Abstract

This utility model relates to the field of refrigerated truck technology and discloses an adjustable refrigerated truck with compartment separation, including a truck body and a side door movably installed on the side of the truck body. The inner wall of the truck body has a storage cavity, and the top inner wall of the storage cavity is provided with a discharge assembly for pushing and discharging slightly frozen transported goods. In this adjustable refrigerated truck with compartment separation, during unloading, the operator only needs to pull the pull plate outward to drive the push plate to move outward. During this process, the sliding rod moves along a specific path of the corrugated groove, forcing the push plate to generate a regular lateral swing while moving horizontally. This causes the arc-shaped strip at the bottom of the push plate to apply a combined thrust that combines outward and lateral swinging force to the goods, effectively disturbing and breaking up any possible ice adhesion between the bottom of the goods and the truck bed, thereby significantly reducing unloading resistance, improving the unloading efficiency of slightly frozen goods, and ensuring a smooth transportation process.

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of refrigerated truck compartment technology, specifically an adjustable refrigerated truck compartment with compartments for separating items. Background Technology

[0002] In the prior art, a fixed partition plate is fixedly connected to the upper part of the outer shell of the refrigerated truck. A rotating column is rotatably connected directly below the fixed partition plate and located at the bottom of the outer shell. A rotating partition plate is fixedly connected to the upper end of the rotating column. Two truck doors are rotatably connected to one side of the outer shell. For example, Chinese Patent No. CN119928997A discloses an adjustable item-separated refrigerated truck. Through the setting of multiple sorting boxes that are interlocked, items in the inner sorting boxes can be easily taken out, avoiding the problem of difficulty in taking out the internal goods.

[0003] However, in actual operation, some of the transported items in the refrigerated compartment are heavy and have various shapes. The bottom surface of the items is prone to freezing and sticking to the floor of the refrigerated compartment, which affects the unloading rate of the items and causes the equipment to malfunction. In view of this, we propose an adjustable item-separated refrigerated compartment. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an adjustable refrigerated compartment for separating items, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an adjustable refrigerated compartment for separating goods, including a compartment body and a side door movably installed on the side of the compartment body. The inner wall of the compartment body is provided with a storage cavity, and a partition is detachably installed on the inner surface of the compartment body. The top inner wall of the storage cavity is provided with a feeding component for pushing and discharging slightly frozen transported goods. The feeding assembly includes a sliding cavity, which is located on the top inner wall of the storage cavity. A rectangular groove is formed at the bottom of the sliding cavity. A pull plate is slidably installed on the inner surface of the sliding cavity. A slider is movably connected to the pull plate near the inner wall of the storage cavity via a T-shaped strip. A push plate is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the slider. An arc-shaped strip is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the push plate. A wave groove is formed on the top inner surface of the sliding cavity. A slide rod is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the slider. The slide rod is movably engaged with the wave groove.

[0006] Preferably, the upper and lower surfaces of the partition are respectively provided with a docking groove and a docking strip, and the inner wall of the compartment is provided with a limiting strip and a limiting groove that are compatible with the docking groove and the docking strip.

[0007] Preferably, the inner wall of the slider is provided with a T-shaped groove whose shape is adapted to the T-shaped strip, and the length of the T-shaped groove is greater than that of the T-shaped strip, and the T-shaped strip is disposed inside the T-shaped groove.

[0008] Preferably, the width at the connection between the slider and the push plate is less than the width of the rectangular groove, while the width of the rectangular groove is greater than the distance between the two ends of the wave groove.

[0009] Preferably, the pusher plate is provided with a pusher assembly on its side. The pusher assembly includes a movable groove, which is opened on the outer wall of the pusher plate on the side away from the center of the box. Straight grooves are opened on the inner walls of both sides of the movable groove. A round rod is movably installed on the inner surface of the straight groove. A pusher roller is connected through and fixedly connected to the round rod. An anti-slip strip is fixedly installed on the arc-shaped outer surface of the pusher roller.

[0010] Preferably, the straight groove is inclined with its bottom end close to the center of the push plate and its top end away from the center of the push plate, and the width of the straight groove is adapted to the outer diameter of the round rod.

[0011] Preferably, the anti-slip strip is spirally arranged, and there are multiple sets of anti-slip strips arranged in a circumferential array on the arc-shaped outer surface of the push roller.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides an adjustable refrigerated compartment for separating items, which has the following advantages: 1. This adjustable refrigerated compartment effectively solves the problem of unloading difficulties caused by frozen and sticky refrigerated items through its unloading components. During unloading, the operator only needs to pull the pull plate outward to drive the push plate to move outward. During this process, the slide bar moves along a specific path of the wave groove, forcing the push plate to generate regular lateral swing while moving horizontally. This causes the arc strip at the bottom of the push plate to apply a combined thrust that combines outward and lateral swing to the items, which can effectively disturb and break the ice that may form between the bottom of the items and the bottom of the compartment. This significantly reduces unloading resistance, improves the unloading efficiency of slightly frozen items, and ensures a smooth transportation process.

[0013] 2. This adjustable refrigerated compartment, with its pusher assembly, further enhances the smoothness and effectiveness of the unloading process. When the pusher plate pushes the items outward, the pusher roller contacts the item surface. Under the reaction force, the round rod slides along the inclined straight groove, causing the pusher roller to generate an upward displacement tendency while providing horizontal thrust. This applies an upward component force to the items, helping to slightly lift the front end of the items, reducing their contact area and friction with the compartment floor. At the same time, the spiral anti-slip strips on the circumferential array of the pusher roller increase the friction with the item surface and provide a continuous and stable propulsive force during rolling, effectively preventing slippage during the pushing process. This ensures that the items can be smoothly and easily pushed out of the storage compartment, greatly improving the reliability and convenience of the unloading operation.

Detailed Implementation

[0016] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: an adjustable refrigerated compartment for separating items, including a compartment 1, and a side door 2 that is movably installed on the side of the compartment 1. The inner wall of the compartment 1 has a storage cavity 3, and a partition 6 is detachably installed on the inner surface of the compartment 1.

[0017] The side door 2 is controlled to close and open by an external cylinder, and the contact part between the side door 2 and the compartment 1 is equipped with an annular seal to ensure the relative independence of the storage cavity 3, so as to ensure the refrigeration requirements of cold chain transportation. Furthermore, the number of storage cavities 3 is set in several groups, and the groups of storage cavities 3 are evenly distributed inside the front and rear sides of the compartment 1 to provide sufficient space for refrigerated transportation and ensure the overall practicality of the device. Furthermore, the detachable partition 6 allows adjacent storage cavities 3 to form a larger space for placing larger refrigerated items, improving the flexibility of the device in actual transportation.

[0018] The storage cavity 3 has a top inner wall with a feeding assembly 4 for pushing and discharging slightly frozen transported goods. The feeding assembly 4 includes a sliding cavity 41, which is opened on the top inner wall of the storage cavity 3. A rectangular groove 47 is opened at the bottom of the sliding cavity 41. A pull plate 42 is slidably installed on the inner surface of the sliding cavity 41. A slider 44 is movably connected to one end of the pull plate 42 near the inner wall of the storage cavity 3 via a T-shaped strip 43. A push plate 45 is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the slider 44. An arc strip 46 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the push plate 45. A wave groove 48 is opened on the top inner surface of the sliding cavity 41. A slide rod 49 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the slider 44. The slide rod 49 is movably engaged with the wave groove 48.

[0019] The unloading assembly 4 allows workers to more easily remove refrigerated items from the storage cavity 3. Specifically, the pull plate 42 provides a grip for easy pulling out, while the push plate 45 and the curved strip 46 are initially positioned inside the storage cavity 3. When the pull plate 42 is pulled outward, the push plate 45 and the curved strip 46 exert an outward pushing force on the refrigerated items inside the storage cavity 3, facilitating unloading. The upper and lower surfaces of the partition 6 are respectively provided with a docking groove and a docking strip, while the inner wall of the compartment 1 is provided with a limiting strip and a limiting groove that are compatible with the docking groove and the docking strip.

[0020] The design of the docking groove and docking strip allows the partition 6 to be installed and disassembled more accurately, while also ensuring the convenience of modular installation.

[0021] The inner wall of the slider 44 is provided with a T-shaped groove whose shape is adapted to the T-shaped bar 43, and the length of the T-shaped groove is greater than that of the T-shaped bar 43. The T-shaped bar 43 is located inside the T-shaped groove.

[0022] With the T-shaped bar 43 and T-shaped groove, the slider 44 can slide along the direction of movement of the pull plate 42 and the T-shaped bar 43, while the slider 44 can also slide laterally with the T-shaped bar 43, thereby avoiding motion interference between the slider 44 and the T-shaped bar 43, and thus facilitating the pushing and unloading effect of the push plate 45 on the refrigerated items placed in the storage cavity 3.

[0023] The width at the connection between slider 44 and push plate 45 is less than the width of rectangular groove 47, while the width of rectangular groove 47 is greater than the distance between the two ends of wave groove 48.

[0024] When the pull plate 42 is pulled away from the center of the compartment 1, guided and restricted by the wave groove 48 and the slide bar 49, the slider 44 moves left and right in the horizontal direction while moving outward with the pull plate 42. At this time, the slider 44 can drive the push plate 45 to move left and right. The rectangular groove 47 is set to avoid the slider 44 interfering with the movement of the push plate 45. Furthermore, the push plate 45 slides left and right in the horizontal direction while pushing the material outward, thereby changing the position of the refrigerated goods being pushed, and thus causing the possible frozen position between the refrigerated goods and the storage cavity 3 to be separated by force, so as to realize the outward pushing of the refrigerated goods and reduce the situation where the refrigerated goods cannot be smoothly discharged due to sticking. Specifically, the arc strip 46 can also make the contact surface of some refrigerated goods be pushed at an upward angle, accelerating the separation of the frozen position between the refrigerated goods and the storage cavity 3, thereby improving the overall discharge efficiency of the device.

[0025] Please see Figures 3-4 The push plate 45 is provided with a push assembly 5 on its side. The push assembly 5 includes a movable groove 51. The movable groove 51 is opened on the outer wall of the push plate 45 away from the center of the box 1. Straight grooves 52 are opened on the inner walls of both sides of the movable groove 51. A round rod 53 is movably installed on the inner surface of the straight groove 52. The round rod 53 passes through and is fixedly connected to a push roller 54. An anti-slip strip 55 is fixedly installed on the arc-shaped outer surface of the push roller 54.

[0026] By setting up the pusher component 5, during the process of pushing the refrigerated goods by the pusher plate 45, the pusher component 5 can also generate a vertical rolling force on the refrigerated goods, thereby improving the feeding efficiency of the refrigerated goods in the storage cavity 3.

[0027] The straight groove 52 is inclined with its bottom end close to the center of the push plate 45 and its top end far away from the center of the push plate 45. The width of the straight groove 52 is adapted to the outer diameter of the round rod 53.

[0028] During the initial loading, the round rod 53 drives the push roller 54 to the bottom of the straight groove 52. When the push plate 45 moves outward and contacts the surface of the refrigerated goods, the push roller 54 will move obliquely upward along the straight groove 52 after being subjected to force. During this process, the push roller 54 further generates an oblique pushing force from bottom to top on the refrigerated goods, causing the adhesion between the refrigerated goods and the storage cavity 3 to be separated by force. At the same time, it appropriately reduces the contact area between the refrigerated goods and the storage cavity 3, reduces the friction force it receives, and increases the feeding speed of the refrigerated goods.

[0029] The anti-slip strip 55 is arranged in a spiral shape, and there are multiple sets of anti-slip strips 55 arranged in a circumferential array on the arc-shaped outer surface of the push roller 54.

[0030] By setting the anti-slip belt 55, the push roller 54 can provide thrust to the refrigerated goods during its movement, and at the same time rotate on the surface of the refrigerated goods, thereby improving the pushing and feeding effect of the anti-slip belt 55 and the push roller 54 on the refrigerated goods.

[0031] Working principle: When it is necessary to unload the items in the storage cavity 3, the operator first pulls the pull plate 42 outward. The pull plate 42 drives the slider 44 to slide outward in the sliding cavity 41 through the T-shaped strip 43. During this process, the slide rod 49 fixed to the upper surface of the slider 44 moves along the wave groove 48 on the inner surface of the top of the sliding cavity 41. Due to the wave-shaped path constraint of the wave groove 48, the slide rod 49 is forced to move laterally back to the ground while moving horizontally, thereby driving the slider 44 and the push plate 45 fixed to its lower surface to swing left and right while moving outward. The arc strip 46 at the bottom of the push plate 45 moves synchronously, applying an outward and lateral swinging combined thrust to the items at the bottom of the storage cavity 3. This combined action helps to more effectively break the slight freezing or adhesion that may exist between the bottom of the items and the bottom surface of the storage cavity 3. At the same time, the pushing assembly 5 installed on the side of the push plate 45 starts to work. When the push plate 45 moves outward and contacts the surface of the item, the item generates a reaction force on the push roller 54. This force causes the round rod 53 to slide from the side closer to the center of the push plate 45 to the side farther away from the center of the push plate 45 in the inclined straight groove 52. Due to the inclined guidance of the straight groove 52, the push roller 54 pushes the item outward and also generates an upward displacement tendency relative to the push plate 45, thereby applying an upward component force to the item. This component force helps to slightly lift the item, further reducing its adsorption and friction with the bottom surface of the compartment 1. The spiral anti-slip strip 55 installed on the surface of the push roller 54 increases the friction when it contacts the surface of the item, and as the push roller 54 rotates and moves, it continuously and stably pushes the item out of the storage cavity 3 until the item is successfully pushed out, completing the unloading process.

[0032] The present invention has been described in detail above. However, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, any modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
