Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pallet manufacturing technology, and in particular to a novel foldable aluminum ingot transport pallet. Background Technology

[0002] Aluminum ingots are one of the important raw materials in industrial production. They are produced by electrolysis of alumina-crystal. Pallets are a medium that transforms static goods into dynamic goods. They are a type of cargo platform, and also a mobile platform, or a movable ground. During the storage and transportation of aluminum ingots, pallets are usually used at the bottom, and pallet jacks and forklifts are used for transportation.

[0003] Most existing pallets take up too much space when placed, are not convenient to fold and store, and can only bear weight during use without shock absorption or impact protection for aluminum ingots, making them very easy to fall off the pallet during transportation.

[0004] Therefore, those skilled in the art have provided a novel foldable aluminum ingot transport pallet to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a novel foldable aluminum ingot transport pallet. The pallet is folded using a foldable mechanism, which reduces shock to the aluminum ingots and prevents the pallet from being damaged by impact.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A novel foldable aluminum ingot transport pallet includes a base, a soft pad, and support legs. Support legs are provided at the four corners of the bottom of the base. A folding mechanism is provided at the top of the base. An anti-collision mechanism is provided inside the base. The lower end of the folding mechanism is connected to the pallet bottom plate.

[0008] The folding mechanism includes a first fixed plate, a slot, a locking block, a second fixed plate, a pivot, a hinge, a first ring buckle, a first buckle, and a locking block. The base has first fixed plates on both sides of its top end. The base and the first fixed plates are rotatably connected by hinges. The base has pivots on both sides of its top end. The two pivots have second fixed plates on them. The top end of the second fixed plate has a first ring buckle. The first ring buckle is fitted with a first buckle. The bottom end of the base has a locking block.

[0009] The above technical solution involves rotating two second fixing plates outwards via a pivot until they are parallel to the bottom of the base. Then, the first buckle on the second fixing plate engages with the locking block to prevent the second fixing plate from moving. Next, the first fixing plate located on the upper side of the base is folded inwards via a hinge until it is parallel to the bottom plate of the tray. Then, the first fixing plate on the other side is folded inwards until the locking block and the slot are fully engaged, thus folding the aluminum ingot tray. This greatly reduces the space required to place the aluminum ingot tray and makes it easier to store.

[0010] Furthermore, the anti-collision mechanism includes a mounting plate, a slide rail, a first spring, a pulley, a connecting block, an anti-collision rubber plate, a moving block, a slide groove, a slider, and a second spring. The mounting plate is fixedly connected to both sides of the base. The inner walls of the mounting plate are provided with slide rails on both sides. A connecting block is provided through both ends of one side of the mounting plate. An anti-collision rubber plate is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting block. A first spring is provided on the other side of the connecting block, and pulleys are provided at both ends. The other end of the first spring is fixedly connected to one side of the inner wall of the mounting plate. A slide groove is opened on one side of the mounting plate. A slider is provided at both ends of the slide groove. A moving block is fixedly connected to one side of the slider. The two moving blocks are connected by the second spring.

[0011] With the above technical solution, when the pallet is impacted, the anti-collision rubber plate is squeezed, causing the connecting block to move inward. The two connecting blocks drive the pulleys to move. One pulley slides on the slide rail, and the other pulley moves on the moving block. At the same time, the two first springs are compressed and in a compressed state, and the two sliders slide in the same direction in the slide groove, driving the two moving blocks to move. At this time, the second spring is in a compressed state. After the impact, the springs return to their original state, and the connecting block pushes the anti-collision rubber plate out. When the device is impacted, it can further reduce the impact effect on the pallet, play a buffering role, and reduce the occurrence of aluminum ingots falling during the transfer process.

[0012] Furthermore, a second ring buckle is provided at both ends of one side of the second fixing plate, and a second buckle is fitted on the second ring buckle. An L-shaped block is provided on both sides of the first fixing plate at the position corresponding to the second ring buckle.

[0013] With the above technical solution, when aluminum ingots need to be loaded, the second buckle on the second ring buckle can be engaged with the L-shaped block on the first fixing plate, so that the restored first fixing plate and the second fixing plate are connected and fixed to each other, thereby improving the stability of the pallet.

[0014] Furthermore, a soft pad is fixedly connected to one side of the first fixing plate, and the soft pad is located in the middle of the first fixing plate;

[0015] The above technical solution provides protection for the aluminum ingots by using a soft pad on the first fixing plate.

[0016] Furthermore, the second fixing plate and the first fixing plate are engaged with each other;

[0017] The above technical solution, through the cooperation between the first and second fixing plates, facilitates better folding of the tray and improves the folding effect.

[0018] Furthermore, pressure sensors are evenly arranged at the bottom end of the tray base plate, and a controller is provided on one side of the first fixing plate, with the pressure sensors electrically connected to the controller;

[0019] The above technical solution, through the installation of pressure sensors and controllers, facilitates the monitoring of the weight of the loaded aluminum ingots, preventing overloading and damage to the pallet.

[0020] Furthermore, square tubes are provided on both sides of the interior of the base;

[0021] The above technical solution facilitates pallet transportation by forklifts through the square tubes installed inside the base.

[0022] Furthermore, support legs are provided at the four corners of the bottom of the base, and anti-slip pads are provided at the bottom of each support leg;

[0023] The above technical solution, with its supporting legs and anti-slip pads, greatly improves the load-bearing capacity and stability of the pallet.

[0024] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0025] 1. This utility model proposes a novel foldable aluminum ingot transport pallet. The two second fixing plates are rotated outward by a pivot until they are parallel to the bottom of the base. Then, the first buckle on the second fixing plate is engaged with the locking block to prevent the second fixing plate from moving. Then, the first fixing plate located on the upper side of the base is folded inward by a hinge until it is parallel to the bottom plate of the pallet. Then, the first fixing plate on the other side is folded inward. The locking block is fully engaged with the locking slot and then the pallet is stopped. This allows the aluminum ingot pallet to be folded, which greatly reduces the space required to place the aluminum ingot pallet and makes it easy to store.

[0026] 2. This utility model proposes a novel foldable aluminum ingot transport pallet. When the pallet is impacted, the anti-collision rubber plate is squeezed, causing the connecting blocks to move inward. The two connecting blocks drive the pulleys to move. One pulley slides on the slide rail, and the other pulley moves on the moving block. At the same time, the two first springs are compressed and the two sliders slide in the same direction in the slide groove, driving the two moving blocks to move. At this time, the second spring is compressed. After the impact, the springs return to their original state, and the connecting blocks push the anti-collision rubber plate out. When the device is impacted, it can further reduce the impact effect on the pallet, play a buffering role, and reduce the occurrence of aluminum ingots falling during the transfer process.

[0036] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of specific embodiments. Obviously, the described specific embodiments are only a part of the specific embodiments of the present invention, and not all of them. Based on the specific embodiments of the present invention, all other specific embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0037] Reference Figure 1-6 The present invention provides a specific embodiment of a novel foldable aluminum ingot transport pallet, comprising a base 3, a soft pad 5, and support legs 6. Support legs 6 are provided at the four corners of the bottom end of the base 3, a folding mechanism 1 is provided at the top end of the base 3, and an anti-collision mechanism 2 is provided inside the base 3. The lower end of the folding mechanism 1 is connected to the pallet bottom plate 13.

The second fixing plate 104 and the first fixing plate 101 are engaged with each other. The first fixing plate 101 is fixedly connected with a soft pad 5 on one side. The soft pad 5 is located in the middle of the first fixing plate 101.

[0039] The two second fixing plates 104 are rotated outward by the pivot 105 until they are parallel to the bottom of the base 3. Then, the first buckle 108 on the second fixing plate 104 is engaged with the locking block 109 to prevent the second fixing plate 104 from moving. Then, the first fixing plate 101 located on the upper side of the base 3 is folded inward by the hinge 106 until it is parallel to the bottom plate 13 of the tray. Then, the first fixing plate 101 on the other side is folded inward. The locking block 103 is fully engaged with the locking groove 102 and then the tray is stopped, so that the aluminum ingot tray can be folded, which greatly reduces the weight of the tray. The reduced space required for aluminum ingot pallets makes them easier to store.

A controller 12 is provided on one side of the first fixed plate 101. The pressure sensors 4 are electrically connected to the controller 12.

[0041] When the pallet is impacted, the anti-collision rubber plate 206 is compressed, causing the connecting block 205 to move inward. The two connecting blocks 205 drive the pulley 204 to move. One pulley 204 slides on the slide rail 202, and the other pulley 204 moves on the moving block 207. At the same time, the two first springs 203 are compressed and in a compressed state, and the two sliders 209 slide in the same direction in the slide groove 208, driving the two moving blocks 207 to move. At this time, the second spring 210 is in a compressed state. After the impact, the springs return to their original state, and the connecting block 205 pushes out the anti-collision rubber plate 206, which plays a role in anti-collision buffering of the pallet and prevents the aluminum ingots from falling during the transfer. The pressure sensor 4 and the controller 12 are set to facilitate the monitoring of the weight of the loaded aluminum ingots and prevent overloading that could damage the pallet.

[0042] Square tubes 8 are provided on both sides inside the base 3. The square tubes 8 inside the base 3 facilitate the transport of pallets by forklifts.

[0043] Support legs 6 are provided at the four corners of the bottom of the base 3, and anti-slip pads 7 are provided at the bottom of each support leg 6. The support legs 6 and anti-slip pads 7 greatly improve the load-bearing capacity and stability of the pallet.

[0044] Working principle: When the tray is not in use, the operator can rotate the two second fixing plates 104 outwards via the pivot 105 until they are parallel to the bottom of the base 3. Then, the first buckle 108 on the second fixing plate 104 is engaged with the locking block 109 to prevent the second fixing plate 104 from moving. Then, the first fixing plate 101 located on the upper side of the base 3 is folded inwards via the hinge 106 until it is parallel to the bottom plate 13 of the tray. Then, the first fixing plate 101 on the other side is folded inwards, and the locking block 103 is fully engaged with the locking groove 102 before stopping, thus folding the aluminum ingot tray. When aluminum ingots need to be loaded, the operator first restores the first fixing plate 101 and the second fixing plate 104 to their original positions, and then engages the first buckle 108 on the second ring buckle 9. The two buckles 10 engage with the L-shaped block 11 on the first fixing plate 101, so that the restored first fixing plate 101 and the second fixing plate 104 are connected and fixed to each other. When the tray is impacted, the anti-collision rubber plate 206 is squeezed and drives the connecting block 205 to move inward. The two connecting blocks 205 drive the pulley 204 to move. One pulley 204 slides on the slide rail 202, and the other pulley 204 moves on the moving block 207. At the same time, the two first springs 203 are squeezed and are in a compressed state, and the two sliders 209 slide in the same direction in the slide groove 208, driving the two moving blocks 207 to move. At this time, the second spring 210 is in a compressed state. After the impact ends, the springs are restored, and the connecting block 205 pushes the anti-collision rubber plate 206 out.
