Description

Technical field

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a transport container in the form of a lattice casing comprising a bottom from which lattice side walls protrude and whose front wall consists of two wall panels tilting forward about a common central horizontal axis and having a lid provided thereon. an edge protruding retaining tongue which partially extends and partially extends below the upper edge of the fixed side walls, with at least one closing bracket mounted on the front wall for blocking the hinged wall parts of the front wall, which is a plug pin displaceably disposed in its longitudinal direction This plug pin is mounted in hinge tubes extending from the bottom and at its upper end it can be locked together with the lid of the lattice box.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Transport containers of this kind, which are designed as grid cabinets, are known, for example, from DE-42 30 117 A1. These transport containers serve for transport and storage, especially for stacking various goods. They are used in particular as so-called interchangeable pallets with a lattice box in rail transport, where they allow goods to be sent in separate crates and that the goods delivered do not have to be unpacked or reloaded immediately with the consignee. In the case of such interchangeable pallets with a lattice housing, the otherwise necessary return of empty interchangeable pallets is also eliminated. Goods stored in such lattice cabinets can be sufficiently secured against being stolen or replaced by unauthorized persons by a locking yoke blocking both front hinged wall parts, which can be locked together with the lid of the lattice housing. In known grate cabinets, the hinged front wall elements are locked by means of plug pins which are arranged at the lower end of the closing bracket and by means of which the closing bracket is articulated and simultaneously displaced in the longitudinal direction of the plug pins in hinged tubes wardrobes. The known transport containers are further provided with two locking rods, which are counter-slidingly mounted on the lid of the transport box below its front edge and which, in their extended position, extend below their upper edges of the lattice side walls in their extended position. the locked bracket is locked by its bent inner ends, for example by passing a padlock through the corresponding through holes in the bent inner ends of the locking bars and in the upper end of the U-shaped closing bracket. At its upper end, the closing bracket is only connected to the grid housing cover in this closed position. When the padlock is removed when the lattice cabinet is opened, the connection between the lattice cabinet lid and the closing yoke also ceases. This can easily lead to a detachable closing bracket tilting forward when opening the interchangeable pallet with the grate box and then obstructing access to the grate box. Furthermore, the clamping of the closing bracket at its lower end is structurally demanding and also makes it difficult to handle the closing bracket in the sense that the locking bracket must be moved to its center working position when locked together with the grille housing cover. Only pull the plug pins at its lower ends out of their respective bearings by slightly twisting the locking yoke around its longitudinal axis.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The object of the present invention is to improve the construction of a lattice casing of this kind in order to make the lattice enclosure closure system easier to operate, in particular with respect to its proven stability and reliability. even less demanding in terms of construction.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

This object is solved and the drawbacks of known transport containers of this kind are largely overcome by a transport container in the form of a lattice box consisting of a bottom from which lattice side walls protrude and whose front wall consists of two wall panels tilting forward about a common central horizontal axis; which is provided with a lid having a protruding tongue extending from its edge which partially protrudes and partly extends below the upper edge of the fixed side walls, the front wall being fitted with at least one closing bracket for blocking the hinged wall parts of the front wall which is a plug-in a pin arranged at its lower end slidably disposed in the longitudinal direction of the plug pin is received in hinge tubes extending from the bottom, and at its upper end it can be locked together with the lid of the lattice housing, according to The invention is characterized in that the closing bracket is displaceably and articulated at its upper end to the front edge of the lattice housing cover and is thus permanently connected to the lid.

From a constructional point of view, it is advantageous if said hinge consists of receiving tubes arranged on the front edge of the grille cover and sliding hinge pins disposed thereon, which are arranged at the upper end of the closing yoke, and a locking flap is further provided at the front edge of the cover. It is hinged and hinged about a horizontal axis and which, in the hinged position, overlaps the hinge joint of the closing yoke which locks in this way and is lockable together with the closing yoke.

A transport container whose lid is provided with its two longitudinally displaceable locking bars which extend in its extended position with its outer ends extending below the upper edges of the side walls of the lattice housing, and in this extended position they are adjacent to each other with the inner ends lockable together with the closing yoke, according to the invention is further characterized in that a central transverse cut-out is formed in the center of the locking flap, into which the bent inner ends of these locking rods engage adjacent to each other when the locking flap is lowered; which are thus locked in their extended positions.

In order to secure the locking bars in their retracted position, it is furthermore advantageous if additional end transverse cut-outs are formed in the locking flap on the sides of the middle transverse cutout, into which the bent inner ends of these locking bars engage when the locking flap is retracted. in their retracted positions.

In order to secure the closing bracket in its central operating position, it is furthermore advantageous if two curved projections are formed on the front side of the locking flap which, in the folded position of the locking flap, surround the closing bracket in its middle working position and thus lock the closing bracket.

The locking of the transport container is made possible by the fact that through the curved inner ends of the locking bars, through holes are provided for passing through the padlock shackle or similar locking means when the inner ends are together.

Preferably, at the upper end of the closure bracket, a document pocket or compartment is arranged laterally, the access opening of which is closed by a cover wing formed on the locking flap when the locking flap is in the down position.

Another suitable solution is to provide a pocket or document compartment near the lock flap in the vicinity of the lock flap, the access opening of which is closed by a cover wing formed laterally on the lock flap when the lock flap is in the down position.

In order to disconnect the closing yoke, it is advantageous if the plug pins at the lower end of the closing yoke are so long that they are mounted in the lower hinge tubes of the grate cupboard with sufficient movement so that they can be twisted around the locking yoke remove the longitudinal axes from or insert them into these lower hinge tubes.

From the handling point of view, it is further advantageous if the closing bracket is flatly folded to the underside of the lid when the lid of the grate box is removed and is inserted with its lower plug pin into a locking eye which is arranged at a corresponding point of the underside of the lid rear edge.

The lid of the grate box is preferably designed so that the front edge of the grate cover slightly protrudes forward over the front wall of the grate box and the closing bracket mounted thereon and is provided with chamfered ramps on both sides.

A further embodiment of the transport container according to the invention is characterized in that the front wall of the lattice housing is bridged by a pair of closing brackets which are each provided with plug pins arranged in the opposite direction and retractable into and withdrawable from the respective upper and lower tubes on the lid. and the bottom of the lattice housing, the closing brackets being lockable in their most distant position from each other by a locking flap that is folded between their upper ends.

Another possible and advantageous solution is that instead of the upper bearing tubes and the hinge pins mounted therein, bearing lugs are formed at the upper ends of both closing brackets, through which a hinged axis extends, which is firmly mounted on the front edge of the grid housing cover.

Another alternative embodiment of the transport container, the lid of which is provided under its front edge with two longitudinally disposed locking bars, which in their extended position extend with their outer ends below the upper edges of the side walls of the lattice box and in this extended position according to the invention, on the locking rods, protruding locking pins are formed near their bent inner ends, which enclose the closing bracket on both sides and when the locking rods are in the extended position They lock in its central working position, with the bent inner ends of the locking rods extending through elongated slots in the front edge of the grid housing cover.

Another possible embodiment of a transport container which is designed as a lattice box which consists of a bottom from which the lattice side walls protrude and whose front wall consists of two wall parts tilting forward about a common central horizontal axis and which is provided with a lid provided with a protruding tongue extending therefrom, partially extending and partially extending below the upper edge of the fixed side walls, wherein at least one closing bracket, which is a plug pin disposed at its lower end displaceably in the longitudinal direction of the plug pin, is mounted on the front wall according to the invention, the closing bracket is designed as a closing bolt with the draining of the lower mounting on its back It is provided with at least one downwardly open L-shaped retaining thumb and which is slid from above onto the front wall of the grate cabinet, while at the same time it is in fork engagement with the front wall of the grille cabinet.

The closure bolt is preferably provided at its upper end with a retaining thumb that extends over the upper edge of the upper hinged wall panel and extends more than half the upper edge.

Advantageously, a plurality of retaining fingers are provided on the rear side of the barrier bolt, which engage the respective lattice meshes of the upper hinged wall panel and / or the lower hinged wall panel (FIGS. 15, 16).

The closing bolt is attached to the front edge of the grille cover in the manner of a hinge joint.

Furthermore, at its upper end, the barrier bolt is provided with a transversely arranged support arm and is lockable by a lockable lattice housing cover which, in its closed position, overlaps the support arm (Fig. 13).

In this case, it is advantageous if a storage pocket for the upper support arm of the barrier bolt is formed on the front side of the grid housing cover (Fig. 14).

In this case, the lid of the lattice housing is provided on its front side with two mutually opposing longitudinally extending locking bars which, in their extended position, extend below their upper edges with their outer ends and are locked by their inner ends adjacent to each other in this position. together with a latch.

The locking rods, through their inner upwardly curved ends, extend through elongated slots formed centrally in the edge of the lid of the grid cage and are provided with through holes for a padlock yoke or for a sealing wire.

The retaining means arranged on the lid of the lattice housing and extending over and below the upper edge of the solid walls of the lattice housing are formed by retaining tongues which are shaped at the edges of the lattice housing lid with a length equal to at least half the width of these edges.

The grille housing cover is preferably provided with a sleeve extending from above and from the front edge of the upper hinged front wall panel on its front side, and at its rear side it has a hinged flap which, in its folded position, extends over and below the upper edge of the rear and is lockable (Figs. 17 to 20).

The fundamental solution to the problem is therefore based on two different principles. The first principle is that, while maintaining the fastening of the closing bracket at the bottom of the grate box, the fastening of the upper end of the fastening bracket is additionally used, the upper fastening bracket connecting the closing bracket permanently to the grille cover. closed state of the grid cabinet. Thus, unlike the known lower attachments, the lower attachment of the closing bracket no longer serves as a hinge, but merely as a locking bolt for securing against theft.

A second design principle of the invention is based on the consideration that the lower attachment of the closing yoke can also be omitted because it no longer functions as a hinge, so that the closing yoke can instead be attached only at its upper end.

Thus, in this case, the attachment of the lower end of the closing yoke can be omitted and the closing yoke, which is detachable from the front wall of the grid housing, extends beyond the front wall in the manner of a bolt. In this case, the closing bracket is designed as a push-on, downward-opening retaining thumb, which can be mounted on the front wall of the grate box in the manner of a closing bolt.

First, the first principle of the solution according to the invention will be described in detail:

This solution results in a much more reliable storage of the lids of the lattice boxes and the closing brackets and, in particular, also greatly facilitates their handling when they are put on or removed from the lattice box. This is also due to the fact that when the lid of the grille cabinet is removed, the closing bracket can be swiveled to the underside of the lid and in this position ensure that one of its lower plug pins is inserted into the locking eye, the rear edges of the grille cover.

According to a further feature of the invention, the hinge joint may consist of receiving tubes arranged on the front edge of the grille cover and sliding hinge pins disposed therein, which are arranged at the upper end of the closing bracket, the hinge on the front edge of the grille cover a locking flap which, in its tilted position, overlaps the point of attachment of the closing bracket and locks it in this way, being lockable with it. If, as already mentioned, a lattice housing cover is provided with a pair of counter-directionally displaceable locking bars in its longitudinal direction under its front edge in a known manner, the locking flap phenomenon preferably has a centrally arranged transverse cutout into which the locking flap is folded. In this position, the bent inner ends of these locking bars engage in this position, which are thus locked in their extended positions. In addition, further lateral cross-sections can be formed in the locking flap on the sides of said central cross-section, in which the bent inner ends of the locking bars engage in the folded-out position of the locking flap when the locking bars are in their retracted position, locked in its retracted position. This also makes it easier to handle the lid of the grid housing in the removed state, since the locking bars which otherwise protrude laterally from the lid of the grid housing are thus protected against damage.

On the front side of the locking flap, two curved protrusions can be provided, which in the folded position of the locking flap in the manner of the fork surround the closing bracket located in its central operating position and thus lock it in this position.

Instead of a locking flap, a solution can be used in that the locking rods are provided with protruding locking pins near their bent inner ends, which enclose the closing caliper on both sides and thus lock it in its central operating position when the locking rods are extended.

According to the second principle of the solution according to the invention, no attachment of the lower end of the barrier bolt to the lower edge of the grating box or transport container is eliminated. Instead, the locking bolt is simply slid onto the front wall of the grid housing, taking care only to ensure that the retaining fingers on the rear of the fork bolt fit into the front wall. It goes without saying that the closing bolt in any case also extends beyond the lower hinged wall part of the grid housing to the extent that the lowering of the lower wall part towards the front is reliably prevented.

In its simplest embodiment, the barrier bolt may be provided with a retaining thumb which is shaped at its upper end so that it extends over the upper edge of the upper hinged wall element and extends at least below half the width of the upper edge. This measure, in conjunction with the upper hinged wall element, ensures that the closing bolt cannot be tilted forward from the lower hinged wall element at its lower end. In principle, a plurality of retaining fingers may also be provided on the rear side of the barrier bolt, which extend into the respective meshes of the lattice of the upper and / or lower hinged wall element. In this case, the holding fingers can be very short due to their greater distance from the point of attachment of the barrier bolt to the lid of the grid housing.

The barrier bolt is preferably hinged to the front edge of the grille housing cover and is therefore permanently hinged to the grille housing cover, according to the first principle of the invention, and cannot be lost. With the lid of the lattice housing removed, the closing bolt can be tilted to the underside of the lid and locked there with clips or the like arranged at a suitable location on the underside.

However, it is also possible to provide a closing bar at its upper end with a transverse support arm and to block the arm by means of a lattice housing lid which, in the closed position, extends over the support arm. In this case, a receiving pocket for the upper support arm of the barrier bolt is preferably provided on the front side of the grid housing cover.

In order to close the lid of the lattice housing, preferably two opposing, longitudinally displaceable locking bars are disposed on its front side, which in their extended position extend with their outer ends below the edges of the lattice side walls and with their inner ends which they are lockable together with the locking bolt. These locking rods can extend with their upwardly bent inner ends through longitudinal slots formed in the center of the lid edge of the grille cabinet and can be provided with through holes for a padlock yoke or a seal wire at these points.

Instead of the aforementioned counter-sliding locking bars, however, the grille housing cover on its front side can also be provided with sleeves extending from above and from the front at the upper edge edge of the upper hinged wall element. On its rear side, the lid of the grille cabinet is provided with a hinged retaining flap which, in its folded position, extends over and below the upper edge of the rear wall of the grille cabinet and is also lockable. Also in this case, the hinge-closing bolt can be hinged to the front side of the grid housing cover or can also be simply overlapped in its closed position and thus locked by the grid housing cover. and

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The illustrated grid box is conventionally provided with a closed bottom 1 on which vertical grid side walls 2 and a fixed rear wall 103 are fixedly arranged. The front wall 107 consists of two wall parts 2 ', 2' '. The base 1 is provided with four base feet 4, which recede a little inwardly relative to the side walls 2, so that these base feet 4, which are designed as box profiles, can be inserted into the grid when stacking such grid cabinets. the upper edge strips 5, which are designed as angular profiles, corresponding to the other grid housings located below. The base feet 4 also abut here. This interchangeable pallet, which is designed as a lattice cabinet, is further provided with protruding hinge tubes 6 on the bottom 1 in a conventional manner. The front wall 107 of the lattice cabinet consists of two wall parts 2 '. 2 ''. tilting forwards around a common horizontal axis 3, which is arranged in the middle of the height of the grid housing. It is therefore an upper wall panel 2 'and a lower wall panel 2' '. which are both tilting forward.

In order to secure the goods stored and transported in such grid cabinets against unauthorized access, the grid cabinet must be closed at the top and front. This closure is provided by a grid housing cover 7 and a closing bracket 8 which is fitted in the middle of the front wall 107 and blocks the wall parts 2 ', 2' '. The blocking of the hinged wall parts 2 ', 2' 'is in each case provided by the closing bracket 8 so that the closing bracket 2 overlaps or protrudes the hinged wall parts 2', 2 '' to the extent that it cannot be tilted forward . For this purpose, the closing bracket 8 is connected with its upper end to the lid 7 and its lower end to the bottom 1 of the grate box - see Figures 1 to 8, or the closing bracket 8 forms a closing bolt which is like above slidable on the front wall 107 of the grid housing - see Figures 9 to 20.

The lid 7 of the lattice casing, which preferably consists of a lattice mesh or also of sheet metal, is provided at the edges with protruding retaining tongues 9, 10 which partially extend over or extend below the upper edges of the fixed side walls 2. Specifically, the retaining tongues 9, 10 arranged on the rear side extend below the edge of the container, while the retaining tongues 10 arranged on the narrow sides of the grid housing lid 2 extend over the upper edges of the side walls 2. One of the retaining tongues 9 arranged on the rear edge of the grid housing lid 2; according to FIG. 5, it can be provided with a locking eye 11 of a circular or square shape on its underside, so that the lower end of the closing bracket 8, which is folded in this position, can be held therein and flat-lying on the underside knows In this way, the closing bracket 8 can be locked in its lowered position on the underside of the lid 2 ·

Two locking bars 13, 14 are displaceably disposed in the longitudinal direction opposite to each other on the front edge of the lid 2 of the grid housing. These locking bars 13, 14 can be displaceably disposed in the respective guide lugs 15. extending below the upper edges 2 '' of the side walls 2 of the grid housing in the immediate proximity of the corners of the grid housing, so that the lid 2 of the grid housing is thus secured against both pulling forward and lifting. The inner ends 13 '', 14 '' of the locking bars 13, 14 are bent upward and are in close proximity to each other in the extended position of the locking bars 13, 14.

A closing bracket 8 is also mounted on the front edge of the lattice lid 2 in the manner of a sliding joint. For this purpose, two hinges are arranged at the necessary distance from each other, in the form of hinge joints in the form of receiving tubes 16 into which These hinge pins 17 together with the plug pins 12 at the lower end of the closing yoke 8 ensure that the closing yoke 8 is guided or supported in a sliding manner at both its ends the only difference being that the closing bracket 8 is permanently connected to the sliding hinge pin 17 at the upper end with the grid housing cover 7 by means of the correspondingly longer upper hinge pins 17, while at its lower end it is provided with lower plug pins 12 which may be závěsových tr ubek 6. pulled out. All that is needed is that the clamping bracket 8 is displaced transversely to its longitudinal axis to one of its lateral end positions and then slightly twisted about its longitudinal axis in order to achieve lateral spacing of the plug pin 12 withdrawn from the respective bearing from the hinge tube 6, so that the opposite plug pin 12, which serves as a bolt, then by transverse displacement of the closing yoke 8 in the opposite direction can be completely pulled out of the opposite hinge tube 6.

1 to 6, a locking flap 19 is provided for locking the closing bracket 8 and the locking bars 13, 14 in their mutually extended locking position, which is mounted in the receiving lugs 18 at the front edge of the lattice cage lid 2. and which in its folded position overlaps the point of articulation of the closing bracket 8 on the cover 2, it allows to lock the closing bracket 8 and can be locked together with the closing bracket 8. It is also possible to lock it together with the bracket. For this purpose, the locking flap 19 is provided with a pair of curved projections 19 '. by means of which the locking flap 19, in its closed-on, fork-like position, encircles the closing bracket 8 in its central operating position and thus locks it in that position. Furthermore, as shown in particular in FIG. 2, three transverse cut-outs 20, 20 ' which, in the illustrated embodiment, with a pair of counter-extendable and retractable locking bars 13, 14 cooperate with the curved inner ends 13 ''. 14 '' of these locking bars 13, 14. The middle transverse cut-out 20 serves to engage closely adjacent the inner ends 13 ''. 14 '' when the locking bars 13, 14 are extended, while the bent inner ends 13 '', 14 '' engage the outer transverse cut-outs 20. 20 'in the retracted position of the respective locking bars 13, 14, so that the locking bars 13 can be used. 14 are also locked in their retracted position. In the curved inner ends 13 ''. 14 '' of the two locking rods 13, 14, the through holes 21 are formed in accordance with FIG. 3 for inserting a caliper of a padlock (not shown) or a sealing wire or cable, provided that the inner ends 13 '', 14 '' are close together . In this way, not only the locking bars 13, 14 but also the locking flap 19 can be locked together in the folded-out position of the locking flap 19, and the locking bracket 8, which is covered by the locking flap 19, can be locked therewith.

It can further be seen from FIG. 1 that a pocket or document compartment 22 can be provided at the upper end of the closing bracket 8. The access opening can be covered by the cover flap 19 '' when the lock flap 19 is in the down position. If such a pocket or document compartment 22 is formed according to FIG. 4 on the lid 7 of the grille cabinet, its access opening can also be easily covered with a cover wing 19 '' when the lock flap 19 is in the down position. The surfaces 23 on the front wall 107, as shown in FIG. 1, can be used, as is customary with such lattice cabinets or interchangeable pallets, as descriptive tables.

In particular, it can be seen from FIG. 1 that the downwardly curved front edge 71 of the grid housing cover 7 extends over the front wall 107 of the grid housing and slightly over the closing bracket 8 mounted on this front wall 107. Both sides are provided with bevelled bě ''. Thus, both the slightly protruding front edge 7 'of the lid 7 and, in particular, the closing yoke 8 are protected against impacts.

When the closing unit consisting of the lattice housing cover 2 and the closing bracket 8 is fitted to the fully loaded lattice housing, the lid 7 is first slid under the rear upper edge of the lattice housing 9 with its rear retaining tongues 9 and the lid 2 with its lateral retaining tongues 10 Then, the closing bracket Z, which is located on the lid 2 of the grate cabinet, is inserted by one of its lower plug pins 12 into the respective hinge tube Z at the bottom 1 of the grate cabinet, which requires a slight rotation or twisting the closing yoke 8 around its longitudinal axis. This is easily made possible by the length of the locking yoke Z and also by the clearance between the plug pin 12 at the lower end of the closing yoke 8 and the downwardly disposed hinge tube 6. If the locking yoke Z in said position is moved so far as to give a small distance between the plug and the corresponding hinge tube 6, the opposite plug pin 12 can also be inserted into the respective hinge tube 6 on the bottom 1 of the grate casing by reversing the shackle Z and shifting it. With the reverse order of steps, the clamping bracket Z can also be removed from the hinge tubes Z on the bottom of the grid housing by its plug pins 12.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 6, instead of one closing yoke 8, two closing yokes 8 are provided on the lid 2 of the grate box, which in this case are provided with only one lower plug pin 12 and an upper hinge pin arranged on the opposite side. For the sliding articulation of the upper hinge pin 17, the support tubes 16 are again arranged on the leading edge of the lid 2, while the lower plug pins 12 of the two locking brackets Z are axially displaceably mounted in the hinge tubes 6 on the grid housing 1. Locking flap

19, which is arranged on the lid 7 of the grid housing, in this case extends in the extended position of the two closing brackets 8 between their upper ends, so that even in this case the corresponding locking brackets 8 can be locked with the corresponding locking bars 13, 14. A padlock (not shown) threaded through the curved inner ends 13 " simultaneously. 14 '' of these locking bars 13, 14.

Instead of the upper receiving tubes 16 and the hinge pins 17 accommodated therein, simple hinge eyes can also be formed at the upper ends of the two closing brackets 8. Through which an axis, which is fixed to the front edge of the grid housing cover 7, passes. Such a hinged and simultaneously movable connection of the two closing brackets 8 to the lid 7 of the grid housing is possible in this case without any problems. The respective axis on the lid 2 on which the said eyebolts are rotated and displaced need only be long enough that the displacement path is sufficient on both sides for both closing brackets 8, i.e. such closing brackets 8 can always be their lower ends pulled out of the bottom hinge tubes 6 on the bottom 1 of the grid cabinet. In addition to the sliding hinge, said axis also provides the required permanent hinged connection of the two closing brackets 8 to the grid housing cover 7. Also in this case, when the lid 2 is removed from the grid housing, the two closing brackets 8 are flatly folded to the underside of the lid 2 of the grid housing, where they can be retained by their lower plug pins 12 and locked in the corresponding holding eyes A particularly advantageous and simple locking system for a transport container consisting of a lattice housing, which dispenses with a locking flap 19 articulated to the lattice housing lid 2, as in the previous examples, is shown in Figures 7 and 8. In this case, on the underside of the locking bars 12, 14, which are mutually oppositely disposed beneath the front edge 7 'of the grid housing cover, near their bent inner ends 13''. 14 '' fixed transverse locking pins 24 »25, which are thus arranged on both sides of the closing bracket 8 and in the extended position of the locking bars 13, 14 lock this closing bracket 8 in its central operating position. Inner ends 13 ''. 14 '' of the locking bars 13, 14 extend through correspondingly long elongated slits 26, 27 which are formed in the front edge of the lid 7 of the grid housing. In the depicted position of the locking bars 13, 14, their bent inner ends 13 ⁷ ', 14''are again close to each other so that, in this case, a yoke of a padlock (not shown) or a wire or cable with a seal . In this way, both the locking bars 13, 14 and the locking yoke 8 can be locked simultaneously in their operating or locking positions. In this case, the closure bracket 8 is provided with hinge pins 17 at its upper end, in the same manner as the already described and illustrated embodiments, by means of which the closure bracket 8 is displaceably and rotatably supported in the receiving tubes 16 on the underside of the cover 7.

Finally, FIGS. 9 to 20 show another embodiment in which, in contrast to the previously described embodiments, the lid 7 and the closing bolt 8 connected thereto by its upper end are used to close the grid housing. The lid 7 is provided at its narrow sides and at the rear with retaining means in the form of retaining tongues 9, 10, formed at the edges of the lid 7 of the grid housing. Said retaining tongues 9, 10 are in each case longer than half the length of the respective edges of the grid housing lid 2. However, in the closed position of the lattice housing cover 7, which preferably also has a lattice structure, it can also be formed by a sheet with grip recesses (not shown) separated by the rear retaining tongue 9 below the upper rear edge of the lattice cabinet rear wall 103, the retaining tongues 9 extend over or adjoin the upper edges 2 '' of the side walls 2 of the grid casing.

As additionally shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, the lattice housing cover 7 on its front side 8 '' is provided with two locking rods 13, 14 which are slidably mounted in the longitudinal direction in guide lugs 15 on the underside of the lid 7 lattice cabinets. These locking bars 13, 14 in their extended position engage with their outer ends 13 '. 14 'below the upper edges ²⁷ ''of the side walls 2 of the grate box, under its front corners. The inner ends 13 '', 14 '' of the locking rods 13, 14 are bent upwards and extend through the longitudinal slots 113, 113 '. which are formed centrally in the front edge or side 8 of the lid 7 of the grid housing and are offset relative to each other. In the extended position of the two locking rods 13, 14 shown in FIG. 10, their bent inner ends 13 '', 14 '' are close to each other. A fork-shaped retaining clamp 114 can be welded on one of the inner ends 13 '', which, in the depicted position of the two locking bars 13, 14, surrounds the remaining bent inner end 14 '' of the locking bar 14. In both arms of the retaining clamp 114 through holes 115 through which a caliper of a padlock (not shown) or a wire with a seal or other closure means can be passed, so that both locking bars 13, 14 and hence the grid housing lid 7 as a whole can be reliably locked in this position.

The closing bolt 8, which abuts the front hinged wall parts 2 ', 2' ', is provided at its upper end with a receiving eye 9', which is pivotally mounted on a mounting bracket 116 which is fixedly arranged on the underside of the front side 8 ' '' covers 2 of the grid cabinet. In this way, the closing bolt 8 is pivotally connected to the lid 2 of the grid housing. At the upper end of the barrier bolt 8, there is a downwardly open L-shaped retaining thumb 117 extending beyond the upper edge 118 of the upper hinged wall panel 2 'and extending more than halfway below the upper hinged wall panel 2' . As can be seen from FIG. 12 without further explanation, the latch 8 thus formed can be slid from above onto the grate cabinet front wall 107 and at the same time with its retaining thumb 117 be in fork engagement with the rear side of the grate cabinet front wall 107 hinged wall panel 2 '. By tightly engaging the upper hinged wall panel 2 'with the retaining thumb 117 on the rear side of the latch bolt 8, the latch bolt 8, which is rigidly articulated to the lattice housing cover 7, is secured against tilting forward so that the latch bolt 8 with its lower part 9 The lower hinged part 2 '' also reliably locks in the closed position.

The closing bolt 8 shown in FIG. 13 is provided at its upper end with a transversely extending support arm 9a ' by means of which it can be locked in its retracted position by a lattice locking lid 7 which extends beyond it. For this purpose, a storage pocket 108 is provided on the front side of the grid housing cover 7 which, in the closed position, extends beyond the transverse support arm 9a 'of the closing bolt 8 and thus enables reliable locking thereof. 14 are performed in the same manner as in the previous embodiments.

15 and 16 differs from the previously described closing bolts 8 in that they are provided with a plurality of retaining fingers 117b at their rear, but relatively short. below which the latches 119 of the upper hinged wall panel 2 'extend in a row. or the lower hinged wall panel 2 ''. so that the respective regions of the lattice are captured. Also in this way a sufficient blocking of the two hinged wall parts 21,2 '' can be achieved. It is understood that also in this case the closing bolt 8 could be provided instead of the upper receiving eye 9 'across the supporting arm 9a' extending and consequently held in the closing position only by abutting the lid 7 of the grid housing.

In the exemplary embodiment shown in Figures 17 to 20, the grid housing cover 7 on its front side 8 '' 'is provided with a pair of sleeves 120 that extend from the front and the front over the upper edge 118 of the upper hinged wall panel 2'. while at its rear side, a retaining flap 121 is articulated and extends over and extends below the upper edge 3 'of the back wall 103 of the grate cabinet in its stowed position according to FIG. The retaining flap 121 is connected to the trailing edge of the lid 7 by a hinge 122.

In the arm 21 'of the sleeve 120, which extends beyond the rear wall 103, two through holes 21 are again formed for the yoke of the dashed padlock 123, which passes through these through holes 21 and extends beyond the rear wall 103 of the grid casing.

In addition, an articulated yoke 16c is provided on the front side 8 '' of the lattice housing cover 7, by means of which the upper end of the latch 8 is also articulated therein. As is clear without further explanation, the lattice housing cover 7 can also be reliably locked by means of a closing bolt 8 which is articulated to its front side and a locking retaining flap 121.
