Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automation industrial technology, and in particular to a universal pallet frame for conveyors. Background Technology

[0002] General-purpose conveyor pallet frames are widely used in various industrial automation fields, such as automotive manufacturing, electronics manufacturing, and food processing. They are suitable for different types of conveyor lines, such as toothed belt conveyors and sheet belt conveyors, and can meet different material handling needs. Currently, most pallet frames adopt a modular design, resulting in a large number of modular components, which may lead to problems such as improper installation, difficult debugging, or improper maintenance, while also resulting in higher initial investment costs. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a universal pallet frame for conveyors;

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a universal pallet frame for conveyors, comprising four frame strips of the same specifications, which are inserted end to end in sequence to form a quadrilateral frame with right angles at all four corners. The first end of each frame strip has a square groove on its side, and the last end of each frame strip has a square block, which corresponds to the square groove.

[0005] Preferably, the frame bar has a cavity inside, and a plurality of reinforcing ribs are evenly distributed inside the cavity.

[0006] Preferably, the cavity is provided with a plurality of cavities near the tail end of the frame strip, and the cavities are larger the closer they are to the tail end of the frame strip.

[0007] Preferably, the square groove has a semi-elliptical cavity on the side closest to the cavity.

[0008] Preferably, the square block is provided with a weight-reducing hole, the square block is provided with a reinforcing triangle on the side near the cavity, and the other end of the square block is provided with a reinforcing semi-cylinder.

[0009] Preferably, the upper surface of the frame strip is provided with a positioning pin sleeve connecting through hole near the square groove, and the lower surface of the frame strip is provided with a metal reinforcing post near the square block.

[0010] Preferably, a crossbar is provided on the outer side of the upper surface of the frame strip.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model divides the pallet frame into four frame strips of the same specification. The frame strips are connected to each other by their respective square grooves and square blocks through interference fit. The frame strips are inserted end to end to form a square frame, which reduces the number of modules and facilitates installation, later maintenance and replacement. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0016] To provide a better understanding of the purpose, structure, features, and functions of this utility model, detailed descriptions are provided below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0017] Please see Figure 1 An embodiment of the present invention provides a universal pallet frame for a conveyor, comprising four frame strips 1 of the same specification, which are inserted end to end in sequence to form a quadrilateral frame with all four corners being right angles.

[0018] like Figure 2 As shown, the first end of the frame strip 1 has a square groove 3, and the last end of the frame strip 1 has a square block 2, which corresponds to the square groove 3. Furthermore, this design allows the conveyor universal pallet frame to be spliced ​​together from four frame strips 1 of the same specification, simplifying the installation process. While ensuring the stability of the pallet frame's modular design, it also reduces the number of modules required to splice the pallet frame, facilitating later maintenance.

[0019] Preferably, the frame strip 1 has a cavity 102 inside, and a plurality of reinforcing ribs 103 are evenly arranged inside the cavity 102. The cavity 102 can reduce the weight of the frame strip 1, and the reinforcing ribs 103 can improve the strength of the frame strip 1.

[0020] Preferably, the cavity 102 is provided with a plurality of cavities 104 near the tail end of the frame strip 1, and the cavities 104 are larger the closer they are to the tail end of the frame strip 1. This design optimizes the strength of the overall structure. The larger cavities 104 near the tail end of the frame strip 1 can better distribute and bear the possible stress, thereby improving the stability and durability of the entire frame strip.

[0021] Preferably, the square groove 3 has a semi-elliptical cavity 301 on the side near the cavity to enhance the strength of the side near the square groove 3.

[0022] Preferably, the square block 2 is provided with a weight-reducing hole 202, a reinforcing triangle 203 is provided on the side of the square block 2 near the cavity 102, and a reinforcing semi-cylinder 201 is provided at the other end of the square block 2. This design enhances the strength of the square block 2 and extends its service life.

[0023] Preferably, the upper surface of the frame strip 1 is provided with a positioning pin sleeve connecting through hole 105 near the square groove 3, and the lower surface of the frame strip 1 is provided with a metal reinforcing post 106 near the square block, which serves to strengthen the frame strip 1.

[0024] Preferably, a crossbar 101 is provided on the outer side of the upper surface of the frame bar 1. The crossbar 101 serves to limit the position of the tray.

[0025] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
