Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bathroom product transportation tools, and in particular to a stacking rack for washbasins. Background Technology

[0002] Washbasins, as common sanitary ware products in bathrooms, are widely used in homes, hotels, shopping malls, and other places. There are many types of washbasins available, which can be categorized by material into ceramic basins, artificial stone basins, quartz stone basins, stainless steel basins, acrylic basins, and resin composite material basins. Ceramic and artificial stone basins are the most commonly used. These basins are hard but lack flexibility; if stacked, the weight of the upper basin may crack the lower one. Therefore, ceramic and artificial stone basins cannot be directly stacked during storage and transportation; they need to be placed independently to avoid mutual compression. However, independent placement occupies a lot of space during transportation or centralized storage, resulting in higher storage and transportation costs for washbasins.

[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a support structure that can safely stack ceramic and artificial stone washbasins during transportation and storage, in order to reduce the storage and transportation costs of washbasins by stacking them. Utility Model Content

[0004] Based on this, the present invention provides a stacking rack for washbasins, including a horizontally arranged base plate, a support rod fixedly arranged in the middle of the base plate, the support rod being cylindrical and vertically arranged, and the surface of the support rod being threaded; it also includes a plurality of connecting sleeves sleeved on the support rod and threadedly connected to the support rod, a first support plate and a second support plate being fixedly arranged at the bottom and top of the connecting sleeves respectively, the first support plate and the second support plate being horizontally arranged, and both the first support plate and the second support plate having through holes for the support rod to pass through.

[0005] In this invention, the stacking rack is used for layered stacking and fixing of washbasins. The process is as follows: First, place the first washbasin on the base plate and pass a support rod through the drain hole at the bottom of the washbasin. Then, screw a connecting sleeve into the support rod, and press the first support plate on the connecting sleeve against the bottom of the washbasin to fix it. Next, place the second washbasin on the second support plate of the connecting sleeve, again passing the support rod through the drain hole, and then screw in another connecting sleeve, pressing its first support plate firmly against the bottom of the second washbasin. This process is repeated to achieve vertical stacking and layered fixing of multiple washbasins along the support rod. In this way, washbasins can be stacked together for storage and transportation, reducing storage and transportation costs.

[0006] In this invention, preferably, the diameter of the support rod needs to be smaller than the diameter of the drain hole of the washbasin, so as to avoid direct hard contact between the support rod and the drain hole during the stacking of the washbasins, which would cause damage to the hole wall. At the same time, a cushioning material such as cotton cloth or rubber pad can be inserted between the drain hole and the support rod to further ensure that the support rod and the drain hole do not make direct hard contact.

[0007] Furthermore, it also includes a horizontal top plate, with a mounting hole in the middle of the top plate, and the support rod is sleeved through the mounting hole; a first clamping nut for abutting against the upper surface of the top plate is also sleeved on the support rod.

[0008] In this invention, the top plate is used to install on the upper part of the support rod. Specifically, the top plate is fitted onto the support rod through mounting holes, and then the top plate is pressed and fixed to the uppermost washbasin by the first clamping nut installed on the support rod. At this time, the top plate can act as a cover, thereby providing shelter and protection for the washbasin at the top of the stacking rack. Preferably, after the washbasins are stacked on the stacking rack, the edges of the top plate and the bottom plate extend to the outer side of the washbasin, thereby reducing the possibility of the washbasin's edges being scratched or impacted during handling and transportation.

[0009] Furthermore, the base plate is also provided with a number of stop bars surrounding the support rod. The stop bars are cylindrical and vertically arranged. The top plate is provided with a connecting hole for the stop bars to pass through, and the top end of the stop bar passes through the connecting hole.

[0010] In this invention, the position of the baffle on the base plate needs to be set according to the size of the washbasin so that the baffle can surround the outside of the washbasin on the stacking rack, thereby further protecting the edge of the washbasin and further reducing the possibility of the edge of the washbasin being scratched or impacted during handling and transportation.

[0011] Furthermore, the upper section of the stop bar is provided with threads to form a first threaded section, and a second clamping nut and a third clamping nut are sleeved on the first threaded section. The second clamping nut and the third clamping nut are respectively used to abut against the upper surface and the lower surface of the top plate.

[0012] In this invention, the second and third clamping nuts, which are pressed against the upper and lower surfaces of the top plate, are used to fix the stop bar and the top plate together, thereby fixing the bottom plate and the top plate together. At this time, the top plate, bottom plate and stop bar, which are fixedly connected together, can support and strengthen the support bar, and can prevent the support bar from bending during the storage and transportation of the stacking rack, thereby preventing the washbasin from breaking due to bending of the support bar.

[0013] Furthermore, the lower end of the stop bar is detachably mounted on the base plate.

[0014] In this invention, during the stacking of washbasins, the baffle can be removed from the base plate, thereby preventing the baffle from affecting the stacking of washbasins.

[0015] Furthermore, the lower section of the stop bar is provided with threads to form a second threaded section, and the upper surface of the base plate is provided with a threaded mounting hole corresponding to the second threaded section, and the second threaded section is installed in the threaded mounting hole.

[0016] In this invention, the baffle is detachably mounted on the base plate via a threaded connection structure. The baffle can be disassembled and installed by rotating it. Therefore, after the washbasins are stacked, the lower end of the baffle passes through the connecting hole on the top plate and can be inserted downward into the threaded hole on the base plate, thus successfully completing the installation of the baffle.

[0017] Furthermore, the lower surface of the first support plate and the upper surface of the second support plate are both covered with a rubber buffer layer.

[0018] In this invention, the rubber buffer layer disposed on the first support plate and the second support plate forms a buffer structure between the washbasin and the first and second support plates to avoid damage to the washbasin from hard-on contact; at the same time, the rubber buffer layer can also increase the friction between the washbasin and the first and second support plates, which can prevent the washbasin from shifting relative to the support rod during transportation, thereby preventing contact between the drain hole and the support rod.

[0019] The principle and effects of this utility model will be further explained below with reference to the above technical solution and the accompanying drawings: In this invention, the connecting sleeve installed on the support rod supports and abuts the washbasin through its first and second support plates, which can fix the washbasin one by one on the support rod, thereby realizing the stacking of the washbasins on the stacking rack. This allows the washbasins to be stored and transported together, thus reducing the storage and transportation costs of the washbasins. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0023] To facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. In this description, directional terms such as up, down, left, and right are all used in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Figure 1 For reference: like Figure 1-5 A stacking rack for washbasins includes a horizontally arranged base plate 11, a support rod 12 fixedly arranged in the middle of the base plate 11, the support rod 12 being cylindrical and vertically arranged, and the surface of the support rod 12 being threaded; it also includes a plurality of connecting sleeves 13 sleeved on the support rod 12 and threadedly connected to the support rod 12, a first support plate 131 and a second support plate 132 respectively fixedly arranged at the bottom and top of the connecting sleeves 13, the first support plate 131 and the second support plate 132 being horizontally arranged, and both the first support plate 131 and the second support plate 132 having through holes for the support rod 12 to pass through.

[0024] In this invention, the stacking rack is used for layered stacking and fixing of washbasins 2. The process is as follows: First, place the first washbasin 2 on the base plate 11, and pass the support rod 12 through the drain hole 21 at the bottom of the washbasin 2. Then, screw a connecting sleeve 13 into the support rod 12, and press the first support plate 131 on the connecting sleeve 13 against the bottom of the washbasin 2 to fix it. Next, place the second washbasin 2 on the second support plate 132 of the connecting sleeve 13, again passing the support rod 12 through the drain hole 21 of the washbasin 2, and then screw in another connecting sleeve 13, pressing the first support plate 131 firmly against the bottom of the second washbasin 2. This cycle is repeated, allowing multiple washbasins 2 to be vertically stacked and fixed layer by layer along the support rod 12. In this way, the washbasins 2 can be stacked together for storage and transportation, reducing storage and transportation costs.

[0025] In this invention, preferably, the diameter of the support rod 12 needs to be smaller than the diameter of the drain hole 21 of the washbasin 2, so as to avoid direct hard contact between the support rod 12 and the drain hole 21 during the stacking of the washbasin 2 and damage to the hole wall. At the same time, cotton cloth, rubber pads and other cushioning materials can be inserted between the drain hole 21 and the support rod 12 to further ensure that the support rod 12 and the drain hole 21 will not have direct hard contact.

[0026] Furthermore, it also includes a horizontal top plate 14, with a mounting hole in the middle of the top plate 14, and the support rod 12 is sleeved through the mounting hole; a first clamping nut 16 for abutting against the upper surface of the top plate 14 is also sleeved on the support rod 12.

[0027] In this invention, the top plate 14 is used to install on the upper part of the support rod 12. Specifically, the top plate 14 is fitted onto the support rod 12 through its mounting holes. Then, the top plate 14 is pressed and fixed to the upper end of the uppermost washbasin 2 by the first clamping nut 16 installed on the support rod 12. At this time, the top plate 14 can act as a cover, thereby providing shelter and protection for the uppermost washbasin 2 on the stacking rack. Preferably, after the washbasin 2 is placed on the stacking rack, the edges of the top plate 14 and the bottom edge extend to the outside of the washbasin 2, thereby reducing the possibility of the edges of the washbasin 2 being scratched or impacted during handling and transportation.

[0028] Furthermore, the base plate 11 is also provided with a plurality of stop bars 15 surrounding the support rod 12. The stop bars 15 are cylindrical and vertically arranged. The top plate 14 is provided with a connecting hole for the stop bars 15 to pass through, and the top end of the stop bar 15 passes through the connecting hole.

[0029] In this utility model, the position of the baffle 15 on the base plate 11 needs to be set according to the size of the washbasin 2 so that the baffle 15 can surround the outside of the washbasin 2 on the stacking rack, thereby further protecting the edge of the washbasin 2 and further reducing the possibility of the edge of the washbasin 2 being scratched or impacted during handling and transportation.

[0030] Furthermore, the upper part of the stop bar 15 is provided with threads to form a first threaded section 151. A second clamping nut 17 and a third clamping nut 18 are sleeved on the first threaded section 151. The second clamping nut 17 and the third clamping nut 18 are respectively used to abut against the upper surface and the lower surface of the top plate 14.

[0031] In this invention, the second clamping nut 17 and the third clamping nut 18, which are pressed against the upper and lower surfaces of the top plate 14, are used to fix the stop rod 15 and the top plate 14 together, thereby fixing the bottom plate 11 and the top plate 14 together. At this time, the top plate 14, the bottom plate 11 and the stop rod 15, which are fixedly connected together, can support and strengthen the support rod 12, and can prevent the support rod 12 from bending during the storage and transportation of the stacking rack, thereby preventing the washbasin 2 from breaking due to the bending of the support rod 12.

[0032] Furthermore, the lower end of the stop bar 15 is detachably mounted on the base plate 11.

[0033] In this invention, during the stacking operation of the washbasins 2, the baffle 15 can be removed from the base plate 11, thereby avoiding the presence of the baffle affecting the stacking operation of the washbasins 2.

[0034] Furthermore, the lower section of the stop bar 15 is provided with threads to form a second threaded section 152, and the upper surface of the base plate 11 is provided with a threaded mounting hole corresponding to the second threaded section 152, and the second threaded section 152 is installed in the threaded mounting hole.

[0035] In this utility model, the baffle 15 is detachably installed on the base plate 11 through a threaded connection structure. The baffle 15 can be disassembled and installed by rotating it. Therefore, after the washbasins 2 are stacked, the lower end of the baffle 15 can pass through the connecting hole on the top plate 14 and be inserted into the threaded hole on the base plate 11, so that the installation of the baffle 15 can be completed smoothly.

[0036] Furthermore, the lower surface of the first support plate 131 and the upper surface of the second support plate 132 are both covered with a rubber buffer layer.

[0037] In this invention, the rubber buffer layer disposed on the first support plate 131 and the second support plate 132 forms a buffer structure between the washbasin 2 and the first support plate 131 and the second support plate 132 to avoid damage to the washbasin 2 from hard contact; at the same time, the rubber buffer layer can also increase the friction between the washbasin 2 and the first support plate 131 and the second support plate 132, which can prevent the washbasin 2 from shifting relative to the support rod 12 during transportation, thereby preventing contact between the drain hole 21 and the support rod 12.

[0038] The above embodiments only illustrate several implementation methods of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
