Description

Hand transport device (bucket cart)

Hand transport device for moving empty and filled containers: Hand transport devices of the current design are sack barrows and wheelbarrows .

Manually operated transport devices are often used in tree nurseries and gardening businesses, as well as in the construction and manufacturing industries. Large buckets weighing 25 kg to 200 kg and larger are difficult to transport when packed. The following are examples of where manual hand transport devices are used :

1) Nursery area ,

After the planting machine has infested the pots, they must be transported further. This is often done manually. Pots with plants are often needed for exhibition and sales purposes. Here, too, plants must be transported to exhibition and sales rooms.

2) Construction industry

On small to medium-sized construction sites, filled buckets with minerals are required. These buckets always have to be moved over short distances and in very confined spaces.

S) Manufacturing industry . &igr; ^: ■

Small parts from the manufacturing industry are often filled into buckets for further processing and transported on. The small parts are often delivered to the companies in baskets that are transported from the truck to the company premises.

4) Warehousing

For the storage and retrieval of small parts and small packaging units, buckets and baskets are used for manual transport.

The invention specified in claim 1 is based on the problem of creating a transport option that makes it possible to transport empty or filled containers without great physical effort and without the container having to be manually lifted by physical force onto a hand-held transport device such as a sack barrow or wheelbarrow.

With conventional tools (sack barrow, wheelbarrow) the weight is lifted from below. This must first be lifted onto the tool using physical strength, which not only takes time but also requires considerable physical effort. The objects to be transported can only be carried up to approx. 400 mm in diameter.

The simpler geometric arrangement of the components requires a much higher level of physical effort, which can be very stressful, especially for people with a weak physical constitution.

The aforementioned, generally known transport devices are used in almost all areas of manual transport.

A special design ensures that the containers can be picked up from the side in the edge and the recessed handles.

The invention is a bucket cart that allows buckets and baskets to be do not have to be moved manually during transport.

This is achieved by taking the picture from the side and not from below.

The decisive advantage is that vessels do not have to be lifted. A Another advantage is that due to the movable return arms, containers different diameters and shapes, also in the narrowest space.

The bucket cart enables large weights to be easily moved by one person can be handled. The load is only moved when it is picked up, and is much faster and safer to handle than from below.

The two spring-supported return arms of the bucket trolley adapt to the containers to be picked up with very little resistance, namely by moving sideways into the recessed grips, into the rolled-up edge or onto the angular (square) closed collar.

The load center and the load-bearing axle of the bucket truck could be arranged in an optimized way because, on the one hand, the wheels can rotate past the load to the load center, and on the other hand, the frame has a recess into which the load can swing, and the axle on the frame has so-called axle stubs. This ensures that the containers are always transported vertically. The interruption in the axle allows the load to swing in unhindered when being picked up.

The lifting arms of the bucket truck are attached to the frame in such a way that (see drawing on sheet 4/4) there is a weight reduction of 10:1 from point a to point b. To lift 200 kg (point a), the operator only needs to use physical strength for 20 kg (point b).

The uncomplicated and extremely easy handling results from the overall geometric concept.

Another option is to attach holders to the containers so that the bucket cart can also accommodate them.

It is also possible to attach the frame to forklifts, tractors, etc., which can then be used to move even larger containers using motor power.

An embodiment of the invention is shown in the figure on page 4/4 explained.
