Magnetic tray for material positioning on production line

Abstract

This utility model provides a magnetic positioning bracket for production line materials, belonging to the field of positioning bracket technology. It includes a positioning bracket with horizontal grooves on its sides. One end of each horizontal groove has a vertical groove, and a central vertical groove is formed in the middle of the horizontal groove. The inner wall of the horizontal groove is slidably connected to the side of a T-shaped component. Multiple rectangular magnets are linearly arrayed and fixed in the middle of the side of the positioning bracket. This utility model, by creating the vertical grooves, central vertical groove, and horizontal grooves, allows workers to slide the T-shaped component outwards and fix it to the positioning bracket when assembly is required. The T-shaped component can then slide into the central vertical groove of another positioning bracket, where a tight fit is achieved through the rectangular magnets. When assembly is not needed, the T-shaped component can be flipped and slid into the vertical groove, preventing it from protruding from the positioning bracket surface and thus preventing injuries to workers' ankles and the surface of transport vehicles. This improves production safety by preventing personnel injury and equipment damage.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of positioning bracket technology, and in particular to a magnetic bracket for positioning materials on a production line. Background Technology

[0002] Material racks are auxiliary tools used to support, secure, and transport materials. They are widely used in logistics, warehousing, transportation, and production. These flat structures support goods and are used with forklifts, pallet trucks, and other equipment to locate, transfer, stack, or store goods. Their core functions are to locate and protect materials, improve handling efficiency, and reduce labor costs.

[0003] A search revealed that utility model patent CN219277671U discloses an AGV positioning bracket. It includes a concave plate on the top side for receiving materials, with a notch for the AGV to enter. Connecting grooves and connecting strips that engage with the grooves are respectively provided on the concave plates on both sides of the notch, allowing several concave plates to be connected sequentially. Depending on the application site and requirements, the upper concave plates of several positioning brackets can be assembled together to form a more stable whole. When the telescopic component on the bottom side of the concave plate extends, the entire positioning bracket can move flexibly, facilitating assembly and transportation. When the telescopic component retracts, the stable support feet contact the bottom surface, allowing the positioning bracket to be stably placed on the ground. The positioning bracket is flexible, easy to adjust, and convenient to move and transport. It can be reused in different working environments, making it practical and reliable.

[0004] In the aforementioned structure, the two concave plates are stably connected by interlocking the connecting groove and the connecting strip. However, this connection method results in the connecting strip always being much higher than the surface of the concave plates. When workers are working nearby or the transport vehicle is operating nearby, the connecting strip is low and protruding, making it difficult to notice without careful observation. This can easily scratch the workers' ankles and the surface of the transport vehicle, causing injuries to personnel and damage to equipment. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a magnetic material positioning bracket for production lines.

[0011] Preferably, multiple arc grooves are linearly arrayed on both sides of the inner wall of the L-shaped groove, and multiple spring sheets are fixed on the side of the L-shaped part, with the surface of the spring sheets nested with the inner wall of the arc groove.

[0012] Preferably, a handle groove is provided at the top of one side of the L-shaped part, and the inner wall of the handle groove is L-shaped.

[0013] Preferably, the L-shaped part has a rope groove at the top, and the two ends of the inner wall of the rope groove are circular.

[0014] Beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. This utility model achieves the following by opening end vertical grooves, middle vertical grooves, and horizontal grooves: when assembling a positioning bracket, workers can slide the T-shaped piece outwards and fix it to the positioning bracket with fasteners, and slide the T-shaped piece into the middle vertical groove of another positioning bracket. At the same time, a rectangular magnet ensures a tight fit. When workers do not need to assemble, the T-shaped piece can be flipped and slid into the end vertical groove, so that the T-shaped piece does not protrude from the surface of the positioning bracket, thereby preventing the T-shaped piece from scratching workers' ankles and the surface of the transport vehicle, achieving the effect of preventing personnel injury and equipment damage, and improving production safety.

[0016] 2. This utility model achieves the following: when the T-shaped part is fixed to the positioning bracket, the fixing part will not be higher than the surface of the positioning bracket through the side recessed groove. At the same time, the round recessed groove ensures that the bolt is not higher than the surface of the fixing part. In this way, abnormal wear or collision caused by the fixing part or bolt being higher than the surface is prevented, thereby further preventing scratches to staff or transport vehicles, achieving the effect of improving user experience and increasing the service life of transport vehicles.

[0017] 3. This utility model achieves the goal of fixing the L-shaped part in the positioning bracket by nesting the spring sheet and the arc groove. At the same time, the operator can change the orientation of the L-shaped part. The operator can use the conical end and the inclined surface of the L-shaped part to insert the L-shaped part into the rectangular magnet, so that the two positioning brackets are separated. The operator can also use the L-shaped part and the rope groove to tie the product on the top of the positioning bracket with rope, cable tie, etc., so as to facilitate operation and improve the user experience.

[0033] To make the technical means, creative features, and achieved objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model is further described below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings. However, the following embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and not all of them. Other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments described in the implementation plan without creative effort are all within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0034] The specific embodiments of this utility model are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Specific Implementation Example 1:

[0036] Reference Figures 1-5 The production line material positioning magnetic bracket includes a positioning bracket 1. Each side of the positioning bracket 1 has a horizontal groove 201. One end of the inner wall of the horizontal groove 201 has an end vertical groove 202, and the middle of the horizontal groove 201 has a central vertical groove 203. The inner wall of the horizontal groove 201 is slidably connected to the side of a T-shaped component 2. Multiple rectangular magnets 6 are linearly arrayed and fixed to the middle of the side of the positioning bracket 1. By opening the end vertical groove 202, the central vertical groove 203, and the horizontal groove 201, when the positioning bracket 1 needs to be assembled, the worker can slide the T-shaped component 2 outwards and fix it to the positioning bracket 1 with a fixing member 3, and slide the T-shaped component 2 into the central vertical groove 203 of another positioning bracket 1. Simultaneously, the rectangular magnets 6 achieve a tight fit. When the worker does not need to assemble, the T-shaped component 2 is flipped and slid into the end vertical groove 202, so that the T-shaped component 2 does not protrude from the surface of the positioning bracket 1, thereby preventing the T-shaped component 2 from scratching the worker's ankles and the surface of the transport vehicle.

[0037] A fixing member 3 is fixed to one side of the T-shaped part 2. The surface of the fixing member 3 has a threaded hole 301. The side of the positioning bracket 1 has a threaded hole 301 corresponding to the threaded hole 301. A round countersunk groove 5 is opened on one side of the fixing member 3 corresponding to the threaded hole 301. The inner wall of the round countersunk groove 5 is covered with a rubber layer. The side of the positioning bracket 1 has a side countersunk groove 4 and an auxiliary groove 401. The T-shaped part 2 is fixed to the threaded hole 301 by bolts, which facilitates the disassembly and adjustment of the direction of the T-shaped part 2 by the staff. The side countersunk groove 4 ensures that the fixing member 3 will not be higher than the surface of the positioning bracket 1 when the T-shaped part 2 is fixed to the positioning bracket 1. At the same time, the round countersunk groove 5 ensures that the bolt is not higher than the surface of the fixing member 3. In this way, abnormal wear or collision caused by the fixing member 3 or the bolt being higher than the surface is prevented, thereby further preventing scratches to the staff or the transport vehicle.

[0038] The positioning bracket 1 has a sloping surface 701 above the rectangular magnet 6 on its side top. The positioning bracket 1 has multiple L-shaped grooves 703 on its top. The inner wall of the L-shaped grooves 703 is provided with L-shaped parts 7. The bottom end of the L-shaped parts 7 is set as a conical end 702. The rectangular magnet 6 keeps the multiple positioning brackets 1 in good fit, preventing gaps between the positioning brackets 1 from causing the product to fall off and improving the yield rate.

[0039] Multiple arc grooves 801 are linearly arrayed on both sides of the inner wall of the L-shaped groove 703. Multiple spring pieces 8 are fixed on the side of the L-shaped part 7. The surface of the spring pieces 8 is nested with the inner wall of the arc groove 801. A rope groove 901 is opened on the top of the L-shaped part 7. The two ends of the inner wall of the rope groove 901 are round. The spring pieces 8 are nested with the arc groove 801 to fix the L-shaped part 7, so that the L-shaped part 7 can be held in the positioning bracket 1. At the same time, the operator can change the orientation of the L-shaped part 7. The operator can use the conical end 702 and the inclined surface 701 of the L-shaped part 7 to insert the L-shaped part 7 into the rectangular magnet 6, so that the two positioning brackets 1 are separated. The operator can also use the L-shaped part 7 and the rope groove 901 to tie the product on the top of the positioning bracket 1 with ropes, cable ties, etc.

[0040] The top of one side of the L-shaped part 7 has a handle groove 9. The inner wall of the handle groove 9 is L-shaped. The handle groove 9 makes it easy for the operator to pull the L-shaped part 7 upward, and makes it easier to exert force to make the L-shaped part 7 overcome the force of the nesting between the spring plate 8 and the arc groove 801. This makes it easier for the operator to change the position of the L-shaped part 7, thereby improving the user experience. Specific Implementation Example 2:

[0042] Reference Figures 1-5 Workers used the structure disclosed in this utility model in a new energy vehicle battery pack assembly workshop. In July 2025, the workshop experienced three tire damage accidents caused by the protruding parts of the traditional pallet assembly. The production line then started using this device.

[0043] The positioning bracket 1 is made of 6061-T6 aluminum alloy (1200mm×800mm×50mm), with a horizontal groove 201 depth of 25mm and an 80mm distance between the end vertical groove 202 and the middle vertical groove 203. During assembly, the worker slides the T-shaped piece 2 out from the end vertical groove 202 and moves it horizontally along the horizontal groove 201 to the exposed position. M8 stainless steel bolts (strength grade 8.8) are then used to lock the side recess 4 of the positioning bracket 1 through the threaded hole 301 of the fixing piece 3. Subsequently, the exposed T-head is inserted into the middle vertical groove 203 of the adjacent bracket, and N35 neodymium iron boron rectangular magnets 6 (30mm×15mm×10mm, single magnet attraction ≥180N) ensure the gap between the two brackets is ≤0.5mm. When the assembled unit supports a 1.2-ton battery pack, the displacement at the connection of the 12 sets of T-shaped pieces 2 is <0.1mm. During disassembly, the worker pulls the L-shaped part 7 (made of 304 stainless steel) 20mm out of the L-shaped groove 703, and the spring plate 8 (65Mn steel, 0.8mm thick) is disengaged from the arc groove 801; the L-shaped part 7 is rotated so that the conical end 702 is inserted into the inclined surface 701 between the brackets, and the magnet is separated by leverage (the actual separation force is 50N). At the same time, the rope groove 901 (R angle R5) is inserted into the polyester strap to fix the battery pack.

[0044] During non-operational periods, after T-shaped part 2 is retracted into the vertical groove 202, its protrusion height returns to zero. The fluororubber layer inside the circular sink 5 contacts the bolt head, and the flatness error of the outer surface of the bracket is verified to be ±0.2mm using a laser rangefinder. After three months of continuous operation, the wear rate of the transport trolley decreased by 76%, and no further scratches occurred.

[0045] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When the staff needs to assemble and use multiple positioning brackets 1, the T-shaped part 2 of one positioning bracket 1 is slid out from the horizontal groove 201 and the end vertical groove 202, and then rotated clockwise to slide the T-shaped part 2 back into the horizontal groove 201. Then it is fixed by the fixing part 3 and the corresponding threaded hole 301 bolt, and the T-shaped part 2 is slid into the middle vertical groove 203 of another positioning bracket 1 so that the two are assembled. At the same time, the rectangular magnet 6 achieves tight fit. The side recessed groove 4 ensures that when the T-shaped part 2 is fixed with the positioning bracket 1, the fixing part 3 will not be higher than the surface of the positioning bracket 1. At the same time, the round recessed groove 5 ensures that the bolt is not higher than the surface of the fixing part 3. In this way, abnormal wear or collision caused by the fixing part 3 or the bolt being higher than the surface is prevented.

[0046] When the staff needs to cancel the assembly between multiple positioning brackets 1, the bolts are removed to separate the multiple T-shaped pieces 2 from the positioning brackets 1. The T-shaped pieces 2 are slid out of the horizontal groove 201 of one positioning bracket 1 and the vertical groove 203 of another positioning bracket 1, so that the other positioning bracket 1 loses the clamping of the T-shaped pieces 2 at both ends, thereby canceling the assembly fixation. Then, the staff pulls the L-shaped piece 7 upward by the handle groove 9, so that the spring piece 8 is released from the arc groove 801. The staff aligns the conical end 702 at the bottom of the spring piece 8 with the inclined surface 701 and inserts it so that the rectangular magnets 6 are gradually separated by the L-shaped piece 7, weakening the magnetic force between the rectangular magnets 6, and causing the positioning brackets 1 to separate.

[0047] When the staff needs to store the T-shaped part 2 of the positioning bracket 1, they slide the T-shaped part 2 into the end vertical groove 202 and horizontal groove 201 of the positioning bracket 1, so that the inner wall of the T-shaped part 2 is completely stored in the inner wall of the positioning bracket 1, preventing the T-shaped part 2 from being higher than the surface of the positioning bracket 1 when it is not in use, which could cause scratches to personnel or equipment.

[0048] When using the positioning bracket 1 to transport products, the staff can rotate the L-shaped part 7 to face outwards, so that the rope groove 901 of the L-shaped part 7 is slightly higher than the surface of the positioning bracket 1. This allows the staff to use ropes, cable ties, etc. to tie the products on the top of the positioning bracket 1, making it easier to change the direction of the rope. At the same time, the inner walls of the rope groove 901 are rounded at both ends, which can better prevent the straps from wearing out and improve the service life.

Furthermore, "above," "over," and "on top" of the second feature includes the first feature directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature.
