For the lockplate top is clamped on the free-end 60 of cover plate, pallet 3 has a slidably locking bar 61.The bossing 63 support locking ribs of locking bar one end.As shown in Figure 2, mobile stretch ring 33 just makes locking bar 61, and its bossing 63 and locking rib 65 can move on to the right from the left side, as shown in Figure 4.
As shown in Figure 4, when locking bar and locking rib on the left side position, locking rib 65 dead bolts prolong rib 55, when locking bar 61 and locking rib when move the position, limit to the right, unclamp latch and prolong rib.In latched position, locking rib 65 covers on the horizontal latch rib 55, and latch rib 55 stretches out between the pillar 53 of latch extension.
As shown in Figure 5, locking bar 61 moves on to right-hand member by direction shown in the arrow 6.Locking rib 65 unclamps latch and prolongs rib 55, and lockplate 13 just can be raised then.
Shelf 41 has a horizontal projection that has to lower extension 67, can stop the surface 69 of the bossing 63 of locking bar 61.Just can prevent that locking bar 61 from withdrawing from non-locked position shown in Figure 5 too much like that.
Fig. 5 has shown that also the internal layer 71 by cover plate 11 forms medicine bubble 35.The internal layer 71 of cover plate 11 is folding coming at free-end 60 places, is bonded on the skin 73 of cover plate.Fig. 5 has also shown a jut that inwardly stretches out 9, and this part is placed on the edge of cover plate, and with side edge thereof to pressing down, lifted intentionally at free-end 60 places up to cover plate.When cover plate was lifted, lifting free-end 60 can peel off side edge thereof from the below of jut 9.When lifting and put down cover plate 11, suppose that bending slight in the process of lifting just can peel off side edge thereof from the lower end of jut; And when cover plate closing, through when inner process extension 9, blocking the edge of cover plate.
Figure 6 shows that locking bar moves to left fully by arrow 68 directions, lock rib 65 so just in time under the perforate 43 of shelf 41.When beginning, by downward cover clamp center, make the cover plate lateral edges enter the below of the jut that inwardly stretches out 9 on the side plate of opposite, thus closure flap 11.Press the core 17 of lockplate then by the direction of pressing arrow 70, make lockplate 13 closures.Dip plane 56 on the latch rib 55 may be meshed with the inclined-plane 45 in the rectangle opening 43 on the shelf 41, makes latch extension 51 be positioned at the middle part.Continue to apply downward pressure, make inclined-plane 56 engage with locking rib 65 ramps 71, this makes locking rib 65, bossing 63 and locking bar 61 slide by the direction of arrow 66 to the right.This just allow horizontal latch rib 55 be inserted in locking rib 65 below, and latch extension 51 inserts below the shelf fully.When horizontal surface 73 lower slider of horizontal latch rib 55 at locking rib 65, the vertical component 63 and the locking bar 61 of locking rib will slide left by the direction shown in the arrow 68, prolong rib 55 and lockplate 13 at the latched position dead bolt, to fix cover plate.Lockplate 61 can move always, below latch prolongation rib 55 enters locking rib 65.
As shown in Figure 7, locking bar 61 and locking rib 65 are in latched position.Preferably, make locking bar 61 return latched position by a spring.Preferably, use flexible belt reed.
Fig. 8-10 shows that pallet 3 is in molded position.Pallet 3, lockplate 13 and locking bar 61 are formed by plastics in a die cavity, can do limited sideway movement.
Fig. 8 is a top perspective.Pallet 3 has a base portion 81 and has otch 83 material saving and that alleviate product weight.Central body portion 85 is interior to edge 87, elongated center drilling 86 and oval-shaped hole 88 around the center.Groove 89 on the edge 87 makes and can form cross bar 91, cross bar and locking bar 61 Unitarily molded shapings.Side groove 93 on the locking bar side 95 allows slight bending in the zone of cross bar 91, thereby can slide to the latched position 99 of cross bar 91 along direction shown in the arrow 97, and is shown in dotted line.Groove 101 on the side plate 95 of locking bar 61 makes it possible to form chute 103.Chute 103 and central body portion 85 integrally form.Inwardly stretch at inward flange 87 places that chute 103 divides from central division.Chute has thicker edge 105 and thin part 107.Thin part 107 forms a surface, can slide on this surface in the side 109 of locking bar 61.
The front end of locking bar 61 and the vertical ends element 63 above it and locking rib 65 integrally form.The inclined surface 71 of locking rib is used to be convenient to locking bar 61 pack into use location and secondary locking function.Vertical end member 63 side direction are connected on the flexible belt 111, and the end 113 of flexible belt 111 is connected on the panel of end construction, as shown in Figure 9.
Shelf 41 has side direction part 117 and core 119 of holding up.Pallet 3 lower portions 121 are connected on the front end-plate 14.On to side end 16, two vertical plates 123 and 125 extend between side plate 5 and 7.
Shown in the bottom view of Fig. 9, after pallet 3 is molded shaping, just can move to right locking bar 61 with stretch ring 33.The dip plane 71 of locking on the rib 65 will promote to form the inclined-plane 131 on the projection 133 of core 119 of shelf 41, so that the below of locking rib 65 and vertical component 63 projection 133 from the shelf is passed through.As shown in Figure 5, crew-served surperficial 67 and 69 prevent to surpass when locking bar from returning bossing 133.
When stretch ring 33 slided into the operating position on the right with locking bar, the lower surface 141 of cross bar 91 slipped over from the upper surface of the inside 85 of tray main body.The side upper surface region 109 of locking bar 61 is in the lower surface lower slider of the thin part 107 of extension 103.Thicker edge 105 provides end 145, to prevent locking bar 61 setover on locking direction.
In the place near end 14, shelf 41 has diaphragm plate 147, is used for supporting near the shelf of perforate.End 149 may be close to flexible belt 111, prevents to lock rib 65 setover on locking direction.Swash plate 151 allows flexible belt 111 elongations, bending or camber.
Figure 10 shows preferred pallet 3 top view that are in the position that is molded as.Increased strengthening rib 153 in the flexible belt 111, the part 155 and 157 on flexible belt next door is attenuate all.Strengthening rib 153 can prevent the axial warpage of flexible belt, with thin part 155 and 157, helps control crooked under the external force effect with rationally applying.
As shown in Figures 9 and 10, the edge of integrally formed pallet 3, lockplate 13 and locking bar 61 is a circular arc, can provide added strength to tear preventing like this; And when the user contacts be exposed surperficial, they are felt comfortably cool.
Figure 11 looks detail drawing for the end of amplifying, and shows lockplate 13 and latch extension 51 for make position.When locking bar 61 was moved to latched position, locking rib 65 engaged by making transverse ribs 55 and latch extension 51, stops and opens lockplate.
Figure 11 is a backplan, has shown clamping projection 133 and clamping face 67 with inclination fitting surface 131 in more detail.Locking bar 61 has one and cross member 91 opposed central recess 161, is used for reducing material and weight and increases flexible.
Figure 12 is a top view, and the detail, bottom that shows during to 13 lockings of Figure 11 lockplate is similar.Lockplate 13 is divided into Outboard Sections 19 and core 17 by crack 23.If have only the left side at center 17 or an Outboard Sections 19 on the right to be lifted, and do not lift opposite side part 19, hoisting force just can not fully send core to.Especially under the situation that locking bar is not retracted.Can shorten crack 23, make and lift a side 15 and just can lift core.
