Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of logistics pallet production and manufacturing, and specifically provides a reinforced pallet. Background Art
[0002] In the logistics turnover industry, in order to improve production efficiency and reduce labor intensity, turnover pallets are widely used. The existing mainstream pallets have evolved from wooden pallets to plastic pallets that are moisture-resistant, acid and alkali-resistant, lightweight and beautiful.
[0003] Nowadays, in order to reduce problems such as difficult mold opening, large equipment investment, and high costs, the plastic pallets produced are generally such that the upper panel and the lower socket are produced separately and then combined into a whole. Since it is a combined pallet with upper and lower combinations, the strength of each connection part is lower than that of an integral pallet. At the same time, whether it is an integral pallet or a combined pallet, when the weight of some goods is concentrated at one point, the force on the entire pallet is unevenly distributed, and the area with excessive force is prone to fracture and damage. Therefore, a reinforced pallet is designed. Summary of the Utility Model
[0004] The utility model provides a reinforced pallet with higher load-bearing capacity and strength.
[0005] The technical solution of the utility model is as follows:
[0006] A reinforced pallet, wherein a support member is provided at the forklift insertion opening of the reinforced pallet, and the upper and lower ends of the support member respectively abut against the upper and lower surfaces of the forklift insertion opening.
[0007] It should be noted that for pallets of specifications such as the H-shaped, the cross-shaped, and the double-sided type, the forklift insertion area will be enclosed into an opening, which often lacks support and is a disaster area for fracture and damage. Without affecting the forklift's entry, the support member is arranged at this opening to effectively prevent the upper panel from breaking due to excessive load-bearing.
[0008] Preferably, it includes an upper panel and a lower socket, and the upper and lower ends of the support member respectively abut against the upper panel and the lower socket of the pallet.
[0009] In this solution, a reinforcement mechanism is also set for the combined pallet, that is, a support component is additionally arranged between the upper panel and the lower socket to bear the force of the panel. Especially in the upper and lower combined pallets, an additional support member is added to share the force at the connection, improve the overall load-bearing capacity of the pallet, and at the same time increase the force-bearing points of the upper panel, effectively preventing the upper panel from breaking due to excessive load-bearing.
[0010] Preferably, a support member is arranged at the connection between the upper panel and the lower socket.
[0011] In this solution, the support members are arranged at other positions of the forklift outlet and are evenly arranged between the upper panel and the lower sleeve feet. Evenly arranging the support members can better disperse the weight of the goods carried by the pallet and improve the overall carrying capacity of the pallet.
[0012] It should be noted that for the modular pallet, a splicing groove is provided under the upper panel, and a splicing part is provided under the lower leg, which is inserted into the splicing groove. In order to save materials and facilitate injection molding, the splicing part is often a hollow structure, and the supporting member is arranged inside the splicing part to increase the strength of the connection between the leg and the upper panel.
[0013] Preferably, the support members are inserted into grid grooves in the lower foot and the upper panel.
[0014] It should be noted that for the combined pallet, the upper panel and the lower leg are both formed by injection molding. The grid groove structure can reduce consumables while increasing strength, and avoid deformation or breakage during molding or use. The grid groove opens upward to ensure the flatness of the bottom of the leg, and can also block the grid groove when combined with the upper panel, making it more beautiful. Therefore, the support member can be directly set in the grid groove, and there is no need to set countersunk holes for the support member to be inserted on the upper panel and the lower leg separately, which reduces the difficulty of injection molding of the upper panel and the lower leg.
[0015] Preferably, an abutment plate is provided in the grid groove, and the abutment plate is arranged parallel to the opening direction of the grid groove. When the supporting member is arranged in the grid groove, the abutment plate abuts against the side wall of the supporting member to prevent the supporting member from shaking and ensure the supporting strength of the supporting member.
[0016] Preferably, one end of the abutment plate located at the opening of the grid slot is chamfered so that the opening for inserting the support member is larger, thereby facilitating the insertion of the support member into the grid slot.
[0017] Preferably, a limiting column is provided on the lower layer foot, the limiting column is slidably provided on the lower layer foot, and the limiting column can extend from the bottom of the lower layer foot.
[0018] Preferably, the supporting structure comprises a main supporting column, and the main supporting column is perpendicular to the upper panel and the lower foot, respectively.
[0019] Preferably, the supporting structure further comprises an auxiliary supporting column, wherein the auxiliary supporting column is arranged obliquely to the main supporting column, wherein one end of the auxiliary supporting column is fixedly connected to the main supporting column, and the other end abuts against the upper panel or the lower foot.
[0020] In this solution, the main support column, the auxiliary support column and the upper panel or the lower foot part between the two columns form a triangular structure, which further improves the overall load-bearing capacity and strength of the pallet.
[0021] Beneficial effects of the utility model:
[0022] The utility model sets a support member at the forklift opening, and the support member is set at this opening to provide more support points, effectively preventing the upper panel from being broken due to excessive load. At the same time, for the combined pallet, an additional support component is set between the upper panel and the lower sleeve to bear the load on the panel. The more integrated pallet can add more support members to share the force at the interface, improve the overall load-bearing capacity of the pallet, and at the same time increase the force points of the upper panel, effectively preventing the upper panel from being broken due to excessive load.

[0031] In conjunction with the accompanying drawings, the technical solution of the present invention is clearly and completely described through the specific implementation methods of the embodiments of the present invention.
[0032] A reinforced pallet, a support member 1 is provided at the forklift socket 21 of the reinforced pallet, and the upper and lower ends of the support member 1 respectively abut against the upper and lower surfaces of the forklift socket 21.
[0033] It should be noted that for pallets of specifications such as the three-way type, the four-way type, and the double-sided type, the forklift insertion area will be enclosed into an opening. This opening often lacks support and is a disaster area for fracture and damage. Without affecting the entry of the forklift, the support member is set at this opening to effectively prevent the upper panel from breaking due to excessive load.
[0034] Embodiment 1:
[0035] The support member 1 can be used in an integrated pallet or a combined pallet. For example, Figures 1 to 3 As shown in a combined pallet, including a support member 1, the upper and lower ends of the support member 1 respectively abut against the upper panel 2 and the lower socket 3 of the pallet. The support member 1 is located inside the connection between the lower socket 3 and the upper panel 2 or the support member 1 is located at the forklift socket 21 formed by enclosing the upper panel 2 and the lower socket 3. The support member 1 can also be set at both positions. The support member 1 includes a main support column 11, and the main support column 11 is perpendicular to the upper panel 2 and the lower socket 3 respectively.
[0036] Specifically, the main support columns 11 need to be evenly arranged between the upper panel 2 and the lower socket 3. Evenly arranging the main support columns 11 can better disperse the weight of the goods carried by the pallet and improve the overall load-bearing capacity of the pallet. For pallets of specifications such as the three-way type, the four-way type, and the double-sided type, the forklift insertion area will be enclosed into an opening by the upper panel 2 and the lower socket 3. Without affecting the entry of the forklift, the main support columns 11 are set on the lower socket 3 at this opening to support the upper panel 2 and provide more support points for the upper panel 2, effectively preventing the upper panel 2 from breaking. At the same time, for pallets that determine the forklift signal, the vertical main support columns 11 set at the forklift socket 21 can divide the forklift socket 21 into the required size and distance, so that when the forklift inserts into the pallet from the forklift socket 21, the pallet cannot shake randomly, ensuring the stability of the transported goods.
[0037] For a combined pallet, a splicing groove is provided under the upper panel 2, and the lower socket 3 is provided with a splicing part 31. The splicing part 31 is inserted into the splicing groove. To save materials and facilitate injection molding, the splicing part 31 is often a hollow structure. The main support column 11 is set inside the splicing part 31 to increase the strength of the connection between the socket and the upper panel 2.
[0038] Therefore, an additional support assembly is provided between the upper panel 2 and the lower leg 3 to bear the load of the panel. In particular, in an upper and lower combined pallet, an additional main support column 11 is added to share the force at the interface and improve the overall load-bearing capacity of the pallet. At the same time, the stress points of the upper panel 2 can be increased, effectively preventing the upper panel 2 from breaking due to excessive load.
[0039] Furthermore, the main support column 11 is inserted into the grid grooves in the lower layer foot 3 and the upper layer panel 2 .
[0040] Specifically, for the combined pallet, the upper panel 2 and the lower leg 3 are both formed by injection molding. The grid groove structure can reduce consumables while increasing strength, and avoid deformation or breakage during molding or use. The grid groove opens upward to ensure the flatness of the bottom of the leg, and can also block the grid groove when combined with the upper panel 2, making it more beautiful. Therefore, the main support column 11 can be directly set in the grid groove, and there is no need to set countersunk holes for the main support column 11 to be inserted on the upper panel 2 and the lower leg 3 separately, reducing the difficulty of injection molding of the upper panel 2 and the lower leg 3.
[0041] When installing the main support column 11 in the modular pallet, it is only necessary to insert the main support column 11 into a grid groove in the lower sleeve foot 3 before the upper panel 2 and the lower sleeve foot 3 are spliced, and then install the upper panel 2. The top of the main support column 11 will be inserted into the grid groove in the upper panel 2 and abut against the upper panel 2.
[0042] Furthermore, an abutment plate 32 is provided in the grid slot, and the abutment plate 32 is provided parallel to the opening direction of the grid slot. When the main support column 11 is provided in the grid slot, the abutment plate 32 abuts against the side wall of the main support column 11 .
[0043] Specifically, the mesh grooves formed by injection molding of the upper panel 2 and the lower foot 3 have different diameters. In order to prevent the main support column 11 from shaking when inserted into the mesh groove and affecting the support strength, an abutment plate 32 is provided to limit the size of the mesh groove so that the mesh groove diameter can be adapted to the shape of the main support column 11.
[0044] Furthermore, one end of the abutment plate 32 located at the opening of the grid slot is chamfered so that the opening for inserting the main support column 11 is larger, which facilitates the main support column 11 to be inserted into the grid slot.
[0045] Embodiment 2:
[0046] To ensure that the tray does not move or slip when placed on the shelf, a limiting post is also provided on the lower socket 3. The limiting post is slidably arranged inside the lower socket 3 and can extend from the bottom of the lower socket 3 under the action of gravity. That is, when the lower socket 3 is placed on a flat ground, the limiting post is pushed back into the lower socket 3 by the ground. When there is no abutting object below the limiting post, the limiting post extends from the bottom of the lower socket 3 under the action of gravity.
[0047] When the lower socket 3 is placed on the shelf, the limiting post on the lower socket 3 extends from the gap between the shelf bars. Alternatively, a special limiting groove can be provided on the shelf for the limiting post to extend. The limiting post will abut against the shelf bar in the horizontal direction, thereby preventing the tray from sliding in the horizontal direction.
[0048] Embodiment Three:
[0049] On the basis of Embodiment One or Two, another structure of the support member 1 is provided, as Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown. The support member 1 further includes an auxiliary support post 12. The auxiliary support post 12 is arranged obliquely to the main support post 11. One end of the auxiliary support post 12 is fixedly connected to the main support post 11, and the other end abuts against the upper panel 2 or the lower socket 3. Preferably, the auxiliary support post 12 abuts against the upper panel 2.
[0050] Specifically, in this solution, the structure of the auxiliary support post 12 is mainly arranged on the support member 1 installed at the forklift socket 21. The main support post 11, the auxiliary support post 12, and the part of the upper panel 2 or the lower socket 3 between the two columns form a triangular structure, further improving the overall load-bearing capacity and strength of the tray. At the same time, as Figure 5 shown in the tray with a "川"-shaped structure. Of course, the same applies to the "田"-shaped and double-sided tray structures. Without interfering with the forklift plug, the support member 1 can be provided at all the enclosed forklift sockets 21, so that the auxiliary support post 12 supports the places where the vertical main support post 11 cannot support, increasing the stress points at the bottom of the upper panel 2 and more evenly distributing the force received by the upper panel 2, greatly improving the overall strength and load-bearing capacity of the tray.
[0051] Furthermore, as Figure 5 shown, at the end of the auxiliary support post 12 connected to the upper panel 2 or the lower socket 3, a corner is provided so that the end is finally perpendicular to the upper panel 2, facilitating the installation of the upper panel 2 during combination.
[0052] Even further, some trays are provided with a reinforcing pipe structure parallel to the upper panel 2 on the upper panel 2 and the lower socket 3. The end of the auxiliary support post 12 connected to the upper panel 2 or the lower socket 3 can be connected to the reinforcing pipe structure, further improving the strength of the reinforcing pipe structure.
[0053] The above shows and describes the basic principle, main features and advantages of the utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that the utility model is not limited by the above embodiments, and the above embodiments and descriptions are only for explaining the principle of the utility model. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model, the utility model may have various changes and improvements, and these changes and improvements fall within the scope of the utility model to be protected.
