DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0018] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0019] Please refer to Figures 1-3, A material rack for an A-pillar reinforcement plate in this embodiment includes a base 1 and an upper rack 4 installed on the base 1. Installation blocks 17 are fixed at the center of the rear side wall and on the right side wall of the upper rack 4. Four installation blocks 17 are also fixed on the top of the base 1. One installation block 17 on the upper rack 4 and two installation blocks 17 on the base 1 form a group. Multiple Y-shaped grooves are formed in the installation blocks 17, and the installation blocks 17 are made of polyurethane material. Products are placed between a group of installation blocks 17. Lifting frames 9 are hinged on the left and right side walls of the upper rack 4. Handles are fixed on the lifting frames 9, and the lifting frames 9 are in an H shape. An adjustment hole opposite to the hinge of the lifting frame 9 is formed at one end of the upper rack 4. A guide rail 10 is fixed at the end of the lifting frame 9 close to the product. The right guide rail 10 is inclined. An upper plate 11 is fixed on the left guide rail 10. A soft brush 12 that can be attached to the product is slidably connected inside the guide rail 10, and the soft brush 12 is increased according to the need for placing the product.
[0020] In the above structure, the products are placed at equal distances in two intervals by three installation blocks as a group. At the same time, the left lifting frame is lowered, so that the soft brush contacts and locks the product for positioning. At the same time, the upper plate presses down on the product, and the middle installation block can clamp and limit the product. Then the right lifting frame is lowered. Because the guide rail is in an inclined state, the guide rail drives the soft brush to press the product tightly. Cooperating with the two installation blocks at the bottom, it can also press and limit the products in the other row. Therefore, it can effectively prevent the products from shaking and being damaged during transportation, and can improve the utilization rate of the material rack by placing multiple rows.
[0021] Among them, two baffles 19 are fixed on the top of the base 1. The left baffle 19 is located at the leftmost side of the top of the bottom plate 1, and the right baffle 19 is located between the two installation blocks 17 on the left side of the bottom and the two installation blocks 17 on the right side. The baffle can play a role in limiting the bottom of the product. Cooperating with the installation blocks above, it can prevent the product from shaking left and right. Therefore, the baffle can effectively improve the stability of product placement.
[0022] At the same time, a U-shaped piece 18 that extends into the Y-shaped groove and is in contact with the groove wall is fixed on the installation block 17. The U-shaped piece can provide additional strength, especially reducing deformation when bearing external forces. Cooperating with one side of the Y-shaped groove of the installation block, it can improve the clamping strength of the product, thereby improving the firmness of placement and also improving the stability.
[0023] Such as Figure 1 and 2, two side plates 7 are fixed to the left side wall of the upper frame 4. Gas springs 8 that are hinged together with the lifting frame 9 are hinged to both the two side plates 7 and the right side wall of the upper frame 4. When the screws at the hinge of the lifting frame are loosened, the self-weight of the lifting frame will drop, so that the soft brush presses on the product for limiting, improving the stability of the product. During the dropping process, the gas spring will play a buffering role to prevent the lifting frame from dropping too fast and causing the guide rail to collide with the product and damage the product.
[0024] Among them, two inclined right plates 15 are fixed to the rear side wall of the upper frame 4. A bolt 16 that can be attached to the lifting frame 9 is threadedly connected to the right plate 15. Left plates 14 are fixed to the side of the left lifting frame 9 and the top of the right guide rail 10. By rotating the bolt, the protruding length of the bolt can be adjusted. The bolt contacts the lifting frame, so as to finely adjust the contact between the lowering lifting frame and the product through the soft brush. At the same time, when the lifting frame is retracted, it can also be limited by the contact between the left plate and the upper frame.
[0025] In addition, positioning plates 5 are fixed to the left and right side walls of the upper frame 4. A hole block 13 is fixed to the guide rail 10. A locking pin 6 that can pass through the hole block 13 is threadedly connected to the positioning plate 5. When not in use, when the lifting frame is retracted by the handle, the hole block and the positioning plate are stacked, and the hole of the hole block is opposite to the locking pin. Then, the locking pin is tightened to extend through the hole block to the upper side, so as to limit the lifting frame.
[0026] At the same time, support rods 2 are fixed to the four corners of the bottom of the base 1. A support block 3 is fixed between the support rod 2 and the base 1. The base is supported by the support rod, leaving a certain space between the base and the ground. The support block improves the firmness of the support of the support rod, thus facilitating the transportation by the AGV and improving the production efficiency.
[0027] The working principle of the above embodiment is as follows:
[0028] By placing the products on the two groups of mounting blocks for sorting and arranging, and cooperating with the baffle and the upper mounting blocks, preliminary left and right limiting can be achieved. Then, by loosening the locking pin and pushing the lifting frame, under the self-weight of the lifting frame, it will automatically lower. During the lowering process, the gas spring plays a buffering role to prevent the guide rail from colliding with the product and being damaged. At the same time, the right plate and the bolt limit the lowering lifting frame, so that the soft brush and the upper plate just contact the product closely. Lock the hinge of the lifting frame, so as to press and limit the product. Cooperating with the mounting blocks and the baffle can effectively improve the firmness of the product and the stability during the conveying process. At the same time, the products can be arranged in two groups by multiple mounting blocks, so as to fully improve the utilization rate of the rack.
