Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of meat processing, specifically to a transport rack for transferring dried meat. Background Technology

[0002] Existing meat jerky transport racks generally suffer from insufficient pallet positioning stability. Traditional racks often employ simple placement or fixed buckle structures, making pallets prone to sliding and shifting during transport. This makes precise positioning difficult during loading and unloading, affecting transport efficiency and meat jerky quality. Especially in high-frequency transfer scenarios, rigid buckles are inconvenient to use and prone to structural stress concentration due to lack of cushioning, posing a risk of buckle disengagement. On the other hand, completely unrestrained placement methods are more likely to cause pallet movement. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the above problems, this utility model provides a transport rack for transferring meat jerky, which solves the problems of sliding displacement, inaccurate loading and unloading positioning and collision risk in pallet transportation, and achieves the effects of elastic self-locking positioning, displacement sensing and movement start and stop linkage control.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides a transport rack for transferring dried meat, including a transport rack and a placement tray. The transport rack includes a first support rod, a second support rod, a control unit, a base frame, and a gate-shaped bracket. Two gate-shaped brackets are arranged opposite each other and connected to the base frame. Multiple first support rods are fixedly fixed inside the gate-shaped brackets from bottom to top at intervals. The second support rods are fixedly connected to the oppositely arranged gate-shaped brackets. A sliding groove is provided on the inner edge of the first support rod, and the sliding groove horizontally penetrates one end of the first support rod. A first protrusion is provided at the end of the sliding groove, and a first sensor is provided on the top of the first protrusion. A handrail is fixedly provided on the outer side of the gate-shaped bracket, and a button is provided on the handrail. A caster wheel is provided at the bottom of the base frame. The control unit, the button, and the caster wheel are electrically connected. The placement tray is placed on the first support rod. An absorbent layer is provided on the surface of the placement tray. Second protrusions are provided on both sides of the lower edge of the placement tray. The second protrusions are connected to the placement tray through elastic elements. The second protrusions are adapted to the sliding grooves and can be engaged with the first protrusions to stop the placement tray relative to the second support rod.

[0005] The above technical solutions ensure accurate pallet positioning while enabling controllable start / stop and anti-slip transport during loading and unloading, significantly improving the efficiency of meat jerky transfer and product protection. Through the cooperation of the sliding groove and the elastic second protrusion, the pallet achieves directional sliding and automatic locking on the shelf. A first sensor detects the locking status in real time, and combined with the linkage between the handrail button and the control unit, the casters automatically stop after the pallet is in place, avoiding human error. The cushioning effect of the elastic element reduces the risk of rigid collisions between the pallet and the shelf, while the second support rod strengthens the stability of the frame structure, reducing the impact of transport vibrations on the pallet. The synergistic design of the absorbent layer and drainage channel quickly absorbs and removes meat jerky exudate, preventing grease accumulation and contamination.

[0006] In some embodiments, the control unit is located at the bottom of the base frame.

[0007] In some embodiments, the first sensor is a gravity sensor, and a signal light is also provided on the outer side of the first protrusion near the first support rod. The control unit is electrically connected to the signal light and the first sensor in sequence.

[0008] In some embodiments, a fixing baffle is provided on the edge of the second support rod, and the fixing baffle is located on the side away from the second protrusion.

[0009] In some embodiments, the absorbent layer has a honeycomb mesh structure, and a guide channel is provided below the absorbent layer, with the guide channel distributed along the edge of the absorbent layer.

[0010] In some embodiments, casters are located on the edge of the base frame, and there are multiple casters.

[0011] In some embodiments, the elastic element is a telescopic rod.

[0012] In some embodiments, the lower edge of the second protrusion is chamfered.

[0013] Unlike existing technologies, the above technical solution provides a transport rack for transferring dried meat, comprising a transport rack and a placement tray. The placement tray achieves directional sliding and automatic locking through a sliding groove and an elastic second protrusion engagement structure. A first sensor detects the engagement status in real time and links with the control unit to control the start and stop of the casters, preventing tray displacement during transport. The cushioning effect of the elastic element, combined with the structural reinforcement of the second support rod, effectively reduces the risk of vibration, impact, and collision wear. The combination of an absorbent layer, a guide channel, and a drainage channel quickly absorbs and removes grease and liquids, preventing secondary contamination. The control unit, located at the bottom of the frame, shortens the signal path and protects the circuit. A gravity sensor and indicator lights provide accurate positioning feedback, and a fixed baffle limits the tray's sliding deviation range. The honeycomb mesh absorbent layer increases liquid absorption efficiency, the multi-edge casters distribute load pressure, the telescopic rod-type elastic element improves fatigue resistance, and the chamfered second protrusion reduces sliding friction resistance. All components, while ensuring the positioning accuracy of the placement tray, achieve multiple optimizations in loading and unloading start / stop control, flow guidance and contamination prevention, and structural damage resistance, significantly improving the efficiency of dried meat transfer and product protection.

[0046] Please see Figures 1 to 6 This embodiment provides a transport rack 1 for transferring meat jerky, including the transport rack 1 and a placement tray 2. The transport rack 1 includes a first support rod 11, a second support rod 12, a control unit, a base frame 13, and a gate-shaped bracket 14. Two gate-shaped brackets 14 are arranged opposite to each other and are connected to the base frame 13. Multiple first support rods 11 are fixedly fixed inside the gate-shaped brackets 14 from bottom to top at intervals. The second support rods 12 are fixedly connected to the oppositely arranged gate-shaped brackets 14. The inner edge of the first support rod 11 is provided with a sliding groove 111, which horizontally passes through one end of the first support rod 11. A first protrusion 112 is provided at the end of the sliding groove 111. A first sensor is provided on the top of the first protrusion 112. A handrail is fixedly provided on the outside of the gate-shaped bracket 14, and a button is provided on the handrail. A caster wheel 131 is provided on the bottom of the base frame 13. The control unit, the button and the caster wheel 131 are electrically connected. The placement tray 2 is placed on the first support rod 11. The surface of the placement tray 2 is provided with a water-absorbing layer 21. A second protrusion 22 is provided on both sides of the lower edge of the placement tray 2. The second protrusion 22 is connected to the placement tray 2 through an elastic member 23. The second protrusion 22 is adapted to the sliding groove 111. The second protrusion 22 can be engaged with the first protrusion 112 so that the placement tray 2 stops relative to the second support rod 12.

[0047] In this embodiment, the tray 2 has drainage grooves around its perimeter to drain the grease produced during the drying of the dried meat. The tray 2 also includes a water-absorbing cavity that houses the water-absorbing layer 21. The drainage grooves are connected to the water-absorbing cavity and are used to drain oil and water.

[0048] The first support rod 11 is a horizontally arranged rod-shaped structure, fixed at intervals from bottom to top to the inside of the gantry bracket 14. Its surface forms a support plane for supporting the tray 2. The sliding groove 111 provided on the inner edge is a horizontal through groove. The first protrusion 112 at the end is a limiting block perpendicular to the extension direction of the sliding groove 111. The first sensor provided on its top is used to detect the engagement state of the second protrusion 22.

[0049] The portal frame 14 consists of two uprights and a top beam forming a portal frame structure, which is connected to the base frame 13 to form a stable frame. The second support rod 12 is a rigid connecting rod that connects the two portal frames 14 laterally, used to enhance the overall structural stability. In use, the placement tray 2 is placed on the first support rod 11. The second protrusion 22 of the placement tray 2 is embedded in the sliding groove 111 and slides horizontally along the sliding groove 111. The elastic element 23 is preferably a spring or an elastic pad, so that the second protrusion 22 can retract and avoid pressure when it is pressed, and reset and engage when it reaches the position of the first protrusion 112.

[0050] Preferably, the absorbent layer 21 is a porous fiber material layer that covers the surface of the tray 2 to absorb liquid seeping from the surface of the meat jerky. The drainage channel is a guide groove surrounding the edge of the tray and communicates with the absorbent cavity at the bottom of the tray to guide the liquid out. The control unit is an integrated circuit module that controls the driving state of the caster wheel 131 by receiving signals from the first sensor and button commands.

[0051] This embodiment utilizes the cooperation of the sliding groove 111 and the elastic second protrusion 22 to achieve directional sliding and automatic locking of the pallet on the shelf. A first sensor detects the locking status in real time, and combined with the linkage between the handrail button and the control unit, the caster wheel 131 automatically stops after the pallet is in position, avoiding human error. The cushioning effect of the elastic element 23 reduces the risk of rigid collisions between the pallet and the shelf, while the second support rod 12 strengthens the stability of the frame structure and reduces the impact of transportation vibrations on the pallet. The synergistic design of the absorbent layer 21 and the drainage channel can quickly absorb and drain the exudate from the meat jerky, preventing grease accumulation and contamination. This embodiment ensures pallet positioning accuracy while achieving controllable start / stop and anti-slip during loading and unloading, significantly improving the efficiency of meat jerky transfer and product protection performance.

[0052] In some embodiments, the control unit is located at the bottom of the base frame 13.

[0053] In this embodiment, by placing the control unit at the bottom of the base frame 13, the center of gravity of the equipment is effectively lowered and the upper operating space is reduced. The direct physical proximity of the control unit and the casters 131 of the base frame 13 shortens the electrical signal transmission path and improves the response speed of movement start and stop commands. Furthermore, placing the control unit at the bottom of the base frame 13 places it in a relatively enclosed area, avoiding equipment damage caused by external collisions or liquid splashes during transportation, while also facilitating the formation of a heat dissipation channel through the structure of the base frame 13. In addition, the electrical connection lines between the control unit and the armrest button, the first sensor, and the casters 131 can be routed along the inner cavity of the portal frame 14 column or inside the base frame 13, maintaining a clean appearance and reducing the risk of snagging caused by exposed wiring. Maintenance operations can be completed simply by disassembling and reassembling from the bottom of the base frame 13.

[0054] In some embodiments, the first sensor is a gravity sensor, and a signal light is also provided on the outer side of the first protrusion 112 near the first support rod 11. The control unit is electrically connected to the signal light and the first sensor in sequence.

[0055] In this embodiment, by setting the first sensor as a gravity sensor, the engaging contact force between the second protrusion 22 and the first protrusion 112 can be accurately detected. When the pallet slides into position, the gravity sensor transmits a signal to the control unit and triggers the indicator light to illuminate, providing visual feedback. The electrical connection between the control unit, the indicator light, and the gravity sensor enables real-time indication of the engaging state. Operators can determine the pallet's positioning status by observing the indicator light, avoiding human error, improving the accuracy of loading and unloading positioning and the consistency of operation, while reducing the risk of pallet collisions caused by repeated adjustments.

[0056] In some embodiments, a fixing baffle 121 is provided on the edge of the second support rod 12, and the fixing baffle 121 is provided on the side away from the second protrusion 22.

[0057] In this embodiment, a fixed baffle 121 is provided on the side of the second support rod 12 away from the second protrusion 22 to form an end limiting barrier of the sliding path of the placement tray 2, which prevents the placement tray 2 from detaching from the second support rod 12 due to inertia, while limiting the lateral displacement range of the tray and reducing the risk of collision and wear with the support rod during the sliding process.

[0058] In some embodiments, the absorbent layer 21 has a honeycomb mesh structure, and a guide channel is provided below the absorbent layer 21, with the guide channel distributed along the edge of the absorbent layer 21.

[0059] In this embodiment, the honeycomb mesh structure increases the surface contact area of ​​the absorbent layer 21 to improve the liquid absorption efficiency. The guide groove is distributed along the edge of the absorbent layer 21 to quickly guide the liquid to the drain groove, avoiding the liquid from stagnating at the bottom of the tray and reducing the risk of secondary contamination caused by the meat jerky coming into contact with the accumulated liquid.

[0060] In some embodiments, casters 131 are disposed on the edge of the base frame, and the number of casters 131 is multiple.

[0061] In this embodiment, by setting multiple casters 131 on the edge of the base frame, the overall load-bearing pressure of the transport shelf 1 is distributed, the movement stability is enhanced, and the synchronous steering of multiple wheels can reduce turning resistance and reduce the deformation of the base frame structure, thus avoiding wheel wear caused by single-point force.

[0062] In some embodiments, the elastic element 23 is a telescopic rod.

[0063] In this embodiment, by setting the elastic element 23 as a telescopic rod instead of a traditional spring structure, linear elastic buffering is provided, stress fluctuations when the second protrusion 22 engages are reduced, the fatigue resistance of the structure is enhanced, and the service life of the elastic element 23 is extended.

[0064] In some embodiments, the lower edge of the second protrusion 22 is chamfered.

[0065] In this embodiment, by setting the lower edge of the second protrusion 22 as a chamfered structure, the second protrusion 22 makes progressive contact with the edge of the groove when it enters the sliding groove 111, reducing the frictional resistance in the initial sliding stage and improving the guiding performance of the tray. The chamfer design can disperse the contact stress during the process of the second protrusion 22 engaging with the first protrusion 112, avoiding wear on the protrusion surface caused by sharp corner collisions, while enhancing the rebound and reset capability of the elastic element 23, ensuring the stability of multiple engagement actions.

[0066] Through the above technical solutions, this utility model differs from the prior art and has the following beneficial effects:

[0067] This invention achieves directional sliding and automatic locking of the placement tray 2 through the engaging structure of the sliding groove 111 and the elastic second protrusion 22. The first sensor detects the engaging state in real time and links with the control unit to control the start and stop of the casters 131, preventing the placement tray 2 from shifting during transportation. The cushioning effect of the elastic element 23, combined with the structural reinforcement of the second support rod 12, effectively reduces the risk of vibration, impact, and collision wear. The combination of the absorbent layer 21 with the guide channel and drainage channel can quickly absorb and drain grease and liquid, preventing secondary contamination. The control unit is located at the bottom of the base frame 13 to shorten the signal path and protect the circuit. The gravity sensor and the signal light are linked to provide accurate positioning feedback, and the fixed baffle 121 limits the sliding deviation range of the tray. The honeycomb mesh absorbent layer 21 increases the liquid absorption efficiency, the multi-edge casters 131 disperse the load pressure, the telescopic elastic element 23 improves fatigue resistance, and the chamfered second protrusion 22 reduces sliding friction resistance. While ensuring the positioning accuracy of the placement tray 2, each component forms multiple optimizations in loading and unloading start and stop control, flow guidance and contamination prevention, and structural damage resistance, significantly improving the meat jerky transfer efficiency and product protection performance.

[0068] Finally, it should be noted that although the above embodiments have been described in the text and drawings of this utility model, this should not limit the scope of patent protection of this utility model.
