Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of luggage conveying equipment, and in particular to a luggage conveying buffer device. Background Technology

[0002] In airport terminal baggage handling systems, luggage is transported to baggage carousels via inclined conveyor belts. Due to gravity and the slope, suitcases often slide down at high speeds, posing a risk of hitting the end of the carousel or even sliding off.

[0003] Currently, many airports have installed simple fixed barriers at this location. The main function of these barriers is to contain and prevent luggage from sliding off the carousel. However, these fixed barriers cannot effectively cushion the impact of luggage. When luggage hits at high speed, the huge impact force can easily damage the luggage and its contents, and at the same time generate loud impact noise, affecting the terminal environment. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a luggage transport buffer device to solve the problem that the fixed baffles in the existing luggage transport system of airport terminals cannot effectively buffer the impact force of luggage. The huge impact force can easily damage the luggage body and its contents, and at the same time generate violent impact noise, affecting the terminal environment.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a luggage conveying buffer device, which includes a height-adjustable bracket, a top plate, two sliding guide rails, two sliding seats, a sliding platform, multiple rubber buffer wheels, and multiple spring buffer assemblies. The top plate is provided at the top of the height-adjustable bracket. The sliding guide rails are provided on both sides of the upper surface of the top plate. A sliding seat is slidably mounted on each sliding guide rail. The sliding platform is installed between the upper surfaces of two sliding seats. Multiple rubber buffer wheels are rotatably mounted on the upper surface of the sliding platform. The multiple rubber buffer wheels are evenly distributed on the upper surface of the sliding platform. The contact surface between each rubber buffer wheel and the luggage extends to the outside of the sliding platform on the side facing the luggage carousel. The upper surface of the top plate is also fixedly provided with a plurality of first fixing blocks, each of which is located on the side of the top plate away from the luggage turntable. The bottom of the sliding platform is fixedly provided with a plurality of second fixing blocks, each of which corresponds to one of the second fixing blocks. The spring buffer assembly is provided between each of the first fixing blocks and the corresponding second fixing block.

[0006] Each of the spring buffer assemblies includes a sliding rod and a buffer spring body. One end of the sliding rod is fixedly connected to the first fixed block, and the other end of the sliding rod is connected to the upper surface of the top plate. A second fixed block is slidably disposed at the end of each sliding rod away from the corresponding first fixed block. The buffer spring body is disposed outside the sliding rod, with one end of the buffer spring body connected to the first fixed block and the other end of the buffer spring body connected to the second fixed block.

[0007] Each of the buffer spring bodies has a first connecting ring and a second connecting ring at both ends. The first connecting ring is connected to the first fixing block, and the second connecting ring is connected to the second fixing block.

[0008] The height-adjustable bracket includes a fixed base, a fixed arm, a sliding arm, and a fixing pin. The fixed arm is fixedly mounted on the upper surface at the center of the fixed base. The sliding arm is slidably mounted inside the fixed arm at the end away from the fixed base. The top plate is mounted on the sliding arm at the end away from the fixed arm. Multiple mounting holes are provided through the fixed arm and the sliding arm. The fixing pin is adapted to the mounting holes.

[0009] Each of the fixing pins includes a mounting plate, two insert rods, and two fixing nuts. One side of the mounting plate is provided with a pull ring, and both ends of the other side of the mounting plate are fixedly provided with the insert rods. The insert rods are adapted to the fixing holes. The end of each insert rod away from the mounting plate is provided with a threaded part, and the fixing nuts are adapted to the threaded part.

[0010] The top plate is also equipped with a protective cover, which is located outside the plurality of rubber buffer wheels. The protective cover has an opening on the side facing the luggage carousel, and the periphery of the rubber buffer wheels extends to the outside of the opening.

[0011] This utility model discloses a luggage conveying buffer device, comprising a height-adjustable bracket, a top plate, two sliding guide rails, two sliding seats, a sliding platform, multiple rubber buffer wheels, and multiple spring buffer assemblies. The height-adjustable bracket flexibly adapts to the installation requirements of luggage carousels of different sizes. The sliding platform on top and the evenly distributed rubber buffer wheels form a first buffer contact surface. Furthermore, the sliding platform, through the cooperation of the sliding seats on both sides and the guide rails on the top plate, can slide backward under impact, driving the second fixed block at the bottom to compress the connected spring buffer assemblies, converting the kinetic energy of the luggage into elastic potential energy, achieving a smooth and gradual second-level buffer. This structure significantly attenuates the impact force, avoiding rigid collisions between the luggage and the device, thereby significantly reducing the risk of damage to the luggage and its contents due to severe impacts. Simultaneously, it effectively suppresses noise generated by impacts, improving the environmental comfort of the terminal building. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0018] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0019] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This utility model provides a luggage conveying buffer device, which includes a height-adjustable bracket, a top plate 101, two sliding guide rails 102, two sliding seats 103, a sliding platform 104, multiple rubber buffer wheels 105, and multiple spring buffer assemblies. The top plate 101 is provided at the top of the height-adjustable bracket. The sliding guide rails 102 are provided on both sides of the upper surface of the top plate 101. Each sliding guide rail 102 is slidably provided with a sliding seat 103. The sliding platform 104 is installed between the upper surfaces of the two sliding seats 103. Multiple rubber buffer wheels 105 are rotatably provided on the upper surface of the sliding platform 104. The multiple rubber buffer wheels 105 are evenly distributed on the upper surface of the sliding platform 104. The contact surface between each rubber buffer wheel 105 and the luggage extends to the outside of the side of the sliding platform 104 facing the luggage turntable. The upper surface of the top plate 101 is also fixedly provided with a plurality of first fixing blocks 106, each of the first fixing blocks 106 being located on the side of the top plate 101 away from the luggage carousel. The bottom of the sliding platform 104 is fixedly provided with a plurality of second fixing blocks 107, each of the first fixing blocks 106 corresponding to one of the second fixing blocks 107. The spring buffer assembly is provided between each of the first fixing blocks 106 and the corresponding second fixing block 107.

[0020] In this embodiment, the height-adjustable bracket can flexibly adapt to the installation requirements of baggage carousels of different specifications. The sliding platform 104 on its top and the evenly distributed rubber buffer wheels 105 form a first buffer contact surface. Furthermore, the sliding platform 104, through the cooperation of the sliding seats 103 on both sides and the guide rails on the top plate 101, can slide backward under the impact force, driving the second fixing block 107 at the bottom to compress the spring buffer assembly connected to it, converting the kinetic energy of the suitcase into elastic potential energy, and realizing a smooth and gradual second-level buffer. Through the above structure, the impact force is greatly attenuated, avoiding rigid collisions between the suitcase and the device, thereby significantly reducing the risk of damage to the suitcase and its contents due to violent impacts. At the same time, it effectively suppresses the noise generated by the impact and improves the environmental comfort of the terminal.

[0021] Furthermore, each of the spring buffer assemblies includes a sliding rod 108 and a buffer spring body 109. One end of the sliding rod 108 is fixedly connected to the first fixing block 106, and the other end of the sliding rod 108 is connected to the upper surface of the top plate 101. A second fixing block 107 is slidably disposed at the end of each sliding rod 108 away from the corresponding first fixing block 106. The buffer spring body 109 is disposed outside the sliding rod 108. One end of the buffer spring body 109 is connected to the first fixing block 106, and the other end of the buffer spring body 109 is connected to the second fixing block 107.

[0022] In this embodiment, when the suitcase impacts the rubber buffer wheel 105, the sliding platform 104 drives the second fixed block 107 to slide backward along the sliding rod 108, compressing the buffer spring body 109, efficiently converting the impact kinetic energy into the elastic potential energy of the spring, and achieving a smooth and linear buffering effect through the extension and contraction deformation of the spring, significantly absorbing and attenuating the impact force, reducing rebound, thereby effectively protecting the suitcase and reducing noise.

[0023] Furthermore, each of the buffer spring bodies 109 is provided with a first connecting ring 110 and a second connecting ring 111 at both ends. The first connecting ring 110 is connected to the first fixing block 106, and the second connecting ring 111 is connected to the second fixing block 107.

[0024] In this embodiment, the installation of the buffer spring body 109 is facilitated by the arrangement of the first connecting ring 110 and the second connecting ring 111.

[0025] Furthermore, the height-adjustable bracket includes a fixed base 112, a fixed arm 113, a sliding arm 114, and a fixing pin. The fixed arm 113 is fixedly mounted on the upper surface at the center of the fixed base 112. The sliding arm 114 is slidably mounted inside the end of the fixed arm 113 away from the fixed base 112. The top plate 101 is mounted on the end of the sliding arm 114 away from the fixed arm 113. Multiple mounting holes 115 are provided through the fixed arm 113 and the sliding arm 114, and the fixing pin is adapted to the mounting holes 115.

[0026] In this embodiment, by utilizing the sliding arm 114 within the fixed arm 113 and by inserting the fixing pin into the mounting hole 115 at different positions for positioning, the height of the top plate 101 and the entire buffer device can be flexibly and reliably adjusted. This allows the device to quickly adapt to the installation height requirements of different models of luggage carousels, significantly improving the versatility of the equipment and the efficiency of on-site installation.

[0027] Furthermore, each of the fixing pins includes a mounting plate 116, two insert rods 117, and two fixing nuts 118. One side of the mounting plate 116 is provided with a pull ring 119, and both ends of the other side of the mounting plate 116 are fixedly provided with the insert rods 117. The insert rods 117 are adapted to the fixing holes. Each insert rod 117 is provided with a threaded portion 120 at the end away from the mounting plate 116, and the fixing nuts 118 are adapted to the threaded portion 120.

[0028] In this embodiment, the pull ring 119 facilitates quick insertion and removal by the operator. The design of the two insertion rods 117, through insertion into the aligned mounting holes 115 and the locking engagement of the threaded portion 120 with the fixing nut 118, achieves mechanical interlocking between the sliding arm 114 and the fixed arm 113. This ensures the structural rigidity and stability after height adjustment, effectively preventing accidental displacement or loosening that may occur under continuous impact and vibration, and improving the reliability and safety of the equipment during long-term operation.

[0029] Furthermore, a protective cover 121 is also installed on the upper surface of the top plate 101. The protective cover 121 is disposed outside the plurality of rubber buffer wheels 105. The protective cover 121 has an opening 122 on the side facing the luggage carousel, and the periphery of the rubber buffer wheels 105 extends to the outside of the opening 122.

[0030] In this embodiment, the protective cover 121 makes the overall appearance of the device neater.

[0031] The above-disclosed embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can understand that implementing all or part of the above-described embodiments and making equivalent changes in accordance with the claims of the present utility model are still within the scope of the utility model.
