Patent Application
20230148750
The subject matter herein relates to technical field of storage and transportation, especially relates to a device for storage of products.
In the field of industrial production, many processes involve the storage and transportation of products, such as lens. For storing products or semi-finished products with definite shape, a frame with multiple trays is usually used for storage and transportation.
However, in the actual use process of the device for storage of products, frequent usage of the trays can strike metal debris from contacting surfaces between the trays and dents and deformation of the trays, which can not only cause dangers to the health of operators, but also pollute the transported products, affect the workshop environment, and increase the potential cleaning cost.
Many aspects of the disclosure can be better understood with reference to the following drawings. The components in the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale, the emphasis instead being placed upon clearly illustrating the principles of the disclosure. Moreover, in the drawings, like reference numerals designate corresponding parts throughout the several views.
In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present application more obvious, a description of specific embodiments of the present application will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. The present application can be implemented in many ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without violating the contents of the present application. Therefore, the present application is not to be considered as limiting the scope of the embodiments to those described herein.
Several definitions that apply throughout this disclosure will now be presented.
Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one skilled in the art. The terms used in the present application herein are only for describing specific embodiments, and are not intended to limit the present application.
Referring to
The products include but are not limited to elements with solid and stable shapes such as camera assemblies or lens of electronic products. The products are fixed and placed in the device for storage of products 100 through the tray 13 to facilitate the storage and transportation of products. The supporting structures 12 are stacked and spaced along inner walls in the frame 10. Each supporting structure 12 is basically arranged in parallel, and the tray 13 is arranged on one pair of supporting structures 12. In the first embodiment of the present disclosure, slide rails 121 are symmetrically arranged on each pair of the supporting structures 12, and the tray 13 can be inserted or extracted from one end of the supporting structure 12. The other end of each supporting structure 12 is provided with a blocking part. The blocking part can be a baffle positioned at an end of the slide rail 121 to prevent the tray 13 from sliding out from the other side of the supporting structure 12, to ensure the stability of the tray 13 when the product is stored.
Referring to
The connecting portion 123 is a part of the slide rail 121 that supports the tray 13, when the tray 13 slides on the slide rail 121, and the connecting portion 123 is connected to the inner wall of the frame 10. The blocking portion 124 is connected to the connecting portion 123 and protrudes from an upper surface of the connecting portion 123. A depression is formed between the connecting portion 123 and the blocking portion 124, so that dust and debris from any source are blocked by the blocking portion 124 instead of falling into the tray 13.
In one embodiment, the supporting portion 133 is provided with a support protrusion 1331. The support protrusion 1331 is arranged at a side of the tray 13. A guide groove is formed between the connecting portion 123 and the blocking portion 124, a portion of the support protrusion 1331 is arranged in the guide groove, and the support protrusion 1331 abuts the connecting portion 123.
The support protrusion 1331 protrudes downward from the mounting plate 132. The mounting plate 132 is connected between the two support portions 133 and is configured for accommodating and positioning products. When the tray 13 is installed or removed, the support protrusion 1331 is in contact with the connecting portion 123 and presents dynamic friction. At this time, the generated debris and dust are blocked by the blocking portion 124 and will be collected on the connecting portion 123, which will not pollute the product and is easier for the user to clean.
Referring to
The first surface is a top surface of the blocking portion 124 from the viewing angle as shown in
Referring to
The guiding portion 125 can be inclined to the bottom of the blocking portion 124, to have a smooth transition effect. While facilitating disassembly and assembly, it can also make the installation process smoother and reduce the generation of debris.
The guiding portion 125 includes an inclined surface 1251, a first arc surface 1252, and a second arc surface 1253. The inclined surface 1251 is connected between the first arc surface 1252 and the second arc surface 1253. The second arc surface 1253 faces the opening of the frame 10. The firs arc surface 1252 and the second arc surface 1253 allow smoother disassembly of the tray 13, reduce the friction during installation alignment and further reduce the generation of debris.
Referring to
In one embodiment, the frame 10 is provided with ventilation grooves. The ventilation grooves are defined on side walls of the frame 10, and the ventilation grooves communicate with the receiving cavity 11. Ventilation grooves also can reduce a total weight of the device for storage of products 100 by reducing material consumption. When the stored products have just been processed and have a certain temperature, the ventilation grooves operate to cool the products.
Referring to
In one embodiment, the product storage device 100 further includes a locking member 14. The locking member 14 is rotatably connected to the frame 10, and the locking member 14 detachably abuts the tray 13. The locking member 14 is used to fix the tray 13 in the receiving cavity 11.
The locking member 14 can be a rod-shaped member. The locking member 14 comprises a main body 141, a first end portion 142, and a second end portion 143 connected in one piece. The main body 141 is positioned at an outer side of the frame 10, the first end portion 142 is rotatably connected to a top plate of the frame 10, and the second end portion 143 is detachably connected to a bottom plate of the frame 10.
When the locking member 14 rotates and locks the opening of the frame 10, the main body 141 of the locking member 14 abuts the trays 13, and the locking member 14 prevents the tray 13 from sliding out from the opening of the frame 10. When the locking member 14 rotates to the outer side of the frame 10, the tray 13 can be installed in the frame 10 or removed from the frame 10.
Even though information and advantages of the present embodiments have been set forth in the foregoing description, together with details of the structures and functions of the present embodiments, the disclosure is illustrative only. Changes may be made in detail, especially in matters of shape, size, and arrangement of parts within the principles of the present embodiments to the full extent indicated by the plain meaning of the terms in which the appended claims are expressed.
