FIGURE DESCRIPTION

The invention relates to a framework for temporarily storing and transporting general cargo.

Such a framework is provided with a pouch system (10), which comprises one or more flexible pouches (12) and which pouch system (10) supports or is mounted in or attached to the frame. These pouches (12) comprise a housing location for the temporary storage of general cargo. The pouches (12) are made from a web material (1). This web material (1) preferably comprises a non-woven. This has the advantage that the pouches (12) are at the same time softer, flexible, lighter and sufficiently inexpensive. This also has the advantage that the web material (1) acquires more volume, and thus more shock absorption, and that the web material (1) is less likely to be damaged by piece goods with sharp ends. The loaded general cargo is thus better protected.

Figures 1-3 show different pouch systems (10) with their pouches (12), according to a preferred preferred form of the invention. The pouch system (10) herein comprises flexible webs (16) which can be tensioned or hung between frame elements (13) of the framework via hanging means, wherein spacers (14), which also comprise flexible web material (1), the stretchable or hanging tracks (16) are sewn together via (double) stitching seams (9), so that a compartment layout is created. A window element (13) is, for example, a tube, profile or a rod.

Figure 1 shows a front view (Figure 1A) and a bird's eye view (Figure 1B) of a pouch system (10), according to a more preferred preferred form of the invention. This pouch system (10) can be hung via ring openings (7) provided for this purpose, through which a rod (13) can be brought. The general cargo must be loaded into the bag system (10) from above. The webs (16) and the framework are provided with velcro strips (6) which are suitable for effecting a velcro bond between the pouch system (10) and the framework.

Figure 2 shows a top view (Figure 2A), a front view (Figure 2B) and cross-sectional views (Figure 2C and 2D) of a pouch system (10), according to a more preferred preferred form of the invention. This pouch system (10) can be hung via hooks (8) provided for this which can slide on and / or in a profile (13) of the frame. The general cargo must be loaded into the bag system (10) from above. The insert in Figure 2B shows a detailed view of a hook (8). Figure 2C shows the cross-sectional view according to B-B in Figure 2A. Figure 2D shows the cross-sectional view according to A-A in Figure 2A. The figures show how different tracks (16) can be sewn via stitching seams (9).

Figure 3 shows a front view (Figure 3A) and a side view (Figure 3B) of a pouch system (10), according to a more preferred preferred form of the invention. This pouch system (10) can be hung via cylindrical loops (15) provided for this purpose, through which a rod (13) can be brought from the frame. The general cargo must be loaded at the front into the bag system (10). The webs (16) and the framework are provided with velcro strips (6) which are suitable for effecting a velcro bond between the pouch system (10) and the framework. The cylindrical loops (15) are provided such that the formed pouches (12) achieve a downward slope in depth, according to an even more preferred preferred form of the invention. This has the advantage that loaded piece goods move less quickly or may fall out of the pouch system (10).

Figure 4 shows a top view (Figure 4A) and cross-sectional views (Figures 4B and 4C) of a pouch system (10), according to a preferred preferred form of the invention. This pouch system (10) consists of at least one bottom part (17) and several pouches (12), which can be received on the bottom part (17), the pouches (12) being wholly or at least in groups in a closely spaced or folded state. The individual pouches (12) are formed essentially from U-shaped web material (1). The pouch system (10) herein comprises flexible webs (16), wherein spacers (14), which also comprise flexible web material (1), are sewn to the webs (16) via (double) stitching seams (9), so that a compartment layout is created . The pouch system (10) can support with the bottom part (17) on / in a frame. The general cargo must be loaded into the bag system (10) from above. In a more preferred preferred form, the webs (16) and the framework are provided with velcro strips (6), which are suitable for effecting a velcro bond between the pouch system (10) and the framework. Figure 4B shows the cross-sectional view according to C-C in Figure 4A. Figure 4C shows the cross-sectional view according to D-D in Figure 4A.

Figure 5 shows a cross-sectional view of web material (1), according to a preferred form of the invention. The web material (1) is multi-layered.

This has the advantage that the different layers of the web material (1) can bear other specific properties, so that the web material (1) carries a combination of these properties.

In a preferred preferred form of the invention, the web material (1) comprises three mutually coupled layers, i.e. an upper layer (2), a middle layer (3) and a lower layer (4). The web material (1) comprises two free sides (5), the top layer (2) comprising a free side (5) and the bottom layer (4) comprising a free side (5).

In a preferred preferred form of the invention, said interconnection of the layers comprises a non-chemical coupling.

This has the advantage that no additional material is applied, such as, for example, an adhesive bond. This means that the weight does not increase and there are no unevennesses that could cause scratches on loaded piece goods.

In a more preferred preferred form of the invention, said non-chemical coupling is an ultrasonic weld bond.

In the present invention, the term "ultrasonic weld binding" is understood to mean binding with the result of welding by means of high-frequency sound vibrations and applying pressure. This is carried out by an ultrasonic welding machine. Figure 6 schematically shows an ultrasonic welding process (30) according to an even more preferred preferred form of the invention. The top layer (2), the middle layer (3) and the bottom layer (4) are fused at specific places or couplings (32) by using a powerful concentrated high-frequency sound bundle. This has the advantage that the coupling of the three layers to the web material (1) can be carried out quickly, cheaply and without any unwanted substances released.

In a more preferred preferred form of the invention, the said mutual coupling of the layers proceeds according to a coupling grid (31), which coupling grid (31) comprises couplings (32) and which coupling grid (31) subdivides the web material (1) into a plurality of pockets (33). Figure 7 shows a partial view of a coupling grid. This has the advantage that these pockets (33) form pads, which ensure that the web material (1) becomes sufficiently firm, softer and more shock-absorbing. This also has the advantage that there is less chance that a loaded general cargo falls or slips out of the pouch (12).

In an even more preferred preferred form of the invention, the frequency for ultrasonic welding is preferably between 10 kHz and 70 kHz, more preferably between 15 kHz and 30 kHz, most preferably about 20 kHz.

In a still more preferred preferred form of the invention, a pocket (33) is bounded by a number of couplings (32), which number is between 3 and 100, preferably about 20.

In an even more preferred preferred form of the invention, the surface ratio of the couplings (32) to the web material (1) is between 0.01 and 0.10, preferably about 0.044.

In a more preferred preferred form of the invention, the middle layer (3) comprises a non-woven. This has the advantage that the web material (1) is softer, more voluminous and shock-absorbing. This also has the advantage that loaded general cargo is more protected.

In an even more preferred preferred form of the invention, it comprises non-woven cut polyester fibers. This has the advantage that the non-woven material becomes more recyclable, heat-resistant and cheaper. Polyester granules are melted in a spinning machine and formed into filaments.

In a most preferred preferred form of the invention, it relates to non-woven wadding (21).

In a most preferred preferred form of the invention, the length of a polyester fiber is between 38 mm and 76 mm.

In a most preferred preferred form of the invention, the thickness of the polyester fibers is preferably between 2.00dtex and 15.00dtex, more preferably between 3.00dtex and 5.00dtex, most preferably about 4.40dtex.

This has the advantage that the web material (1) becomes more resilient. This also has the advantage that the web material is dust-absorbing. In this way, dust does not remain on the surface of the web material (1), which reduces the risk of scratches or contamination on the loaded piece goods.

In a preferred preferred form of the invention, the top layer (2) and the bottom layer (3) comprise a fabric. Figure 8 shows a partial view of a fabric, according to a preferred form of the invention. In a more preferred preferred form of the invention, the fabric is a wad-bound fabric (20). In the present invention, the term "line-weft-bound fabric" is understood to mean a fabric obtained by alternately causing the unpare and the pair of warp threads (23) to emerge, with each warp thread (23) alternately over and under a weft thread (22). This has the advantage that the web material (1) becomes stronger. This also has the advantage that the web material (1) can be cut hot, whereby draining is drastically reduced.

In a more preferred preferred form of the invention, the fabric comprises polyester microfilaments.

This has the advantage that the fabric is recyclable. This also has the advantage that the fabric becomes more hydrophobic. This reduces the risk of staining and contamination of the web material (1) and thus increases the durability of the web material (1).

In an even more preferred preferred form of the invention, the linear mass of the fabric fibers is between 20 Td and 100 Td, more preferably between 40 Td and 60 Td, even more preferably about 50 Td.

In a preferred preferred form of the invention, the weight per unit area for the top layer (2) and / or the bottom layer (4) is between 60 g / m2 and 100 g / m2, preferably about 78 g / m2.

In a preferred preferred form of the invention, the weight per unit area for the middle layer (3) is between 60 g / m2 and 100 g / m2, preferably about 80 g / m2.

In a preferred form of the invention, the weight per unit area for the web material (1) is between 180 g / m2 and 300 g / m2, preferably about 236 g / m2.

Figure 9 schematically shows a breaking strength arrangement (42), a seam strength arrangement (43) and a tear strength arrangement (44).

The term "breaking strength" in the present invention is understood to mean the force at which a strip of web material (1) with a width of 50 mm tears, the strip being clamped at the extremities at a distance of 200 mm via 2 clamps (41) and the said force is applied to the 2 clamps (41) in the longitudinal direction of the strip and away from the strip. This corresponds to the IS013934 test which registers the fracture at maximum force and maximum extension.

By the term "MD breaking strength" is meant in the present invention the breaking strength wherein said strip in the longitudinal direction corresponds to the machine direction of the fabric (cf. MD: "machine direction").

By the term "CD breaking strength" is meant in the present invention the breaking strength, wherein said strip in the longitudinal direction corresponds to the direction perpendicular to the machine direction of the cloth (cf. CD: "cross direction").

By the term "tear strength" is meant in the present invention the breaking strength, wherein the 50 mm wide strip is clamped at a distance of 25 mm and wherein the strip is provided with a trapezoidal notch (40). This corresponds to the IS013937 test which registers the force to tear the strip.

By the term "MD tear strength" is meant in the present invention the tear strength, wherein said strip in the longitudinal direction corresponds to the machine direction of the cloth.

By the term "CD tear strength" is meant in the present invention the tear strength, wherein said strip in the longitudinal direction corresponds to the direction perpendicular to the machine direction of the cloth.

By the term "seam strength" is meant in the present invention the breaking strength, wherein two strips stitched together in a T-shape (45) are clamped on either side of the stitching seam (9). This corresponds to the IS013935 test which registers the force to tear the seam or stitched fabric.

By the term "MD seam strength" is meant in the present invention the seam strength, wherein said strip in the longitudinal direction corresponds to the machine direction of the fabric.

By the term "CD seam strength" is meant in the present invention the seam strength, wherein said strip in the longitudinal direction corresponds to the direction perpendicular to the machine direction of the fabric.

In a preferred form of the invention, the MD breaking strength of the web material (1) is at least 400 N, preferably at least 460 N.

In a preferred form of the invention, the CD breaking strength of the web material (1) is at least 250 N, preferably at least 300 N.
