Detailed Implementation

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model;

[0022] Please see Figure 1-4 In this utility model, the modular and expandable unmanned supermarket combination shelf includes a shelf base 1, a shelf back plate 2 fixedly installed on the top of the shelf base 1, shelf back plate 2 having evenly distributed shelf positioning holes 201, two limiting slots 202 on the front of the shelf back plate 2, shelf shelves 3 evenly distributed on the front of the shelf back plate 2, two limiting blocks 301 fixedly installed on the back of the shelf shelves 3, the limiting blocks 301 being located inside the limiting slots 202 and slidably connected to the inner wall of the limiting slots 202, two fixing seats 302 fixedly installed on the top of the shelf shelves 3, the front of the fixing seats 302 being threadedly connected to limiting bolts 303, one end of the back of the limiting bolts 303 penetrating the fixing seats 302 and being threadedly connected to the corresponding shelf positioning hole 201.

[0023] The shelf back panel 2 includes three combined back panels 21, which are installed vertically. The top and bottom of the back of each combined back panel 21 are integrally formed with connecting ear plates 211. Adjacent combined back panels 21 are connected through connecting ear plates 211. The bottom combined back panel 21 is connected to the shelf base 1 through the bottom connecting ear plate 211. The connecting ear plate 211 is threaded with a suitable connecting bolt 212. The top and bottom of the front of each combined back panel 21 are integrally formed with two protrusions 215. The corresponding protrusions 215 on adjacent combined back panels 21 fit together. The bottom protrusion 215 of the bottom combined back panel 21 fits together with the shelf base 1.

[0024] When it is necessary to assemble and adjust the unmanned supermarket shelves, the user first places the shelf base 1 in the target position, then fixes the combined back plate 21 to the shelf base 1 through the bottom connecting ear plate 211, and locks it with connecting bolts 212 to ensure structural stability.

[0025] If the height of the shelf needs to be increased, a combination back panel 21 can be added on top. The new back panel is connected to the connecting ear plate 211 on the top and fixed with connecting bolts 212 to achieve vertical expansion. In addition, the design of the protrusion 215 allows adjacent combination back panels 21 to fit tightly when spliced, enhancing the overall structural stability and avoiding misalignment.

[0026] After the back panel assembly is completed, the shelf panel 3 can be installed. During installation, the limiting block 301 is slid into the limiting slot 202 from the top to initially fix the shelf panel 3 to the back panel 2. Then, by rotating the limiting bolt 303, it is made to pass through the fixing seat 302 and screw into the corresponding shelf positioning hole 201 to achieve the final locking of the shelf panel 3. This design not only ensures the stable installation of the shelf panel 3, but also allows users to freely adjust the height and number of the shelf panels 3 according to their needs to adapt to the display needs of different products.

[0027] If the height of shelf 3 needs to be adjusted, simply loosen the limit bolt 303, slide shelf 3 up and down, and then tighten it again after it reaches the target position. If the number of shelf 3 needs to be increased, the new shelf 3 can be slid in from the top in the same way and fixed in the appropriate shelf positioning hole 201 position to achieve flexible expansion.

[0028] After installation, the top of the combined back panel 21 has an open connecting ear plate 211, which can be used to install monitoring equipment such as cameras to adapt to unmanned supermarkets.

[0029] In this utility model, the unique design of the detachable combination back panel 21 and connecting ear plate 211 enables free expansion of the shelf height. Combined with the sliding connection structure of the limiting slot 202 and the limiting block 301, the installation of the shelf 3 is more convenient and stable. At the same time, the shelf height can be precisely adjusted by using the fixing method of the shelf positioning hole 201 and the limiting bolt 303. The whole system supports quick disassembly and flexible adjustment and can be freely combined according to the size of the goods and display needs. This not only reduces the difficulty of installation and maintenance, but also effectively adapts to the diverse display needs in the unmanned supermarket scenario, significantly improving space utilization and operational efficiency.

[0030] Please see Figure 1 and 3 The combined back panel 21 has a weight reduction groove 213, and a breathable mesh 214 is connected to the inner wall of the weight reduction groove 213.

[0031] In this utility model, the combined back panel 21 is provided with a weight-reducing groove 213. This structure effectively reduces the overall weight of the shelf by removing excess material while maintaining structural strength. The breathable mesh 214 installed on the inner wall of the weight-reducing groove 213 forms a ventilation channel, which not only helps the air circulation inside the shelf, but also prevents the goods from getting damp. It is especially suitable for storing food products that require ventilation. This design achieves a perfect combination of lightweight and functionality while ensuring load-bearing performance.

[0032] Please see Figure 1 , 2 4, wherein: a support sloping plate 304 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the shelf panel 3, and the back of the support sloping plate 304 is in contact with the shelf back panel 2.

[0033] In this utility model, the support inclined plate 304 added to the bottom of the shelf panel 3 adopts an inclined design, and its back is closely attached to the shelf back panel 2 to form a stable triangular support structure. This design significantly enhances the load-bearing capacity of the shelf and effectively prevents the shelf from deforming due to excessive weight of goods.

[0034] Please see Figure 1 , 2 4, wherein: the shelf panel 3 is provided with equally spaced through slots 305, the bottom of the through slots 305 extending through and to the bottom of the shelf panel 3.

[0035] In this utility model, the equidistantly arranged through slots 305 on the shelf panel 3 penetrate the upper and lower surfaces of the shelf panel, forming a complete ventilation channel, enhancing air convection between the shelves, improving the storage environment of goods, effectively reducing the weight of the shelves, and facilitating handling and installation. Furthermore, the through slot 305 structure can serve as a cable routing channel, facilitating the installation of lighting or electronic price tags and other equipment, thus meeting the wiring needs of smart retail.

[0036] Please see Figure 1-3 The side of the combined back plate 21 is provided with evenly distributed scale lines 216.

[0037] In this invention, the carefully designed uniform scale markings 216 on the side of the combined back panel 21 provide a precise positioning reference for the installation of the shelving. These markings not only make it easier for construction workers to quickly determine the installation position of the shelves, but also ensure the height consistency of the multi-layer shelving.

[0038] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model; however, the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model, based on the technical solution and its improved concept, should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
