[0007] The linkage bracket includes a movable support plate rotatably arranged on the column, a counterweight hammer fixedly arranged at one end of the movable support plate, and a linkage rod arranged at one end of the counterweight hammer. The column is penetrated by a mounting slot for the movable support plate to rotate, and the counterweight hammer is located outside the side wall of the column. There are multiple movable support plates and they are spaced apart along the vertical direction of the column. The end of the movable support plate away from the counterweight hammer is for placing materials.

[0008] The two ends of the connecting rod are respectively connected to the counterweight hammer, and the bottom end of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to the counterweight hammer, and the top end of the connecting rod is slidably connected to the counterweight hammer;

[0009] A limiting piece for limiting the rotation angle of the movable support plate is provided at the bottom of the column. When no material is stored, one end of the movable support plate close to the limiting piece always extends out of the column, and the other end of the movable support plate away from the counterweight hammer is located in the installation groove.

[0010] Preferably, the limiting member is a limiting rod arranged in the column, and the limiting rod is located in the installation groove; the movable support plate includes a first rocker plate and a second rocker plate for connecting the counterweight hammer, and the limiting rod is located below the first rocker plate, and the limiting rod is in contact with the first rocker plate.

When the material is placed on the movable tray at the bottom layer, the gravity of the material will drive the movable tray on the upper layer to rotate outward through the linkage rod, so that the movable tray on the second layer can be flattened and the material can be placed on the movable tray on the second layer. At the same time, the movable tray on the upper layer is linked again, and the cycle is repeated. Multiple materials are stacked and stored from bottom to top, thereby improving the utilization rate of storage space, and a certain distance is left between adjacent materials to facilitate the matching robot to pick up;

[0019] 2. The linkage bracket uses the gravity principle and is linked with supporting components such as linkage rods and counterweight hammers to effectively ensure that after the material is placed, the movable pallet above the material is always located in the column, thereby avoiding interference problems when taking out the materials from the lower layer.

By providing the linkage bracket 4, the storage and retrieval of materials on each layer do not affect each other.

[0028] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 Specifically, this application takes four columns 3 as an example. The four columns 3 roughly form a rectangular frame structure on the base 1 to store materials (PACK shell). A limiting component 5 is provided between the base 1 and the support frame 2 to prevent the material from jumping when transporting the material. The limiting component 5 includes a rotating rod 51 rotatably connected to the base 1 and a limiting rod 52 installed at intervals on the rotating rod 51. When storing materials, the limiting rod 52 is always located above the material. A guide nylon plate 31 is installed on the side of the column 3 close to the material to protect the material. The column 3 is penetrated by a mounting groove 32 for the installation of the linkage bracket 4.

[0029] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4The linkage bracket 4 includes a movable support plate 41 rotatably connected to the mounting slot 32, a counterweight 42 fixedly connected to one end of the movable support plate 41, and a linkage rod 43 detachably connected to one end of the counterweight 42. Among them, there are three movable support plates 41 located on the same column 3, and they are spaced apart along the vertical direction of the column 3. The movable support plate 41 includes a first seesaw plate 411 for placing materials, a second seesaw plate 412 fixedly connected to one end of the first seesaw plate 411, and an end of the second seesaw plate 412 away from the first seesaw plate 411 is fixedly connected to the counterweight 42, and the counterweight 42 is always located outside the side wall of the column 3. A protective sleeve 6 is installed on the end of the first seesaw plate 411 away from the second seesaw plate 412. The protective sleeve 6 is made of silicone or rubber material and has a certain elasticity for contact with materials for buffering and protection.

[0030] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 Furthermore, three fixing bolts 7 are installed in the mounting groove 32 of the column 3. The three fixing bolts 7 are evenly spaced along the vertical direction of the column 3 and are located on the same vertical line. In addition, a rotating cylinder 71 is coaxially sleeved on the fixing bolts 7 to securely connect the first rocker 411 and the second rocker 412.

[0031] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 There are three counterweights 42 located on the same column 3, and they are spaced apart along the vertical direction of the column 3. The two ends of the connecting rod 43 are detachably connected to the counterweight 42 by bolts, the bottom end of the connecting rod 43 is fixedly connected to the counterweight 42, and the top end of the connecting rod 43 is slidably connected to the counterweight 42. An adjustment slot 431 passes through the top end of the connecting rod 43 for the bolt to slide in. The length of the adjustment slot 431 is set along a direction parallel to the length of the connecting rod 43. There are two connecting rods 43 located on the same column 3, and the adjacent connecting rods 43 are not in the same vertical direction.

[0032] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 Furthermore, a stopper is provided at the bottom of the column 3 to limit the rotation angle of the bottommost movable support plate 41. This stopper is a stopper rod 8 mounted within the column 3 and fully accommodated within the mounting slot 32. The stopper rod 8 is located below the first rocker plate 411 and abuts against it. When no material is stored, the first rocker plate 411 located near the stopper rod 8 remains extended from the column 3, while the first rockers 411 on the other movable support plates 41 remain within the mounting slot 32.

[0033] The implementation principle of a PACK shell stacking column mechanism in the embodiment of the present application is as follows:

[0034] A counterweight hammer 42 is designed at the linkage bracket 4, and a gravity-type reset method is adopted. When the material is placed on the movable pallet 41 at the bottom layer, the gravity of the material will drive the movable pallet 41 on the upper layer to rotate outward through the linkage rod 43, so that the movable pallet 41 on the second layer can be flattened, and the material can be placed on the movable pallet 41 on the second layer. At the same time, the movable pallet 41 on the upper layer is linked again, and the cycle is repeated. Multiple materials are stacked and stored in sequence from bottom to top, thereby improving the utilization rate of the storage space, and a certain distance is left between adjacent materials to facilitate the matching robot to grab.

[0035] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
