[0030] Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. In the description of this invention, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly defined.

[0031] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components.

[0033] like Figures 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides a rear axle storage rack for automobiles. The rear axle storage rack 100 includes a square base frame 1 and rear axle storage assemblies arranged opposite each other on both sides of the base frame 1. The base frame 1 has four vertically downward-extending first extension rods at its four corners, with downward-facing insertion holes 2 at the bottom ends of the first extension rods. The rear axle storage assemblies include a U-shaped support frame 3 and multiple storage modules spaced apart from top to bottom on the support frame 3. The bottom of the support frame 3 is integrally formed with the first extension rods.

[0034] The storage module includes a crossbeam 4 and a rotating frame 5 that is rotated and flipped inside the support frame 3. The rotating frame 5 has a U-shaped structure. The top two ends of the rotating frame 5 are rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the support frame 3 through pins 10. The rotating frame 5 is provided with a support plate 6. The support plate 6 has a limiting groove 7 for supporting the rear axle. The two ends of the rear axle 15 are respectively supported in the corresponding limiting groove 7, which can both support the rear axle 15 and prevent the two adjacent rear axles 15 from moving randomly and bumping into each other.

[0035] The crossbeam 4 is welded and fixed at both ends to the inner side of the support frame 3. When the tilting frame 5 is in a horizontal state, the bottom of the tilting frame 5 is supported on the crossbeam 4, which provides support for the tilting frame 5. After the rear axle 15 on the upper tilting frame 5 is removed, the upper tilting frame 5 can be flipped up to facilitate the retrieval of the rear axle 15 on the lower tilting frame 5. This design helps to improve the storage efficiency of a single car rear axle storage rack, saves storage space, and allows a single car rear axle storage rack to store more rear axles 15.

[0036] The support frame 3 has two vertically upward extending second extension rods 8 at its top ends. The top of the second extension rods 8 has insert blocks 9 for inserting into the insertion holes 2 at the bottom of other car rear axle storage racks, so that the car rear axle storage racks stacked one on top of the other can remain stable.

[0037] By inserting a forklift into the bottom of the base frame 1, the rear axle storage racks of the automobile can be lifted upwards and stacked sequentially, saving warehouse storage space. To facilitate the quick insertion of the insert block 9 into the socket 2, the top of the insert block 9 is truncated pyramidal, and the shape of the socket 2 matches the shape of the insert block 9, with the insert block 9 serving as a guide.

[0038] To ensure a stable connection between the two support frames 3, a connecting rod 11 is fixedly connected between them. The connecting rod 11 is located on one side of the support frame 3, thereby strengthening the structure.

[0039] Furthermore, to prevent the rear axle 15 from moving freely between the two support plates 6, a baffle 12 for limiting the end face of the rear axle 15 is also provided on the tilting frame 5. The baffle 12 is located in the middle of the tilting frame 5.

[0040] To prevent collisions, rubber pads are provided on the surface of the baffle 12 that contacts the end face of the rear axle 15. Rubber pads are also provided on the inner wall of the limiting groove 7 to provide flexible support.

[0041] Furthermore, a limiting block 13 is provided on the outer side of the support frame 3 to limit the rotation angle of the flipping frame 5, so that the flipping frame 5 can only flip up and down between the limiting block 13 and the crossbeam 4, with a flipping angle of 90°. In order to prevent the flipping frame 5 from moving freely in the vertical state, a magnet can be provided at the part where the flipping frame 5 contacts the limiting block 13, and the frame is magnetically attracted to the limiting block 13 by the magnet.

[0042] Furthermore, the top two ends of the tilting frame 5 have axially extending adjustment holes 14, and the pin 10 is located within the adjustment holes 14. Through the adjustment holes 14, the distance between the two horizontally opposite tilting frames 5 can be adjusted, thereby meeting the storage requirements of rear axles of different lengths and making it more practical.

[0043] In summary, the rear axle storage rack provided by this utility model can be stacked sequentially by lifting it upwards with a forklift, saving warehouse storage space. Furthermore, a single rear axle storage rack can store rear axles in multiple layers, effectively improving storage efficiency and space utilization. Simultaneously, the rear axles are not compressed during storage, preventing deformation due to stress.

[0044] Finally, it should be noted that the technical features of the technical solution of this application can be combined arbitrarily. In order to simplify the description, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this application.

[0045] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and are not intended to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention, and they should all be covered within the scope of the claims and specification of the present invention.
