[0013] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the present application is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0014] In order to solve the problem in the related art that the material box bracket cannot be adjusted after installation, the present application provides a material box bracket device.
[0015] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 The material box bracket device shown includes a mounting member 10, multiple connecting rods, multiple universal joints 30 and a material box 40. The mounting member 10 is used to be installed on an external component; the connecting rods are connected in sequence, and the axes of at least two connected connecting rods are set at an angle; a universal joint 30 is set between the two connected connecting rods, and the two connected connecting rods are adjustably connected through the universal joint 30; the material box 40 is connected to the connecting rod.
[0016] In this embodiment, a universal joint 30 is provided between the connecting rods, thereby enabling the relative positions of the connecting rods to be adjusted via the universal joint 30, thereby enabling the position of the material box 40 to be adjusted. Specifically, during installation, the material box bracket device is fixed to an external fixed platform or other component via the mounting member 10. The relative positions of the connecting rods can then be adjusted via the movable connecting rods, thereby enabling the material box 40 located at the end of the connecting rod to be adjusted together. Once the material box 40 is adjusted to the desired angle, the universal joint 30 can maintain this position under its own action, thereby allowing the material box 40 to be adjusted and maintained in the desired position. When the position of the material box 40 needs to be adjusted again, there is no need to remove the mounting member 10; only the material box 40 needs to be moved, which is convenient and quick. The above-mentioned setting method enables the material box 40 to have multiple adjustment functions such as height and angle, which improves the versatility and applicability of the device. In terms of height, the height of the material box 40 can be easily changed by adjusting the connecting rod to adapt to material boxes 40 of different heights and the usage needs of operators. In terms of angle, the material box 40 can be adjusted within a certain range to facilitate the operator to take and place materials. The overall operation is simple and convenient, which can greatly improve the work efficiency of the operator.
[0017] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, all two connected connecting rods are arranged at an angle. In other words, any two interconnected connecting rods are arranged at an angle, thereby extending the adjustment range of the rod assembly formed by the connecting rods, fully utilizing the adjustment freedom between the connecting rods, improving the adjustable range and smoothness of the material box 40, and improving its adaptability to different usage requirements.
[0018] Preferably, all two connected connecting rods are arranged vertically, so as to maximize the adjustable range of the material box 40 based on a certain number of connecting rods. Of course, it is also possible to adopt a form in which some connecting rods are arranged vertically and other connecting rods are connected at non-90 degrees and non-0 degrees.
[0019] It should be noted that the connecting rods of this embodiment are straight-line equal-diameter round rods. Of course, the specific shapes of the connecting rods and the specific connection forms between them can also be adjusted as needed. For example, the connecting rods can also be L-shaped, U-shaped, etc. In this case, the connection position relationship between the connecting rod and other connecting rods can be adjusted accordingly.
[0020] In this embodiment, it is taken that there are five connecting rods. Specifically, the connecting rods include a first connecting rod 21, a second connecting rod 22, a third connecting rod 23, a fourth connecting rod 24, and a fifth connecting rod 25 that are sequentially connected at an angle. Among them, the first connecting rod 21 is connected to the mounting member 10, and the fifth connecting rod 25 is connected to the material box 40. The first connecting rod 21, the second connecting rod 22, the third connecting rod 23, the fourth connecting rod 24, and the fifth connecting rod 25 are sequentially and perpendicularly connected. Of course, the number and arrangement of the above-mentioned connecting rods can be adjusted.
[0021] The first connecting rod 21 and the fifth connecting rod 25 of this embodiment are located on the same side of the circumferential direction of the third connecting rod 23. Specifically, the second connecting rod 22 and the fourth connecting rod 24 are respectively located at both ends of the third connecting rod 23 and on the same side of the third connecting rod 23, so that the second connecting rod 22, the third connecting rod 23, and the fourth connecting rod 24 form a U-shaped structure, and the first connecting rod 21 and the fifth connecting rod 25 are respectively located at both ends of the U-shaped structure, so that the first connecting rod 21 and the fifth connecting rod 25 can be located on the same side of the circumferential direction of the third connecting rod 23. In this way, the first connecting rod 21 and the fifth connecting rod 25 are generally aligned in the horizontal direction. Since the mounting member 10 and the material box 40 are mounted on the first connecting rod 21 and the fifth connecting rod 25, the mounting member 10 and the material box 40 are generally horizontally aligned, which is convenient for personnel to roughly judge the middle position of the material box 40 according to the position of the mounting member 10 during installation, so that the adjustment range of the material box 40 can cover the required positions as much as possible, ensuring the adaptability to position adjustment.
[0022] Based on the form of the aforementioned five connecting rods, this embodiment is provided with a total of four universal joints 30, so that the material box 40 can be adjusted within a range of 1440°.
[0023] Optionally, in addition to the universal joints 30 being provided between the connecting rods, universal joints 30 can also be provided between the connecting rod and the material box 40. In this way, the position of the material box 40 relative to the fifth connecting rod 25 can also be adjusted, thereby further increasing the number of adjustable positions of the material box 40 and further improving the adaptability. When no universal joint 30 is provided between the connecting rod and the material box 40, a connecting member such as a bolt can be used to connect the connecting rod and the material box 40.
[0024] Such as Figure 2As shown, the universal joint 30 of this embodiment includes a first connecting portion 31, a second connecting portion 32, and a sphere 33. The first connecting portion 31 of this embodiment has a spherical or partially spherical structure, so that the circumferential side surface of the first connecting portion 31 is an arcuate surface, and the middle portion of the second connecting portion 32 has a cavity. The spherical portion of the first connecting portion 31 can be accommodated in the cavity, so that at least a portion of the second connecting portion 32 can be sleeved outside the arcuate surface. Due to the form of the arcuate surface, the second connecting portion 32 can rotate within a range of approximately 360 degrees in space relative to the first connecting portion 31, thereby realizing that the two components connected to the universal joint 30, such as the two connecting rods, can rotate within a range of 360 degrees in space, thereby realizing an adjustable fit. In order to ensure the smoothness of rotation between the first connection part 31 and the second connection part 32, in this embodiment, the sphere 33 is arranged between the arc surface and the inner wall surface of the second connection part 32, and the sphere 33 is in contact with the arc surface and the inner wall surface of the second connection part 32. In this way, the relative movement between the first connection part 31 and the second connection part 32 will be carried out through the sphere 33. Due to the shape characteristics of the sphere 33, the second connection part 32 can be adjusted relative to the first connection part 31 more smoothly.
[0025] In order to ensure stable and reliable cooperation between the ball 33 and the first connecting part 31 and the second connecting part 32, this embodiment provides a plurality of grooves 311 on the arc surface, the grooves 311 extend along the axial direction of the first connecting part 31, and the grooves 311 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the first connecting part 31. Accordingly, there are multiple balls 33, and at least one ball 33 is provided in each groove 311. In this embodiment, only one ball 33 is provided in each groove 311, so that the second connecting part 32 cooperates with the groove 311 through the corresponding ball 33. Due to the setting of the groove 311, the ball 33 can only move and rotate in the groove 311 along the extension direction of the groove 311, so that the position of the ball 33 is stable, and the rotation between the first connecting part 31 and the second connecting part 32 is more stable.
[0026] In this embodiment, the second connection portion 32 has a plurality of protruding arms 321. The protruding arms 321 are arcuate and located outside the groove 311. All protruding arms 321 are spaced apart along the circumference of the first connection portion 31, and their shapes substantially correspond to the shape of the arcuate surface. This forms a mounting area between the protruding arms 321, which is the aforementioned cavity. The first connection portion 31 is located within the mounting area, the protruding arms 321 are located outside the groove 311, and the spheres 33 are located between the protruding arms 321 and the groove 311, movably engaging with both the protruding arms 321 and the groove 311. This allows the second connection portion 32 to be universally adjustable relative to the first connection portion 31 via the spheres 33. This embodiment employs a one-to-one correspondence between the protruding arms 321, the groove 311, and the spheres 33. That is, each groove 311 is provided with a sphere 33, and each groove 311 is provided with an protruding arm 321 outside. This ensures more stable rotational engagement between the first and second connection portions 31 and 32.
[0027] The second connecting portion 32 of this embodiment also includes a second connecting section. The protruding arms 321 intersect at a point, and one end of the second connecting section is connected to this point. The second connecting section serves as an external connection, allowing the second connecting portion 32 to be connected to components such as the connecting rod and the material box 40 through the second connecting section. Similarly, the first connecting portion 31 also includes a first connecting section. Overall, the first connecting portion 31 includes a large diameter section and a small diameter section connected in sequence axially. The large diameter section is a partially spherical structure with an arc-shaped circumferential side surface. The small diameter section serves as the first connecting section and has a smaller diameter than the large diameter section. This allows the first connecting portion 31 to be externally connected through the first connecting section, achieving the effect of connecting to components such as the connecting rod and the material box 40.
[0028] Alternatively, a separate connecting rod may be provided in a fixed length configuration or in an adjustable length configuration, i.e., the length of the connecting rod itself may be fixed or adjustable. Different connecting rods may adopt the above-mentioned different configurations as needed. For example, the first connecting rod 21 and the second connecting rod 22 may be provided in a fixed length configuration, while the third connecting rod 23 may be provided in an adjustable length configuration. When the connecting rod is provided in an adjustable length configuration, the connecting rod may include a first segment and a second segment connected in sequence, wherein the first segment and the second segment are connected in an axially aligned manner, and the first segment and the second segment are provided in a telescopic manner. For example, the first segment may be provided in a telescopic manner within the second segment, and the second segment may be provided on the outer circumference of the first segment, so that the relative position between the first segment and the second segment can be adjusted, thereby adjusting the length of the connecting rod. Of course, in addition to the telescopic configuration, the adjustable length configuration may also adopt a threaded configuration, wherein the length between the first segment and the second segment is adjusted by rotating the thread.
[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the mounting member 10 includes a connecting plate 11 and a locking sleeve 12. The connecting plate 11 is connected to the external component. The connecting plate 11 can be provided with connecting structures such as mounting holes and mounting columns as needed. The locking sleeve 12 is provided between the connecting plate 11 and the first connecting rod 21. The connecting plate 11 is connected to the first connecting rod 21 through the locking sleeve 12, thereby achieving the installation of the connecting rod on the connecting plate 11, and then achieving the installation and fixation on the external device or platform. Taking the example of the connecting plate 11 being installed and fixed horizontally on the lower surface of the device, initially, the first connecting part 31 and the second connecting part 32 of the universal joint 30 are axially aligned. At this time, the connecting plate 11 is arranged horizontally, the first connecting rod 21 is arranged longitudinally, the second connecting rod 22, the third connecting rod 23, and the fourth connecting rod 24 are all arranged horizontally, and the fifth connecting rod 25 is arranged at an angle. Of course, based on the specific installation position, the above-mentioned setting form can also be adjusted accordingly and is not limited to the setting method given in this embodiment.
[0030] Optionally, the connecting rods can be connected in a detachable manner, and the connecting rods can be provided with spare parts. Each spare part can be provided corresponding to each connecting rod. For example, the first connecting rod 21 can be provided with one or more first spare parts. The form of the first spare part is basically the same as the first connecting rod 21. The main difference between the two is the length. The length of each first spare part may not be exactly the same, so that when assembling the material box bracket device, connecting rods and spare parts of different lengths can be selected according to different needs, so that the length of the connecting rod during installation can be adjusted, further improving the adaptability to range adjustment.
[0031] Similarly, multiple material boxes 40 can also be provided, and the sizes of the material boxes 40 can be set to different forms, so that when assembling the material box bracket device, different sizes of material boxes 40 can be selected for assembly and use according to different needs, so that the size of the material box 40 meets the specific usage scenario requirements.
[0032] The material box support device of this embodiment has the advantages of versatility, strong adjustability, good stability, and convenient operation. Specifically, versatility: the material box support device of this embodiment can adapt to material boxes 40 of different sizes and shapes, and has various adjustment functions such as height and angle, which improves the versatility and applicability of the device. It can be flexibly arranged according to actual work scenarios, such as for use on production lines, warehouse shelves, etc. Strong adjustability: Height adjustment can easily change the height of the material box 40 to adapt to material boxes 40 of different heights and the usage requirements of operators; angle adjustment: the material box 40 can be adjusted within a certain range to facilitate the operator to pick up and place materials. Good stability: The connecting rod is made of high-strength metal material, and the structure adopts an anti-slip design to ensure that the device is stable and reliable during use. Convenient operation: The material box support device of this embodiment is rationally designed, simple and convenient to operate, and can greatly improve the work efficiency of the operator.
[0033] It should be noted that, in the above embodiments, a plurality refers to at least two.
[0034] From the above description, it can be seen that the above embodiments of the present invention achieve the following technical effects:
[0035] 1. Solved the problem in the related art that the material box bracket cannot be adjusted after installation;
[0036] 2. The material box has multiple adjustment functions such as height and angle, which improves the versatility and applicability of the device;
