Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food truck technology, and in particular to an installation component and a canopy carriage made of aluminum profile. Background Technology

[0002] In the food transportation sector, canopy-covered compartments are typically installed on food trucks to protect food from external environmental influences during transport. However, existing canopy-covered compartment installation methods and structures have some shortcomings:

[0003] Poor shock resistance: During the operation of food trucks, the canopy compartment is prone to shaking due to uneven road surfaces and other reasons. The existing canopy compartment lacks an effective buffer and shock absorption structure, which causes the impact force generated by the shaking to be directly transmitted to the food truck and the food. This not only generates a lot of noise, but may also damage the food and the canopy compartment, affecting the quality of food transportation.

[0004] Installation is inconvenient: Traditional canopy carriage installation methods are relatively complicated, requiring a lot of time and manpower, and the stability after installation is poor, which can easily lead to loosening and other problems, increasing maintenance costs and safety hazards.

[0005] Insufficient strength: Some canopy carriages have unreasonable structural designs and low strength, making them prone to deformation or damage when subjected to external impacts, failing to effectively protect food and shortening the service life of the canopy carriages.

[0006] To address the aforementioned issues, this application proposes an installation assembly and a canopy carriage made of aluminum profiles. Utility Model Content

[0007] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as poor shock resistance of food trucks: during the operation of food trucks, the canopy compartment is prone to shaking due to uneven road surfaces, and existing canopy compartments lack effective cushioning and shock absorption structures. This causes the impact force generated by the shaking to be directly transmitted to the food truck and the food, resulting in significant noise and potential damage to both the food and the canopy compartment, affecting the quality of food transportation. Installation is also inconvenient: traditional canopy compartment installation methods are complex, requiring considerable time and manpower, and the stability after installation is poor, easily leading to loosening and other problems, increasing maintenance costs and safety hazards. Furthermore, some canopy compartments have unreasonable structural designs and low strength, making them prone to deformation or damage under external impact, failing to effectively protect the food and shortening the service life of the canopy compartment. Therefore, this invention proposes an installation component and an aluminum profile canopy compartment.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0009] An installation component includes:

[0010] The U-shaped frame has an open bottom and horizontal plates that slide through both sides. A limit block is fixedly connected to one end of each horizontal plate, and a triangular plate is fixedly connected to the other end of each horizontal plate. The two triangular plates are close to each other at their closest ends and touch each other. A pushing component is provided at the top of the U-shaped frame to push the two triangular plates away from each other.

[0011] A buffer assembly for buffering is provided on one side of the triangular plate;

[0012] Both sides of the U-shaped frame are equipped with mounting mechanisms for installing the U-shaped frame.

[0013] In one possible design, the pushing assembly includes a sliding rod that slides through the top of the U-shaped frame. A side fixing block is fixedly connected to the top of the sliding rod, and a pressure plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding rod inside the U-shaped frame. Both sides of the bottom of the pressure plate are arc-shaped. The pressure plate is located between two triangular plates and is used to push the two triangular plates away from each other.

[0014] In one possible design, the cushioning assembly includes a spring fixedly connected to one side of a triangular plate, the other end of which is fixedly connected to the inner wall of one side of a U-shaped frame. A rubber block is fixedly connected to one side of the triangular plate, and one side of the rubber block abuts against the inner wall of one side of the U-shaped frame.

[0015] In one possible design, the mounting mechanism includes two ear plates integrally formed on both sides of the U-shaped frame, and two symmetrically arranged mounting holes are opened inside the ear plates, with fixing screws passing through the internal threads of the mounting holes.

[0016] A canopy carriage made of aluminum profile includes an installation assembly as described above, and also includes a food cart body and a canopy carriage body. The installation assembly is used to fix the food cart body and the canopy carriage body. The food cart body is fixedly connected to a U-shaped frame, the canopy carriage body is placed on top of the food cart body, and one side of the canopy carriage body is fixedly connected to one side of a plurality of side fixing blocks.

[0017] In one possible design, two symmetrically arranged longitudinal support rods are fixedly connected between the inner walls of the bottom two sides of the canopy carriage body. Multiple U-shaped support rods are fixedly welded to the inner wall of the canopy carriage body. The multiple U-shaped support rods are arranged in parallel inside the canopy carriage body. Multiple strip-shaped reinforcing rods for increasing strength are welded between the multiple U-shaped support rods. Strip-shaped rubber pads are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the canopy carriage body.

[0018] In one possible design, a protective door panel is hinged to the top of one of the longitudinal support rods. Two symmetrically arranged handles are fixedly connected to one side of the protective door panel. Two symmetrically arranged hooks are fixedly connected to one side of the canopy body. Fasteners are fixedly connected to both sides of the protective door panel. The fasteners cooperate with the hooks and are used to limit the movement of the protective door panel.

[0019] In this application, during use, the main body of the canopy compartment is hoisted to the top of the food truck body. At this time, the bottom of multiple U-shaped frames abuts against the top of the food truck body. Multiple U-shaped frames are fixedly installed on the top of the food truck body by fixing screws and mounting holes. At this time, the main body of the canopy compartment abuts against the top of the food truck body through the strip rubber pad at the bottom.

[0020] When the main body of the canopy carriage shakes up and down, the strip rubber pad is squeezed, which reduces noise and provides cushioning. The main body of the canopy carriage moves the side fixing block down, which in turn moves the sliding rod down. The sliding rod then moves the pressure plate to push the two triangular plates away from each other. The triangular plates squeeze the spring and the rubber block, and the rubber block rubs against the inner wall of the U-shaped frame, which provides cushioning again. When the shaking stops, the main body of the canopy carriage and the triangular plates slowly return to their original positions.

[0021] When the main body of the food cart moves, the buckles and hooks engage to ensure the stability of the protective door panel. The handle helps to open the protective door panel, and the longitudinal support rod helps to improve the strength of the canopy carriage body. The U-shaped support rod and strip reinforcement rod can further improve the strength of the canopy carriage body and extend the service life of the device.

[0022] Beneficial effects:

[0023] The main body of the canopy carriage is in contact with the main body of the food truck through strip rubber pads. When the main body of the canopy carriage shakes up and down, the strip rubber pads are squeezed, which can reduce noise and achieve initial cushioning.

[0024] When the device shakes, the side fixing block moves the sliding rod and pressure plate downwards, pushing the two triangular plates away from each other. The triangular plates squeeze the spring and rubber block, and the rubber block rubs against the inner wall of the U-shaped frame, achieving buffering again. When the shaking stops, the main body of the canopy and the triangular plates slowly return to their original positions. This double buffering structure greatly improves the shock resistance of the device and protects the items inside the main body of the canopy and the food cart.

[0025] The bottom of the U-shaped frame is arc-shaped, and horizontal plates slide through both sides. Limiting blocks and triangular plates are connected to the two ends of the horizontal plates, respectively. Through the cooperation of the pushing component and the buffer component, the U-shaped frame has a certain stability and buffering capacity during installation and use.

[0026] The installation mechanism uses an ear plate and fixing screws. Multiple U-shaped frames are fixedly installed on the top of the food truck body through fixing screws and mounting holes. The installation method is simple, quick and secure, ensuring a stable connection between the canopy body and the food truck body.

[0027] The main body of the canopy carriage is equipped with longitudinal support rods, U-shaped support rods, and strip reinforcing rods. These reinforcing structures work together to greatly improve the strength of the main body of the canopy carriage, enabling it to withstand greater external forces and pressures, and extending the service life of the device.

[0028] The protective door panel is secured by latches and hooks, ensuring its stability. The handle facilitates opening the protective door panel, further enhancing the practicality and safety of the device. Attached Figure Description

[0035] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0036] Example 1

[0037] Food trucks suffer from poor shock resistance: During operation, uneven road surfaces and other factors can cause the canopy compartments to sway. Existing canopy compartments lack effective cushioning and shock absorption structures, causing the impact of swaying to be directly transmitted to the food truck and the food. This not only generates significant noise but can also damage the food and the canopy compartment, affecting the quality of food transportation. Traditional canopy compartment installation methods are complex, requiring considerable time and manpower, and the stability after installation is poor, easily leading to loosening and other problems, increasing maintenance costs and safety hazards. Some canopy compartments have unreasonable structural designs and low strength, making them prone to deformation or damage under external impact, failing to effectively protect the food and shortening the service life of the canopy compartment.

[0038] To solve the above problems, refer to Figure 1-5 This application proposes an installation component, comprising:

[0039] The U-shaped frame 2 is made of 6061-T6 aluminum alloy (tensile strength ≥290MPa) and anodized (film thickness 15μm). The bottom of the U-shaped frame 2 is open. Both sides of the U-shaped frame 2 are slidably connected to a horizontal plate 19 of No. 45 steel (chrome plated). One end of the horizontal plate 19 is fixedly connected to a limit block 18, and the other end of the horizontal plate 19 is fixedly connected to a triangular plate 16. The two triangular plates 16 are close to each other and their ends abut against each other. The top of the U-shaped frame 2 is provided with a pushing component, which is used to push the two triangular plates 16 away from each other. The pushing component includes a sliding rod 13 of 304 stainless steel that slides through the top of the U-shaped frame 2. The top of the sliding rod 13 is fixedly connected to a side fixing block 12. The bottom of the sliding rod 13 extends into the interior of the U-shaped frame 2 and is fixedly connected to a pressure plate 15. The bottom sides of the pressure plate 15 are arc-shaped. The pressure plate 15 is located between the two triangular plates 16 and is used to push the two triangular plates 16 away from each other.

[0040] A buffer assembly for cushioning is provided on one side of the triangular plate 16. The buffer assembly includes a spring 20 (made of 65Mn spring steel, with a preload of 30N) fixedly connected to one side of the triangular plate 16. The other end of the spring 20 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of one side of the U-shaped frame 2. A rubber block 21 is fixedly connected to one side of the triangular plate 16. One side of the rubber block 21 abuts against the inner wall of one side of the U-shaped frame 2. When the main body 5 of the canopy carriage sways up and down, the strip rubber pad 9 is compressed. To reduce noise and provide cushioning, the main body 5 of the canopy carriage moves the side fixing block 12 downward, the side fixing block 12 moves the sliding rod 13 downward, and the sliding rod 13 moves the pressure plate 15 to push the two triangular plates 16 away from each other. The triangular plates 16 compress the spring 20 and the rubber block 21. The rubber block 21 is made of EPDM rubber (Shore hardness 55±5). The rubber block 21 rubs against the inner wall of the U-shaped frame 2, which provides cushioning again. When the shaking stops, the main body 5 of the canopy carriage and the triangular plates 16 slowly return to their original positions.

[0041] Both sides of the U-shaped frame 2 are provided with mounting mechanisms for installing the U-shaped frame 2. The mounting mechanism includes two ear plates 17 integrally formed on both sides of the U-shaped frame 2. Two symmetrically arranged mounting holes 22 are opened inside the ear plates 17. Fixing screws 14 pass through the internal threads of the mounting holes 22. The canopy carriage body 5 is hoisted to the top of the food carriage body 1. At this time, the bottom of multiple U-shaped frames 2 abuts against the top of the food carriage body 1. Multiple U-shaped frames 2 are fixedly installed on the top of the food carriage body 1 by fixing screws 14 and mounting holes 22. At this time, the canopy carriage body 5 abuts against the top of the food carriage body 1 through the strip rubber pad 9 at the bottom.

[0042] A canopy-covered truck body includes an installation assembly as described above, and further includes a food truck body 1 and a canopy-covered truck body 5. The installation assembly is used to fix the food truck body 1 and the canopy-covered truck body 5. The food truck body 1 is fixedly connected to a U-shaped frame 2. The canopy-covered truck body 5 is placed on top of the food truck body 1. One side of the canopy-covered truck body 5 is fixedly connected to one side of a plurality of side fixing blocks 12. Two symmetrically arranged longitudinal support rods 11 are fixedly connected between the inner walls of the two sides of the bottom of the canopy-covered truck body 5. A plurality of U-shaped support rods 10 are fixedly welded to the inner wall of the canopy-covered truck body 5. The U-shaped support rods 10 are arranged in parallel inside the main body 5 of the canopy carriage. Multiple strip reinforcing rods 8 are welded between the multiple U-shaped support rods 10 to enhance strength. Strip rubber pads 9 are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the main body 5 of the canopy carriage. When the main body 1 of the food cart moves, the buckle 7 and the hook 6 are engaged to ensure the stability of the protective door panel 4. The handle 3 helps to open the protective door panel 4. The longitudinal support rods 11 help to enhance the strength of the main body 5 of the canopy carriage. The U-shaped support rods 10 and the strip reinforcing rods 8 can further enhance the strength of the main body 5 of the canopy carriage and extend the service life of the device.

[0043] This application can be used in the field of food trucks, or in other fields applicable to this application.
