DE2532362A1 - SLIDING BASES OR PALLETS AND METHOD FOR FITTING THEM TO THE FLOOR OF A CONTAINER - Google Patents

Description

The invention relates to a method for attaching sliding substructures or pallets at the bottom of a container to form a loading unit. But it also relates to the sliding substructures and the pallets themselves to be attached to the bottom of a container.

There are numerous constructions of pallets known which can be attached to the bottom of a container, such as To form loading unit, the goods that are to be transported are taken from the container. Such well-known Pallet assemblies are with the container in several ways tied together. For example, the pallets on the floor of the con-

tainers nailed or there are projections on the pallets, which insert themselves into counter-projections on the bottom of the container and are fastened therein by suitable arrangements, for example through sockets that are attached to the counter projections on the bottom of the container and through which locking pins be inserted. It is also common practice to tie wire around both the container and the pallet. None of these Fastening methods, however, are completely satisfactory.

The object of the invention is to provide a simplified way of attaching sliding substructures or pallets to the floor of a container.

The problem shown is solved according to the invention in that on the bottom of the container and / or on the loading deck of the sliding substructures or glue is applied to the pallet. The sliding substructures or the pallets can then be tipped over the container are attached to the bottom of the container; however, they can also be placed on the hall floor according to the appropriate arrangement Placing the container on the sliding substructures or the pallets can be attached to them.

The adhesive is preferably used in the form of an adhesive tape with a self-adhesive layer, one side of which is covered by a detachable protective strip and the other side of which is kept free. The exposed side of the adhesive tape is brought against the floor of the container or against the loading deck of the sliding substructure or the pallet, whereupon the protective strip is removed and the exposed adhesive surface is pressed against the loading deck of the sliding substructure or the pallet or against the floor of the container.

A further development of the invention consists in a loading unit, which is formed by a container with at least two sliding substructures or a flat pallet, which is attached to the container floor are attached by the method according to the invention.

The flat pallet according to the invention is characterized by a floor deck, a cargo deck and means that the cargo deck from the bottom deck keep a distance, as well as a layer of glue on the cargo deck with a removable protective strip on the adhesive layer. Such a flat pallet can be at the bottom of a container by simply removing the protective strip from the adhesive layer and pressing the pallet to the bottom of the container be connected to this.

It is also advantageous if the adhesive layer is self-adhesive Forms adhesive of an adhesive tape, one side of which is covered by a removable protective strip and the other side of which is attached to the cargo deck.

If sliding substructures are used to form the loading unit, it is advantageous if each sliding substructure has a floor deck, a cargo deck and means for spacing the cargo deck from the floor deck, with a layer of adhesive on the cargo deck is attached to the adhesive layer with a removable protective strip.

Two or more such sliding substructures can be relatively can simply be attached to the bottom of a container next to each other at a suitable spacing.

The bottom deck and cargo deck of each sliding substructure can be made of any suitable material with sufficient strength to such as wood, plastic or stiffened cardboard, and the elements separating the loading deck from the floor deck can be made of blocks made of wood, fiber or plastic material.

By using at least two spaced apart Blocks on each sliding substructure can easily create pallet arrangements in the manner of four-way pallets

will. Of course, they can also be spaced apart from one another arranged blocks by a single contiguous Bars are replaced, so that there are pallet arrangements in the manner of two-way pallets.

The invention is explained below with reference to the drawing, which illustrates an embodiment. Show it:

Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a loading unit from a container with two sliding substructures in an exploded view,

FIG. 2 shows a section along the line 2-2 in FIG. 1, enlarged,

Fig. 3 is a section through a roll of adhesive tape with a peeled piece of tape,

K shows an enlarged section through a part of a sliding substructure,

5 shows an enlarged section of a loading unit at the junction of the sliding substructure and the container,

6 shows a loading unit in elevation,

7 shows the loading unit according to FIG. 6 in a side view, at right angles to the representation according to FIG. 6.

The illustrated preferred embodiment of the invention comprises two slide bases 10 for attachment to the floor 11 one Container 12, which can be formed as a crate or cardboard box or cardboard, for example, in the container the goods to be transported are packed inside. The two sliding substructures 10 thus form a pallet arrangement on the container 12

The sliding substructures 10 are made of wood and consist of a long board-like floor deck 13, a load-bearing loading deck Ik and three in the ab-

stood to each other attached blocks 15 assembled, which are arranged between the floor deck 13 and the loading deck * \ k .

At the upper side of each cargo deck \ h a self-adhering adhesive layer 16 is provided. A removable protective strip 17 made of paper or foil rests on each adhesive layer 16. As can be seen from Fig. 3, to attach the adhesive layer 16 to a sliding substructure 10, a suitable length of adhesive tape 18 is pulled from a supply roll 19, on which the adhesive tape 18 is wound so that the adhesive side, which is not directly on the protective strip 17 is glued, is protected by the protective strip of the underlying layer of the adhesive tape roll. After a suitable length of the tape 18 has been peeled off, the tape 18 is cut off and the lower surface of the adhesive layer 16 which has been exposed is pressed onto the loading deck of the respective sliding substructure 10. The loading deck then carries a layer of adhesive 16 which is protected by the paper strip 17. By removing the paper strip 17 thus each skidbase 10 can be attached to the bottom of a container 12 such as shown in Fig. H and 5 is represented.

As can be seen from FIGS. 1, 6 and 7, the sliding substructures 10 are usually used in pairs} but can in principle any number of sliding substructures 10 on the floor 11 a container 12 are attached.

The attachment of the sliding substructures 10 to the floor 11 of a container 12 can either be in its overturned position or by suitably arranging the sliding substructures 10 in spacing relation on the ground or hall floor or another surface and then lowering the container 12 onto the sliding substructures 10 take place.

As can be seen from Figures 6 and 7, the spacing arrangement allows of the sliding substructures 10 the fork prongs 20 of a

belstaplers, the container 12 parallel to the sliding substructures 10, while the spaced-apart blocks 15 »those between the floor deck I3 and the loading deck 14 of each Sliding substructure 10 are arranged, the driving under the prongs 20 transversely to the sliding substructures 10 is allowed. It corresponds thus the construction according to FIGS. 6 and 7, a container with a conventional four-way pallet.

In deviation from the embodiment shown, two or more Sliding substructures are glued next to one another and in a spaced relationship to a surface or plate made of rigid material thus forming a flat pallet for conventional use.

Of course, further changes can be made without departing from the scope of the invention. For example the pallet arrangement can be designed as a structural unit, instead of being composed of two or more sliding substructures that are arranged side by side. The material used in the construction of the pallets or the sliding bases can also vary; for example plastic or corrugated cardboard or laminated cardboard can be used. Also can the spaced blocks I5 where only Two-way entry points for the fork-tines of a forklift truck are required through a single pass-through Block to be replaced.
