Below, present invention is described with reference to accompanying drawing by way of example.Following description is illustrative, and its original idea is not that the wide region to claim or above-mentioned paragraph limits.
Description of drawings
In the accompanying drawings:
Fig. 1 shows the front elevation that is in first embodiment of the bracing or strutting arrangement under the expansion state according to of the present invention.
Fig. 2 shows the front elevation that is in second embodiment of the bracing or strutting arrangement under the expansion state according to of the present invention.
The specific embodiment
In Fig. 1, reference number 10 ordinary representations are according to first embodiment that is in the bracing or strutting arrangement under the expansion state of the present invention.
Bracing or strutting arrangement 10 comprises first load-carrying element (for example, bar) 12 and second load-carrying element (for example, bar) 14.And a pair of expansible mechanism 16.1,16.2 (below be referred to as 16) places between bar 12 and the bar 14.
Each expansible mechanism 16 all comprises first articulated element 18 (18.1,18.2) and second articulated element 20 (20.1,20.2).Articulated element 18,20 via trunnion 22 (22.1,22.2) each other pivot connect, trunnion 22 passes the middle part of each articulated element 18,20.Each articulated element 18,20 has inner 24 (24.1,24.2) and outer end 26 (26.1,26.2).
Each the inner 24 of articulated element 18,20 pivot respectively is connected on bar 12 and the bar 14, only to be pivotable with respect to bar 12 and bar 14.Slide block 28 (28.1,28.2) is installed on each outer end 26 of articulated element 18,20.Each slide block 28 is installed on bar 12 and the bar 14, only to do linear moving with respect to bar 12 and bar 14.Therefore, each outer end 26 of articulated element 18,20 all is not only can pivot but also can slide with respect to bar 12 and bar 14.
Should be appreciated that and move when articulated element 18,20 and be tending towards parallel or during contraction state, bar 12 and bar 14 move towards each other, and trunnion 22 moves apart from each other.Draw such conclusion thus:, then also can suppress bar 12 and bar 14 moves towards each other if this motion of trunnion 22 is suppressed.
Like this, bracing or strutting arrangement 10 comprises and is used to make trunnion 22 interconnected connecting devices 30.This connecting device 30 is configured to: prevent that expansible mechanism 16 from moving apart from each other thereby releasably lock expansible mechanism 16.
Connecting device 30 comprises a pair of transom (being adaptor union) 32 (32.1,32.2), and an end of this pair of connectors 32 is connected with each trunnion 22 and extends toward each other.Tie element 34 is used to make adaptor union 32 to be connected to each other and can be adjusted to tensioning state, and the motion that makes trunnion 22 be separated from each other like this is suppressed, and trunnion 22 is moved towards each other, thereby bar 12 and bar 14 are promoted and separates.
Tie element 34 comprises the flexible tie member that shows as chain 36, and this chain 36 stretches out one of from adaptor union 32.Nutted rod device 38 is used to connect chain 36 and another adaptor union 32.This allows to produce suitable tension force in chain, thereby inhibition bar 12 and bar 14 move toward each other.Should be appreciated that and to use the belt strap parts to replace chain 36.
Mounting knob 39 on bar 14 is so that conveying and supporting device 10.
In use, for example, a plurality of bracing or strutting arrangements 10 are placed between the sidewall of goods and freight container.Bar 12 can be positioned to against sidewall and bar 14 against goods.Then, operate nutted rod device 38 so that trunnion 22 moves towards each other, thereby bar 12 and bar 14 are pressed against respectively on sidewall and the goods.Should be appreciated that with the bracing or strutting arrangement 10 of right quantity and locate, can during transportation suppress the overexercise of goods with respect to goods.
In Fig. 2, reference number 40 ordinary representations are according to second embodiment that is in the bracing or strutting arrangement under the expansion state of the present invention.Except as otherwise noted, with Fig. 1 in identical reference number represent identical parts.
The applicant finds that in some cases, preferably bar 12 and bar 14 move towards each other under shock load.Should be appreciated that and can protect goods not damaged like this by bar 12 and bar 14, this be since under certain conditions bar can absorb and impact or the cause of vibrations.
In view of the above, setting makes adaptor union 32.1 and nutted rod device 38 interconnected springs 42 in bracing or strutting arrangement 40.This spring 42 is used to bracing or strutting arrangement 40 that required cushioning effect is provided.
The applicant thinks that bracing or strutting arrangement 10,40 boths are durable, and low cost of manufacture.Therefore, bracing or strutting arrangement 10,40 is specially adapted to the transportation of containerable cargo.In this application, in a single day a plurality of bracing or strutting arrangements 10,40 can be set in freight container, and unload after the goods, these bracing or strutting arrangements 10,40 can be stayed in the freight container in order to support next cargo.And, when goods being supported, utilize tie element 34 and nutted rod device 38 that sizable mechanical advantage is provided, thereby make bracing or strutting arrangement 10,40 easy operatings with bracing or strutting arrangement.
In addition, the foregoing description can suitably be deformed into like this: promptly, the outer end 26 of articulated element 18,20 only limits to pivoting action, and inner 24 all is not only can pivot but also can slide with respect to bar 12 and bar 14.In addition, fulcrum bar component can be set and replace tie element 34 between expansible mechanism.This fulcrum bar component can comprise ejection device, is separated from each other to promote trunnion 22, thereby bar 12 and bar 14 are promoted and separates.
In addition, the foregoing description can also be deformed into like this: promptly, three or more expansible mechanisms 16 are set, are particularly requiring under the relative long situation with the length of bar 14 of bar 12.
The purpose of foregoing description is to instruct those skilled in the art how to implement the present invention.Like this, the original idea of carrying out foregoing description is not the scope of restriction claim, and should to be considered as be claimed embodiments of the invention.
