[0004] In real-world applications, the structural components of storage frames, such as columns and beams, are mostly manufactured using robotic automatic welding technology to ensure their structural strength and reliability. However, the storage of large, irregular items often requires more flexible and customized storage space. Since the structural components of storage frames are automatically welded by robots, their size and shape may be relatively fixed, making it difficult to meet the storage needs of all large, irregular items. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an economical and retractable storage frame. Since the structural components of the storage frame are automatically welded by robots, their size and shape may be relatively fixed, making it difficult to meet the storage needs of all large and irregular items, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an economical and retractable storage frame, comprising a support mechanism, a telescopic mechanism, and a connecting and stabilizing mechanism, wherein the support mechanism comprises a support frame, and columns are fixedly installed on both sides of the support frame, and the columns are retractable aluminum profile structures.

[0007] The telescopic mechanism includes two scissor bars with a scissor-like structure. A sliding component is fixedly installed at the upper end of each scissor bar, and a fixing component is fixedly installed at the bottom end of each scissor bar.

The first upper mounting plate, the third upper mounting plate, and the two second upper mounting plates form a U-shaped structure. The sliding component of the U-shaped structure is slidably connected to the support mechanism.

[0008] Preferably, a pivot pin is rotatably inserted at the middle position of the two scissor arms, and a second pivot pin is rotatably inserted at the point where the upper end of the scissor arm fits against the third upper mounting plate.

[0009] Preferably, the fixing assembly includes a second lower mounting plate that is attached to the bottom sidewall of the scissor lift, and a first lower mounting plate is fixedly mounted on both sides of the end of the second lower mounting plate away from the sidewall of the scissor lift.

[0010] Preferably, the fixing component is U-shaped and fixedly connected to the support mechanism, and a lower pin is rotatably inserted at the connection between the scissor bar and the second lower mounting plate.

[0011] Preferably, the connection stabilization mechanism includes a second fixing plate fixed to the side wall of the support mechanism, and a first fixing plate is fixedly installed on both sides of the top end of the second fixing plate.

[0012] Preferably, a fixed base plate is fixedly installed inside the two first fixed plates, and a connecting profile is installed on the upper surface of the fixed base plate.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] 1. This utility model can improve the utilization rate of warehouse space, reduce the procurement and maintenance costs of frames, adapt to dynamic warehousing needs, and promote the development of green logistics. The frame is telescopic in both height and length, and its size can be adjusted according to the incoming goods. It is a detachable unit that can be spliced ​​together, and the storage frame can also become an independent small module. It can be quickly assembled into a larger overall structure through pins. The telescopic frame can be adjusted to the required size after the goods arrive, based on the size of the goods. Heavy-duty wheels are provided under the frame for easy movement and adjustment. When not in use, the frame is retracted to its minimum size, reducing its height to a minimum for easy storage and without taking up too much space.

[0016] 2. This utility model utilizes a linkage between vertical telescopic extension and lateral expansion to increase shelf space utilization by 30%-50%, making it particularly suitable for irregularly shaped goods. Furthermore, the frame's volume when fully retracted is only 10%-15% of its expanded state, allowing for dense stacking when unloaded, thus freeing up warehouse space. It employs a non-powered manual adjustment system, resulting in manufacturing costs that are only 10%-30% of traditional electric telescopic shelves. Attached Figure Description

[0026] This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0027] Please see Figures 1 to 5 An economical and retractable storage frame includes a support mechanism, a telescopic mechanism, and a connecting and stabilizing mechanism. The support mechanism includes a support frame 11, with columns 10 fixedly installed on both sides of the support frame 11. The columns 10 have a telescopic aluminum profile structure. The telescopic mechanism includes two scissor arms 5 in a scissor-like structure. A sliding component is fixedly installed at the upper end of the scissor arms 5, and a fixing component is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the scissor arms 5. The sliding component includes a third upper mounting plate 3 that fits against the inner sidewall of the top of the scissor arms 5. Second upper mounting plates 2 are fixedly installed at both ends of the sidewalls of the third upper mounting plate 3 away from the scissor arms 5. A first upper mounting plate 1 is fixedly installed at the other end of the second upper mounting plate 2. The first upper mounting plate 1, the third upper mounting plate 3, and the two second upper mounting plates 2 form a U-shaped structure. The sliding component of the U-shaped structure is slidably connected to the support mechanism. The support frame 11 has a U-shaped structure, and three caster assemblies 9 are distributed at equal angles at the bottom end of the support frame 11.

[0028] A pivot pin 8 rotatably passes through the middle position of the two scissor lifts 5. A second pivot pin 17 rotatably passes through the upper end of the scissor lift 5 where it fits against the third upper mounting plate 3. The fixing assembly includes a second lower mounting plate 7 that fits against the bottom side wall of the scissor lift 5. A first lower mounting plate 6 is fixedly installed on both sides of the end of the second lower mounting plate 7 away from the side wall of the scissor lift 5. The fixing assembly is U-shaped and fixedly connected to the support mechanism. A lower pin 4 rotatably passes through the connection between the scissor lift 5 and the second lower mounting plate 7.

[0029] By adopting the above technical solution, the supporting moving mechanism uses aluminum profiles as the main material. Standard aluminum profiles are easy to purchase and easy to maintain. Aluminum profiles are lightweight, high-strength, corrosion-resistant, and suitable for long-term use. The column 10 uses telescopic aluminum profiles, which reduce the height when stored and increase the volume when unfolded. The column 10 is divided into two telescopic structures, upper and lower, which are fixed by bolts when telescopic. The bottom of the supporting moving mechanism has heavy-duty wheels connected to the profiles for easy movement. The supporting frame 11 is U-shaped, with the columns 10 on both sides of the supporting frame 11. The caster assemblies 9 are distributed at the bottom of the supporting frame 11 in three locations: left, center, and right.

[0030] The telescopic mechanism connects two sets of support mechanisms. The telescopic mechanism is a scissor type, with the scissor rod 5 made of aluminum profile and connected by a pivot pin 8 in the middle. The upper end of the scissor rod 5 has a sliding component made of POM material. POM is wear-resistant and self-lubricating, ensuring smooth sliding up and down. The first upper mounting plate 1, the third upper mounting plate 3, and the two second upper mounting plates 2 form a U-shaped encircling support mechanism. A second pivot pin 17 on the sliding component connects to the scissor rod 5. The lower end of the scissor rod 5 has a fixing component made of aluminum plate, which is fixed to the bottom of the support mechanism column 10. The telescopic mechanism consists of two scissor bars 5 in the middle, with a pivot pin 8 passing through the middle of the scissor bars 5. The upper end of the scissor bars 5 is connected to two sliding components. The front of the sliding components is a third upper mounting plate 3, with a pivot pin 8 fixed on it and connected to the upper end of the scissor bars 5. The second upper mounting plates 2 are connected to the third upper mounting plate 3 on both sides. The other side of the second upper mounting plate 2 is connected to the first upper mounting plate 1. The first upper mounting plate 1, the third upper mounting plate 3, and the two second upper mounting plates 2 form a U-shape. The lower end of the scissor bars 5 is connected to two fixing components. The front of the fixing components is a second lower mounting plate 7, with a lower pin 4 fixed on it and connected to the lower end of the scissor bars 5. The first lower mounting plates 6 are connected to the second lower mounting plate 7 on both sides.

[0031] Specifically, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, the connecting stabilizing mechanism includes a second fixing plate 15 fixed to the side wall of the support mechanism. First fixing plates 12 are fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the second fixing plate 15. Fixed base plates 13 are fixedly installed inside the two first fixing plates 12. Connecting profiles 16 are installed on the upper surface of the fixed base plates 13. The connection between the connecting profiles 16 and the fixed base plates 13 is fixedly inserted and connected by fixing pins 14. The connecting profiles 16 can be set to multiple different sizes. The size of the connecting profiles 16 can be adapted according to the usage requirements, thereby realizing the lateral expansion of the storage frame.

[0032] By adopting the above technical solution, the connecting and stabilizing mechanism is fixed by a fixing pin, which makes installation and disassembly convenient and quick. The fixed base plate 13 is installed on the support column 10, and the two sets of supporting moving mechanisms are made more stable by inserting the fixing pins 14 into both ends of the connecting profile 16. The fixed base plate 13 is fixed in the middle with a fixing pin 14, and the two sides of the fixed base plate 13 are connected to the first fixing plate 12. The second fixing plate 15 connects the fixed base plate 13 and the first fixing plate 12. The two ends of the connecting profile 16 are inserted into the fixing pins 14. The telescopic storage frame consists of six sets of supporting mechanisms, with telescopic mechanisms on both sides of the supporting mechanisms, and the connecting and stabilizing mechanism connecting the two sets of supporting mechanisms.

[0033] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
