[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] In practical use, the existing placement structure is fixed, making it difficult to adjust flexibly according to actual needs, resulting in significant limitations in its use. Furthermore, some placement devices with adjustment functions have complex adjustment methods, are inconvenient to operate, and have low adjustment accuracy, failing to meet diverse usage requirements.

[0023] In view of this, the present invention provides an adjustable placement device for a plate freezer, which solves the problems that in actual use, the existing placement structure is fixed and it is difficult to adjust flexibly according to actual needs, resulting in great limitations in use. Furthermore, some placement devices with adjustment functions have complicated adjustment methods, are inconvenient to operate, and have low adjustment accuracy, which cannot meet diverse usage requirements.

[0024] Those skilled in the art can connect the components in this case sequentially. The specific connection and operation sequence should refer to the working principle described below. The detailed connection methods are well-known technologies in the field. The working principle and process are mainly described below.

[0025] Example 1: By Figure 1-6 It is known that an adjustable placement device for a plate freezer includes a freezing box 1, with a placement plate 11 installed inside the freezing box 1. The adjustable placement device for the plate freezer also includes an adjustment device 2, a friction structure 3, and a quick-release structure 4. The adjustment device 2 is installed on the outer wall of the placement plate 11; the friction structure 3 is installed on the top of the freezing box 1; and the quick-release structure 4 is installed on the outer wall of the placement plate 11. The position of the placement plate 11 is adjusted by the adjustment device 2, the friction structure 3 provides a certain resistance during adjustment, and the quick-release structure 4 allows for quick disassembly of the placement plate 11.

[0026] In the specific implementation process, it is worth noting that when placing the product on the placement plate 11 and freezing the product, the placement plate 11 is installed inside the freezing box 1 through the quick-release structure 4. When adjusting according to the size of the product, the height of the placement plate 11 is adjusted using the adjustment device 2. During the adjustment, the friction structure 3 is used to increase the resistance of the adjustment device 2, so that the height and position of the placement plate 11 are adjusted more accurately. The model of the freezing box 1 is not limited, as long as it meets the actual use conditions, and it is powered by an external power supply.

[0027] Furthermore, the adjusting device 2 includes an adjusting block 21, a lead screw 22, a fixed housing 23, a handle 24, and a bolt 25. The adjusting block 21 is installed on the outer wall of the placement plate 11 and slidably engaged with the inner wall of the freezing box 1. The lead screw 22 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the adjusting block 21, and its outer wall is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the freezing box 1 through a sealed bearing. The fixed housing 23 is fixedly connected to the top of the freezing box 1, and its inner wall is rotatably connected to one side of the lead screw 22 extending to the top of the freezing box 1 through a sealed bearing. The handle 24 is fixedly connected to one end of the lead screw 22 extending to the top of the fixed housing 23. The bolt 25 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the handle 24, and one end extending to the bottom of the handle 24 abuts against the top of the fixed housing 23. Through the cooperation of the adjusting block 21 and the lead screw 22, the handle 24 drives the placement plate 11 to rise and fall, the fixed housing 23 supports the lead screw 22, and the bolt 25 fixes the handle 24.

[0028] In the specific implementation process, it is worth noting that grooves are provided on the inner wall of the freezing box 1, which allows the adjusting block 21 to move within the grooves on the inner wall of the freezing box 1. At the same time, threads are provided on the inner wall of the adjusting block 21, which are the same as the threads on the outer wall of the lead screw 22. When the adjusting block 21 and the lead screw 22 are connected by threads, the height of the placement plate 11 will be adjusted. After adjustment, the handle 24 is fixed to the top of the fixed shell 23 using bolts 25. This fixes the position of the placement plate 11 and makes the placement plate 11 stable when placing products.

[0029] Furthermore, the friction structure 3 includes a rotating plate 31 and a friction plate 32. The rotating plate 31 is disposed inside the fixed shell 23 and is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the lead screw 22. The friction plate 32 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating plate 31 and abuts against the top of the freezing box 1. The rotating plate 31 and the friction plate 32 cooperate to make the lead screw 22 subject to a certain resistance when rotating.

[0030] In the specific implementation process, it is worth noting that the friction plate 32 is made of rubber and has a pattern on the bottom, which increases the friction between the friction plate 32 and the freezing box 1. This ensures that the operator feels resistance when rotating the screw 22, thus making it accurate when adjusting the height and position of the placement plate 11.

[0031] Specifically, when using the adjustable placement device of this plate freezer, when freezing the product, the quick-release structure 4 is used to remove the placement plate 11 from the freezing chamber 1, the product is placed on the placement plate 11, and after the placement plate 11 is placed in the freezing chamber 1, the handle 24 is used to drive the lead screw 22 to rotate. Through the threaded connection between the lead screw 22 and the adjusting block 21, the adjusting block 21 drives the placement plate 11 to move in the freezing chamber 1, so that the distance between each placement plate 11 can be adjusted. This ensures that the product is not affected by other placement plates 11 when it is placed. Moreover, when the lead screw 22 rotates, it will drive the rotating plate 31 to rotate inside the fixed shell 23 and cause the friction plate 32 to rotate at the top of the freezing chamber 1. This gives the lead screw 22 a certain resistance when it rotates, so that the operator can feel the resistance when adjusting the placement plate 11, thereby reducing the operator's rotation speed and ensuring that the placement plate 11 is more accurately positioned.

[0032] Example 2: From Figure 1-6It is known that the quick-release structure 4 includes a C-shaped plate 41, a sliding groove 42, and a slider 43. The C-shaped plate 41 is disposed inside the freezing box 1 and is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the adjusting block 21, and is sleeved on the outer wall of the placement plate 11. The sliding groove 42 is opened on the inner wall of the C-shaped plate 41. The slider 43 is slidably engaged with the inner wall of the sliding groove 42 and is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the placement plate 11. Through the cooperation of the C-shaped plate 41 and the sliding groove 42, the slider 43 drives the placement plate 11 to be quickly disassembled.

[0033] In the specific implementation process, it is worth noting that the C-shaped plate 41 can wrap three sides of the placement plate 11, and the side of the placement plate 11 that is not wrapped will be aligned with the door of the freezing box 1, so that the placement plate 11 can be installed inside the C-shaped plate 41. At the same time, a groove 42 is provided on the inner wall of the C-shaped plate 41, which fits into the slider 43 on the outer wall of the placement plate 11. When installing the placement plate 11, the slider 43 is inserted into the groove 42 inside the C-shaped plate 41 to fix the placement plate 11 inside the C-shaped plate 41. This makes it more convenient to install and remove the placement plate 11.

[0034] Furthermore, a limiting block 12 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the C-shaped plate 41, and the outer wall of the limiting block 12 is slidably engaged with the inner wall of the freezing box 1.

[0035] In the specific implementation process, it is worth noting that the limiting block 12 will slide and engage with the inner wall of the freezing box 1. When the C-shaped plate 41 moves, it will drive the limiting block 12 to move inside the freezing box 1. This can ensure the stability of the C-shaped plate 41 during lifting and lowering, and ensure the stability of the placement plate 11 during lifting and lowering.

[0036] Specifically, based on the above embodiments, when freezing the product, the handle 24 is used to drive the lead screw 22 to rotate, and the lead screw 22 is connected to the adjusting block 21 by thread, so that the height between the placement plates 11 meets the size of the product. This makes freezing the product convenient. At the same time, when installing the placement plate 11, the quick-release structure 4 is used to quickly disassemble the placement plate 11, ensuring that it is convenient for the staff to use.

[0037] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
