DE2337478A1 - Transport container for knocked down cars - heavy gauge corrugated board with reinforcement ribs connected to grid base - Google Patents

Abstract

Combination transport container of light-weight construction material is for the despatch of heavy large volume industrial products in particular for knocked down motor vehicles. Heavy gauge corrugated board with vertically extending reinforcement ribs are used for the sidewalls connected to a trellis grid base. The sidewalls are connected to stiffening and connecting elements which avoid damage to the waterproof outer skin and which protect the sensitive intersecting edges and other sensitive points of the corrugated board from atmospheric influences.

Combination shipping container

The invention relates to a combination shipping container in Lightweight construction for shipping heavy, spacious workpieces, especially for shipping entire motor vehicles that have been dismantled into individual parts

Up to now, such automobile parts have been shipped in 10 mm thick Canadian plywood crates. On the one hand these plywood have become too expensive and on the other hand the largest delivered panels were too small, in order to be able to produce boxes of the required size from them without fragmenting them.

The object of the invention is to build boxes of appropriate size in lightweight construction with the aid of corrugated cardboard and avoid the disadvantages of the previous costs, especially

special to build the boxes cheaper than before and to save as little space as possible for storing the required items require. Corrugated cardboard, in particular heavy-duty corrugated cardboard, wood and plastic, and to a lesser extent nails or staples and glue came into question as base materials for the containers according to the invention. Hit such raw materials should also be avoided that the waterproof outer skin of the corrugated cardboard is damaged, and also should the sensitive cut edges of the corrugated cardboard are protected from the elements. Furthermore, the container according to the invention should be easy to assemble and nevertheless, in the assembled state, should provide sufficient support for the heavy parts to be shipped in it.

This object is achieved by the invention in that corrugated cardboard, preferably heavy-duty corrugated cardboard, with vertically extending cantilevers is used for the soite walls connected to a slatted floor, and the side walls are connected with pre-stiffening and connecting elements that prevent damage to the waterproof outer skin - for example by nailing. and protect the sensitive cut edges as well as other weather-sensitive areas of the corrugated cardboard from the effects of the weather. In a further embodiment of the invention, the side walls can be pasted on the inside with trough-shaped, vertically extending stiffening ribs made of corrugated cardboard into which wooden strips are inserted. May continue to be filled with the wooden strips, provided of corrugated cardboard existing stiffening ribs from inside the container forth with wooden slats which are stapled, nailed or glued together with the stiffening ribs and for supporting inserted into the container ro

Grates made of wood, for example, onto the a cardboard cover can also be used.

The stiffening and connecting elements of a corner can consist of a plastic profile with a hollow cuboid, the outer walls of which each have tongues extending beyond the square corners, which are spaced apart from the ones to be encompassed WandatKrke of the Sextenwiinde - those at their edges preferably Have reinforcement strips - face plastic bars. End sections of side walls are clamped between the tongues and the plastic webs, so that these catfish the corner connection of the combination shipping container is formed. The hollow cuboids of the plastic profiles can have a square or rectangular cross-section. In addition, the free ends of the plastic webs can each have one Have bends that engage behind the reinforcing strip attached to the relevant edge of the corrugated cardboard side wall. In this way the corner connection is secured, see above dan the cross winds not pulled out but only can be inserted in a vertical seal from top to bottom can. The reinforcement strips themselves can be placed under the tongue be nailed up or braced because of the effects of the weather are switched off by the tongue cover. On the other hand, the reinforcement can also start with the end section the side wall of the corrugated cardboard could be glued.

To attach the slatted floor and to connect it to the side walls, the stiffening ribs, the wooden slats, the wooden strips or the reinforcement strips are expediently used, which can be appropriately attached to the does not let the point in question end with the corrugated cardboard, so that they can be glued, nailed or stapled to slatted frame parts. The slatted floor itself can with

Skids can be provided for retracting lifting devices and the skids can be cut-outs for retracting the lifting devices vertically have to the longitudinal direction of the runners.

The whole combination shipping container is raised by one Completed plastic lid that overlaps the side walls, so that rain flows off the sides of the lid. Of the The plastic lid is made of two layers with an intermediate layer in the manner of corrugated cardboard to stiffen it. In addition, the plastic cover can be used to stiffen it Another light slatted frame with a larger distance between the slats be inserted.

Cs can now also be that very large boxes are required, the side surfaces of which are larger than the commercially available ones available corrugated cardboard parts. In this case the corrugated cardboard side parts have to be extended laterally, i.e. et, has to be on another piece of corrugated cardboard can be attached. An I-shaped plastic part is used to connect the two corrugated board parts to be joined together. which represents the connection for two corrugated board parts forming a side wall. The end sections of the two side wall parts to be joined together can be pushed into this I-shaped plastic profile,

Instead of the plastic profiles, profiles can also be made of one other suitable material can be used. It is also possible to use metal profiles or light metal profiles or other profiles that can be produced by injection molding.

The invention will be explained in more detail in the following description with reference to an exemplary embodiment shown in the drawing

so that a heavy floor slatted frame 22 can be connected in a suitable manner, for example by nailing the abutting surfaces. The floor slatted frame 22 is provided with runners 23 for the insertion of lifting devices. In these runners 23, cutouts 2k are provided so that the lifting devices can also be retracted perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the runners.

So that the combination shipping container can also be sealed at the top, one of the side walls is there 1 overarching plastic cover 25 completed. This plastic cover has two layers with an intermediate layer 26 in the manner of corrugated cardboard. Even A very light slatted frame 27 can also be inserted into this plastic cover to stiffen it.

It may now be possible that shipping containers are required with side surfaces that have the dimensions of the usually available heavy corrugated cardboard. Then it is necessary to make the side walls from several pieces of corrugated cardboard put together. An I-shaped one is used for this purpose Plastic profile 28 with the di · connection for two one Side wall forming corrugated cardboard parts is produced.
