Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of field sampling auxiliary equipment technology, and in particular to a combined composite shelf. Background Technology
[0002] In teaching or research activities in disciplines such as biology and environmental science, it is sometimes necessary to collect biological or environmental samples in the field. The collected samples are placed in sampling bottles or test tubes, and after preliminary processing, they are capped, numbered, and recorded. Currently, there is no specific tool to hold these sampling containers. Some are placed in backpacks, while others are folding trolleys, such as the portable trolleys used for grocery shopping. These are not easy to secure various types of sampling containers, and samples are prone to leakage. In severe cases, they may even be damaged by collision. Since field sampling work is often carried out in remote or rugged areas, it is necessary to walk a distance to reach the sampling site. If there were a tool that could stably store field-collected samples and move them from rugged areas to flat roads, it would greatly facilitate the sampling work.
[0003] Current storage racks on the market generally have some shortcomings: First, traditional storage racks are bulky and difficult to place flexibly in limited spaces, thus reducing space utilization; second, some portable storage racks are complicated to unfold and fold, time-consuming and laborious, and often require special tools during assembly, which brings many inconveniences to users. Overall, most storage racks on the market have fixed structures and single functions, and cannot be flexibly adjusted according to the actual diameter, quantity and usage needs of the sampling containers, resulting in inconvenience and inefficiency. Therefore, we provide a combination composite storage solution. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0024] 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. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0025] As attached Figure 1 With appendix Figure 2 As shown: A combined composite shelf includes a set of three hinged shelves 1. The middle shelf 1 has two shelves 1 hinged to each other. A set of handles 6 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of one of the shelves 1. Each handle 6 is provided with an anti-slip sleeve. The handles 6 make it convenient for staff to lift the entire shelf 1.
[0026] As attached Figure 1 Appendix Figure 2 With appendix Figure 3 As shown: Each shelf 1 is equipped with a placement component 2 for placing sampling containers of different diameters. Each placement component 2 includes a set of upright plates 201 fixedly connected to the shelf 1. Each upright plate 201 is slidably connected to a set of sliding rods 202. Each set of sliding rods 202 has a limiting plate 203 fixedly connected to the ends that are far apart from each other, and an arc-shaped plate 204 fixedly connected to the ends that are close together from each other. Each sliding rod 202 is fitted with a spring 205. When the sampling container is placed between the arc-shaped plates 204, the sampling containers of different diameters will support the arc-shaped plates 204 to different degrees. At the same time, the springs 205 will apply a reaction force to the arc-shaped plates 204, thus completing the fixation of the sampling containers of different diameters. Each shelf 1 has a set of protective pads 5 arranged at equal intervals fixedly connected to its upper surface. Each protective pad 5 is made of rubber and can protect the bottom of the sampling container to prevent collision damage between the sampling container and the shelf 1.
[0027] As attached Figure 1 With appendix Figure 2 As shown: A set of display panels 1 are all provided with a connecting component 3; the connecting component 3 includes a holding structure provided on the set of display panels 1 for connecting the display panels 1 after they are unfolded. The holding structure of the connecting component 3 includes four sets of connecting cylinders 301. The bottom ends of two sets of connecting cylinders 301 are connected to the upper surface of one of the display panels 1, and the bottom ends of the other two sets of connecting cylinders 301 are respectively connected to the upper surfaces of the other two display panels 1. U-shaped rods 302 are inserted into the interior of two sets of connecting cylinders 301. When the display panels 1 are unfolded, the U-shaped rods 302 can be inserted into the interior of the adjacent connecting cylinders 301, thereby forming a holding on the unfolded display panels 1, ensuring that the display panels 1 are in a horizontal and stable state, thereby increasing the placement position of the sampling container and enabling flexible adjustment of the placement position of the sampling container.
[0028] As attached Figure 1 With appendix Figure 2 As shown: A connection structure is set on two of the shelves 1 for stable connection between the shelves 1 after folding. The connection structure of the connection component 3 includes two sets of connection frames 303 fixedly connected to the two shelves 1. A U-shaped plate 304 is inserted into the interior of each set of connection frames 303. When the shelf 1 is folded, the U-shaped plate 304 can be inserted into the interior of the connection frame 303 to form a connection between the two folded shelves 1, so as to prevent the shelves 1 from swinging.
[0029] As attached Figure 1 With appendix Figure 4As shown: A set of shelves 1, one of which is provided with a support assembly 4. The support assembly 4 includes a tube 401 fixedly connected to the bottom surface of one of the shelves 1. Each tube 401 has a support rod 402 inserted inside. The outer surface of each set of support rods 402 is fixedly connected with a reinforcing rod 403. When supporting the shelf 1, the support rod 402 can be inserted into the tube 401 to form a stable support for the shelf 1. At the same time, the reinforcing rod 403 can further improve the firmness of the support for the shelf 1. The bottom end of each set of support rods 402 is fixedly connected with a stabilizing base plate 404. The bottom surface of the stabilizing base plate 404 is provided with anti-slip texture. The stabilizing base plate 404 can stabilize the support rod 402 to prevent the support rod 402 from sliding.
[0030] Working principle: When a sampling container needs to be placed, it is squeezed between two arc-shaped plates 204. The two arc-shaped plates 204 will push the sliding rod 202 and compress the spring 205 until the sampling container is completely between the arc-shaped plates 204. The spring 205 will extend synchronously and push the arc-shaped plates 204 to stably clamp the sampling container, thus enabling the placement of sampling containers of different diameters. When it is necessary to increase the placement position of the sampling container, the U-shaped plate 304 is lifted to disengage it from the connecting frame 303. Then, the placement plate 1 is rotated to be level with the placement plate 1 in the middle position. The U-shaped rod 302 is then inserted into the corresponding connecting cylinder 301, which stabilizes the deflected placement plate 1, thereby flexibly adjusting the placement position of the sampling container, making it more efficient and convenient to use.
