[0023] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a metal washer holder is provided.

[0024] Example 1;

[0025] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the metal washer placement rack according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes a U-shaped frame 1. The top of the U-shaped frame 1 is provided with a plurality of evenly distributed columns 2. The outer wall of the columns 2 is fixedly fitted with a support plate 3. The top of the support plate 3 and located on both sides of the columns 2 are provided with symmetrically arranged arc-shaped clamping plates 4. The arc-shaped clamping plates 4 are connected to the columns 2 through elastic components. The bottom end of the columns 2 extends into the U-shaped frame 1 and is connected to a height adjustment component. The top of the U-shaped frame 1 is provided with a through hole 16 that matches the support plate 3.

[0026] Example 2;

[0027] like Figure 1-4As shown, the device includes a U-shaped frame 1, with several evenly distributed columns 2 at its top. A support plate 3 is fixedly fitted onto the outer wall of each column 2. Symmetrically arranged arc-shaped clamping plates 4 are located at the top of the support plate 3 and on both sides of the columns 2. The arc-shaped clamping plates 4 are connected to the columns 2 via elastic components. The bottom ends of the columns 2 extend into the U-shaped frame 1 and connect to a height adjustment component. A through hole 16 matching the support plate 3 is opened at the top of the U-shaped frame 1. Symmetrically arranged rollers 5 are provided on both sides of the bottom end of the U-shaped frame 1. The elastic component includes symmetrically arranged mounting sleeves 6 on the outer wall of each column 2. A matching sliding block 7 is provided in each mounting sleeve 6. The sliding block 7 is connected to the mounting sleeve 6 via a spring 8. A connecting rod 9 is provided on the side of the sliding block 7 away from the spring 8. The connecting rod 9 extends out of the mounting sleeve 6 and connects to the arc-shaped clamping plate 4. A sliding hole matching the connecting rod 9 is opened on one side of the mounting sleeve 6. When storing metal washers, the metal washers are strung on the column 2. At this time, the spring 8 presses the connecting rod 9 through the sliding block 7, and the connecting rod 9 presses the arc-shaped clamp 4. The arc-shaped clamp 4 is subjected to force to clamp and fix the inner wall of the metal washer. By setting the arc-shaped clamp and elastic components, the inner wall of the metal washer can be clamped and fixed to prevent loosening and make its storage more stable.

[0028] Example 3;

[0029] like Figure 1-4As shown, the device includes a U-shaped frame 1, with several evenly distributed columns 2 at its top. A support plate 3 is fixedly fitted onto the outer wall of each column 2. Symmetrically arranged arc-shaped clamping plates 4 are located at the top of the support plate 3 and on both sides of the columns 2. The arc-shaped clamping plates 4 are connected to the columns 2 via elastic components. The bottom ends of the columns 2 extend into the U-shaped frame 1 and connect to a height adjustment component. A through hole 16 matching the support plate 3 is opened at the top of the U-shaped frame 1. The height adjustment component includes a fixing plate 10 within the U-shaped frame 1. Several evenly distributed lead screws 11 are located at the top of the fixing plate 10. The top ends of the lead screws 11 extend into the columns 2. A guide plate 12 is fixedly fitted onto the outer wall of the U-shaped frame 1 and on both sides of the lead screws 11. Symmetrically arranged guide rods 13 penetrating the guide plate 12 are located at the top of the fixing plate 10 and on both sides of the lead screws 11. The bottom end of the lead screw 11 is connected to the fixed plate 10 via a bearing 14, and the bottom end of the lead screw 11 passes through the fixed plate 10 and is connected to the drive end of the servo motor 15. The bottom end of the column 2 has a threaded groove matching the lead screw 11, and the guide plate 12 has a sliding hole matching the guide rod 13. When it is necessary to remove the washer from the column 2, the servo motor 15 is started to drive the lead screw 11 to rotate, and the lead screw 11 drives the column 2 to move downwards. Since the inner diameter of the washer hole is smaller than the diameter of the support plate 3, and the outer diameter of the washer is larger than the diameter of the through hole 16, when the column 2 moves downwards, the washer is blocked by the U-shaped frame 1 and cannot move down. Therefore, when personnel remove the washer, it is not necessary to move the washer upwards to remove it from the column 2. The height of the column at the top of the U-shaped frame can be adjusted by setting a height adjustment component, making it convenient for personnel to pick up and store metal washers, and providing flexible and convenient use.

[0030] In practical applications, when storing metal washers, the metal washers are strung on the column 2. At this time, the spring 8 presses the connecting rod 9 through the sliding block 7, and the connecting rod 9 presses the arc-shaped clamp 4. The arc-shaped clamp 4 is forcefully clamped and fixed to the inner wall of the metal washer. By setting the arc-shaped clamp and elastic components, the inner wall of the metal washer can be clamped and fixed to prevent loosening and make its storage more stable. When it is necessary to remove the washer from the column 2, the servo motor 15 is started to drive the lead screw 11 to rotate. The lead screw 11 drives the column 2 to move downward. Since the inner diameter of the washer hole is smaller than the diameter of the support plate 3 and the outer diameter of the washer is larger than the diameter of the through hole 16, when the column 2 moves downward, the washer is blocked by the U-shaped frame 1 and cannot move down. Therefore, when the personnel remove the washer, there is no need to move the washer upward to remove it from the column 2. By setting the height adjustment component, the height of the column at the top of the U-shaped frame can be adjusted, which makes it convenient for personnel to pick up and store metal washers, and is flexible and convenient to use.

[0031] In summary, by means of the above-mentioned technical solution of this utility model, the inner wall of the metal washer can be clamped and fixed by setting the arc-shaped clamping plate and elastic component to prevent loosening and make it more stable to store. By setting the height adjustment component, the height of the column at the top of the U-shaped frame can be adjusted, making it convenient for personnel to pick up and store the metal washer, and making it flexible and convenient to use.

[0032] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
