Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rodent barrier technology, and in particular to a rodent barrier device for food storage. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of rodent-blocking technology, traditional rodent-blocking panels have relatively simple structural forms. Most common rodent-blocking panels are one-piece structures with fixed dimensions and shapes. This makes it difficult to adapt them to the diverse shapes and sizes of doors in warehouses, factories, and other locations. For example, some doors may have irregular corners or special curvatures, and one-piece rodent-blocking panels cannot be flexibly adjusted to accommodate these special shapes. Consequently, they may not fit perfectly against the door edges during installation, resulting in poor rodent-blocking effectiveness. Furthermore, when not in use, one-piece rodent-blocking panels are bulky and take up a lot of space, making them extremely inconvenient to transport and store.

[0003] Therefore, there is a need for a rodent-proof device for food storage that is adaptable to different types of gates and convenient for transportation and storage. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model provides a rodent-proof device for food storage to solve the problems in the prior art.

[0005] The present invention adopts the following technical solution: a rodent-proof device for food storage, comprising: a plurality of plates, wherein two adjacent plates are hinged to each other to have an unfolded state and a stacked state; in the stacked state, two plates are stacked and the bottom ends of the two plates are located on the same plane; in the unfolded state, two plates are rotated to a non-zero angle and the bottom ends of the two plates are located on the same plane; and a support plate, having at least one support plate, wherein each support plate is detachably installed at the lower end of one of the plates in a manner parallel to the ground, so as to realize the vertical distribution of the plates relative to the ground to be installed, and the support plate is flush with the lower end surface of the corresponding plate.

[0006] Furthermore, each plate is provided with a hinge portion protruding from the end face of the plate, and the plate adjacent to the plate is provided with a groove corresponding to the hinge portion. The hinge portion is provided with a first through hole extending longitudinally, and the upper and lower ends of the groove are provided with a second through hole extending longitudinally through the plate. The hinge portion is embedded in the groove so that the first through hole and the second through hole are coaxial, and a hinge shaft is movably inserted into the first through hole and the second through hole.

[0007] Furthermore, the sides of the hinge are rounded, and the sides of the plate located above and below the groove are also rounded.

[0008] Furthermore, the plate has an internal thread on the inner wall of the second through hole at one end of the groove, and one end of the hinge shaft is threaded to the internal thread.

[0009] Furthermore, a hand-tightening knob is installed at the other end of the hinge shaft, and a clearance groove is provided on the plate; when the hinge shaft is threaded into the internal thread, the hand-tightening knob is completely submerged in the clearance groove.

[0010] Furthermore, the support plate has two opposing strip grooves, the width of which is adapted to the corresponding thickness of the plate. A connecting part is formed between the two strip grooves, and the connecting part has a threaded hole. The plate has a slot corresponding to the connecting part, and a positioning rod is threaded into the threaded hole. The positioning rod is inserted into the slot at the top of the slot, and the connecting part is completely embedded in the slot. The part of the plate located next to the slot is embedded in the strip groove.

[0011] Furthermore, when several plates are connected in sequence, the two plates located at both ends are defined as side end plates; each side end plate has at least one circular hole, and the side end plate is fixed to the object to be connected by a bolt inserted into the circular hole.

[0012] Furthermore, when several plates are connected in sequence, the two plates located at both ends are defined as side end plates, and the side end plates have at least one round hole; the side end plates also have a base plate and a support rod on their side, and the support rod consists of two insertion ends and a connecting rod connecting the two insertion ends, one of which is inserted longitudinally into the first insertion hole on the base plate, and the other insertion end is inserted laterally into the round hole, so as to press the side end plate against the object to be connected.

[0013] The above-mentioned technical solutions adopted in the embodiments of this utility model can achieve the following beneficial effects:

[0014] Firstly, the panels can be bent arbitrarily when unfolded, allowing them to be folded into suitable shapes to conceal the rodents, based on the specific shape and size of warehouse or other venue doors. They can also be flattened directly, greatly improving the adaptability of the rodent-blocking device to different spaces and environments. Secondly, when the device is stacked, several panels together occupy little space, facilitating handling and storage. The detachable support plate design allows it to be removed during transportation and storage, further reducing the overall volume and lowering the difficulty and cost of transportation and storage.

[0015] Secondly, due to the presence of the support plate, the rodent-blocking device can stand relatively stably on the ground without being directly connected to the wall, avoiding operations such as drilling holes in the wall and installing fasteners, thus preventing damage to the wall and protecting the integrity and aesthetics of the building.

[0016] Thirdly, since there are several panels that are hinged together, the number of panels can be increased or decreased according to actual needs, thereby adjusting the length and coverage of the rodent barrier. It has good scalability and can adapt to the rodent barrier needs of gates or areas of different widths. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0029] To further illustrate the technical means and effects adopted by this utility model in order to achieve the intended utility model purpose, the following detailed description of the specific implementation methods, structure, features and effects of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0030] The technical solutions provided by the various embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0031] Reference Figures 1 to 9 As shown in the figure, this utility model embodiment provides a rodent-proof device for food storage, which mainly includes a plate 1 and a support plate 2.

[0032] Several plates 1 are configured, and two adjacent plates 1 are hinged to each other to have an unfolded state and a stacked state; in the stacked state, two plates 1 are stacked and the bottom ends of the two plates 1 are located on the same plane; in the unfolded state, two plates 1 are rotated to a non-zero angle and the bottom ends of the two plates 1 are located on the same plane.

[0033] The support plate 2 has at least one support plate 2, each support plate 2 being detachably installed at the lower end of one of the plates 1 in a manner parallel to the ground, so as to achieve the vertical distribution of the plates 1 relative to the ground to be installed, and the support plate 2 is flush with the lower end surface of the corresponding plate 1.

[0034] When the rodent-blocking device is needed, the stacked panels 1 can be unfolded. Panels 1 rotate around their hinge points, changing from a parallel stacked state to a non-zero angled state, with the bottom ends of all panels 1 remaining on the same plane, forming a continuous blocking surface to shield areas such as doors, thus preventing rodents. When finished or needed for transport or storage, the panels 1 can be rotated back to their stacked state, allowing multiple panels 1 to be stacked parallel to each other. A support plate 2 is detachably installed parallel to the ground at the lower end of one of the panels 1. After installation, the support plate 2 is flush with the lower surface of the corresponding panel 1. Utilizing the contact and support between the support plate 2 and the ground, the panels 1 can be vertically distributed on the installation surface. Even if the panels 1 are not connected to walls or other fixed objects, they can stand relatively stably, thus achieving independent support and stable placement of the rodent-blocking device.

[0035] Therefore, in this embodiment, the plate 1 can be bent arbitrarily when unfolded, allowing it to be folded into a suitable shape for blocking according to the specific shape and size of the warehouse or other location's door, or it can be directly flattened, greatly improving the adaptability of the rodent-blocking device to different spaces and environments. Simultaneously, when the rodent-blocking device is stacked, several plates 1 are stacked together, occupying little space and facilitating handling and storage. The detachable design of the support plate 2 allows it to be removed during transportation and storage, further reducing the overall volume and lowering the difficulty and cost of transportation and storage.

[0036] In addition, due to the presence of the support plate 2, the rodent-blocking device can stand relatively stably on the ground without being directly connected to the wall, avoiding operations such as drilling holes in the wall and installing fasteners, thus preventing damage to the wall and protecting the integrity and aesthetics of the building.

[0037] Furthermore, since there are several plates 1 that are hinged together, the number of plates 1 can be increased or decreased according to actual needs, thereby adjusting the length and coverage of the rodent barrier. It has good scalability and can adapt to the rodent barrier needs of gates or areas of different widths.

[0038] In some practical applications, the hinge between two plates can be achieved in the following ways: (Refer to...) Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown, each plate 1 is provided with a hinge portion 11 protruding from the end face of the plate 1, and a groove 12 corresponding to the hinge portion 11 is provided on the plate 1 adjacent to the plate 1. The hinge portion 11 is provided with a first through hole 111 extending longitudinally, and the upper and lower ends of the groove 12 are provided with a second through hole 121 extending longitudinally through the plate 1. The hinge portion 11 is embedded in the groove 12 so that the first through hole 111 and the second through hole 121 are coaxial, and a hinge shaft 3 is movably inserted into the first through hole 111 and the second through hole 121.

[0039] Specifically, the sides of the hinge portion 11 are rounded, and the sides of the plate 1 located above and below the groove 12 are also rounded. The rounded corners facilitate the rotation of the two plates 1 while minimizing the gap between them, preventing small mice from entering.

[0040] In other practical applications, refer to Figures 4 to 5As shown, the plate 1 has an internal thread 122 on the inner wall of the second through hole 121 at one end of the groove 12, and one end of the hinge shaft 3 is threaded to the internal thread 122. This allows the hinge shaft 3 between the two plates 1 to be disassembled and assembled at will. In addition, a hand-tightening knob 31 can be installed on the other end of the hinge shaft 3 to facilitate the user to turn the hand-tightening knob 31. The plate 1 is provided with a relief groove 13. When the hinge shaft 3 is threaded to the internal thread 122, the hand-tightening knob 31 is completely sunk into the relief groove 13. This prevents the hand-tightening knob 31 from supporting the ground and raising the plate 1 when it is at the bottom, thus avoiding a gap between the plate 1 and the ground.

[0041] In some practical applications, the structural design is carried out for the connection method between support plate 2 and plate 1: Refer to Figures 6 to 7 As shown, the support plate 2 has two opposing strip grooves 21. The width of the two strip grooves 21 is adapted to the corresponding thickness of the plate. A connecting part 22 is formed between the two strip grooves 21, and the connecting part 22 has a threaded hole 23. The plate has a slot 14 corresponding to the connecting part 22. A positioning rod 4 is connected to the threaded hole 23 by a thread 122. The positioning rod 4 is inserted into the slot 15 at the top of the slot 14, and the connecting part 22 is completely embedded in the slot 14. The part of the plate 1 located next to the slot 14 is embedded in the strip groove 21.

[0042] When connecting the support plate 2 and the plate 1, first insert the positioning rod 4 into the threaded hole 23, align the connecting part 22 of the support plate 2 with the slot 14 on the plate 1, so that the connecting part 22 is fully embedded in the slot 14. At the same time, the part of the plate 1 located next to the slot 14 is embedded in the strip groove 21, and the positioning rod 4 is also fully inserted into the slot 15 at the top of the slot 14, thus completing the connection between the support plate 2 and the plate 1. It should be noted that the number and installation position of the support plates 2 can be defined and arranged according to the actual situation.

[0043] In some practical applications, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 9 As shown, when several plates 1 are connected in sequence, the two plates 1 located at both ends are defined as side end plates 5; the side end plates 5 have at least one circular hole 51; and the side end plates 5 are stabilized through the circular holes 51, which can be referred to in the following two ways:

[0044] Firstly, the side end plate 5 is fixed to the object to be connected by inserting a bolt into the round hole 51. This method is relatively common, but it is also easy to damage the wall surface.

[0045] Secondly, the side of the side plate 5 also has a base plate 6 and a support rod 7. The support rod 7 consists of two insertion ends 71 ​​and a connecting rod 72 connecting the two insertion ends 71. One insertion end 71 is inserted longitudinally into the first insertion hole 61 on the base plate 6, and the other insertion end 71 is inserted laterally into the round hole 51, so that the side plate 5 is pressed against the object to be connected. The support rod 7 and the base plate 6 can effectively support the side plate 5, thereby ensuring its stability; the base plate 6, the support rod 7, and the support plate 2 together ensure the stability of the entire rodent-proof device.

[0046] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Although the present utility model has been disclosed above with reference to a preferred embodiment, it is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any person skilled in the art can make some modifications or alterations to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present utility model. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the scope of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
