Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of shock absorber transportation technology, specifically a rapid storage and transportation device for shock absorber assemblies. Background Technology

[0002] A rapid storage and transportation device for shock absorber assemblies is a specialized piece of equipment or tool designed for the efficient storage, transfer, and transportation of fully assembled shock absorber assemblies. It typically takes the form of a structured, movable carrier, frame, or platform. Its necessity lies in protecting the precision components inside the shock absorber assembly (such as piston rods and oil seals) from scratches, deformation, or contamination during production and logistics. Simultaneously, through standardized design, this device enables rapid flow between multiple processes, significantly reducing manual handling time and costs, preventing damage caused by collisions between assemblies, optimizing storage space utilization, and facilitating orderly management and safe handling. This comprehensively addresses the problems of low efficiency, high risk of damage, and management difficulties inherent in traditional methods.

[0003] Traditional storage and transportation equipment lacks a dynamic buffering and separation mechanism. When stacked or densely stored, shock absorbers are prone to surface wear or functional damage due to rigid contact, and cannot effectively suppress the transmission of vibration during transportation. At the same time, the buffer pads in conventional protective structures are mostly simply pasted or placed. When the container is opened and closed or tilted during handling, they are prone to detaching from the container along with the shock absorbers, resulting in the shock absorbers losing protection or even secondary damage. In addition, due to the lack of a rapid verification structure, model confirmation requires repeated opening of the container, which can easily cause components to loosen and operational errors. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a rapid storage and transportation device for shock absorber assemblies to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A rapid storage and transportation device for shock absorber assemblies includes an upper housing and a lower housing fitted together. The upper housing has an upper compartment, and the lower housing has a lower compartment. Plastic frames are embedded in the upper and lower compartments and fixed with bolts. Sponge pads are fixedly installed inside the plastic frames, and two placement slots are respectively opened on the sponge pads. A rubber pad is installed above the plastic frames in the lower compartment via a hinge. A slot is opened on the outside of the upper housing, and an observation door is installed in the slot via a hinge. An acrylic transparent plate is fixedly installed on the inner end face of the slot.

[0007] Preferably, a hinge is fixedly installed at the joint between the upper and lower boxes on one side, and several pads are symmetrically installed at the joints between the upper and lower boxes and the hinge.

[0008] Preferably, a combination lock is fixedly installed at the joint between the upper and lower boxes on the other side, and a first rotating handle is fixedly installed at the joint between the lower box and the combination lock.

[0009] Preferably, a second rotating handle is fixedly installed on the side of the lower housing away from the first rotating handle.

[0010] Preferably, the lower housing is adjacent to the second rotating handle, and a storage slot is provided at the corner.

[0011] Preferably, the storage slot is provided with a lifting handle, and a telescopic rod is symmetrically installed at the bottom end of the lifting handle. The other end of the telescopic rod is telescopically installed inside the telescopic sleeve rod.

[0012] Preferably, the telescopic sleeve extends along the bottom surface of the storage groove into the lower box and is fixed inside the lower box.

[0013] Preferably, omnidirectional wheels are symmetrically installed at one end of the upper and lower boxes opposite the storage slots.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] 1. This shock absorber assembly rapid storage and transportation device, through the synergistic effect of the sponge pad with placement groove in the upper and lower compartments and the hinged rubber pad, forms an elastic partition layer and a multi-directional wrapping and compression structure when the box is closed, ensuring that the shock absorber assembly is firmly embedded in the groove, completely avoiding component shaking, displacement or collision caused by transportation bumps, and significantly improving the protection reliability of precision components.

[0016] 2. This rapid storage and transportation device for shock absorber assemblies fixes the sponge pads separately inside a plastic frame, which is embedded in the upper and lower compartments and locked with bolts, so that the sponge pads and the box body form a rigid connection, effectively preventing the sponge pads from accidentally falling out of the compartments. In particular, when the upper box body is flipped open or closed, it avoids the hidden danger of the shock absorber and sponge pads falling out of the compartments.

[0017] 3. This rapid storage and transportation device for shock absorber assemblies features an observation door structure with an acrylic transparent panel on the outside of the upper housing. This allows the operator to directly observe the model markings of the shock absorbers inside the upper compartment without having to open the entire housing. This design, combined with the through-type open structure of the sponge pad placement slot, ensures clear visibility of the markings, significantly improves the efficiency of model verification before transportation, and effectively avoids the risk of component loosening and model mismatch caused by frequent opening and closing of the housing.

[0023] 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.

[0024] Please see Figures 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution:

[0025] A rapid storage and transportation device for shock absorber assemblies includes an upper housing 101 and a lower housing 102 fitted together. The upper housing 101 has an upper compartment 103, and the lower housing 102 has a lower compartment 104. Plastic frames 105 are embedded in the upper compartment 103 and the lower compartment 104 and fixed with bolts. Sponge pads 106 are fixedly installed inside the plastic frames 105. Two placement slots 107 are respectively opened on the sponge pads 106. A rubber pad 108 is installed above the plastic frames 105 in the lower compartment 104 via a hinge. A slot 119 is opened on the outside of the upper housing 101. An observation door 120 is installed in the slot 119 via a hinge. An acrylic transparent plate 121 is fixedly installed on the inner end face of the slot 119.

[0026] The above solution utilizes an upper and lower box to form a closed storage and transportation space. The upper and lower compartments house the shock absorber assemblies, respectively. Bolted plastic frames within the upper and lower compartments ensure stable internal support. Foam pads fixed within these frames provide cushioning protection for the shock absorber contact surfaces. Two slots on the foam pads precisely limit the shock absorber assemblies to prevent displacement. A rubber pad installed on the hinge above the lower compartment automatically covers the space between the upper and lower shock absorbers when the box is closed, providing elastic separation and bidirectional compression fixation. A slot on the outside of the upper box houses an observation door and an acrylic transparent panel. Users can directly open the observation door when the box is closed and clearly observe the shock absorber model markings on the foam pads in the upper compartment through the acrylic transparent panel. Thanks to the open structure of the foam pad placement slots, the model markings on the shock absorber assembly surface are unobstructed, enabling rapid model verification before transportation and completely avoiding efficiency losses and model mismatch risks caused by opening the entire box.

[0027] In this embodiment, preferably, a hinge 109 is fixedly installed at the joint between the upper box 101 and the lower box 102 on one side, and several pads 110 are symmetrically installed at the adjacent positions of the upper box 101 and the lower box 102 and the hinge 109.

[0028] The above solution enables the controllable flipping and opening of the upper box by fixing a hinge at the fitting point on one side of the box. Several pads symmetrically installed next to the hinge form a support gap at the bottom of the box when the device is placed, preventing the bottom surface of the box and the hinge from directly contacting the ground, which could lead to wear or stress deformation.

[0029] In this embodiment, preferably, a combination lock 111 is fixedly installed at the other side of the upper box 101 and the lower box 102, and a first rotating handle 112 is fixedly installed at the adjacent part of the lower box 102 and the combination lock 111.

[0030] The above solution enables quick locking and unlocking of the upper and lower boxes by a combination lock fixedly installed at the fitting point on the other side of the box, and provides a manual gripping point for short-distance transportation by a first rotating handle installed on the lower box adjacent to the combination lock.

[0031] In this embodiment, preferably, a second rotating handle 113 is fixedly installed on the side of the lower box 102 away from the first rotating handle 112, the lower box 102 is adjacent to the second rotating handle 113, and a storage groove 114 is provided at the corner.

[0032] The above solution creates symmetrical gripping points by installing a second rotating handle on the side of the lower housing away from the first rotating handle, improving balance during tilting and handling. A storage slot at the corner of the lower housing provides space for the concealed lifting assembly.

[0033] In this embodiment, preferably, the storage slot 114 is provided with a lifting handle 115, and a telescopic rod 116 is symmetrically installed at the bottom end of the lifting handle 115. The other end of the telescopic rod 116 is telescopically installed in the telescopic sleeve 117.

[0034] The above solution enables vertical transport by using a lifting handle installed in the storage slot. The handle can be adjusted up and down as needed and maintains bidirectional synchronous support during lifting by using a telescopic rod symmetrically installed at the bottom of the lifting handle and its telescopic structure extending into the telescopic sleeve rod.

[0035] In this embodiment, preferably, the telescopic sleeve 117 extends along the bottom surface of the storage groove 114 into the lower box 102 and is fixed inside the lower box 102. The upper box 101 and the lower box 102 are respectively symmetrically equipped with casters 118 at one end of the storage groove 114.

[0036] The above scheme establishes a rigid foundation for the lifting mechanism by extending and fixing the telescopic rod into the lower housing. The universal wheels symmetrically installed at the bottom of the upper and lower housings enable the device to roll and move effortlessly when lifted or pushed. Meanwhile, the storage slot provides a guide channel for the movement trajectory of the telescopic rod.

[0037] In this embodiment, a rapid storage and transportation device for a shock absorber assembly is used. First, the user unlocks the combination lock 111. Then, using the hinge 109 mounted on one side of the housing as the axis, the user flips the upper housing 101 upwards to separate it from the lower housing 102. Next, the user lifts the rubber pad 108 mounted on top of the lower compartment 104 via a hinge, fully exposing the lower compartment 104 of the lower housing 102. The plastic frame 105 embedded and bolted inside, and the sponge pad 106 installed within the frame, are clearly visible. Two pre-set placement slots 107 on the sponge pad 106 are used for… To precisely accommodate the shock absorber assemblies awaiting storage and transportation, the user securely places two shock absorber assemblies into the placement slots 107 of the sponge pad 106 in the lower compartment 104. The upper compartment 103 has the same structure as the lower compartment 104, also containing a plastic frame 105 with a sponge pad 106 and placement slots 107. Similarly, after accurately placing the two shock absorber assemblies into the placement slots 107 of the upper compartment 103, the upper housing 101 is lowered to gradually fit against the lower housing 102. When the user closes the upper housing 101 downwards and finally tightly fits against the lower housing 102, the two shock absorber assemblies already placed in the upper compartment 103 and the lower... The two shock absorber assemblies already placed in compartment 104 approach each other vertically. During this process, as the upper housing 101 closes, the rubber pad 108 is naturally pressed between the shock absorber assemblies in the upper and lower compartments 104. This elastic rubber pad 108 acts as a crucial separating layer and buffer medium, tightly compressed and filled in the narrow gap between the upper and lower shock absorber assemblies. On the one hand, it provides elastic separation to prevent hard contact between the upper and lower shock absorbers; on the other hand, it utilizes the rebound force generated by its deformation, in conjunction with the wrapping effect of the upper and lower sponge pads 106 placement slots 107, to provide cushioning from multiple directions for each shock absorber assemblies. The shock absorber assembly applies a gentle and continuous compressive force, so that the four shock absorber assemblies are firmly embedded in the corresponding placement slots 107 of the upper and lower sponge pads 106. This effectively eliminates the possibility of undesirable shaking or displacement of the equipment in its respective slots or collisions between each other / with the box wall caused by external forces (such as transportation bumps). This greatly improves the reliability of protection for the precision shock absorber components during storage and transportation. After the entire assembly is closed in place, it is locked by operating the combination lock 111, which finally makes the upper box 101 and the lower box 102 a rigid and sealed whole. At this point, the internal storage and transportation preparation work of the device is completed.

[0038] Furthermore, during the transportation preparation stage, users can directly observe the shock absorber model on the sponge pad 106 inside the upper compartment 103 through the acrylic transparent plate 121 fixed to the inner end face of the slot 119 by opening the observation door 120 installed by the hinge inside the slot 119. Since the placement slot 107 of the sponge pad 106 is designed as a through structure (i.e., the slot is open and the sponge material allows the view to pass through), the model marking on the shock absorber assembly is clearly visible, thus achieving quick and non-invasive model confirmation. This method avoids the cumbersome steps of opening the entire box, significantly saves time, effectively prevents transportation errors caused by incorrect model, and improves storage and transportation efficiency.

[0039] For short-distance transport, the user can grasp the first rotating handle 112 or the second rotating handle 113 on the lower box 102 and tilt the device body to lift and move it. For long-distance transport, the user can manually pull up the lifting handle 115 in the storage slot 114 at the corner of the lower box 102. This upward movement causes the telescopic rod 116, which is symmetrically installed at the bottom of the lifting handle 115, to extend synchronously from the telescopic sleeve 117 fixed inside the box. The user then pulls the lifting handle. After 115, the device can be moved as a whole by rotating the casters 118. Furthermore, when the device is closed, several feet 110 symmetrically installed on the sides adjacent to the hinges 109 of the upper housing 101 and the lower housing 102 provide necessary support gaps for the bottom of the device. This prevents the hinges 109 and the housing from directly contacting the ground. While avoiding the distortion and stress concentration of the housing due to uneven placement, it also protects the housing structure from scratches, dirt, or external impacts, ensuring the stability of placement and the integrity of long-term use.

[0040] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely preferred examples and are not intended to limit the utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
