Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of storage or transportation protection, and more specifically, relates to a modular adjustment device capable of flexibly dividing space. Background Art

[0002] Billet transporters are typically used to transfer billets between different sections of a steel mill. Basic operation involves the transporter arriving at a designated location, using a crane to lift the hot or room-temperature billets onto the transporter's platform. The billets are then transported to another section of the mill for further processing into various steel products. To prevent the billets from falling off the transporter during transfer, a protective frame on the platform is often required. Existing protective frames typically consist of a crossbeam welded to two columns at each end, which prevents movement between the columns. When loading steel, gaps often exist between the steel and the columns. During travel, due to uneven road conditions or frequent turns, steel (especially steel plates, which vary greatly in length and width, are a wide variety, and are prone to sideways slippage) can easily shift sideways and fall to the ground, damaging the cargo and posing a serious safety hazard. Furthermore, the platform frequently impacts the columns, accelerating wear and affecting their protective performance.

[0003] A search revealed that patent CN204453281U discloses a rotating column-type transport rack. This includes a transport rack assembly, wherein the bottom of the transport rack assembly is provided with a base, one end of the base is connected to a fixed column, the other end of the fixed column defines a hollow channel, one side of the hollow channel defines a sliding slot, a rotating column is provided within the hollow channel, and one end of the rotating column is connected to a rotating shaft, which can slide within the sliding slot of the hollow channel. This application overcomes the shortcomings of transport racks with fixed column structures, such as low transport efficiency, large waste of storage space, and high transport costs. It meets practical needs, can save a significant amount of transport costs and time, and greatly facilitates the transport and storage of workpieces. Patent CN112319651A discloses a large billet hot transport vehicle device. This application uses a base plate plus column structure to prevent the billets from sliding during transport, and reinforces the outer sides of the vertical plates to ensure the impact resistance of the vertical plates. The above applications all involve technical improvements to transport racks, but none of them provide effective solutions to the problem of lateral impact caused by the loading gap between the cargo and the columns.

[0020] 3. Beneficial effects

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0022] (1) The utility model is a modular adjustment device that can flexibly divide space. A slide is provided on the connecting beam, which allows the spacing between the two protective brackets to be adjusted so that they are close to the two sides of the goods to be transported, eliminating the risk of the protective brackets being collided with by the lateral movement of the goods due to the existence of the loading gap, and ensuring the service life of the protective brackets. At the same time, through the setting of the mounting seat, the spacing between adjacent transport racks can also be adjusted, so that the goods can be limited from both ends to prevent the goods from moving forward and backward due to sudden braking or going up and down slopes, that is, the goods can be limited in four directions: front, back, left and right.

[0023] (2) The utility model is a modular adjustment device that can flexibly divide space. The connecting beam is composed of two oppositely arranged channel steels. The grooves of the channel steels themselves are used to form a slideway for the sliding part. It is not only convenient and quick to process, but also can reduce the weight of the connecting beam, thereby helping to increase the actual carrying capacity of the vehicle.

[0024] (3) The utility model is a modular adjustment device that can flexibly divide the space. When the height of the cargo is high, the protection height requirement can be met by adding an extension rod. When the protection height of the protection section can meet the requirement, the extension rod can be removed. On the one hand, it can prevent the interference with the loading and lifting of the cargo due to the excessive height of the extension rod; on the other hand, it is also conducive to reducing the overall dead weight of the transport rack.

[0025] (4) The utility model is a modular adjustment device that can flexibly divide the space. Through the setting of the pressure rod, it can limit the top of the cargo to prevent the cargo from jumping up and down when the vehicle is bumpy; at the same time, the protective space of the protective bracket can be divided into multiple layers through multiple pressure rods arranged up and down, so as to meet the transportation needs of some goods such as steel plates that cannot be squeezed against each other and have high surface quality requirements, that is, it can realize the six-way limitation of the cargo in front, back, left, right, up and down.

[0026] (5) The utility model provides a modular adjustment device that can flexibly divide the space. Through the flexible adjustment of the pressure rod, the protective space can be "arbitrarily" divided into the required size, and protective spaces of different sizes can be combined and used together. One vehicle can transport goods of different sizes at the same time, making full use of every inch of space and improving efficiency.

[0027] (6) The utility model provides a modular adjustment device that can flexibly divide space. It has a modular design and can be freely and flexibly combined according to the protection requirements of the goods. It can be quickly and conveniently disassembled and assembled, and can be reused. It is more low-carbon and environmentally friendly, and reduces costs. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0039] In order to further understand the content of the present invention, the present invention is described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0040] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "center," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicating positions or relationships, are based on the positions or relationships shown in the accompanying drawings and are intended solely to facilitate the description of this utility model and simplify the description. They do not indicate or imply that the devices or components referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed, or operate in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0041] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment of a modular adjustment device capable of flexibly dividing a space comprises a connecting beam 1, a mounting base 2, and a protective bracket 3. The mounting base 2 is disposed at both ends of the connecting beam 1 and is used to secure the connecting beam 1 to the vehicle deck and to allow for movement along the length of the deck. Furthermore, a slideway extending along the width of the deck is provided on the connecting beam 1, and two protective brackets 3 are disposed within the slideway in a manner that allows for relative sliding movement. The length direction herein refers to the vehicle's travel direction, while the width direction refers to the direction perpendicular to the travel direction in the horizontal plane.

[0043] refer to Figure 7 As shown, this embodiment of a modular adjustable device for flexible space division features multiple movable transport racks spaced along the length of the carriage plate. The spacing between two protective brackets 3 is adjusted based on the width of the cargo to be transported (for example, steel plates), ensuring that the protective brackets 3 contact and retain the corresponding side edges of the steel plate. This eliminates the risk of the protective brackets 3 being impacted by lateral cargo movement due to gaps in the loading area, thereby ensuring the service life of the protective brackets 3. Furthermore, the position of the movable transport racks at each end of the steel plate can be adjusted based on the length of the steel plate, allowing the sides of the protective brackets 3 to retain the plate, preventing cargo from moving forward or backward during sudden braking or uphill or downhill driving. Of course, once the protective brackets 3 are in place, they can be locked in place using locking members. For example, multiple mounting holes can be provided in the protective brackets 3 and the connecting beam 1, which are then secured using bolts or pins. It is worth noting that the detachable connections described below all employ this type of bolt / pin-to-mounted mounting hole arrangement; however, other conventional methods can also be employed.

[0044] In addition, it should be noted that the primary purpose of the movable transport rack in this embodiment is to eliminate loading gaps. Whether the protective bracket 3 contacts or presses the steel plate is not specifically defined and depends on actual transportation requirements. If the protective bracket 3 is required to press the steel plate, a protective layer such as a rubber pad or wooden board can be added at the contact point to protect the outer surface of the steel.

[0045] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 As shown, the protective bracket 3 includes a sliding section 31 and a protective section 32 that are interconnected. The sliding section 31 slides in the above-mentioned slideway, and the protective section 32 extends out of the slideway to perform contact limiting from the side and end faces of the steel plate. Preferably, when the bracket 3 is assembled with the connecting beam 1, the upper surface of the sliding section 31 is flush with the upper surface of the connecting beam 1, and the lower surface of the sliding section (31) is also flush with the lower surface of the connecting beam (1). This design, on the one hand, allows the sliding section 31 and the connecting beam 1 to be subjected to force at the same time; at the same time, the bottom of the sliding section 31 can be effectively supported, thereby optimizing the force condition of the connecting bolts.

[0046] The protective section 32 includes an upper part 321 and a lower part 322 that are connected to each other, and the width of the lower part 322 gradually increases from top to bottom. The width here refers to the distance of the projection of the protective section 32 in the length direction of the sliding section 31. By widening the lower part 322, it is equivalent to adding a reinforcing rib between the lower part 322 and the sliding section 31, which can further ensure the structural strength of the connection between the sliding section 31 and the protective section 32, thereby helping to improve the impact resistance. Among them, the protective bracket 3 as a whole can be designed to be L-shaped or T-shaped. The L-shape means that the ends of the sliding section 31 and the protective section 32 are flush with each other. The T-shape means that the end of the sliding section 31 extends a distance from the protective section 32. The T-shape design is conducive to improving the ability of the protective bracket 3 to resist left and right tipping. Preferably, the protective section 32 is arranged at one end away from the two sliding sections 31 to ensure the protective space between the two protective sections 32 as much as possible.

[0047] Furthermore, the connecting beam 1 is composed of two oppositely arranged channel steels, and the spacing between the two channel steels and the grooves of the channel steels together form the above-mentioned slideway. At the same time, an outwardly protruding sliding portion 33 is provided on each side of the sliding section 31 to snap into the groove of the corresponding channel steel. At the same time, in order to facilitate the rapid assembly operation between the connecting beam 1 and the protective bracket 3, the two channel steels can be pre-connected first to perform initial positioning of the two channel steels, such as welding or bolting; then, the sliding section 31 is snapped into the slideway from the end of the connecting beam 1, and after the sliding section 31 is moved into place, the two channel steels are locked with bolts to ensure the overall connection strength. It should be noted that the pre-connection position is based on not affecting the subsequent movement operation of the protective bracket 3. Preferably, the pre-connection position is located in the middle position of the connecting beam 1.

[0048] In this embodiment, the connecting beam 1 is composed of two oppositely arranged channel steels, and the grooves of the channel steels themselves are used to form a slideway for the sliding part 33 to slide. This is not only convenient and quick to process, but also can reduce the weight of the connecting beam 1, thereby helping to increase the actual carrying capacity of the vehicle.

[0049] like Figure 3 As shown, the mounting base 2 includes a connecting plate 21 and two clamping plates 22 disposed on the connecting plate 21. A retaining groove is formed between the two clamping plates 22 for the end of the connecting beam 1 to be clamped in. During assembly, the end of the connecting beam 1 is clamped into the retaining groove, and then the connecting beam 1 and the clamping plates 22 are locked together using bolts.

[0050] In order to optimize the stress between the connecting beam 1 and the card plate 22, a notch can be opened in the connecting plate 21. The end of the connecting beam 1 can be inserted into the notch to form a stress support point, which can jointly bear the weight of the goods to optimize the stress of the connecting bolts.

[0051] In addition, a limit block 23 is detachably connected to the bottom of the connecting plate 21. The limit block 23, the clamping plate 22, and the connecting plate 21 form a C-shaped clamping space. At the same time, the locking force between the limit blocks 23 and the clamping plate 22 arranged above and below can limit the horizontal and vertical movement of the connecting beam 1.

[0052] As another embodiment of the protective bracket 3 in this embodiment, refer to Figure 5 As shown, a vertical extension rod 4 is detachably connected to the protective section 32. This extension rod 4 is used to extend the protective height of the protective bracket 3. In this embodiment, the addition of the extension rod 4 can meet different protective height requirements. When the protective height of the protective section 32 meets the required requirements, the extension rod 4 can be removed. This not only prevents the extension rod 4 from interfering with cargo loading and lifting due to its excessive height, but also helps reduce the overall weight of the transport rack.

[0053] To further ensure the stability of the steel plate during transportation, a horizontal pressure rod 5 can be detachably connected to the protective section 32. The pressure rod 5 can be used to limit the top of the goods to be transported to prevent the goods from bouncing up and down when the vehicle is bumpy. Depending on the specific thickness of the loaded steel plate, the pressure rod 5 has two structural forms: long and short. Figure 5 As shown, the pressure rod 5 is a long pressure rod design, which is mainly suitable for transporting thinner steel plates (generally less than 8mm). On the one hand, it can limit the position of the steel plate from the top; on the other hand, the free ends of the long pressure rods on both sides extend as far as possible to the middle of the thin steel plate to prevent the thin steel plate from warping.

[0054] refer to Figure 6As shown, when the transported object is thick steel plates, thick steel plates are less prone to warping and deformation. Therefore, in order to further reduce the deadweight of the movable transport rack, a short pressure rod can be used. Preferably, the contact area between the short pressure rod and the thick steel plate can be arc-shaped to reduce contact wear on the surface of the thick steel plate. In addition, it is worth mentioning that the extension rod 4, the pressure rod 5 and the protective section 32 are all detachably connected. When the protective height of the protective section 32 meets the requirements, the extension rod 4 can be set horizontally to serve as the pressure rod 5.

[0055] refer to Figure 7 As shown, as another embodiment of the pressure rod 5, the pressure rod 5 is designed to be full-length, that is, the protective sections 32 on both sides share one pressure rod 5. At the same time, multiple pressure rods 5 can be provided along the height direction of the protective section 32. The advantage of this design is that the protective space of the protective bracket 3 can be divided into multiple layers by multiple pressure rods 5 distributed up and down, and steel plates can be placed separately in each divided space without stacking them on top of each other. Therefore, it can be suitable for the transportation needs of some goods such as steel plates that cannot be squeezed against each other and have high surface quality requirements. In order to further reduce the risk of damage to the steel surface, protective pads can be added to the upper and lower surfaces of the pressure rod 5.

[0056] This embodiment of a modular adjustable device with flexible space division effectively eliminates loading gaps through the movable arrangement of protective brackets 3 and connecting beams 1, significantly reducing the risk of lateral, vertical, and longitudinal movement of steel, thereby ensuring safe transportation. Furthermore, the movable transport rack of this embodiment utilizes fully bolted connections and a modular design, offering high versatility, reusability, and flexible assembly and disassembly.

[0057] The above is a schematic description of the present invention and its embodiments, which is not restrictive. The drawings show only one embodiment of the present invention, and the actual structure is not limited thereto. Therefore, if a person skilled in the art is inspired by this and, without departing from the inventive purpose of the present invention, designs a structure and embodiment similar to the technical solution without inventiveness, they shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
