Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of logistics and warehousing technology, specifically to an adjustable storage rack for intelligent warehouse logistics. Background Technology

[0002] Storage racks used in warehouses are generally designed to be tall and multi-layered. However, because existing storage racks are typically fixed in structure and cannot be adjusted vertically, staff need to use tools to retrieve items from the upper shelves. This process is time-consuming and laborious, especially for heavier items. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the problems and shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides an adjustable storage rack for intelligent warehouse logistics.

[0004] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0005] An adjustable storage rack for intelligent warehouse logistics includes a storage rack having uprights on both sides and a plurality of storage shelves connected between the uprights and spaced vertically.

[0006] It also includes an adjustment mechanism for driving the shelf to move up and down. The adjustment mechanism has several vertically coaxial second drive shafts that are threaded to the upper and lower parts of each shelf. The top second drive shaft is rotatably connected to the top shelf, and the bottom second drive shaft is rotatably connected to the bottom shelf. The upper and lower adjacent second drive shafts can be selectively connected by an electromagnetic clutch.

[0007] The adjustment mechanism also includes:

[0008] Drive components are used to provide power for rotary motion;

[0009] The first drive shaft is horizontally rotatably connected to the upright plate, located below the adjacent shelf, with one end extending to the outside of the upright plate and the other end connected to the drive assembly and rotating under its drive.

[0010] The transmission assembly includes a third gear and a fourth gear that mesh with each other. The third gear is connected to a first transmission shaft, and the fourth gear is connected to each segment of a second transmission shaft. According to a specific embodiment, the third gear and the fourth gear are bevel gears or helical gears.

[0011] The drive assembly includes a motor and a first gear and a second gear that mesh with each other. The first gear is connected to the motor, and the second gear is axially slidably connected to the first drive shaft through a shifting mechanism and can selectively mesh with the first gear.

[0012] The first drive shaft and the second gear are splined together. The outer ring of the hub of the second gear has a slot, through which the switching machine engages with the second gear. According to a specific embodiment, the first gear and the second gear are spur gears.

[0013] The shifting mechanism has a fixed end and a telescopic end. The telescopic end is connected to the second gear and drives it to move axially relative to the fixed end along the first transmission shaft. Specifically, the shifting mechanism includes a shift fork and an electric push rod. The shift fork cooperates with the second gear, and the telescopic end of the electric push rod is connected to the shift fork.

[0014] To facilitate the adjustment of each shelf, multiple sets of drive components, first drive shafts, transmission components, and shifting mechanisms are provided, which are respectively connected to each shelf except for the top shelf and the bottom shelf.

[0015] To improve the stability of the shelf, two sets of second drive shafts are symmetrically arranged along the length of the shelf.

[0016] To guide the shelf, a sliding flange is provided in the middle of the shelf in the width direction, which is used to slide up and down with the inner side of the upright.

[0017] Working principle:

[0018] When adjusting a shelf, the electromagnetic clutch is first disengaged. Then, the corresponding shelf's shifting mechanism drives the second gear to mesh with the first gear. Finally, the motor is started, driving the first drive shaft to rotate. This rotation, via the third and fourth gears, causes the second drive shaft to rotate. Because the second drive shaft is threaded onto the shelf, the shelf moves up and down relative to the second drive shaft through the threaded joint, achieving vertical adjustment. When adjusting the vertical position of two adjacent shelves simultaneously, the electromagnetic clutch is engaged. Then, one of the corresponding shifting mechanisms drives the second gear to mesh with the corresponding first gear. Finally, the motor connected to the first gear is started, driving the first drive shaft to rotate. This rotation, via the third and fourth gears, causes the second drive shaft to rotate. Because the electromagnetic clutch connects the two adjacent second drive shafts, the upper and lower shelves move up and down simultaneously.

[0019] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0020] By employing an electromagnetic clutch and adjustment mechanism, single-layer or multi-layer shelves can be adjusted vertically simultaneously. For single-layer shelf adjustment, the electromagnetic clutch disengages, then the corresponding layer's shifting mechanism drives the second gear to mesh with the first gear. Finally, the motor is activated, driving the first drive shaft to rotate, which in turn drives the second drive shaft via the third and fourth gears. Since the second drive shaft is threaded onto the shelf, the shelf moves vertically relative to the second drive shaft through the threaded joint, achieving vertical adjustment. For multi-layer shelf adjustment, simply engage the electromagnetic clutch, connecting the second adjustment shaft to the shelf to be adjusted, and then drive it using the drive assembly.

[0025] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an adjustable storage rack for intelligent warehouse logistics includes a storage rack with uprights 1 on both sides and a plurality of storage plates 2 connected between the uprights 1 and spaced vertically.

[0026] It also includes an adjustment mechanism 3 that drives the shelf 2 to move up and down. The adjustment mechanism 3 has several vertically coaxial second drive shafts 37 that are threaded together with each shelf 2. The top second drive shaft 37 is rotatably connected to the top shelf 2, and the bottom second drive shaft 37 is rotatably connected to the bottom shelf 2. The adjacent second drive shafts 37 can be selectively connected by an electromagnetic clutch 4.

[0027] Adjustment mechanism 3 also includes:

[0028] Drive components are used to provide power for rotary motion;

[0029] The first drive shaft 34 is horizontally rotatably connected to the upright plate 1, located below the adjacent shelf 2, with one end extending to the outside of the upright plate 1 and the other end connected to the drive assembly and rotating under its drive.

[0030] The transmission assembly includes a third gear 35 and a fourth gear 36 that mesh with each other. The third gear 35 is connected to a first transmission shaft 34, and the fourth gear 36 is connected to each segment of a second transmission shaft 37. According to a specific embodiment, the third gear 35 and the fourth gear 36 are bevel gears or helical gears.

[0031] The drive assembly includes a motor 31 and a first gear 32 and a second gear 33 that mesh with each other. The first gear 32 is connected to the motor 31, and the second gear 33 is axially slidably connected to the first transmission shaft 34 through a shifting mechanism 38 and can selectively mesh with the first gear 32.

[0032] The first drive shaft 34 and the second gear 33 are splined together. The outer ring of the hub of the second gear 33 is provided with a slot, through which the switching machine engages with the second gear 33. According to a specific embodiment, the first gear 32 and the second gear 33 are spur gears.

[0033] The shifting mechanism 38 has a fixed end and a telescopic end. The telescopic end is connected to the second gear 33 and drives it to move axially relative to the fixed end along the first transmission shaft 34. Specifically, the shifting mechanism 38 includes a shift fork and an electric push rod. The shift fork cooperates with the second gear 33, and the telescopic end of the electric push rod is connected to the shift fork.

[0034] To facilitate the adjustment of each shelf 2, multiple sets of drive components, first drive shaft 34, transmission components and shifting mechanism 38 are provided, which are respectively connected to each shelf 2 except for the top shelf 2 and the bottom shelf 2.

[0035] To improve the stability of the shelf 2, two sets of second drive shafts 37 are symmetrically arranged along the length of the shelf 2.

[0036] In order to guide the shelf 2, a sliding flange is provided in the middle of the width direction of the shelf 2, which is used to slide up and down with the inner side of the upright plate 1.

[0037] Working principle:

[0038] When adjusting a shelf 2, the electromagnetic clutch 4 is first disengaged. Then, the corresponding layer's shifting mechanism 38 drives the second gear 33 to mesh with the first gear 32. Finally, the motor 31 is started, driving the first drive shaft 34 to rotate. This rotation, via the third gear 35 and the fourth gear 36, causes the second drive shaft 37 to rotate. Since the second drive shaft 37 is threadedly engaged with the shelf 2, the shelf 2 moves up and down relative to the second drive shaft 37 through the threaded pair, achieving vertical adjustment. When adjusting the vertical position of two adjacent shelves 2 simultaneously, the electromagnetic clutch 4 is engaged. Then, one of the corresponding two layer shifting mechanisms 38 drives the corresponding second gear 33 to mesh with the corresponding first gear 32. Finally, the motor 31 connected to the first gear 32 is started, driving the first drive shaft 34 to rotate. This rotation, via the third gear 35 and the fourth gear 36, causes the second drive shaft 37 to rotate. Since the electromagnetic clutch 4 connects the two adjacent second drive shafts 37, the upper and lower shelves 2 are moved up and down simultaneously.
