[0043] The following is combined with Figure 1-10 This application is described in further detail.

[0044] The embodiment of the present application discloses a storage rack. Figure 1 and Figure 2A storage rack includes two fixed support rods 1 and a fixed plate 2 fixedly installed between the two fixed support rods 1, and multiple fixed plates 2 are arranged at intervals along the height direction of the fixed support rods 1. A reinforcement rod is connected between the two fixed support rods 1, and the reinforcement rods are respectively attached to the upper surface and the lower surface of the fixed plate 2. The length direction of the fixed plate 2 and the height direction of the fixed support rods 1 are perpendicular to each other, and support layers 3 for supporting items are provided on opposite sides of the length direction of the fixed plate 2. The support layer 3 includes a plurality of movable plates 31 spliced in sequence, and the arrangement direction of the plurality of movable plates 31 is the same as the length direction of the fixed plate 2. A hinge 32 is connected between the lower surfaces of two adjacent movable plates 31, and the movable plate 31 closest to the fixed plate 2 is also connected to the fixed plate 2 by the hinge 32. Therefore, the two adjacent movable plates 31 are rotationally connected, and the movable plate 31 and the fixed plate 2 are also rotationally connected.

[0045] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The storage rack also includes a movable support rod 4 for supporting the support layer 3. The height of the movable support rod 4 is the same as that of the fixed support rod 1. Two movable support rods 4 are provided with the fixed plate 2 as the center of symmetry, and the support layer 3 is located between the two movable support rods 4 on the same side. The movable support rod 4 slides on the support layer 3, and the sliding direction of the movable support rod 4 is the same as the length direction of the support layer 3. Two chute grooves 311 are provided on the movable plate 31. The length direction of the chute grooves 311 is the same as the distribution direction of the movable plate 31, and the ends of the chute grooves 311 in the length direction pass through the movable plate 31. The movable rod 62 is connected to a connecting rod 41. The chute 311 has an opening for the connecting rod 41 to be inserted into the chute 311. The connecting rod 41 is slidably installed in the chute 311. The openings of the two chute grooves 311 on the movable plate 31 are completely opposite, and the two connecting rods 41 are installed at different heights on the movable plate 31.

[0046] Reference Figure 5 Referring to the support rod 5 connected between the two movable support rods 4 supporting the same support layer 3, the lower surface of the movable plate 31 abuts against the support rod 5, and the support rod 5 enables the two movable support rods 4 to slide synchronously on the support layer 3. In order to enable the support rods 5 to slide smoothly, a clearance groove 51 for the hinge 32 to pass through is opened on the support rod 5.

[0047] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7 The fixed plate 2 is provided with a mounting groove 21 for the connecting rod 41 to slide into. The fixed plate 2 is also provided with two mounting grooves 21, one above the other, with the openings for the connecting rod 41 to be inserted facing opposite directions. When the connecting rod 41 slides into the mounting groove 21, the entire support layer 3 is no longer supported, and the multiple movable plates 31 of one support layer 3 all rotate downward, reducing the volume of the shelf.

[0048] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 8The connecting rod 41 is connected to a telescopic rod 6, one end of which is fixedly connected to the fixed plate 2. The telescopic rod 6 is located within the slide groove 311 and the mounting groove 21. The telescopic rod 6 includes a fixed rod 61 and a plurality of movable rods 62. The upper surface of the fixed rod 61 is fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the mounting groove 21. The plurality of movable rods 62 are sequentially connected, with adjacent movable rods 62 in sliding contact. The upper surface of the movable rod 62 contacts the inner wall of the slide groove 311. The sidewalls of the movable rods 62 are provided with guide grooves 621 for sliding of another movable rod 62. The side of the movable rod 62 facing away from the guide groove 621 is fixedly connected to a slider 622. The slider 622 is slidably mounted within the guide groove 621. Interceptors are mounted at both ends of the guide groove 621 in the longitudinal direction, restricting the slider 622 to slide only within the guide groove 621. The slider 622 has a T-shaped or dovetail cross-section, which allows the slider 622 to move only along the longitudinal direction of the guide groove 621.

[0049] The length direction of the movable rod 62 is the same as the length direction of the movable plate 31, and the length of the movable rod 62 is the same as the length of the movable plate 31. If only one or two movable plates 31 of a support layer 3 rotate downward, one or two movable rods 62 will also be retracted accordingly, so that the telescopic rod 6 can provide stable support for the support layer 3.

[0050] Since there are support layers 3 on opposite sides of the fixed plate 2, and both support layers 3 have chute grooves 311 at different heights, the upper chute grooves 311 of the two support layers 3 on the same horizontal plane are on the same horizontal plane, and the chute grooves 311 of the two support layers 3 are interconnected through one of the mounting grooves 21. The lower chute grooves 311 of the two support layers 3 on the same horizontal plane are also on the same horizontal plane, and the chute grooves 311 of the two support layers 3 are also interconnected through the other mounting groove 21.

[0051] Reference Figure 8 The two telescopic rods 6 located in the same horizontal plane within the slide slot 311 share a fixed rod 61. The movable rods 62 of the two telescopic rods 6 slide against the fixed rod 61 on both sides. Guide grooves 621 are defined on opposite sides of the fixed rod 61, and intercepting blocks are mounted on the guide grooves 621. The movable rod 62 closest to the fixed rod 61 slides on the fixed rod 61 via sliders 622.

[0052] Reference Figure 9 The two telescopic rods 6 on the same supporting layer 3 are staggered with each other. When the four telescopic rods 6 on the same fixed plate 2 all play a supporting role, the four telescopic rods 6 are distributed in an X shape, so that the four telescopic rods 6 can play a stable supporting role for the two supporting layers 3 on one fixed plate 2.

[0053] Reference Figure 7 and Figure 10A limiting rod 7 is connected between the two movable support rods 4 on the same support layer 3. The lower surface of the limiting rod 7 is in contact with the upper surface of the movable plate 31. A cleaning portion 71 is provided on the side of the limiting rod 7 that contacts the movable plate 31. As the two movable support rods 4 slide along the support layer 3, the limiting rod 7 cleans the surface of the support layer 3. The limiting rod 7 is detachably mounted on the movable support rod 4. The movable support rod 4 has a slot for the limiting rod 7 to pass through, allowing the cleaning portion 71 on the limiting rod 7 to be removed for cleaning after wiping the support layer 3.

[0054] Reference Figure 9 and Figure 10 In order to enable the limiting rod 7 to continuously reciprocate on the support layer 3 and achieve a good cleaning effect on the support layer 3, the support layer 3 needs to remain horizontal. In order for the movable plate 31 to remain horizontal when the movable support rod 4 leaves the movable plate 31, the telescopic rod 6 needs to move along with the movement of the connecting rod 41. The connecting rod 41 is provided with a groove 42 for multiple movable rods 62 to pass through. The movable rod 62 farthest from the fixed rod 61 is rotatably mounted on a limiting block 623. The movable rod 62 is provided with a limiting groove 624 for accommodating the limiting block 623. The limiting block 623 can be rotatably mounted in the limiting groove 624 and can also be rotated out of the limiting groove 624. When the limiting block 623 is located outside the limiting groove 624, it can form an abutment relationship with the side of the connecting rod 41 closest to the fixed rod 61, so that when the connecting rod 41 moves, the connecting rod 41 can drive the movable rod 62 to slide, thereby gradually shortening the telescopic rod 6. When the limit block 623 is located in the limit groove 624, the connecting rod 41 and the telescopic rod 6 form a sliding connection relationship. When the connecting rod 41 slides in the slide groove 311, the telescopic rod 6 remains in an extended state to support the support layer 3, so that the limit rod 7 can wipe the surface of the support layer 3 back and forth, thereby fully cleaning the support layer 3.

[0055] The implementation principle of a storage rack in the embodiment of the present application is as follows:

[0056] The storage rack is symmetrically provided with two supporting layers 3 with the fixed plate 2. If the supporting layer 3 on one side of the fixed plate 2 is full of items and there is nothing to put on the supporting layer 3 on the other side of the fixed plate 2, the movable support rod 4 can be slid to make the movable support rod 4 close to the fixed support rod 1, and the supporting layer 3 rotates downward and is no longer in a horizontal state of supporting items, thereby reducing the volume of the entire storage rack by nearly half. If the space for placing the storage rack is smaller than the maximum volume of the storage rack, the volume of the storage rack can also be changed to adapt to the size of the space. The supporting layers 3 on both sides of the fixed plate 2 can be adjusted, and the adjustment size can also be determined according to the size of the space. Therefore, the storage rack can be deformed into various volumes, so that the storage rack can adapt to more needs.

[0057] The embodiment of the present application also discloses a production process for a storage rack.

[0058] A production process for a storage rack is used to produce the above storage rack, comprising the following specific steps:

[0059] Prepare the materials by cutting and planing to form the fixed support rod 1, the fixed plate 2, the movable plate 31, the movable support rod 4, the connecting rod 41 and the telescopic rod 6;

[0060] First, install the fixing plate 2 between the two fixing rods 1, and the fixing rods 61 are spaced apart along the height direction of the fixing rods 1;

[0061] Multiple movable panels 31 are sequentially assembled together through hinges 32 to form a support layer 3, and the first or last movable panel 31 is rotated and mounted on the fixed panel 2;

[0062] One end of the telescopic rod 6 is fixedly mounted on the fixed plate 2, and the other end of the telescopic rod 6 is mounted on the connecting rod 41;

[0063] The connecting rod 41 is installed on the movable support rod 4.

[0064] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
