all kinds; the crate is easy to transport to its place of use.
  • This invention can be applied in the field of industry for the production of storage boxes of all kinds for DIY.
  • Such storage cases are also used in families to store tools and the necessary for DIY.
  • These storage boxes normally consist of a rigid body, usually made of plastic or metal, with handles or a strap to carry them to the shoulder. Nevertheless, their overall dimensions can not be changed.
  • the improvised assembly of compartments prevents the user from immediately recognizing the objects that are stored in a given bin, if not memory in case of repeated and continuous use.
  • Each bumper described in said document is inserted into a slot in which act two leaf-shaped leaf springs arranged in a slot in said slot.
  • the slot has a stop supporting the stopper once this element is inserted into the slot, and a vertical rib and reinforcing member to prevent bending of the rib following the action of the stopper.
  • This structure is complicated, has a plurality of parts that can easily be broken during the coupling of the frames, and is relatively expensive. In addition, it does not allow the stall frames outside the box, which limits the functionality.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a tool box with modular drawers with hooks and quick release to eliminate or substantially reduce the aforementioned drawbacks.
  • the present invention also makes it possible to add a toolbox to the set of lockers, all remaining modular hook and quick release. This set is easy to manufacture or the price competitive and cheap.

  • the attachment devices and quick release are formed of attachment teeth or dowels on the lower or upper side of each frame and their respective tabs located within convenient openings, positioned in the upper or lower side portion of each frame, said tabs including projections made to facilitate manual pushing on themselves to perform the stall operation.
  • the teeth or the pegs of a frame are housed in the respective slots of the frame below by exerting pressure on the tabs to the outside of the box.
  • the short side walls of the frame of each rack have recesses that can accommodate plates or labels carrying a representation and / or alphanumeric characters to recognize immediately and without error the contents of the locker corresponding.
  • the visible front wall of each locker has a handle for gripping on the part of the user so as to extract the rack from the frame to access the inside.
  • the box can also include accessories of different types, such as wheels to apply to the frame below the entire stack, a cover for the frame at the top of the stack of lockers, a handle attached to the upper frame and projecting in the central area so as to carry the body as if it were a suitcase and a side handle protruding from the top of the box, integral with an amount to support the axis of the casters and to provide rigidity to the modular structure.
  • accessories of different types such as wheels to apply to the frame below the entire stack, a cover for the frame at the top of the stack of lockers, a handle attached to the upper frame and projecting in the central area so as to carry the body as if it were a suitcase and a side handle protruding from the top of the box, integral with an amount to support the axis of the casters and to provide rigidity to the modular structure.
  • the box is made of rigid plastic obtained by molding and resistant to shocks.
  • the reference sign 10 generally indicates a box and more particularly a modular toolbox 10 hook and quick release for the eventual recomposition according to the requirements depending on the content.
  • closure element 13 serving as a showcase at the time of purchase; this system, of tamper-proof type, is made with special hooks that prevent the opening of each locker during the exhibition in the stores.
  • the system can only be opened by forcing and destroying said closure member 13.
  • the box 10 comprises at least one rack comprising a frame 11 for the sliding housing of its drawer 12 that can be surmounted by said closure element 13.
  • the frame 11 has a base frame 14 of quadrangular shape consisting of a long cross at the front 15 and a long cross member 16 opposite, and connected to the previous by two short side rails 17.
  • Each short lateral cross member 16 has a panel 18, pointing in a direction substantially perpendicular to the frame 14 and having a recess 19 on its surface 20 facing outwards.
  • the long crosspieces 15 and 16 can be connected at their central portion by a reticular framework 21.
  • the front cross member 15 may also have, in its central part facing the outside of the frame 11, a projecting rib 22 to make the whole more robust.
  • Each end 18 has a sector 23 of a lower height than the corresponding panel 18 and adapted to create in the inner part of the frame 11 a slot or a notch 27.
  • Each crossmember 16, 17 has posts 25 substantially perpendicular to the base frame 14, each having its projecting end provided with a stop 26 facing outwardly of the frame 11.
  • the uprights 25 are located at the tops of the base frame 14 and along the rear cross member 16 to ensure uniform distribution.
  • each panel 18 close to each top of the frame 14 and disposed below a corresponding stopper 26, has a notch 27 closed by a projecting tongue 28 in place which can be spread towards the outside of the frame 11.
  • the free end of the tongue 28 has a protrusion 29, turned towards the outside of the frame 11, and is oriented towards its short lateral cross-member 17.
  • the slots 27 and the respective tabs 28 are also present on the side of the rear crossmember 16 (which is not shown in the figures) always at the uprights 25 and stops 26.
  • the frame 11 of a given rack can be hooked and attached to a frame 11 identical to another rack placed below pushing it until each stop 26 corresponds to its respective notch 27.
  • the stopper 26 interpenetrates the respective notch 27 from the inside of the frame 11 by spreading the tongue 28 outwardly.
  • the drawer 12 has a quadrangular box configuration, corresponding to the plane of the base frame 14 of the frame 11, accessible from the top.
  • the long front wall 30 has a pocket 31 for accommodating a bowl 32 that can be inserted into it and that serves as a handle for pulling the drawer 12 into position. opening when mounted on the frame 11 of the rack.
  • Each short side wall 33 is provided with an upper stick 34 protruding outwards, serving to be housed in the respective slot 24 so that the nipples 23 can support the drawer 12 and to allow the scrolling in position opening or closing.
  • the upper strip 34 also relates to the long rear wall 35 of the drawer 12 so as to form a limit stop being in the maximum open position of the drawer against the pins 42 provided on the frame 11 of the rack.
  • the front wall 30 also has strands end 36 intended to ensure the end of travel in the closed position of the slide 12 abutting against the nipples 23.
  • the base surface 37 of the drawer 12 has a rigidity and resistance capable of supporting the weight of the objects possibly present in the drawer 12.
  • the closure element or cover 13 has a quadrangular frame 38 whose periphery has the same configuration as the frame 11; this frame 38 is hollow, so as to be interpenetrated, in place, by the stops 26 of the uprights 25 projecting from the frame 11.
