[0021] To make the purpose and technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the described embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0022] Figure 2 The utility model provides an automatic connecting carrier for paper and plastic products. Figure 2As shown, the carrier 2 includes a body 21, a buckle 22, a supporting groove 23, a screw hole 24, and a weight-reducing hole 25. The buckle 22 is provided on one side of the body 21, the screw hole 24 is provided on the other side of the body 21, the supporting groove 23 is provided in the center of the body 21, and the weight-reducing hole 25 is provided between the supporting groove 23 and the buckle 22 and between the supporting groove 23 and the screw hole 24. The body 21 includes a first plane 211 and a second plane 212. The first plane 211 is located on the upper end surface of the body 21, and the second plane 212 is located on the lower end surface of the body 21.

[0023] Figure 3 for Figure 2 A cross-sectional view of Figure 2 As shown, the supporting groove 23 includes side walls 231, a bottom surface 232, a through hole 233, and at least one slot 234. The side walls 231 extend from the first plane 211 and are fixedly connected to the bottom surface 232 at an angle downward. The side walls 231 surround the four sides of the bottom surface 232. The through holes 233 are provided at any corner of the side walls 231, and the bottom surface 232 provides at least one slot 234. The side walls 231 are inclined, that is, the angle formed by the side walls 231 and the bottom surface 232 is greater than 90°. This design not only limits the position of the product and ensures the accuracy of subsequent product capture from the supporting groove 23, but also improves the compatibility of the carrier 2, increases the allowable error range when the product is dropped at a fixed point, and reduces the positioning requirements of the product within the allowable plane variation range. A small-diameter rounded structure 2311 is provided at the intersection of the side wall 231 and the first plane 211, and a chamfered structure 2312 is provided at the intersection of the side wall 231 and the bottom surface 232. The rounded structure 2311 and the chamfered structure 2312 prevent the sharp corners from causing resistance to the product or causing it to hang on the wall when the product falls into the carrier 2, effectively reducing the force required for the product to fall at a fixed point, making the connection process smoother. The through hole 233 is provided at any corner of the supporting groove 23, and the through hole 233 blocks the connection between any two different sides of the side walls 231, cancels the inner corner structure, and can prevent the product from hanging on the corners of the supporting groove 23 when it falls onto the carrier 2, so as to accommodate the error of the product falling on the carrier 2.

[0024] In addition, at least one slot 234 is provided on the bottom surface 232. The slot is a circular hole, but other shapes may be provided according to actual needs, such as circular, polygonal or irregular shapes. The slots 234 are arranged in a uniform and discontinuous manner. Compared with a design without holes, the provision of at least one slot 234 allows the space generated during the connection between the product and the supporting groove 23 to be communicated with the atmosphere, thereby avoiding the low-pressure area generated by squeezing the air. The external atmospheric pressure will press down on the product, resulting in a greater force required to separate the product and the carrier 2, thereby increasing energy loss and investment costs. Compared with a hollow design, the provision of at least one slot 234 on the bottom surface 232 can still limit the product in the vertical direction, thereby preventing the product from falling from the hollow part during the falling process. The accommodating space 235 formed by the bottom surface 232 and the side wall 231 is larger than the size of the product, wherein the side lengths of the bottom surface 232 are larger than the corresponding side lengths of the product, and the height of the side wall 231 is also larger than the height of the product. This design can ensure the grasping accuracy of the product in transportation environments with impact and vibration.

[0025] The weight-reducing hole 25 extends through the body 21 and is square in shape, but may also be configured in other shapes, such as circular, polygonal, or irregular shapes, as needed. The weight-reducing hole 25 is used to reduce the weight of the carrier 2, thereby meeting the weight limit requirements of the assembly line and reducing energy loss during transportation of the carrier 2.

[0026] Combine Figure 3 and Figure 2 As can be seen, the clip 22 is a wedge-shaped tooth-like structure protruding outward from the outer edge of the body 21, used for external connection to the mobile device and quick positioning. Accordingly, tightening the screws in the screw holes 24 and checking the preload at 1.3 times the force further ensures that the carrier 2 and the mobile device are accurately positioned and securely installed. When there are multiple carriers 2 that need to be installed, simply insert the carrier 2 diagonally into the corresponding slots of the mobile device and then tighten the screws to achieve a secure installation.

[0027] In order to ensure the neatness of the paper-plastic product, the peak value of the surface roughness of the contact surface between the carrier 2 and the product should be less than 3.2 μm.

[0028] Combine Figure 4 and Figure 5 It can be seen that when the product 26 falls into the supporting groove 23 , the corners of the product 26 are placed in the through hole 233 , which facilitates the separation of the product 26 and the supporting groove 23 . Figure 5 for Figure 4 The cross-section diagram of Figure 5As can be seen, the bottom surface 232 limits the vertical position of the product 26, while the side walls 231 limit the horizontal and vertical position of the product 26. The side lengths of the bottom surface 232 are greater than the corresponding side lengths of the product 26, and the height of the side walls 231 is also greater than the height of the product 26. This design ensures the gripping accuracy of the product 26 in transportation environments with impact and vibration, while also compensating for the error of the product 26 landing on the carrier 2.

[0029] In summary, the utility model provides an automatic docking carrier for paper and plastic products, which improves the compatibility of the carrier 2 by setting the angle formed by the side wall 231 and the bottom surface 232 to be greater than 90° and designing the upper edge and the lower edge of the side wall 231 as a rounded structure 2311 and a chamfered structure 2312; at least one slot 234 is opened on the bottom surface 232 to facilitate the grabbing of the product 26; and a through hole 233 is opened at any corner of the supporting groove 23 to prevent the product 26 from hanging on the corners when it falls at a fixed point.

[0030] Although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to the embodiments, they are not intended to limit the present invention. Anyone with ordinary skill in the art may make slight modifications and improvements without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be determined by the scope of the appended patent applications.
