Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of logistics transportation vehicle technology, specifically relating to a special stacked structure blister tray for drive shafts. Background Technology

[0002] For the automotive industry, the driveshaft is a crucial component, connecting to the engine and transmission to transmit power to the wheels. During transportation and storage, driveshafts face various risks, such as moisture, dust, and impacts, making proper packaging essential. Currently, off-site transport of driveshafts typically uses a combination of storage boxes and nylon bags. The driveshaft, sealed in nylon bags, is placed inside the storage box. To provide shock absorption during transport, foam or inflatable bags are added inside the box for cushioning. This packaging method generates significant amounts of white pollution, causing environmental damage, and the materials cannot be reused, increasing transportation costs. Furthermore, off-site transport of driveshafts usually involves delivering parts from component factories to OEMs for assembly, rather than selling the driveshafts directly. Therefore, upon arrival at the OEM, the driveshafts must be unpacked and reassembled on the production line. Overly complex packaging can create difficulties in retrieval, impacting subsequent processing efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the aforementioned problems and technical needs, this utility model provides a special stacked structure blister tray for drive shafts. This blister tray has a cavity structure for storing drive shafts, which can better fix the drive shafts during transportation. The blister tray can be reused, reducing environmental pollution and saving packaging costs.

[0004] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: A special stacked structure blister tray for drive shafts includes a blister tray and part cavities. The bottom panel of the blister tray is provided with multiple part cavities, each part cavity containing one drive shaft part. The multiple part cavities are arranged alternately, with adjacent drive shaft parts placed in opposite directions. Each part cavity includes a head slot, a tail slot, and a shaft support bracket. The head slot and tail slot are respectively located on both sides of the bottom panel. Multiple head slots and tail slots located on the same side are connected as one unit. Multiple shaft support brackets are provided between the head slots and tail slots of the same part cavity. The middle shaft of the drive shaft part is supported by multiple shaft support brackets. The top of the shaft support bracket is provided with a groove to accommodate the journal. All shaft support brackets on the bottom panel are connected by plastic reinforcing strips.

[0005] In the above solution, the head, tail, and middle parts of the drive shaft components are respectively accommodated and supported by the head slot, tail slot, and shaft support bracket. Therefore, the drive shaft components will not experience lateral rolling or axial movement, providing a good limiting effect. The alternating orientation of adjacent component cavities is a design for accommodating and avoiding collisions, which can increase the number of components that the blister tray can accommodate and balance the supporting pressure. Since this tray is blister-formed, the plastic strips are actually the flow channels arranged during the blister forming process. All shaft support brackets can be formed in one injection molding process. Retaining the plastic strips not only simplifies the processing technology but also enhances the rigidity of the middle part of the bottom panel and increases the load-bearing capacity.

[0006] Furthermore, a carrying handle is provided on each side of the center of the blister tray. The two carrying handles facilitate manual handling of the blister tray.

[0007] Furthermore, the four side walls of the blister tray are each provided with outward-facing flanges at a 90° angle. Each flange has a metal reinforcing strip at its bottom, and the metal reinforcing strip is connected to the flange by multiple bolts. The metal reinforcing strip, which is then fixedly connected to the flange, enhances the load-bearing capacity of the blister tray's edges, facilitating stacking.

[0008] Furthermore, each of the four outer sidewalls of the blister tray is provided with longitudinally protruding sidewall reinforcing ribs. Bolts connecting the flange and the metal reinforcing strips are fastened from top to bottom, and the bolt installation positions are staggered with the sidewall reinforcing ribs. When stacked, the weight is mainly borne by the four sidewalls. The sidewall reinforcing ribs can increase the load-bearing capacity of the sidewalls and prevent the sidewalls from deforming under stress.

[0009] Furthermore, the blister tray has chamfered surfaces at each of its four corners, and a metal support block is provided on the upper part of the outer side of each chamfered surface. The blister tray can be lifted and placed by gripping the metal support block. The metal support block facilitates the gripping, lifting, and stacking of blister trays by the robotic arm.

[0010] Furthermore, each of the opposing bends along the upper edge of the blister tray is provided with anti-foolproof notches, and the number of anti-foolproof notches on the two bends is different. The bottom of the outer wall of the blister tray is provided with inserts that correspond one-to-one with the anti-foolproof notches on the same side. When stacked, the inserts of the upper blister tray are embedded into the anti-foolproof notches of the lower blister tray. Providing different numbers of anti-foolproof notches and inserts on opposite sides can position the upper and lower blister trays, facilitating neat stacking and preventing the blister trays from being placed upside down.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: 1) This blister tray uses a fixed cavity to store the drive shaft parts. There is no need to equip the tray with additional cushioning and protective parts, nor is it necessary to package and place the drive shaft parts. This can save a lot of packaging materials, avoid waste and environmental pollution, meet the requirements of recycling, and is economical and environmentally friendly; 2) The outer side wall of the blister tray is provided with side wall reinforcing ribs, and the top flange is reinforced by metal reinforcing strips, so that the upper and lower sides of the tray side wall have sufficient strength to meet the strength requirements of multi-layer stacking. At the same time, the plastic reinforcing strip in the middle of the bottom panel can locally thicken the bottom panel, improve the load-bearing capacity of the bottom panel, and prevent the middle of the bottom panel loaded with drive shaft parts from being deformed under pressure; 3) The different anti-foolproof notches and inserts set on both sides can not only stack multiple blister trays neatly, but also prevent the two ends of the blister trays from being placed backwards, which has the function of precise positioning.

[0019] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0020] like Figure 1-6The illustration shows a special stacked structure blister tray for drive shafts according to this utility model, including a blister tray 1 and part cavities 3. The bottom panel 2 of the blister tray 1 is provided with multiple part cavities 3, each part cavity 3 containing a drive shaft part 5. The multiple part cavities 3 are arranged alternately, with adjacent drive shaft parts 5 placed in opposite directions. The part cavity 3 includes a head slot 31, a tail slot 32, and a shaft support bracket 33. The head slot 31 and tail slot 32 are respectively located on both sides of the bottom panel 2. Multiple head slots 31 and tail slots 32 located on the same side are connected as one unit. Multiple shaft support brackets 33 are provided between the head slots 31 and tail slots 32 of the same part cavity 3. The middle shaft of the drive shaft part 5 is supported by multiple shaft support brackets 33. The top of the shaft support bracket 33 is provided with a groove 331 for accommodating the journal. All shaft support brackets 33 on the bottom panel 2 are connected by plastic reinforcing strips 21.

[0021] The four side walls of the blister tray 1 have outward-facing flanges 11 at their upper edges, with an outward angle of 90°. Each flange 11 has a metal reinforcing strip 4 at its bottom, and the metal reinforcing strip 4 is connected to the flange 11 by multiple bolts 41. The metal reinforcing strip 4, which securely connects to the flange 11, enhances the load-bearing capacity of the blister tray's edges, facilitating stacking. The four side walls of the blister tray 1 also have longitudinally protruding side wall reinforcing ribs 12 on their outer surfaces. The bolts 41 connecting the flanges 11 and the metal reinforcing strips 4 are tightened from top to bottom, and their positions are staggered from the side wall reinforcing ribs 12. When stacked, the weight is primarily borne by the four side walls; the side wall reinforcing ribs increase the load-bearing capacity of the side walls and prevent deformation under stress.

[0022] The outer side wall of the blister tray 1 is provided with side wall reinforcing ribs 12, and the top flange 11 is reinforced by metal reinforcing strips 4, so that the upper and lower sides of the tray have sufficient strength to meet the strength requirements of multi-layer stacking. At the same time, the plastic reinforcing strip 21 in the middle of the bottom panel 2 can locally thicken the bottom panel 2, improve the load-bearing capacity of the bottom panel 2, and prevent the middle of the bottom panel, which is loaded with drive shaft parts 5, from being deformed by pressure.

[0023] The blister tray 1 has a handle strap 22 on each side of its central section. Each of the four corners of the blister tray 1 has a chamfered surface 13, and a metal support block 131 is located on the upper outer side of each chamfered surface 13. The blister tray 1 can be lifted and lowered by gripping the metal support block 131. The handle straps 22 are for manual handling, while the metal support blocks 131 facilitate the gripping, lifting, and stacking of the blister trays by a robotic arm.

[0024] The blister tray 1 has anti-misalignment notches 14 at a set of opposite bends along its upper edge, with the number of notches 14 on the two bends being different. The bottom of the outer wall of the blister tray 1 has inserts 15 that correspond one-to-one with the anti-misalignment notches 14 on the same side. When stacked, the inserts 15 of the upper blister tray are embedded into the anti-misalignment notches 14 of the lower blister tray. The different numbers of anti-misalignment notches 14 and inserts 15 on opposite sides help position the upper and lower blister trays, facilitating neat stacking and preventing the blister trays from being placed upside down.
