[0029] like Figures 1-6 As shown, a strapping device for reducing cigarette stack collapse in a vehicle includes a vehicle compartment 100, with a storage space 101 inside the compartment 100. First guide rails 200 are fixed at each of the four corners of the storage space 101. Second guide rails 300, which slide towards and away from the opening of the storage space 101, are provided on the left and right sides of the storage space 101. The second guide rails 300 are vertically arranged and slidably inserted between two first guide rails 200. Each of the two second guide rails 300 has a sliding plate assembly 400 that can slide up and down. A detachable strapping assembly 500 is provided between the two sliding plate assemblies 400. The strapping assembly 500 can elastically extend to fix the cigarette position, reduce cigarette stack collapse and compression, reduce cigarette damage, improve delivery efficiency, and reduce the exchange time between industrial and retail stores caused by cigarette stack collapse and damage.
[0030] In one embodiment, the first guide rail 200 includes a horizontal guide rail 201, a first T-shaped groove 202 is provided in the horizontal guide rail 201, and a protrusion 203 is provided on the side of the horizontal guide rail 201 near the vertical inner wall of the storage space 101, and a locking groove 204 is provided in the protrusion 203.
[0031] Specifically, the locking groove 204 can be a U-shaped groove or a rectangular groove. The embodiment shown in the figure is a rectangular groove. After the first bolt 304 is tightened, a self-locking structure is formed to prevent the second guide rail 300 from sliding.
[0032] In one embodiment, the second guide rail 300 includes a vertical guide rail 301, with T-shaped portions 303 at both its upper and lower ends. The T-shaped portions 303 are inserted into a first T-shaped groove 202 and slidably connected to the first T-shaped groove 202. A first bolt 304 is threaded onto the vertical guide rail 301. The first bolt 304 can penetrate the vertical guide rail 301 and press against the inner wall of the locking groove 204 to restrict the sliding of the second guide rail 300. A second T-shaped groove 302 is provided in the vertical guide rail 301, and an insertion hole 305 is provided in the second T-shaped groove 302 that penetrates the vertical guide rail 301. The insertion hole 305 is used to install the sliding plate assembly 400.
[0033] The first bolt 304 has a recessed hexagon in the middle, which facilitates tightening with an internal hex wrench.
[0034] In one embodiment, the sliding plate assembly 400 includes a sliding plate 401, with guide slides 402 on both sides of the sliding plate 401. The sliding plate 401 and the guide slides 402 are slidably mounted in a second T-groove 302. A second bolt 404 is threadedly connected to the sliding plate 401. The second bolt 404 can penetrate the sliding plate 401 and abut against the inner wall of the second T-groove 302 to restrict the movement of the sliding plate assembly 400. A retaining ring 403 is fixed on the sliding plate 401.
[0035] Both the first bolt 304 and the second bolt 404 do not require a nut; they only need a threaded shank and a bolt head that is easy to tighten. During operation, the shank of the first bolt 304 is pressed against the inner wall of the locking groove 204, and the shank of the second bolt 404 is pressed against the inner wall of the second T-slot 302.
[0036] In one embodiment, the strap assembly 500 includes a strap rope 501, with connecting rings 503 at both ends of the strap rope 501. The strap rope 501 is sleeved on the connecting rings 503, and an elastic rope 504 is connected to the connecting rings 503. The elastic rope 504 is elastic, and a hook 502 is connected to one end of the elastic rope 504. The hook 502 can hook onto the fixing ring 403, and one end of the elastic rope 504 can be tied to the hook 502 by tying a knot. The other end of the elastic rope 504 can be tied to the connecting ring 503 by tying a knot.
[0037] Specifically, the 504 elastic rope can be made of elastic rubber bands, with two connected in parallel.
[0038] In one embodiment, multiple second guide rails 300 are provided and arranged symmetrically on the left and right sides. The number of second guide rails 300 is the same on the left and right sides. Several sliding plate assemblies 400 are provided for installing strapping assemblies 500. The number of strapping assemblies 500 is set according to the height of the cigarette stack. For example, when the stacking height of the cigarettes is greater than two-thirds of the carriage, more than three strapping assemblies 500 can be set to prevent the stack from collapsing.
[0039] The method of using a strapping and binding device for reducing cigarette stack collapse inside a carriage:
[0040] The cigarette stacks are arranged in the storage space 101, and then the sliding plate assembly 400 is slidably inserted into the second T-shaped groove 302 through the insertion hole 305, with the side with the fixing ring 403 facing the inside of the storage space 101. Multiple sliding plate assemblies 400 can be slidably inserted.
[0041] Then, the two second guide rails 300 are inserted into the left and right sides of the storage space 101 respectively. The upper and lower T-shaped parts 303 of the left second guide rail 300 are inserted into the first T-shaped grooves 202 of the two first guide rails 200 on the left side respectively, and the upper and lower T-shaped parts 303 of the right second guide rail 300 are inserted into the first T-shaped grooves 202 of the two first guide rails 200 on the right side respectively. The front and back positions of the second guide rails 300 are slidably adjusted according to the size of the cigarette stack to achieve quick adjustment.
[0042] After adjusting the position, tighten the first bolt 304. One end of the first bolt 304 abuts against the locking groove 204 to restrict the sliding of the vertical guide rail 301 and fix the vertical guide rail 301. Then, adjust the height of the sliding plate assembly 400 according to the height of the cigarette stack. Multiple sliding plate assemblies 400 can be set. A set of sliding plate assemblies 400 can be set at the middle position of the cigarette stack height, and then the binding strap assembly 500 can be hung. Another set of sliding plate assemblies 400 can be set at the top position, and the binding strap assembly 500 can be hung to prevent the stack from collapsing. Alternatively, the sliding plate assemblies 400 can be set more densely. Multiple sliding plate assemblies 400 and multiple binding strap assemblies 500 can form a dense structure to prevent the stack from collapsing and improve the effect of binding straps to prevent the stack from collapsing.
[0043] Due to the elastic rope 504, the strap assembly 500 can stretch and contract within a certain range, buffering the impact force of the vehicle during starting, sudden braking and bumps, and preventing the cigarette box from being squeezed and deformed.
[0044] After setting up the sliding plate assembly 400, the second bolt 404 is tightened. The second bolt 404 passes through the slide plate 401 and abuts against the insertion hole 305, restricting the up and down sliding of the sliding plate assembly 400 and fixing the sliding plate assembly 400.
[0045] Then, the two ends of the strap assembly 500 are hung on the sliding plate assembly 400. Specifically, the hooks 502 at both ends of the strap rope 501 are hooked onto the two fixing rings 403 on the left and right to form a strap binding structure. This binding is not the traditional method of wrapping the entire cigarette stack with rope multiple times to completely bind it. Instead, a barrier structure is set on one side of the cigarette stack, which, together with the side wall of the storage space of the carriage, restrains the cigarette stack and prevents the cigarette stack from sliding or collapsing.
