On the contrary, the purpose of introducing the utility model in conjunction with the implementation is to cover other options or modifications that may be extended based on the claims of the present invention. In order to provide a deep understanding of the present invention, the following description will include many specific details. The present invention can also be implemented without using these details. In addition, in order to avoid confusion or blurring the focus of the present invention, some specific details will be omitted in the description. It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments in the present invention and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0029] It should be noted that in this specification, similar reference numerals and letters denote similar items in the following drawings, and therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further defined and explained in the subsequent drawings.

[0030] The terms “first”, “second”, etc. are only used for distinguishing descriptions and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0031] In the description of this embodiment, it is also necessary to explain that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "set", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this embodiment can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0032] At present, during the production process, operators need to frequently open the skirt board on the storage cabinet to maintain and overhaul the sprocket that drives the conveyor bottom belt, and then close the skirt board after the overhaul is completed. Since the skirt board is located at a high position, the operator needs to climb to the skirt board with a ladder, and then use a simple rod to open and close the skirt board, which not only poses a safety hazard and easily causes personal injury, but also when the operator uses the rod to close the skirt board, the skirt board falls directly under the action of gravity, and finally stops after colliding with the cabinet body, which easily causes damage to the skirt board.

[0033] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides an opening and closing tool, which enables the operator to slowly open and close the skirt board without climbing a ladder, thereby avoiding safety hazards and preventing the skirt board from being damaged due to impact.

[0034] In order to make the technical solution and advantages of the present invention more clear, the implementation methods of the present invention are described in further detail below.

[0035] refer to Figures 1 to 7 The embodiment of the utility model provides an opening and closing tool for opening and closing a storage cabinet skirt 7, wherein the skirt 7 has a hinged end 71 and a free end 72, and the hinged end 71 is hinged to the storage cabinet. The opening and closing tool provided by the utility model comprises a support plate 1 and a support rod 2, wherein the support plate 1 comprises a first curved plate 3 and a second curved plate 4 connected to each other, and the bending direction of the first curved plate 3 (such as Figure 1 The bending direction of the second curved plate 4 (as shown in the M1 direction in FIG. Figure 1 The first arc-shaped plate 3 has a first stop groove 5 formed on its inner side surface, and the first stop groove 5 is used to abut against the free end 72 of the skirt board 7 when the skirt board 7 is in a closed state, so as to drive the skirt board 7 to rotate to an open state. The second arc-shaped plate 4 has a second stop groove 6 formed on its inner side surface, and the second stop groove 6 is used to abut against the free end 72 of the skirt board 7 when the skirt board 7 is in an open state, so as to drive the skirt board 7 to rotate to a closed state. The support rod 2 is connected to the support plate 1.

[0036] Specifically, along the bending direction of the first curved plate 3, two ends of the first curved plate 3 are respectively a first connecting end and a first inserting end. Along the bending direction of the second curved plate 4, two ends of the second curved plate 4 are respectively a second connecting end and a second inserting end. The first connecting end is connected to the second connecting end.

[0037] When the skirt board 7 needs to be opened, the operator can hold the support rod 2 to insert the first insertion end of the first curved plate 3 between the free end 72 of the skirt board 7 and the storage cabinet, so that the first limiting groove 5 on the first curved plate 3 abuts against the free end 72 of the skirt board 7, and then the operator lifts the support rod 2 upward to support the skirt board 7 to gradually rotate to the open state. For example, Figure 3 It shows a schematic diagram of the skirt panel 7 when the opening angle is relatively small. Figure 5 FIG. 2 shows a schematic diagram of the skirt plate 7 when the opening angle is large. The rotation direction of the skirt plate 7 when it is opened is as follows: Figure 3 and Figure 5 When the skirt board 7 needs to be closed, the second insertion end of the second curved plate 4 is inserted between the free end 72 of the skirt board 7 and the storage cabinet, so that the second limiting groove 6 on the second curved plate 4 abuts against the free end 72 of the skirt board 7, and then the skirt board 7 is slowly pulled downward until the skirt board 7 is completely closed. Figure 6 As shown, the rotation direction of the skirt plate 7 when closed is as follows Figure 6 As shown in the direction of R2.

[0038] The utility model provides a support rod 2 with a certain length, so that the operator does not need to climb the ladder, thereby avoiding safety hazards. The utility model also designs the first curved plate 3 and the second curved plate 4, so that when the skirt plate 7 is opened and closed, the first limiting groove 5 and the second limiting groove 6 can abut against the free end 72 of the skirt plate 7, so that the support plate 1 always provides support force to the skirt plate 7 during the process of opening or closing the skirt plate 7, so as to realize the slow opening and closing of the skirt plate 7, thereby avoiding the problem of the skirt plate 7 being damaged due to impact.

[0039] Optionally, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 6 The first insertion end is provided with a first stop plate 31, which can be inserted between the free end 72 of the skirt board 7 and the storage cabinet when the skirt board 7 is in the closed state; the second insertion end is provided with a second stop plate 41, which can be inserted between the free end 72 of the skirt board 7 and the storage cabinet when the skirt board 7 is in the closed state. Figure 1 The extension direction of the first limiting plate 31 and the second limiting plate 41 are both aligned with the extension direction of the support rod 2 (eg Figure 1 The X direction in FIG.

[0040] The utility model provides the first limiting plate 31 and the second limiting plate 41. On the one hand, since the first limiting plate 31 and the second limiting plate 41 are thin plates, they are easy to extend into the gap between the free end 72 of the skirt board 7 and the storage cabinet, so that the first limiting groove 5 or the second limiting groove 6 abuts against the free end 72 of the skirt board 7. On the other hand, the provision of the first limiting plate 31 and the second limiting plate 41 can further limit the disengagement between the first limiting groove 5 or the second limiting groove 6 and the free end 72 of the skirt board 7, so as to further avoid the problem that the support plate 1 and the skirt board 7 are disengaged during the process of opening or closing the skirt board 7, causing the skirt board 7 to directly fall under the action of gravity and collide with the storage cabinet.

[0041] Optionally, the support rod 2 can be extended and retracted along its extension direction. Figure 1The support rod 2 includes a plurality of sleeve rods 21 connected in sequence, the outer diameter of each sleeve rod 21 decreases in sequence, and each sleeve rod 21 can be nested in the sleeve rod 21 with a larger outer diameter adjacent to it. Exemplarily, each sleeve rod 21 is connected by a spring-type buckle. This design facilitates the extension and contraction of the support rod 2. When it is necessary to open or close the skirt board 7, each sleeve rod 21 can be pulled out from the sleeve rod 21 in which it is nested in sequence, so that the support rod 2 is extended to a preset length. At this time, the spring-type buckle can lock each sleeve rod 21 to prevent the length of the support rod 2 from changing. Then, the support rod 2 is lifted so that the support plate 1 can reach the skirt board 7 at a higher position, thereby opening or closing the skirt board 7. When the opening and closing tool is not needed, the spring-type buckle is compressed to unlock each sleeve rod 21, and then each sleeve rod 21 is sequentially retracted into the adjacent sleeve rod 21 to shrink the support rod 2, so as to facilitate storage.

[0042] Optionally, refer to Figure 1 The outer circumferential surface of the sleeve rod 21 with the largest outer diameter is provided with a gripping portion 22, and the sleeve rod 21 with the smallest outer diameter is provided with a connecting piece 23, which is used to connect the support rod 2 and the support plate 1. The design of the gripping portion 22 is not only convenient for the operator to hold the support rod 2, but also the surface of the gripping portion 22 is provided with a texture, which can increase the friction between the operator's hand and the support rod 2, so as to prevent the support rod 2 from slipping in the operator's hand when the operator uses the opening and closing tool to open or close the skirt board, thereby affecting the use.

[0043] Optionally, the support plate 1 is made of stainless steel, which has good corrosion resistance and can make the support plate 1 more durable.

[0044] Optionally, the material of the support rod 2 is aluminum. Aluminum is light in weight, which is convenient for the operator to lift the support rod 2, saving manpower.

[0045] Although the present invention has been illustrated and described with reference to certain preferred embodiments of the present invention, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that the above contents are further detailed descriptions of the present invention in combination with specific embodiments, and it cannot be determined that the specific implementation of the present invention is limited to these descriptions. Those skilled in the art may make various changes in form and details, including making several simple deductions or substitutions, without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
