Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a trolley. Background Technology

[0002] Trolleys are a common mobile loading tool, widely used in supermarket shopping, home kitchen food transport, hotel room food delivery services, and other scenarios.

[0003] Existing trolleys typically use metal as their main structure, with the entire frame molded as a single piece. While this provides good load-bearing capacity and stability, it also has many shortcomings.

[0004] First, traditional trolleys, due to their integrated structure, are relatively large in size, making them inconvenient for transportation and storage. Especially during the product shipping process, their bulky packaging occupies logistical resources and increases transportation costs. Furthermore, when not in use by home or commercial users, they take up considerable space and lack flexibility. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a trolley that effectively saves packaging volume and facilitates quick assembly or disassembly by users in actual use scenarios.

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is achieved as follows:

[0007] A trolley includes a first frame, a second frame, a caster assembly, a shelf, and a storage box, wherein the first frame and the second frame are connected to form a support frame;

[0008] The support frame is provided with a top mounting area, a middle mounting area and a bottom mounting area;

[0009] The shelf is located in the top mounting area, and the storage box is located in the middle mounting area and / or the bottom mounting area.

[0010] The caster assembly is located at the bottom of the support frame.

[0011] The first frame, second frame, caster assembly, shelf, and storage box are packaged separately at the factory, significantly reducing the overall volume and effectively lowering logistics and transportation costs and storage space requirements. Users only need to assemble the first and second frames into a support frame, install the casters, shelf, and storage box according to the instructions to quickly complete the trolley assembly. The operation is simple and easy.

[0012] With the rational layout of the top, middle and bottom installation areas, users can flexibly configure the position and number of storage boxes according to actual usage scenarios, thereby meeting the needs of different items in terms of load capacity, height or number of layers; at the same time, the storage boxes are modular components that can be replaced individually, improving the convenience of maintenance and extending the product's service life.

[0013] The objective of this utility model can also be achieved by the following technical measures:

[0014] Furthermore, the first frame is provided with a first connector, and the second frame is provided with a second connector. The first connector and the second connector are connected to realize the connection between the first frame and the second frame.

[0015] Furthermore, the first frame includes a first upper U-shaped tube, a first connector, and a first lower U-shaped tube. The upper end of the first connector is provided with a first upper insertion port, and the lower end of the first connector is provided with a first lower insertion port. The end of the first upper U-shaped tube is inserted into the first upper insertion port of the first connector, and the end of the first lower U-shaped tube is inserted into the first lower insertion port of the first connector, thereby connecting the first upper U-shaped tube, the first connector, and the first lower U-shaped tube.

[0016] The second frame includes a second upper U-shaped tube, a second connector, and a second lower U-shaped tube. The upper end of the second connector is provided with a second upper insertion port, and the lower end of the second connector is provided with a second lower insertion port. The end of the second upper U-shaped tube is inserted into the second upper insertion port of the second connector, and the end of the second lower U-shaped tube is inserted into the second lower insertion port of the second connector, thereby realizing the connection between the second upper U-shaped tube, the second connector, and the second lower U-shaped tube.

[0017] The first connector and the second connector are connected to achieve the connection between the first frame and the second frame.

[0018] The first frame is divided into three modules: "first upper U-shaped tube, first connector, and first lower U-shaped tube". The second frame is divided into three modules: "second upper U-shaped tube, second connector, and second lower U-shaped tube". This allows the first upper U-shaped tube, first lower U-shaped tube, second upper U-shaped tube, and second lower U-shaped tube to be stacked, maximizing the use of the gap space, significantly reducing the overall packaging volume, and reducing transportation and storage costs.

[0019] Furthermore, the operation of assembling the first upper U-shaped tube, the first connector, and the first lower U-shaped tube into the first frame is simple, the operation of assembling the second upper U-shaped tube, the second connector, and the second lower U-shaped tube into the second frame is simple, and the connection operation between the first frame and the second frame is simple, allowing users to easily assemble the support frame.

[0020] Furthermore, a first connecting rod for connecting the caster assembly is provided at the bottom of the first frame near its front end, and a second connecting rod for connecting the caster assembly is provided at the bottom of the first frame near its rear end.

[0021] The bottom of the second frame is provided near its front end with a first connecting rod for connecting the caster assembly, and the bottom of the second frame is provided near its rear end with a second connecting rod for connecting the caster assembly.

[0022] Furthermore, the caster assembly includes a swivel wheel and a tire, the swivel wheel being connected to a first connecting rod and the tire being connected to a second connecting rod.

[0023] The caster assembly uses a combination of swivel wheels and tires, balancing flexible steering with stable load-bearing performance. The swivel wheels allow for 360° free steering, adapting to complex path changes; the tires use elastic materials for shock absorption, ensuring smooth movement on various surfaces (such as tiles, carpets, and wooden floors), improving user comfort and safety.

[0024] Furthermore, the support frame is an X-shaped support frame.

[0025] The X-shaped support frame structure forms a cross support in the center of the frame, which greatly improves the torsional rigidity in both the lateral and longitudinal directions, making the trolley less prone to deformation or wobbling when carrying heavy loads.

[0026] Furthermore, the shelf includes a tabletop, a support frame, and a railing. The support frame is bolted to the top of the support frame, thus fixing the support frame to the top installation area of ​​the support frame.

[0027] The tabletop is bolted to the support frame, thus fixing the tabletop to the support frame;

[0028] The railing is bolted to the tabletop, and the railing and the tabletop together form a top storage area.

[0029] First, the support frame is bolted to the top of the support frame. Then, the railing is bolted to the platform. Finally, the platform is bolted to the support frame, making the connection between the top shelf and the support frame more secure. The overall rigidity and load-bearing capacity are significantly improved, and it is not easy to loosen or deform due to load or external force.

[0030] All connection points are secured with bolts, and with standardized bolts and pre-drilled holes, users only need to tighten them in the order specified in the instructions to complete the installation. The operation is simple.

[0031] Furthermore, it also includes a front handrail and a rear handrail, the front handrail being bolted to the tabletop, and the rear handrail being bolted to the tabletop, the front handrail, the railing, the rear handrail, and the tabletop forming the top storage area.

[0032] The addition of front and rear handrails not only provides better ergonomic support for users when pushing and pulling the trolley, but also, together with the railing, forms a top storage area, further reinforcing the restraint of items, preventing them from rolling forward or backward or tipping over, and improving the comfort and safety of operation.

[0033] Furthermore, the storage box is placed in the middle installation area of ​​the support frame, and the storage box is fixed in the middle installation area of ​​the support frame by bolting the corresponding first connecting piece.

[0034] The storage box is secured with bolts, ensuring a tight fit between the box and the support frame and preventing wobbling. The bolt-locking mechanism also allows for quick assembly and disassembly, and the box can be easily removed when not in use, saving space.

[0035] Furthermore, the bottom of the storage box is provided with a blocking rib, the storage box sits on the transverse section of the first lower U-shaped tube and the transverse section of the second lower U-shaped tube, and the blocking rib abuts against the corresponding transverse section of the first lower U-shaped tube and the transverse section of the second lower U-shaped tube respectively.

[0036] The front end of the storage box abuts against the vertical sections of the first and second lower U-shaped tubes, so that the support frame can be detachably mounted on the bottom installation area of ​​the support frame.

[0037] The blocking ribs at the bottom of the storage box fit snugly against the horizontal section of the lower U-shaped tube, and the front face is close to the vertical section of the lower U-shaped tube. This "four-sided surrounding" limiting design does not require additional fasteners and can ensure that the storage box is firmly locked in both the horizontal and vertical directions. Even when loading heavy items and making sharp turns in the cart, it can effectively prevent the box from coming loose.

[0038] By tightly fitting the blocking ribs with the transverse section of the lower U-shaped tube, the storage box remains stable and does not shake during the pushing and pulling process, preventing items from shifting or falling due to vibration or tilting, which significantly improves safety during transportation and user confidence.

[0039] This detachable locking structure relies solely on gravity and limiters for positioning, allowing for quick disassembly and installation without tools. When cleaning, repairing, or replacing the storage box, users can easily remove it by simply lifting the box, making maintenance intuitive and convenient.

[0040] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0041] This utility model separates and packages the first frame, second frame, caster assembly, storage platform, and storage box at the factory, significantly reducing the overall volume and effectively lowering logistics and transportation costs and storage space requirements. Users only need to assemble the first frame and second frame into a support frame, install the casters, storage platform, and storage box according to the instructions to quickly complete the trolley assembly, which is simple and easy to operate.

[0042] This utility model, with its reasonable layout of three installation areas—top, middle, and bottom—allows users to flexibly configure the position and quantity of storage boxes according to actual usage scenarios, thereby meeting the needs of different items in terms of load capacity, height, or number of layers. At the same time, the storage boxes, as modular components, can be replaced individually, improving the convenience of maintenance and extending the product's service life.

[0043] This invention divides the first frame into three modules: a first upper U-shaped tube, a first connector, and a first lower U-shaped tube, and the second frame into three modules: a second upper U-shaped tube, a second connector, and a second lower U-shaped tube. This allows the first upper U-shaped tube, the first lower U-shaped tube, the second upper U-shaped tube, and the second lower U-shaped tube to be stacked, maximizing the use of the gap space, significantly reducing the overall packaging volume, and reducing transportation and storage costs.

[0044] In this invention, the supporting frame is first locked to the top of the support frame with bolts, then the railing is locked to the tabletop with bolts, and finally the tabletop is locked to the supporting frame, making the combination of the shelf and the support frame more secure, significantly improving the overall rigidity and load-bearing capacity, and making it less prone to loosening or deformation due to load or external force.

[0045] In this invention, the storage box is locked with bolts, and the storage box and the support frame are tightly connected to prevent shaking. Moreover, the bolt locking makes disassembly and assembly quick, and the storage box can be quickly removed when not needed, saving space.

[0046] In this invention, the blocking ribs at the bottom of the storage box fit snugly against the horizontal section of the lower U-shaped tube, and the front end face is close to the vertical section of the lower U-shaped tube. This "four-sided encirclement" limiting design does not require additional fasteners and can ensure that the storage box is firmly locked in both the horizontal and vertical directions. Even when loading heavy items and making sharp turns in the cart, it can effectively prevent the box from loosening.

[0047] In this invention, the bottom storage box is positioned solely by gravity and a limiting mechanism, allowing for quick disassembly and installation without tools. When cleaning, repairing, or replacing the storage box, users can easily remove it by simply lifting the box, making maintenance intuitive and convenient. Attached Figure Description
