Detailed Implementation
[0028] To make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0029] Example 1, referring to Figures 1 to 10 This embodiment provides an intelligent illuminated shelf with automatic access sensing for flexible material storage, including: a steel channel 1, a positioning block 2, a first telescopic rod 3, a crossbar 4, a support plate 5, and an indicator light assembly 6. The steel channel 1 is provided with mounting holes 11, and two steel channels 1 are spliced together to form a group. The positioning block 2 is slidably connected to the positioning shaft 21 on both sides, and the positioning shaft 21 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the mounting hole 11. The bottom of the first telescopic rod 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the positioning block 2, and the top of the first telescopic rod 3 abuts against the lower surface of the crossbar 4. The support plate 5 is placed on the crossbar 4.
[0030] In this embodiment, the steel channel 1 is a metal profile with a U-shaped or C-shaped cross-section, used to provide a sliding track for the positioning block 2. The steel channel 1 is the main support frame of the shelf, a metal channel-shaped structure used to support and fix various functional components. It is preferably made of high-quality steel, which has high strength and rigidity. Two steel channels 1 are spliced together as a set, and the two steel channels 1 are connected together with bolts to form the left and right uprights of the shelf. The I-beam structure helps to improve the structural strength. In specific implementation, the steel channel 1 is manufactured by cold bending forming process, and the surface is galvanized or powder coated, which has good rust prevention performance.
[0031] Furthermore, the spacing of the mounting holes 11 is designed according to the height of commonly used materials, typically 50mm or 100mm, allowing users to select a suitable installation position based on the material size. The positioning shaft 21 is used to cooperate with the mounting holes 11 for positioning. After the positioning shaft 21 extends from the mounting holes 11, it locks the position of the positioning block 2, thereby achieving adjustment and locking of the storage layer height.
[0032] The indicator light assembly 6 includes an indicator light 61, a power supply 62, a fixed contact 63, and a movable contact 64. The indicator light 61 is mounted on the steel channel 1. The indicator light 61 and the movable contact 64 are provided in three sets. One end of the power supply 62 is electrically connected to the three sets of indicator lights 61. The three sets of indicator lights 61 are electrically connected to the fixed contact 63 respectively. The other end of the power supply 62 is electrically connected to the three sets of movable contacts 64 respectively.
[0033] In this embodiment, the first telescopic rod 3 is used to bear the weight of the material and convert gravity into a displacement signal. When material is placed on the support plate 5, if the material exceeds a certain weight, the weight of the material is transmitted to the first telescopic rod 3 through the crossbar 4 and compressed. At this time, the movable contact 64 and the fixed contact 63 come into contact, forming a path, and the indicator light 61 lights up. When the material is removed, the first telescopic rod 3 resets.
[0034] Furthermore, the indicator light assembly 6 is an electrical indicator device for displaying the storage status of materials, indicating the storage and retrieval status of materials through light signals. The indicator light 61 preferably uses a light-emitting diode (LED) or other light-emitting element to emit visible light signals; the power supply 62 is a battery or external power source used to power the indicator light 61; the fixed contact 63 is a relatively fixed conductive contact that is electrically connected to the indicator light 61; the movable contact 64 is a movable conductive contact that is electrically connected to the power supply 62 and moves with the movable end 34.
[0035] The active contact 64 further includes a contact piece and a connecting wire; wherein, the contact piece refers to a metal conductive sheet embedded in the surface of the active end 34; the connecting wire refers to an electric wire, one end of which is connected to the contact piece and the other end of which is connected to the power supply 62.
[0036] In practice, indicator light 61 uses a high-brightness LED, with selectable colors of red, green, or yellow to distinguish different storage states or material types. Power supply 62 uses replaceable dry cell batteries or rechargeable lithium batteries, installed in the battery compartment inside the steel trough 1 for easy maintenance. Fixed contact 63 and movable contact 64 are made of copper alloy or silver alloy with good conductivity. The contact or separation of movable contact 64 with fixed contact 63 controls the on / off state of the circuit; when excessive material is placed on support plate 5, movable contact 64 moves downward with movable end 34, contacting fixed contact 63, completing the circuit, and indicator light 61 illuminates; when the material is removed, movable end 34 resets, movable contact 64 separates from fixed contact 63, breaking the circuit, and indicator light 61 turns off. Automatic reminders are provided when too much material is placed, achieving automatic sensing of storage and retrieval status and indicator light 61 prompting function. No sensors, controllers, or other electronic components are required; automatic sensing and prompting are achieved solely through a purely mechanical structure, resulting in a simple structure, low cost, high reliability, and convenient maintenance.
[0037] Example 2, refer to Figures 3 to 10This embodiment is based on the previous embodiment, but differs from the previous embodiment in that...
[0038] Reference Figure 4 The positioning block 2 has a first through hole 22, and a first spring 23 is provided in the first through hole 22. The two ends of the first spring 23 are respectively fixedly connected to the positioning shaft 21. The positioning shaft 21 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the first through hole 22. The inner wall of the first through hole 22 is fixedly connected to the first fixing ring 24.
[0039] In this embodiment, the positioning block 2 is made of engineering plastic or metal, and the first spring 23 is made of stainless steel to ensure long-term reliability. The first fixing ring 24 is integrally formed with the block or fixed by welding. When the positioning block 2 is installed in place, the positioning shaft 21 automatically pops out under the action of the first spring 23 and inserts into the mounting hole 11 to achieve quick locking; when disassembling, the user only needs to press the positioning shaft 21 to retract it, and the positioning block 2 can be removed from the steel groove 1, which is simple and quick to operate. During installation, the first spring 23 is first welded to one of the positioning shafts 21, and then the first spring 23 is inserted into the first through hole 22. The first spring 23 is pulled out from the other end of the first through hole 22. At this time, the first fixing ring 24 will lock the positioning shaft 21 connected to the first spring 23. Then, the other positioning shaft 21 is welded to the first spring 23 to complete the assembly. At this time, the positioning shaft 21 can slide inside the first through hole 22, and the first fixing ring 24 can prevent the positioning shaft 21 from slipping off.
[0040] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 The first telescopic rod 3 includes a fixed end 31, a movable plate 32, a second spring 33, and a movable end 34. The bottom of the fixed end 31 is fixedly connected to the top of the positioning block 2. The movable plate 32 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the fixed end 31. The movable end 34 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the movable plate 32 and passes through the top of the fixed end 31. One end of the second spring 33 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the movable plate 32, and the other end of the second spring 33 is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the fixed end 31. A movable contact 64 is embedded in the surface of the movable end 34. A second fixing ring 35 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixed end 31. The second spring 33 is used to provide support force and elastic restoring force.
[0041] In this embodiment, when material is placed on the support plate 5, if the weight of the material exceeds the first threshold, the material's gravity is transmitted to the movable end 34 through the crossbar 4. The movable end 34 moves downward, the movable plate 32 compresses the second spring 33, and the movable contact 64 moves with the movable end 34. At this time, the movable contact 64 and the fixed contact 63 come into contact, forming a path, and the first indicator light 61 illuminates, indicating that the weight of the material needs to be monitored. If material continues to be placed, if the weight of the material exceeds the second threshold, the material's gravity is transmitted to the movable end 34 through the crossbar 4. The movable end 34 moves downward, the movable plate 32 compresses the second spring 33, and the movable contact 64 moves with the movable end 34. When the movable contact 64 and the fixed contact 63 come into contact, forming a circuit, the second indicator light 61 illuminates, indicating that the placed material is too heavy and needs to be reduced. If material continues to be placed until its weight is transmitted to the movable end 34 through the crossbar 4, the movable end 34 moves downward, the movable plate 32 compresses the second spring 33, and the movable contact 64 moves with the movable end 34. At this time, the movable contact 64 and the fixed contact 63 come into contact, forming a circuit, and the third indicator light 61 illuminates, indicating that the placed material is too heavy and needs to be reduced immediately. At this time, the movable plate 32 rests on the second fixed ring 35, which provides rigid support and prevents the second spring 33 from being damaged. The three sets of indicator lights 61 preferably use different colors for easy differentiation by workers. When the material is removed, the second spring 33 returns to its original position, and the movable end 34 resets. During assembly, the first telescopic rod 3 is installed... Figure 4 The cross-section is cut open, the internal structure is installed, and then it is welded back together.
[0042] Reference Figure 6 The connecting wire between the power supply 62 and the active contact 64 is embedded inside the active end 34.
[0043] In this embodiment, internal wiring prevents the connecting wire from being cut off when the first telescopic rod 3 extends or retracts, while ensuring uninterrupted electrical connection between the movable contact 64 and the power supply 62.
[0044] Reference Figure 6 The inner wall of the fixed end 31 is provided with a receiving groove 311. One end of the second telescopic rod 312 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the receiving groove 311. The other end of the second telescopic rod 312 is fixedly connected to the movable contact 64. The fixed contact 63 faces the movable contact 64. A third spring 313 is sleeved on the second telescopic rod 312. One end of the third spring 313 is fixedly connected to the fixed contact 63. The other end of the third spring 313 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the receiving groove 311.
[0045] In this embodiment, the elastic force of the third spring 313 ensures that the movable contact 64 and the fixed contact 63 are in close contact, ensuring reliable circuit conduction. The second telescopic rod 312 is used to prevent the third spring 313 from becoming scattered.
[0046] Reference Figure 6The inner wall of the receiving groove 311 is fixedly connected to the fixing plate 314, the fixing plate 314 is fixedly connected to one end of the arc plate 315, and the other end of the arc plate 315 is slidably connected to the movable end 34.
[0047] In this embodiment, during installation, a longer arc plate 315 is used. The arc plate 315 is bent by the movable end 34, ensuring close contact between the arc plate 315 and the movable end 34 without obstructing the movement of the movable end 34. When the movable end 34 moves, the arc plate 315 scrapes the surface of the movable contact 64, removing oxide layers and contaminants, ensuring good contact between the fixed contact 63 and the movable contact 64. The arc plate 315 is made of a flexible metal sheet or a plastic sheet.
[0048] Reference Figure 6 A scraper 316 is installed on the fixed contact 63.
[0049] In this embodiment, the scraper 316 uses a rubber block to clean the surface of the movable contact 64, ensuring good contact between the fixed contact 63 and the movable contact 64.
[0050] Reference Figure 8 The crossbar 4 includes an end 41 and a third telescopic rod 42. The two ends of the third telescopic rod 42 are fixedly connected to the end 41. The end 41 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the steel channel 1. A first insertion hole 411 is provided at the bottom of the end 41. The movable end 34 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the first insertion hole 411.
[0051] A fixing post 412 is fixedly connected to the end 41, and the fixing post 412 is slidably connected to the second insertion hole 51, which is located at the bottom of the support plate 5.
[0052] In this embodiment, the crossbar 4 is a transverse support beam used to support the support plate and transfer the weight of the material to the first telescopic bar. The crossbar 4 is mounted between the two first telescopic bars 3, with its end 41 slidably connected to the inner wall of the steel channel 1, and its movable end 34 inserted into the first insertion hole 411. The third telescopic bar 42 is telescopic, allowing adjustment of the length of the crossbar 4 to accommodate shelves of different widths. In specific implementation, the end 41 is made of metal and matches the shape of the inner wall of the steel channel 1, allowing it to slide up and down along the steel channel 1. The third telescopic bar 42 adopts a sleeve-type telescopic structure, with an adjustment range designed according to the width of the shelf, typically from 400mm to 1200mm. The locking mechanism uses wing bolts or quick-release buckles for easy adjustment and fixation by the user.
[0053] Furthermore, end 41 is the connector at both ends of the crossbar 4, used to connect with the steel channel 1 and the movable end 34; the third telescopic rod 42 is a telescopic rod-shaped part used to adjust the length of the crossbar. The first insertion hole 411 is a hole opened at the bottom of end 41, used to cooperate with the movable end 34 to prevent lateral movement; the fixing post 412 is a columnar protrusion fixed to the upper surface of the head body, used to connect with the support plate 5 to prevent the support plate 5 from moving laterally.
[0054] In this embodiment, the support plate 5 is made of metal, wood, or plastic, and its surface may be provided with anti-slip textures or anti-slip mats. The position of the second insertion hole 51 corresponds to the position of the fixing post 412 to ensure that the support plate 5 is placed stably. The dimensions of the support plate 5 are designed according to the width and depth of the shelf, and are usually standard specifications to facilitate mass production and replacement.
[0055] In use, firstly, vertically fix the two steel channels 1 to the ground or the shelf frame to form the left and right uprights of the shelf. Then, determine the layer spacing of the storage layer according to the height of the materials, and install the positioning blocks 2 at the corresponding mounting holes 11 on the steel channels 1. During installation, press the positioning shaft 21 to retract it into the first through hole 22, slide the positioning block 2 into the groove of the steel channel 1. When the positioning shaft 21 is aligned with the mounting hole 11, the first spring 23 pops the positioning shaft 21 out and inserts it into the mounting hole 11, thus fixing the positioning block 2. Next, fix the fixed end 31 of the first telescopic rod 3 to the top of the positioning block 2, and place the crossbar 4 on the movable ends 34 of the two first telescopic rods 3. The movable ends 34 are inserted into the first insertion hole 411 at the bottom of the end 41. Finally, place the support plate 5 on the crossbar 4, and insert the fixing post 412 into the second insertion hole 51 at the bottom of the support plate 5 to complete the installation of the storage layer. If you need to adjust the floor height, press the positioning shaft 21 to retract it, slide the positioning block 2 along the steel groove 1 to the new position, and release it so that the positioning shaft 21 automatically pops out and is fixed.
[0056] When workers place excessively heavy materials on the support plate 5, the weight of the materials is transmitted through the support plate 5 and the crossbar 4 to the movable end 34 of the first telescopic rod 3. The movable end 34 moves downwards under this force, and the movable plate 32 compresses the second spring 33, causing it to slide downwards along the inner wall of the fixed end 31. The movable contact 64, embedded in the surface of the movable end 34, moves downwards with the movable end 34 and contacts the fixed contact 63. At this time, the power supply 62, indicator light 61, fixed contact 63, and movable contact 64 form a closed circuit. The first indicator light 61 illuminates, indicating that the storage location has stored sufficiently heavy materials and that no more materials should be placed there.
[0057] The arc plate 315 is used to scrape the surface of the movable contact 64 to remove oxide layers and contaminants, while the scraper 316 is used to clean the surface of the movable contact 64, ensuring tight contact between the movable contact 64 and the fixed contact 63, and ensuring reliable circuit continuity. When used for a long time or in a humid environment, the movable contact 64, being exposed, is prone to oxidation or contaminant adhesion. The arc plate 315 scrapes the surface of the movable contact 64 to remove oxide layers and contaminants, and the scraper 316 cleans the surface of the movable contact 64, ensuring tight contact between the movable contact 64 and the fixed contact 63, ensuring reliable circuit continuity, and maintaining the warning effect of the indicator light 61.
[0058] After the staff removes the material from the support plate 5, the weight on the support plate 5 disappears. The elastic force of the second spring 33 pushes the movable plate 32 upward, and the movable end 34 returns to its original position. The movable contact 64 moves upward with the movable end 34 and separates from the fixed contact 63. The circuit is broken, and the indicator light 61 goes out, indicating that the storage location has been emptied.
[0059] The stiffness of the second spring 33 is designed such that when a material exceeding the first threshold weight is placed on the support plate 5, the displacement of the movable end 34 is sufficient to reliably contact the first movable contact 64 with the fixed contact 63, at which point the first indicator light 61 illuminates. When a material exceeding the second threshold weight is placed on the support plate 5, the displacement of the movable end 34 reliably contacts the second movable contact 64 with the fixed contact 63, and the second indicator light 61 illuminates. For heavier goods, the displacement of the movable end 34 reliably contacts the second movable contact 64 with the fixed contact 63, at which point the movable plate 32 rests on the second fixed ring 35, providing rigid support. For lighter materials, the displacement of the movable end 34 is small, and the movable contact 64 just contacts the fixed contact 63. For heavier materials, the displacement of the movable end 34 is large, and the second spring 33 is compressed, providing buffering and overload protection.
