  • the present invention relates to a foldable bookcase which can be easily assembled and folded into a compact size.
  • a conventional foldable bookcase 80 includes a front frame 81, a rear board 83, a foldable top board 85 and a foldable bottom board 86 both are connected between the front frame 81 and the rear board 83, two sidewalls 82 and two doors 84.
  • Each of the top board 85 and the bottom board 86 is composed of two parts 87 which are pivotably connected to each other by pivots 871 and can be folded along the connection side located at a center of the top board 85 and the bottom board 86.
  • the other side opposite to the connection side of each of the top board 85 and the bottom board 86 are pivotably connected to the front frame 81 and the rear board 83 by connection pieces 872.
  • the two ends of each of the parts 87 include L-shaped engaging plates 88 which are connected to holes 821 of the sidewalls 82. Therefore, the bookcase 80 can be folded into a compact size by folding the top board 85 and the bottom board 86.
  • the folding line i.e. the connection side is exposed and can be seen from outside of the bookcase 80 and the engaging plates 88 need extra machining processes to be made on the parts 27 of the top board 85 and the bottom board 86.
  • the engaging plates 88 protrude from the parts 27 and exposed so that the bookcase 80 cannot meet requirements of aesthetic purposes.
  • the present invention intends to provide a foldable bookcase wherein the top board, the bottom board and the two sidewalls can be folded relative to the front frame. Besides, the bookcase of the present invention has no folding lines and engaging plats can be seen from outside of the bookcase.
  • the present invention relates to a foldable bookcase that comprises a frame including a top side, a bottom side and two vertical sides connected between the top side and the bottom side.
  • a top board has a first edge plate bent from a front side and two ends of the top board and a first connection portion is bent from a rear side of the top board.
  • the front side of the top board is pivotably connected to the top side of the frame by first pivotable members.
  • a bottom board has a second edge plate bent from a front side and two ends of the bottom board, and a second connection portion is bent from a rear side of the bottom board.
  • the front side of the bottom board is pivotably connected to the bottom side of the frame by second pivotable members.
  • Two sidewalls each have a bent plate extending from a top side, a front side and a bottom side thereof.
  • the two respective front sides of the two sidewalls are pivotably connected to the two vertical sides of the frame by third pivotable members.
  • An L-shaped bent edge is defined in a rear side of each of the sidewalls.
  • a rear board has an inward bent L-shaped connection portion on a top side thereof and an insertion extends from a bottom side and two vertical sides of the rear board.
  • the L-shaped connection portion of the rear board is connected to the a first connection portion of the top board and the insertion on the bottom side and the two vertical sides of the rear board are respectively connected to the bottom side of the frame and the two L-shaped grooves of the two sidewalls.
  • the foldable bookcase of the present invention comprises a rectangular front frame 10 including four sides 11 which are a top side, a bottom side and two vertical sides connected between the top side and the bottom side.
  • a top board 20 has a first edge plate 21 bent from a front side and two ends of the top board 20 and a first connection portion 23 is bent from a rear side of the top board 20.
  • the front side of the top board 20 is pivotably connected to the top side of the frame 10 by three first pivotable members 60 and pins.
  • At least one boss 22 extends from the first edge plate 21 on each of the two ends of the top board 20 and a first through hole 24 is defined through the first connection portion 23.
  • a bottom board 30 has a second edge plate 31 bent from a front side and two ends of the bottom board 30 and a second connection portion 32 is bent from a rear side of the bottom board 30.
  • the front side of the bottom board 30 is pivotably connected to the bottom side of the frame 10 by three second pivotable members 60' and pins.
  • Two sidewalls 40 each have a bent plate 41 extending from a top side, a front side and a bottom side thereof.
  • the two respective front sides of the two sidewalls 40 are pivotably connected to the two vertical sides of the frame 10 by two third pivotable members 600 and pins.
  • An L-shaped bent edge 44 is defined in a rear side of each of the sidewalls 40 and includes a groove 43 .
  • the bent plate 41 on the top side of each of the sidewalls 40 includes a hole 42 so that the bosses 22 on the top board 20 are engaged with the holes 42 to connect the top board 20 to the two sidewalls 40 as shown in Figs. 1-1 and 7.
  • a rear board 50 has an inward bent L-shaped connection portion 51 on a top side thereof and an insertion 53 extends from a bottom side and two vertical sides of the rear board 50.
  • the L-shaped connection portion 51 of the rear board 50 includes a second through hole 52 and the L-shaped connection portion 51 is connected to the a first connection portion 23 of the top board 20 by extending a bolt through the first and second through holes 24, 52.
  • the insertion 53 on the bottom side and the two vertical sides of the rear board 50 are respectively connected to the bottom side of the frame 10 and the two grooves 43 of the two sidewalls 40 as shown in Figs. 6 and 6-1.
  • Two stops 54 extend from an inside of the rear board 50 so as to stop two respective distal ends of the L-shaped bent edge 44 of the sidewalls 40 as shown in Figs. 6 and 6-1.
  • the bookcase of the present invention may be equipped with two sliding doors 70 which are movably engaged with rails connected to the front frame 10.
  • the bookcase can be easily assembled and the two sidewalls 40 are quickly positioned relative to the top board 20 by the bosses 22 and the holes 42.
  • the top board 20, the bottom board 30 and the two sidewalls 40 are able to be pivoted relative to the frame 10 so as to become a thin combination which is benefit for storage and transportation.
