Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of storage device technology, and in particular to a metal storage rack. Background Technology
[0002] In industrial production, machining, and parts management, metal parts (such as bolts, bushings, and small hardware accessories) are usually stored in an orderly manner using storage racks. This is to avoid difficulties in retrieval, damage from collisions, or loss caused by random stacking of metal parts, and to ensure the standardization of metal parts storage and the convenience of subsequent use. As a result, metal parts storage racks have become a commonly used auxiliary storage device in the industrial field.
[0003] However, existing metal storage racks often use fixed partitions to divide the space, or can only be adjusted in a few preset positions. They cannot flexibly change the size of the internal compartments according to the actual size and quantity of the metal parts to be stored. When storing metal parts of different sizes, the fixed partitions either become too large, resulting in waste, or are too small to accommodate larger metal parts, forcing the metal parts to be stacked. This affects the neatness of the storage and may cause scratches or deformation on the surface of the metal parts, greatly reducing the rack's adaptability and storage efficiency for different types of metal parts. Utility Model Content

[0006] The metal parts storage rack according to the embodiments of this application has at least the following beneficial effects: The metal parts storage rack includes a frame body with an upper opening and several first partitions. At least one opposite side panel of the frame body has several sets of corresponding mounting slots spaced apart at its top. Both the bottom plate and side panels have drainage holes with a diameter smaller than that of the metal parts to be placed. The length of the first partition matches the spacing between the oppositely arranged side panels.

The two sides of the second partition are provided with second locking blocks that match the mounting groove. The first partition is provided with a clearance structure at the mounting groove position corresponding to the other two side plates. The clearance structure is used to provide clearance space for the second partition installed in the frame.

[0010] According to some embodiments of this application, a buffer layer is also provided on the bottom plate of the frame.
[0011] According to some embodiments of this application, the buffer layer is a mesh pad, and the pore size of the mesh pad is smaller than the pore size of the drainage through hole.

[0022] In industrial production, machining, and parts management, metal parts (such as bolts, bushings, and small hardware accessories) are usually stored in an orderly manner using storage racks. This is to avoid difficulties in retrieval, damage from collisions, or loss caused by random stacking of metal parts, and to ensure the standardization of metal parts storage and the convenience of subsequent use. As a result, metal parts storage racks have become a commonly used auxiliary storage device in the industrial field.
[0023] However, existing metal storage racks often use fixed partitions to divide the space, or can only be adjusted in a few preset positions. They cannot flexibly change the size of the internal compartments according to the actual size and quantity of the metal parts to be stored. When storing metal parts of different sizes, the fixed partitions either become too large, resulting in waste, or are too small to accommodate larger metal parts, forcing the metal parts to be stacked. This affects the neatness of the storage and may cause scratches or deformation on the surface of the metal parts, greatly reducing the rack's adaptability and storage efficiency for different types of metal parts.
[0024] Based on this, this application provides a metal parts storage rack to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. The technical solutions provided by this application will be described in detail below.
[0025] Reference Figure 1 This application provides a metal parts storage rack, including a frame 100 and a first partition 200. The frame 100 has an open top structure, and at least one opposite side plate 101 has a plurality of corresponding mounting slots 110 spaced apart on its top. The bottom plate 102 and the side plate 101 of the frame 100 are both provided with drainage holes 120, the diameter of which is smaller than the size of the metal parts to be placed. The first partition 200 has a plurality of first partitions, the length of which matches the distance between two opposite side plates 101 with mounting slots 110. The first partition 200 has first locking blocks 210 on both sides that match the mounting slots 110. The first partition 200 is engaged with the corresponding mounting slots 110 by the first locking blocks 210 to be installed in the frame 100.
[0026] This metal storage rack includes a frame 100 with an opening at the top and several first partitions 200. The top of at least one opposite side plate 101 of the frame 100 is provided with several sets of corresponding mounting slots 110. The bottom plate 102 and the side plate 101 are also provided with drainage holes 120 with a diameter smaller than that of the metal parts to be placed. The length of the first partition 200 matches the spacing between the opposite side plates 101. First locking blocks 210 adapted to the mounting slots 110 are provided on both sides. The metal parts can be installed in the frame 100 by locking the first locking blocks 210 with the corresponding mounting slots 110. This structure, through the cooperation of the mounting slot 110 and the first locking block 210, can flexibly adjust the position of the first partition 200 within the frame 100, thereby changing the size of the internal partitions as needed. This solves the problem of limited partition adjustment and inability to adapt to metal parts of different sizes in existing storage racks. At the same time, the drainage hole 120 can prevent metal parts from falling off the frame 100 and can drain residual moisture in time. Ultimately, it not only improves the adaptability and storage organization of the storage rack to metal parts of different specifications and increases the flexibility of the storage space partitioning within the frame 100, but also reduces damage to metal parts caused by stacking or moisture, ensuring the storage quality and storage efficiency of metal parts.
[0027] Continue to refer to Figure 1 It is understandable that the spacing between two adjacent mounting slots 110 on the side panel 101 is equal. This equal spacing between adjacent mounting slots 110 on the side panel 101 provides a uniform benchmark and interval unit for adjusting the position of the first partition 200, facilitating users to quickly and accurately determine the partition's installation position based on the dimensions of the metal parts. Simultaneously, the uniform spacing makes the internal partitioning of the frame 100 more organized and orderly, avoiding adjustment chaos caused by inconsistent spacing, and further enhancing the flexibility of adapting to different specifications of metal parts and the neatness of storage.
[0028] Reference Figure 2It is understood that the metal storage rack provided in this application also includes a second partition 300. Each of the four side panels 101 of the rack body 100 has a mounting groove 110. The length of the second partition 300 matches the spacing between the other two side panels 101 with mounting grooves 110 and arranged opposite each other. The second partition 300 has second locking blocks 310 on both sides that match the mounting grooves 110. The first partition 200 has a clearance structure at the position corresponding to the mounting grooves 110 of the other two side panels 101. The clearance structure provides clearance space for the second partition 300 installed inside the rack body 100. After adding the second partition 300 and the corresponding structure, the rack body 100 can form a crisscrossing partition structure through the cooperation of the first partition 200 and the second partition 300, achieving multi-dimensional division of the internal space of the rack body 100. Since all four side panels 101 are equipped with mounting slots 110, the second partition 300 can be flexibly adjusted in a direction perpendicular to the first partition 200. The avoidance structure of the first partition 200 ensures that the two can be installed crosswise without interference. This allows the partitions to be adjusted not only in a single direction but also further refined in the vertical direction, thus accommodating more metal parts of different sizes and shapes. This structure retains the original flexibility of adjustable partition positions while significantly improving the detail and targeting of space utilization through multi-dimensional division. It allows various metal parts to be stored according to more precise specifications, further enhancing the organization of storage, facilitating quick retrieval, and improving overall storage management efficiency.
[0029] Continue to refer to Figure 2 It is understood that the clearance structure is a clearance groove 220 located at the lower part of the first partition 200. The width of the clearance groove 220 matches the thickness of the second partition 300, and the depth of the clearance groove 220 matches the height of the second partition 300. By setting the clearance structure at the lower part of the first partition 200, with its width matching the thickness of the second partition 300 and its depth matching the height of the second partition 300, the clearance groove 220 allows for a precise and tight fit when the second partition 300 and the first partition 200 are installed crosswise. The second partition 300 can be directly inserted into the clearance groove 220 without additional alignment adjustments, greatly improving the convenience of cross-assembly. Furthermore, because the dimensions are perfectly matched, it avoids partition wobbling or displacement caused by gaps after installation, effectively ensuring the stability of the cross-sectional partition structure and preventing misplacement of metal parts due to loose partitions. Meanwhile, the design that matches the depth of the second partition 300 with its height allows the second partition 300 to be fully embedded in the clearance groove 220, without any local protrusion or wasted space. This makes the boundaries of the internal partitions of the frame 100 clearer and the space division more precise, further optimizing the space utilization efficiency. It also allows metal parts of different specifications to be stored in neat and stable partitions, improving the reliability of overall storage management.
[0030] Understandably, the base plate 102 of the frame 100 is also equipped with a buffer layer, which can directly buffer the impact force of the metal parts when they are placed against the base plate 102, and prevent the metal parts from being scratched on the surface or deformed by the edge due to direct contact with the hard base plate 102. It plays an effective protective role, especially for metal parts with high precision requirements or easily damaged surfaces.
[0031] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 It is understandable that the buffer layer is a mesh pad 130, and the aperture of the mesh in the mesh pad 130 is smaller than the aperture of the drainage hole 120. The mesh structure not only has a buffering effect, which can alleviate the impact of collision when the metal parts are placed, and avoid surface scratches or corner deformation, but its hollow characteristics will not block the drainage hole 120 of the base plate 102, ensuring that residual moisture in the metal parts can pass through the mesh and then be discharged through the drainage hole 120, effectively preventing water accumulation inside the frame 100 from causing the metal parts to rust.
[0032] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 It is understandable that the base plate 102 of the frame 100 has a square structure, and the four side plates 101 of the frame 100 are of equal length. The square base plate 102 and the side plates 101 of equal length can make the longitudinal and transverse partitions of the first and second partitions 300 more regular. The partition boundaries are parallel to the edge of the frame 100, which can evenly divide the space according to the size of the metal parts, avoiding the problem of uneven partition sizes caused by the irregular shape of the frame 100, further improving the orderliness of storage, and making it convenient for users to quickly locate and retrieve metal parts.
[0033] Understandably, the shelf 100 is made of metal, and its surface is coated with an anti-rust coating. The metal construction of the shelf 100 enhances its strength and rigidity, allowing it to withstand the weight of heavier metal components and reducing the likelihood of deformation or breakage due to long-term load-bearing. The anti-rust coating forms a dense protective film, isolating the metal substrate from corrosive media and effectively preventing rust and oxidation. Even in humid or slightly corrosive storage environments, it maintains structural integrity for a long time, significantly reducing maintenance frequency and replacement costs, and extending the overall lifespan of the storage rack. This anti-rust coating can be an epoxy coating, a galvanized layer, etc.
[0034] It is understandable that a reinforcing rib structure (not shown in the figure) is provided at the junction of adjacent side panels 101. The reinforcing rib structure at the junction of adjacent side panels 101 can enhance the structural strength of the junction, prevent the frame 100 from deforming or loosening at the junction due to the stress of storing metal parts, and improve the overall stability.
[0035] The embodiments of this application have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, this application is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of this application.
