Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of furniture technology, and in particular to a storage frame with adjustable arms. Background Technology

[0002] As the name suggests, a glass cabinet is a cabinet made of glass. Glass cabinets are widely used in shopping malls or exhibition venues to display products. A glass cabinet is mainly used as a counter to store items.

[0003] Currently, the existing monolithic arms and storage frames are connected by bolts. Since there are more than one storage frame used in the finished cabinet, the bolt connection method results in low assembly efficiency and is also quite laborious. Utility Model Content

[0004] This invention aims to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art by providing a storage frame with a monotonous arm to solve the aforementioned problems.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is as follows: This storage frame with a monotonic arm includes a storage frame body and a monotonic arm assembled with the storage frame body. The two short rod segments of the storage frame body each have a first assembly base surface and a second assembly base surface. The first assembly base surface has two first assembly nodes symmetrically distributed on both sides. The second assembly base surface has a second assembly node located inside the first assembly node. The monotonic arm has a first assembly mating surface and a second assembly mating surface. The first assembly mating surface has a first assembly component that is inserted and mated with the first assembly node. The second assembly mating surface has a second assembly component that is inserted and mated with the second assembly node. And it allows the storage frame body to move in the up, down, left, right, front and back directions after assembly.

[0006] Further improvements were made to the monotonic arm, which includes a rod connecting section and a frame connecting section. The rod connecting section is inserted into a monotonic arm connecting block set on the upright. The frame connecting section is hollowed out and has a partition plate that forms two assembly stations. A positioning plate is provided between the partition plate and the frame connecting section. The inner end face of the positioning plate is the first assembly mating surface, and the upper end face of the frame connecting section is the second assembly mating surface. When the storage frame body is combined with the corresponding assembly components through the two assembly nodes, the first assembly base surface is in contact with the first assembly mating surface, and the second assembly base surface is in contact with the second assembly mating surface.

[0007] Further improvements include the addition of reinforcing ribs that connect to the partition plate within the hollowed-out portion of the frame connection section.

[0008] Further improvements include the option that the first assembly component can be integrally formed with the positioning plate, or it can be detached and connected to the positioning plate.

[0009] Further improvements include a positioning plate that achieves detachable connection with the first assembly component by forming insertion holes on the first assembly mating surface. The first assembly component that achieves detachable connection includes an outer sleeve, a pressing rod, a connector, a spring, and two locking steel balls. The outer sleeve is inserted into the insertion hole, and the portion of the outer sleeve inside the insertion hole has two through holes symmetrically distributed on both sides and communicating with its inner cavity. The locking steel balls are placed inside the outer sleeve, and through the through holes, a portion of the locking steel balls is exposed after being compressed. The pressing rod moves within the outer sleeve and compresses the locking steel balls. The connector is formed at the lower end of the pressing rod and is inserted into the first assembly node. The spring is fitted onto the upper part of the pressing rod and placed within the outer sleeve to maintain the compression state of the pressing rod on the locking steel balls. The insertion hole on the positioning plate has locking holes symmetrically distributed on both sides.

[0010] Further improvements include a connecting section, a retracting section, and a pressing section. The connecting section is used to mount the spring. The retracting section is used to release the pressing rod from pressing the locking ball, and its outer diameter is smaller than that of the connecting section. The pressing section is used to press the locking ball, and it has a conical shape. Its minimum outer diameter matches the outer diameter of the retracting section, and its maximum outer diameter matches the outer diameter of the connecting section. The connector is connected to the pressing section.

[0011] Further improvements include a second assembly component comprising inserts and connecting ribs. Both inserts and connecting ribs are located on the mating surface of the second assembly, with one end of the connecting rib located on the insert and the other end located on the partition plate.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] 1. The storage frame body and the monotonic arm of this utility model are assembled by inserting at two assembly points. This reduces the complexity of assembly and improves the ease of assembly. After the inserting is completed at the two mating points, the assembly position of the storage frame body on the monotonic arm can be quickly determined by the surface-to-surface contact. This also increases the assembly stability of the storage frame body and the monotonic arm.

[0014] 2. When the first assembly component of this utility model is detachable, the first assembly component can be disassembled first (removing the restriction in the up and down direction), and then the second assembly component can be separated from the second assembly node. This method is more labor-saving and there is no risk of damaging the monotonic arm. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0022] Referring to the attached diagram: This storage frame with a monotonic arm includes a storage frame body 1 and a monotonic arm 2 assembled with the storage frame body 1. The two short rod segments of the storage frame body 1 each have a first assembly base surface 11 and a second assembly base surface 12. The first assembly base surface 11 has two first assembly nodes 3 symmetrically distributed on both sides. The second assembly base surface 12 has a second assembly node 4 located inside the first assembly node 3. The monotonic arm 2 has a first assembly mating surface 21 and a second assembly mating surface 22. The first assembly mating surface 21 has a first assembly component 5 that is inserted and mated with the first assembly node 3. The second assembly mating surface 22 has a second assembly component 6 that is inserted and mated with the second assembly node 4. And after assembly, the storage frame body 1 is restricted to move in the up, down, left, right, front and back directions. The principle of this utility model is that the storage frame body 1 and the monotonic arm 2 are assembled and matched through the first assembly node 3 and the first assembly component 5, the second assembly node 4 and the second assembly component 6. Both assembly points are achieved by insert fitting, which can reduce the cumbersomeness of assembly and improve the convenience of assembly. After the insertion fitting is completed at the two fitting points, the first assembly base surface 11 and the first assembly mating surface 21, the second assembly base surface 12 and the second assembly mating surface 22, the mating of the surfaces allows the assembly position of the storage frame body 1 on the monotonic arm 2 to be quickly determined before insertion. After insertion, the two assembly points can also increase the assembly stability of the storage frame body 1 and the monotonic arm 2.

[0023] The monotonic arm 2 includes a rod connecting section 23 and a frame connecting section 24. The rod connecting section 23 is inserted into a monotonic arm connecting block set on the upright. The frame connecting section 24 is hollowed out and has a partition plate 241 that forms two assembly stations. A positioning plate 242 is provided between the partition plate 241 and the frame connecting section 24. The inner end face of the positioning plate 242 is the first assembly mating surface 21, and the upper end face of the frame connecting section 24 is the second assembly mating surface 22. When the housing frame body 1 is combined with the corresponding assembly components through the two assembly nodes, the first assembly base surface 11 is in contact with the first assembly mating surface 21, and the second assembly base surface 12 is in contact with the second assembly mating surface 22. This arrangement allows the monotonic arm 2 to have both a portion connected to the storage frame body 1 and a portion connected to the monotonic arm connecting block set on the upright. The partition plate 241 is used to separate the positions of some monotonic arms 2 that need to be assembled and connected to two storage frame bodies 1 at the same time. The partition plate 241 also enhances the structural strength of the positioning plate 242. This is because the first assembly component 5 is set on the positioning plate 923 (i.e., the first assembly component 5 is set on the first assembly mating surface 21), and the second assembly component 6 is set at the front end of the frame connecting section 92, forming a spacing between it and the first assembly component 5 that facilitates simultaneous insertion.

[0024] The hollow portion of the frame connecting section 24 is provided with a reinforcing rib structure that connects to the partition plate 241. Since the partition plate 241 is also a strength support component of the positioning plate 242, the reinforcing rib structure in the hollow portion of the frame connecting section 24 also provides strength support to the partition plate 241. This ensures the structural stability of the monotonic arm 2 when it provides unilateral support to the storage frame body 1, and guarantees the stable assembly of the monotonic arm 2 and the storage frame body 1.

[0025] The first assembly component 5 can be integrally formed with the positioning plate 242, or it can be detachably connected to the positioning plate 242. This structural configuration allows for two assembly methods for the storage frame body 1 and the monochromatic arm 2:

[0026] Method 1: When assembling the first assembly component 5 and the positioning plate 242 in a single integrated manner, the storage frame body 1 first inserts itself into the first assembly component 5 using its first assembly node 3. The storage frame body 1 is inserted at an angle because the second assembly component 6 and the first assembly component 5 are in the same straight line direction, thus avoiding interference from the second assembly component 6 in the straight line direction. After part of the first assembly component 5 enters the first assembly node 3, the storage frame body 1 is gradually straightened by movement, and the angle of inclination gradually decreases as the depth of the first assembly component 5 entering the first assembly node 3 increases. The second assembly component 6 gradually enters the second assembly node 4. After the first assembly component 5 is completely entered into the first assembly node 3, the second assembly component 6 is also completely entered into the second assembly node 4. During disassembly, the storage frame body 1 is tilted, so that some of the second assembly components 6 are first separated from the second assembly node 4. Then, by moving, the tilt angle is gradually increased, and at the same time, the first assembly component 5 is also gradually separated from the first assembly node 3. Although this method can disassemble the storage frame body 1 and the monotonic arm 2, the disassembly process is relatively difficult and there is a risk of damaging the monotonic arm 2.

[0027] Method 2: When assembling using the method of disassembling and connecting the first assembly component 5 with the positioning plate 242, the same assembly method as Method 1 can be used. Alternatively, the first assembly component 5 can be omitted from the positioning plate 242. First, the second assembly component 6 can be inserted into the second assembly node 4, and then the first assembly component 5 can be installed on the positioning plate 242 and simultaneously inserted into the first assembly node 4. Similarly, during disassembly, the first assembly component 5 can be removed first to release it from the first assembly node 4, and then the second assembly component 6 can be removed from the second assembly node 4. This method is more labor-saving than Method 1 and does not pose a risk of damaging the monotonic arm 2.

[0028] The positioning plate 242 is detachably connected to the first assembly component 5 by forming an insertion hole 243 on the first assembly mating surface 21. The first assembly component 5, which is detachably connected, includes an outer rod sleeve 51, a pressing rod 52, a connector 53, a spring 54, and two locking steel balls 55. The outer rod sleeve 51 is inserted into the insertion hole 243, and the portion of the outer rod sleeve 51 inside the insertion hole 243 has two through holes 511 symmetrically distributed on both sides and communicating with its inner cavity. The locking steel balls 55 are placed inside the outer rod sleeve 51 and... The through-hole 511 exposes part of the locking steel ball 55 after being compressed. The pressing rod 52 moves within the outer sleeve 51 and compresses the locking steel ball 55. The connector 53 is formed at the lower end of the pressing rod 52 and is inserted into the first assembly node 3. The spring 54 is fitted into the upper part of the pressing rod 52 and placed within the outer sleeve 51 to maintain the compression of the locking steel ball 55 by the pressing rod 52. The insertion hole 243 has symmetrically distributed locking holes 2431 on both sides of the positioning plate 242. This configuration allows for the detachable connection between the positioning plate 242 and the first assembly plug-in 5. The first assembly component 5 utilizes an outer sleeve 51, a pressing rod 52, a connector 53, a spring 54, and two locking steel balls 55 to form a locking structure. Specifically, the movement of the pressing rod 52 within the outer sleeve 51 compresses or releases the locking steel balls 55. The compression is intended to expose part of the locking steel balls 55 through the through hole 511 outside the outer sleeve 51. The locking hole 2431 within the insertion hole 243 allows the exposed steel balls 55 to be exposed. The portion of the outer sleeve 51 that is exposed is fitted with a locking steel ball 55, thereby preventing the outer sleeve 51 from moving within the insertion hole 243. The connector 53 is the part where the first assembly component 5 and the first assembly node 3 are joined. The spring 54 is fitted onto the pressing rod 52. One end of the non-formed connector 53 of the pressing rod 52 is provided with an abutment. The inner cavity of the outer sleeve 51 has a stepped configuration, so that the lower end of the spring 54 abuts against the lower end surface of the larger section of the stepped portion, and the upper end abuts against the abutment. In this embodiment, the first assembly node 3 is a hole-like structure, and the connector 53 is a columnar structure.

[0029] The push rod 52 includes a connecting section 521, a retracting section 522, and a pressing section 523. The connecting section 521 is used to mount the spring 54. The retracting section 522 is used to release the pressure of the push rod 52 on the locking ball 55, and its outer diameter is smaller than that of the connecting section 521. The pressing section 523 is used to press the locking ball 55, and it has a conical shape. Its minimum outer diameter matches the outer diameter of the retracting section 522, and its maximum outer diameter matches the outer diameter of the connecting section 521. The connector 53 is connected to the pressing section 523. This arrangement allows the push rod 52 to both mount the spring 54 and lock the ball. The locking steel ball 55 is squeezed or released, that is, the retraction section 522 uses the size difference between itself and the connecting section 521 to form a retraction space. When the locking steel ball 55 is in the retraction section 522, the locking steel ball 55 can return to the retraction space and release the lock with the locking hole 2431. This allows the first assembly component 5 to be disengaged from the insertion hole 243. The squeezing section 523 has a conical configuration, so it is continuous with the retraction section 522 and also has a guiding function. The locking steel ball 55 can also be gradually pushed into the through hole 511 and the locking hole 2431 by changing its size.

[0030] The second assembly component 6 includes a insert 61 and a connecting rib 62. Both the insert 61 and the connecting rib 62 are disposed on the second assembly mating surface 22. One end of the connecting rib 62 is disposed on the insert 61, and the other end is disposed on the partition plate 241. Both the insert 61 and the connecting rib 62 are inserted into the second assembly node 4. The connecting rib 62, through its connection with the partition plate 241, increases the structural strength of the insert 61, thereby making the insert 61 less prone to damage when the first assembly component 5 is integrally formed. In this embodiment, the configuration of the second assembly node 4 is consistent with the configuration of the second assembly component 6.

[0031] Although the present invention has been illustrated and described with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes in form and detail are possible within the scope of the claims.
