Portable Tool Box Mold
Portable Tool Box Mold - Yige Molds Professional Manufacturing Solution
I. Product Overview
Portable tool box molds are professional mold equipment used for manufacturing various types of portable tool boxes, utilizing blow molding or injection molding processes, featuring impact resistance, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance. The products are widely used in automotive repair, home DIY, industrial maintenance, outdoor operations, and other scenarios, serving as important auxiliary equipment for tool storage and transportation.
II. Core Design Points
1. Structural Design Optimization
-
Layered Partition Design: Internal space adopts a layered structure, dividing the box into upper and lower layers or multiple layers through partitions for orderly storage of various tools, avoiding tool disarray and loss
-
Portable Design: Equipped with a carrying handle or shoulder strap for easy vehicle transportation and mobile use
-
Opening and Closing Structure: The lid uses hinge connections or buckle fastenings, with some products featuring transparent plastic lids for easy internal tool viewing
2. Material Selection
-
Shell Material: Uses high-quality plastic, formed through blow molding or injection molding processes, featuring high strength and toughness, resistant to deformation and cracking during complex road conditions or daily use
-
Waterproof Treatment: Both the box body and lid are coated with waterproof paint, effectively blocking external impacts, mud, and water erosion, protecting tools from damage
-
Transparent Material: Some lids use transparent plastic material, allowing users to quickly identify internal tools
3. Functional Configuration
-
Shock Absorption System: The inner sidewalls of the box install multiple springs and top plates, achieving shock absorption effects through the coordination of anti-vibration and buffer mechanisms, protecting the lid and internal tools
-
Locking Structure: Equipped with primary and secondary buckles, ensuring the door does not accidentally open when fully closed, preventing tool loss
-
Wheel Design: Some products feature wheels and slide rail systems for easy movement and transportation
