Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of counter design, production and manufacturing technology, and in particular to a counter frame structure and a counter. Background Technology

[0002] Existing modular display cases typically utilize profile or timber structures to create the main frame, which is then combined with display panels of specific lengths to form the overall display case. While this structure allows for disassembly and reassembly, the lengths of the profile and timber structures are constant, resulting in a fixed size for the assembled display case. The dimensions of the display case cannot be altered to meet specific display needs.

[0003] Existing modular display cases typically feature a frame structure made of profiles or wood. To facilitate assembly, one side of the frame usually has a through slot, and the side of the other frame to be connected has a corresponding insert. Assembly is achieved by the interlocking of the slot and the insert. However, this structure, with its elongated interlocking joints, is susceptible to deformation from repeated disassembly and improper transportation. Mild deformation can cause the slot or insert to jam during insertion, resulting in poor connection. Severe deformation can prevent the slot and insert from fitting together properly, thus affecting the overall assembly and forming of the display case.

[0004] Therefore, how to further improve the existing modular counters to address this issue has become an urgent problem to be solved. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is: in order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a counter frame structure and counter, which can be assembled and installed according to actual display needs, has high reliability, and the installation process is simple and convenient. The assembled counter can change its height and quantity according to the site requirements, and has a wider range of applications and uses.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: a counter frame structure, including a number of frame plates, at least three of the frame plates are spliced ​​end to end to form a frame; one end of each frame plate has a first connecting part and the other end has a second connecting part; the upper end of the first connecting part has an upper insert bar and the lower end has a lower insert bar, and the upper end of the second connecting part has an upper slot and the lower end has a lower slot; when two adjacent frame plates are spliced, the upper insert bar of one plate is inserted into the upper slot of the other plate, and the lower insert bar of one plate is inserted into the lower slot of the other plate.

[0007] In the above solution, addressing the shortcomings of traditional modular display cases, a frame with several panels is designed for assembly as needed. When assembling adjacent panels, simply insert the connectors and slots at the top and bottom to complete the assembly. The assembly process is convenient and quick, eliminating the need for long, irregular shapes and reducing the impact of repeated disassembly and improper transportation on the final assembly result.

[0008] Furthermore, in the cooperation between the upper plug bar and the upper slot, there is a first upper transition slope between the outer side and the bottom surface of the upper plug bar, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the upper plug bar at the position of the first upper transition slope gradually decreases from top to bottom; there is a second upper transition slope between the inner side and the top surface of the upper slot, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the upper slot at the position of the second upper transition slope gradually decreases from top to bottom, and the smallest cross-sectional area in the second upper transition slope is not less than the largest cross-sectional area in the first upper transition slope; the upper slot is a non-through slot, and when two adjacent frame plates are spliced, the bottom surface of the upper plug bar of one is limited and supported by the bottom of the slot of the other. The first upper transition slope effectively guides the upper plug bar and the upper slot to effectively align and cooperate when they are inserted. Meanwhile, in the cooperation between the upper power strip and the upper slot, the bottom of the upper slot is used as a limit, so that when the upper power strip is plugged into the upper slot, it has a final limit downward, avoiding slippage due to excessive downward insertion, and effectively positioning the relative position of the upper power strip and the upper slot in the height direction.

[0009] Furthermore, in the mating of the lower power strip and the lower slot, there is a first lower transition slope between the outer side surface and the bottom surface of the lower power strip, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the upper power strip at the position of the first lower transition slope gradually decreases from top to bottom; the lower slot is a through groove, and the cross-section of the through groove matches the largest cross-section in the first lower transition slope. In the mating of the lower power strip and the lower slot, the design of the first transition slope also effectively guides the direction of the insertion and mating.

[0010] Preferably, during the insertion and assembly process at the upper and lower ends of the frame plate, to better achieve the insertion and assembly and make the assembly process smoother, the inner side of the frame plate corresponding to the first connecting part has a deformation cavity. The cavity wall of the deformation cavity corresponding to the first connecting part is a thin-walled structure. During the insertion and slot assembly process, the thin-walled structure and the deformation cavity can deform to adapt to the insertion and assembly, thereby accommodating the torsion and deformation caused by the frame plate during disassembly, assembly and transportation, making the insertion and assembly smoother and more reliable.

[0011] Furthermore, in order to further limit the horizontal movement of the two spliced ​​frame panels, when two adjacent frame panels are spliced, the splicing end faces of the first connecting part and the second connecting part are inclined relative to the outer side of any frame panel; wherein the second connecting part corresponds to the end face spliced ​​with the first connecting part, extends inward along the inclined surface and protrudes with a stop strip, the stop strip limiting the first connecting part of the other frame panel.

[0012] Furthermore, the upper end of the frame plate extends upwards with insert plates, and all the insert plates in the same frame constitute insert plate protrusions; the lower end of the frame plate has a limiting plate on its inner wall, and the lower ends of all the frame plates in the same frame surround each other to form a slot, with the limiting plate forming the top wall of the slot. Through the cooperation of the insert plate protrusions and the slots, the positioning and cooperation of the frame plates in the height direction are realized, allowing the counter frame structure to be assembled as needed in the height direction.

[0013] A counter, comprising several of the aforementioned counter frame structures.

[0014] Furthermore, the aforementioned counter can be formed by combining multiple counter frame structures in the horizontal direction, that is, several counter frame structures are laid flat in the horizontal direction to form a counter layer, and a cover plate is provided on the top of the counter layer.

[0015] The aforementioned counter can be designed as a multi-layered structure in the height direction, that is, it includes several counter layers. In the counter frame structure of each counter layer, the upper end of the frame panel extends upward with an insert plate. All the insert plates in the same frame form an insert plate protrusion. The inner wall of the lower end of the frame panel is provided with a limiting plate. The lower ends of all the frame panels in the same frame surround each other to form a slot, and the limiting plate forms the top wall of the slot. The insert plate protrusion of the lower counter frame structure is engaged with the slot of the corresponding upper counter frame structure. The insert plate protrusion of the uppermost counter frame structure is engaged with the cover plate.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are that the counter frame structure provided by this utility model has a simple and reasonable structural design. By designing connecting parts at both ends of the frame panels, the end-to-end splicing of multiple frame panels is completed by utilizing the cooperation of the connecting parts of one frame panel with the connecting parts of another frame panel. In practical use, the frame panels can be combined as needed, and multiple layers of frame panels can be spliced ​​up and down to form a counter. The splicing and disassembly process is convenient and quick, with good alignment and no jamming during splicing, and the formed counter display stand has good reliability.

Detailed Implementation

[0029] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, illustrating only the basic structure of the present invention. Therefore, they only show the components relevant to the present invention. Orientations and references (e.g., up, down, left, right, etc.) are only used to aid in the description of the features in the drawings. Therefore, the following specific embodiments are not intended to be restrictive, and the scope of the claimed subject matter is defined solely by the appended claims and their equivalents.

[0030] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 The counter frame structure shown is an embodiment of this utility model.

[0031] Figure 3The counter frame structure is formed by splicing four frame panels 2 end to end. Each frame panel 2 uses the same structure.

[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the frame plate 2 has a first connecting part 9 at one end and a second connecting part 5 at the other end. The upper end of the first connecting part 9 has an upper insert bar 7 and the lower end has a lower insert bar 14. The upper end of the second connecting part 5 has an upper slot 6 and the lower end has a lower slot 3. When two adjacent frame plates 2 are spliced, the upper insert bar 7 of one side is inserted into the upper slot 6 of the other side, and the lower insert bar 14 of one side is inserted into the lower slot 3 of the other side.

[0033] Since this embodiment uses a splicing method of four frame plates 2 correspondingly spliced, when two adjacent frame plates 2 are spliced, the splicing end face 8 of the first connecting part 9 and the second connecting part 5 is an inclined surface relative to the outer surface of any frame plate 2. For example Figure 4 As shown, the angle between the inclined surface and the outer surface of the first connecting part 9 or the second connecting part 5 is 45°. At the same time, the second connecting part 5, corresponding to the end face that mates with the first connecting part 9, extends inward along the inclined surface and protrudes with a stop bar 4. The stop bar 4 limits the first connecting part 9 of the other frame plate 2, and further provides approximate lateral limitation for the connection part of the two frame plates 2 when splicing during the assembly process.

[0034] The fit between the upper power strip 7 and the upper slot 6:

[0035] like Figure 5 As shown, the outer surface of the upper plug bar 7 and the lower bottom surface have a first upper transition slope 11, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the upper plug bar 7 at the position of the first upper transition slope gradually decreases from top to bottom. Figure 6 As shown, the inner side of the upper slot 6 and the upper top surface have a second upper transition slope 13. The cross-sectional area of ​​the upper slot 6 at the position of the second upper transition slope 13 gradually decreases from top to bottom. The smallest cross-sectional area in the second upper transition slope 13 is not less than the largest cross-sectional area in the first upper transition slope 11. The first upper transition slope 11 effectively guides the upper plug bar 7 to be inserted into the upper slot 6, ensuring effective alignment and mating between the plug bar and the slot.

[0036] Meanwhile, the upper slot 6 is a non-through slot. When two adjacent frame plates 2 are spliced, the bottom surface of the upper plug bar 7 of one is limited and supported by the bottom of the slot 6 of the other. In the cooperation between the upper plug bar 7 and the upper slot 6, the bottom of the slot 6 is used as a limiter, so that the upper plug bar 7 has a final downward limit when it is inserted into the upper slot 6, avoiding slippage due to excessive downward insertion, and effectively positioning the relative position of the upper plug bar 7 and the upper slot 6 in the height direction.

[0037] The mating of the lower connector 14 and the lower slot 3:

[0038] like Figure 7 As shown, the lower plug bar 14 has a first lower transition slope 15 between its outer surface and bottom surface, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the upper plug bar 7 at the position of the first lower transition slope gradually decreases from top to bottom. Figure 8 As shown, the lower slot 3 is a through slot, and the cross-section of the through slot matches the largest cross-section of the first lower transition slope 15. In the mating of the lower plug bar 14 and the lower slot 3, the design of the first transition slope also effectively guides the direction of the mating.

[0039] With the bottom support of the upper slot 6, the frame plate 2 in the same horizontal direction is limited in height by the bottom of the slot during connection. Therefore, the lower plug and slot do not need to be limited in height again, meaning that the lower slot 3 can adopt a through-slot design. This design also makes the lower position less restricted during the insertion process, based on the effective positioning of the upper position, which is more conducive to improving the smoothness of the assembly.

[0040] In this embodiment, four frame plates 2 are used to form a frame structure. Unlike the original profile frame structure where all sides require interlocking, this design only uses interlocking at the top and bottom ends of the frame plates 2. There are no additional limiting fits in the middle of the left and right sides of the frame plates 2. This design allows for segmented mating positions and reduced mating lengths during assembly. Deformation caused by repeated disassembly or improper transportation during frame plate 2 assembly poses less of an obstacle to the assembly process. Therefore, it offers better adaptability and reliability compared to the original profile frame.

[0041] Based on this, during the insertion and assembly process at the upper and lower ends of the frame plate 2, to better achieve the insertion and assembly and make the assembly process smoother, the frame plate 2 has a deformation cavity 10 in the hollow inner side corresponding to the first connecting part 9. To match the 45° angled splicing end face 8, the radial cross-section of the deformation cavity 10 can preferably be designed as an isosceles right triangle, with the base of the isosceles right triangle parallel to the splicing end face 8. This base also forms the cavity wall of the deformation cavity 10 corresponding to the first connecting part 9. The cavity wall adopts a thin-walled structure. When the plug and slot are engaged, the thin-walled structure and the deformation cavity 10 can deform to accommodate the insertion and assembly, thereby adapting to the torsion and deformation caused by the frame plate 2 during disassembly, assembly, and transportation, making the insertion and assembly smoother and more reliable.

[0042] To facilitate the vertical assembly of the counter frames, the upper surface of frame panel 2 extends upwards with insert plates 12, and all insert plates 12 within the same frame form a protrusion of insert plate 12. A limiting plate 16 is provided on the inner wall of the lower end of frame panel 2, and the lower ends of all frame panels 2 within the same frame enclose each other to form a slot, with the limiting plate 16 forming the top wall of the slot. The two assembled counter frames, stacked vertically, utilize the cooperation of the protrusions of insert plates 12 and the slot to achieve vertical alignment of the frame panels 2 and effectively position them, preventing lateral slippage. The counter frame structure can be assembled vertically by selecting the required number of layers according to display needs.

[0043] Using the aforementioned counter frame structure, a counter can be assembled to meet display needs.

[0044] Specifically, the counter can be like Figure 9 As shown, it includes one or more sets of counter frame structures. Figure 9 The middle section has two sets of counter frames, which are stacked one on top of the other.

[0045] When there are multiple counter frame structures, the enclosed counter frame structures can be laid flat in the horizontal direction as needed to form counter layers. Alternatively, the counter frame structures can be stacked vertically to form multiple counter layers, depending on the height requirements.

[0046] In addition to the aforementioned counters, there may also be... Figure 10 As shown, a cover plate 1 is designed on the uppermost counter frame structure. The cover plate 1 and the insert plate 12 are protruded and inserted to make the upper surface of the assembled counter have a display stand.

[0047] Thus, the counter adopts a modular frame structure design, which can be assembled according to the actual exhibition and display needs, by selecting the corresponding area and height of the counter frame structure in the horizontal and vertical directions, and whether or not to add a cover plate 1 according to the display and placement needs.

[0048] Based on the above-described preferred embodiments of this utility model, and through the foregoing description, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the technical concept of this utility model. The technical scope of this utility model is not limited to the contents of the specification, but must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
