[0002] There are two existing ways to transport cars in containers. One is the special box type that uses modified special containers to transport cars; the other is the frame type that uses special loading racks and general containers to transport cars. At present, the two methods of container transportation of cars coexist, and each has its own advantages and disadvantages.
[0003] Among them, the rack container for transporting cars is made of steel, and then assembled and welded with fasteners to form a loading bracket. However, in this loading bracket, the upper frame is generally able to rotate, and by rotating one end of the frame to tilt it with the car body it supports, a car can still be loaded on the lower layer, thereby saving container space and improving space utilization. However, the bracket structure of this method is generally fixed, which is more than enough for transporting conventional small-sized vehicles. If it is some elevated cars, such as larger SUV cars, because their chassis and body frames are higher, therefore, simply relying on rotating one end of the upper frame, it is impossible to accommodate a large SUV car below. In order to solve this problem, it is necessary to design an adjustable bracket for container-carrying cars. Utility Model Content

[0026] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0027] See also Figure 1-2 , an adjustable support for container-carrying automobiles, comprising a bottom frame 1 and a top frame 2 located above the bottom frame 1, the top frame 2 being two groups symmetrically arranged on both sides of the bottom frame 1 to correspond to the wheels on both sides of the automobile, the top frame 2 being used to carry the automobile, and the bottom frame 1 and located below the top frame 2 being used to carry the automobile, the above is the structural form of a conventional container-carrying automobile support in the prior art, and further comprising:
[0028] The auxiliary support frame 3 is arranged at one end of the top frame 2. One end of the auxiliary support frame 3 is hinged on the bottom frame 1, and the other end is hinged to one end of the top frame 2. Therefore, after the auxiliary support frame 3 is supported, the basic height of the top frame 2 can be increased. Then, only the height of the other end of the top frame 2 needs to be raised for use, so that the overall height of the top frame 2 can meet the requirements of more vehicle models.
[0029] The lifting mechanism is arranged on both sides of the bottom frame 1 and corresponds to the two groups of top frames 2. The lifting mechanism is used to lift the end of the top frame 2 opposite to the auxiliary support frame 3, so that the top frame 2 is lifted to an appropriate height after the car is parked on it, so as to continue to load the car underneath.
[0030] Furthermore, the lifting mechanism includes a first upright frame 4, which is vertically arranged on the bottom frame 1, a positioning tube 5 is sleeved on the first upright frame 4, and one end of the top frame 2 opposite to the auxiliary support frame 3 is hinged to the outside of the positioning tube 5;
[0031] A positioning support mechanism is provided between the positioning cylinder 5 and the first stand 4;
[0032] A first lifting drive mechanism is provided at the top end of the first stand 4 to drive the positioning tube 5 to lift and move along the first stand 4 .
[0033] Specifically, after the first lifting drive mechanism drives the positioning cylinder 5 to lift and move along the first vertical frame 4 to an appropriate height, the positioning support mechanism positions the supporting height of the positioning cylinder 5 on the lifted end of the top frame 2 to stably support the vehicle body.
[0034] Furthermore, the positioning support mechanism includes a first positioning hole 6 formed on the first stand 4 and a second positioning hole 7 formed on the positioning tube 5;
[0035] The first positioning holes 6 are multiple and continuously evenly distributed on the first stand 4 in the longitudinal direction;
[0036] Two second positioning holes 7 are longitudinally distributed on the first vertical frames 4 and are correspondingly arranged between the plurality of first vertical frames 4 .
[0037] Specifically, after the positioning cylinder 5 rises to an appropriate height, the second positioning hole 7 on the positioning cylinder 5 is aligned with the first positioning hole 6 at the corresponding height, and a pin or a load-bearing shaft is inserted into the second positioning hole 7 and the first positioning hole 6 at the same time to position the positioning cylinder 5 at a specified height on the first stand 4, so as to fix the support height of the top frame 2.
[0038] Furthermore, the first lifting drive mechanism includes a first guide wheel 8 and a first winding drum 9. The first guide wheel 8 is arranged on the top of the first vertical frame 4. The first winding drum 9 is arranged on the side surface of the first vertical frame 4 opposite to the side of the top frame 2. The first winding drum 9 winds up a first traction rope 10. The first traction rope 10 is overlapped on the first guide wheel 8 and connected to the positioning drum 5.
[0039] Specifically, the first winding drum 9 is driven by an external driving motor to rotate at an appropriate angle so that the first traction rope 10 can be wound up by the first winding drum 9. At the same time, with the support of the first guide wheel 8 for changing the direction of the first traction rope 10, the positioning drum 5 is pulled by the first traction rope 10 to be lifted, and after being lifted to an appropriate height, the height is positioned by the positioning support mechanism.
[0040] Furthermore, auxiliary lifting mechanisms are provided on both sides of the bottom frame 1, and the two sets of auxiliary lifting mechanisms are provided in a one-to-one correspondence with the two sets of top frames 2;
[0041] The auxiliary lifting mechanism includes a second upright frame 11, which is vertically arranged on the base frame 1. The second upright frame 11 is provided with a second lifting drive mechanism to assist the lifting of the hinged end of the top frame 2 and the auxiliary support frame 3, so that the lifting and lowering adjustment of the top frame 2 is more stable.
[0042] Furthermore, the second lifting drive mechanism includes a second guide wheel 12 and a second winding drum 13. The second guide wheel 12 is arranged at the top of the second vertical frame 11. The second winding drum 13 is arranged on the side surface of the second vertical frame 11 opposite to the side of the top frame 2. The second winding drum 13 has a second traction rope 14 wound on it. The second traction rope 14 is overlapped on the first guide wheel 8 and connected to one end of the auxiliary support frame 3 hinged on the top frame 2.
[0043] Specifically, the second winding drum 13 is driven by an external driving motor to rotate at an appropriate angle so that the second traction rope 14 can be wound up by the second winding drum 13. At the same time, under the directional support of the second guide wheel 12 for the second traction rope 14, the top frame 2 is lifted by the second traction rope 14 to adjust the height.
[0044] In summary, when the top frame of the support frame is adjusted, the device can increase its height as a whole, thereby increasing the height of the space below the top frame, and then being able to accommodate the loading of more sized vehicles below it, thereby improving the versatility of the device in carrying vehicles.
[0045] The above only describes some exemplary embodiments of the present invention by way of illustration. It is undoubted that those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
