[0039] Example

[0040] This embodiment provides an automatic inventory device for steel bars used in construction, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, it includes a frame 1000, a support and partition assembly 2000, a sensor and touch control assembly 3000, and a door 4000.

[0041] The frame 1000 has an open cavity. The support and partition assembly 2000 is disposed in the cavity, dividing the cavity into several storage compartments. Each storage compartment is provided with a support. The storage compartment is used to store steel bar bundles 5000. The sensing and touch control assembly 3000 is disposed on one side and inside the frame 1000, and is used to sense and count the weight of the steel bars in the storage compartment. The door 4000 is movably connected to the opening of the cavity.

[0042] The upper and lower sides of the cavity opening of the frame 1000 are provided with limiting grooves 1100. The door 4000 can move within the limiting grooves 1100. One end of the cavity opening of the frame 1000 is connected to the outside through a moving groove. Gears 1300 are rotatably connected at the grooves 1200 at the upper and lower ends of the moving groove.

[0043] In this embodiment, the frame 1000 is provided with a gear 1300 and a slot 1500 for accommodating the end of the door 4000.

[0044] The cabinet door 4000 includes door panels 4100, a pair of door panels 4100 are symmetrically spaced apart, and their ends are connected by limiting rods 4400. A transparent plate 4200 is embedded between the door panels 4100 and the limiting rods 4400. The door panels 4100 are respectively embedded in the limiting grooves 1100.

[0045] In this embodiment, the door panel 4100 is provided with a rack 4300 that meshes with the gear 1300.

[0046] The door 4000 can be moved horizontally along the slot 1500 on one side of the frame 1000. The two racks 4300 on the surface of the door panel 4100 drive the gear 1300 to rotate. Under the restraint of the gear 1300, the door panel 4100 is pushed in the limiting groove 1100, which can prevent the door panel 4100 from jamming. It can also prevent the steel bar bundle 5000 stored inside the frame 1000 from sliding out after the door 4000 is closed. The presence of the transparent plate 4200 allows the steel bar bundle 5000 inside the device to be observed without opening it. The limiting rod 4400 prevents the door 4000 from moving excessively.

[0047] like Figure 4 As shown, the support partition assembly 2000 includes a load-bearing plate 2100, a reinforcing rod 2200, and a support plate 2300.

[0048] The load-bearing plate 2100 is disposed in the cavity, and multiple load-bearing plates 2100 are spaced apart in the horizontal direction, with their ends fixed to the frame 1000.

[0049] Multiple reinforcing rods 2200 pass through the load-bearing plate 2100 and are connected to the frame 1000. They are fixed to the load-bearing plate 2100, and a storage compartment for placing the steel bar bundle 5000 is formed between adjacent reinforcing rods 2200.

[0050] The support plate 2300 is located below the load-bearing plate 2100, and a spring 2400 is provided between it and the load-bearing plate 2100 to support the load-bearing plate 2100. It is sleeved with the reinforcing rod 2200 and fixed to the frame 1000 and the reinforcing rod 2200 by angle steel 2500.

[0051] In this embodiment, the support plate 2300 is provided with a slot 2600 at the position corresponding to the middle of the storage compartment for installing the sensing touch component 3000.

[0052] In this embodiment, the storage compartment is provided with a storage slot 2800 for storing the steel bar bundles 5000.

[0053] The sensing touch component 3000 includes a touch component 3100 and a weight sensor 3200.

[0054] The touch component includes a touch component 3100 disposed on one side of the frame 1000, which includes a touch screen and a control box, and the touch screen and the control box are electrically connected.

[0055] The weight sensor 3200 is located in the slot 2600, and its sensing end is connected to the bottom of the load-bearing plate 2100. It is electrically connected to the control box through the hole 1400 of the frame 1000 via the cable strip 3300.

[0056] When assembling the reinforcing rod 2200 and the load-bearing plate 2100, the surface of the reinforcing rod 2200 is also fitted with the support plate 2300. After the load-bearing plate 2100 is installed, the support plate 2300 is connected to the surrounding frame 1000 and the reinforcing rod 2200 with angle steel 2500. The weight sensor 3200 is embedded in the slot 2600 and can provide support and reinforcement at the bottom of the load-bearing plate 2100. Then, the reinforcing bars are inserted into the storage slots 2800 above the load-bearing plate 2100 in sequence. Every two sets of storage slots 2800 are monitored in real time by the weight sensor 3200 at the bottom, and the data is transmitted through the cable tray 3300. The measured weight data is sent to the control box, and the load capacity of different load-bearing plates 2100 is displayed on the touch screen to prevent the storage device from being overloaded and collapsing. Finally, the door 4000 moves horizontally along the slot 1500 of the frame 1000. The two racks 4300 on the surface of the door panel 4100 drive the gear 1300 to rotate. Under the restriction of the gear 1300, the door 4000 is pushed in the limiting slot 1100 to prevent the door 4000 from jamming. After the door 4000 is closed, it also prevents the steel bar bundles 5000 stored inside the frame 1000 from sliding out of the storage slot 2800.

[0057] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0058] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of this patent application should be determined by the appended claims.
