Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model mainly relates to the field of molds, specifically to a storage rack for molds. Background Technology

[0002] In industrial production, molds are crucial process equipment, widely used in injection molding, die casting, stamping, and other fields. Companies typically need to manage and store large quantities of molds of varying sizes and weights. These molds are often enormous in size and weight, ranging from hundreds of kilograms to several tons, making their storage and management a persistent challenge in factory site management.

[0003] Currently, factories generally use dedicated mold storage racks to store molds, relying on forklifts as the primary handling tool to transport and place the molds into designated locations on the racks. However, this traditional storage method faces a series of technical problems that urgently need to be solved in practice: Positioning difficulties and low operational efficiency: Traditional shelving units are mostly open structures, lacking effective guidance and alignment devices. When forklift drivers place heavy molds into the units, they rely entirely on personal experience and visual estimation for positioning. This process requires repeated fine-tuning and maneuvering, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, demanding extremely high driver skills. The positioning process is even more difficult in confined, poorly lit warehouse environments, severely impacting the storage efficiency of the molds.

[0004] It should be noted that the above content falls within the scope of the inventor's technical knowledge. Due to the vast and complex nature of the technical content in this field, the above content of this application does not necessarily constitute prior art. Utility Model Content

[0019] See attached document Figure 1-3 A mold storage rack includes a storage structure 1, and a mold upward structure 2 is rotatably connected inside the storage structure 1. The number of mold upward structures 2 is set to multiple, and the multiple mold upward structures 2 are evenly distributed on both sides of the inner wall of the storage structure 1. The mold upward structure 2 includes a rotating shaft 201. Two side rings 202 are respectively provided at both ends of the rotating shaft 201. A planar spiral spring 203 is provided on the inner side of the side rings 202. A top plate 204 is provided in the middle of one side of the rotating shaft 201. An adhesive strip 205 is provided on the other side of the rotating shaft 201. A guide groove 206 is provided at the bottom of the adhesive strip 205. When the bottom mold moves upward, the bottom mold pushes the mold of the upper layer to move upward, so that the molds can move upward in sequence. Then the molds pass through the guide groove 206 in sequence and push the rotating shaft 201 to rotate and squeeze the planar spiral spring 203. After the mold has completely passed the adhesive strip 205, the planar spiral spring 203 pushes the rotating shaft 201 to return to its original position, so that the adhesive strip 205 enters directly below the mold to place the mold. Then the mold is stored at the bottom.

[0020] Furthermore, the storage structure 1 includes a housing 101, with a storage compartment 102 inside the housing 101. Moisture-absorbing plates 103 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the storage compartment 102. A mounting ring 104 is provided on one side of the housing 101, and the number of mounting rings 104 is set to a plurality of them. An air intake fan 105 is rotatably connected inside the mounting ring 104. Side plates 106 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the housing 101. Positioning holes 107 are provided inside the side plates 106, and the number of positioning holes 107 is set to a plurality of them. The positioning holes 107 are rotatably connected to a rotating shaft 201. One end of a planar spiral spring 203 is attached to the outer wall of the side plate 106. An electric push rod 108 is provided at the bottom of the housing 101, and the top of the electric push rod 108 is provided with… A push plate 109 is provided, and limit plates 110 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the storage chamber 102. An arc-shaped groove is opened inside the positioning hole 107. Arc-shaped plates are provided at both ends of the rotating shaft 201. The arc-shaped plates slide inside the arc-shaped groove, thereby limiting the rotating shaft 201 so that the rotating shaft 201 remains horizontal when it rotates to the lowest position and can rotate upwards by 45°. When the mold is placed between the two bottom mold upward structures 2 for storage, the electric push rod 108 is activated. The electric push rod 108 drives the push plate 109 to move upwards, so that the push plate 109 pushes the bottom mold upwards. At the same time, a door panel is provided on one side of the housing 101, and the air intake fan 105 is activated. The air intake fan 105 can send outside air into the interior of the storage chamber 102 to keep the interior of the storage chamber 102 dry.

[0021] Initial state: When the shelf is empty, the bonding strips 205 of all molds upward structure 2 are in a horizontal position and are kept stable by the planar spiral springs 203.

[0022] The electric push rod 108 and the push plate 109 are located at the bottom, and the limit plate 110 ensures that the mold does not shift during the rising process.

[0023] Storage molds: The mold is placed between the two bottommost mold-up structures 2. The weight of the mold acts on the push plate 109.

[0024] The electric push rod 108 is activated, which pushes the push plate 109 upward. The push plate 109 directly contacts the bottom mold, pushing it upward.

[0025] Mold lifting mechanism: When the bottom mold moves upward, it first contacts the guide groove 206 of the upper mold's upward structure 2. The guide groove 206 guides the mold to rise smoothly, avoiding jamming.

[0026] The mold continues to rise, pushing the rotating shaft 201 to rotate. The rotating shaft 201 drives the side ring 202 to compress the planar spiral spring 203. At this time, the bonding strip 205 temporarily leaves the horizontal position, allowing the mold to pass through.

[0027] After the mold has completely passed the bonding strip 205, the planar spiral spring 203 releases energy, pushing the rotating shaft 201 to reset, causing the bonding strip 205 to rotate back under the mold, thereby supporting the mold.

[0028] Simultaneously, the bottom mold pushes the upper molds upwards, and a similar process occurs layer by layer, causing the molds to move up one layer at a time. Eventually, the bottom mold is pushed to the next layer, leaving the bottom empty to store the next mold.

[0029] Continuous storage: The operator can repeat the above process, placing the new mold at the lowest point and activating the electric push rod 108 to automatically raise and store the mold. This mechanism allows for the rapid and continuous storage of multiple molds without the need for manual adjustment of each layer.

[0030] Accessibility features: Moisture-proof treatment: When the air intake fan 105 is running, it draws dry external air into the storage chamber 102, which, together with the moisture-absorbing plate 103, absorbs moisture, keeping the chamber dry and preventing mold corrosion.

[0031] Positioning and Safety: The arc-shaped groove in the positioning hole 107 cooperates with the arc-shaped plates at both ends of the rotating shaft 201 to ensure that the rotation range of the rotating shaft 201 is limited, such as rotating upwards by 45°, to prevent excessive rotation. The limiting plate 110 further ensures that the mold remains stable during the rising process.

[0032] The above-described embodiments are merely illustrative of certain implementations of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed. However, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these modifications and improvements all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
