[0038] This embodiment provides a roller storage device for storing rollers 10, as shown in Figures 1-5. The roller storage device includes a support assembly 100 and a limiting assembly 200. The support assembly 100 includes a base 110 and a support 120. The support 120 is disposed on the base 110. At least one crossbeam 122 is provided on each side of the support 120. Multiple limiting assemblies 200 are spaced apart on each crossbeam 122. Each limiting assembly 200 includes a flexible connector 220 and two positioning blocks 210. The two positioning blocks 210 are adjustablely installed on the crossbeam 122 to form a limiting space. The two ends of the flexible connector 220 are detachably connected to the two positioning blocks 210 respectively. When storing the roller 10, one end of the roller 10 is placed against the base 110, and the other end passes through the corresponding limiting space. The limiting component 200 at the crossbeam 122 constrains the circumferential direction of the roller 10, which allows the roller 10 to be stored vertically, improving space utilization. The limiting component 200 can also prevent the roller 10 from rolling and slipping due to external force or its own inertia, improving safety during storage and retrieval and reducing the risk of injury to operators. In addition, the multiple adjustable positioning blocks 210 on the crossbeam 122 can be adjusted in position according to the diameter of the roller 10, thereby adapting to the storage requirements of different models of roller 10 and improving the flexibility and practicality of the roller storage device.

[0039] Optionally, the positioning block 210 is made of nylon, which can prevent scratches on the roller 10 and improve the appearance quality of the roller 10.

[0040] Optionally, as shown in Figure 1, the roller 10 is provided with shaft head 11 at both ends, and the base 110 is provided with shaft head fixing beam 111. The shaft head fixing beam 111 is provided with groove 1111. The groove 1111 is used to position the shaft head 11 at the end of the roller 10 that abuts against the base 110, which can prevent the roller 10 from shifting due to gravity or external force when stored vertically, thereby improving the stability of the roller 10.

[0041] Optionally, a silicone pad or a rubber pad is provided at the bottom of the groove 1111. During the process of placing the end of the roller 10 into the groove 1111, it may be impacted by gravity. The silicone pad or rubber pad has good elasticity and cushioning performance, which can effectively absorb the impact force, prevent the shaft head 11 at the end of the roller 10 from having a hard collision with the bottom of the groove, prevent the shaft head 11 from being worn or damaged, and improve the safety of the roller 10.

[0042] Optionally, as shown in Figures 1-2, the support 120 includes a connecting beam 123 and two frames 121. The two frames 121 are arranged opposite to each other on the base 110 and gradually approach each other from bottom to top. Each frame 121 is provided with at least one crossbeam 122. The connecting beam 123 is located between the two frames 121, and the two ends of the connecting beam 123 are respectively connected to the two frames 121, thereby forming an approximately A-shaped support 120, which can make the support assembly 100 structure more stable and reliable.

[0043] Optionally, both the base 110 and the bracket 120 are welded together using carbon steel square tube profiles. The side view of the bracket 120 is A-shaped, and both sides of the A-shaped bracket 120 are inclined. When the operator inserts the shaft head 11 at the bottom of the roller 10 into the groove 1111 on the shaft head fixing beam 111, the roller 10 naturally tilts and abuts against the crossbeam 122 on the corresponding side under the action of gravity. At this time, the roller 10 is limited by two positioning blocks 210, and a preliminary stable state is formed before the flexible connector 220 is installed. The operator does not need additional auxiliary tools or manual support, and can first temporarily insert the roller 10 into the limiting space in an inclined state, and then complete the installation of the flexible connector 220, thereby improving assembly efficiency, convenience and safety.

[0044] Optionally, along the height direction of the support 120, each frame 121 is provided with at least two crossbeams 122, and each crossbeam 122 is selectively provided with a limiting component 200. By providing multiple crossbeams 122 on the frame 121 and allowing the limiting components 200 to be selectively installed as needed, the roller storage device can be adapted to rollers 10 of different lengths, improving the versatility and adaptability of the roller storage device. The position of the limiting component 200 can be flexibly adjusted according to the specifications of the rollers, achieving reasonable layering and compact arrangement, avoiding space waste, and improving space utilization.

[0045] Optionally, in this embodiment, two crossbeams 122 are provided on each frame 121. The two crossbeams 122 are arranged at intervals along the vertical direction on their corresponding frames 121. Depending on the length of the roller 10, the roller 10 is fixed by a limiting component 200 on the lower crossbeam 122 or by a limiting component 200 on the upper crossbeam 122. For example, when a long roller 10 is placed, the limiting component 200 is installed on the upper crossbeam 122; when a short roller 10 is placed, the limiting component 200 is installed on the lower crossbeam 122. In other embodiments, three, four, or five crossbeams 122 may be provided on each frame 121, and the number of crossbeams 122 provided on each frame 121 is not specifically limited.

[0046] Optionally, the positioning block 210 includes an arc-shaped portion 2111. The two arc-shaped portions 2111 of the two positioning blocks 210 are positioned opposite each other, and the arc-shaped portions 2111 can fit against the outer wall of the roller 10. The curved surface shape of the arc-shaped portion 2111 matches the outer wall of the roller 10, which can achieve good contact, increase the contact area, and ensure the stability of the roller 10 within the limiting space.

[0047] Optionally, as shown in Figures 3 and 4, the positioning block 210 includes a block body 211, anchor ears 213, and fasteners 212. Multiple oblong holes 1221 are spaced apart on the crossbeam 122, with each oblong hole 1221 corresponding to one of the block body 211. An arc-shaped portion 2111 is disposed on the block body 211, the anchor ears 213 are disposed at the first end of the block body 211, and the fasteners 212 are disposed at the second end of the block body 211. The fasteners 212 can pass through the oblong holes 1221 corresponding to the block body 211 to lock or unlock the position of the block body 211 on the crossbeam 122. The two ends of the flexible connector 220 are detachably connected to the two anchor ears 213 of the two opposite block bodies 211. Through the cooperation of the fasteners 212 and the oblong holes 1221, the positioning block 210 can be quickly locked and freely slid on the crossbeam 122, facilitating the adjustment of the installation position of the limiting component 200 to accommodate rollers 10 of different sizes and specifications. In this embodiment, the anchor lug 213 is threaded to the first end of the positioning block 210, which can improve the tightness of the connection between the anchor lug 213 and the positioning block 210.

[0048] Optionally, the fastener 212 includes a screw 2121 and a handle 2122. One end of the screw 2121 is threadedly connected to the block body 211, and the other end is fixedly connected to the handle 2122. By rotating the screw 2121 through the handle 2122, the positioning block 210 can be quickly locked and released on the crossbeam 122. The adjustment operation is simple, requires no additional tools, and improves work efficiency.

[0049] Optionally, as shown in Figure 5, the flexible connector 220 includes a chain 221, with hooks 222 at both ends of the chain 221. The hooks 222 can be detachably connected to their corresponding anchor ears 213, thereby quickly fixing the roller 10 in the limiting space or allowing the roller 10 to be removed from the limiting space, thus improving the convenience of operation.

[0050] Optionally, the chain 221 is composed of multiple interlocking links 2211, with hooks 222 that can be attached to any one of the interlocking links 2211. The length of the chain 221 can be changed without additional tools, improving operational convenience. Furthermore, by flexibly adjusting the length of the chain 221, the roller storage device can meet the storage requirements of rollers 10 with different diameters, enhancing its versatility. In other embodiments, the flexible connector 220 can be an elastic band, with hooks 222 at both ends, similarly meeting the storage requirements of rollers 10 with different diameters.

[0051] Optionally, the hook 222 includes a C-shaped buckle body and a closure. The closure is rotatably connected to the opening of the C-shaped buckle body by a torsion spring. The closure can open the opening of the C-shaped buckle body, making it easy to install the C-shaped buckle body on the anchor lug 213, and seal the opening of the C-shaped buckle body after installation. This can effectively prevent the C-shaped buckle body from detaching from the anchor lug 213 and improve the reliability of the connection.

[0052] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can make various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions without departing from the protection scope of this utility model. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively describe all embodiments here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
