Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of medical dressings, and specifically relates to a space-saving storage rack. Background Technology
[0002] In light industrial production fields such as bandage, nonwoven fabric, and plaster manufacturing, the buffering of strip materials is a crucial step in the production process. Currently, the commonly used strip material buffering tanks in the industry employ a structure design with staggered guide rollers. Their working principle involves the strip material sequentially passing over the guide rollers, forming a continuous S-shaped storage state within the buffering tank. From a space utilization perspective, to achieve sufficient material buffering length, traditional buffering tanks require continuously increasing the number of guide rollers and extending the horizontal length of the buffering tank, resulting in a significant increase in the three-dimensional space occupancy rate of the buffering tank.
[0003] Therefore, existing bar-shaped material buffer tanks have significant shortcomings in terms of space utilization efficiency, material storage performance, and production adaptability, and there is an urgent need for a new type of storage rack technology that can effectively solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a space-saving storage rack that effectively shortens the horizontal length of the buffer slot and reduces the floor space occupied by the storage rack in the production workshop when storing strip materials of the same length.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0006] A space-saving storage rack includes a first guide roller on a U-shaped groove, the first guide roller being located at the upper part of the U-shaped groove, a second guide roller being located below the first guide roller, and a third guide roller being located next to the second guide roller, the second guide roller and the third guide roller being located at the lower part of the U-shaped groove;
[0007] A fourth guide roller is located above the third guide roller, a fifth guide roller is located diagonally below the fourth guide roller, a sixth guide roller is located diagonally above the fifth guide roller, a seventh guide roller is located diagonally below the sixth guide roller, an eighth guide roller is located diagonally above the seventh guide roller, a ninth guide roller is located diagonally below the eighth guide roller, and a tenth guide roller is located diagonally above the ninth guide roller.
[0008] Preferably, the first guide roller, the fourth guide roller, the sixth guide roller, the eighth guide roller, and the tenth guide roller are located at the upper part of the U-shaped groove;
[0009] The second, third, fifth, and seventh guide rollers are located at the bottom of the U-shaped groove.
[0010] Preferably, the eighth guide roller is located directly above the sixth guide roller, and the tenth guide roller is located directly above the fourth guide roller.
[0011] Preferably, the ninth guide roller is located directly above the fifth guide roller, and the fifth guide roller is located between the eighth guide roller and the tenth guide roller.
[0012] Preferably, the diameter of the eighth guide roller is greater than the diameter of the sixth guide roller; the diameter of the tenth guide roller is greater than the diameter of the fourth guide roller.
[0013] Preferably, the diameter of the ninth guide roller is smaller than the diameter of the fifth guide roller.
[0014] Preferably, it also includes an eleventh guide roller and a twelfth guide roller, with the eleventh guide roller located diagonally below the tenth guide roller and the twelfth guide roller located directly above or diagonally above the eleventh guide roller.
[0015] Preferably, the strip material that needs to be buffered passes sequentially around the first guide roller, the second guide roller, the third guide roller, the fourth guide roller, the fifth guide roller, the sixth guide roller, the seventh guide roller, the eighth guide roller, the ninth guide roller, the tenth guide roller, the eleventh guide roller, and the twelfth guide roller.
[0016] The present invention can achieve the following beneficial effects:
[0017] The guide rollers employ a differentiated diameter design; for example, the eighth guide roller has a larger diameter than the sixth guide roller, the tenth guide roller has a larger diameter than the fourth guide roller, and the ninth guide roller has a smaller diameter than the fifth guide roller. This design ensures that the gap between adjacent layers of strip material is small and that they do not rub against each other. This invention changes the traditional continuous S-shaped storage path for strip material, allowing the material to move up and down the storage rack in a spiral-like path. When storing strip material of the same length, this layout effectively shortens the horizontal length of the buffer tank and reduces the floor space occupied by the storage rack in the production workshop. Attached Figure Description
[0018] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments:
[0019] Figure 1 This is a structural diagram of the present utility model;
[0020] Figure 2 This is a structural diagram of the existing storage rack.
[0021] In the diagram: First guide roller 1, second guide roller 2, third guide roller 3, fourth guide roller 4, fifth guide roller 5, sixth guide roller 6, seventh guide roller 7, eighth guide roller 8, ninth guide roller 9, tenth guide roller 10, eleventh guide roller 11, twelfth guide roller 12, U-shaped groove 13. Detailed Implementation
[0022] Preferred solutions include Figure 1As shown, a space-saving storage rack includes a first guide roller 1 on a U-shaped groove, the first guide roller 1 being located at the upper part of the U-shaped groove, a second guide roller 2 being located below the first guide roller 1, a third guide roller 3 being located next to the second guide roller 2, and the second guide roller 2 and the third guide roller 3 being located at the lower part of the U-shaped groove.
[0023] A fourth guide roller 4 is located above the third guide roller 3. A fifth guide roller 5 is located diagonally below the fourth guide roller 4. A sixth guide roller 6 is located diagonally above the fifth guide roller 5. A seventh guide roller 7 is located diagonally below the sixth guide roller 6. An eighth guide roller 8 is located diagonally above the seventh guide roller 7. A ninth guide roller 9 is located diagonally below the eighth guide roller 8. A tenth guide roller 10 is located diagonally above the ninth guide roller 9.
[0024] This storage rack is used in applications such as the preparation of wound dressings, non-woven fabrics, and bandages. It is used to buffer certain strip-shaped materials. Common buffer slots include... Figure 2 As shown, the design includes staggered guide rollers, around which strip-shaped materials pass sequentially, resulting in a continuous S-shaped storage pattern within the buffer tank. A drawback of the existing design is that it increases the length of the buffer tank, making it larger and occupying more installation space.
[0025] This storage rack, by changing the layout of multiple guide rollers, can shorten the length of the buffer tank and save equipment installation space while storing strip materials of the same length.
[0026] The first guide roller on the U-shaped trough is positioned at the top, providing initial guidance for the strip-shaped material. The second and third guide rollers are located at the bottom of the U-shaped trough, and the three together form a preliminary material guiding path framework. Subsequent guide rollers will further construct a complete material storage path based on this framework.
[0027] Furthermore, the first guide roller 1, the fourth guide roller 4, the sixth guide roller 6, the eighth guide roller 8, and the tenth guide roller 10 are located at the upper part of the U-shaped groove;
[0028] The second guide roller 2, the third guide roller 3, the fifth guide roller 5, and the seventh guide roller 7 are located at the bottom of the U-shaped groove.
[0029] The basic principle of buffering strip materials on this storage rack is that the strip materials move up and down the storage rack, but the route is not a continuous S-shape, but a spiral-like route, so as to save space on this storage rack without reducing the path.
[0030] Furthermore, the eighth guide roller 8 is located directly above the sixth guide roller 6, and the tenth guide roller 10 is located directly above the fourth guide roller 4.
[0031] The eighth guide roller 8 and the sixth guide roller 6 are arranged vertically, and the diameter of the eighth guide roller 8 is larger than the diameter of the sixth guide roller 6; the diameter of the tenth guide roller 10 is larger than the diameter of the fourth guide roller 4. Specifically, the diameter of the tenth guide roller 10 is 1-2 cm larger than the diameter of the fourth guide roller 4. The purpose of this size design is to ensure that the gap between adjacent layers of strip material is relatively small and that the strip material will not rub against each other.
[0032] Following the same design principle, the ninth guide roller 9 is located directly above the fifth guide roller 5, and the fifth guide roller 5 is located between the eighth guide roller 8 and the tenth guide roller 10. Furthermore, the diameter of the ninth guide roller 9 is smaller than the diameter of the fifth guide roller 5.
[0033] Furthermore, it also includes an eleventh guide roller 11 and a twelfth guide roller 12, with the eleventh guide roller 11 located diagonally below the tenth guide roller 10 and the twelfth guide roller 12 located directly above or diagonally above the eleventh guide roller 11.
[0034] The positions of the eleventh guide roller 11 and the twelfth guide roller 12 are mainly used to adjust the discharge direction of the strip material. The distance between the eleventh guide roller 11 and the twelfth guide roller 12 can be determined according to the position of the equipment at the rear end of the storage rack.
[0035] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown in the attached diagram, the strip material to be buffered passes sequentially around the first guide roller 1, the second guide roller 2, the third guide roller 3, the fourth guide roller 4, the fifth guide roller 5, the sixth guide roller 6, the seventh guide roller 7, the eighth guide roller 8, the ninth guide roller 9, the tenth guide roller 10, the eleventh guide roller 11, and the twelfth guide roller 12. As can be seen from the attached diagram, the spacing between each layer of strip material can be very narrow, which helps to save space and materials in the storage rack when storing the same length of material.
[0036] The above embodiments are merely preferred technical solutions of this utility model and should not be considered as limitations on this utility model. The protection scope of this utility model should be the technical solution described in the claims, including equivalent substitutions of the technical features described in the claims. That is, equivalent substitutions and improvements within this scope are also within the protection scope of this utility model.
