Transport containers made of cardboard, corrugated cardboard or similar foldable material

The invention relates to a transport container made of cardboard, corrugated cardboard or similar foldable material, the bottom of which can be connected to a pallet made of wood, compressed wood or similar material
is, with a two wing-like, pivotable and opposing second floor sections engaging behind flaps
comprehensive first floor section, which in its between the j | Pivot lines located central section on the pallet; "Stigbar, via a bottom cutout of the container in its
Inside insertable and with closing of the base cutout
from above against the second bottom portion of the container; , is cash.

Known transport containers of this type (DE-OS 27 09 337, DE-GM
78 16 691) have proven themselves in practice in many ways, especially due to the combination of corrugated board containers / _patent: lette, which opens up a wide range of applications, and
excellent stackability when empty due to the minimal storage volume. When placing the container on the pallet, however, it is necessary with these known transport containers to hold the wing flaps together using special aids such as clamps and brackets in order to pass them through safely and precisely
to be able to pass through the floor cutout and to prevent them from moving back from their insertion position as a result of the restoring forces and thus impairing rapid placement by catching behind the second floor section.

The invention is therefore based on the object without assistance special additional aids a simple assembly (erecting) of the container on the pallet and thus a

fast, one-man production of the network Allow pallet / container.

This object is achieved in that the first of the two flaps are provided with a clamping fold and the second flap with a recess receiving the clamping fold.

This makes it possible, compared to the known arrangements, without the aid of special fastening means such as additional ones Clamps or holding the two wing flaps upwards in a roof-shaped manner while the container is being put on, without holding them by hand, Their attachment to each other is achieved with the simplest of means, which at the same time allows a quick release after completion of the Allow Aufsetzvorganges, namely preferably with one Clamping fold in the form of a punched-in fold tongue, which is clamped into the recess and grips behind its edge can. As part of the production of the composite pallet / container, which is at this point with regard to the attachment of the bottom section need not be discussed in more detail on the pallet, the two wing flaps are folded up and by means of a clamping fold (Folding tongue) and recess attached to one another, so that the separate main container part by means of its cutout over these upstanding wing flaps can be guided. Then the current stop position is set from above by simply Lifting of the clamping fold or the folding tongue released; the wing flaps become the rear-reaching system on the second floor sections of the main container part.

Further advantages of the invention emerge from the following description the exemplary embodiments shown in the schematic drawing. It shows

Main part of the tank in the assembly scheme.

A pallet 10 can be of any conventional construction. Thus, the pallet shown in Fig. 1 has three parallel longitudinal members 11, which are connected to parallel support struts 13 via support blocks 14. Such a pallet usually consists of Wood, but compressed wood pallets 10 are also common, as can be seen in principle, for example, in FIG.

On the top of the pallet 10 is a first floor section comprehensive floor element 19 made of corrugated cardboard attached. This element 19 consists of a central narrow section 20, which is connected to the central carrier 12 in the longitudinal center area of the pallet 10. Above crease lines 21 are on the middle section 20 wing flaps 23, 24 articulated, which together with the middle section 20 approximately the floor area the pallet 10 cover. They are only essentially narrower than the outer contours of the corrugated cardboard by the thickness of the corrugated cardboard Pallet 10.

On one of the wing flaps, here the flap 23, there is a clamping fold in the form of a punched-in fold tongue 231, wäh- | end on the second wing flap 24 by punching out an in | Wing flap recess 241 adapted to its size of the rebate tongue is provided. As can be seen, the folding tongue 231, which is angled by kinking, can engage behind the edge of the recess 241.

The middle section 20 of the floor element 19 is connected to the middle longitudinal member 12 of the pallet 10 with the aid of head plugs 15, the recesses 16 in the floor element 19 \

reach through and engage in pallet recesses 17 in which they are fastened in a press fit. The recesses 16 surround upper shaft parts 154 of the head plug 15 in the form fit. The heads of the head plugs 15 are flat cap-shaped so that they hardly rise from the plane of the central section 20.

In the bottom view of a container 25 shown in FIG. 2, one recognizes its longitudinal side walls 30 and transverse side walls 31, which, like the other parts of the container, are part of a one that can be produced by punching in one (continuous) operation Are corrugated cardboard. On the longitudinal side walls 30 are longitudinal bottom flaps 34 and on the transverse side walls 31 are transverse bottom flaps 35 hinged via corresponding crease lines. The flaps 34 and 35 only extend over a small part of the total area of the bottom element 19 and thus the bottom surface of the container 25. The bottom surface of the inner dimensions of the container 25 corresponds essentially to the dimensions of the base element 19. Thus, one of the flaps 34 and 35 is a middle one rectangular opening 38 left in the bottom of the container.

Cutouts 39 are provided centrally between the transverse bottom flaps 35 and extend up to the corresponding transverse side wall 31 extend.

The placement of the container 25 on the pallet 10 and the attachment this is best seen in FIG. 3. First, the base element 19 is placed on the top of the pallet 10, see above that the recesses 16 in the base element 19 with the pallet recesses 17 are under cover. Then four head plugs 15 are inserted into the recesses 16 and hammered driven into the pallet recesses 17. Now the wing flaps 23 and 24 are bent up around the crease lines 21 and by engaging the rebate tongue 231 stamped on the wing flap 23 in the wing flap recess 241 in the wing flap

PE 24 locked in a roof-shaped position. This allows the container to be placed on the pallet extremely well easy to carry out, because the container 25 by means of the cutouts 39 over the so raised and independently held upright Wing flaps 23 and 24 can be placed on the pallet and the wing flaps 23, 24 without the risk their sideways evasion, e.g. due to the restoring forces inherent in the corrugated cardboard material, into the interior of the container 25 arrive. The wing flaps can be effectively attached to each other without any additional Aids is required, and also detach from each other again, with these operations easily and quickly by yourself must be carried out by a single untrained person. The long bottom flaps 34 and transverse bottom flaps 35 sit on the pallet 10. Now, by simply lifting the tongue 2 31 of at the top, the momentary retaining connection 231, 241 between the two wing flaps 23, 24 is released. The latter are towards folded back on the long bottom flaps 34 so that the bottom flaps 34 and 35 are enclosed between the wing flaps 23,24 and the surface of the pallet 10.

The container 25 is thus easily detachably connected to the pallet 10; such a release takes place in the opposite direction by folding up the wing flaps 23, 24, fastening them to one another with the aid of the rebate tongue 231 or the recess 241, removing the container 25 and then pulling the head plugs 15 out of their recesses 16, 17, so that one then the two container parts 19 and 25 and the pallet 10 are each available for other uses Has.
