Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of shelving technology, and more specifically, to a rapid positioning and assembly mechanism for shelving. Background Technology
[0002] Shelving is a rack-like structural device used to store goods. It is an indispensable basic equipment in warehousing, logistics, and retail scenarios. By vertically expanding storage space, it effectively utilizes the height of warehouses or stores, significantly increasing the amount of goods stored per unit area. It also allows for the classification and layering of goods, making it easier for staff to quickly find, retrieve, and inventory items, thus improving operational efficiency.
[0003] The existing shelving adopts a modular assembly method. The shelving is mainly composed of standardized modules such as uprights, support beams, shelves, and connectors. All components are prefabricated in the factory. In the assembly process, the uprights are first fixed, and then the uprights are connected to the ground or support beam brackets through connectors. Next, the support beams are installed, and the two ends of the support beams are snapped into or bolted to the designated holes in the uprights. Finally, the shelves are laid to complete the overall structure.
[0004] The support beams and side panels of the shelving are connected to the shelving uprights using snap-fit connections. This involves multiple equally spaced snap holes on the side wall of the shelving upright. Workers snap the side panels into the appropriate height as needed, leaving a gap between the support beams and shelves between the two side panels, and then snapping the support beams into the side wall of the upright. However, the support beams and side panels are usually positioned using two sets of holes, which can easily lead to assembly errors and height differences after installation, affecting the overall flatness and stability of the shelving. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a quick positioning and assembly mechanism for shelves.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a quick positioning and assembly mechanism for a shelf, comprising a shelf assembly and multiple sets of snap-fit components installed on both sides of the shelf assembly, wherein each set of snap-fit components is provided with a separator component on its top.
[0007] The shelving assembly includes two uprights and a plurality of side panels located between the two uprights, wherein each pair of side panels forms a group and is arranged opposite to each other.
[0008] Each set of the snap-fit assembly includes two support beams, which are correspondingly arranged with two columns. The support beams are located on the side walls of the corresponding columns. Each column has multiple snap holes on both sides. The end of the support beam near the column is connected to multiple second snaps, which snap into the corresponding snap holes. Each side plate has multiple first snaps equidistantly connected on both sides, which are inserted into the corresponding snap holes. Each second snap has a fixing block connected to its side wall, and the fixing block fits against the side wall of the corresponding first snap.
[0009] The present invention is further configured such that: the shelf assembly also includes a base frame, the base frame is connected to two uprights, and the two lowest sets of partition components are attached to the top of the base frame.
[0010] The present invention is further configured such that: the bottom of the side of the support beam near the column is configured as a trapezoidal structure, and multiple second buckles on each support beam are arranged vertically on the side wall of the trapezoidal structure.
[0011] The present invention is further configured such that each of the fixing blocks has an inclined portion on the side near the column.
[0012] The present invention is further configured such that: each group of the separating components includes a shelf that is snapped onto the top of the corresponding two snapping components, and a crossbar is connected to the side of the shelf away from the column.
[0013] The present invention is further configured such that: a stepped groove is provided on the side wall of the support beam, and one of the second buckles on the side wall of the support beam is located above the stepped groove.
[0014] The present invention is further configured such that: the side wall of the support beam is connected with a reinforcing rib groove, and the top of the support beam away from the column is provided with a groove, and one side of the shelf is inserted into the groove.
[0015] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: (1) By having the second buckle of the support beam and the first buckle of the side plate share the same set of column buckle holes, the height positioning benchmarks of the two are consistent. The staff does not need to align the two sets of holes separately, saving the measurement and calibration steps. This fundamentally avoids assembly errors and height differences caused by different hole benchmarks, ensuring the overall flatness and stability of the rack, while improving the assembly speed.
[0016] (2) The second buckle sidewall of the support beam is provided with a fixing block and an inclined part. During the insertion of the buckle into the buckle hole, the inclined part plays a guiding role, and the fixing block simultaneously squeezes the first buckle that is already in the buckle hole, which reduces the insertion resistance of the second buckle, improves the assembly efficiency, and eliminates the play of the first buckle in the buckle hole, preventing the side plate from swaying laterally, so that the first buckle and the second buckle can be stably matched in the same buckle hole, further enhancing the stability of the overall structure of the rack.

Detailed Implementation
[0023] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0024] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used in this application have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application pertains.
[0025] Please see Figures 1-5 The present invention provides the following technical solution: Example 1, see Figure 1 and Figure 2A quick positioning and assembly mechanism for a shelving unit includes a shelving assembly 1. The shelving assembly 1 includes two uprights 11 and a plurality of side panels 13 located between the two uprights 11. Each pair of side panels 13 forms a group and is arranged opposite to each other. The shelving assembly 1 also includes a base frame 12, which is connected to the two uprights 11. The base frame 12 and the two uprights 11 cooperate to form the main body of the shelving unit. The side panels 13 are used to separate the gap between the two uprights 11, so that the shelving unit has a double-sided structure.
[0026] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 Each column 11 has multiple locking holes 15 on both sides, and each side plate 13 has multiple first buckles 14 equidistantly connected to both sides. The first buckles 14 are inserted into the corresponding locking holes 15. The first buckles 14 are L-shaped. That is, when the side plate 13 is positioned on the side wall of the column 11, the worker only needs to insert the first buckle 14 into the corresponding locking hole 15 and place it downward. The side plate 13 moves downward due to gravity, causing the first buckle 14 to hang inside the corresponding locking hole 15, thereby completing the positioning and installation of the side plate 13.
[0027] See Figure 1 Multiple sets of partition components 2 are provided on both sides of the shelf assembly 1. The partition components 2 are used to divide the two sides of the shelf to form a multi-layer shelf structure, which facilitates the placement of goods. The specific structure of the partition components 2 is as follows: See Figure 1 Each set of partition components 2 includes a shelf 22. The side of the shelf 22 away from the upright 11 is connected to a crossbeam 21. The two lowest sets of partition components 2 are attached to the top of the base frame 12. The crossbeam 21 and the shelf 22 are the main body of the partition layer. Multiple shelves 22 are divided as needed. After the partition components 2 are installed, they can form a stable overall structure with the main body of the rack, further improving the load-bearing capacity and safety of the rack.
[0028] See Figures 2-5 Multiple sets of snap-fit components 3 are installed on both sides of the shelf assembly 1. The snap-fit components 3 are used to snap-fit and position the side panels 13 onto the uprights 11. A gap is reserved between two adjacent side panels 13 for placing the partition components 2. Each partition component 2 is positioned on the side wall of the uprights 11 through the snap-fit components 3.
[0029] The specific structure of the snap-fit component 3 is as follows: See Figures 2-5Each set of snap-fit components 3 includes two support beams 31, which are correspondingly set with two columns 11. The support beams 31 are located on the side wall of the corresponding column 11. The shelf 22 is snapped onto the top of the two corresponding support beams 31. The top of the support beam 31 away from the column 11 has a groove 36. One side of the shelf 22 is inserted into the groove 36. The end of the support beam 31 near the column 11 is connected to multiple second buckles 33. The second buckles 33 are snapped into the holes of the corresponding buckle holes 15. That is, the buckle holes 15 into which the second buckles 33 are snapped already contain the first buckles 14. This setting can ensure that the height positioning reference of the support beam 31 and the side plate 13 is consistent. The workers do not need to align the two different buckle hole positions 15 separately. They can directly use the same set of buckle hole positions 15 as a reference to complete the installation, reducing measurement and calibration steps and improving the assembly speed.
[0030] See Figures 2-5 The bottom of the support beam 31 near the column 11 is set as a trapezoidal structure. Multiple second buckles 33 on each support beam 31 are arranged vertically on the side wall of the trapezoidal structure. The trapezoidal structure can enhance the support strength of the support beam 31. At the same time, a reinforcing rib groove 32 is connected to the side wall of the support beam 31. The reinforcing rib groove 32 further enhances the bending strength of the support beam 31.
[0031] See Figures 2-5 A stepped groove 37 is provided on the side wall of the support beam 31. One of the second buckles 33 on the side wall of the support beam 31 is located above the stepped groove 37. The stepped groove 37 separates the multiple second buckles 33 on the side wall of the support beam 31. That is, the uppermost second buckle 33 is used to snap the support beam 31 onto the column 11, while the second buckle 33 below the stepped groove 37, while ensuring that the support beam 31 and the column 11 are snapped together, can also cooperate with the trapezoidal structure to play an auxiliary support and positioning role.
[0032] When the second buckle 33 is inserted into the hole 15 where the first buckle 14 already exists, the side plate 13 may wobble laterally due to the play of the first buckle 14 inside the hole 15, since the first buckle 14 has already occupied the space of the hole 15. Furthermore, when the second buckle 33 is inserted into the same hole 15, there will be insertion resistance, and the insertion efficiency will decrease. The staff needs to manually adjust the position of the side plate 13 to complete the assembly.
[0033] See Figures 2-5Therefore, a fixing block 34 is connected to the side wall of each second buckle 33. The fixing block 34 fits against the side wall of the corresponding first buckle 14. Each fixing block 34 has an inclined part 35 on the side near the column 11. When the second buckle 33 is inserted into the buckle hole 15, the fixing block 34 and the inclined part 35 cooperate to squeeze the first buckle 14 and guide it with the inclined surface of the inclined part 35. When the second buckle 33 is inserted into the corresponding buckle hole 15, the fixing block 34 maintains the squeezing state of the first buckle 14, so that the first buckle 14 and the second buckle 33 can be stably placed in the same buckle hole 15.
[0034] Specifically, the fixing block 34 and the inclined part 35 are used for auxiliary guidance so that the second buckle 33 keeps pressing the first buckle 14 when it is inserted. During the insertion process, there is always space inside the buckle hole 15 that can be inserted, reducing insertion resistance and improving insertion efficiency.
[0035] Obviously, the embodiments described above are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
