Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of placement rack technology, and in particular to a placement rack for foam product molds. Background Technology

[0002] In the manufacturing process of foam products, molds are core production components, and their storage and management have a crucial impact on production efficiency, mold maintenance, and workshop space utilization. With the rapid development of the foam products industry and the continuous expansion of enterprise production scale, the types and quantities of molds are increasing, placing higher demands on the functionality and practicality of mold storage racks.

[0003] Existing foam product mold placement racks have many drawbacks in practical applications. From the perspective of structural stability, some racks use simple frame support structures and lack effective reinforcement measures, such as the absence of connecting rods and reinforcing ribs. When bearing large and heavy molds, the frame is prone to shaking, deformation, or even collapse, which not only damages the molds but also poses serious safety hazards. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the above problems, this utility model provides a placement rack for foam product molds.

[0005] To solve the above problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A placement rack for foam product molds includes: two sets of first vertical rods, two second vertical rods, multiple horizontal rods, a first plate, multiple slide rails, and a second plate; the two sets of first vertical rods are arranged in parallel, and the two second vertical rods are arranged in parallel; the two sets of first vertical rods and the two second vertical rods are fixedly connected by multiple horizontal rods; the first plate is fixedly installed on the horizontal rods; multiple slide rails are installed at the bottom of the two sets of first vertical rods and the two second vertical rods; and the second plate is movably installed between the multiple slide rails.

[0007] Preferably, each group of first vertical bars includes two first vertical bars.

[0008] Preferably, the two sets of first vertical rods are fixedly connected by a connecting rod.

[0009] Preferably, multiple reinforcing ribs are provided between the two first vertical bars in each group.

[0010] Preferably, the height of the two second vertical rods is lower than the height of the first vertical rod.

[0011] Preferably, the plurality of crossbars are fixedly connected between two second vertical bars and two sets of first vertical bars.

[0012] Preferably, the plurality of slide rails are distributed in parallel at the bottom of the two sets of first vertical rods and the two sets of second vertical rods.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] 1. A rectangular frame is formed by two sets of first vertical bars and two sets of second vertical bars, combined with multiple reinforcement designs including horizontal bars, connecting bars, and reinforcing ribs, to construct a stable mechanical support system. The connecting bars between the two sets of first vertical bars effectively prevent lateral displacement, the reinforcing ribs within the vertical bar sets improve compressive and torsional resistance, and the design of the second vertical bars being lower than the first vertical bars lowers the center of gravity, enabling the entire frame to stably support heavy molds, preventing deformation or tipping, and meeting the strength requirements for mold storage equipment in industrial production.

[0015] 2. The parallel sliding rails at the bottom and the movable second plate form a sliding storage structure. Operators can directly pull out the second plate along the rails, allowing for convenient storage and retrieval of molds without bending over or climbing, significantly improving work efficiency. Simultaneously, the staggered vertical bar design creates a layered storage space for the first and second plates, allowing for layered placement according to mold specifications. This fully utilizes three-dimensional space and facilitates categorized management based on usage needs, optimizing the spatial planning and retrieval convenience of mold storage in the workshop.

Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the stated features. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified. Furthermore, the terms "installed," "connected," and "linked" should be interpreted broadly; for example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal connection of two components.

[0023] Reference Figure 1-3 A placement rack for foam product molds comprises two sets of first vertical rods 1 and two sets of second vertical rods 3 forming a basic support. Each set of first vertical rods 1 includes two first vertical rods 1, which are arranged in parallel to form a stable longitudinal support structure. To further enhance overall stability, the two sets of first vertical rods 1 are fixedly connected by sturdy connecting rods to ensure that the frame will not undergo lateral displacement or deformation when bearing the weight of the mold. Simultaneously, multiple reinforcing ribs 2 are provided between the two first vertical rods 1 in each set. These reinforcing ribs 2 are distributed in a crisscross or parallel manner, effectively improving the compressive strength and torsional resistance of individual vertical rod sets, enabling the entire placement rack to withstand heavy foam product molds without easily being damaged.

[0024] The two second vertical bars 3 are arranged in parallel, and their height is lower than that of the first vertical bar 1. This design not only makes the space utilization of the rack more rational, facilitating operators to access molds from different heights, but also lowers the center of gravity of the rack to a certain extent, enhancing overall stability. The two sets of first vertical bars 1 and the two sets of second vertical bars 3 are fixedly connected by multiple horizontal bars 4. The multiple horizontal bars 4 are evenly distributed and fixedly connected between the two sets of second vertical bars 3 and the two sets of first vertical bars 1, forming a stable rectangular frame structure, providing good lateral support for the rack, and further ensuring the stability and reliability of the rack during use.

[0025] A first plate 5 is fixedly installed on the crossbar 4. The first plate 5 is made of high-strength, wear-resistant sheet material with a smooth and flat surface, providing a stable and safe placement plane for the foam product mold. The dimensions of the first plate 5 are adapted to the distribution of the crossbar 4 and can be rationally designed according to the size and weight of the mold to ensure that it can support molds of different specifications.

[0026] Multiple slide rails 6 are installed at the bottom of the two sets of first vertical rods 1 and two sets of second vertical rods 3. These slide rails 6 are distributed in parallel, providing sliding tracks for the second plate 7. The second plate 7 is movably installed between the slide rails 6 and is designed to slide freely. Operators can easily pull the second plate 7 out or push it in along the slide rails 6 as needed. When it is necessary to access a mold placed on the second plate 7, simply pull out the second plate 7 for convenient operation, greatly improving the convenience and efficiency of mold access. The second plate 7 is also made of high-strength material, possessing excellent load-bearing capacity to meet the needs of placing molds of different weights.

[0027] Through the rational design and combination of the above components, this foam product mold placement rack has the advantages of stable structure, strong load-bearing capacity, and convenient storage and retrieval. It can effectively improve the storage and management efficiency of foam product molds and is an indispensable practical tool in the foam product production process.

[0028] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
