[0025] The following description is intended to disclose this application and enable those skilled in the art to implement it. The preferred embodiments described below are merely examples, and other obvious variations will occur to those skilled in the art. The basic principles of this application defined in the following description can be applied to other embodiments, modifications, improvements, equivalents, and other technical solutions that do not depart from the spirit and scope of this application.

[0026] Those skilled in the art should understand that, in the disclosure of this application, the terms "longitudinal," "lateral," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, the above terms should not be construed as limitations on this application.

[0027] It is understood that the term "a" should be understood as "at least one" or "one or more", that is, in one embodiment, the number of an element can be one, while in another embodiment, the number of the element can be multiple, and the term "a" should not be understood as a limitation on the number.

[0028] refer to Figures 1 to 6 A preferred embodiment of the distributed clamping trailer for transporting sheet metal, according to this application, will be described in detail below. The distributed clamping trailer for transporting sheet metal is used to transport sheet metal.

[0029] Specifically, the distributed clamping trailer for transporting sheet metal includes a loading platform 10, a support mechanism 20, a mounting mechanism 30, at least one securing mechanism 40, and multiple rollers 50. The sheet metal is placed on the upper surface of the loading platform 10 so that the loading platform 10 supports the sheet metal. The rollers 50 are rotatably mounted on the loading platform 10 and in contact with the ground; when the rollers 50 rotate, the distributed clamping trailer for transporting sheet metal moves relative to the ground.

[0030] The support mechanism 20 includes at least one support component 21, which extends vertically such that it forms a low end and a high end above the low end. The low end of the support component 21 is connected to one end of the loading platform 10, and the mounting mechanism 30 is connected to the high end of the support component 21.

[0031] refer to Figure 2Each of the aforementioned securing mechanisms 40 includes a clamping member 41 and a lifting assembly 42. The lifting assembly 42 is mounted on the mounting mechanism 30, and the clamping member 41 is connected to the lifting assembly 42, with the clamping member 41 facing the loading platform 10. The lifting assembly 42 is configured to drive the clamping member 41 to move vertically. When the lifting assembly 42 drives the clamping member 41 downward, the clamping member 41 approaches the upper surface of the plate carried by the loading platform 10 until the two abut against each other. The clamping member 41 presses down on the plate to secure it, thereby preventing the plate from shifting or falling due to bumps during transport by the distributed clamping trailer used for transporting the plate. When the lifting assembly 42 drives the clamping member 41 upward, the clamping member 41 moves away from the upper surface of the plate carried by the loading platform 10 to release the plate.

[0032] Preferably, the upper surface of the loading platform 10 is formed with anti-slip texture to increase the friction of the upper surface of the loading platform 10, thereby improving the stability of the plate placement.

[0033] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 In one embodiment, each of the support components 21 includes a first support column 211 and a second support column 212. The second support column 212 is connected to the loading platform 10, and the mounting mechanism 30 is connected to the first support column 211. The first support column 211 is slidably mounted on the second support column 212, so that the first support column 211 can drive the mounting mechanism 30 to move up and down, thereby adjusting the height of the fixing mechanism 40, so that the fixing mechanism 40 can fix plates of different heights.

[0034] In other words, the height of the material fixing mechanism 40 can be greatly adjusted by the vertical movement of the first support column 211, so that the height of the material fixing mechanism 40 can quickly match the height of the plate carried by the loading platform 10; then the lifting component 42 drives the clamping component 41 to move slightly vertically to fix the plate.

[0035] Preferably, the mounting mechanism 30 extends horizontally and is located above the loading platform 10. When the first support column 211 moves downward, the mounting mechanism 30 simultaneously approaches the upper surface of the plate, thereby limiting the vertical movement of the plate by the mounting mechanism 30 above the plate.

[0036] Furthermore, each of the support mechanisms 20 also includes a fixing member 22. The fixing member 22 is used to fix the first support column 211 and the second support column 212.

[0037] In one embodiment, the second support post 212 forms a sliding channel and a mounting hole communicating with the sliding channel, wherein the sliding channel extends vertically and the mounting hole extends horizontally. The first support post 211 is slidably inserted into the sliding channel formed by the second support post 212. The first support post 211 forms a plurality of first threaded holes 21101 at intervals along the vertical direction, and the outer peripheral wall of the fixing member 22 forms an external thread. The fixing member 22 passes through the mounting hole and is threadedly installed in any of the first threaded holes 21101.

[0038] Specifically, when the fixing member 22 rotates to thread one end of the first support column 211 into any of the first threaded holes 21101 formed by the first support column 211, the second support column 212 and the first support column 211 are fixed by the fixing member 22. When the fixing member 22 rotates to pull one end of the first support column 211 out of the first threaded hole 21101 formed by the first support column 211, the second support column 212 can slide relative to the first support column 211, thereby adjusting the height of the mounting mechanism 30 and the fixing mechanism 40.

[0039] Furthermore, the loading platform 10 forms a front end and a rear end along the forward direction of the distributed clamping trailer used for transporting the sheet metal. The first support column 211 is mounted on the front end of the loading platform 10, such that the support assembly 21 blocks the sheet metal in the forward direction to prevent material from sliding out of the front end of the loading platform 10 during braking.

[0040] Preferably, the distributed clamping trailer for transporting sheet metal includes a plurality of the securing mechanisms 40, with at least one securing mechanism 40 located at the end of the mounting mechanism 30 away from the support assembly 21 to limit the end of the sheet metal away from the support assembly 21 to prevent the sheet metal from sliding off the rear end of the loading platform 10 during startup.

[0041] refer to Figure 2 In a preferred embodiment, the lifting assembly 42 includes a connecting rod 421 and a mounting nut 422, wherein the mounting nut 422 is fixedly mounted to the mounting mechanism 30, the connecting rod 421 extends vertically, and the outer peripheral wall of the connecting rod 421 forms an external thread. The connecting rod 421 is threadedly connected to the mounting nut 422, and the clamping member 41 is mounted on one end of the connecting rod 421 facing the loading platform 10. When the connecting rod 421 rotates relative to the mounting nut 422, the connecting rod 421 drives the clamping member 41 to move vertically.

[0042] It is understood that when the mounting mechanism 30 forms a second threaded hole extending vertically, and the connecting rod 421 is threaded into the second threaded hole, the lifting assembly 42 may not need to be equipped with the mounting nut 422. When the connecting rod 421 rotates within the second threaded hole, the connecting rod 421 drives the clamping member 41 to move vertically, which can also achieve the effect of adjusting the height of the clamping member 41.

[0043] As an example, the clamping component 41 is implemented as a suction cup. When the clamping component 41 presses down on the upper surface of the plate, the suction cup adheres to the upper surface of the plate through negative pressure, thereby fixing the plate. Since the suction cup is usually made of elastic material, when the lifting component 42 drives the suction cup to press down on the plate, a flexible connection is formed between the suction cup and the plate to avoid deformation of the plate due to excessive pressure.

[0044] In one embodiment, the mounting mechanism 30 is connected to the support component 21 by welding or other means.

[0045] refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 In another embodiment, the support assembly 21 further includes a connecting column 213 connected to the second support column 212, and the axial direction of the connecting column 213 is parallel to the horizontal direction perpendicular to the forward direction of the distributed clamping trailer used for transporting the sheet metal. The mounting mechanism 30 forms a mounting channel 301, the connecting column 213 is inserted into the mounting channel 301, and the mounting mechanism 30 is rotatable about the axial direction of the connecting column 213 to adjust the posture of the mounting mechanism 30.

[0046] Specifically, when the mounting mechanism 30 rotates to a position where its end away from the support assembly 21 is close to the loading platform 10, the mounting mechanism 30 is folded to facilitate the storage of the distributed clamping trailer used for transporting the sheet metal. When the mounting mechanism 30 rotates to a position where its end away from the support assembly 21 is above the support assembly 21, the mounting mechanism 30 is unfolded, allowing it to move away from above the loading platform 10 to move the sheet metal off or onto the loading platform 10. When the mounting mechanism 30 rotates to a horizontal position, the mounting mechanism 30 and the securing mechanism 40 limit the vertical movement of the sheet metal.

[0047] Furthermore, the distributed clamping trailer for transporting sheet metal also includes fixing screws 60.

[0048] The mounting mechanism 30 also forms a third threaded hole perpendicular to the extension direction of the mounting channel 301. The fixing screw 60 is threaded into the third threaded hole formed by the mounting mechanism 30, and one end of the fixing screw 60 extending into the mounting channel 301 can be close to or away from the outer peripheral wall of the connecting post 213.

[0049] When the fixing screw 60 is rotated so that one end extending into the mounting channel 301 abuts against the outer peripheral wall of the connecting post 213, the mounting mechanism 30 and the support assembly 21 are secured by the fixing screw 60. When the fixing screw 60 is rotated so that one end extending into the mounting channel 301 separates from the outer peripheral wall of the connecting post 213, the mounting mechanism 30 can rotate relative to the connecting post 213.

[0050] Preferably, the support mechanism 20 further includes a baffle 23, which is mounted on the support assembly 21 to block the movement of the sheet material from the forward direction of the distributed clamping trailer used for transporting the sheet material.

[0051] Furthermore, the distributed clamping trailer for transporting sheet metal also includes hooks 70.

[0052] The hook 70 is installed at the front end of the loading platform 10 and is adapted to the hook of the tractor, so that the distributed clamping trailer for transporting the sheet metal can be used in conjunction with the tractor.

[0053] refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 Furthermore, the distributed clamping trailer for transporting sheet metal also includes a folding mechanism 80.

[0054] The folding mechanism 80 includes a mounting base 81, a snap-fit ​​member 82, and a resetting member 83. The mounting base 81 is mounted on the upper surface of the loading platform 10, and the support assembly 21 is rotatably connected to the mounting base 81. The mounting base 81 forms a snap-fit ​​groove 8101, the snap-fit ​​member 82 snaps into the snap-fit ​​groove 8101, and the snap-fit ​​member 82 is movably sleeved onto the support assembly 21 along its extending direction. The resetting member 83 connects the support assembly 21 and the snap-fit ​​member 82. When the snap-fit ​​member 82 moves upward to move out of the snap-fit ​​groove 8101, the resetting member 83 undergoes elastic deformation and tends to drive the snap-fit ​​member 82 downward.

[0055] Specifically, when the latching member 82 moves upward along the extension direction of the support assembly 21 to disengage from the latching slot 8101, the reset member 83 undergoes elastic deformation. At this time, the support assembly 21 can rotate relative to the mounting base 81. When the support assembly 21 rotates to a horizontal state and is located above the loading platform 10, the distributed clamping trailer for transporting the sheet metal is folded. During the rotation of the support assembly 21 from a horizontal state to a vertical state, when the latching member 82 rotates to correspond with the latching slot 8101, the latching member 82 moves downward under the elastic force of the reset member 83, so that the latching member 82 and the mounting base 81 are engaged. In this way, the angle of the support assembly 21 is fixed, so that the operator can push and pull the support assembly 21.

[0056] As an example, the reset element 83 is implemented as a spring.

[0057] Furthermore, the folding mechanism 80 also includes a rotating member 84. The rotating member 84 is rotatably mounted on the mounting base 81, and when the snap-fit ​​member 82 is engaged with the snap-fit ​​groove 8101, the snap-fit ​​member 82 is partially located on the rotation path of one end of the rotating member 84. In this way, when the rotating member 84 is rotated by force, the rotating member 84 pushes the snap-fit ​​member 82 out of the snap-fit ​​groove 8101, so as to facilitate the switching state of the support assembly 21.

[0058] Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments of this application described above and shown in the accompanying drawings are merely examples and do not limit the scope of this application. The advantages of this application have been fully and effectively implemented. The functional and structural principles of this application have been demonstrated and explained in the embodiments, and any variations or modifications can be made to the implementation of this application without departing from the stated principles.
