Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of intelligent weighing technology, specifically relating to a weighing sensor bracket that is easy to install. Background Technology

[0002] In intelligent warehousing systems, weighing racks, as one of the core pieces of equipment, undertake the critical tasks of goods storage, real-time monitoring, and weight data collection. Weighing sensors, as the core components for acquiring goods weight information, must be securely installed on the rack structure using dedicated brackets to ensure the accuracy of measurement data and the long-term stability of the system. However, existing weighing sensor brackets have revealed many limitations in practical applications, particularly in terms of ease of installation and flexibility in sensor replacement.

[0003] First, the installation process of existing load cell supports typically requires precise calibration of sensor positions, a cumbersome and time-consuming procedure. Traditional supports usually rely on multiple sets of bolts or welding to connect to the racks, a complex fixing process that is not only difficult to install but also time-consuming. In smart warehousing scenarios, racks frequently bear goods of different sizes, and the complexity of the installation process further exacerbates the difficulty of maintaining warehousing equipment, especially when rapid deployment or adjustment of rack layout is required. The design of traditional load cell supports is clearly inadequate for current practical needs. Second, existing load cell supports also have significant limitations when replacing load cells. Replacing load cells with different sizes requires complete disassembly and custom-made load cell supports. This not only increases downtime for warehousing equipment but also raises maintenance costs. Furthermore, each load cell replacement requires significant time and manpower, severely impacting the overall efficiency of the smart warehousing system. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this section is to outline some aspects of embodiments of the present invention and to briefly describe some preferred embodiments. Simplifications or omissions may be made in this section, as well as in the abstract and title of this application, to avoid obscuring the purpose of these documents; however, such simplifications or omissions should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention.

[0005] The technical problem this invention aims to solve is how to improve the efficiency of installing and replacing weighing sensors in intelligent warehousing systems.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a weighing sensor bracket that is easy to install, used to install weighing sensors. The weighing sensor bracket includes a base, a clamping component, a connecting component, a weighing scale plate, and a fixing component. The upper surface of the base is provided with a groove, and the weighing sensor is set in the groove. During installation, the weighing sensor can be directly installed into the groove, avoiding complex welding or bonding processes and improving assembly efficiency. The clamping component is set in the groove and is used to replace weighing sensors of different specifications. The weighing scale plate is set on the weighing sensor through the connecting component, and the base is set on the shelf through the fixing component.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of the easy-to-install load cell bracket of this utility model, the clamping component includes two springs and two clamping plates. The two springs are respectively disposed at both ends of the groove, and the two clamping plates are respectively disposed on the two springs, so that the base can be adapted to load cells of different specifications.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the easy-to-install weighing sensor bracket of this utility model, the connecting component includes a through hole and a bolt.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the easy-to-install weighing sensor bracket of this utility model, the upper surface of the weighing scale is provided with a limiting component, which includes two first baffles and a second baffle. The two first baffles are symmetrically arranged on the front and rear sides of the upper surface of the weighing scale, and the second baffle is arranged on the right side of the upper surface of the weighing scale, so as to prevent the object to be measured from sliding or shifting during the weighing process and avoid measurement errors caused by the displacement of the object.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the easy-to-install weighing sensor bracket of this utility model, the limiting component further includes a limiting post, which is disposed on the left side of the upper surface of the weighing scale plate, and plays a certain limiting role to further avoid measurement errors caused by the movement of the object.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the easy-to-install load cell bracket of this utility model, the outer surface of the clamp is uniformly distributed with arc-shaped rubber pads, which not only provide a certain degree of protection for the load cell, but also increase the friction between the load cell and the clamp, preventing relative displacement of the load cell during use and improving the reliability of the load cell installation.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the easy-to-install weighing sensor bracket of this utility model, the weighing plate is made of thick steel plate, which can effectively distribute the force and make the weighing sensor uniformly stressed, thereby improving the accuracy and stability of weighing.

[0023] Example

[0024] Reference Figures 1-3 This embodiment provides a load cell 3 bracket that is easy to install. The load cell 3 bracket includes a base 4, a clamping member, a connecting member, a weighing scale 1, and a fixing member. The upper surface of the base 4 has a groove 7, in which the load cell 3 is disposed. The clamping member is disposed in the groove 7 for replacing load cells 3 of different specifications. The weighing scale 1 is disposed on the load cell 3 through the connecting member. The base 4 is disposed on the shelf through the fixing member.

[0025] The base 4 has a rectangular structure and serves as the mounting base for the entire load cell 3 bracket. A groove 7 is formed on the upper surface of the base 4. During assembly, the load cell 3 can be directly installed into the groove 7 for quick installation, avoiding complex welding or bonding processes and improving assembly efficiency. Clamping components are also installed in the groove 7, which not only allow for quick replacement of load cells 3 of different specifications but also further clamp and fix the load cell 3, improving the reliability of the load cell 3 installation. A weighing scale 1 is mounted on the top of the load cell 3 via a connector for weighing the item to be measured. The bottom of the base 4 can be directly installed onto a shelf via a fixing component, reducing operational difficulty and greatly improving assembly efficiency. In this embodiment, the load cell 3 bracket adopts a modular design. Through the cooperation of the clamping components, connectors, and fixing components, it not only facilitates the installation of the load cell 3 and improves assembly efficiency but also allows for quick replacement of load cells 3 of different specifications to adapt to diverse application scenarios.

[0026] Specifically, the clamping component includes two springs 13 and two clamping plates 14. The two springs 13 are respectively located at both ends of the groove 7, and the two clamping plates 14 are respectively located on the two springs 13.

[0027] The clamping component in this embodiment mainly consists of two springs 13 and two clamping plates 14. One spring 13 is fixedly installed at each end of the groove 7, and a clamping plate 14 is installed at the other end of each of the two springs 13, so that the base 4 can be adapted to weighing sensors 3 of different specifications. The clamping plates 14 on the springs 13 can also further clamp and fix the weighing sensors 3, thereby improving the stability of the weighing sensors 3 installation.

[0028] Specifically, the connector includes a through hole 5 and a bolt 6. The through hole 5 is opened on the weighing scale 1, and the bolt 6 passes through the through hole 5 to fix the weighing scale 1 to the weighing sensor 3.

[0029] In this embodiment, the connector mainly consists of a through hole 5 and a bolt 6. A through hole 5 is provided on the weighing plate 1, and the bolt 6 passes through the through hole 5 and connects to the existing mounting threaded hole on the weighing sensor 3 to achieve a quick connection between the weighing sensor 3 and the weighing plate 1. This allows the disassembly and installation of the weighing sensor 3 to be carried out without the use of complicated tools, and the quick replacement of weighing sensors 3 of different specifications can be completed simply by turning the bolt 6.

[0030] Specifically, the fasteners include two buckle plates 8 and screws 11. The top of each buckle plate 8 is provided with a first mounting hole 9. The screws 11 pass through the first mounting holes 9 to symmetrically fix the two buckle plates 8 at the bottom of both ends of the base 4. The bottom of each buckle plate 8 is provided with a second mounting hole 10.

[0031] The fastener in this embodiment mainly consists of two buckle plates 8 and screws 11. The buckle plates 8 have a "Z" shaped structure. A first mounting hole 9 is provided on the top of the buckle plate 8, and a second mounting hole 10 is provided on the bottom of the buckle plate 8. The screws 11 pass through the first mounting hole 9 to symmetrically fix the two buckle plates 8 to the bottom of both ends of the base 4, so as to realize the quick installation between the buckle plates 8 and the base 4. The screws 11 pass through the second mounting hole 10 to directly thread and fix the buckle plates 8 onto the shelf (not shown in the attached figure). No additional fixing tools or complex processes are required. The entire load cell 3 bracket can be fixed with a simple threaded connection. The fixing process is simple, reduces the operation difficulty, greatly improves the assembly efficiency, and is particularly suitable for use in scenarios where space is limited or frequent adjustments are required.

[0032] Furthermore, the upper surface of the weighing scale 1 is provided with limiting components, which include two first baffles 2 and a second baffle 15. The two first baffles 2 are symmetrically arranged on the front and rear sides of the upper surface of the weighing scale 1, and the second baffle 15 is arranged on the right side of the upper surface of the weighing scale 1.

[0033] In this embodiment, a limiting component is installed on the upper surface of the weighing scale 1. Specifically, the limiting component mainly consists of two first baffles 2 and a second baffle 15. The first baffles 2 are symmetrically installed on the front and rear sides of the upper surface of the weighing scale 1, and the second baffle 15 is fixedly installed on the right side of the upper surface of the weighing scale 1 to prevent the item to be measured from sliding or shifting during the weighing process, and to avoid measurement errors caused by the displacement of the item.

[0034] Furthermore, the limiting component also includes a limiting post 12, which is located on the left side of the upper surface of the weighing scale plate 1.

[0035] The limiting component in this embodiment also includes a limiting post 12. By installing the limiting post 12 on the left side of the upper surface of the weighing scale 1, the left side of the item to be measured is limited to a certain extent, further avoiding measurement errors caused by the movement of the item.

[0036] Furthermore, circular arc rubber pads 16 are evenly distributed on the outer surface of the clamping plate 14.

[0037] In this embodiment, the circular arc rubber pads 16 are evenly distributed on the outer surface of the clamping plate 14, which not only provide a certain protection for the weighing sensor 3, but also increase the friction between the weighing sensor 3 and the clamping plate 14, preventing the weighing sensor 3 from being displaced during use and improving the reliability of the installation of the weighing sensor 3.

[0038] Furthermore, the weighing scale 1 is made of thick steel plate, and the base 4 is made of square steel pipe and thick steel plate.

[0039] In this embodiment, the weighing scale 1 is made of thick steel plate, which can effectively distribute the force and make the weighing sensor 3 bear the force evenly, thereby improving the accuracy and stability of weighing. The base 4 is made of square steel pipe and thick steel plate, which can improve the compressive strength of the base 4, and it is not easy to deform under pressure. It can ensure the accuracy of weighing and can withstand a maximum weight of 50kg, avoiding weighing errors caused by deformation of the base 4.

[0040] During assembly, first separate the two clamping plates 14 towards the two ends of the groove 7, place the load cell 3 in the groove 7, and clamp the two ends of the load cell 3 with the elastic force of the spring 13. Then, the bolt 6 passes through the through hole 5 on the weighing plate 1 and connects with the existing mounting threaded hole on the load cell 3 to complete the installation of the weighing plate 1. Next, the screw 11 passes through the first mounting hole 9 on the top of the two buckle plates 8 and connects with the mounting threaded hole at the bottom of both ends of the base 4 to complete the connection between the two buckle plates 8 and the base 4. Finally, the load cell 11 is then installed. Screw 11 passes through the second mounting hole 10 at the bottom of the two buckle plates 8 and connects with the corresponding mounting threaded hole on the shelf to realize the connection of the entire load cell 3 bracket to the shelf; when it is necessary to replace the load cell 3 of different specifications, simply loosen the bolt 6, remove the weighing plate 1 from the load cell 3, then open the clamp 14, take out the original load cell 3 from the groove 7 of the base 4 and place the new load cell 3 in the groove 7, and then install the weighing plate 1 onto the new load cell 3 again with the bolt 6.

[0041] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
