Abstract
A height-adjustable container is configured such that an upper body and a lower body thereof are rotated from side to side in a zigzag form while coming into close contact with each other, so that the height of the container can be easily adjusted. The present invention enables the height of a container to be adjusted, whereby it is possible to make better use of a space of a refrigerator, a cabinet, or the like, in which the container is stored.
Claims19
A height-adjustable container comprising:
- a first body including a height adjustment part that is provided with a plurality of guide grooves and a plurality of locking grooves, the guide grooves symmetrically and inclinedly arranged on an outside or an inside of the first body relative a vertical direction, the locking grooves integrally and circumferentially extending outward from corners of the guide grooves and being alternately arranged on opposite sides of the guide grooves;
- and
- a second body coupled to the outside or the inside of the first body, and provided with a guide protrusion guided along the guide grooves, wherein
- when a height between the first body and the second body is adjusted, the guide protrusion of the second body is alternately moved from side to side along the plurality of locking grooves, wherein
- the guide grooves and the locking grooves are connected to each other at obtuse angles.
