DEVICE FOR STORING ITEMS SUCH AS BOXES Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC B62B3/18 

FIELD: personal demand items.

SUBSTANCE: device (10) comprises a base (12), a plurality of struts (14) attached to the base (12) and a platform (16) defining a surface (18) for supporting at least one box for correspondence. The platform (16) is connected with four columns (14) and movable along them between a first position (20) and a second position (22) (shown by auxiliary lines) below the first position (20) when the first item (e.g., full box (30) ) is supported on the surface (18) platform (16). As the filled boxes (30) stacked on the device (10), the platform (16) moves from the first position (20), until eventually reaches the base (12). When the filled boxes (30) are discharged from the device (10), the platform (16) rises, returning to the first position (20) when there is nothing left on the surface (18).

EFFECT: while the platform is lifted, the space between the platform and the base is expanded and becomes a convenient place to store the empty boxes.
