CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application claims the benefit of priority from Chinese Patent Application No. 202011086730.X, filed on Oct. 12, 2020. The content of the aforementioned application, including any intervening amendments thereto, is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present application relates to the transportation technology, and more particularly to a foldable tool cart.

BACKGROUND

A tool cart is a movable tool cabinet suitable for safe and appropriate transportation of tools and accessories on the worksite. The tool cart generally includes handlebars, wheels and a structure for loading items, and it brings a lot of convenience for production. However, most of the tool carts have a fixed frame structure, and as a result it is not convenient to store them after use. In addition, a large space is required for occupation.

SUMMARY

Given the above, the present application provides a foldable tool cart, which can be conveniently stored and requires only a small occupation space.

The invention provides a foldable tool cart, comprising:

a first bearing assembly;

a second bearing assembly;

a first support assembly; and

a second support assembly;

wherein the first support assembly and the second support assembly are oppositely arranged and movable toward or away from each other;

the first bearing assembly and the second bearing assembly are rotatably connected and are both arranged between the first support assembly and the second support assembly; a side of the first bearing assembly away from the second bearing assembly is connected to the first support assembly; the first bearing assembly is slidable and rotatable with respect to the first support assembly; a side of the second bearing assembly away from the first bearing assembly is connected to the second support assembly; and the second bearing assembly is slidable and rotatable with respect to the second support assembly;

when the first support assembly and the second support assembly are driven to be close to each other, the first bearing assembly and the second bearing assembly are driven to move upward, respectively with respect to the first support assembly and the second support assembly, so that the first bearing assembly and the second bearing assembly are rotatable with respect to each other and close to each other, thereby folding the first bearing assembly and the second bearing assembly together; and

when the first support assembly and the second support assembly are driven to move away from each other, the first bearing assembly and the second bearing assembly are driven to move downward, respectively with respect to the first support assembly and the second support assembly, so that the first bearing assembly and the second bearing assembly are rotatable with respect to each other and move away from each other, thereby unfolding the first bearing assembly and the second bearing assembly together.

In an embodiment, the foldable tool cart further comprises at least one of a first connector and a second connector;

wherein an end of the first connector is rotatably connected to the first bearing assembly; and the other end of the first connector is slidably connected to the first support assembly, thereby enabling the first bearing assembly to slide and rotate with respect to the first support assembly; and

an end of the second connector is rotatably connected to the second bearing assembly; and the other end of the second connector is slidably connected to the second support assembly, thereby enabling the second bearing assembly to slide and rotate with respect to the second support assembly.

In an embodiment, the first connector comprises a first body and a second body connected to each other; the first body allows the first support assembly to pass through it and is slidable with respect to the first support assembly; and a side of the second body away from the first body is rotatably connected to the first bearing assembly.

In an embodiment, the foldable tool cart further comprises a limit member arranged on the first support assembly;

wherein the limit member abuts against the first bearing assembly to limit a rotation angle of the first bearing assembly with respect to the second bearing assembly.

In an embodiment, the foldable tool cart further comprises a connecting assembly;

wherein an end of the connecting assembly is rotatably connected to the first bearing assembly; and the other end of the connecting assembly is rotatably connected to the second bearing assembly, so that the first bearing assembly is rotatably connected to the second bearing assembly.

In an embodiment, the connecting assembly comprises a first rotating part and a second rotating part connected to each other; a side of the first rotating part away from the second rotating part is rotatably connected to the first bearing assembly; and a side of the second rotating part away from the first rotating part is rotatably connected to the second bearing assembly, so that the first bearing assembly is rotatably connected to the second bearing assembly.

In an embodiment, the first bearing assembly comprises a first connecting rod and a second connecting rod arranged oppositely; an end of the first connecting rod is slidably and rotatably connected to the first support assembly; and

the other end of the first connecting rod is rotatably connected to the second bearing assembly; an end of the second connecting rod is slidably and rotatably connected to the first support assembly; and the other end of the second connecting rod is rotatably connected to an end of the second bearing assembly away from the first connecting rod.

In an embodiment, the first bearing assembly further comprises a first rotating shaft arranged between the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod; and the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod are rotatably connected to the second bearing assembly by the first rotating shaft.

In an embodiment, the foldable tool cart further comprises a movable component; wherein the movable component is arranged at a bottom of the first support assembly and/or at a bottom of the second support assembly, and configured to drive the movement of the first support assembly and/or the second support assembly.

In an embodiment, the foldable tool cart further comprises a handlebar by means of which an external force is applied to drive the first support assembly and/or the second support assembly, wherein the handlebar is arranged on the first support assembly and/or the second support assembly.

Compared to the prior art, the present application has the following beneficial effects.

The application disclosures a foldable tool cart, in which the first support assembly and the second support assembly are arranged oppositely and the first bearing assembly and the second bearing assembly are both arranged between the first support assembly and the second support assembly. When the first support assembly and the second support assembly are driven to be close to each other, the first bearing assembly and the second bearing assembly are driven to move upward, respectively with respect to the first support assembly and the second support assembly, so that the first bearing assembly and the second bearing assembly are rotatable with respect to each other and close to each other, thereby folding the first bearing assembly and the second bearing assembly together. When the first support assembly and the second support assembly are driven to move away from each other, the first bearing assembly and the second bearing assembly are driven to move downward, respectively with respect to the first support assembly and the second support assembly, so that the first bearing assembly and the second bearing assembly are rotatable with respect to each other and move away from each other, thereby unfolding the first bearing assembly and the second bearing assembly together. Compared to the existing tool cart with a fixed frame structure, the foldable tool cart of the present application can be folded when it is not in use, so it is convenient to store it and only a small occupation space is needed.
