Box-shaped container, in particular
Storage and transport box

The innovation relates to a box-shaped container, in particular a storage and transport box, as it is for shelf storage with automatic loading and unloading devices as well as associated transport devices and / or conveyor lines is usable. In such a box-shaped container, two longitudinal walls and two transverse walls with a bottom form a trough-like one Body, the base-side support and guide elements for interaction with the support arranged on the shelves and has guide rails and at least on one head side in the area of the base and / or the transverse wall with engagement means is provided for the push-in and pull-out elements of the loading and unloading devices.

Box-shaped containers of this type - which are also referred to as so-called push trays or small parts pallets - are already known. They are usually made of sheet steel and have longitudinal and rigidly connected to the floor Transverse walls. These longitudinal and transverse walls are used for different needs with different, but unchangeable Board height manufactured. On at least one head side of this box-shaped container are in the area of the bottom and /

or the transverse wall, the engagement means for the insertion and extraction members of the loading and unloading devices are welded on.

In the known box-shaped containers of this type, it is disadvantageous that these with regard to the board height of their Longitudinal and transverse walls must be prefabricated differently and therefore when changes become necessary within the shelf storage that is already in operation cannot be used any further. The use of the well-known box-shaped Container requires a considerable technical effort.

The aim of the innovation is to create a box-shaped container of the generic type with little technical Effort - even afterwards - can be tailored to different needs with regard to the equipment of the shelf storage can.

According to the innovation, this object is achieved primarily by a molded part and a surrounding or Stiffening edge having a small height, pallet-like base body and can be opened up releasably through this as well as with it and also longitudinal and transverse walls that can be coupled to one another.

The pallet-like base body is for itself all ^: .n, i.e. without sharing the longitudinal and transverse walls, matched to the lowest construction height suitable for use in the shelf storage, while additional use of longitudinal and transverse walls of different heights means that it is suitable for further use in the shelf storage Construction heights can be set up.

A further development feature of the innovation is that the pallet-like base body with the circumferential or stiffening edge is formed in one piece and as coated with slippery material or made of slippery

Material of existing molded body, preferably as an injection molded body is made of plastic. This also eliminates the problem with known box-shaped containers, that serving as the bottom support and guide elements of these box-shaped containers areas for the interaction with the support and guide rails of the rack storage system and the associated transport devices and / or conveyor lines have to be constantly greased.

According to a further development of the innovation, the pallet-like base body can be molded onto and / or molded on its front side Stiffening elements, e.g. ribs or webs, are provided, at least those on or near its Stiffening elements lying along the longitudinal edges form the base-side support and guide elements. Are the ribs or webs designed stiffening elements on the pallet-like base body not on its longitudinal edges, but at a distance but provided in their vicinity, then there is the advantage that the material thickness of that provided in the shelf storage Support and guide rails are within the respective overall height of the box-shaped container and thus no additional ones Usable space claimed. In addition, in this case the ribs or webs can be used as alignment elements with the mutually aligned

turned longitudinal edges of the support and guide rails work together, in a particularly advantageous manner when they have bevels at their ends that provide centering effect of the pallet-like base body. On the transport devices and / or conveyor lines, they form in the longitudinal direction oriented stiffening ribs or webs effective skids.

According to the innovation, it has proven particularly useful if the pallet-like base body is made from plastic containing propellant is injection-molded because the resulting wall structure results in a low weight and high stability and thereby favors long-term use.

Another characteristic of the innovation is seen in the fact that the §

On the other hand, however, it is also possible to use the engagement means for j the push-in and pull-out elements of the loading and unloading devices by means of profile rails attached to the base body to form from metal.

According to the innovation, another important development of the box-like container is seen in the fact that the longitudinal and transverse walls consist of sheet metal and / or molded plastic parts, which have an angled support and holding flange on the bottom and have a stiffening bead at the upper boundary edge. The longitudinal and transverse walls designed in this way can be For example, by means of screws or also spring clips that can be pushed into suitable recesses easily and securely in a pallet-like manner Base body and / or on its surrounding or stiffening edge fix. In particular, however, it has proven itself according to the innovation, if the pallet-like base body on its upper side at least along the parallel longitudinal parts or else

or sleeves have / over which they with each other and / or with the corner areas of the pallet-like base body can be coupled via socket pins. In the latter case there is even the Possibility of coupling several longitudinal and / or transverse walls placed one on top of the other using socket pins, whereby these claw-like interlock at their edges facing each other. The locking of the socket pins in their position of engagement can, for example, by means of screwed-on nuts, but also by Transverse bolts or split pins inserted into holes and finally by snap rings indented into circumferential grooves will.

According to a further development of the innovation, it is also provided that the longitudinal and / or transverse walls are inwardly directed Have pairs of hooks, releasably indented into the longitudinal and / or transverse partition walls on the pallet-like base body can be.

FIG. 13 again in a three-dimensional representation a special embodiment variant for a box-shaped according to the innovation Container.

In Figure 1 of the drawing, for the sake of simplicity, only one such sub-area is shown from a shelf storage with automatic loading and unloading devices and associated transport devices and / or conveyor lines, in which a single, box-shaped container can be accommodated. Here, four shelf posts 1 can be seen, with a support and guide rail 2 being fastened between two such shelf posts 1. Figure 1 makes it clear that the two support and guide rails 2 are arranged between the four posts 1, lying at the same height. From Figure 1, but particularly clearly from Figure 2, it can be seen that the two support and guide rails 2 are each formed by an angle profile which is ^{attached with its one leg 2 1} and the inside of the post 1, while being other leg 2 ″ extends in a horizontal position away from the inside of the post 1. The two support and guide rails 2 therefore assume a mirror-image position to one another, as can be seen particularly clearly in FIG. which forms an essential component for a box-shaped container 4, as can be seen from Figures 2, 9 and 10. The pallet-like base body 3 is made as a molded part made of slidable material, in particular break-proof plastic, and has a flat surface at least on its upper side Floor 5 on which an upwardly directed umfassungs- or stiffening edge 6 is continuously connected in pieces. The circumferential or stiffening edge 6 has a relatively low height

The pallet-like base body 3 is overall, that is, with its bottom 5 and its Ümfassungs- or stiffening edge 6 as a single

lumpy injection-molded body made of plastic, preferably injection-molded from a plastic containing propellant, in such a way that although it has a smooth surface on all sides, it has a porous internal structure that is relatively small

} <■ Weight results in high rigidity and dimensional stability.

On the underside of its base 5, the pallet-like base body 3 is provided with molded-on and / or molded-in stiffening elements, for example two longitudinal ribs 7 and several transverse webs 8 located between them, as can be seen particularly clearly in FIG. The longitudinal ribs 7 run pa- ^; parallel to the longitudinal edges 9 of the pallet-like base body 3

and have a lateral distance 10 from these. This Ab-

l '< stand 10 is dimensioned in such a way that when a pallet

come to lie laterally outside the longitudinal ribs 7 and there reach under the floor 5 so that their material thickness is complete can be accommodated within the overall height of the longitudinal ribs 7. It can also be seen from Figure 2 that the longitudinal ribs 7 of the : Pallet-like base body 3 with the longitudinal edges of the legs

Base body 3 at. At least the longitudinal ribs 7 also serve a further purpose. They still act as a sliding or Abrollkufen for the pallet-like base body 3, if the & he is moved on transport devices, in particular the roller tables 12 of conveyor lines, as can be seen from FIG.

The longitudinal ribs 7 can also be used as stacking aids when several pallet-like base bodies 3 are stacked directly on top of one another are to be (Figure 4) and in the upper edge of the surrounding or stiffening edge 6 trough-like Depressions 13 are arranged and designed so that the stiffening ribs 7 toothed-like form-fitting in this engage (Figure 4).

Engagement means are located at least on one, but preferably on both, head sides of the pallet-like base body 3 14 for the push-in and pull-out elements 15 of the loading and unloading devices. In the case of the FIGS. 1, 3, 5 and 9 The illustrated embodiments are provided on each head side of the pallet-like base body 3 ~ white such engagement means 14, each in the vicinity of a longitudinal edge 9 are located and are designed in the manner of handle shells that are open on the underside.

In Figure 6 it is indicated that these are designed as grip shells Engaging means 14 can also only be provided in the region of the longitudinal center of the pallet-like base body 3, while Figure 7 shows that it is also possible to use them as grip shells designed engaging means to train so that they are uninterrupted almost over the entire length of the head side can extend. Finally, FIG. 8 makes it clear that it is also possible to replace the engagement means 14 with a metal To form lische profile rail, which engages under the bottom 5 of the pallet-like base body 3 with a profile leg and

is attached to this by screws or rivets.

Of course, it would also be conceivable / the engagement means 14 for the push-in and pull-out elements of the loading and unloading devices also to be provided in the form of hooks, stirrups or loops on the pallet-like base body 3. Important is only that these engagement means 7 have sufficient stability to allow safe insertion and removal of the loaded, pallet-like base body 3 with the help of the insertion and extraction of the loading and unloading devices to ensure. From Figures 2, 9 and 10 it can be seen that the pallet-like base body, especially then, if they are to be used for the storage and transport of small parts and / or bulk goods in larger quantities, if necessary, can be expanded to box-shaped containers 4 with a larger capacity.

To make this possible, special longitudinal walls 16 and transverse walls 17 are used, which are placed on the pallet-like base body 3 can be put on and can be detachably coupled with him and with each other.

As indicated in the left half of FIG. 2 by dash-dotted lines on the basis of the longitudinal walls 16, there are Prefabricated longitudinal walls 16 and also transverse walls 17 of different heights are available so that they are box-shaped Have container 4 created with a correspondingly different overall height.

The longitudinal walls 16 and the transverse walls 17 can easily be produced as molded parts from sheet metal. However, you can, as well like the pallet-like base body 3, also as injection molded parts, but optionally also as extruded parts made of plastic manufacture.

From Figures 2, 9 and 10 it can be seen that both the longitudinal walls 16 and the transverse walls 17 at the bottom with a angled support and retaining flange 18 are provided, while they have an integrally formed stiffening bead on the upper boundary edge 19 have.

With the support and holding flange 18, the longitudinal walls 16 and the transverse walls 17 are on the floor 5 of the pallet-like base body 3 placed in such a way that they are on the inside of the Umfassungsbzw. Stiffening edge 6 of the pallet-like base body 3 for Plant come. Screws or spring clips that engage in matching notches can be used to * connect the longitudinal walls 16 and the transverse walls 17 to the pallet-like base body 3. However, it is particularly useful if according to Figures 9 and 10, the pallet-like base body 3 on the top of its bottom 5 either along the longitudinal parts or along the transverse parts of its surrounding or stiffening edge 6 is provided with hook-like coupling notches 20, as can be seen particularly clearly from FIG. These hook-like coupling notches 20 can be made in one piece, for example by a corresponding configuration of the molding tool, directly be formed out of the bottom 5 of the pallet-like base body 3, in such a way that they with their free ends of the Inside of the surrounding or stiffening edge 6 facing are. Either the longitudinal walls 16 or the transverse walls 17 can then be hung in this coupling notch 20 as that in Figure 10 on the one hand by dashed lines and on the other hand by solid lines in connection with the Directional arrow is indicated. After either the longitudinal walls

16 or the transverse walls 17 in the fully extended Lines have been brought into position indicated in Figure 10, then the transverse walls running at right angles thereto

brought into bolt connection. To produce this bolt connection In the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 11, both the longitudinal walls 16 and the transverse walls 17 each have in the area their ends have notches 21, in the area of which bridge-like webs are shaped inwardly so that they each have hooking eyes there 22 form. Special coupling angles 23, as they are particularly clear, can then be inserted into these Einstecköse.22 FIG. 11 can be seen, engage with molded coupling hooks 24 from above, in such a way that all longitudinal walls 16 and transverse walls 17 are combined to form a closed frame which in turn locks to the pallet-like base body 3 and is coupled. The coupling angles 23 lie, preferably with a certain bias, on the inside of the j Longitudinal walls 16 and transverse walls 17 with their legs, while the connecting piece between the two legs is rounded or is beveled, so that correspondingly obtuse corner areas arise.

Deviating from the design of the corner connection between the longitudinal walls 16 and transverse walls 17 shown in FIGS. 9 and 10 a configuration corresponding to FIG. 12 is also possible. Here only the longitudinal walls 16 point in the area of notches 21 inwardly pushed through eyelets 22, while the transverse walls 17 have a bend 25 at their ends, which are molded with Coupling hook 26 is provided. The mode of operation of the coupling connection according to FIG. 12 is, however, basically that same as with the corner connection according to Figures 9 and 11,

In Figure 13 it is indicated that the longitudinal walls 16 and the transverse walls 17 can also be releasably connected to the pallet-like base body 3 by means of socket pins 27. To this Purpose are each at the ends of the longitudinal walls 16 and the transverse walls 17 sleeves or rollers 28 so offset in their Höhenläya integrally formed so that they can be brought into alignment with one another in order to pass through the socket pins 27.

then either screw directly into a thread in the corner areas of the pallet-like base body 3 or but a nut is screwed onto the end of the socket pin. However, it is also possible to use the free end of the socket pin 27 with a transverse hole for inserting a securing bolt or with a circumferential groove for receiving a rigging ring Mistake.

In the case of the design according to FIG. 13, there is also the possibility, with the aid of the socket pin 27, of several longitudinal walls 16 and / or To fasten transverse walls 17 sitting one above the other in order to obtain different rim heights for them a plurality of longitudinal walls 16 and / or transverse walls 17 according to Figure 13, it has proven useful if these on their each other facing edges 29 and 30, as it were, interlock in a claw-like manner, as indicated in FIG. 13 for the longitudinal walls 16 is.

However, it has also proven useful to have both the longitudinal walls 16 and the transverse walls 17 with inwardly directed pairs of hooks 31 to be provided in order to create the possibility for the insertion of partitions 32, with the help of which the of the longitudinal walls 16 and the transverse walls 17 can be divided into limited space, as can be seen from FIG. Through the Measures described above and shown in the drawings result in a considerable ability to vary box-shaped containers 3 and 4, in particular storage and transport boxes, they wxe for shelf] ager with automatic loading and removal devices and associated transport devices and / or conveyor lines can be used. A simple one and at any time - also at a later date - possible adaptation of the box-shaped containers to the respective required * conditions the shelving system is therefore easily possible.
