Foldable storage container

Abstract

The present invention aims to overcome the problem of increased transportation cost arising from the unfoldability of conventional storage boxes for use at construction sites, by disclosing a foldable storage container. The present invention solves the problem by comprising a bottom wall and a top wall, the bottom wall hinged to first side walls and second side walls; both the first side walls and the second side walls are provided in two, and disposed in opposition at two sides of the bottom wall, the first side walls hinged to the top wall, the second side walls each comprising a number of inter-hinged side-wall individual plates, wherein when in a folded configuration, the side-wall individual plates are folded and the first side walls and the second side walls are folded by being pivoted about their edges, where they are hinged to the bottom wall, and stowed between the top wall and the bottom wall. According to this application, when there is need for transportation, the first side walls and the second side walls can be folded toward the bottom wall, thereby converting the overall structure into the folded configuration, where it has a reduced overall size and occupies a smaller space during transportation, resulting in transportation cost savings.
