[0028] To facilitate a better understanding of this utility model, the following examples are provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. These examples fall within the protection scope of this utility model, but do not limit the protection scope of this utility model.
[0029] Example 1
[0030] An ammunition storage rack, such as Figures 1-4As shown, it includes: a longitudinal beam 1; a diagonal brace 2, located above the longitudinal beam 1 and arranged parallel to each other; several vertical support rods 3, spaced apart along the length of the longitudinal beam 1, with both ends connected to the longitudinal beam 1 and the diagonal brace 2 respectively; several horizontal support rods 4, spaced apart along the height of each vertical support rod 3; several brackets 5, spaced apart along the length of each horizontal support rod 4, with a through loading area 51 in the middle; the horizontal support rods 4 are perpendicular to the longitudinal beam 1 and the vertical support rods 3 respectively; the orientation of the loading area 51 is the same as the orientation of the longitudinal beam 1.
[0031] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the horizontal support rods 4 are arranged in pairs, one on each side of the vertical support rod 3 at the same horizontal height.
[0032] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the horizontal support rods 4 provided on each vertical support rod 3 can be staggered.
[0033] Forklift slots can be provided on the sides of the longitudinal beams for easy forklift transport when needed.
[0034] The connection between the vertical strut and the longitudinal beam, the diagonal brace, and the horizontal strut and the longitudinal beam can be a movable connection, such as a bolt connection. Multiple bolt holes can be set at appropriate positions on the longitudinal beam, diagonal brace, and vertical strut, which not only facilitates disassembly and assembly but also allows the installation position to be adjusted according to actual needs to meet the storage requirements of different munitions.
[0035] Both sides of the vertical support are equipped with horizontal support rods. In use, ammunition can be loaded on both horizontal support rods, which can increase the amount of ammunition that can be stored and improve the stability under stress.
[0036] The loading area is used to store ammunition, so its orientation should be consistent with the longitudinal beams, so that the ammunition can be fixed and stored using brackets on adjacent cross braces on the same side. Since the ammunition has a certain length, at least two brackets, one in front and one behind, are needed to fix it in its length direction. The specific number of brackets used can be adjusted according to the length of the ammunition.
[0037] To increase the storage capacity of ammunition, space needs to be fully utilized. The installation position of the cross braces can be adjusted according to the length and quantity of the ammunition to be stored. Staggered loading can accommodate more ammunition and improve space utilization.
[0038] Instructions for use: First, fix the longitudinal beam of the ammunition storage rack to the ground or the transport box; select an appropriate number of brackets according to the length of the ammunition, and ensure that the horizontal projections of these brackets can overlap; then, pass one end of the ammunition through the loading area of each bracket to the appropriate position; if there are multiple brackets on the same crossbar, they should be installed from the inside out; when it is necessary to remove the ammunition, simply move the ammunition outward from one end of the loading area of the bracket.
[0039] Example 2
[0040] like Figures 1-7 As shown, the bracket 5 also includes: a base 52, which is mounted on the cross brace 4; an upper pressure block 53, which is mounted above the base 52; and a locking member 54, one end of which is mounted on the base 52 and the other end of which is movably locked onto the locking groove on the side of the upper pressure block 53; the base 52 and the upper pressure block 53 together form a loading area 51.
[0041] like Figures 1-7 As shown, the bracket 5 also includes: a slot 55 located at the bottom of the bracket 5, which is openly mounted on the cross brace 4; a roller 56 located in the slot 55, which allows the bracket 5 to move along the length of the cross brace 4; and a fixing pin 57 that passes through the slot 55 and the cross brace 4 respectively to fix the bracket 5 on the cross brace 4.
[0042] like Figures 1-7 As shown, the bracket 5 also includes: a number of support blocks 58, which are spaced apart on the bracket 5 along the circumference of the loading area 51; the inner side of the support block 58 has an arc-shaped structure.
[0043] like Figures 6-7 As shown, the support block 58 is connected to the bracket 5 by a pivot, so that the support block 58 can rotate around the pivot to adjust its angle with the horizontal plane.
[0044] Since the horizontal support rod is located on the side of the vertical support rod, part of the bracket installed on the horizontal support rod will be located near the end of the vertical support rod. In this case, loading or unloading ammunition is relatively troublesome. To address this, rollers are installed at the bottom of the bracket. When the rollers are pushed by external force, they can move along the length of the horizontal support rod. After loading ammunition, the bracket can be moved inward to a suitable position on the horizontal support rod and then fixed. When unloading ammunition, the bracket can be moved outward to a suitable position and then removed. In this way, the efficiency of loading or unloading ammunition can be improved.
[0045] The base of the bracket and the upper pressure block are connected and fixed by a locking device, which is a movable connection to facilitate the storage and retrieval of ammunition. One end of the locking device is fixed to the base, and the other end is locked in a locking groove. The upper pressure block has multiple locking grooves distributed at different height positions, which allows the locking device to be in the locking groove, thereby adjusting the distance between the upper pressure block and the base, so that ammunition of different diameters can be stored stably. When loading ammunition, the locking device is first loosened, and then locked after loading. When removing ammunition, the locking device is first loosened and then removed.
[0046] Several support blocks with arc-shaped inner sides are spaced apart in the loading area to match the shape of the ammunition. These blocks can be used to clamp the ammunition and ensure that it is placed securely in the loading area. The support blocks can be fixed to the bracket by a pivot, so that the support blocks can rotate around the pivot at a certain angle, which is convenient for clamping ammunition of different diameters and ensuring the stability of the ammunition. The side of the support block that contacts the ammunition can be made of soft material to protect the ammunition.
[0047] Example 3
[0048] like Figure 1 , Figure 8 As shown, the ammunition storage rack also includes an extension rail 6, one end of which can be movably connected to the end of the horizontal support rod 4 that is not near the vertical support rod 3, so that the bracket 5 can move between the horizontal support rod 4 and the extension rail 6 via the roller 56.
[0049] Ammunition has a certain weight. In order to facilitate loading into or unloading from the loading area, the bracket needs to be moved to the end of the cross brace via rollers. When the ammunition storage rack is placed inside the box for transportation, the length of the cross brace is limited. Even if the bracket has been moved to the end, the limitation of the box (the end of the cross brace should be inside the box) will cause inconvenience to the operator in loading or unloading ammunition. To solve this problem, an extension guide rail is provided.
[0050] The extension guide rail and the end of the cross brace are movably connected, specifically by using a pin. Align one end of the extension guide rail with the end of the cross brace, and then secure it with the pin. After connection, the extension guide rail and the cross brace should face the same direction and have their tops flush, so that the bracket can move smoothly when transferred from the cross brace to the extension guide rail. The pin connection position should not affect the movement of the rollers or the bracket.
[0051] To meet safety requirements, existing grounding devices can be installed on the ammunition storage racks to achieve grounding and prevent static electricity from posing a danger to the stored ammunition.
[0052] When loading ammunition, first install and secure the extension rail, then remove the retaining pin on the bracket and pull it outwards. Multiple brackets used for securing one ammunition should be moved the same distance to a suitable position for loading, and then the locking mechanism should be tightened. After loading, push the ammunition to move the bracket inwards to the appropriate position, and then secure it with the retaining pin. After completing this operation, remove the extension rail. When removing ammunition, first install the extension rail, then remove the retaining pin on the bracket, pull the ammunition outwards to the appropriate position, loosen the locking mechanism, remove the ammunition, then reset the bracket and remove the extension rail.
