Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a stacking structure, and more particularly to a structure for stacking pallets. Background Art
[0002] In logistics shipping, on the one hand, pallets facilitate the cooperation with mechanical equipment such as forklifts, reducing the labor intensity and time of manual handling, thus significantly improving the efficiency of loading and unloading operations; on the other hand, goods placed on pallets can be stacked neatly and regularly, making full use of the space in the warehouse.
[0003] When storing pallets, in order to increase the storage capacity of pallets in the warehouse, pallets need to be stacked to a certain height before storage. The existing method of stacking pallets is to directly stack them manually. On the one hand, since the pallet itself has a certain weight, at least two operators are required to cooperate during stacking. And as the stacking height increases, the stacking difficulty becomes greater and more physical strength is consumed. Not only is the labor intensity high, but the stacking efficiency is also low, which leads to the need for a larger space to temporarily store unstacked pallets. On the other hand, there will be an irregular stacking situation during manual stacking, which results in low stability after multiple pallets are overlapped. Operators are at risk of being injured by toppled pallets during stacking work, especially when transported by forklifts, the risk of pallet dropping is even higher.
[0004] Therefore, those skilled in the art are committed to providing a structure for stacking pallets that can effectively solve the above technical problems. Summary of the Utility Model

[0047] The optimal working principle of the present utility model is as follows:
[0048] During use, the trays to be overlapped are placed on the conveyor belt 8. For the convenience of distinction and more detailed description of the working principle, the first tray placed on the conveyor belt is represented by T1 at this time;
[0049] The driving motor 9 is driven to drive the driving rotating shaft 5 to rotate, so that the conveyor belt 8 moves. The first tray (T1) is conveyed above the upper top unit 13 by the movement of the conveyor belt 8 and then stops.

Subsequently, the upper top cylinder is used to jack up the upper top member 15. The first tray 99 (T1) is jacked up by the rising upper top member 15. Subsequently, the two fixed material support plates 20 on both sides are inserted into the first tray 99 (T1), so as to lift the first tray (T1). At this time, the upper top member 15 is retracted by the upper top cylinder;
[0050] The overlapping second tray is represented by T2
[0051] The second tray (T2) stops after being conveyed above the upper lifting unit 13 by the conveyor belt 8. At this time, the second tray (T2) is exactly below the first tray (T1). Subsequently, the second tray (T2) is lifted upward by the upper lifting unit 13. When the support feet 97 of the first tray (T1) are inserted into the limit slots 98 of the second tray (T2), it stops. Then, the inner pushing cylinder 18 retracts the material positioning support plate 20. At this time, the first tray (T1) is no longer supported by the material positioning support plate 20 but is located on the second tray (T2). At this time, the upper lifting cylinder continues to push the first tray (T1) and the second tray (T2) upward until the second tray (T2) rises between the respective material positioning support plates 20. At this time, the inner pushing cylinder 18 is used to push the respective material positioning support plates 20 inward, so that the respective material positioning support plates 20 are inserted on the second tray (T2) and support it. At this time, the upper lifting cylinder can retract the upper lifting member 15 to start stacking the next tray;
[0052] When the stacking of the last tray is completed, the upper lifting member 15 is used to lift each tray. Then, the inner pushing cylinder 18 retracts the material positioning support plate 20. Finally, the upper lifting member 15 is retracted, so that each tray is supported by the conveyor belt 8, and the conveyor belt 8 is supported by the respective rotating support wheels 12 on the support frame 10. Then, the limiting cylinder is used to drive the limiting member 51 to descend. Finally, when the forklift (not shown in the figure) drives to the side of the limiting unit 38, the stacked trays can be forklifted away.
