Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of library equipment technology, and in particular relates to a newspaper storage and retrieval device for libraries. Background Technology

[0002] Newspapers, as a time-sensitive and information-dense medium, occupy an important position in library collections.

[0003] Traditionally, libraries store newspapers by clipping several newspapers together by category or date and hanging them on newspaper racks. Currently, most newspapers are multi-page, and clipped newspapers only display the first page, not the titles and content of each page. When readers want to preview the titles of other pages before deciding to read a newspaper, they often take the newspaper off the rack and briefly flip through it. Since newspapers are usually A2 size and quite large, it is very inconvenient for readers to hold and flip through them. Moreover, clipped newspapers are quite heavy, making them unsuitable for certain groups such as the elderly and children to hold and read directly. Furthermore, the newspaper material itself is easily damaged, and the unsupported flipping action increases the damage rate of the newspapers, which can easily affect the circulation cycle of the newspapers. Therefore, there is a need for a newspaper storage device for libraries that allows readers to preview the content of newspapers without having to remove them from the storage device. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to support the newspaper through a supporting mechanism. The supporting plate can be adjusted in tilt angle, which can both protect the newspaper and facilitate the reader's preview. This achieves the goal of previewing the newspaper content without having to remove the newspaper from the newspaper storage device, thus solving the problem in the above-mentioned background technology that it is extremely inconvenient for readers to hold the newspaper and flip through it for previewing, and that it is easy to damage the newspaper.

[0005] The specific technical solution of this utility model is as follows: A newspaper storage and retrieval device for a library includes a frame with several cavities having front openings inside. Several support mechanisms are slidably connected within the cavities. Each support mechanism includes a base plate slidably connected to the inner facades on both sides of the cavity. A support plate is rotatably connected to the top of the base plate. A support rod for adjusting the tilt angle of the support plate is provided between the support plate and the base plate. A newspaper clip is movably connected to the support plate.

[0006] Furthermore, several linear grooves are provided on the inner surfaces of both sides of the cavity, and sliders that are matched with the linear grooves are provided on the outer surfaces of both sides of the base plate.

[0007] Furthermore, the linear slide includes a sliding groove at the front and a limiting groove at the rear. The inner width of the sliding groove is smaller than the inner width of the limiting groove. The front of the slider is provided with a sliding block adapted to the sliding groove, and the rear of the slider is provided with a limiting block adapted to the limiting groove. The length of the limiting block is smaller than the length of the limiting groove.

[0008] Furthermore, the upper surface of the base plate is provided with a groove, and the inner surfaces on both sides of the groove are provided with shaft holes, and the outer surfaces on both sides of the support plate are respectively provided with shafts that are matched with the shaft holes.

[0009] Furthermore, the inner facades on both sides of the settling tank are provided with relief grooves, and several limiting members are arranged in a linear array in the relief grooves. The front facade of the limiting members is provided with positioning grooves, and the outer facades on both sides of the support plate are provided with positioning holes. One end of the support rod is provided with a positioning shaft that matches the positioning hole, and the other end of the support rod is provided with a positioning rod that matches the positioning groove.

[0010] Furthermore, a guide is provided inside the clearance groove, and the guide is located above the limiting member.

[0011] Furthermore, the front and rear ends of the support plate are respectively provided with baffles, and the two baffles are connected together to a newspaper clip. The upper surface of the baffles is provided with grooves, and the two ends of the newspaper clip are provided with connecting rods that match the grooves.

[0012] Furthermore, the frame has several cavities arranged in opposite directions at the front and back.

[0013] Furthermore, a door is provided at the front opening of the cavity, and the door is rotatably connected to the frame.

[0014] Furthermore, a support structure is provided at the bottom of the frame.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: When readers want to read the newspaper, they only need to pull the supporting mechanism out of the cavity and then adjust the tilt angle of the supporting plate with the support rod until it is suitable for reading. This avoids the need for readers to hold the newspaper and flip through it to preview it, making it more convenient for readers to read the newspaper, reducing the newspaper damage rate, and improving the efficiency of reading.

[0016] When storing newspapers, the library lays the support plate flat and places the newspapers flat on the support plate. This avoids the problem of concentrated stress on the local area where the clips contact the newspaper when the newspaper is hung up, which would cause severe wear and tear in some areas of the newspaper due to the weight of the newspaper itself.

[0018] To better understand the purpose, structure, and function of this utility model, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0019] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "inner", "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 utility model 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, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0020] See Figures 1 to 6This embodiment discloses a newspaper storage and retrieval device for a library, including a frame 1. The frame 1 has several cavities 11 with open front ends. In this embodiment, two cavities (11) are provided. Several supporting mechanisms 2 are slidably connected in the cavities 11. It can be further optimized that the supporting mechanisms 2 are arranged in a vertical linear array in the cavities 11. The supporting mechanism 2 includes a base plate 21 that is slidably connected to the inner surfaces of both sides of the cavity 11. When reading a newspaper, the supporting mechanism 2 can be partially pulled out of the cavity 11 for easy access. A supporting plate 22 is rotatably connected to the top of the base plate 21. The supporting plate 22 and the base plate 21 are connected in a rotatable manner. A support rod 23 is provided between the support plate 22 and the wall to adjust the tilt angle of the support plate 22. The tilt angle of the support plate 22 can be adjusted by the support rod 23 to accommodate different readers and facilitate their browsing and previewing. When storing newspapers, the library lays the support plate 22 flat and places the newspapers flat on the support plate 22. This avoids the problem of concentrated force on the local area where the clips are in contact with the newspapers due to the weight of the newspapers themselves when they are hung and stored, which would cause severe wear in some areas of the newspapers. This reduces the damage rate of the newspapers. A newspaper clip 24 is movably connected to the support plate 22 for clipping newspapers of the same type, making it convenient for readers to browse and improving the efficiency of browsing.

[0021] Several linear grooves 12 are provided on the inner surfaces of both sides of the cavity 11. Further optimization is possible by having several linear grooves 12 arranged in a vertical array. The outer surfaces of both sides of the base plate 21 are provided with sliders 211 that are used in conjunction with the linear grooves 12. The sliding connection between the support mechanism 2 and the cavity 11 is achieved through the sliding cooperation between the sliders 211 and the linear grooves 12.

[0022] like Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the linear slide 12 includes a sliding groove 121 at the front and a limiting groove 122 at the rear. The width of the sliding groove 121 is smaller than the width of the limiting groove 122. The front of the slider 211 is provided with a sliding block 2111 that matches the sliding groove 121, and the rear of the slider 211 is provided with a limiting block 2112 that matches the limiting groove 122. The length of the limiting block 2112 is smaller than the length of the limiting groove 122. When the bottom plate 21 is pulled out, the limiting block 2112 slides in the limiting groove 122. When the limiting block 2112 slides close to the sliding groove 121, it cannot continue to slide forward because the width of the sliding groove 121 is smaller than the width of the limiting groove 122. The movement of the limiting block 2112 is restricted by the sliding groove 121, preventing the bottom plate 21 from falling out of the cavity 11 when the bottom plate 21 is pulled out, thus preventing damage to the bottom plate 21 and the newspaper.

[0023] like Figure 5As shown, the upper surface of the base plate 21 is provided with a groove 212, and the inner surfaces on both sides of the groove 212 are provided with shaft holes 2121 facing each other. The outer surfaces on both sides of the support plate 22 are respectively provided with shaft rods 221 that are matched with the shaft holes 2121. The support plate 22 and the base plate 21 are rotated through the shaft hole 2121 and the shaft rod 221. In this embodiment, the shaft hole 2121 is close to the front of the base plate 21, which is conducive to the support plate 22 flipping forward. It can be further optimized that when the lower surface of the support plate 22 is in contact with the bottom of the groove 212, the upper surface of the support plate 22 is flush with the upper surface of the base plate 21, which improves the flatness of the upper surface of the support mechanism 2.

[0024] like Figure 5 As shown, the inner facades on both sides of the settling tank 212 are provided with opposing clearance grooves 213. Several limiting members 214 are arranged in a linear array within the clearance grooves 213. The front facade of the limiting member 214 is provided with a positioning groove 2141. Further optimization is possible by providing a forward-sloping surface at the rear of the limiting member 214. The outer facades on both sides of the support plate 22 are provided with opposing positioning holes 222. One end of the support rod 23 is provided with a positioning shaft 231 that matches the positioning hole 222, and the other end of the support rod 23 is provided with a positioning rod 232 that matches the positioning groove 2141. The positioning shaft 231 is inserted into the positioning hole 222, and the support rod 23 is connected to the positioning hole 222 via the positioning shaft 231. The hole and shaft fit together to achieve a rotatable connection with the support plate 22. The positioning rod 232 is located in the relief groove 213. When the support plate 22 is tilted forward, the positioning rod 232 slides forward in the relief groove 213. The rear of the limiting member 214 has a forward-tilting slope, which is conducive to the forward sliding action of the positioning rod 232 and prevents the limiting member 214 from obstructing the positioning rod 232. After the position of the support plate 22 is adjusted, the support plate 22 is released. The support plate 22 pushes the positioning rod 232 backward by gravity, so that the positioning rod 232 enters the positioning groove 2141, which restricts the positioning rod 232 from moving backward and fixes the tilt angle of the support plate 22.

[0025] like Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, a guide member 215 is provided inside the clearance groove 213. The guide member 215 is located above the limiting member 214. The guide member 215 is elongated. The distance between the front end of the guide member 215 and the front surface of the clearance groove 213 is greater than the diameter of the positioning rod 232 and less than the distance between the foremost limiting member 214 and the front surface of the clearance groove 213. The distance between the rear end of the guide member 215 and the rear surface of the clearance groove 213 is greater than the diameter of the positioning rod 232 and less than the distance between the rearmost limiting member 214 and the rear surface of the clearance groove 213. The distance between the lower surface of the guide member 215 and the upper surface of the limiting member 214 is greater than the diameter of the positioning rod 232. The distance between the upper surface of the guide member 215 and the top of the clearance groove 213 is greater than the diameter of the positioning rod 232. When the support plate 22 is tilted forward, the positioning rod 232 is located below the guide member 215 and moves forward. After the support plate 22 is adjusted to the correct angle, it is released. The support plate 22 slides forward within the recess 213, and the positioning rod 232 moves backward under the force of gravity, causing the positioning rod 232 to enter the positioning groove 2141. This restricts the positioning rod 232 from moving further backward, fixing the tilt angle of the support plate 22. To flatten the support plate 22, simply tilt the support plate 22 forward until the positioning rod 232 slides to the front end of the recess 213. Then, push the support rod 23 upward by hand, causing the positioning rod 232 to slide above the guide member 215. Release the support rod 23, and the positioning rod 232 moves backward under the force of gravity of the support plate 22. The positioning rod 232 slides backward on the upper surface of the guide member 215 and finally falls into the recess 213. In this embodiment, the length of the support rod 23 ensures that after the support plate 22 is flattened, the positioning rod 232 can fall through the gap between the rear end of the guide member 215 and the rear vertical surface of the recess 213, facilitating the next adjustment of the tilt angle of the support plate 22.

[0026] The support plate 22 has retaining edges 223 at its front and rear ends to prevent newspapers from slipping off. The front retaining edge 223 helps the user pull and push the base plate 21, while the rear retaining edge 223 helps the user adjust the tilt angle of the support plate 22. Further optimization is achieved by providing gripping holes on the retaining edges 223 for easier operation. In this embodiment, the front surface of the front retaining edge 223 has a label pasting groove for pasting newspaper classification labels. Both retaining edges 223 work together... A newspaper clip 24 is connected to the newspaper clip 24, which is used to clip several newspapers together. The upper surface of the edge 223 is provided with a groove 2231. The two ends of the newspaper clip 24 are provided with connecting rods 241 that are used with the groove 2231. It can be further optimized that the bottom of the groove 2231 is provided with an arc-shaped concave surface that is used with the connecting rod 241. This helps the reader to turn the newspaper clip 24 when flipping through the newspaper. The newspaper clip 24 rotates through the cooperation of the connecting rod 241 and the arc-shaped concave surface. The top of the groove 2231 is open, making it easy to remove the newspaper clip 24 for clipping or borrowing newspapers.

[0027] The frame 1 has several cavities 11 arranged in a front-to-back manner inside. By setting cavities 11 in the front and rear parts of the frame 1, the storage space for newspapers in the frame 1 can be increased.

[0028] A door 3 is provided at the front opening of the cavity 11 to block dust and prevent newspapers from accumulating dust due to long-term exposure. The door 3 is rotatably connected to the frame 1. In this embodiment, the door 3 and the frame 1 are hinged together by a hinge. The door 3 is provided with a transparent window to facilitate readers in selecting newspapers.

[0029] The bottom of the frame 1 is provided with a support part 4. In this embodiment, the cross-section of the support part 4 is king-shaped, such as... Figure 6 As shown, the support part 4 is used to support the left and right sides and the middle part of the frame 1, to prevent the frame 1 from being deformed by pressure after long-term use, and to isolate the bottom of the frame 1 from the ground, thus playing a role in moisture prevention.

[0030] Working principle: When the library collects newspapers, the newspapers are clamped with newspaper clips 24 and placed on the support plate 22. Since the support plate 22 is placed horizontally, it can effectively protect the newspapers and prevent them from folding and wearing out. When readers want to read the newspapers, they only need to pull out part of the bottom plate 21 from the cavity 11 to preview the newspapers. If it is necessary to adjust the tilt angle of the support plate 22, simply flip the support plate 22 forward. The support plate 22 is fixed at a suitable angle by the cooperation of the limiting member 214 and the positioning rod 232. After reading, tilt the support plate 22 forward until the positioning rod 232 slides to the front end of the clearance groove 213. Push the support rod 23 upward by hand so that the positioning rod 232 slides above the guide member 215. Release the support rod 23, and the support plate 22 will return to a horizontal state.

[0031] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
