Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of modular pallet technology, specifically a modular pallet. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional pallets are typically monolithic structures with fixed functions, making them difficult to adapt to diverse cargo types and logistics needs. For example, different types of pallets may be required for goods of different shapes, sizes, and weights, which increases logistics costs and management difficulty. During transportation and warehousing, the fixed size and shape of traditional pallets cannot be adjusted according to the actual size of the goods, easily leading to wasted space.
[0003] Meanwhile, a modular logistics pallet with announcement number CN206798043U is disclosed. The pallet has a plate-shaped base plate with multiple sets of leg connection holes arranged in a rectangular array on the base plate. The width between two adjacent sets of leg connection holes is greater than the width of the corresponding forklift forks. The plate-shaped base plate can support goods on its surface alone, or the plate-shaped base plate can support goods by connecting the support units corresponding to each set of leg connection holes. The support units connected to the base plate can be arranged in a rectangular array and protrude on one side of the base plate surface, with each support unit supporting goods. The adjacent support units form a forklift access channel.
[0004] The aforementioned modular logistics pallet can only improve the production cost control of the pallet, which has significant economic benefits, is reliable and practical. However, it cannot be assembled and used, which will limit its loading flexibility and space utilization. It is difficult to adapt to the transportation needs of goods of different sizes and quantities, and will also lead to the need to equip more independent pallets during transportation, increasing resource waste and logistics costs during use.
[0005] Therefore, a modular pallet is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0028] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, this utility model provides a modular tray, including a magnetic block 15 fixedly provided at the middle of the right rear end of the tray module 1 for magnetic attraction and fixation, a U-shaped buckle 14 fixedly provided at the middle of the upper right side of the tray module 1 for fastening, and a fixing block 11 fixedly provided at the middle of the front right side of the tray module 1, with a spring buckle 12 fixedly provided at the front end of the fixing block 11 for fixation.
[0029] Tray module 2 6 is attached to the right side of tray module 1. A magnetic groove 2 is provided in the middle of the left side of tray module 2 6 to fix it inside the groove. A magnetic block 15 is fixed inside the magnetic groove 2. A groove 4 is provided in the middle of the upper left side of tray module 2 6. A fastening post 5 is fixed inside the groove 4 to fix it. A U-shaped buckle 14 is fixed outside the fastening post 5.
[0030] The left front side of the tray module 2 6 has a vertical groove 3 in the middle, which serves to fix the tray inside the groove. The fixing block 11 and the spring buckle 12 are fixed inside the vertical groove 3.
[0031] A rectangular block 13 is attached to the front end face of the spring clip 12. A cuboid 8 is fixed in the middle of the front end face of the rectangular block 13 to facilitate disassembly. The cuboid 8 is inserted through the front side of the second tray module 6 and the first tray module 1.
[0032] Both the lower front and rear sides of the tray module 2 6 and the tray module 1 have inner grooves 10, and both the upper left and right sides of the tray module 2 6 and the tray module 1 have concave plates 9. The concave plates 9 and the inner grooves 10 are fitted with ropes 7 to fix the whole.
[0033] A magnetic groove 2 is provided in the middle of the rear left side of the tray module 1, and a groove 4 is provided in the middle of the upper left side of the tray module 1. A fastening post 5 is fixed inside the groove 4, and a vertical groove 3 is provided in the middle of the front left side of the tray module 1 to serve as a fixation inside the groove.
[0034] The working principle and process of a modular pallet:
[0035] This modular pallet primarily utilizes the principles of magnetic attraction, snap-fit, and rope 7 for fixing, enabling the assembly of multiple pallet modules to meet diverse usage needs. Initial connections between modules are achieved through the magnetic attraction of magnetic block 15 and magnetic groove 2, the engagement of U-shaped snap-fit 14 and snap-fit post 5, and the cooperation of spring snap-fit 12 and vertical groove 3. Finally, the rope 7, secured within the concave plate 9 and inner groove 10, further reinforces the assembled pallet structure. First, the right side of pallet module 1 is aligned with the left side of pallet module 2. At this point, the magnetic block 15 at the rear right end of pallet module 1 attracts and fixes itself to the magnetic groove 2 at the center left side of pallet module 2. The magnetic block 15 enters the magnetic groove 2, using magnetic force to initially align and fix the two modules in the left-right direction, preventing lateral slippage during assembly. After the magnetic block 15 is fixed to the magnetic groove 2, the pallet module... The U-shaped buckle 14 on the upper right side of the tray module 1 engages with the buckle post 5 in the groove 4 on the upper left side of the tray module 2. The U-shaped buckle 14 is secured to the outside of the buckle post 5, further enhancing the connection stability of the two modules in the vertical direction, making it difficult for the two modules to separate in the vertical direction. Next, the fixing block 11 and spring buckle 12 on the front right side of the tray module 1 are inserted into the vertical groove 3 on the front left side of the tray module 2. The spring buckle 12 has a certain elasticity. After being inserted into the vertical groove 3, it will fit tightly against the inner wall of the vertical groove 3, further fixing the position of the two modules in the front-back direction and preventing the modules from moving back and forth. After the fixing block 11 and spring buckle 12 are fixed inside the vertical groove 3, the rectangular block 13 is attached to the front end face of the spring buckle 12. The rectangular block 8 fixed in the middle of the front end face of the rectangular block 13 facilitates the removal of the spring buckle 12. After completing the above splicing steps, since both the lower front and rear sides of the tray module 2 6 and the tray module 1 have inner grooves 10, and the upper left and right sides have concave plates 9, ropes 7 are placed inside the concave plates 9 and the inner grooves 10 respectively. The purpose of ropes 7 is to reinforce the spliced tray modules as a whole and prevent the connection between modules from loosening due to external forces during use. Since the left rear side of the tray module 1 has a magnetic groove 2, the upper side of the left side has a groove 4 (with a buckle 5 inside), and the front side of the left side has a vertical groove 3, other tray modules can be spliced on the left side of the tray module 1 according to the above splicing steps to achieve continuous splicing of multiple modular trays to meet the needs of larger sizes or different shapes.
