Description

The invention relates to a transport device for securing stacked goods, in particular paper sheets, and a method for securing stacked goods, in particular paper sheets, on a transport pallet.

From the DE 10 2010 005 752 A1 is a transport device consisting of a transport pallet, known, in which a transported goods arranged thereon, in particular a barrel, is fastened by means of a tensioning belt, wherein the ends of the tensioning belt engage in slots or openings in a receiving surface of the pallet base.

From the DE 10 2008 046 122 A1 Furthermore, a transport lock is known, which comprises a lashing system for securing stacked goods on a carrier. In this case, a flat envelope engages on outsides of the stacked goods, which are braced against each other. The envelopes acting on the side of the stacked carriers are not connected or fixed to the charge carrier.

From the DE 20 2009 018 185 U1 Furthermore, a plastic pallet is known in which goods stacked on the pallet base are covered by means of a packaging film. This packaging film is hung on a jamming, which is located on side surfaces of the plastic pallet.

For the production of printed paper sheets, such as banknotes, several steps are required to print such a sheet of paper and / or to provide security features. It is necessary to transport paper sheets stacked between individual processing steps on a pallet. On such a pallet, for example, several thousand sheets of paper are stacked. These stacks become mechanically unstable with increasing stack height, since due to the superimposed printed images, in particular as film printing and metal strips formed security features, wavy or skewed stacks arise. This is based on the congruent superposed printed areas or applied security features or foil prints. This can lead to slipping of several sheets of paper from the stack, or to a complete slippage thereof, during transport. To overcome these disadvantages, individual giants, (five hundred bows), each offset by 180 ° to each other, were stacked on the pallet floor. However, this has the disadvantage that before the further processing of the paper sheet, the giant must be aligned again the same.

The invention has for its object vorzuvvschlagen a transport device for securing stacked goods, especially paper sheets, through which a large number of sheets of paper can be safely stacked and transported. Furthermore, the invention has for its object to propose a method for securing stacked goods, which is easy to use.

This object is achieved by a transport device with a transport pallet with at least two support carriers, which are each insertable into a receptacle in the pallet base, which extend after insertion into the receptacle substantially in the vertical direction, wherein the at least two support beams for securing stacked goods are positioned on the transport pallet on at least two opposite side surfaces provided receptacles. As a result, the goods lying one above the other in a stack are secured against falling down, at least in one of the two planar directions of extension of the stacked goods. Thus, a much higher number of stacked goods can be safely transported.

Preferably, the insertable on the transport pallet support carrier on a pallet shoe, which is insertable into a receptacle of the pallet base. As a result, the transport pallet can continue to be used as usual. In particular, in a return transport or storage these transport pallets can be stacked as usual one above the other. For transport protection, the support beams can be attached to at least two opposite side surfaces of the transport pallet as needed. By inserting a pallet shoe in a receptacle and a tool-free positioning and attachment of the support beam in the pallet base is possible.

Preferably, the receptacle is formed by a depression in the pallet base, which is covered with an insert. As a result, such a depression can be formed in a simple manner. In addition, existing transport pallets can be retrofitted.

Preferably, the insert is releasably secured to the recess, for example with a screw connection. This can be done in a simple manner, a mounting of the insert to cover the depression and be given a damage and replacement. The insert preferably consists of metal. As a result, a stable and resilient design of the recording is given.

The receptacle is preferably formed as a slot-shaped depression, which is extends in particular parallel to the pallet base. As a result, simple geometrical conditions can be created as well as the inclusion integrated in the pallet base and the closed bearing surface of the pallet base can be maintained.

Furthermore, the pallet shoe of the support carrier is preferably plate-shaped and can be positioned in the recess by insertion. This represents a simple and stable arrangement, which is also given a quick handling for positioning the pallet shoe in the recess of the recording. This also makes it possible in a simple manner a repositioning of the support beam to the pallet base to ensure a flush bearing of the support beam to the stack.

Preferably, the pallet shoe on its upper side a screening or corrugation. After inserting the pallet shoe into the receptacle, the support carrier, which preferably extends substantially in the vertical direction to the support surface of the pallet base, can be slightly tilted or tilted relative to the latter. By corrugation or raster on the pallet shoe can be made an attack on the insert and the position of the support bracket to be secured in the recording.

Preferably, the insert on a pointing into the recess bearing surface for the pallet shoe on a screening or corrugation. In particular, this screening or corrugation is adapted to that at the top of the pallet shoe, so that after insertion a self-holding arrangement is given with a slight tilting of the support bracket. Preferably, a kind of sawtooth-shaped arrangement of the grid is provided which is aligned such that a facilitated insertion of the pallet shoe into the recess is possible even with a tilted arrangement of the support beam, but a lead-out is locked in a tilted arrangement.

The recess covered by the use of the receptacle is greater in height than the thickness of the pallet shoe, wherein the thickness of the pallet shoe is dimensioned such that when tilting or tilting of the support carrier relative to the support surface of the pallet base, a wedging between the pallet shoe and the insert given is. As a result, a self-retaining fuse for the support beam to the pallet base of the transport pallet can be created. To release the support carrier from the receptacle is required that the support beam is manually transferred to a neutral position, in particular vertical position to the support surface of the pallet base, so that subsequently solves the top of the pallet shoe from the opposite side of the insert and the protective body is herausführbar ,

Furthermore, the recess of the receptacle is preferably formed longer or deeper than the pallet shoe, and the insert has a recess which adjoins the side surface. As a result, the two adjoining side surfaces attachable support body can be used arbitrarily far into the receptacle, in particular depending on a format of the stack. In most cases, the stacked good corresponds to the dimension of the bearing surface of the pallet base or is smaller. Due to the configuration of the receptacles on the one hand and the recess in use on the other hand, the distance of the support beams can be adjusted to a lesser extent than the extent of the receiving surface. As a result, this transport safety in use is variable. In addition, a continuous adjustment of the support body to the pallet base is possible.

The support beam preferably has a support body which is connected by a pin to the pallet shoe. This has the advantage that in particular this pin can be guided in the recess, so that on the one hand the pallet shoe completely immersed in the receptacle and on the other hand, the support body extends above the insert. As a result, the support body can extend to close to the support surface of the pallet base, so that even a transport security of the lowest stacked goods, especially paper layers, is possible.

The support body of the support carrier preferably has a contact surface, which points in the extension direction of the pallet shoe. The pallet shoe is inserted towards the center of the pallet into the receptacle, thereby pointing the contact surface of the support body to the stacked goods. Due to the contact surface, a secure reception of the stack and avoidance of damage to the side edge of the stacked goods can be made possible.

The support body of the support beam, which extends substantially in the vertical direction to the support surface of the pallet base, preferably has a length which is equal to or smaller than the smallest stack height, in particular for a pile turner. This has the advantage that when converting the stack of paper sheets by means of a pile turner from one to the next pallet a pile turner can be used without problems, which acts on two opposite side edges of the stack. Furthermore, it has surprisingly been found that even with a stack height that exceeds the height of the support body of the support beam, a secure stacking of such a stack of superimposed goods, especially paper sheets, is possible.

A preferred embodiment of the invention provides at the upper end of the support carrier, a holding means, in particular a lug, before, on which a tension belt can be fastened. As a result, the support carriers arranged at least on two opposite side surfaces can be clamped to the stack by means of a tension belt, wherein this tension belt extends along an upper side of the stack. Thus, the support beams can be at least slightly tilted towards each other, and the respective pallet shoe is fixed for use. Thus, the stack is secured to the pallet floor.

Preferably, a cover is positioned on the stack, which has substantially the flat dimension of the goods or the stack, and attached to the two opposing support beams, a tension belt which extends above the cover to secure the stack to the pallet base. As a result, not only a transport security, but also protection against manipulation of the Stapelguts (intervention protection) can be created. This is particularly advantageous in the production of security documents or documents of value, in particular banknotes.

The object underlying the invention is further achieved by a method for securing stacked goods, in which in each case at least one receptacle, which are provided on opposite side surfaces of the pallet base, a support carrier is used, so that between the at least two support beams of the Stack of goods is secured. As a result, the transport protection can be created in a simple manner after the goods have been stacked on the pallet base of the transport pallet by positioning the support carriers in the respective receptacle.

Preferably, a cover is placed on the resting on the transport pallet stack, a tension belt attached to the respective support beams and clamped by the strap the cover to the stack and secured to the pallet base. As a result, a protection against manipulation (intervention protection) can be formed, which can also be variably adapted to the stack height as well as to the flat dimensions of the goods.

To secure the stack 19 are at least on two opposite side surfaces 21 the transport pallet 12 support beam 23 intended. These at least two support beams 23 grab or lie on opposite sides of the stack 19 and thus secure it at least along the longitudinal direction, in which the at least two support beams 23 to the pallet floor 14 are arranged.

In 2 is a perspective view of the transport pallet 12 shown. This transport pallet 12 points in the pallet floor 14 for example, two opposing shots 26 on that to the side surfaces 21 the bearing surface 17 of the pallet floor 14 adjoin. It can also take two or more shots 26 along the one side surface 21 the bearing surface 17 of the pallet floor 14 be provided. Alternatively, on each of the side surfaces 21 of the pallet floor 14 , So both on the long side and on the narrow side, in each case at least one receptacle 26 be provided, through which the support beams 23 to the pallet floor 14 recorded and according to 1 can be aligned.

The pallet floor 14 is for example rectangular. This can also be square or polygonal.

In 3 is a schematic side view of the transport pallet 12 according to 2 and in 4 a schematic enlarged view of the recording 26 shown.

The recording 26 includes one of the bearing surface 17 of the pallet floor 14 outgoing and introduced recess 28 which of a use 29 is covered. This use 29 For example, can be solved by means of a screw to the pallet base 14 be attached and closes after fixing to the pallet floor 14 flush with the support surface 17 of the pallet floor 14 from. The use 29 is for example U-shaped, so that after positioning of the insert 29 at the same time an alignment and a positive positioning to the pallet floor 12 is possible. In the insert 29 is a U-shaped recess 31 provided, which differ from the side surface 21 out to the middle of the pallet.

At one to the depression 28 pointing side of the insert 29 is a grid or corrugation 33 provided, which in 4 is shown schematically.

In 5 is a perspective view of the support bracket 23 shown. The 6 and 7 show two more side views of the support bracket 23 , The support beam 23 includes a pallet shoe 36 , which is preferably plate-shaped. On the pallet shoe 36 is a pen 37 provided, a supporting body 38 receives. The pencil 37 and supporting body 38 are preferably at right angles to the palette foot 36 aligned. At an upper side of the support body 38 is a holding agent 39 , in particular a suspension lug, preferably provided.

The width of the pallet shoe 36 preferably corresponds to the width of the recess 28 or is slightly smaller, so that a simple insertion and insertion of the pallet shoe 36 into the depression 28 is possible. Furthermore, the length of the recess 28 greater than the length of the pallet shoe 36 educated. This is the pallet shoe 36 into the depression 28 can be used, and in addition, the pen 37 into the recess 31 reach. Thus, in addition to a lateral rotation of the support bracket 23 to the pallet floor 14 be possible.

At a top of the pallet shoe 36 is a corrugation or screening 41 intended. This corresponds advantageously with the screening 33 on the job 29 , This will after positioning the support 23 in the recording 26 a self-holding positioning of the support bracket 23 to the pallet floor 14 allows. The screening 41 of the pallet shoe 36 accesses the screening 33 of the insert 29 at. This allows an independent release or lead out of the support bracket 23 from the pallet floor 14 be prevented, leaving a self-locking pallet shoe 36 is trained.

The support beam 23 has a contact surface 43 on that towards the pile 19 is aligned. The further geometry of the support body 38 is arbitrary and may for example be rectangular or square.
