Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of material storage and retrieval technology, and in particular to a material rack. Background Technology

[0002] Sandblasting is an essential step in the production of many components (such as H-beams, T-beams, etc.). After the components are processed in other upstream processes, they are temporarily stored in a material rack. Then, the components are hoisted from the material rack and transported to the sandblasting machine by the crane on the sandblasting conveyor track for sandblasting.

[0003] The existing method of storing components in the material rack involves stacking them. After placing one layer of components, a partition is placed on top of the component, and then another layer of components is placed on the partition, and so on, to achieve stacked storage of materials. This method of storing components is inefficient, and when the crane arm retrieves materials, it can only lift one layer of components at a time, resulting in low component retrieval efficiency, which in turn leads to low sandblasting efficiency of the sandblasting machine. Utility Model Content

[0004] This application provides a material rack to solve the technical problem that existing material racks cannot achieve rapid storage and retrieval of materials.

[0005] This application provides a material rack for placing a component group. The component group includes a plurality of components evenly spaced along a vertical direction and a connecting assembly connecting the components. The material rack includes a frame and a support mechanism. The frame forms at least one material channel with an upward opening for the component group to pass through. The support mechanism includes a plurality of support members and a linkage member. The plurality of support members are spaced along a vertical direction on the frame and are respectively located on one side of the material channel. Each support member is connected by the linkage member. The support member located at the bottom is configured to rotate relative to the frame under the action of the component it contacts, and to cause each support member to rotate synchronously relative to the frame under the action of the linkage member, so as to switch between a support position and a storage position. In the support position, each support member is located within the movement path of the component group and supports the component accordingly. In the storage position, each support member located outside the bottom is located outside the movement path of the component group.

[0006] Optionally, the support member is hinged to the frame via a pivot. The support member has a support portion and a connecting portion located on both sides of the pivot. The support portion is used to support the component. The linkage member is hinged to a plurality of the connecting portions. The storage position is higher than the support position. The sum of the weights of the linkage member and the plurality of connecting portions is greater than the sum of the weights of the plurality of support portions. In the storage position, the support portion of the support member located at the bottom is located within the movement path.

[0007] Optionally, in the same support member, the weight of the connecting portion is greater than the weight of the support portion.

[0008] Optionally, the frame is provided with a plurality of limiting groups, each of the limiting groups corresponding to one of the supporting members. The limiting group includes a first limiting part and a second limiting part. In the supporting position, the first limiting part abuts against the corresponding supporting member, and in the storage position, the second limiting part abuts against the corresponding supporting member.

[0009] Optionally, along the vertical direction, the upright has multiple limiting holes, each limiting hole corresponding to a support member, the support member passing through the limiting hole, and the limiting hole forming the first limiting part and the second limiting part.

[0010] Optionally, the frame includes a base frame and an upright frame, the upright frame is fixed to the base frame, the upright frame forms at least one side wall of the material channel, and the support mechanism is installed on the upright frame; at least two support mechanisms are provided on the upright frame, the at least two support mechanisms are spaced apart along a first horizontal direction, and multiple support members at the same height support the same component.

[0011] Optionally, the support portion has a first surface and a second surface facing each other. In the support position, the first surface faces upward and is used to support the member. Along the direction from the support portion to the connecting portion, the distance between the first surface and the second surface gradually increases.

[0012] Optionally, the base frame is provided with a plurality of spaced uprights, and the uprights are paired in pairs to form an upright group. The two uprights in the upright group are arranged opposite each other, and the gap between the two uprights in the upright group forms the material channel. The two uprights in the upright group are symmetrically provided with the support mechanism.

[0013] Optionally, the tops of the two uprights in the upright assembly are respectively provided with a first guide and a second guide. The first guide and the second guide are arranged opposite to each other. Along the direction close to the base frame, the distance between the first guide and the second guide gradually decreases. The minimum distance between the first guide and the second guide is equal to the distance between the two uprights.

[0014] Optionally, multiple of the support frame groups are arranged side by side along the second horizontal direction, and two adjacent supports in two adjacent support frame groups are fixedly connected by a second crossbeam.

[0015] This application provides a material rack that, through a linkage, enables each support component to synchronously switch between a storage position and a support position. When no component group is placed on the material rack, the support components are in the storage position. By setting the bottom support component within the movement path of the component group, and the remaining support components outside the movement path of the component group, when the hoisted component group moves downward into the material channel on the material rack, the bottom component in the component group can contact the bottom support component on the material rack, and under the gravity of the component, drive the support component to rotate, causing the support component to switch from the storage position to the support position. Each support component rotates synchronously relative to the rack under the action of the linkage, so that each support component switches synchronously from the storage position to the support position. Each support component outside the bottom gradually enters the movement path of the component group, so that when the support component switches to the storage position, each support component supports the corresponding component, realizing the function of quickly storing multiple components in the component group. When the hoisting component group moves upward to leave the material channel, each support component can switch to the storage position under the linkage of the linkage component, and the support components located outside the bottom gradually leave the moving path of the component group, so that all the components in the component group can leave the material channel at one time, realizing the function of quickly taking out multiple components in the component group.

These drawings and descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the concept in any way, but rather to illustrate the concept of this application to those skilled in the art through reference to particular embodiments. Detailed Implementation

[0035] Exemplary embodiments will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings denote the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with this application. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of this application as detailed in the appended claims.

[0036] The terms “first,” “second,” “third,” “fourth,” etc. (if present) in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a particular order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of this application described herein can be implemented, for example, in a sequence other than those illustrated or described herein.

[0037] In this application, the terms "exemplarily" or "for example" are used to indicate examples, illustrations, or descriptions. Any embodiment or design described as "exemplarily" or "for example" in this application should not be construed as being more preferred or advantageous than other embodiments or designs. Specifically, the use of terms such as "exemplarily" or "for example" is intended to present the relevant concepts in a specific manner.

[0038] In related technologies, existing components are stored in a stacked manner in material racks. After placing one layer of components, a partition is placed on top of the component, and then another layer of components is placed on the partition, and so on, to achieve stacked storage of materials. This method of storing components is inefficient. Furthermore, the crane on the sandblasting conveyor track can only lift one layer of components at a time when retrieving materials, resulting in low component retrieval efficiency and consequently low sandblasting efficiency of the sandblasting machine.

[0039] In view of this, this application provides a material rack for placing component groups. The material rack is equipped with a support mechanism, which includes multiple support members and a linkage member. The linkage member enables each support member to synchronously switch between a storage position and a support position. When no component group is placed on the material rack, the support members are in the storage position. By setting the bottom support member to be located within the movement path of the component group, and the remaining support members located outside the movement path of the component group, when the component group is hoisted by a hook and lowered into the material channel on the material rack, the bottom component in the component group can contact the bottom support member on the material rack, and under the gravity of the component, drive the support member to rotate, causing the support member to switch from the storage position to the support position. Each support member rotates synchronously relative to the rack under the action of the linkage member, so that each support member switches synchronously from the storage position to the support position. Each support member located outside the bottom gradually enters the movement path of the component group, so that when the support member switches to the storage position, each support member supports each component accordingly, realizing the function of quickly storing multiple components in the component group. When the hoisting component group moves upward to leave the material channel, each support component can switch to the storage position under the linkage of the linkage component, and the support components located outside the bottom gradually leave the moving path of the component group, so that all the components in the component group can leave the material channel at one time, realizing the function of quickly taking out multiple components in the component group.

[0040] The technical solution of this application and how the technical solution of this application solves the above-mentioned technical problems are described in detail below with specific embodiments. These specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be described again in some embodiments. The embodiments of this application will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0041] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, this application provides a material rack for placing a component assembly 30. The component assembly 30 includes a plurality of components 500 evenly spaced vertically and a connecting assembly 600 connecting the components 500. The material rack includes a frame body 10 and a support mechanism 20. The frame body 10 forms at least one material channel 201 with an upward opening, which is used for the component assembly 30 to pass through. The support mechanism 20 includes a plurality of support members 300 and a linkage member 400. The plurality of support members 300 are spaced vertically on the frame body 10 and are respectively located on one side of the material channel 201. Each support member 300 is connected by the linkage member 400. The support member 300 located at the bottom is configured to rotate relative to the frame body 10 under the action of the component 500 in contact with it, and to cause each support member 300 to rotate synchronously relative to the frame body 10 under the action of the linkage member 400, so as to switch between a support position and a storage position. In the support position, each support member 300 is located in the movement path of the component assembly 30 (e.g., ...). Figure 1 Inside (as indicated by the hollow arrow), 300 support pieces correspond to support components 500; in the storage position, each support piece 300 located outside the bottom is outside the movement path of the component group 30.

[0042] It is understandable that the material rack is used to store components 500. Multiple components 500, spaced vertically, are connected by connecting components 600. This allows for the overall movement of the entire component assembly 30 by hoisting the component 500 located at the top of the assembly. When the material rack is used in sandblasting, the entire component assembly 30 can be hoisted onto the boom of the sandblasting conveyor roller, and then transported to the sandblasting machine for sandblasting operations. The component assembly 30 must pass through the material channel 201 on the material rack when being placed in and removed from it. The movement path of the component assembly 30 within the material channel 201 is its movement path. In the support mechanism 20, the bottom support member 300 refers to the support member 300 with the lowest installation height among the multiple support members 300.

[0043] When component group 30 is not placed in the material rack, each support member 300 is switched to the storage position via the linkage 400. At this time, the support member 300 at the bottom is within the movement path of component group 30, while the support members 300 outside the bottom are outside the movement path to avoid obstructing the movement path of component group 30.

[0044] When component group 30 needs to be stored in the material rack, it is hoisted by hook 700, allowing it to move downwards along the movement path. The bottom component 500 of component group 30 then contacts the support member 300 (i.e., the bottom support member 300 in support mechanism 20) located on the movement path. Under the weight of component 500, the support member 300 rotates relative to the frame 10, switching to a support position. The other support members 300, located outside the bottom, simultaneously switch to the support position under the action of linkage 400. During the switching process, the support members 300 gradually enter the movement path of component group 30, preventing components 500 above the corresponding support member 300 from passing downwards through it. When the support member 300 reaches the support position, each support member 300 can support its corresponding component 500, allowing one material channel 201 of the material rack to quickly store multiple vertically arranged components 500.

[0045] When component group 30 needs to remove the material rack, it moves upward along the movement path, causing each component 500 to gradually move away from its corresponding support 300. Driven by the linkage 400, each support 300 switches to the storage position, causing those outside the bottom to gradually move away from the movement path of component group 30. When the support reaches the storage position, all support 300 outside the bottom are outside the movement path of component group 30. At this point, the upward movement path of component group 30 is clear, allowing it to be quickly removed from the material channel 201, thus enabling the rapid removal of multiple vertically arranged components 500.

[0046] The aforementioned material rack enables rapid storage and retrieval of component 500, improving the storage and retrieval efficiency of component 500. At the same time, component group 30 can be directly hoisted onto the boom and enter the sandblasting machine for sandblasting operations, allowing the boom to hoist multiple components 500 simultaneously, thus improving the sandblasting efficiency of the sandblasting machine.

[0047] It should be noted that, within the same component group 30, the spacing between two adjacent components 500 should be sufficient to avoid the movement trajectory of the support 300 within the material channel 201 during rotation, thereby reducing interference between the support 300 and the component 500 when the support 300 switches between the storage position and the support position. In some optional embodiments, in the support position, the spacing between two adjacent support components 300 is approximately equal to the spacing between two adjacent components 500 within the component group 30.

[0048] In some alternative embodiments, the support member 300 is hinged to the frame 10 via a pivot 330. The support member 300 has a support portion 310 and a connecting portion 320 located on both sides of the pivot 330. The support portion 310 is used to support the member 500. The linkage member 400 is hinged to a plurality of connecting portions 320. The storage position is higher than the support position. The sum of the weights of the linkage member 400 and the plurality of connecting portions 320 is greater than the sum of the weights of the plurality of connecting portions 320. In the storage position, the support portion 310 of the support member 300 located at the bottom is located within the movement path.

[0049] By setting the storage position higher than the support position, when the support member 300 switches to the storage position, the support portion 310 rotates upward and the connecting portion 320 rotates downward. By setting the sum of the weight of the linkage member 400 and the multiple connecting portions 320 to be greater than the sum of the weight of the multiple support portions 310, when no component 500 is placed on the support member 300 or during the process of the component group 30 leaving the material channel 201, under the combined gravity of the linkage member 400 and the connecting portion 320, the connecting portion 320 will rotate downward, thereby allowing the support member 300 to automatically switch to the storage position under the action of gravity (e.g., ...). Figure 3 (As shown).

[0050] It is understood that the rotating shaft 330 can be fixed to the support member 300, and the rotating shaft 330 can be rotatably connected to the frame 10; the rotating shaft 330 can also be fixed to the frame 10, and the support member 300 can be rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 330. This disclosure does not specifically limit this. During the upward rotation of the support part 310 away from the rotating shaft 330, the distance between the end of the support part 310 away from the rotating shaft 330 and the side wall of the corresponding material channel 201 gradually decreases, thereby avoiding the component group 30 and allowing the component group 30 to move vertically upward and away from the material channel 201. Furthermore, the sum of the weight of a single component 500 and the weight of multiple support parts 310 should be greater than the sum of the weight of the connector and the multiple connecting parts 320, so that when a component 500 is placed on any support part 310 in the same support mechanism 20, the support member 300 can remain in the supporting position.

[0051] Of course, in other embodiments, a detection device can also be set to detect the position of the component in the material channel, and a driver linkage 400 can be set to connect to or to any support 300; when the detection device detects the component 500, the driver drives the linkage 400 to move or drives the support 300 to rotate, so that the support 300 switches to the support position to support the component 500; when the detection device does not detect the component 500, the driver drives the linkage 400 to move in the opposite direction or drives the support 300 to rotate in the opposite direction, so that the support switches to the storage position to avoid the component 500.

[0052] In some alternative embodiments, in the same support member 300, the weight of the connecting portion 320 is greater than the weight of the support portion 310.

[0053] By setting the weight of the connecting part 320 to be greater than the weight of the support part 310, the weight of the linkage 400 can be disregarded, thus enabling the sum of the weights of the linkage 400 and the multiple connecting parts 320 to be greater than the sum of the weights of the multiple connecting parts 320.

[0054] Combination Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in some optional embodiments, the support frame 200 is provided with multiple limiting groups, each limiting group corresponding to a support member 300. The limiting group includes a first limiting part 212 and a second limiting part 213. In the supporting position, the first limiting part 212 abuts against the corresponding support member 300, and in the storage position, the second limiting part 213 abuts against the corresponding support member 300.

[0055] By setting the first limiting part 212 and the second limiting part 213, the support member 300 can be limited, thereby controlling the angle between the support member 300 and the horizontal plane when the support member 300 is in the supporting position and the angle between the support member 300 and the horizontal plane when the support member 300 is in the storage position. For example, by adjusting the position or shape of the first limiting part 212, the supporting part 310 of the support member 300 can be limited to a horizontal state when in the supporting position, which can better provide support force to the component 500.

[0056] It is understood that when no limit group is set on the upright 200, the support position of the support member 300 can be limited by the contact between the support part 310 located at the bottom and the frame (10) (e.g., the base frame 100).

[0057] like Figure 4 As shown, in some alternative embodiments, a plurality of limiting holes 211 are opened on the frame 10 along the direction close to the base frame 100. Each limiting hole 211 corresponds to a support member 300. The support member 300 passes through the limiting hole 211, and the limiting hole 211 forms a first limiting part 212 and a second limiting part 213.

[0058] By providing a limiting hole 211 on the frame 10 and inserting the support member 300 through the limiting hole 211, the limiting hole 211 can limit the upward or downward rotation angle of the support member 300 during rotation. For example, when the support portion 310 of the support member 300 is inserted into the limiting hole 211, the lower wall of the limiting hole 211 constitutes the first limiting portion 212, and the upper wall of the limiting hole 211 constitutes the second limiting portion 213; as another example, when the connecting portion 320 of the support member 300 is inserted into the limiting hole 211, the upper wall of the limiting hole 211 constitutes the first limiting portion 212, and the lower wall of the limiting hole 211 constitutes the second limiting portion 213.

[0059] It should be noted that one end of the limiting hole 211 is connected to the material channel 201 so that the support member 300 can enter the support member 500 in the material channel 201. The greater the distance between the upper wall and the lower wall of the limiting hole 211, the greater the angle of rotation required for the support member 300 to switch between the supporting position and the storage position.

[0060] In order to better avoid the component assembly 30 when in the storage position, in some optional embodiments, the support portion 310 of the bottom support member 300 is located outside the limiting hole 211, while the support portions 310 of the other support members 300 are located inside the limiting hole 211. This prevents the support members 300 located outside the bottom from colliding with the component 500 during the process of the component assembly 30 entering the material channel.

[0061] like Figure 1 As shown, for the specific structure of the frame 10, in some optional embodiments, the frame 10 includes a base frame 100 and an upright frame 200. The upright frame 200 is fixed to the base frame 100 and forms at least one side wall of the material channel 201. The support mechanism 20 is installed on the upright frame 200.

[0062] It is understood that the base frame 100 provides a stable mounting foundation for the upright frame 200, enabling the upright frame to remain vertical. The upright frame 200 can work with other components to form a material channel 201. The aforementioned limiting hole 211 is also provided on the upright frame 200.

[0063] In some alternative embodiments, the support frame 200 is provided with at least two support mechanisms 20, which are spaced apart in the horizontal direction, and multiple support members 300 at the same height support the same component 500.

[0064] It can be understood that the first horizontal direction is the direction in which the sidewall of the material channel 201 extends on the horizontal plane. By setting multiple support mechanisms 20 along the first horizontal direction, when placing the component 500, the length direction of the component 500 is set along the first horizontal direction, so that multiple support members 300 at the same horizontal height can simultaneously support different positions of the component 500, thereby forming multi-point support for the component 500 and making the support of the component 500 more stable.

[0065] like Figure 1 As shown, for the specific structure of the support frame 200, in some optional embodiments, the support frame 200 includes at least two columns 210, each of which is vertically fixed on the base frame 100, and multiple columns 210 are spaced apart along the first horizontal direction. Any two adjacent columns 210 are fixedly connected by a first crossbeam 220, and the support mechanism 20 is disposed on the column 210.

[0066] The upright 200 is configured with multiple columns 210 connected by a first crossbeam 220, forming a frame structure. This reduces the weight of the upright 200 and helps to reduce the overall weight of the material rack. When multiple support mechanisms 20 are provided on the upright 200, different support mechanisms 20 can be respectively set on different columns 210.

[0067] In some alternative embodiments, the base frame 100 is provided with a plurality of spaced uprights 200, and the plurality of uprights 200 are paired in pairs to form an upright group. The two uprights 200 in the upright group are arranged opposite each other, and the gap between the two uprights 200 in the upright group forms a material channel 201. The two uprights 200 in the upright group are symmetrically provided with support mechanisms 20.

[0068] By forming a frame assembly from two uprights 200, a material passage 201 can be defined. At the same time, the support mechanisms 20 provided on the two uprights 200 can simultaneously support a component assembly 30. That is, in the supported position, the support members 300 of the same height on the two support mechanisms 20 jointly support a component 500.

[0069] Regarding the specific structure of the support portion 310, in some optional embodiments, the support portion 310 has a first surface 321 and a second surface 322 opposite to each other. In the support position, the first surface 321 faces upward and is used to support the member 500. Along the direction from the support portion 310 to the connecting portion 320, the distance between the first surface 321 and the second surface 322 gradually increases.

[0070] To better support the member 500, the first surface 321 can be positioned parallel to the horizontal plane at the support position. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the first surface 321 can be at an angle to the horizontal plane, so that it is inclined upwards relative to the horizontal plane, and the angle between the first surface 321 and the vertical plane is less than 90°, allowing the first surface 321 and the support frame 200 to jointly support the member 500. By gradually increasing the distance between the first surface 321 and the second surface 322 along the direction from the support 310 to the connecting part 320, a notch can be formed below the end of the support 310 furthest from the connecting part 320, reducing the rotation range of the support 310 and thus preventing collisions or interference between the support 310 and the member assembly 30.

[0071] Optionally, in the support position, the distance between two opposing support members 300 at the same height in the two opposing support mechanisms 20 is less than the width of the component 500, so that the component 500 can be placed on the two opposing support members 300 at the same height at the same time.

[0072] In order to place the component 500 more accurately on the support 300, in some optional embodiments, the tops of the two uprights 200 in the upright assembly are respectively provided with a first guide 250 and a second guide 260. The first guide 250 and the second guide 260 are arranged opposite to each other. Along the direction close to the base frame 100, the distance between the first guide 250 and the second guide 260 gradually decreases, and the minimum distance between the first guide 250 and the second guide 260 is equal to the distance between the two uprights 200.

[0073] The gap between the first guide 250 and the second guide 260 is used to allow the component assembly 30 to pass through, so that the component assembly 30 can be smoothly guided into the gap between the two uprights 200 (i.e., the material channel 201).

[0074] In some alternative embodiments, there are multiple support frame groups, with multiple support frames 200 arranged side by side along the second horizontal direction, and adjacent support frames 200 in two adjacent support frame groups are fixedly connected by a second crossbeam 230.

[0075] By setting multiple upright assemblies on the base frame 100, the material rack can hold more component assemblies 30. Furthermore, adjacent uprights 200 in two adjacent upright assemblies are fixedly connected by a second crossbeam 230, improving the stability of the uprights 200.

[0076] In some alternative embodiments, stiffening plates 240 are provided between the uprights 200 and the base frame 100 at both ends in the second horizontal direction. The stiffening plates 240 can make the connection between the uprights 200 and the base frame 100 more stable and reduce the swaying of the uprights 200.

[0077] In some alternative embodiments, the base frame 100 has multiple support pads 110 distributed at its bottom, which together support the base frame 100. This separates the base frame 100 from the ground, while the gaps between the support pads 110 allow ropes or forklift arms to pass through, facilitating the handling of the material rack by connecting ropes with lifting equipment or by forklift.

[0078] like Figure 7 As shown, for the specific structure of the connecting component 600 between components 500, in some optional embodiments, the connecting component 600 includes a first component 610 and a second component 620. The first component 610 and the second component 620 are arranged crosswise, and the middle part of the first component 610 is hinged to the middle part of the second component 620. The first end of the first component 610 and the first end of the second component 620 are respectively provided with a first upper hook 611 and a second upper hook 621 arranged opposite to each other. The second end of the first component 610 and the second end of the second component 620 are respectively provided with a first lower hook 612 and a second lower hook 622 arranged opposite to each other.

[0079] When using the linkage 400 to connect two adjacent vertical components 500, the first upper hook 611 and the second upper hook 621 are connected to the sides of the upper component 500, respectively, while the first lower hook 612 and the second lower hook 622 are connected to the sides of the lower component 500, respectively. During the hoisting of the component 500, the first lower hook 612 and the second lower hook 622 are subjected to the gravity of the lower component 500, preventing the first component 610 and the second component 620 from opening. When the lower component 500 is fully placed on the support 300, the first component 610 and the second component 620 can automatically open and separate from the component 500. This makes the placement of the component 500 more efficient and faster.

[0080] like Figure 8 As shown, in other embodiments, the structure of the connecting component 600 may include a first chain 630 and a second chain 640. By connecting the first hooks fixed at both ends of the first chain 630 to the same side of two adjacent components 500 respectively, and connecting the second hooks fixed at both ends of the second chain 640 to the other side of two adjacent components 500 respectively, the connection of two adjacent components 500 in the vertical direction can also be achieved.
