Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of flow bars used in workshop material racks, and particularly relates to an ultra-thin flow bar. Background Technique
[0002] A flow bar is short for an aluminum alloy slide rail. Because it is convenient and fast to install, and the items placed on it run smoothly, it is called a flow bar as the name implies. It is mostly used in workshop material racks and the like. In recent years, with the in-depth development of the lean production mode, plastic product flow bars have emerged in order to reduce costs.
[0003] Generally, a flow bar is composed of a profiled steel and a roller slideway to form a supporting special shelf, which is widely used in the assembly production line of a factory and the sorting area of a logistics distribution center. In particular, it can be combined with a digital sorting system to greatly improve the sorting and distribution efficiency of materials and reduce errors.
[0004] A flow bar shelf is composed of a flow bar and a support frame. In order to improve the conveying and storage efficiency, during the installation process, the flow bar and the support are inclined at an angle of 3%, so that the goods can achieve the effect of first-in, first-out and automatic sliding depending on their own weight.
[0005] However, for the existing flow bars, installation teeth are usually provided on both sides and the bottom surface, so that they can be fixedly installed through the bottom or both side surfaces. Although the number of installation teeth is large and the positions are extensive, enabling installation in multiple directions, this also results in a relatively thick thickness of the existing flow bar products, and the bottom is uneven, making it inconvenient to install in a use scenario with a small space. Moreover, the use scenarios of the installation teeth on both sides are very few, but instead, the thickness of the product cannot be reduced due to the existence of the installation teeth.
[0006] Therefore, during the use of the working platform made of modern lean tubes, it is necessary to utilize the industry characteristics of lean tubes to develop an ultra-thin flow bar, so as to reduce its thickness and make it suitable for use scenarios with a small space.

[0014] As a further solution of the present utility model: A limiting strip is provided on the bottom surface of the adapter base close to the roller bracket, a strip-shaped groove is provided at the position of the roller bracket corresponding to the limiting strip, and the strip-shaped groove is sleeved on the limiting strip, so that the limiting strip and the strip-shaped groove cooperate with each other to form a sliding connection, and the roller bracket can slide into the adapter base.
[0015] As a further solution of the present utility model: A dovetail joint is provided at the lower part of the adapter base far from the roller bracket, and the dovetail joint is used to install the flow bar on an external operation platform.

[0017] As a further solution of the present utility model: A baffle is further provided on one side of the adapter base, and the baffle is fixedly connected to the adapter base and is used to block and guide external materials.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are:
[0019] 1. By setting limit grooves on both sides of the track assembly and using the shaft protrusions at both ends of the roller to pass through the inside of the limit grooves, the overall height of the roller assembly is reduced, the overall thickness of the flow strip is decreased, forming an ultra-thin flow strip, which is suitable for use scenarios with small spaces.
[0020] 2. A transfer base and a roller bracket are also provided on the track assembly, and by setting C-shaped grooves on both sides of the transfer base, the roller bracket can be embedded into the inside of the C-shaped grooves by using the L-shaped side walls on both sides, which can not only limit the roller bracket but also use the top wall of the C-shaped groove to seal the limit groove to prevent the roller from jumping out of the limit groove during operation.

Detailed implementation manners
[0034] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be described clearly and completely. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0035] Please refer to Figures 1 to 7 , in the embodiment of the present utility model, a super-thin flow bar includes a track assembly 10 and a roller assembly 40. The roller assembly 40 is provided with at least two rollers 41. The two ends of the roller 41 are respectively rotatably connected to the track assembly 10, and the outer side wall of the roller 41 protrudes from the top surface of the track assembly 10 by a certain part, so that the roller assembly 40 supports the external material 51 to slide along the track assembly 10. At least two groups of limit grooves 11 are provided on both sides of the track assembly 10. Rotating shaft protrusions 42 are respectively provided at the two ends of the roller 41. The rotating shaft protrusions 42 pass through the limit grooves 11 and form a rotating connection with the limit grooves 11.
[0036] Specifically, there are already similar aluminum alloy slide rail products like flow bars on the market in this industry, which are used in places such as shelves, conveyor belts, production lines, and logistics areas. Usually, the existing flow bar products have three groups of installation lugs at the bottom and on both sides, so that they can be conveniently fixed on external equipment or devices. However, the current products have defects. For example, the overall flow bar products are relatively thick, and the bottom is uneven, and it is not convenient to be used in scenarios with a small space. In addition, the installation lugs on both sides have very few usage scenarios, but instead result in a thicker product or a higher overall product, especially it is not convenient to be installed on the operating platform 50 assembled by small lean pipes.
[0037] In addition, the spacing between the rollers of traditional flow bar products is relatively large. When the bottom of the external material box 51 is uneven, it is prone to tilting or jamming, resulting in static stop and requiring manual maintenance. In the ultra-thin flow bar of the embodiment of the present utility model, rollers 41 with a smaller diameter are used for installation, and the spacing between the rollers 41 is very small, with better sliding performance, which can prevent the material box 51 from getting stuck and effectively solve such problems.
[0038] As Figures 2 to 5 shown, preferably, the track assembly 10 is provided with an adapter base 30 and a roller bracket 20. The roller bracket 20 is detachably fixed to the adapter base 30. The adapter base 30 is used to install the flow bar on the external operation platform 50, and the roller bracket 20 is used to support the roller assembly 40. The limit grooves 11 are opened on both sides of the roller bracket 20, so that the roller bracket 20 forms a limit operation on the rotation of the roller 41 through the limit grooves 11.
[0039] Specifically, the roller bracket 20 can not only support the roller assembly 40, but also perform a limit operation on it to prevent it from running off during the rotation process. The adapter base 30 can be provided with a certain sinking space, so that the roller bracket 20 can be installed in the sinking space, further reducing the overall thickness of the flow bar, making it form an ultra-thin structure, which is more suitable for use in scenarios with a small space, especially suitable for corresponding operations on the operation platform 50 assembled by the third-generation lean pipes. For example, its main application scenarios include: sliding supply of materials 51, sliding of tooling plates, sliding of logistics boxes, etc.
[0040] As Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, preferably, the limit groove 11 is a U-shaped groove, so as to reduce the contact area between the shaft protrusion 42 and the limit groove 11.
[0041] Specifically, the circular side wall 21 equivalent to the shaft protrusion 42 is tangent to the plate-shaped side wall of the limit groove 11, so as to form a line contact, reduce the contact area, and further reduce the friction force, making the rotation of the roller 41 in the limit groove 11 smoother. Of course, bearings can also be installed inside the U-shaped groove, and the shaft protrusion 42 is passed through the inner ring of the bearing to form a rolling connection. However, the cost of the bearings is relatively high. Therefore, in ordinary use scenarios, it is preferably to directly set the U-shaped groove, and use the relatively small contact area between the U-shaped groove and the shaft protrusion 42 to reduce the friction force.
[0042] As Figures 3 to 5As shown, preferably, C-shaped grooves 31 are respectively provided on both sides of the adapter base 30, L-shaped side walls 21 are respectively provided on both sides of the roller bracket 20, and the L-shaped side walls 21 can be embedded into the C-shaped grooves 31 to form a detachable fixed connection; the limiting groove 11 is opened on the L-shaped side wall 21, so that the top wall of the C-shaped groove 31 can seal the opening of the limiting groove 11.
[0043] Specifically, in order to install and fix the roller bracket 20, preferably, C-shaped grooves 31 are provided on both sides of the inward sunken space of the adapter base 30, so that the side walls of the roller bracket 20 can be embedded into the C-shaped grooves 31 to form a limiting connection. In particular, the top of the C-shaped groove 31 can be used to block the top opening of the limiting groove 11 to prevent the roller 41 from jumping out of the limiting groove 11 during operation.
[0044] As Figure 5 shown, preferably, a limiting strip 32 is provided on the bottom surface of the adapter base 30 close to the roller bracket 20, a strip-shaped groove 22 is provided at the position of the roller bracket 20 corresponding to the limiting strip 32, and the strip-shaped groove 22 is sleeved on the limiting strip 32, so that the limiting strip 32 and the strip-shaped groove 22 cooperate with each other to form a sliding connection, and the roller bracket 20 can slide into the adapter base 30.
[0045] Specifically, since the roller bracket 20 is embedded in the sunken space of the adapter base 30, during installation, the roller bracket 20 can be pushed inward from the two ends of the sunken space of the adapter base 30 to slide into the sunken space. In order to prevent the roller bracket 20 from shaking in the sunken space and also to guide the roller bracket 20, corresponding limiting strips 32 and strip-shaped grooves 22 can be provided, so that the roller bracket 20 can be more smoothly pushed into the sunken space.
[0046] As Figure 1 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown, preferably, a dovetail joint 33 is provided at the lower part of the adapter base 30 away from the roller bracket 20, and the dovetail joint 33 is used to install the flow bar on the external operation platform 50. The bottom surface of the dovetail joint 33 is flush with the bottom surfaces of both sides of the adapter base 30.
[0047] Specifically, in order to reduce the thickness of the adapter base 30, preferably, only the dovetail joint 33 is provided at the bottom, and no dovetail joint 33 is provided on both sides, so as to form an ultra-thin track assembly 10, which can be combined to form an ultra-thin flow bar. The bottom surface of the dovetail joint 33 is flush with the bottom surfaces of both sides of the adapter base 30, so that the bottom of the adapter base 30 can be in the same plane, which is convenient for installation on other external operation platforms 50.
[0048] Secondly, in particular, the dovetail joint 33 can be configured to be recessed into the interior of the adapter base 30, with the bottom surface of the dovetail joint 33 flush with the bottom surfaces of both sides of the adapter base 30, thereby further reducing the thickness of the adapter base 30 and the overall thickness of the flow strip. This also allows the bottom of the adapter base 30 to remain flush, making it easier to place on other platforms for use.
[0049] like Figures 4 to 6 As shown, preferably, covers 34 are provided at both ends of the adapter base 30 , and the covers 34 are fixed to both ends of the adapter base 30 by bolts, and form a limiting operation for the roller bracket 20 .
[0050] Specifically, the provision of the cover 34 can prevent the roller bracket 20 from sliding off from both ends. It is understood that the cover 34 can be connected by bolts. For example, corresponding threaded holes are provided on the ends of the adapter base 30, corresponding through holes are provided on the cover 34, and then the cover 34 is fixed to the ends of the adapter base 30 using bolts.
[0051] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, preferably, a baffle 35 is further provided on one side of the adapter base 30 , and the baffle 35 is fixed to the adapter base 30 for blocking and guiding external materials 51 .
[0052] Specifically, in some tilted usage scenarios where the material 51 is prone to deviation, a baffle 35 can be provided on one or both sides of the adapter base 30 to block and guide the external material 51, preventing the material 51 from falling off the flow strip after deviation. The side baffle 35 can effectively prevent the product from sliding out and serve as a limiter.
[0053] When using, such as Figure 7 As shown, when the ultra-thin fluent strips are assembled and installed on the working platform 50, one set of ultra-thin fluent strips can be used alone for the operation, or several sets of ultra-thin fluent strips can be combined in parallel for use in the operation.
[0054] One set of ultra-thin fluent strips has a limited width, and can smoothly move materials 51 of a corresponding width. For wider materials 51, several sets of ultra-thin fluent strips can be combined to form a wider fluent rack, thereby moving the wider materials 51.
[0055] For example, ultra-thin flow strips with baffles 35 can be set on both sides of the flow rack, and ultra-thin flow strips without baffles 35 can be added in the middle part, so that baffles 35 are formed on both sides to block and limit the material 51.
[0056] For those skilled in the art, it is obvious that the present utility model is not limited to the details of the above-described exemplary embodiments, and the present utility model can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic characteristics of the present utility model. Therefore, from any point of view, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-limiting. The scope of the present utility model is defined by the appended claims rather than the above description. Therefore, all changes falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims are intended to be embraced within the present utility model.
