Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an auxiliary device for metal ingot testing, specifically a metal ingot transfer platform. Background Technology

[0002] Metal ingots are typically traded in bulk, with large quantities and concentrated weight. During the delivery process, random inspections are required, and the inspected metal ingots need to be retained for further testing. Due to their large weight, they are usually transferred using common pallet trucks. However, because the surface of metal ingots is relatively smooth and has sloping edges, they are prone to tipping over when moved if stacked directly, posing a certain danger. Therefore, a platform structure that is easy to move is needed to stably place metal ingots. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the above-mentioned deficiencies in the prior art and to provide a metal ingot transfer platform.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the above problems is as follows: The transfer platform includes a platform frame, a support frame, and casters. The platform frame forms a rectangular frame structure and is erected vertically. The upper part of the platform frame is a supporting platform surface, and the support frame is fixedly installed on the supporting platform surface. The support frame has a positioning groove for embedding and placing metal ingots. Casters are provided at the bottom of the platform frame. The casters support the platform frame upwards from the ground, forming a spatial height. The transfer platform has a stable platform frame structure, a certain support height, and is easy to use. It has its own independent movable device, which can be moved within a small range, facilitating work. The main placement and support positions are all at the top, which is intuitive and efficient. Furthermore, the structure itself is strong and reliable, and can be used as a pallet. When moving long distances, it can be transferred with equipment such as hydraulic forklifts, resulting in high work efficiency.

[0005] Furthermore, the platform frame includes an upper frame and a lower frame. Both the upper and lower frames are rectangular frame structures formed by interlocking and welding square tubes. The upper and lower frames are fixedly connected at a height distance by upright columns. A supporting platform surface is set within the space enclosed by the upper frame. A horizontally fixed central support body is set in the supporting platform surface, and a support frame is fixedly set upward with the upper surface of the central support body as the reference surface. Both the upper and lower frames are rigid structures, and the upper and lower frames are supported at a height by upright columns. The overall structure uses square tubes for interlocking and welding, resulting in good structural strength and improved work safety.

[0006] Furthermore, the support frame includes multiple support plates, which are vertically arranged and fixedly installed along the sides of the central support body and the parallel upper frame. Each support plate has multiple slots corresponding to the cross-section of the metal ingot. The slots of all support plates are collinear and form multiple parallel positioning slots. The slots formed on the support plates, forming multiple sets of positioning slots, allow for sequential placement and facilitate organization.

[0007] Furthermore, the spacing between the support plates is less than the length of the shortest metal ingot, and at least two adjacent support plates support one metal ingot. End fixing plates are welded to the ends of the support plates, and these end fixing plates simultaneously weld to the end edges of all the support plates. Since the support plates are vertically installed, their individual fixing strength is not high. By welding the end fixing plates, a stable support structure is formed, and the metal ingot is supported by at least two support plates, effectively ensuring safety.

[0008] Furthermore, the upper frame is equipped with outer baffles along its edges. These outer baffles are fixedly installed on both sides of the end where the metal ingot is placed. The outer baffles are formed in an "L" shape, with their bottom fixed to the edge of the upper frame and their upper part extending upwards to form a blocking height higher than the support height. Reinforcing ribs are welded to the connection between the outer baffles and the upper frame. The function of the outer baffles is to block the outer space, preventing accidental slippage from the edge and effectively improving safety.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages and effects: This design is a convenient placement device for metal ingots, suitable for small-batch movement within a small range, convenient for work, easy for management and recording, suitable for rapid sampling inspection, and improves work efficiency.

[0013] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through embodiments. The following embodiments are explanations of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.

[0014] A metal ingot transfer platform includes a platform frame 1, a support frame 2, and casters 3. The platform frame 1 forms a rectangular frame structure and is erected and supported. The upper part of the platform frame 1 is configured as a support platform surface. The support frame 2 is fixedly installed on the support platform surface. The support frame 2 has a positioning groove 4 formed on it for embedding and placing metal ingots. The bottom of the platform frame 1 is provided with casters 3. The casters 3 support the platform frame 1 upwards based on the ground and form a spatial height.

[0015] The platform frame 1 includes an upper frame 5 and a lower frame 6. The upper frame 5 and the lower frame 6 are both formed by interlocking and welding square tubes to form a rectangular frame structure. The upper frame 5 and the lower frame 6 are fixedly connected by upright columns 7 to maintain a fixed height distance. A support platform surface is set in the space enclosed by the upper frame 5. A horizontally fixed central support body is set in the support platform surface. A support frame 2 is fixedly set upward with the upper surface of the central support body as the reference surface.

Each support plate has multiple slots 8 that are opposite to the cross-section of the metal ingot. All the slots 8 of the support plates are collinear and form multiple parallel positioning slots 4.

[0017] The spacing between the support plates is less than the length of the shortest metal ingot. At least two adjacent support plates support one metal ingot. The ends of the support plates are welded and fixed with end fixing plates 9, and the end fixing plates 9 are also welded and fixed to the end edges of all support plates.
