DE19724741A1 - Device for layering and transporting of lightweight material plates - Google Patents

Abstract

The device comprises of a rectangular base frame (1) with legs (2) as well as arranged pipe-shaped stamps (3) via the legs, that are insertable in the struts (4) of the side frames (5). The stamp has slits (6) gripped through leg-sided pegs (7) on the struts. The stamp has recesses dimensioned such that the leg sections of the struts can be rotatably moved from them. The struts have upper and lower holders (16) and a belt (9) that is clampable cross-wise via clamping devices (10). The lower struts may have holes whilst the upper can work together with spring caliper.

Description

The present invention relates to a device for storing and transporting stacked lightweight panels such as, in particular, expanded polystyrene (EPS) or from rock wool and the like used for insulation purposes Materials.

Traditionally, EPS packages are delivered on pallets, but for storage at the wholesaler or customer is unsuitable. The trans port security consists of either a wrapping or a tape. To ent If the plate or plate pack is removed, the fuse must be removed so that the remaining rest is not secured against slipping or falling out.

The present invention has therefore set itself the task to create said device that not only the safe transportation of Lightweight panels allowed, but also the fully packed ones as well partially emptied storage at the customer on safe, d. H. against falling out protected way, makes possible.

At the same time, the device should also be lightweight and lightweight Volume can be transported and can only be operated by one person.

This problem is solved with a device for storage and trans porting of lightweight panels that consist of a rectangular floor frame Feet and tubular stamps arranged above the feet whereby can be used in the struts of side frames. The stamps are with Slits provided by the pins provided on the struts on the foot side be penetrated. The stamps have Off at right angles to the slots Measures that are dimensioned such that the foot parts of the struts from these are removable. The stamps, supports and struts have Lagerele elements, and the side frames are inserted in the stamps held against tipping and resting on the floor frame after pulling out  bar. Upper and lower brackets for belts are provided on the struts can be clamped crosswise via clamping devices.

In this device, the side frames can be lifted out by simply lifting them up their holder in the stamps are exposed, the pins in the Schlit zen prevent it from being completely removed. Then the Seitenrah men on the floor so that it is flat and takes up little space Creation arises.

To transport the light panels, the side frames are reversed inserted into the stamp. Then the plates are z. B. packets of Floor frame laid, the surface area ideally such a multiple of the plate surface makes it possible to occupy without loss of space. The on stacked packages are removed from the side of the side frame supports. After reaching the full stack height, the tensioning device straps pulled and tightened so that the side frames put pressure on the Exercise the stack of plates and form a firm bond with them. The sides For this purpose, frames advantageously have horizontal or vertical battens relatively large gaps. Because the construction does not have high lateral forces exposed, it can of course be designed as a lightweight, what your hand availability during the return transport to the manufacturer / supplier of the plates easier.

The invention further proposes to make the side frames adjustable in height ren to z. B. to be able to adjust the loading space of trucks.

For this purpose, the struts of the sides standing vertically when opened divided frame and consist of interlocking pipe sections ent speaking diameter, with all tubes advantageous as square tubes are executed.

The determination of the desired height, usually an additional one greater height is sufficient, can be done simply by perforating the bottom  Strut section and a spring-loaded button that snaps into the perforation at the top ren, in the lower engaging strut section.

The user simply pulls out the upper frame part, using the buttons automatically jump into the next hole. To solve, only the Pressed buttons and lowered the upper frame part or inserted lying pushed.

As mentioned, the side frames can be folded down onto the floor.

The lower frame lies on the floor and extends in the inserted Condition of the struts up to close to the vertical stamper, which thus form a limitation. To the struts before rubbing on the floor To protect during transport, the overlying areas can be protected by a Plastic covering are protected. The struts in the lying state above Flanks of the struts can be provided with spacers be because they are outside during storage / transport and therefore not the stack hinder, then the upper frame rests on the spacers.

The devices themselves are designed so that they sta on top of each other are feasible, d. H. the stamps protrude from the side frames lying one on top of the other (Slightly), with openings under the floor frame that open the stamp can be placed.

In particular, the bottom has feet at the four corners below the stamp open at the bottom, with the stamps fitting into these openings.

However, the devices are of course also in a loaded state stackable on top of each other.

The base frame is preferably also made of light material and is for Bracing and protecting the stacked (insulation) material with sheet metal occupied, preferably for water drainage and possibly for weight reduction is punched.  

Brackets can be attached below the floor frame, in which the Forks from forklifts can be introduced.

Ultimately, it is suggested that the lower foot parts of the struts are difficult training and slitting the inner area of the stamp accordingly that the stamps have a substantially closed cross section.

The present invention is explained in more detail with reference to the accompanying figures.

Fig. 1 shows the bottom frame 1 including at the corners feet. 2 The frame 1 is provided with strips 14 on which sheets 12 are mounted in corresponding fields. These are punched.

Fig. 2 shows the underneath of the bottom frame 1 arranged feet 2 and provided for the fork-lift truck clamp 13. Above the feet 2 there are stamps 3 at all four corners, in particular made of square tube, which have slots 6 on both sides, which are penetrated by pins ( 4 , FIG. 3) located on pins. The punches 3 have upper supports 8 in the form of notches which center the struts ( FIG. 3).

Fig. 3 shows the device in the assembled state. In the stamp 3 of the base frame 1 , the side frame 5 are inserted and secured by pins 7 in the slots 6 . The struts 4 rest with the help of welded to the struts bearing elements 15 on both sides in the notch-shaped supports 8 of the punch 3rd

The struts 4 , 4 'are divided and adjustable in height, for which purpose a hole-key combination 16 is provided. Spacers 11 are located on the outside of the struts 4 , 4 ′. Furthermore, upper and lower brackets 16 for straps 9 are provided on the struts, which are drawn crosswise and fixable in tensioning devices 10 under tension. The crosswise course of the belts leads to a reduction in the horizontal contact force of the side frame 5 , but this is more than offset by the fact that such an arrangement can easily be operated by only one person, since the tensioning device in the lower (accessible) Area of the device can lie, so that far taller frames (2.5 m and more) can be erected and secured from the ground.

Fig. 4 shows a side frame with the struts 4 , 4 ', also with serving for stiffening and supporting the light plate packs strips 14th The Halterun conditions 16 are loop-shaped, so that the straps can be attached or pulled through conditions. There is also an actuator 17 for the hole / key combination.

The dashed lines indicate packages of insulation boards.

FIG. 5 shows two devices in the folded state stacked. The struts 4 , 4 'are pushed together against a spacer 11 as a stop, so that the upper parts of the side frame 5 lie within the stamp 3 .

The feet 2 of the upper device lie on the stamps 3 exposed by the folding of the side frame 5 , they are open at the bottom and pyramid-shaped in sections with oblique side faces, so that the feet 2 align when placed on the stamps 3 centered.

The upper side frames 5 rest on the spacers 11 of the lower ones.
