Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of furniture or storage device technology, and in particular to a storage rack that is easy to install, structurally stable and has good modular expandability, especially a storage rack that uses a new type of connector to realize the suspension and support of the load-bearing component. Background Technology

[0002] Shelves are common functional devices widely used in homes, offices, and supermarkets, primarily for storing and displaying items. Depending on the installation method, existing shelves mainly include freestanding, wall-mounted, and hanging types. Among them, wall-mounted shelves are particularly suitable for wall-mounted storage needs due to their space-saving and easy-to-clean advantages, and have been widely adopted.

[0003] Existing wall-mounted shelves typically consist of a base fixed to the wall and a support for placing items. To connect the two, components such as hooks and support brackets are often used.

[0004] When using a simple suspension hook structure, the load-bearing component often wobbles due to the lack of support below, resulting in poor stability. While a support bracket structure can support the load-bearing component from below, the lack of horizontal restraint makes it prone to slippage or detachment during use. These connection methods generally suffer from the problem of the hanging and supporting functions being independent and difficult to coordinate, leading to insufficient overall stability and safety of the shelving unit.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide a connection structure that is simple in structure, easy to install, and can simultaneously realize the functions of hanging and supporting, so as to improve the modular design level and reliability of the shelving. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a storage rack that solves the problems of existing storage racks where the connecting and supporting functions are independent and difficult to coordinate, resulting in insufficient overall stability and safety of the storage rack.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the storage rack provided by this utility model includes:

[0008] Fixed substrate;

[0009] A support structure used to hold items;

[0010] The connector is disposed on a fixed base and has a first wall and a second wall that are substantially perpendicular to each other. The first wall is provided with a hanging part for suspending the carrier and the second wall is provided with a supporting part for supporting the carrier.

[0011] Preferably, the free end of the hook portion forms a V-shaped opening that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom with the first wall surface.

[0012] Preferably, the support portion is located at the bottom edge of the second wall surface and extends in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the second wall surface, for supporting the bottom of the carrier.

[0013] Preferably, the connector and the fixing base are detachably connected.

[0014] Preferably, the first wall surface and the second wall surface are integrally bent from the same metal plate.

[0015] Preferably, the support member includes a rectangular frame and a grid plate disposed on the rectangular frame.

[0016] Preferably, the fixing base includes a mounting panel and a tie rod, one end of the tie rod is connected to the upper part of the mounting panel, and the other end of the tie rod extends outward and downward; a connector is provided on the mounting panel and the tie rod.

[0017] Preferably, the fixing base includes two units spaced apart from each other on the left and right. Each fixing base has a connecting member on its mounting panel and diagonal tie rod. The hanging parts on the four connecting members are used to hang the four sides of the bearing member, so as to jointly suspend and support the bearing member.

[0018] Preferably, the mounting panel has a mounting portion at the middle position in the width direction, and the connecting member is provided on the two opposite sides of the mounting portion.

[0019] Preferably, the two connectors provided on the two opposite sides of the mounting part have the same structure, and the two connectors are installed in mutually perpendicular directions, so that the hanging part and the supporting part on each connector are arranged at different angles in space.

[0020] One or more technical solutions provided in this utility model have at least the following technical effects or advantages:

[0021] The core of this invention lies in the structural design of its connector. The connector is mounted on a fixed base and is formed by integrally bending a first wall surface and a second wall surface that are substantially perpendicular to each other. The first wall surface has a hanging portion for suspending the load-bearing component, and the second wall surface has a supporting portion for supporting the load-bearing component.

[0022] Through the above structural design, this utility model integrates the hanging function and the support function into the same connector, realizing the synergistic effect of the hanging limit of the bearing and the positioning of the lower support, thereby effectively limiting the unnecessary displacement of the bearing in the vertical and horizontal directions, significantly improving the installation stability and safety of the bearing, and avoiding the problems of shaking or accidental detachment.

[0023] Compared to existing technologies that require separate installation of hooks and brackets, the connector structure of this invention is more compact and functionally unified. During installation, users only need to hang the load-bearing component and place it on the connector; no additional limiting or supporting components are required, thus simplifying the installation process and improving assembly efficiency. Furthermore, thanks to the cooperation between the hook and support structures, the reliance on fasteners during the overall installation process is reduced, resulting in a simpler product structure that facilitates mass production, transportation, and rapid disassembly and reconstruction, demonstrating promising prospects for modular applications.

Detailed Implementation

[0033] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Example 1

[0034] refer to Figures 1 to 5 This embodiment provides a storage rack, which mainly includes two fixed bases 10, one support member 20, and four connectors 30. In this embodiment, the four connectors 30 work together to securely hang and support the individual support member 20.

[0035] The fixing base 10 is the structural support part that connects the shelf to the wall or other mounting surface. In this embodiment, the fixing base 10 includes a mounting panel 11 and a diagonal brace 12. The mounting panel 11 is elongated and has multiple mounting through holes 112. The mounting through holes 112 can be used with screws, expansion bolts, and other fasteners to firmly fix the mounting panel 11 to the wall, ensuring the overall structure is stable and reliable. One end of the diagonal brace 12 is connected to the upper part of the mounting panel 11 through a connecting part 113, and the other end extends outward and downward (see...). Figure 1 , Figure 3 The basic triangular structure further enhances the load-bearing capacity and anti-tipping performance of the shelving unit.

[0036] The structure of the fixed base 10 is not limited to the above combination method. It can also adopt an integrated structure, such as an integral bracket, a right-angle connecting plate, etc.; or in specific space applications, it can be directly fixed to the wall by multiple connectors 30 without the need for a diagonal tie rod structure.

[0037] The support member 20 is used to place or store items. In this embodiment, the support member 20 includes a rectangular frame 21 and a grid plate 22 disposed thereon (see...). Figure 5 The mesh panel 22 can be made of materials such as wire mesh, perforated plate, or stainless steel mesh, providing good permeability and strength, facilitating ventilation and cleaning, and preventing small items from falling. To enhance structural rigidity, a reinforcing member 23 can be provided in the middle of the rectangular frame 21. The edges of the rectangular frame 21 extend downwards, serving as important structural parts that cooperate with the connector 30.

[0038] Of course, the load-bearing component 20 is not limited to the above-mentioned forms, and can also be a solid board, glass board, plastic panel, or wooden shelf, etc. Its structural shape is not limited to rectangle, but can also be circular, polygonal, etc., to adapt to different spatial and functional requirements.

[0039] The connector 30 is a core design component of this invention. It is mounted on the mounting panel 11 and the tie rod 12 of the fixed base 10, and is used to collaboratively connect and support the load-bearing component 20. (See also...) Figure 2 and Figure 4 The connector 30 has an overall L-shaped structure, with a first wall 31 and a second wall 32 that are basically perpendicular to each other. It is preferably formed by integral bending of a single metal plate, which has high structural strength and manufacturing consistency. Alternatively, welding, riveting, or other methods can be used to fix the two independent plates into a vertical structure.

[0040] The first wall surface 31 is provided with a hook-shaped part 311, which is preferably a hook-shaped structure. Its free end forms a V-shaped opening that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom with the first wall surface 31, which can limit and suspend the frame of the carrier 20. When the carrier is pressed down and inserted into the hook-shaped part from above, the frame of the carrier 20 is lifted by the hook-shaped part 311 and its horizontal movement is restricted by the V-shaped opening, which effectively prevents accidental shaking or falling off and improves safety.

[0041] The bottom of the second wall surface 32 is provided with a support portion 321. The support portion 321 extends outward in a direction perpendicular to the plane where the second wall surface 32 is located, and is used to support the bottom of the load-bearing member 20 and assist in bearing its downward pressure. This "hanging + support" design effectively realizes the horizontal limiting of the load-bearing member 20 and the structural coordination of the lower support, enhancing the anti-displacement ability and load-bearing performance of the shelf during use.

[0042] The shapes of the hook part 311 and the support part 321 can vary depending on the usage scenario. For example, the hook part can be a U-shaped groove, a beveled hook, or a barbed hook structure, and the support part can also be provided with anti-slip flanges or elastic washers to enhance contact force and stability.

[0043] In this embodiment, the two fixed bases are spaced approximately 10 apart (see...). Figure 1 Each mounting panel 11 and diagonal brace 12 of the fixed base is equipped with a connector 30, for a total of four connectors 30 located at the four corners of the bearing member 20, thereby suspending and supporting the four sides of the bearing member 20. The connectors 30 are preferably connected to the mounting panel 11 and diagonal brace 12 in a detachable manner, such as screw connection or snap-fit ​​structure, to facilitate assembly, replacement and modular expansion. Example 2

[0044] refer to Figures 6 to 8This embodiment further demonstrates the modular expansion capability of the shelving unit, particularly how multiple connectors 30 support multiple horizontally arranged load-bearing members 20.

[0045] In this embodiment, the shelf supports two parallel-mounted load-bearing members 20 (see [reference]) via three fixed bases 10 and eight connectors 30. Figure 6 These three fixed bases 10 are spaced apart on the left and right. For example, each of the two fixed bases 10 on both sides supports two connectors 30 (located on their mounting panels 11 and diagonal braces 12, respectively), while the middle fixed base 10 can simultaneously provide support points for two adjacent connectors 20. This design allows the shelf to be expanded laterally according to actual needs. By increasing the number of fixed bases 10 and corresponding connectors 20, the length of the shelf can be easily extended to adapt to different wall sizes and storage requirements.

[0046] In addition to horizontal expansion, the vertical expansion and multi-layer combination of the shelving can also be achieved by designing a fixed base 10 that can be connected in the vertical direction, so as to meet more complex space utilization needs.

[0047] More specifically, in order to achieve the side-by-side horizontal arrangement of the two support members 20, the mounting panel 11 of the middle fixed base 10 is provided with a mounting part 111 in the middle of the width direction (see Figure 7 The mounting section 111 has two connectors 30 on its two opposite sides. The intermediate fixing base 10 also has two diagonal braces 12, located on both sides of the mounting panel 11 and extending outwards and downwards. Each diagonal brace 12 has a connector 30 (see...). Figure 8 Therefore, the intermediate fixed base 10 carries four connectors 30, which together with the fixed bases 10 on both sides (each carrying two connectors 30) constitute a total of eight connectors 30, effectively supporting the two carriers 20.

[0048] In a preferred embodiment, two identical connectors 30 are respectively disposed on opposite sides of the mounting portion 111 of the mounting panel 11 of the middle fixed base 10, and one connector 30 is mounted by rotating 90° relative to the other about a vertical axis (see [link]). Figure 7 , Figure 8 By using this angled installation method, the hanging part 311 and the supporting part 321 on the two connectors 30 have different orientations in space, thereby providing non-unidirectional clamping and support for the carrier 20.

[0049] For example, in one connector, the hook portion 311 faces left and the supporting portion 321 faces forward; in the other rotatably mounted connector, the hook portion 311 faces forward and the supporting portion 321 faces right (see...). Figure 7This spatial arrangement with angular differences allows the two load-bearing components 20 to be stably installed side-by-side with a small gap, forming an angled support structure. This also ensures that the vertical load and horizontal shear force borne by the two connecting components 30 are located at different positions, resulting in force dispersion and balance, further enhancing the overall stability and load-bearing capacity of the shelf.

[0050] In addition, the 30-degree rotating installation solution of this connector not only improves the flexibility of structural adaptation, but also facilitates standardized mass production and rapid on-site installation, eliminating the need to distinguish between left and right parts and front and back parts, thus optimizing manufacturing and assembly efficiency.

[0051] This utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. All technical solutions that conform to the protection scope of the claims of this utility model should fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
