Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cold storage technology, and in particular to a modular cold storage with good insulation effect. Background Technology
[0002] Cold storage is a type of refrigeration equipment. It refers to an artificially created environment with different temperature and humidity than the outside world, used for the constant temperature and humidity storage of food, liquids, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, vaccines, and scientific experimental materials. Cold storage facilities are typically located near ports of transport or the point of origin. Compared to refrigerators, cold storage facilities have a larger refrigeration area and share the same refrigeration principle. There are many types of cold storage, one of which is modular cold storage.
[0003] In the existing technology, modular cold storage is made up of multiple insulation panels. During the splicing process, the two insulation panels are tightly fitted together. However, when the cold storage is moved, the vibration will cause the gap between the two insulation panels to widen, which will affect the insulation effect of the cold storage. Therefore, there is room for improvement. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a modular cold storage unit with excellent insulation performance. Its advantage lies in preventing the insulation panels from loosening, thus improving the insulation quality of the cold storage unit.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A modular cold storage unit with good insulation performance includes a movable base. The top of the movable base is provided with multiple insulation panels, which are spliced together to form a ring structure. The top of the multiple insulation panels is provided with the same top plate. An embedding groove is provided on one side of the insulation panel, and an embedding block is provided on the other side of the insulation panel. The embedding block is adapted to the embedding groove.
[0007] The insulation board has cavities on both sides, and the two cavities are connected by a through-hole. One of the cavities has a hook post inside, and the inner wall of the other cavity is rotatably connected to a rotating post. The outer wall of the rotating post is fixedly connected to a locking hook, which is adapted to the hook post. The surface of the insulation board has a rotating hole, which is connected to the rotating post.
[0008] Through the above technical solution: During cold storage assembly, the embedding block on one side of one insulation board is inserted into the embedding groove of the adjacent insulation board, thereby firmly attaching the two insulation boards together. After the two insulation boards are joined, a tool is inserted into the rotating hole, and the tool rotates the rotating column 90 degrees. The rotating column drives the locking hook to rotate 90 degrees and firmly hooks it onto the hook column, thus completing the fixed connection between the two adjacent insulation boards, preventing the insulation boards from becoming loose, and improving the insulation quality of the cold storage.
[0009] The present invention is further configured such that the insulation board includes a metal cladding layer, and an outer insulation layer and an inner moisture-proof layer are respectively disposed inside the metal cladding layer, and the outer insulation layer and the inner moisture-proof layer are bonded together with adhesive.
[0010] Through the above technical solution, the insulation board is composed of three layers of boards, which increases the thickness of the insulation board and improves its insulation effect.
[0011] The present invention is further configured such that the outer insulation layer is made of polyurethane material and the thickness of the outer insulation layer is 5-10 cm.
[0012] Through the above technical solutions, the thermal conductivity of the outer insulation layer made of polyurethane material is relatively low, which reduces heat exchange between the inside and outside of the cold storage and improves the insulation effect of the cold storage.
[0013] The present invention is further configured such that the metal cladding layer is made of stainless steel.
[0014] Through the above technical solutions, the stainless steel metal cladding layer has excellent corrosion resistance, thus improving the service life of the cold storage.
[0015] The present invention is further provided that an annular mounting groove is provided on one side edge of the insulation board, and a sealing strip is provided inside the annular mounting groove.
[0016] The above technical solution, namely the setting of sealing strips, can seal the gap between the two insulation boards, further improving the insulation effect of the cold storage.
[0017] The present invention is further configured such that the sealing strip is made of thermoplastic elastomer material.
[0018] Through the above technical solutions, the sealing strip made of thermoplastic elastomer material has good elasticity, which makes it easy for the sealing strip to deform under pressure and fill the gap, thus improving the heat preservation effect.
[0019] The present invention is further provided that the surface of the rotating column is provided with a straight rotating groove.
[0020] Through the above technical solution, the design of the single-slot rotating groove allows for easy insertion of tools into the groove to rotate the rotating column, thus improving the ease of rotation of the rotating column.
[0021] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0022] 1. This modular cold storage unit with excellent insulation performance allows for easy assembly. During assembly, the insert block on one side of one insulation panel is inserted into the insert groove of the adjacent insulation panel, firmly securing the two panels together. After the two panels are joined, a tool is inserted into the rotating hole. The tool rotates the rotating column 90 degrees, causing the locking hook to rotate 90 degrees and securely hook onto the hook post. This completes the fixed connection between the two adjacent insulation panels, preventing loosening and improving the insulation quality of the cold storage unit.
[0023] 2. This modular cold storage unit with good insulation performance has insulation panels composed of three layers of boards, which increases the thickness of the insulation panels and improves their insulation effect; the outer insulation layer made of polyurethane material has a low thermal conductivity, which reduces heat exchange between the inside and outside of the cold storage and improves the insulation effect; the metal cladding layer made of stainless steel has good corrosion resistance and improves the service life of the cold storage unit.

The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this patent, and should not be construed as limiting this patent.
[0031] Reference Figure 1-4 A modular cold storage unit with good insulation performance includes a movable base 1. Multiple insulation boards 2 are provided on the top of the movable base 1. The multiple insulation boards 2 are spliced into a ring structure. The top of the multiple insulation boards 2 is provided with the same top plate 3. An embedding groove 8 is provided on one side of the insulation board 2, and an embedding block 7 is provided on the other side of the insulation board 2. The embedding block 7 is adapted to the embedding groove 8.
[0032] The insulation board 2 has cavities 12 on both sides, and the two cavities 12 are connected by a through-hole 4. A hook post 11 is provided inside one of the cavities 12, and a rotating post 10 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the other cavity 12. A locking hook 13 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating post 10. The locking hook 13 is adapted to the hook post 11.

[0033] In this embodiment, the insulation board 2 includes a metal cladding layer 21. An outer insulation layer 22 and an inner moisture-proof layer 23 are respectively disposed inside the metal cladding layer 21. The outer insulation layer 22 and the inner moisture-proof layer 23 are bonded together with adhesive. The insulation board 2 is composed of three layers, thereby increasing the thickness of the insulation board 2 and improving its insulation effect. The outer insulation layer 22 is made of polyurethane material and has a thickness of 5-10 cm. The polyurethane material of the outer insulation layer 22 has a relatively low thermal conductivity, reducing heat exchange between the inside and outside of the cold storage and improving the insulation effect of the cold storage. The metal cladding layer 21 is made of stainless steel. The stainless steel metal cladding layer 21 has good corrosion resistance, improving the service life of the cold storage.
[0034] Furthermore, an annular mounting groove is provided on one edge of the insulation board 2, and a sealing strip 5 is provided inside the annular mounting groove. The sealing strip 5 seals the gap between the two insulation boards 2, further improving the insulation effect of the cold storage. The sealing strip 5 is made of thermoplastic elastomer material, which has good elasticity, making it easy for the sealing strip 5 to deform under pressure and fill the gap, thus improving the insulation effect.
[0035] It is worth mentioning that the surface of the rotating column 10 is provided with a straight rotating groove 9. The straight rotating groove 9 allows tools to be easily inserted into the groove to rotate the rotating column 10, thus improving the ease of rotation of the rotating column 10.
[0036] Working principle: During cold storage assembly, the embedding block 7 on one side of one insulation board 2 is inserted into the embedding groove 8 of the adjacent insulation board 2, thereby firmly attaching the two insulation boards 2 together. After the two insulation boards 2 are joined, a tool is inserted into the rotating hole 6, and the tool rotates the rotating column 10 ninety degrees. The rotating column 10 drives the locking hook 13 to rotate ninety degrees and firmly hook onto the hook column 11, thus completing the fixed connection between the two adjacent insulation boards 2, preventing the insulation boards 2 from becoming loose, and improving the insulation quality of the cold storage.
