Detailed Implementation
[0021] To make the technical problems, technical solutions, and beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
[0022] Example 1
[0023] Reference Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this application discloses an adjustable material storage rack for AGV vehicles, including a chassis 1 and a platform 2 mounted thereon. Multiple hydraulic push rods 101 are also installed on the top of the chassis 1. The platform 2 is mounted on the output end of the hydraulic push rods 101. An equipment slot 201 is formed in the middle of the platform 2. Threaded sleeves 203 are installed at the four corners of the equipment slot 201. A protective panel 202 is placed on top of the equipment slot 201. Screws 204 that engage with the threaded sleeves 203 are provided at the four corners of the protective panel 202. Anti-slip grooves are formed on the top surfaces of both the protective panel 202 and the platform 2. Through the cooperation of the screws 204 and the threaded sleeves 203, the protective panel 202 can be easily fixed above the equipment slot 201, facilitating the protection of the internal structure of the equipment slot 201. The threaded sleeves 203 can also support the protective panel 202, preventing pressure on the equipment inside the equipment slot 201.
[0024] Reference Figures 2 to 4 As shown, horizontal frames 3 are movably installed on both sides of the equipment slot 201. Vertical frames 301 for clamping objects are also fitted onto the outer ends of the horizontal frames 3. Counterweights 305 are installed on the sides of the horizontal frames 3 extending into the equipment slot 201. The equipment slot 201 also includes a mechanism for adjusting the position of the counterweights 305. This mechanism includes two electric push rods 308. The output shafts of the electric push rods 308 extend into the equipment slot 201 and are fitted with limit slides 306. Two oblique connecting rods are hinged to both sides of the limit slides 306. The outer ends of the two diagonal connecting rods 307 are hinged to the counterweights 305 on the corresponding side. In order to facilitate the adjustment of the position of the horizontal frame 3, with the cooperation of the electric push rod 308, the limiting slide 306 can be pushed to slide in the equipment slot 201. With the cooperation of the two diagonal connecting rods 307, the two counterweights 305 can be squeezed or pulled away from each other or closer to each other, thereby pushing the two horizontal frames 3 to move. The vertical frame 301 installed on the end of the horizontal frame 3 can clamp and block the object to keep it stable.
[0025] Reference Figures 2 to 5As shown, the outer end of the horizontal frame 3 is also provided with an upward-facing flange 302. The two flanges 302 on the same horizontal frame 3 are connected by the same rotating shaft 303. The bottom of the vertical frame 301 is fitted onto the rotating shaft 303. A torsion spring 304 is also installed between the two sides of the vertical frame 301 and the flange 302 on the corresponding side. The torsion spring 304 pushes the vertical frame 301 to flip to one side of the horizontal frame 3. Furthermore, the vertical frame 301 is installed between the two flanges 302 of the horizontal frame 3 via the rotating shaft 303. A torsion spring 304 is also provided between the vertical frame 301 and the flange 302. With the cooperation of the torsion spring 304, the vertical frame 301 can be pushed to flip towards the horizontal frame 3. After placing an object, it can hold the object in a certain way and keep it stable. When not in use, the vertical frame 301 will flip and fit against the horizontal frame 3, reducing the space occupied, which is quite practical.
[0026] All standard parts used in this utility model can be purchased from the market, and irregular parts can be customized according to the description and drawings. The specific connection methods of each part adopt conventional methods such as bolts, rivets, and welding that are mature in the prior art. The machinery, parts and equipment adopt conventional models in the prior art, and the circuit connection adopts conventional connection methods in the prior art, which will not be described in detail here.
[0027] Furthermore, any content not described in detail in this specification is existing technology known to those skilled in the art.
[0028] The implementation principle of the adjustable material storage rack for AGV vehicles in this application is as follows:
[0029] In use, the platform 2 can be driven to rise and fall vertically by multiple hydraulic push rods 101 installed on the top of the chassis 1, so as to meet the needs of storing and retrieving objects at different heights. The precise control of the hydraulic push rods 101 can realize the smooth rise and fall of the platform 2. The equipment slot 201 opened in the middle of the platform 2 is equipped with a threaded sleeve 203, and the protective panel 202 is fixed by screws 204 to form protection for the internal structure of the equipment slot 201. The protective panel 202 and the surface of the platform 2 are both provided with anti-slip grooves, which can enhance the stability of the objects placed.
[0030] Furthermore, the horizontal frame 3 achieves position adjustment through the counterweight bar 305 and the take-up and put-down mechanism. The core of the take-up and put-down mechanism is the electric push rod 308, which pushes the limit slide 306 to slide, causing the two diagonal connecting rods 307 on both sides to squeeze or pull the counterweight bar 305, so that the two horizontal frames 3 move away or closer at the same time, thereby adjusting the clamping distance. The vertical frame 301 at the outer end of the horizontal frame 3 is connected to the torsion spring 304 through the rotating shaft 303. When the object is placed, the torsion spring 304 pushes the vertical frame 301 to flip inward to form a clamping force; when unloaded, it automatically rebounds and fits the horizontal frame 3, reducing the space occupied and making it convenient and practical.
[0031] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments.
