Versatile Storage Bin Structure

摘要

A versatile storage bin structure includes a storage bin body. A receiving space, an upper opening coverable with an upper lid, and a lateral opening coverable with a right lateral lid are disposed at the storage bin body. A long groove is disposed beneath the lateral opening and communicates with a bottom space of the storage bin body. The bottom space has therein two rail grooves. Two tenons are disposed at two ends of the bottom edge of the right lateral lid, respectively, and inserted into the space defined by the rail grooves and the long groove. The right lateral lid can be pushed into the long groove for concealment. The first and second fasteners are disposed at the right lateral lid and the left lateral face, respectively, to fasten the upper lid. A frame-like rib is disposed on the upper lid to stack and elevate the storage bins.

1. A versatile storage bin structure, comprising:
a storage bin body having a bottom face, a front lateral face, a rear lateral face, and a left lateral face, wherein the bottom face, the front lateral face, the rear lateral face, and the left lateral face together define and enclose a receiving space having an upper opening, and a periphery of the bottom face extends downward to form a flange running along the periphery fully and defining a bottom space opening downward, the storage bin body being characterized by a right lateral lid, wherein the storage bin body is provided rightward with a lateral opening coverable precisely by the right lateral lid, wherein a long groove is disposed at a right portion of the flange of the storage bin body, communicates with the bottom space, and extends in a direction of the bottom space 161 to form two rail grooves disposed on the bottom face of the storage bin body, wherein a distance between the two rail grooves is slightly larger than a length of the long groove, wherein two tenons are disposed protrudingly at two ends of a bottom edge of the right lateral lid, respectively, wherein a width of the right lateral lid equals a length of the long groove, wherein the two tenons are inserted and confined to a space defined and enclosed by the two rail grooves in the long groove, respectively, wherein, with the two tenons each functioning as an axis, the right lateral lid by which the lateral opening is coverable can be rotated about the two tenons so as to be opened or shut, wherein, when opened to lie horizontally, the right lateral lid can be pushed to slide the two tenons relative to the two rail grooves, respectively, such that the right lateral lid retreats into the bottom space of the storage bin body, wherein a raised portion wider than the long groove is disposed at a top portion of the right lateral lid and adapted to restrict a limit of retreat of the right lateral lid, wherein a projecting edge portion is disposed at an upper edge of the lateral opening of the storage bin body, and the right lateral lid can cover the lateral opening fully and allows the raised portion to come close to the projecting edge portion, wherein a male engaging element is disposed on the raised portion, and a female engaging slot corresponding in position to the male engaging element is disposed on the projecting edge portion, wherein, when the lateral opening is covered with the right lateral lid, the male engaging element is engaged with and thus fastened to the female engaging slot.
