Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glass processing and storage technology, and in particular to a glass block placement rack. Background Technology
[0002] Glass is an amorphous inorganic non-metallic material made from a variety of inorganic minerals as the main raw materials. Its main components are silicon dioxide and other oxides. According to different processes, it can be divided into hot-melt glass, embossed glass, tempered glass, laminated glass, insulated glass, smart glass, etc. It is widely used in construction, electronics and instrumentation.
[0003] Existing glass block storage racks are mostly simple in structure and use multiple groups of glass blocks stacked together. This makes the glass blocks prone to collisions during transport or storage, easily causing scratches on the glass surface and potentially leading to breakage. This negatively impacts glass production quality and is unsuitable for storing various types of glass blocks or for rapid retrieval. Large warehouse-style storage racks are typically long and tall, requiring elevators to lift items and then manual placement or removal. This increases workload and, for taller racks, necessitates workers climbing, which poses safety risks. Utility Model Content

The multiple support rods, the multiple vertical support rods, and the outer frame form several arrayed storage frames. A feeding platform is provided on one side of the outer frame, and a three-dimensional storage and retrieval component is provided on another side. The three-dimensional storage and retrieval component includes a Y-axis motion mechanism, an X-axis motion mechanism, and a Z-axis motion mechanism. The X-axis motion mechanism is mounted on the Y-axis motion mechanism, and the Z-axis motion mechanism is mounted on the X-axis motion mechanism.

[0007] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the Y-axis motion mechanism specifically includes: a rectangular Y-axis track frame fixedly connected to one side of the upper part of the outer frame; two parallel first straight racks fixedly connected to the inner side of the long side of the Y-axis track frame; each of the two first straight racks is rotatably connected to a first gear; a first transmission shaft is fixedly connected between the two first gears; a first motor is fixedly connected to the middle of the first transmission shaft; first limiting blocks are also fixedly connected to the upper part of the four corners of the Y-axis track frame; and the X-axis motion mechanism is installed above the Y-axis track frame.
[0008] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the X-axis motion mechanism specifically includes: a rectangular X-axis track frame movably connected to the long side of the Y-axis track frame; four X-axis rollers fixedly connected to the bottom of the X-axis track frame; the surfaces of the X-axis rollers rollingly connected to the upper surface of the Y-axis track frame; two parallel second straight racks fixedly connected to the inner side of the long side of the X-axis track frame; each of the two second straight racks rotatably connected to a second gear; a second transmission shaft fixedly connected between the two second gears; a second motor fixedly connected to the middle of the second transmission shaft; second limiting blocks fixedly connected to the upper four corners of the X-axis track frame; the Z-axis motion mechanism mounted on the top surface of the X-axis track frame; and the first motor fixedly connected to the side of the X-axis track frame for driving the X-axis motion mechanism to move horizontally.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] 1. The three-dimensional storage and retrieval component of this utility model adopts gear transmission in both the Y-axis and Z-axis directions. It not only has a large load-bearing capacity but also smooth and stable transmission, resulting in high stability when storing and retrieving glass blocks. In addition, during the process of the glass block being dragged to the designated location by the three-dimensional storage and retrieval component, the Y-axis motion mechanism and the Z-axis motion mechanism operate independently to avoid mutual interference, thus preventing the glass block from colliding and scratching during transportation or storage.
[0015] 2. Through the transmission of gears and racks in the X-axis direction, the strip plate used to fork the glass block can be extended precisely, thereby stably supporting the glass block and preventing the glass block from falling and damaging it or hitting the staff during the transfer process, thus improving safety.
[0016] 3. Staff can control the three-dimensional storage components through the control terminal, thus eliminating the need for staff to constantly walk around the side of the shelving to pick up and put down glass blocks, thereby reducing the workload of staff and improving storage efficiency.

[0024] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0025] In the attached diagram, all identical reference numerals refer to the same components.
[0026] like Figure 1-5 As shown in this embodiment, a glass block placement rack includes an outer frame 1. Multiple evenly distributed vertical support rods 2 are fixedly connected between the top and bottom of the outer frame 1. Multiple support rods 3 are fixedly connected along the height direction to the two sides of the vertical support rods 2 and the two inner sides of the outer frame 1. The multiple support rods 3, the multiple vertical support rods 2, and the outer frame 1 form several arrayed storage frames 4. A material feeding platform 5 is provided on one side of the outer frame 1, and a three-dimensional storage and retrieval component is provided on another side of the outer frame 1. The three-dimensional storage and retrieval component includes a Y-axis motion mechanism, an X-axis motion mechanism, and a Z-axis motion mechanism. The X-axis motion mechanism is mounted on the Y-axis motion mechanism, and the Z-axis motion mechanism is mounted on the X-axis motion mechanism. Each storage frame 4 has an anti-fall baffle 6 on its side. This invention, through the three-dimensional storage and retrieval component and the anti-fall baffle 6, can effectively prevent glass blocks from falling from heights and causing damage or injuring workers.
[0027] The method of using this utility model is as follows:
[0028] 1. When storing glass blocks, the glass block information is first transmitted to the control terminal 8. After the control terminal 8 confirms the glass block information, it allocates a storage box 4 to the glass block. The glass block information includes the type and model of the glass block. It should be noted that the glass blocks are stored and retrieved in order from top to bottom. Only when the upper storage box 4 is full can the lower storage box 4 be allocated.
[0029] 2. Place the glass block base on the feeding plate 7 of the feeding platform 5, and position the glass block in the middle of the two feeding plates 7. Then, the Y-axis motion mechanism and Z-axis motion mechanism of the three-dimensional storage component move the X-axis motion mechanism to the bottom of the glass block. Immediately afterwards, the X-axis motion mechanism extends the two strip plates 39 and inserts them under the glass block base. Then, the Y-axis motion mechanism lifts the glass block. Finally, the strip plates 39 and the glass block are retracted together. Then, the Y-axis motion mechanism and Z-axis motion mechanism move the glass block to the side of the assigned storage frame 4. The X-axis motion mechanism extends the glass block and places it into the storage frame 4.
[0030] 3. When retrieving goods, the three-dimensional storage and retrieval component moves the strip plate 39 to the storage frame 4 containing the goods to be retrieved, according to the instructions of the control terminal 8. Subsequently, the X-axis motion mechanism extends the strip plate 39 to pick up the goods and retracts it, then transports the goods to the unloading platform 5.
[0031] Furthermore, such as Figure 4-5 As shown, in this embodiment, the Y-axis motion mechanism specifically includes: a rectangular Y-axis track frame 11 threadedly fastened to one side of the upper part of the outer frame 1; the bottom surface of the Y-axis track frame 11 and the side surface of the outer frame 1 are welded and fixed by two inclined brackets; two parallel first straight racks 12 are fixedly connected to the inner side of the long side of the Y-axis track frame 11, and the first straight racks 12 are laid on the inner bottom surface of the long side of the Y-axis track frame 11 for guiding the movement of the X-axis motion mechanism; both first straight racks 12 are rotatably connected to a first gear 13, and the first gear 13 can move along the first straight racks 12. The first gear 13 has an opening in the middle, and the first drive shaft 14 is keyed to the openings of the two first gears 13; the first motor 15 is a worm gear reducer motor, and its worm gear has a rotatable hollow sleeve in the center. The first drive shaft 14 passes through this hollow sleeve and is keyed to drive the first drive shaft 14 to rotate; the four corners of the Y-axis track frame 11 are also welded with first limit blocks 16, and the top of the first limit blocks 16 is provided with a circular buffer pad for limiting the two ends of the X-axis motion mechanism; the X-axis motion mechanism is installed above the Y-axis track frame 11.
[0032] Furthermore, such as Figure 4-5As shown, the X-axis motion mechanism specifically includes: a rectangular X-axis track frame 21 movably connected to the long side of the Y-axis track frame 11. Four X-axis rollers 22 are bolted to the bottom of the X-axis track frame 21, and the surfaces of the X-axis rollers 22 are in rolling contact with the upper surface of the Y-axis track frame 11, allowing them to roll along the upper surface of the Y-axis track frame 11. Two parallel second racks 23 are fixedly connected to the inner side of the long side of the X-axis track frame 21, and are laid on the inner bottom surface of the long side of the X-axis track frame 21 for guiding the movement of the Z-axis motion mechanism. Each of the two second racks 23 is rotatably connected to a second gear 24, which can roll horizontally along the second racks 23. An opening is provided in the middle of the second gear 24. The second drive shaft 25 is fixedly connected to the openings of the two second gears 24 via a key; the second motor 26 is a worm gear reducer motor, with a rotatable hollow sleeve at the center of its worm gear. The second drive shaft 25 passes through this hollow sleeve and is keyed to it to drive the second drive shaft 25 to rotate; second limit blocks 27 are welded to the top of the four corners of the X-axis track frame 21, and the top of the second limit blocks 27 is provided with a circular buffer pad for limiting the two ends of the Z-axis motion mechanism. The Z-axis motion mechanism is mounted on the top surface of the X-axis track frame 21. The first motor 15 is fixedly connected to the side of the X-axis track frame 21 to drive the X-axis motion mechanism to move horizontally. The setting of the X-axis roller 22 can improve the smoothness of the movement of the X-axis motion mechanism.
[0033] Furthermore, such as Figure 4-5 As shown, the Z-axis motion mechanism specifically includes: a rectangular Z-axis frame 31 movably connected to the long side of the X-axis track 21; four Z-axis rollers 32 are threadedly connected to the bottom of the Z-axis frame 31, and the surfaces of the Z-axis rollers 32 are in rolling contact with the upper surface of the X-axis track 21; a third motor 33 is bolted to the upper surface of the Z-axis frame 31, the third motor 33 is a worm geared motor, and its worm gear center has a rotatable hollow sleeve, through which a third drive shaft 34 passes and is keyed to the third motor 33; the two ends of the third drive shaft 34 are connected via... Two third gears 35 are fixedly connected by a key, and each third gear 35 is rotatably connected to a third spur rack 36. The third gears 35 can roll horizontally along the third spur racks 36. The bottom surfaces of the two third spur racks 36 are each fixedly connected to a lifting shaft 37 by bolts. A square lifting seat 38 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the lifting shaft 37. Two strip plates 39 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the lifting seat 38. The second motor 26 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the Z-axis frame 31 and is used to drive the Z-axis motion mechanism to move horizontally. The third motor 33 is used to drive the lifting seat 37 to move vertically. The Z-axis roller 32 can improve the smoothness of the Z-axis motion mechanism.
[0034] Furthermore, such as Figure 1-3As shown, two feeding plates 7 are fixedly connected to the middle of the top surface of the feeding platform 5, and the gap between the two feeding plates 7 allows two strip plates 39 to be inserted. This arrangement ensures that the strip plates 39 can smoothly receive glass blocks from the feeding platform 5 or smoothly place glass blocks on the feeding platform 5.
[0035] Furthermore, the glass block placement rack also includes a control terminal 8, which is electrically connected to the first motor 15, the second motor 26 and the third motor 33. By operating the control terminal 8, the three-dimensional storage and retrieval components can be controlled, so that the glass blocks can be picked up and put down without the need for staff to walk around the side of the rack, thereby reducing the workload of the staff.
[0036] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, the anti-drop baffle 6 has a U-shaped structure, which is set around the three sides of the storage frame 4 and completely covers the sides of the storage frame 4. The anti-drop baffle 6 is set to prevent the glass block from falling and getting damaged or hitting the staff during the transfer process.
