Definition and Purpose

The storage box mounting bracket is a device used to fix and support storage boxes, designed to provide a stable installation position for storage boxes, allowing them to be properly placed on various carriers such as vehicles, furniture, cabinets, etc., facilitating the storage of various items and enhancing the rationality and convenience of space utilization.

Structural Composition

Bracket Body:

Typically made of metal (such as steel or aluminum alloy) or high-strength plastic. Metal brackets have higher strength and can withstand the weight of heavier storage boxes and their contents, commonly used in scenarios like vehicle storage boxes and large industrial storage equipment; plastic brackets are relatively lightweight and cost-effective, widely used in environments like home cabinets where load-bearing requirements are not high.

They come in various shapes, commonly including square frame structures, L-shaped structures, U-shaped structures, etc., with the specific shape depending on the shape of the storage box and the characteristics of the installation carrier. For example, when installing a small storage box in a vehicle's center console, an L-shaped bracket may be used to fit snugly into the internal space of the console and secure one side of the storage box.

Connection Components:

Includes various forms such as bolts, nuts, clips, hooks, etc. The bolt and nut connection method is relatively strong and reliable, often used in situations requiring long-term stable installation with significant load-bearing capacity, such as brackets for storage boxes installed in workshop tool cabinets; clip connections are convenient and quick, allowing installation and disassembly through pressing or pulling actions, commonly used for installing simple plastic storage boxes in home environments; hooks are suitable for hanging storage boxes on a carrier, such as using hook-type connection components to hang small fabric storage boxes in a wardrobe.

The size and specifications of these connection components are determined based on the specific design of the bracket body and storage box to ensure precise matching for a stable connection.

Adjustment Device (some have):

Some more complex or multifunctional storage box mounting brackets may be equipped with adjustment devices, such as height-adjustable screws or rotatable axes. Height-adjustable screws can flexibly change the installation height of the storage box according to the height requirements of items inside it, making it easier to access items; rotatable axes allow the storage box to change angles within a certain range, better adapting to different usage scenarios and viewing angle needs.

The design of adjustment devices considers ease of operation and stability to ensure that adjusting does not affect the firmness of the connection between the entire bracket and the storage box.

Classification Methods

Classified by Application Scenario:

Vehicle Storage Box Mounting Bracket: Specifically designed for use inside vehicles to install various types of storage boxes such as junk boxes, tissue boxes, mobile phone holders, etc. These brackets must consider vibrations and bumps during vehicle operation, thus having high requirements for stability and anti-loosening. Additionally, they should match the interior style of the vehicle without affecting overall aesthetics. For example, a glove box bracket installed in front of the passenger seat must ensure that the glove box does not produce noise due to shaking while driving.

Home Storage Box Mounting Bracket: Used in furniture such as wardrobes, cabinets, bookshelves, etc., to secure different types of storage boxes and increase storage functionality. Brackets in home environments pay more attention to coordination with furniture materials and colors as well as ease of installation for users to install and adjust themselves. For instance, installing partitioned plastic storage box brackets in a wardrobe makes it easier to organize clothes, socks, and other small items.

Office Storage Box Mounting Bracket: Used in office desks, filing cabinets, etc., primarily for installing pen holders, document organizers, office supply storage boxes, etc. These brackets typically need to meet the requirements for simplicity and efficiency in office environments for easy access to office supplies while conforming to certain office space layouts and ergonomic principles to improve work efficiency.

Classified by Structural Form:

Fixed Bracket: This type of bracket remains basically fixed in structure and position once installed. It has strong stability and is suitable for situations where precise positioning of the storage box is required without frequent changes. For example, a fixed bracket installed inside a kitchen cabinet for placing utensil storage boxes ensures that utensils can be stored neatly and stably.

Movable Bracket: Features an active structure that can stretch, rotate, fold, etc. A telescopic movable bracket can change its length according to storage needs to expand or reduce storage space; a rotating bracket allows the storage box to rotate at multiple angles for easy access from different directions; a folding bracket saves space when not in use. For instance, some foldable vehicle picnic supply storage box brackets can be folded up after a picnic without taking up too much space inside the vehicle.

Combination Bracket: A complex bracket that combines multiple structural forms together. It can often be flexibly configured based on specific shapes, quantities of storage boxes as well as usage needs. For example, in a large home storage cabinet, a combination bracket can include fixed parts for placing frequently used items' storage boxes while also having movable parts for installing seasonal or less frequently used items' storage boxes for easy adjustment of the storage layout.
