Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of warehouse racking technology, specifically, it relates to a warehouse racking system. Background Technology

[0002] As the core carrier of modern warehousing systems, warehouse racking has expanded its application scenarios from traditional industrial warehouses to diversified scenarios such as e-commerce cloud warehouses, fresh food cold chain, and smart logistics parks, becoming a key infrastructure supporting efficient collaboration between "people, goods, and place".

[0003] However, traditional warehouse racking has significant limitations in structural design, functional integration, and safety assurance. Specifically, the height adjustment deficiency manifests in the fact that most racks use fixed heights or complex adjustment structures, and the uprights lack a matching mechanism of positioning holes and threaded posts, making it difficult to adjust the base height. This requires disassembly and reassembly or the use of specialized tools, which not only affects installation efficiency and usage flexibility but also fails to achieve the dual guarantee of "flexible adjustment and stable fixation." When dealing with multi-sized goods, it can easily lead to wasted space or unstable storage problems. The functional integration deficiency is reflected in the simple design of the pallets, lacking the combination optimization of weight-reducing grooves and pulleys, resulting in excessive weight, high frictional resistance when picking up and placing goods, and reduced operational efficiency. At the same time, the lack of a weighing system with pressure sensors and displays requires additional independent equipment, increasing operating steps and costs. The lack of sliding cooperation between rollers and movable grooves further makes it difficult to pull out / push in the pallets, affecting dynamic adjustment capabilities and making it difficult to meet the needs of high-frequency, high-precision warehousing operations.

[0004] Based on this, the present invention proposes a storage rack to solve the problems existing in the prior art. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, the main purpose of this utility model is to provide a storage rack to solve the problems of existing fixed racks, such as the inability to effectively adjust the height according to usage needs, obvious functional integration defects, poor dynamic adjustment capabilities, and difficulty in meeting the needs of high-frequency and high-precision warehousing operations.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows:

[0007] A storage rack includes a rack body, which is a frame structure, and several layers of storage panels are installed on the rack body via sliding bases. The bases are detachably installed on both sides of the inner side of the rack body, and self-locking casters are also provided at the bottom of the rack body.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, a plurality of threaded posts are provided on the outer side of the base inside the shelf body. The threaded posts are connected to the positioning holes preset on the uprights, and positioning nuts are also threaded onto the threaded posts.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the positioning holes are provided at intervals along the height direction of the column.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the upper side of the base is further provided with a movable groove, in which a bearing steel plate is installed via a pressure sensor, and the bearing steel plate is matched with a roller disposed on the lower side of the loading plate.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the depth of the movable groove is greater than the radius of the roller.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the loading platform is movably mounted on the upper side of the base, and a weight-reducing groove and pulleys are provided on the loading platform. The weight-reducing groove and pulleys are evenly distributed on the upper surface of the loading platform and are arranged alternately.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the four corners of the cargo plate are further threaded with support members, which are threadedly connected to the screw grooves on the cargo plate.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment, the support includes a top plate, a threaded rod, and a hexagonal nut. The top plate is located at the upper end of the threaded rod, the threaded rod is threadedly connected to a threaded groove, and the hexagonal nut is located at the lower end of the threaded rod.

[0015] In a preferred embodiment, the front side of the loading plate is further provided with a groove, which forms a standard interface with external instruments.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment, steel plate blocks are symmetrically arranged on the front side of the storage plate. The blocks are rotatably mounted on the storage plate via hinges and are engaged and fixed with the front uprights of the shelf body.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a warehouse guidance device, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. This shelving unit achieves precise adjustment of installation height by using multiple positioning holes on the uprights to engage with the threaded posts on the base, thus adapting to different sizes of goods or storage needs.

[0019] 2. The support components at the four corners of the storage platform adopt a modular design of top plate, threaded rod and hexagonal nut. The height of the top plate can be quickly adjusted by mechanically rotating the hexagonal nut, which supports the goods when storing plate-shaped goods, making it easier for the forklift forks to retract. At the same time, the locking function of the steel plate block and the column can ensure the stability of the storage platform in the non-adjustable state, forming a dual guarantee mechanism of "flexible adjustment and stable fixation", which improves the adaptability of warehousing operations.

[0020] 3. The weight is reduced by the weight-reducing groove on the upper side of the loading plate, and the pulleys reduce friction when picking up and placing goods, thus improving operational efficiency.

[0021] 4. By using the sliding cooperation between the lower roller and the movable groove, combined with the design of connecting external equipment through the front pull groove, the loading plate can be smoothly pulled out and pushed in, thus optimizing the goods storage and retrieval process.

[0022] 5. By combining a pressure sensor with a display, the weight of the goods can be fed back in real time to meet weighing requirements.

[0023] 6. Self-locking casters support the overall movement and positioning of the shelving, enhancing the convenience of layout adjustments. Through the coordinated action of various components, both structural strength and operational efficiency are ensured, meeting the needs of high-frequency, high-precision warehousing scenarios. At the same time, mechanical adjustment reduces the intensity of manual operation, improving overall safety and reliability. Attached Figure Description

[0038] As per the instruction manual Figures 1-6 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution:

[0039] A storage rack includes a rack body 1, which is a frame structure, and several layers of shelf 3 are installed on the rack body 1. The shelf 3 is installed on the inside of the rack body 1 via sliding bases 2 for supporting and storing goods. The bases 2 are detachably installed on both sides of the inside of the rack body 1 to adjust the installation height and spacing of the shelf 3 according to usage requirements to meet the storage needs of goods.

[0040] In this embodiment, a self-locking caster wheel 4 is also provided at the bottom of the rack body 1. When moving, the caster wheel 4 can be unlocked to easily adjust the rack position, meeting the dynamic adjustment needs of the storage layout; when locked, the caster wheel 4 forms a stable support, ensuring the stability of the rack during storage operations. This design combines the adjustable characteristics of the sliding base 2 with the self-locking function of the caster wheel 4, achieving a balanced optimization between flexibility and stability of the storage rack, and can adapt to the dual needs of modern warehousing for efficient storage and dynamic adjustment.

[0041] In a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the base 2 on the inner side of the shelf body 1 is provided with several threaded posts 23. The threaded posts 23 and the positioning holes 12 on the uprights 11 form a mating structure. During installation, the threaded posts 23 are passed through the corresponding positioning holes 12 and tightened by positioning nuts 22 to achieve a detachable connection between the base 2 and the shelf body 1, ensuring the stability of the storage plate 3 after installation and the accuracy of height adjustment.

[0042] In this embodiment, the modular cooperation between the threaded post 23 and the positioning hole 12 enables the base 2 to be quickly disassembled and repositioned inside the rack body 1. Combined with the locking function of the positioning nut 22, it can flexibly adapt to the storage needs of goods of different sizes, and optimize space utilization by adjusting the spacing of the base 2, thus meeting the dual requirements of dynamic adjustment and efficient operation in the warehousing scenario and improving the overall flexibility and reliability of the rack.

[0043] Specifically, several positioning holes 12 are spaced apart along the height direction of the column 11. These positioning holes 12 form a precise mating structure with the threaded posts 23 on the outer side of the base 2. In use, the threaded posts 23 can be inserted into positioning holes 12 at different heights according to the size of the goods or storage requirements, and then tightened by positioning nuts 22 to achieve flexible adjustment of the installation height of the base 2, meeting the dynamic adaptation requirements of the spacing of the loading plates 3 for diverse goods storage scenarios.

[0044] Specifically, a movable groove 21 is provided on the upper side of the base 2, and a bearing steel plate 24 is installed on the movable groove 21 to cooperate with the rollers 33 set on the lower side of the loading plate 3. The bearing steel plate 24 is used to support the rollers 33. A pressure sensor 25 is provided on the lower side of the bearing steel plate 24. The pressure sensor 25 is connected to the display 5 through a wire. It is used to weigh the goods on the upper side of the loading plate 3 during use and display the weight on the display 5.

[0045] In this embodiment, during use, the weight of the goods placed on the shelf 3 is transferred to the bearing plate 24 via the rollers 33. The weight data is collected in real time by the pressure sensor 25 and transmitted to the display 5 for digital display via wires. This design not only achieves accurate measurement and visual feedback of the weight of the goods, but also optimizes the sliding adjustment performance of the shelf 3 through the cooperation of the movable groove 21 and the rollers 33, meeting the dual needs of rapid weighing and dynamic adjustment in warehousing operations, and improving the functional integration and operational convenience of the rack.

[0046] It should be noted that the pressure sensor 25 and the display 5 are both existing technologies, and their specific pressure detection and display principles will not be elaborated here.

[0047] More specifically, the depth of the movable groove 21 is greater than the radius of the roller 33, so that the weight of the goods on the upper side of the loading plate 3 can always be pressed on the pressure sensor 25 through the bearing steel plate 24.

[0048] In a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the storage plate 3 is movably mounted on the upper side of the movable slot 21, and a weight-reducing slot 31 and pulleys 32 are provided on the storage plate 3. The weight-reducing slot 31 and pulleys 32 are evenly distributed on the upper surface of the storage plate 3 and are arranged alternately. In use, the weight-reducing slot 31 effectively reduces the weight of the storage plate 3 through its hollow structure, reducing the overall load on the shelf. At the same time, the pulleys 32 reduce the frictional resistance with the surface of the storage plate 3 by using rolling friction instead of sliding friction when loading and unloading goods, thus improving the smoothness of operation.

[0049] In this embodiment, the synergistic effect of the weight-reducing grooves 31 and the pulleys 32 optimizes the lightweight characteristics of the shelf structure and improves the efficiency and safety of goods storage and retrieval. The reasonable distribution of the weight-reducing grooves 31 ensures that the storage plate 3 maintains sufficient strength while being lightweight, while the uniform arrangement of the pulleys 32 makes the movement of goods smoother, reduces surface wear, and effectively protects the goods, meeting the diversified needs of efficient, safe, and low-loss warehousing operations.

[0050] Specifically, support members 35 are threadedly connected to the four corners of the cargo platform 3. The support members 35 are threadedly connected to the threaded grooves 34 at the four corners of the cargo platform 3, forming an adjustable support structure. This design allows the extension height of the support members 35 to be adjusted by rotating them according to the size of the plate-shaped goods or storage requirements, providing stable bottom support for the goods.

[0051] In this embodiment, when storing palletized goods, the support 35 is adjusted to raise the goods to an appropriate height, allowing the forklift forks to smoothly retract after the goods are handled, avoiding fork jamming caused by the goods sticking to the surface of the pallet 3. This function not only improves the efficiency of goods storage and retrieval and reduces the difficulty of forklift operation, but also enhances the safety and smoothness of warehousing operations by reducing equipment wear and operating time, meeting the needs of modern warehousing for efficient and precise operations.

[0052] More specifically, the support member 35 includes a top plate 351, a threaded rod 352, and a hexagonal nut 353. The top plate 351 is located at the upper end of the threaded rod 352 and is used to directly contact the surface of the goods to provide a stable top function. The threaded rod 352 is threadedly connected to the threaded groove 34 to form an adjustable support structure. The hexagonal nut 353 is located at the lower end of the threaded rod 352 and serves as the interface end for mechanical adjustment.

[0053] In this embodiment, during use, the hexagonal nut 353 is rotated using an external mechanical tool (such as a wrench), driving the threaded rod 352 to rotate within the threaded groove 34, thereby achieving precise adjustment of the height of the top plate 351. This mechanical adjustment method not only ensures the stable support of the support member 35 when storing plate-shaped goods, but also improves the convenience and repeatability of operation through the standardized interface of the hexagonal nut 353, effectively adapting to the operational needs of equipment such as forklifts, avoiding the problem of fork sticking to the surface of the pallet 3 caused by goods, and enhancing the smoothness and safety of warehousing operations.

[0054] Specifically, a pull groove 36 is provided on the front side of the storage plate 3. The pull groove 36 forms a standard interface with external equipment (such as a forklift tow hook or a manual push-pull device). In use, by connecting the external equipment through the pull groove 36, the storage plate 3 can be smoothly pulled forward, which facilitates quick storage and retrieval of goods or adjustment of the internal layout of the rack, thereby improving the flexibility and efficiency of warehousing operations.

[0055] Specifically, steel plate blocks 37 are symmetrically arranged on the front side of the storage plate 3. The blocks 37 are rotatably mounted on the storage plate 3 via hinges and are used in conjunction with the front uprights 11 of the rack body 1. When in use, the steel plate blocks 37 can be rotated around the hinges to adjust the angle, so that their inner side is tightly engaged with the inner side of the uprights 11. The lateral displacement of the storage plate 3 is restricted by mechanical locking, ensuring the stability of the goods during storage operations.

[0056] In this embodiment, in the non-adjustable state, the engaging force between the steel plate block 37 and the upright 11 constitutes a dual insurance mechanism: it prevents the pallet 3 from accidentally sliding due to external impact, and it also avoids the rack structure from loosening due to vibrations generated during forklift operation or cargo handling. This design, through the combination of the flexible rotation characteristics of the hinge and the rigid support of the block 37, achieves precise positioning of the pallet 3 in both dynamic operation and static storage scenarios, meeting the dual requirements of warehouse safety regulations and efficient operation, and improving the overall reliability of the rack.

[0057] The usage process of the storage rack described in this utility model includes:

[0058] In use, the rack can be moved flexibly to the target position and locked by unlocking the casters 4. The height of the base 2 can be adjusted according to the size of the goods: loosen the positioning nut 22, move the threaded post 23 to the appropriate positioning hole 12, and then tighten it again. When storing pallet-shaped goods, adjust the height of the support 35 to support the goods, facilitating the retraction of the forklift forks; the pallet 3 can be smoothly pulled out by connecting external equipment via the pull groove 36. After the goods are placed, the pressure sensor 25 weighs them in real time and displays the weight on the display 5. The weight-reducing groove 31 on the surface of the pallet 3 reduces its own weight, and the pulleys 32 reduce friction on the goods, improving retrieval and placement efficiency. In the non-adjustable state, the steel plate block 37 rotates to engage with the inner side of the column 11, mechanically locking the pallet 3 to prevent accidental movement and ensure storage safety. The entire process balances flexible adjustment and stable storage, adapting to the needs of high-frequency warehousing operations.

[0059] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present utility model.
