Composite ribbed expanded polystyrene pallet and manufacturing method thereof

A manufacturing method of a composite ribbed expanded polystyrene pallet, wherein the composite ribbed expanded polystyrene pallet comprises a body and a base support, said base support clads sides and bottom of the body, said body is made of expanded polystyrene, said body comprises a pallet platform and plural supporting feet, said plural supporting feet are arranged on bottom of said pallet platform and form a whole piece with the pallet platform, plural reinforcing ribs are parallel provided inside the pallet platform, said plural reinforcing ribs are respectively arranged corresponding to said plural supporting feet;

• wherein the manufacturing method of the composite ribbed expanded polystyrene pallet comprises following steps:
• (1) prefabricating said base support of high-strength engineering plastic film according to a shape of the bottom of said body;
• (2) placing said base support in a concave mold which is matched with said base support;
• (3) placing said plural reinforcing ribs on a supporting bracket of a raised mold;
• (4) utilizing a mold closing apparatus to assembly the raised mold with plural reinforcing ribs and said concave mold to form a mold cavity;
• and
• (5) injecting pre-expanded polystyrene particles into the mold cavity to produce said body, meanwhile said body is combined with said base support to form said composite ribbed expanded polystyrene pallet;
• wherein in said step (3), said plural reinforcing ribs are fixed by the supporting bracket, one end of said supporting bracket is fixed to said raised mold, and another end of said supporting bracket is provided with a spring leaf, the spring leaf is configured to engage said plural reinforcing ribs, the free end of said spring leaf is curved, during production process, the free end of said spring leaf of said supporting bracket is elastically shrunken by compression and inserts into the process hole of said reinforcing ribs, and the free end of said spring leaf is elastically expanded upon being inserted into the process hole of said reinforcing ribs to fix said reinforcing ribs by the free end, after completion of forming process, the free end of said spring leaf of said supporting bracket is pulled out from the processing hole and removed together with said raised mold, while said plural reinforcing ribs stay inside said body, wherein the free end of said spring leaf of said supporting bracket undergoes elastic shrinking when being pulled out from the processing hole of said reinforcing ribs.
