Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of ceiling storage racks, in particular to a ceiling storage rack which is easy to install and has adjustable height. Background Art

[0002] Using space to store items efficiently is an important task in home, commercial and industrial environments. Garages, warehouses and other storage spaces often face the challenge of limited floor space, so various types of hanging storage racks have been developed to solve this problem. However, traditional installation methods may require multi-person cooperation or complicated operations, as well as the dangers of installation and use, which limits their convenience and practicality.

[0003] In the prior art, there is a common installation method for hanging storage racks, the basic principle of which is to fix the panel to the bracket under the suspension by screws or other fixing devices. This method is widely used in many hanging storage rack products, but its installation process requires the cooperation of multiple people or the use of additional auxiliary tools.

[0004] This implementation usually includes the following steps:

[0005] Prepare the racks and panels: First, you need to prepare the racks and panels. The racks are usually metal structures mounted on the ceiling, while the panels are the platforms used to place items.

[0006] Lifting the panel: One operator will usually need to lift the panel and align it with the bracket. This may require additional manpower as the panel needs to be suspended in the air until it is secured.

[0007] Securing the Panel: Once the panel is aligned with the bracket, another operator will typically secure the panel to the bracket using screws or other fixings. This may require adjusting the position and angle of the panel to ensure proper installation.

[0008] Check and Adjust: Finally, the installer will usually check the panel's securement and make any necessary adjustments to ensure the panel is mounted securely and level.

[0009] This prior art solution is effective in many cases, but it requires the cooperation of multiple people or the use of additional auxiliary tools, making the installation process relatively complicated and time-consuming. Therefore, although it has been widely adopted, there is still room for improvement to improve the convenience and efficiency of the installation process.

[0035] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the utility model clearer, the following will be described clearly and completely in combination with the technical solution in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are partial embodiments of the utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the protection scope of the utility model.

[0036] A preferred embodiment of the utility model is an easy-to-install and height-adjustable ceiling storage shelf; Figure 1 As shown, it includes multiple groups of beams 10 arranged on the ceiling, and the lower ends of the beams are connected to ceiling fixings 11, and each two groups of beams are connected on the same side by a group of ceiling fixings, so as to connect the two ends of each two groups of beams. In the utility model, a total of 6 groups of beams are arranged, and 6 groups of ceiling fixings are arranged to divide the 6 groups of beams into three groups, and they are arranged side by side, wherein the lower ends of the two groups of ceiling fixings 11 on both sides are connected to side columns 12, and the lower ends of the middle group of ceiling fixings are connected to the middle column 13, the side columns and the middle column are of the same length, and the support plates 15 are connected below the middle column and below the side columns, and then the support plates are firmly connected to the side columns and the middle column by screws 14, and at the same time, the side columns and the middle column are also connected and fixed to the ceiling fixings by screws.

[0037] Specifically, Figure 3As shown in FIG. 4 , the center column 13 includes a center lower column 130, and a stopper 1300 extending in the same direction is arranged on both sides of the center lower column. The center column also includes a center lower column 131 arranged between the stoppers, and the stoppers prevent the center lower column from moving left and right, so that it can only move in the up and down direction. The center lower column 130 is provided with multiple groups of height holes 133, and the multiple groups of height holes are arranged at different heights, and the corresponding height holes of the center upper column are also provided with multiple groups of height holes 133. When the two groups of height holes overlap, the screws can be locked to change the height of the center column. In order to facilitate the height adjustment of the center lower column 130 and the center upper column 131, multiple groups of hanging walls 1301 are arranged on the center lower column, and multiple groups of hanging holes 1310 are arranged on the corresponding hanging walls on the center upper column. The hanging walls can move in the hanging holes to adjust the corresponding situation of the height holes, thereby adjusting the height of the center column. In order to facilitate the connection between the middle column and the ceiling fixing, screw holes 112 are provided on the middle lower column and the middle upper column, and screws are passed through the screw holes to connect the middle lower column or the middle upper column to the ceiling fixing. The lower end of the middle lower column 130 is connected to a support portion 132, and screw holes are also provided on the support portion. The support plate is fixed to the middle column by screws passing through the screw holes on the support portion. In order to prevent the support plate from moving forward and backward, an upwardly extending locking ear 1320 is provided at the outer end of the support portion. The locking ear is used to limit the support plate to prevent the support plate from moving forward and backward. In order to save the number of middle columns, two groups of support portions 132 are provided on the support portion of each group of middle columns, and a partition 1321 is provided in the middle of the support portion to separate the two groups of support portions, so as to facilitate the installation of the support plate.

[0038] Furthermore, if Figure 3 As shown in FIG. 5 , the upper part of the hanging hole 1310 is a square hole 13100, and the lower part is a triangular hole 13101, and the triangular hole and the square hole have a common right-angled side so that the hanging hole is in the shape of a right-angled trapezoid. The hanging wall is set on the longest side of the right-angled trapezoid and can move on the longest side, and the overlap of the height holes of the middle lower column and the middle upper column at different heights is adjusted during the movement. Therefore, the vertical projection length of the longest side of the right-angled trapezoid should be greater than the distance between the two groups of height holes, so as to facilitate the adjustment of the height of the middle column. At the same time, the setting of the triangular hole can increase the strength of the middle part of the middle column, and when the hanging wall is placed in the triangular part, it provides greater support force, and the installation is more stable.

[0039] Furthermore, if Figure 6-7, the side column 12 also includes a side lower column 121 and a side upper column 120, and the connection and height adjustment methods are the same as those of the center column, which will not be repeated here. The difference is that the side column is L-shaped, including a middle arm 124 and side walls 123 arranged at both ends of the middle arm, a height hole 133 is arranged on the middle arm, and a hanging hole 1310 and a hanging wall 1301 are arranged on the side wall to achieve height adjustment and connection. Since the side column is L-shaped, there is no need to set a stopper on both sides of the side wall. The side support part 122 is connected to the lower side column, and two sets of locking parts 125 are arranged on the side support part. The screws fixed on the support plate enter the locking part to connect the support plate to the side column.

[0040] Furthermore, if Figure 6 As shown in FIG. 8, the locking portion 125 includes a first inclined wall 1250 and a first transverse groove 1252 disposed below the first inclined wall. A square groove 1253 is formed in the first transverse groove extending in the direction of the first inclined wall, and a second inclined wall 1251 is formed at the end of the first transverse groove extending outward. The second inclined wall and the first inclined wall do not intersect in the projection direction of the horizontal plane. When installing the support plate, the screws of the support plate connected with the screws are placed on the first inclined wall, and the screws are naturally slid into the first transverse groove, and then the screws are locked.

[0041] Furthermore, if Figure 2 and Fig. 9 As shown in Figure 10, the support plate 15 includes a frame 151 and a panel 150 arranged on the frame. In order to facilitate the transportation of the support plate, each two groups of panels are connected by hinges 152, so that the support plate can be folded. Screw holes 112 are arranged on the side of the panel, screws are arranged on the screw holes, and multiple groups of through holes 153 are arranged on the surface of the panel. The ceiling fixing part 11 includes a fixed connecting arm 110 and a hanging connecting arm 111 integrally formed with the fixed connecting arm, and multiple groups of screw holes 112 are arranged on the fixed connecting arm and the hanging connecting arm. The fixed connecting arm is fixedly connected to the crossbeam, and the hanging connecting arm is connected to the middle column and the side column. Therefore, the ceiling fixing part should be set in an L shape, that is, when the fixed connecting arm is horizontal, the hanging connecting arm is in a vertical direction.

[0042] During installation, fix the ceiling fixings 11 on the beam 10, and then connect and fix the side columns 13 and the center column 12 to the ceiling fixings with screws. Specifically, fix the middle upper column 131 and the side upper column 121 to the ceiling fixings with screws, then adjust the middle lower column 130 and the side lower column 120 at different heights, pass the hanging arm 1301 through the hanging hole 1310, adjust the height of the middle lower column and the side lower column to align the height hole 133, and use screws to connect the center column and the side columns to form three groups, with two groups of side columns placed on both sides and the center column placed in the middle, and fix the screws on the support plate with some of the screws exposed. Place one side of the support plate with screws installed in contact with the side column and then slide it down. When it slides down to the first inclined wall 1250, it slides on the first inclined wall until it slides into the horizontal groove 1252, and the screws are locked. At this time, the support plate is connected to the side column. Use a retractable support to hang the support plate on the middle column, and place the other side of the support plate on the supporting part, and the locking ear is inserted into the inner surface of the frame. Use screws to fix the supporting part and the support plate, and then assemble the support plates of other groups. After the assembly is completed, all screws are tightened to complete the installation.
