Detailed Implementation

[0017] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of the present invention, preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below in conjunction with specific examples. However, it should be understood that the accompanying drawings are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the present patent. For better illustration of this embodiment, some components in the drawings may be omitted, enlarged, or reduced, and do not represent the actual dimensions of the product. It is understandable that some well-known structures and their descriptions may be omitted in the drawings for those skilled in the art. The positional relationships described in the drawings are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the present patent.

[0018] Unless otherwise specified, the technical features of the four-way logistics vehicle and other components described in this invention are obtained from conventional commercial channels or manufactured by conventional methods. Their specific structure, working principle, and possible control methods and spatial arrangement methods can adopt conventional choices in the field and should not be regarded as the innovation of this invention. This is understandable to those skilled in the art, and this patent will not elaborate further.

[0019] Example 1: like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the present invention provides a storage rack, including a left rack group and a right rack group. Both the left rack group and the right rack group include multiple track beams 1 arranged sequentially from top to bottom. Each track beam 1 is connected to a first horizontal rail 2, a second horizontal rail 3, a third horizontal rail 4, and a fourth horizontal rail 5 in sequence on its outer side. The first horizontal rail 2 is fixedly provided with a first column 6 on both sides. The second horizontal rail 3 and the third horizontal rail 4 are fixedly connected to a second column 7 on both sides. The fourth horizontal rail 5 is fixedly provided with a third column 8 on both sides. Multiple connecting rails 9 are connected between each track beam 1 of the left rack group and each track beam 1 of the corresponding right rack group. A four-way logistics vehicle 10 is provided on the track beam 1, and a pallet 11 is provided on the four-way logistics vehicle 10.

[0020] Example 2: like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the present invention provides a storage rack, including a left rack group and a right rack group. Both the left rack group and the right rack group include multiple track beams 1 arranged sequentially from top to bottom. Each track beam 1 is connected to a first horizontal rail 2, a second horizontal rail 3, a third horizontal rail 4, and a fourth horizontal rail 5 in sequence on its outer side. The first horizontal rail 2 is fixedly provided with a first column 6 on both sides. The second horizontal rail 3 and the third horizontal rail 4 are fixedly connected to a second column 7 on both sides. The fourth horizontal rail 5 is fixedly provided with a third column 8 on both sides. Multiple connecting rails 9 are connected between each track beam 1 of the left rack group and each track beam 1 of the corresponding right rack group. A four-way logistics vehicle 10 is provided on the track beam 1, and a pallet 11 is provided on the four-way logistics vehicle 10.

[0021] It consists of track beam 1, multiple horizontal rails, multiple uprights, and connecting rails 9. The track beam 1 and multiple horizontal rails are made of the same profile, reducing the need for traditional components such as sub-beams and track supports. This significantly reduces the number of parts in the entire shelving unit, speeds up the assembly time, and reduces inventory pressure.

[0022] The track beam 1, the first horizontal rail 2, the second horizontal rail 3, the third horizontal rail 4, the fourth horizontal rail 5 and the connecting rail 9 are all equipped with guide rails 16 for the movement of the four-way logistics vehicle 10.

[0023] The guide rail 16, made using cold bending forming technology, can help correct the running path of the four-phase vehicle. The overlapping method prevents sharp edges from forming at the bends, protecting the four-phase vehicle and installation personnel.

[0024] Furthermore, in another embodiment, the track beam 1, the first horizontal rail 2, the second horizontal rail 3, the third horizontal rail 4 and the fourth horizontal rail 5 all include a P-shaped structure 12, the bottom of the P-shaped structure 12 is provided with a horizontal plate 13, and the horizontal plate 13 is provided with a first flange 14.

[0025] The P-shaped structure exhibits a superior moment of inertia under longitudinal loads compared to the traditional C-shaped beam. Both the track beam 1 and the cross rails utilize a single profile, reducing the number of components. The cavity in the P-shaped structure both increases the beam's moment of inertia and serves as a connection point between beams.

[0026] Furthermore, in another embodiment, the P-shaped structure 12 is provided with a plurality of protrusions 15.

[0027] The convex 15 design allows for better preload when locking the bolts.

[0028] Furthermore, in another embodiment, the connecting rail 9 has an I-shaped structure.

[0029] The connecting rail 9 is used to connect the left and right shelf units. The I-beam design ensures the strength of the connecting rail 9 and facilitates its installation.

[0030] Furthermore, in another embodiment, the connecting rail 9 is provided with a connecting plate 17, the connecting plate 17 is provided with a first screw hole 18, and the track beam 1 is provided with a second screw hole corresponding to the first screw hole 18.

[0031] The first screw hole 18 on the connecting plate 17 and the second screw hole on the track beam 1 are used to eliminate the installation gap between the connecting rail 9 and the track beam 1.

[0032] Furthermore, in another embodiment, a first support structure 19 is provided between the two first columns 6, between the two second columns 7, and between the two third columns 8.

[0033] The first support structure 19 can improve the stability between the two first columns 6, the two second columns 7, and the two third columns 8.

[0034] Furthermore, in another embodiment, three second support structures 20 are provided at equal intervals from top to bottom between the first column 6 and the second column 7, and three second support structures 20 are provided at equal intervals from top to bottom between the second column 7 and the third column 8.

[0035] The second support structure 20 can improve the stability between the first column 6 and the second column 7, and also improve the stability between the second column 7 and the third column 8.

[0036] Furthermore, in another embodiment, both the first support structure 19 and the second support structure 20 include a first diagonal bar and a second diagonal bar arranged in a cross configuration, with a vertical bar connected to the middle of the first diagonal bar and the second diagonal bar.

[0037] This cross-bracing structure not only improves the strength and stability of the support, but also effectively distributes the weight of the goods and reduces local pressure; the design of the vertical bars further enhances the overall integrity of the support structure, improving the load-bearing capacity and service life of the rack.
