Abstract
To obtain a foldable storage box in which an open state can be easily held. When a bottom board () in a stored state is transitioned to an open state, a pressing part () formed on the bottom board () presses one projecting part of a V form of a rotating member (). The rotating member () rotates when the rotating member () is pressed, and a rod-form lock member () connected with the rotating member () rotates so as to extend in a horizontal direction. A leading end part of the lock member () is thereby inserted into a recessed pocket part () formed on a second side wall board (B). The lock member () is disposed so as to span between a first side wall board (A) and the second side wall board (B) when the leading end part of the lock member () is inserted into the pocket part. In other words, a lock device () is disposed in a locked state in which an open state of the side wall boards () is locked.
