Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hollow shelving, specifically a cylindrical hollow shelving product. Background Technology

[0002] Drive-in racking, also known as pallet racking, is a high-density warehousing system. Its core feature is that forklifts can drive into the aisles inside the racking for storage and retrieval operations, thereby significantly improving space utilization, which can be more than 30% higher than traditional beam racking. By eliminating aisles between rows, it allows goods to be stored continuously along the depth direction on the support rails. It is particularly suitable for goods with a single variety, large batch, and low requirements for picking, such as food, beverage, chemical, and cold storage industries.

[0003] Currently, the hollow shelving used for storing barrels requires placing the barrels on pallets and then placing the pallets on the inside of the shelving to achieve pallet stacking. However, there is a problem in its use: specifically, there is no clear limiting mechanism for the pallets placed on the shelving, and they only rely on the abutment of adjacent pallets for limiting, which results in poor stability for storing barrels. In view of this, the inventor urgently needs to design a limiting mechanism for pallets on hollow shelving to improve the storage stability of barrels. Utility Model Content

[0004] Based on this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a hollow shelf for cylindrical products to solve the technical problem of unstable pallet positioning when storing cylindrical products.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a cylindrical product hollow shelf, including a shelf body, wherein the inner side of the shelf body is supported by mirrored transverse support beams for the lower sides of the pallet, and a plurality of limiting mechanisms are provided on the support beams, with the space between adjacent limiting mechanisms used for placing the pallet; The limiting mechanism includes a first clamp and a second clamp, which are fixedly connected by a slider. A rotating rod is rotatably connected to the side of the second clamp near the tray via a thrust bearing. A limiting rod is bent at the upper end of the rotating rod and abuts against the edge of the tray to limit the position of the tray.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, active mechanical limiting of pallets is achieved. The limiting rod continuously abuts against the edge of the pallet, which fundamentally solves the stability problem of traditional racking that relies on pallets abutting against each other, and significantly reduces the risk of barrels falling due to pallet displacement.

[0007] Furthermore, a groove is provided on the support beam, and the slider is slidably connected inside the groove to adjust the lateral position of the limiting mechanism on the support beam.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the sliding connection structure between the groove and the slider on the support beam allows the limiting mechanism to flexibly adjust its position according to the actual width of the pallet, giving the rack strong adaptability and compatibility with pallets of various specifications, significantly improving the equipment's versatility and space utilization.

[0009] Furthermore, the limiting rod and the rotating rod are in an L-shape, and a counterweight is fixedly installed at the other end of the rotating rod.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the combination of the "L"-shaped rotating rod and the counterweight constitutes an automatic reset system. The counterweight, through gravity, enables the limiting rod to automatically and quickly return to the tilted or vertical limiting state after the tray is placed in, ensuring the reliability and consistency of each operation and improving efficiency.

[0011] Furthermore, the first clamping piece is threaded with a positioning bolt, the end of which abuts against the support beam to fix the limiting mechanism in the lateral position on the support beam.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, a simple and reliable locking mechanism is provided by using positioning bolts. Tightening the bolts so that their ends press against the surface of the support beam allows the limiting mechanism to be firmly locked by friction, effectively preventing it from slipping due to vibration during operation and ensuring the long-term accuracy of the limiting point.

[0013] Furthermore, the second clamping plate is provided with a plurality of mounting holes at equal intervals, and a limit pin is threadedly connected to the inner side of any of the mounting holes to limit the maximum rotation angle of the rotating rod.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the maximum rotation angle of the rotating rod can be adjusted by screwing in the limiting pins in different mounting holes. This can prevent it from swinging excessively due to accidental collisions and protect the mechanism from damage or ineffective limiting.

[0015] Furthermore, the rotating rod, counterweight, and limiting rod are all made of stainless steel.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the key moving parts are made of stainless steel, which greatly enhances corrosion resistance and ensures that the mechanism can operate flexibly for a long time in humid and corrosive environments, thus extending its service life.

[0017] Furthermore, the two support beams in the mirror configuration form a group, and several groups of support beams are installed longitudinally at equal intervals on both sides of the interior of the rack body. The pallet and the barrel are fastened and fixed by straps.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution and using a layout of multiple sets of support beams installed longitudinally at equal intervals, a stable load-bearing structure is formed, which enables the load to be evenly distributed, optimizes the load-bearing capacity of the rack, and achieves efficient use of space.

[0019] In summary, the present invention has the following main advantages: 1. This utility model effectively solves the problem of unstable pallet positioning in traditional drive-in racks through a limiting mechanism. The core of this mechanism lies in its mechanical limiting function: when the pallet is placed in place, the limiting rod automatically resets under the action of the counterweight and firmly abuts against the edge of the pallet, forming a reliable longitudinal constraint. This active limiting method avoids the uncertainty of relying solely on adjacent pallets abutting against each other in the traditional method, and significantly improves the storage stability of pallets and barrels. 2. This utility model can achieve lateral position adjustment through the cooperation of slider and slide groove, so that the shelf can be compatible with pallets of different sizes.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0023] In this embodiment: A type of cylindrical product shelving, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, the shelf body 1 is included. The inner side of the shelf body 1 is supported by a mirrored transverse support beam 2 to support the lower sides of the pallet 3. Several limiting mechanisms 4 are provided on the support beam 2, and the pallet 3 is placed between adjacent limiting mechanisms 4. The limiting mechanism 4 includes a first clamping piece 401 and a second clamping piece 402. The first clamping piece 401 and the second clamping piece 402 are fixedly connected by a slider. The side of the second clamping piece 402 near the pallet 3 is rotatably connected to a rotating rod 406 via a thrust bearing 405. The upper end of the rotating rod 406 is bent to provide a limiting rod 408. The limiting rod 408 abuts against the edge of the pallet 3 to limit the position of the pallet 3, thereby realizing active mechanical limiting of the pallet 3. The limiting rod 408 continuously abuts against the edge of the pallet, fundamentally solving the stability problem of traditional shelves relying on pallets abutting against each other, and significantly reducing the risk of the barrel falling due to pallet displacement. At the same time, the thrust bearing 405 enables the rotating rod to rotate flexibly, allowing the limiting rod to swing and make way when the pallet is placed, and to automatically reset after placement. This achieves flexible contact and automatic limiting, reduces impact wear, and improves operational smoothness and equipment durability.

[0024] See Figure 1 , Figure 4 The support beam 2 has a groove 403, and the slider is slidably connected inside the groove 403 to adjust the lateral position of the limiting mechanism 4 on the support beam 2. The sliding connection structure between the groove 403 on the support beam 2 and the slider allows the limiting mechanism 4 to flexibly adjust its position according to the actual width of the pallet 3, giving the rack a strong adaptability and compatibility with pallets of various specifications. This significantly improves the versatility and space utilization of the equipment. At the same time, this adjustment method is simple in structure and easy to operate. It can be manually adjusted by simply loosening the positioning bolt 404, which greatly reduces the difficulty and time cost of rack layout changes and maintenance, enabling the warehousing system to quickly respond to changes in storage needs.

[0025] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 The limiting rod 408 and the rotating rod 406 are in an "L" shape. A counterweight 407 is fixedly installed at the other end of the rotating rod 406. The combination of the "L" shaped rotating rod 406 and the counterweight 407 constitutes an automatic reset system. The counterweight, through gravity, enables the limiting rod 408 to automatically and quickly return to the tilted or vertical limiting state after the tray 3 is placed in, ensuring the reliability and consistency of each operation and improving efficiency. At the same time, this gravity-based mechanism is stable and maintenance-free, avoiding the problem of fatigue failure of elastic elements and improving long-term reliability. The counterweight 407 also makes the limiting rod maintain a preset tilt angle when stationary, providing clear guidance for the placement of the tray and enhancing operational safety.

[0026] See Figure 1 , Figure 2The first clamping plate 401 is threaded with a positioning bolt 404. The end of the positioning bolt 404 abuts against the support beam 2 to fix the limiting mechanism 4 in the lateral position on the support beam 2. The positioning bolt 404 provides a simple and reliable locking mechanism. Tightening the bolt so that its end abuts against the surface of the support beam 2 can securely lock the limiting mechanism 4 by using friction, effectively preventing it from slipping due to vibration during operation and ensuring the long-term accuracy of the limiting point. At the same time, the threaded connection method is easy to operate, and adjustment and fixing can be quickly completed using conventional tools, which greatly improves the efficiency of debugging and maintenance. This detachable fastening solution gives the rack flexibility and does not damage the support beam structure.

[0027] See Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 The second clamping plate 402 has several mounting holes 409 evenly spaced. A limit pin 410 is threaded into the inner side of any mounting hole 409 to limit the maximum rotation angle of the rotating rod 406. By screwing the limit pin 410 into different mounting holes 409, the maximum rotation angle of the rotating rod 406 can be adjusted. This prevents it from swinging excessively due to accidental collision, protects the mechanism from damage or ineffective limiting, and allows the optimal swing amplitude to be customized according to actual needs such as pallet thickness. This ensures that the pallet is pushed in smoothly and that the limit rod makes good contact after resetting, thus optimizing applicability and safety.

[0028] See Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 The rotating rod 406, counterweight 407, and limit rod 408 are all made of stainless steel. The use of stainless steel for key moving parts greatly enhances corrosion resistance, ensuring that the mechanism can operate flexibly for a long time in humid and corrosive environments, thus extending its service life. At the same time, the high strength and hardness of stainless steel give the parts excellent impact resistance and wear resistance, enabling them to withstand frequent collisions without easily deforming or wearing, maintaining the accuracy and reliability of the mechanism, and reducing maintenance costs and safety risks in the long run.

[0029] See Figure 1 The two support beams 2 in the mirror configuration form a group, and several groups of support beams 2 are installed longitudinally at equal intervals on both sides of the inner side of the rack body 1. The pallet 3 and the barrel are fastened together with straps. The layout of multiple groups of support beams 2 installed longitudinally at equal intervals forms a stable load-bearing structure, which makes the load evenly distributed, optimizes the load-bearing capacity of the rack, and realizes efficient use of space. At the same time, the fact that the pallet 3 and the barrel are fixed together with the straps forms a double insurance with the mechanical limit function: the limit mechanism prevents the pallet from shifting, and the straps prevent the barrel from rolling. Together, they form a complete safety restraint system, which greatly improves storage safety.

[0030] The implementation principle of this embodiment is as follows: The operator loosens the positioning bolt 404 in advance according to the size of the pallet 3, and slides the slider of the limiting mechanism 4 to move it to the predetermined lateral position in the groove 403 of the support beam 2 and then locks it. Under normal conditions, the rotating rod 406 maintains a specific tilting posture on the limiting rod 408 due to the gravity of the counterweight 407. When the forklift delivers the pallet 3, its edge will contact and push the limiting rod 408, causing the rotating rod 406 to rotate freely, avoiding jamming force on the pallet 3. After the pallet 3 is placed in place, under the action of the counterweight 407, the limiting rod 408 resets and continues to abut against the edge of the pallet 3, thereby effectively reducing the probability of the pallet 3 moving after storage. Finally, through the joint action of several limiting mechanisms 4 mirrored on the two side support beams 2, the precise constraint of the position of each pallet 3 is achieved, significantly improving the stability of the barrel storage.
