Foldable Case
Abstract
A foldable case includes a rear board, two side boards pivotally mounted on the rear board respectively, a front board removably mounted between the two side boards, a top cover removably mounted on the rear board and abutting the front board, and a bottom board placed on the rear board and removably mounted between the rear board, the two side boards and the front board. Thus, when the foldable case is folded, the front board, the two side boards, the bottom board, the rear board and the top cover laminate each other so that the foldable case is folded completely to have the minimum volume to facilitate packaging, transportation and storage of the foldable case.
