Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of corn preservation technology, and in particular to a cold storage device for preserving fresh corn. Background Technology
[0002] Fresh corn refers to tender young corn with special flavor and quality, also known as sweet corn. Compared with ordinary corn, it has the characteristics of being sweet, glutinous, tender and fragrant. In order to ensure freshness, fresh corn needs to be refrigerated.
[0003] Currently, the preservation of fresh corn, whether stored in cold storage or transported in refrigerated trucks, involves placing the fresh corn directly into storage boxes. Traditional storage boxes have fixed compartments, and stacking corn can easily cause localized compression damage. Furthermore, the compartments cannot be secured, which can lead to the corn shifting and causing even greater damage and losses during cold chain transportation.
[0004] Therefore, to address the above problems, a fresh corn preservation and refrigeration device can be designed. This device can adjust the internal corn partition structure to prevent corn from being stacked, and can also limit and fix corn of different diameters to prevent them from colliding and being damaged during cold chain transportation. Utility Model Content
[0005] To overcome the problems of traditional storage boxes having fixed compartments, which can easily cause localized compression damage when corn is stacked, and the inability to secure the separated corn, which can lead to greater damage and losses during cold chain transportation.
[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a fresh corn preservation and refrigeration device, including a box body, guide rails, slots, shelves, mounting grooves, insert plates, springs, and levers. The shelves are disposed inside the box body, and multiple sets of shelves are provided. The inner wall of the box body is fixedly installed with guide rails, and the shelves are slidably connected to the box body through the guide rails. Two sets of mounting grooves are symmetrically arranged inside the shelves, and the mounting grooves penetrate the front end and side wall of the shelves. The insert plates are slidably connected inside the mounting grooves. Multiple sets of springs are fixedly installed between the insert plates and the inner wall of the mounting grooves. A lever is fixedly installed on one side of the insert plates. Multiple sets of slots are opened on the inner wall of the box body, and the multiple sets of slots are evenly and linearly arranged. One end of the insert plate is located inside the slot.
[0007] Preferably, by setting shelves, the interior of the box can be divided into multiple spaces, thereby preventing corn from being directly stacked together and causing local compression damage. By setting a lever, the insert plate can be pulled to slide along the mounting groove, so that one end of the insert plate is separated from the slot, which can unlock the shelf and allow the shelf to slide along the guide rail inside the box. When the shelf is adjusted to the appropriate height, the lever is released, and the spring can push the insert plate to be stably inserted into the slot to lock the shelf. This allows the spacing between two sets of shelves to be adjusted, and can limit and fix corn of different diameters, preventing the corn from shaking and colliding with each other during cold chain transportation.
[0008] Preferably, two sets of slide rails are symmetrically fixedly installed on the upper end of the shelf, and a support plate is slidably connected between the two sets of slide rails. A handle is fixedly installed on the front end of the support plate.
[0009] Preferably, silicone pads are provided at the lower end of the top surface inside the box, the lower end of the shelf, and the upper end of the tray. Multiple sets of arc-shaped grooves are formed on the surface of the silicone pads. The multiple sets of arc-shaped grooves are evenly and linearly arranged, and the arc-shaped grooves on the surfaces of two sets of silicone pads correspond to each other.
[0010] Preferably, the front end of the box is symmetrically connected to two sets of movable doors via hinges, and multiple sets of through-holes are opened on both the movable doors and the rear end of the box.
[0011] Preferably, a mounting shaft is fixedly installed at the front end of one set of movable doors, and a locking bar is rotatably installed around the mounting shaft; a lock frame is fixedly installed at the front end of another set of movable doors.
[0012] As a preferred option, handles are provided on both the left and right sides of the box, and four sets of casters are fixedly installed at the bottom of the box.
[0013] Preferably, four sets of internally threaded mounting posts are fixedly installed at the lower end of the housing, and the internal threads of the internally threaded mounting posts are connected to threaded feet.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] When storing corn, the tray can be slid out of the box along the guide rail by pulling the handle, making it easy to store and retrieve the corn. The arc-shaped groove on the surface of the silicone pad allows for individual storage of corn, reducing damage caused by mutual squeezing. The silicone pad also provides protection for the corn by direct contact with the corn, preventing damage from rigid contact between the corn and the shelf and tray. Once the top of each shelf is full of corn, the insert plate can be slid out of the slot by using the lever, unlocking the shelf and allowing it to slide along the guide rail inside the box. After the shelf is adjusted to the appropriate height, the lever can be released, and the spring will push the insert plate to stably insert into the slot and lock the shelf. Repeat the above steps to adjust each set of shelves, thereby adjusting the spacing between the two sets of shelves and limiting and fixing corn of different diameters. This prevents the corn from shaking and colliding with each other during cold chain transportation. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0024] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 6 This utility model provides an embodiment of a fresh corn preservation and refrigeration device, comprising a box body 1, a guide rail 101, slots 102, shelves 2, mounting grooves 201, insert plates 202, springs 203, and levers 204. The shelves 2 are disposed inside the box body 1, and multiple sets of shelves 2 are provided. The guide rails 101 are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the box body 1, and the shelves 2 are slidably connected to the box body 1 via the guide rails 101. Two sets of mounting grooves 201 are symmetrically arranged inside the shelves 2, penetrating the front end and side wall of the shelves 2. Insert plates 202 are slidably connected to the inside of the mounting grooves 201. Multiple sets of springs 203 are fixedly installed between the insert plates 202 and the inner wall of the mounting grooves 201. A lever 204 is fixedly installed on one side of the insert plates 202. Multiple sets of slots 102 are opened on the inner wall of the box body 1, and the multiple sets of slots 102 are evenly and linearly arranged. One end is located inside the slot 102; by setting the shelf 2, the interior of the box 1 can be divided into multiple spaces, thereby preventing corn from being directly stacked together and causing local compression damage. By setting the lever 204, the insert plate 202 can be pulled to slide along the mounting groove 201, thereby causing one end of the insert plate 202 to leave the slot 102, which can unlock the shelf 2, allowing the shelf 2 to slide along the guide rail 101 inside the box 1. When the shelf 2 is adjusted to a suitable height, the lever 204 is released, and the spring 203 can push the insert plate 202 to be stably inserted into the slot 102 to lock the shelf 2, thereby adjusting the distance between the two sets of shelves 2, limiting and fixing corn of different diameters, and preventing the corn from shaking and colliding with each other during cold chain transportation.
[0025] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 3In this embodiment, the front end of the box 1 is symmetrically connected to two sets of movable doors 401 via hinges. Multiple through-holes 402 are provided on both the movable doors 401 and the rear end of the box 1. The movable doors 401 provide shelter and protection for the interior of the box 1 while facilitating the storage and retrieval of corn. The through-holes 402 allow cold air from the cold storage or refrigerated truck to enter the box 1, preserving the corn. A mounting shaft 403 is fixedly installed at the front end of one set of movable doors 401, and a locking bar 404 is rotatably installed around the mounting shaft 403. A locking frame 405 is fixedly installed at the front end of the other set of movable doors 401. The mounting shaft 403 supports and installs the locking bar 404, and the locking bar 404 rotates along the mounting shaft 403 into the locking frame 405. Inside, two sets of movable doors 401 can be locked to prevent accidental opening. Handles 501 are provided on both the left and right sides of the box 1, and four sets of casters 502 are fixedly installed at the lower end of the box 1. The handles 501 facilitate easy handling of the box 1, and the casters 502 facilitate easy movement of the box 1. Four sets of internally threaded mounting posts 503 are fixedly installed at the lower end of the box 1, with threaded feet 504 connected to the internal threads of the mounting posts 503. By installing the threaded feet 504 within the internally threaded mounting posts 503, and by allowing the threaded feet 504 to rotate within the internally threaded mounting posts 503, the casters 502 can be raised when not in use, facilitating the placement and stacking of the box 1.
[0026] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 5 In this embodiment, two sets of sliding rails 301 are symmetrically fixedly installed on the upper end of the shelf 2, and a tray 302 is slidably connected between the two sets of sliding rails 301. A handle 303 is fixedly installed on the front end of the tray 302. Silicone pads 304 are provided on the lower end of the top surface inside the box 1, the lower end of the shelf 2, and the upper end of the tray 302. Multiple sets of arc-shaped grooves are opened on the surface of the silicone pads 304. The multiple sets of arc-shaped grooves are evenly linearly arranged, and the arc-shaped grooves on the surfaces of the two sets of silicone pads 304 correspond to each other. The tray 302 can support and place corn, and the arc-shaped grooves on the surface of the silicone pad 304 can store corn separately. The silicone pad 304 is in direct contact with the corn, which can protect the corn and prevent damage caused by rigid contact between the corn and the shelf 2 and the tray 302. The handle 303 can be used to pull the tray 302 along the sliding rail 301 to move and pull it out, which is convenient for storing and retrieving corn.
[0027] When working, the locking bar 404 rotates along the mounting shaft 403 to move away from the locking frame 405, unlocking and opening the movable door 401;
[0028] Then, by using the handle 303 to pull the tray 302 along the slide rail 301, the box 1 can be pulled out, which makes it easy to store and retrieve the corn. The arc groove on the surface of the silicone pad 304 can be used to store the corn separately, reducing the damage caused by the corn squeezing each other. The silicone pad 304 is in direct contact with the corn, which can protect the corn and prevent the corn from being damaged by rigid contact with the shelf 2 and the tray 302.
[0029] Once each shelf 2 is filled with corn, the lever 204 is used to move the insert plate 202 along the mounting groove 201 away from the slot 102, thereby unlocking the shelf 2. This allows the shelf 2 to slide along the guide rail 101 inside the box 1. When the shelf 2 is adjusted to the appropriate height, the lever 204 is released, and the spring 203 pushes the insert plate 202 to be stably inserted into the slot 102 to lock the shelf 2. This allows the spacing between the two sets of shelves 2 to be adjusted, and corn of different diameters to be limited and fixed. This prevents the corn from shaking and colliding with each other during cold chain transportation.
[0030] After the corn is stored, close the movable door 401 and lock the movable door 401 with the cooperation of the lock bar 404 and the lock frame 405 to prevent the movable door 401 from being opened accidentally. Then, use the handle 501 to move the box 1, or use the moving wheel 502 to move the box 1.
[0031] Once the container 1 is moved to a suitable position inside the cold storage or refrigerated truck, the threaded support 504 can rotate within the internally threaded mounting post 503. This allows the moving wheels 502 to be raised when the container 1 is not being moved, making it easier to place and stack the container 1.
[0032] Through the above steps, the interior of the box 1 is divided into multiple spaces by the shelf 2, thereby preventing corn from being directly stacked together and causing local compression damage. The shelf 2 can be height adjusted inside the box 1 along the guide rail 101, and the spring 203 applies pressure to the insert plate 202 to insert the insert plate 202 into the slot 102 and lock it in place. This limits and fixes corn of different diameters, preventing the corn from shaking and colliding with each other during cold chain transportation. This solves the problem that traditional storage boxes have fixed partition structures, which can easily cause local compression damage when corn is stacked, and cannot fix the separated corn, which can easily cause the corn to shake and cause greater damage and loss during cold chain transportation.
[0033] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
