Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of iron carriage technology, and in particular to a vertical waterproof structure for automobile carriages. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, there are various types of truck bodies on the market, including those with front and rear doors and those with side wings that open laterally. These side wings can be extended from the left and right sides to load large cargo, facilitating loading and unloading. However, this lateral design has certain problems. In rainy weather or when driving in the countryside, because the wings rotate at a certain angle towards the outside of the truck body, a rotating gap is formed between the wing and the truck body. This gap is designed to facilitate the opening and closing of the left and right wings, but with this design, rainwater can easily flow into the truck body through this gap, wetting the cargo and causing damage, while also keeping the truck body damp. In addition, the existing movable side wing structures are not strong enough and not stable enough, and are prone to damage after long-term use.

[0003] Therefore, based on customer feedback regarding the shortcomings of the existing structure, the inventors made further improvements to overcome the aforementioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a vertical waterproof structure for automobile compartments that has good waterproof function, effectively prevents rainwater from entering the interior of the compartment, and has high overall structural strength.

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a vertical waterproof structure for automobile carriages, including a carriage body, vertical beams, and water guide plates;

[0006] The carriage body includes an upper top surface and a lower bottom surface, with columns installed at the four corners of the upper top surface and the lower bottom surface. Two vertical beams are also installed, connected to the left and right sides of the upper top surface respectively. The vertical beams are horizontally arranged with the upper top surface of the carriage body, and a water collection trough is opened in the vertical beam. A long rod is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the water collection trough, and the long rod is hinged to an L-shaped side plate. The L-shaped side plate can rotate around the vertical beam through a drive mechanism, realizing the opening and closing of the L-shaped side plate on the side of the carriage body. Water guide plates are installed at the front and rear ends of the vertical beam, and the water guide plates are spaced at a certain distance from the two ends of the vertical beam. The rainwater collected in the water collection trough flows out from the distance between the ends.

[0007] During operation, the symmetrically arranged L-shaped side panels act as the left and right side covers of the carriage body, sealing the carriage. When the drive mechanism pushes the L-shaped side panels upward, they open. At this time, rain or water droplets enter the water collection groove in the vertical beam, preventing rainwater from entering the carriage when the L-shaped side panels are open. At the same time, if there is too much rainwater in the water collection groove, it will flow out with the end gap, achieving good waterproofing.

[0008] As a preferred technical solution of this application, there are four drive mechanisms, which are respectively installed in four columns. The drive structure is a hydraulic cylinder mechanism, and the extension rod of the hydraulic cylinder mechanism is hinged to the L-shaped side plate.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the carriage body, columns, vertical beams and two L-shaped side plates are all made of iron.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the vertical beam further includes a bending plate. A bending plate is connected to both sides of the water collection tank. The bending plate bends in the same direction and is perpendicular to the side of the water collection tank. One side of the bending plate is connected to the side of the top surface of the carriage body, thereby connecting the vertical beam to the carriage body.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution of this application, when the hydraulic cylinder mechanism retracts and the L-shaped side plate rotates downward to close the carriage, the upper surface of the bending plate on the other side of the water collection tank abuts against the inner bottom surface of the short side of the L-shaped side plate, so that the L-shaped side plate is stably supported and the structural strength is improved.

[0012] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the vertical beam is opened along the side length direction of the carriage body, and the long rod in the vertical beam is arranged along the length direction of the vertical beam.

[0013] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the water guide plate is made of iron material, and the water guide plate is fixedly connected to the four corners of the carriage body, and the surface of the water guide plate is perpendicular to the end of the vertical beam.

[0014] As a preferred technical solution of this application, multiple reinforcing ribs are provided between the short and long sides of the L-shaped side plate. The multiple reinforcing ribs are arranged at a certain interval and are triangular in shape, which makes the L-shaped side plate structure stronger.

[0015] This utility model has the following advantages:

[0016] (1) It has good waterproof function and effectively prevents rainwater from entering the interior of the carriage;

[0017] Because the left and right wings of the truck body rotate to open and close, there is a gap between the truck body and the wings. On rainy days, rainwater can easily flow into the truck body through this gap, damaging the goods or causing the interior of the truck body to become damp. This solution connects the vertical beam with a water collection trough to the top surface of the truck body. Whether the L-shaped side panels are opened or closed, rainwater will fall into the water collection trough and will not enter the truck body. Finally, it will flow out from the water guide plates at both ends, thus effectively waterproofing the truck.

[0018] (2) The overall structure is stable and has higher structural strength;

[0019] The existing left and right movable side wing door structures of automobile compartments are not strong enough and not stable enough. The vertical beams in this solution have bent plates. Through the cooperation of the bent plates and the L-shaped side plates, the structural strength of the L-shaped side plates is higher when closed. At the same time, the L-shaped side plates in this solution are equipped with reinforcing ribs, which makes the overall structural strength of the L-shaped side plates even higher.

Detailed Implementation

[0029] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the following description.

[0030] It should be noted that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by terms such as "left" and "right" is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship that the product of this invention is usually placed in during use, or the orientation or positional relationship that is commonly understood by those skilled in the art. Such terms are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0031] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features and technical solutions in the present invention can be combined with each other.

[0032] Therefore, based on the above issues, please refer to Figure 1 This utility model proposes a vertical waterproof structure for automobile compartments to solve the problem.

[0033] See Figures 1 to 8 The proposed implementation scheme provides a vertical waterproof structure for automobile carriages, including a carriage body 14, a vertical beam 1, a column, and a water guide plate 7.

[0034] Among them, see Figure 1 The carriage body 14 is a rectangular carriage, and the carriage body 14 includes an upper top surface 13 and a lower bottom surface. The upper top surface 13 and the lower bottom surface are separated by a certain distance for storing goods. Four columns are respectively set at the four corners of the upper top surface 13 and the lower top surface, and the columns play a supporting and connecting role.

[0035] Among them, see Figures 1-2 The top surface 13 of the carriage body 14 is fixedly connected to a vertical beam 1 on both sides. A water collection trough 2 is opened in the vertical beam 1 and is set horizontally upward to collect rainwater. A long rod 3 is set on the bottom surface of the water collection trough 2. The long rod 3 is movably hinged to an L-shaped side plate 5. The L-shaped side plate 5 has a short side 11 and a long side 12 that are perpendicularly connected to each other. The short side 11 is hinged to the long rod 3, and the long side 12 is located on the left and right sides of the carriage body 14 as a movable side wing.

[0036] Among them, see Figure 3 The L-shaped side plate 5 can rotate around the vertical beam 1 through the drive mechanism, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the left and right sides of the carriage body 14. A total of four drive mechanisms are respectively set in the four columns. The drive mechanism extends a telescopic rod 10 and is connected to the L-shaped side plate 5.

[0037] Among them, see Figure 2A water guide plate 7 is provided at the front end of the vertical beam 1. The water guide plate 7 is fixedly installed on the top surface 13 of the carriage body 14, and the surface of the water guide plate 7 is perpendicular to the end of the vertical beam 1. The water guide plate 7 is a certain distance away from the end of the vertical beam 1. When too much rainwater accumulates in the water collection trough 2, the water can flow out from the end.

[0038] During operation, the L-shaped side panels 5 located on the left and right sides of the carriage body 14 are pushed upward by the drive mechanisms at the four corners, thereby opening the left and right sides of the carriage body 14. At this time, goods are loaded. Since the L-shaped side panels 5 are hinged to the vertical beam 1, their rotation gap is the water collection trough 2 in the vertical beam 1. Rainwater falls into the water collection trough 2 and does not enter the carriage. At the same time, when there is too much rainwater in the water collection trough 221, it will flow out with the end gap, achieving good waterproofing.

[0039] Currently available side-opening car bodies often suffer from water damage or when driving in the wild. The wings typically open and close by rotating around the roof of the car body. However, this rotation creates a gap at the connection between the wing and the car body, allowing rainwater to easily seep into the interior, damaging cargo or causing dampness and inconvenience. Therefore, this design proposes a vertical waterproof structure for the car body. A vertical beam 1 is fixed to the top of the car body 14, and a water collection trough 2 is installed within the beam 1. An L-shaped side plate 5 is hinged to the water collection trough 2 as a side wing, effectively turning the rotation gap into the space within the water collection trough 2. Rainwater falls directly into the trough 2 and does not enter the car body. Simultaneously, water guide plates 7 are installed at both ends of the vertical beam 1 to divert excess water from the water collection trough 2, effectively waterproofing the car body.

[0040] It should be noted that, in addition to the top surface 13, bottom surface and left and right L-shaped side panels 5, the body 14 of the carriage in this scheme also has a rear panel. The rear panel is connected to the column and can be opened and closed to facilitate loading and unloading of goods. Furthermore, the carriage in this scheme is made of iron, and the vertical beam 1 used accordingly is also made of iron.

[0041] In this embodiment, see Figure 2 For the drive mechanism, four drive mechanisms are installed in four columns respectively. The columns have slots for installing the drive mechanisms. The drive mechanism is a hydraulic cylinder mechanism 4. A telescopic rod 10 is set upward on the hydraulic cylinder mechanism 4. The end of the telescopic rod 10 is hinged to the L-shaped side plate 5, which makes it easy to start the hydraulic cylinder so that when the telescopic rod 10 moves upward, it pushes the L-shaped side plate 5 upward. At the same time, the L-shaped side plate 5 is hinged to the end of the telescopic rod 10, so the L-shaped side plate 5 can rotate and open around the long rod 3 in the vertical beam 1.

[0042] It should be noted that it can also be driven by electric motors or pneumatics.

[0043] In this embodiment, see Figure 4 For the vertical beam 1, the vertical beam 1 also includes bending plates, which are divided into inner bending plates 8 and outer bending plates 9 (according to their installation positions). The water collection trough 2 of the vertical beam 1 is a rectangular groove, and a bending plate is connected to each side of the rectangular groove. The two bending plates are bent in the same direction and are perpendicular to the side of the water collection trough 2. The inner bending plate 8 is fixedly connected to the side of the upper top surface 13 of the carriage body 14, so that the vertical beam 1 is connected to the carriage body 14. The outer bending plate 9 of the vertical beam 1 is used to improve the structural strength of the L-shaped side plate 5. When the compression rod of the hydraulic cylinder mechanism 4 retracts, it causes the L-shaped side plate 5 to rotate and close the carriage downward. The inner bottom surface of the L-shaped side plate 5 contacts the upper surface of the outer bending plate 9, so that the L-shaped side plate 5 is stably supported by the outer bending plate 9, thereby improving the structural strength of the L-shaped side plate 5.

[0044] Furthermore, the vertical beam 1 is opened along the side length of the carriage body 14, and is tightly fitted and fixed to the carriage body 14 through the inner bending plate 8. At the same time, the long rod 3 in the vertical beam 1 is also opened along the length of the vertical beam 1.

[0045] In this embodiment, see Figures 2-3 The water guide plate 7 has a side plate and a bottom plate. The side plate of the water guide plate 7 is fixedly installed at the four corners of the body 14 of the car body, and the side plate is perpendicular to the end of the vertical beam 1 and is separated from the vertical beam 1 by a certain distance. The bottom plate is connected to the bottom of the water collection tank 2 of the vertical beam 1. When there is too much water in the water collection tank 2, it is led out through the water guide plates 7 at both ends to better waterproof the car body.

[0046] This invention has a simple structure and a novel design. By designing a vertical beam 1 structure, it can prevent water from entering to the greatest extent and avoid water retention that could cause corrosion to the carriage under various conditions.

[0047] Furthermore, the L-shaped side plate 5 is provided with multiple reinforcing ribs 6, which are located at the connection between the short and long sides 12 of the L-shaped side plate 5. The multiple reinforcing ribs 6 are arranged at a certain distance from each other and are triangular in shape, which provides high stability and makes the overall structural strength of the L-shaped side plate 5 even higher.

[0048] Working principle: The vertical waterproof structure of the car body in this solution can effectively prevent rainwater from the roof from entering the car body during rainy days. Specifically, as described in the invention description: In this solution, a vertical beam 1 is connected to the top of the car body 14. An L-shaped side plate 5 is hinged in the vertical beam 1 as the side wing of the left and right opening and closing doors. When the drive mechanism is activated and pushed upward to open the L-shaped side plate 5, the goods are put in. At this time, the rainwater will fall into the water collection groove 2 of the vertical beam 1, thus preventing rainwater from entering the car body. Then, it flows out from the water guide plate 7 at one end, thus preventing it from seeping into the interior of the car body. When the drive mechanism retracts the telescopic rod 10, the L-shaped side plate 5 closes. At this time, the inner bottom surface of the short side 11 of the L-shaped side plate 5 contacts the upper surface of the outer bending plate 9 of the vertical beam 1, improving the structural stability of the L-shaped side plate 5.

[0049] Some truck bodies with side-opening wings often rely on these wings rotating around the roof to open and close, creating a gap between the truck body and the wings. During rainy weather, rainwater easily seeps into the truck body through this gap, damaging goods or causing dampness and inconvenience. Furthermore, existing movable wing structures are not strong enough or stable. This design proposes a vertical waterproof structure. A vertical beam 1 connects to the top surface 13 of the truck body 14. An L-shaped side plate 5 is hinged to the vertical beam 1 via a long rod 3, serving as the wings for the left and right opening doors of the truck body 14. The vertical beam 1 has a water collection trough 2, which collects rainwater, preventing it from entering the truck body. Rainwater then flows out through the guide plates 7 at both ends, thus avoiding seepage into the truck body. Additionally, the vertical beam 1 includes a bending plate. The bending plate, in conjunction with the L-shaped side plate 5, increases the structural strength and stability of the L-shaped side plate 5 when closed.

[0050] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
