Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of power maintenance and emergency repair technology, specifically a vehicle-mounted insulating tool rack. Background Technology

[0002] Vehicle tool racks are frame-type storage devices made of metal. They can be fixed to the cargo box or top without drilling or with bolts. They are available in open, lockable, and expandable types, and can store tools in layers. They are compatible with various pickup truck models, and the steel version has a higher load-bearing capacity. Accessories can also be added to facilitate the transportation and storage of tools in construction, maintenance and other scenarios.

[0003] Currently, when operators use pickup trucks to transport vehicles and materials for power emergency repairs and maintenance, vehicle-mounted tool racks are commonly used equipment. Although the currently used vehicle-mounted tool racks have basic insulation properties, they have a key limitation: their size cannot be adjusted according to the specific specifications of the pickup truck chassis. This defect directly makes it difficult for the tool racks to be adapted to various vehicle models, greatly limiting their application range. Therefore, improvements are needed.

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to address the above problems. This utility model provides a vehicle-mounted insulating tool rack with the advantage of wide application range.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a vehicle-mounted insulating tool rack, comprising a pickup truck chassis, with two hollow blocks movably mounted on the top of the pickup truck chassis in both the front and rear directions. A first mounting bracket and a second mounting bracket are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the opposite faces of the two hollow blocks, with two first mounting brackets and two second mounting brackets. The back sides of the two first mounting brackets are movably connected to the front sides of the two second mounting brackets. Two moving rods are fixedly connected to the back sides of each of the two first mounting brackets, located inside the two second mounting brackets. The outer surfaces of the rods are movably connected to the interior of the two second slots. A housing is fixedly connected between the opposite faces of the two moving rods. Insert blocks are movably connected to the left and right sides of the inner surface of the housing. There are two insert blocks. The other ends of the two insert blocks pass through the housing and the two second slots in sequence and extend into the interior of the two moving rods and are movably connected to the interior of the two moving rods. A spring is fixedly connected between the opposite faces of the two insert blocks. A pull rod is fixedly connected to the back of the two insert blocks. The other end of the pull rod passes through the housing and extends to the outside of the back of the housing, and its outer surface is movably connected to the interior of the housing.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, pickup truck longitudinal beams are fixedly connected to both the front and rear sides of the bottom of the pickup truck chassis, and shims are fixedly connected to both the left and right sides of the top front and back sides of the two hollow blocks, and saddle bolts are fixed to the pickup truck chassis through the shims.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a connecting plate is fixedly installed on the top of the two first card holders and the second card holder, and a support rod is fixedly connected to each of the four corners of the top of the connecting plate.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, a rectangular plate is movably connected to the top of the support rod, and a guide rod is movably connected inside the support rod. The top of the guide rod passes through the support rod and extends to the bottom of the rectangular plate, where it is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rectangular plate.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a servo motor is fixedly installed at the rear of the top of the connecting plate, and a rotating shaft is fixedly sleeved at the other end of the output shaft of the servo motor.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, a long rod is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the rotating shaft, and a movable rod is hinged to the other end of the long rod. The other end of the movable rod is hinged to the bottom end of the rectangular plate.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, each of the two first card holders and the two second card holders is fixedly connected with a mounting block, and the number of mounting blocks is two, and the two mounting blocks are of the same size.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] 1. This utility model, by setting up a box body, insert blocks, springs, and pull rods, allows the operator to pull the two pull rods, causing the two insert blocks to move towards each other. This causes the other ends of the two insert blocks to detach from the inside of the two moving rods, thereby releasing the fixing effect on the two moving rods. At this time, the springs are compressed. Then, the operator pulls the box body through the two pull rods, causing the two second card seats to move backward, thereby increasing the distance between the left ends of the two second card seats and the right ends of the two first card seats. This allows the two second card seats and the two first card seats to adapt to different pickup truck chassis.

[0014] 2. This utility model, by setting up a servo motor, a rotating shaft, a long rod, and a movable rod, allows the rotating shaft to rotate along with the long rod when the operator starts the servo motor. This causes the movable rod to move the rectangular plate downwards, thereby adjusting the height of the rectangular plate. This ensures that when a pickup truck is transporting materials at the top of the rectangular plate, it can still pass smoothly even if it encounters a barrier lower than the rectangular plate.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, this utility model provides a vehicle-mounted insulating tool rack, including a pickup truck chassis 1. Hollow blocks 2 are movably installed on the top of the pickup truck chassis 1 in both the front and rear directions. There are two hollow blocks 2. First card holders 3 and second card holders 4 are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the opposite faces of the two hollow blocks 2, respectively. There are two first card holders 3 and two second card holders 4. The back sides of the two first card holders 3 are movably connected to the front sides of the two second card holders 4. Two moving rods 5 are fixedly connected to the back sides of the two first card holders 3, located inside the two second card holders 4. The outer surfaces of the two moving rods 5 are both connected to the two... The inner movable connection of the second card holder 4 is provided. The two moving rods 5 are fixedly connected to the opposite sides of the box body 6. The left and right sides of the inner surface of the box body 6 are movably connected to the inserts 7. There are two inserts 7. The other ends of the two inserts 7 pass through the box body 6 and the two second card holders 4 in sequence and extend into the interior of the two moving rods 5 and are movably connected to the interior of the two moving rods 5. The opposite sides of the two inserts 7 are fixedly connected to the springs 8. The back of the two inserts 7 are fixedly connected to the pull rods 9. The other end of the pull rods 9 passes through the box body 6 and extends to the outside of the back of the box body 6 and the outer surface is movably connected to the interior of the box body 6.

[0024] When the operator pulls the two levers 9, the two inserts 7 will move towards each other, causing the other ends of the two inserts 7 to detach from the inside of the two moving rods 5, thereby releasing the fixing effect on the two moving rods 5. At this time, the operator pulls the box body 6 through the two levers 9, causing the box body 6 to drive the two second card seats 4 to move backward, thereby completing the width adjustment between the first card seat 3 and the second card seat 4.

[0025] Pickup truck chassis 1 has pickup truck longitudinal beams 10 fixedly connected to both the front and rear sides of the bottom end of the pickup truck chassis 1. The two hollow blocks 2 have shims 11 fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the top front and top back of the two hollow blocks 2. The saddle bolts 12 are fixed to the pickup truck chassis 1 through the shims 11.

[0026] Thanks to the design of the four U-bolts 12, the pickup truck can be easily disassembled for annual inspections or other purposes, making the operation simple and convenient.

[0027] Among them, the top of the two first card holders 3 and the second card holder 4 are fixedly installed with connecting plates 13, and support rods 14 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the top of the connecting plates 13.

[0028] Since the connecting plate 13 is fixedly installed with the two first card holders 3 and the two second card holders 4 by bolts, the connecting plate 13 can be disassembled from the top of the two first card holders 3 and the two second card holders 4.

[0029] The top end of the support rod 14 is movably connected to a rectangular plate 15, and the inside of the support rod 14 is movably connected to a guide rod 20. The top end of the guide rod 20 passes through the support rod 14 and extends to the bottom end of the rectangular plate 15 and is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the rectangular plate 15.

[0030] The design of the four guide rods 20 provides a good limiting effect for the subsequent movement of the rectangular plate 15.

[0031] A servo motor 16 is fixedly installed at the rear of the top of the connecting plate 13, and a rotating shaft 17 is fixedly sleeved at the other end of the output shaft of the servo motor 16.

[0032] When the operator starts the servo motor 16, the rotating shaft 17 will rotate.

[0033] Among them, a long rod 18 is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the rotating shaft 17, and a movable rod 19 is hinged to the other end of the long rod 18. The other end of the movable rod 19 is hinged to the bottom end of the rectangular plate 15.

[0034] When the rotating shaft 17 rotates, it will cause the long rod 18 to rotate as well.

[0035] In this arrangement, two mounting blocks 21 are fixedly connected between the opposing surfaces of the two first card holders 3 and the two second card holders 4. There are two mounting blocks 21, and the two mounting blocks 21 are the same size.

[0036] The design of the two mounting blocks 21 allows the operator to further secure the connecting plate 13 to the two mounting blocks 21 using bolts.

[0037] Working principle and usage process of this utility model:

[0038] First, the operator pulls the two levers 9, causing the two levers 9 to move the two inserts 7 in opposite directions, thus disengaging the two inserts 7 from the inside of the two moving rods 5. At this time, the spring 8 will be in a compressed state, thereby releasing the fixing effect on the two moving rods 5. Then, the operator pulls the box body 6 through the two levers 9, causing the box body 6 to move the two second brackets 4 backward, thereby increasing the distance between the two second brackets 4 and the two first brackets 3. This allows the operator to adjust the width of the two first brackets 3 and the two second brackets 4 according to the chassis of the pickup truck. At this time, the operator releases the two levers 9. Due to the restoring force of the spring 8, the two inserts 7 will move in opposite directions and insert into the inside of the two moving rods 5 through the two second brackets 4, thus completing the overall fixing effect of the two moving rods 5 and the two second brackets 4. This allows the two first brackets 3 and the two second brackets 4 to be installed on chassis of different sizes.

[0039] Finally, if the operator encounters a limit bar that is lower than the overall height of the rectangular plate 15 during the operation, the operator will start the servo motor 16, which will cause the rotating shaft 17 and the long rod 18 to rotate. This will cause the movable rod 19 to pull the rectangular plate 15 downward, allowing the operator to pass the limit bar smoothly.
