Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of beer transport protection technology, specifically a beer transport protection device. Background Technology
[0002] During beer transportation, especially the transfer of beer kegs, beer kegs often need to be stacked in the transport vehicle to maximize the use of transport space and improve transport efficiency. In order to reduce transport costs, transport companies usually choose to transport more beer kegs at once, and they do so by stacking them.
[0003] However, in actual transportation, beer kegs are prone to mutual friction due to direct stacking. Especially during transportation, unstable factors such as bumps, sudden braking, and turns of the transport vehicle can cause beer kegs to collide with each other, resulting in surface scratches, damage, or even keg breakage, which in turn affects the quality of the beer inside and transportation safety.
[0004] Therefore, this application provides a beer transport protection device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] This application provides a beer transport protection device, which aims to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that when beer barrels are directly stacked, unstable factors such as bumps, sudden braking, and turning of the transport vehicle during transportation can cause beer barrels to collide with each other, resulting in surface scratches, damage, or even barrel breakage.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides the following technical solution: a beer transfer protection device, comprising a beer barrel and a top ring installed on the beer barrel, a barrel base fixedly installed at the lower end of the beer barrel, a lifting groove being provided on the top ring, and a protection mechanism being provided at the upper end of the top ring;
[0007] The protective mechanism includes a base ring inserted into the upper end of the top ring. The inner wall of the base ring is provided with several guide seats arranged in a ring shape. The guide seats are provided with guide grooves. The upper end of the base ring is provided with a support ring. The lower end of the support ring is provided with a protrusion that is inserted into the base ring. The protrusion is provided with several movable grooves that match the guide seats at equal intervals. The upper end of the base ring is provided with several damping rods arranged in a ring shape. The damping rods are fitted with buffer springs. The double-layer structure enhances stability. The spring damping system effectively reduces shock and reduces the risk of barrel wear and breakage.
[0008] Preferably, the piston end of the damping rod is connected to the boss, and the upper and lower ends of the damping rod are respectively connected to the base ring and the boss. The damping rod works in conjunction with the buffer spring to quickly attenuate the impact force and avoid secondary vibration caused by spring overshoot.
[0009] Preferably, a slider that is slidably connected to the guide groove is fixedly installed on the movable groove, and the guide structure prevents the support ring from shifting or tilting, ensuring that the buffer force is evenly distributed.
[0010] Preferably, the base ring has grooves on opposite sides, a hook seat is fixedly installed on the groove, and a lock seat is provided on the base ring to lock with the hook seat.
[0011] Preferably, a connecting seat is mounted on the base ring, and an L-shaped bracket is hinged to the connecting seat. The end of the L-shaped bracket away from the connecting seat is connected to the lock seat.
[0012] This protective device, by placing the protective mechanism between two stacked beer kegs, with the base ring and support ring fitted together by guide seats and protrusions, and a buffer spring sleeved on the outside of the damping rod to provide elastic cushioning, forms a double-layer protective structure with the support ring and base ring.
[0013] This protective device, by setting an L-frame on the base ring and a locking seat installed on the L-frame, connects the locking seat to the top ring on the beer barrel to form a lock, thereby improving the stability of the entire protective mechanism when connected to the beer barrel.

[0021] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0022] This embodiment provides a beer transport protection device, such as... Figure 1-5 As shown, the protective device includes a beer barrel 1 and a top ring 2 installed on the beer barrel 1. A barrel base 11 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the beer barrel 1. A lifting groove 21 is opened on the top ring 2. A protective mechanism 3 is provided at the upper end of the top ring 2.
[0023] The protective mechanism 3 includes a base ring 32 inserted into the upper end of the top ring 2. The inner wall of the base ring 32 is provided with a number of guide seats 321 arranged in a ring. The guide seats 321 are provided with guide grooves 322. The upper end of the base ring 32 is provided with a support ring 31. The lower end of the support ring 31 is provided with a protrusion 311 that is inserted into the base ring 32. The protrusion 311 is provided with a number of movable grooves 313 that match the guide seats 321 at equal intervals. The upper end of the base ring 32 is provided with a number of damping rods 33 arranged in a ring. The damping rods 33 are fitted with buffer springs 34.
[0024] Specifically, the top ring 2 is connected to the beer barrel 1 through the protection mechanism 3. The base ring 32 and the support ring 31 are fitted together through the guide seat 321 and the boss 311. The buffer spring 34 is sleeved on the outside of the damping rod 33 to provide elastic buffering. The support ring 31 and the base ring 32 form a double-layer protection structure. The buffer spring 34 and the damping rod 33 absorb vibration energy and reduce the collision of the beer barrel 1 during transportation. The support ring 31 is mainly used to support the stacked beer barrels 1. When stacking, it is only necessary to insert the barrel seat 11 of the upper beer barrel 1 into the support ring 31. The buffer spring 34 is made of high-strength alloy material with an elastic modulus that can withstand at least two stacked beer barrels 1. The damping rod 33 has a damping coefficient of 0.3-0.5 to ensure good buffering effect under different loads.
[0025] The piston end of the damping rod 33 is connected to the boss 311, and the upper and lower ends of the damping rod 33 are connected to the base ring 32 and the boss 311, respectively.
[0026] More specifically, the upper and lower ends of the damping rod 33 are connected to the base ring 32 and the boss 311, respectively. When the support ring 31 is impacted, the piston movement of the damping rod 33 generates damping force. The damping rod 33 works in conjunction with the buffer spring 34 to quickly attenuate the impact force and avoid secondary vibration caused by spring overshoot. The damping rod 33 adopts a hydraulic structure and is filled with silicone oil inside.
[0027] A slider 312 that is slidably connected to the guide groove 322 is fixedly installed on the movable groove 313.
[0028] Furthermore, the slider 312 slides within the guide groove 322, limiting the relative displacement between the support ring 31 and the base ring 32, ensuring stability during the buffering process. The surface of the slider 312 is inlaid with a polytetrafluoroethylene wear-resistant layer, and the inner wall of the guide groove 322 is chrome-plated, resulting in a low coefficient of friction and reduced sliding resistance.
[0029] The base ring 32 has a groove 323 with opposite sides, a hook seat 324 is fixedly installed on the groove 323, and a lock seat 326 is provided on the base ring 32 to lock with the hook seat 324.
[0030] It should be noted that by manually rotating the L-frame 325, the locking seat 326 on the L-frame 325 is adjusted to be flush with the hook seat 324. The hook ring on the locking seat 326 is locked with the hook seat 324 to form a closed structure. When the base ring 32 is installed on the top ring 2, the groove 323 needs to be aligned with the lifting groove 21.
[0031] A connecting seat is mounted on the base ring 32, and an L-shaped bracket 325 is hinged to the connecting seat. The end of the L-shaped bracket 325 away from the connecting seat is connected to the lock seat 326.
[0032] It is worth mentioning that the L-frame 325 is hinged to the base ring 32 via a connecting seat, and its position can be rotated and adjusted to facilitate the installation and removal of the hook ring on the lock seat 326 and the hook seat 324. The lock seat 326 works on the same principle as the latch lock in the prior art.
[0033] In use, the top ring 2 is connected to the beer barrel 1 through the protection mechanism 3. The base ring 32 and the support ring 31 are fitted together by the guide seat 321 and the boss 311. The buffer spring 34 is sleeved on the outside of the damping rod 33 to provide elastic buffering. The support ring 31 and the base ring 32 form a double-layer protection structure. The buffer spring 34 and the damping rod 33 absorb vibration energy and reduce the collision of the beer barrel 1 during transportation. The support ring 31 is mainly used to support the stacked beer barrels 1. When stacking, it is only necessary to insert the barrel seat 11 of the upper beer barrel 1 into the support ring 31.
[0034] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this application, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this application, based on the technical solution and concept of this application, should be included within the scope of protection of this application.
