Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of logistics and transportation technology, and in particular to a cargo cage for a cigarette transport vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the traditional vehicle-mounted cargo cages commonly used in the cigarette order packaging transportation sector are mostly fixed structures with non-adjustable side panel heights and a lack of effective cargo securing devices. This rigid design results in low space utilization of the cages, making it difficult to adapt to the loading requirements of cigarette order packages of different sizes, especially when dealing with irregularly shaped packaging or varying stacking heights, which easily leads to loading gaps. During transportation, the lack of lateral restraint makes the goods prone to displacement and collisions, resulting in a high rate of damage to cigarette order packaging. At the same time, the fixed side panel structure restricts the forklift operating space during loading and unloading operations, affecting loading and unloading efficiency.

[0003] Existing cargo cages mostly employ an integral welded frame structure. While this ensures the foundation's load-bearing strength, it suffers from drawbacks such as increased weight leading to higher transportation energy consumption and the inability to achieve modular assembly. Some improvements attempt to secure cargo by adding straps, but this adds an extra manual binding process and carries the risk of straps loosening. Furthermore, traditional cargo cage bottoms often use flat structures, which cannot effectively prevent cargo slippage during vehicle movement. Especially when lower-level cargo deforms under pressure, it can easily cause the entire stack to tilt, posing safety hazards and reducing the utilization rate of vehicle loading space.

[0004] During the transportation and delivery of cigarette packs for orders, delivery personnel need to easily move from one cargo cage to another within the transport vehicle. Therefore, the cargo cages need to be interconnected to meet the transportation and delivery requirements of cigarette packs for orders, achieving end-to-end delivery. However, traditional cargo cages do not meet this requirement. In summary, the existing cargo cage designs have many shortcomings, and there is an urgent need for a new type of cargo cage for cigarette transport vehicles to solve the above problems and improve transportation efficiency and safety. Summary of the Invention

[0015] 1. With its adjustable side panels and sliding plates, the cargo cage can flexibly adjust its internal space according to the size and stacking height of cigarette packs in a cigarette order, effectively reducing loading gaps and improving space utilization. It is especially suitable for loading irregularly shaped packaging or cigarette packs of different sizes in a cigarette order, enhancing the versatility and adaptability of the cargo cage;

[0016] 2. The tightening device (including reel, hook, and tightening rope) installed between the side cages can laterally restrain the goods, preventing displacement or collision during transportation and significantly reducing the damage rate of cigarette packs in cigarette orders. Meanwhile, the magnetic stabilizing tabs on the sides of the sliding plates further enhance the securing effect of the goods, preventing them from sliding or tilting.

[0017] 3. One side cage panel is connected to the base plate via a hinge, allowing it to be flipped open, providing more operating space for forklifts and significantly improving loading and unloading efficiency. The sliding plate is designed with handle grooves for easy manual adjustment, further simplifying the loading and unloading process. By designing the sliding plate, delivery personnel do not need to unload the cargo cage to retrieve goods during delivery, nor do they need to repeatedly enter and exit the truck to retrieve goods, thus improving transportation efficiency.

[0018] 4. The bottom plate adopts a hollow double-layer structure, which ensures load-bearing strength while reducing the weight of the cargo cage, thus reducing energy consumption during transportation. At the same time, the modular design makes the cargo cage easy to disassemble and assemble, facilitating transportation and storage.

[0019] 5. From sorting to delivery, the entire process is completed in one go according to the order of delivery, achieving a one-stop delivery method. This reduces the need for secondary sorting of cigarette packs in the middle and the need to sort out cigarette packs that have collapsed during transportation, thus improving delivery efficiency.
