It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model.

[0018] like Figure 1-4As shown, this utility model relates to a structurally stable aluminum rod stack, including aluminum rods 1, support plates 2, and insert rods 15, with multiple support plates spaced apart; each support plate has a sliding plate 22 on its top surface, which is welded and fixed to the top surface of the support plate; two sliders 21 are provided inside each sliding plate; the sliders are made of high-strength wear-resistant chromium-nickel-molybdenum alloy steel with a surface hardness greater than HRC. 50, to improve its wear resistance and service life; several aluminum rods are stacked in an alternating manner, wherein the aluminum rod at the bottom layer rests on the support plate and is set between two sliders; the aluminum rods of the second layer are placed perpendicular to the aluminum rods of the first layer; the aluminum rods of the third layer are placed perpendicular to the aluminum rods of the second layer; the aluminum rods of the fourth layer are placed perpendicular to the aluminum rods of the third layer; insert rods 15 are respectively set at the four corners of the aluminum rod stack, and the insert rods are inserted through the aluminum rods of each layer, so that the insert rods can stabilize the aluminum rod stack and reduce the risk of collapse; the cross-section of the aluminum rod body is irregular in the direction perpendicular to the length of the aluminum rod (viewed from one end of the aluminum rod) and is surrounded by the first horizontal plane 6, the first elliptical surface 7, the first vertical plane 8, the second elliptical surface 9, the second horizontal plane 10, the third elliptical surface 11, the second vertical plane 12 and the fourth elliptical surface 13 connected in sequence; and each surface and plane is connected by a smooth transition to ensure the integrity and stability of the structure. The two horizontal planes are parallel to each other, and the two vertical planes are parallel to each other; both the first vertical plane and the second vertical plane are provided with grooves, the depth of which is 1 to 3 cm; the width of the first horizontal plane is less than or equal to the width of the second horizontal plane.

[0019] Furthermore, the end face of the aluminum rod has a cut surface 16.

[0020] Furthermore, the first, second, third, and fourth elliptical surfaces are the same ellipse, with a ratio of 1.153 to 1.224 between their major and minor axes.

[0022] Furthermore, the top surface of the slide plate is provided with a groove 221, and the inner surface of the groove is polished to a surface roughness of less than 0.8μm to reduce the friction of the slider (21) during sliding. A ball bearing 222 is provided on the bottom surface of the groove, and the slider is disposed in the groove and in contact with the ball bearing. A portion of the top surface of the slider protrudes outward from the slider, and side strips 211 are provided on both sides of the slider that are exposed at the groove position.

Simultaneously, this aluminum alloy also possesses good hardness, with a Brinell hardness of 95 HB, effectively enhancing the wear resistance of the aluminum rod and extending its service life. This series also exhibits good corrosion resistance.
