[0025] The present invention will be further explained below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the following specific embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0026] Please see Figures 1-5 A pipe storage rack includes a base plate 1. Two L-shaped fixing frames 2 are mounted on the top of the base plate 1, and the distance between the two L-shaped fixing frames 2 is adjustable. Each L-shaped fixing frame 2 has a storage plate 3 horizontally inserted into it, and the two storage plates 3 are mirror images of each other. Each storage plate 3 has a downwardly sloping, back-and-forth curved groove, with the top and bottom openings of the groove located away from the vertical bars of the L-shaped fixing frame 2. The top opening of the groove is designed to open, facilitating the insertion of the end of a pipe. The grooves of the two storage plates 3 can slide and engage with the ends of pipes respectively, and the two storage plates 3 can collectively store several pipes. The L-shaped fixing frames 2 are fixed to adjacent storage plates 3 by locking components 4. An intermittent release component 5 is installed at the bottom opening of the groove of each storage plate 3. The two intermittent release components 5 work together to release one pipe at a time.

[0027] The storage plate 3 and the L-shaped fixing frame 2 are fastened together by quick release. The width of the groove of the storage plate 3 is adapted to the diameter of the pipe. The bottom of the base plate 1 has a notch for easy insertion of forklift forks, which facilitates the overall movement of the pipe storage rack.

[0028] Each locking component 4 includes a mounting base 401 fixedly connected to an L-shaped fixing frame 2, with a pin 403 vertically slidably mounted on the mounting base 401. A block 404 with rounded corners extends laterally from the side plate of the storage plate 3, and the L-shaped fixing frame 2 has a through hole adapted to accommodate the through-hole of the block 404. The pin 403 has an angled end adapted to guide the rounded corner of the block 404, and the block 404 has a slot adapted for vertical insertion of the pin 403. A spring 402 is fixedly connected to the non-angled end of the pin 403, and the other end of the spring 402 is fixedly connected to the mounting base 401. A pull plate extends laterally from the mounting base 401 from the pin 403, and the pull plate is used to pull the pin 403 to move.

[0029] Each intermittent release assembly 5 includes a mounting plate 501 that is inserted into an L-shaped fixed frame 2. A rotating shaft 502 is laterally mounted on the mounting plate 501. A worm gear 503 is coaxially fixedly sleeved on the rotating shaft 502, and the worm gear 503 meshes with a worm 504. A drive motor 505 with its output end coaxially fixedly connected to the worm 504 is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate 501. Several release plates 506 are evenly distributed in a ring at the end of the mounting plate 501, and the release plates 506 are located next to the bottom opening of the storage plate 3. After the pipe rolls out from the bottom opening of the chute of the storage plate 3, the pipe falls between two release plates 506 whose openings face the bottom opening of the chute and is temporarily stuck. Then the rotating shaft 502 rotates, causing the pipe to move downward and eventually fall. At the same time as the previous pipe falls, the next rolled-out pipe falls between two release plates 506, and the two pipes are stuck adjacent to each other.

[0030] The release plate 506 is inserted laterally into the rotating shaft 502, and the rotating shaft 502 is threadedly connected to a fixing cover 507 that presses down on the release plate 506. The length of the release plate 506 extending out of the rotating shaft 502 is the same as the diameter of the pipe, and different release plates 506 can be selected according to the diameter of the pipe. The fixing cover 507 is provided with hexagonal protrusions for easy turning with a wrench.

[0031] The bottom of the mounting plate 501 is inserted into the L-shaped fixing frame 2 at an angle. After the mounting plate 501 is inserted into the L-shaped fixing frame 2 at an angle, the top of the mounting plate 501 is vertical.

[0032] Each L-shaped fixed frame 2 has an inverted T-shaped drive block 7 fixedly connected to its bottom, and the base plate 1 has a through groove adapted to the sliding of the inverted T-shaped drive block 7. The base plate 1 is rotatably connected to a bidirectional threaded rod 6, and two inverted T-shaped drive blocks 7 are respectively threaded to both ends of the bidirectional threaded rod 6. One end of the bidirectional threaded rod 6 is coaxially connected to a turntable 8. By rotating the turntable 8, the bidirectional threaded rod 6 is driven to rotate, and the bidirectional threaded rod 6 drives the two inverted T-shaped drive blocks 7 to move closer or further apart, thereby adjusting the distance between the two storage plates 3.

[0033] Working principle:

[0034] Select a storage plate 3 with a chute width that matches the diameter of the pipe. Then, install the storage plate 3 on the L-shaped fixed frame 2. Then, rotate the turntable 8 to adjust the distance between the two storage plates 3 to match the length of the pipe. Next, put the end of the pipe into the top opening of the chute of the storage plate 3. Insert both ends of the pipe into the chute of the two storage plates 3 respectively. Store several pipes in the chute of the two storage plates 3 in sequence. The pipes roll down the chute. The bottom pipe rolls out of the chute of the storage plate 3 and falls between the two release plates 506 and is temporarily stuck. Then, the drive motor 505 drives the worm wheel 503 to rotate through the worm 504. The worm wheel 503 drives the rotating shaft 502 to rotate, so that the pipe moves down and finally falls. At the same time as the previous pipe falls, the next rolled-out pipe falls between the two release plates 506 and the two pipes are stuck adjacent to each other. In this way, the single discharge of the pipe is achieved.

[0035] When installing the storage plate 3 on the L-shaped fixing frame 2, align the bottom protrusion of the storage plate 3 with the sliding groove of the L-shaped fixing frame 2 and push it horizontally. During the movement of the storage plate 3, the insert 404 penetrates the L-shaped fixing frame 2, and the rounded corner of the insert 404 and the bevel of the pin 403 cooperate to push the pin 403 to move upward first to compress the spring 402. When the storage plate 3 moves to the installation position, the pin 403 aligns with the slot of the insert 404. Under the elastic force of the spring 402, the pin 403 inserts into the slot of the insert 404, making the storage plate 3 unable to move. When disassembling the storage plate 3, simply pull the pin 403 away from the insert 404 by pulling the pull plate, that is, pull out the storage plate 3 horizontally.

[0036] It should be noted that the above content merely illustrates the technical concept of this utility model and cannot be used to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of this utility model, and all such improvements and modifications fall within the scope of protection of the claims of this utility model.
