Description

L'invention concerne une palette à plancher et semelle avec intercalation de pièces d'écartement, pour élévateur à fourche.The invention relates to a floor and sole pallet with spacing insert, for forklift.

Le but de l'invention est de procurer à prix modéré, avec facilité, une palette du genre décrit, capable de supporter des charges élevées.The object of the invention is to provide a moderate price, with ease, a pallet of the kind described, capable of supporting high loads.

Elle s'applique en particulier aux palettes à quatre entrées comportant trois pièces de distance par côté et une pièce de distance centrale. Une telle palette peut avoir comme dimension 1000 x 1200 x 168 mm.It applies in particular to pallets with four entrances comprising three distance pieces per side and a central distance piece. Such a pallet can have the dimension 1000 x 1200 x 168 mm.

Cette palette se caractérise essentiellement par des éléments de renforcement tels que tiges en métal ou matière synthétique, dont les extrémités, pliées ou disposées à angle droit, sont reçues dans les pièces d'écartement et dont la partie droite est en contact direct avec la semelle, le plancher ou la traverse.This pallet is essentially characterized by reinforcing elements such as metal or synthetic rods, the ends of which, bent or arranged at right angles, are received in the spacers and the right part of which is in direct contact with the sole. , the floor or the crosspiece.

Une autre forme d'exécution consiste en ce que la semelle, le plancher ou la traverse comporte dans sa face de contact avec l'élément de renforcement au moins un logement pour une partie correspondante de cet élément de renforcement. Une rainure pratiquée dans la face de dessus ou de dessous de la semelle, du plancher ou de la traverse reçoit la ou les ailes d'un profilé de renforcement en T ou en U par exemple.Another embodiment consists in that the sole, the floor or the cross member comprises in its contact face with the reinforcement element at least one housing for a corresponding part of this reinforcement element. A groove made in the top or bottom face of the sole, of the floor or of the cross member receives the wing or wings of a T or U-shaped reinforcement profile for example.

L'élément de renforcement se trouve ainsi ancré dans le bois et empêché de se déformer sous le poids des charges posées sur la palette. Il ne peut plus gêner le passage des outils de levage ou autres.The reinforcing element is thus anchored in the wood and prevented from deforming under the weight of the loads placed on the pallet. He can no longer interfere the passage of lifting or other tools.

D'autres particularités de l'invention ressortiront de la description suivante qui fait référence aux dessins ci-annexés dans lesquels :

  • La figure 1 représente une palette selon l'invention, en perspective.
  • Les figures 2 et 3 représentent la même palette en coupe respectivement longitudinale et transversale.

  • Figures 9 to 13 show in section the realizations of soles provided with a reinforcement.
  • Figures 14 and 15 show, one in perspective, the other in top plan, two variants of spacers.

La palette comporte un plancher 1 et une semelle inférieure 2 séparés l'un de l'autre par des pièces d'écartement 3.The pallet has a floor 1 and a bottom sole 2 separated from each other by spacers 3.

Le plancher 1 et la semelle 2 se composent chacun de plusieurs planches de bois.The floor 1 and the sole 2 each consist of several wooden planks.

Chaque pièce d'écartement 3 comporte un corps avantageusement en matière synthétique renforcée par des fibres de verre, formé par moulage. Un logement tubulaire 4 reçoit dans l'axe de la pièce d'écartement 3 un tube de sertissage 4a lequel traverse par ses extrémités libres d'une part le plancher et d'autre part la semelle et les réunit. Un autre logement 5 reçoit une extrémité 6 pliée à angle droit d'un tube 7 s'étendant d'une pièce d'écartement 3 à la pièce d'écartement 3 voisine et soutenant directement les planches du plancher 1. Avantageusement les tubes 7 de renforcement du plancher s'étendent transversalement aux planches. Chaque pièce d'écartement 3 comporte un tel logement 5 de part et d'autre du logement 4. Un autre logement 8 de part et d'autre du tube central 4 reçoit l'extrémité 9 pliée à angle droit d'un tube 10 s'étendant d'une pièce d'écartement 3 à la pièce d'écartement voisine mais cette fois-ci en contact direct avec les planche de la semelle 2 et perpendiculairement aux tubes 7 précités. Les tubes 7 et 10 peuvent être en métal ou en matière synthétique renforcée.Each spacer 3 comprises a body advantageously made of synthetic material reinforced with glass fibers, formed by molding. A tubular housing 4 receives in the axis of the spacer 3 a crimping tube 4a which passes through its free ends on the one hand the floor and on the other hand the sole and joins them. Another housing 5 receives an end 6 bent at right angles to a tube 7 extending from a spacer 3 to the neighboring spacer 3 and directly supporting the floorboards 1. Advantageously the tubes 7 of floor reinforcement extend transversely to the planks. Each spacer 3 includes such a housing 5 on either side of the housing 4. Another housing 8 on either side of the central tube 4 receives the end 9 bent at right angles to a tube 10 s 'extending from a spacer 3 to the neighboring spacer but this time in direct contact with the boards of the sole 2 and perpendicular to the aforementioned tubes 7. The tubes 7 and 10 can be made of metal or of reinforced synthetic material.

La matière synthétique utilisable pour les pièces d'écartement 3 et pour les tubes 7 et 10 peut être choisie parmi les polyesters, le polypropylène et le polyéthylène haute densité.The synthetic material which can be used for the spacers 3 and for the tubes 7 and 10 can be chosen from polyesters, polypropylene and high density polyethylene.

Aux endroits des pièces d'écartement 3, l'assemblage du plancher 1 et de la semelle 2 se fait par sertissage au moyen des tubes de sertissage 4a. Entre les pièces d'écartement 3, les planches sont reliées aux tubes 7 par des clous torsadés ou annelés 11 ou par des moyens analogues.At the locations of the spacers 3, the assembly of the floor 1 and the sole 2 is done by crimping by means of the crimping tubes 4a. Between the spacers 3, the boards are connected to the tubes 7 by twisted or corrugated nails 11 or by similar means.

Le tube de renforcement 7 est par exemple de section transversale rectangulaire et la forme de chaque logement 5 est adaptée à celle de l'extrémité 6 de façon telle que le bout libre de cette extrémité prenne directement appui sur la semelle 2.The reinforcing tube 7 is for example of rectangular cross section and the shape of each housing 5 is adapted to that of the end 6 so that the free end of this end bears directly on the sole 2.

Le tube de renforcement 10 est par exemple également de section transversale rectangulaire et la forme de chaque logement 8 est adaptée à celle de l'extrémité 9 de ce tube 10 de façon telle que son bout libre prenne directement appui sur le plancher 1.The reinforcement tube 10 is for example also of rectangular cross section and the shape of each housing 8 is adapted to that of the end 9 of this tube 10 so that its free end bears directly on the floor 1.

De préférence la partie du tube 10 qui s'étend entre les pièces d'écartement 3 est écrasée ou aplatie.Preferably the part of the tube 10 which extends between the spacers 3 is crushed or flattened.

La pièce d'écartement 3 se trouve ainsi renforcée par le tube de sertissage 4a, au moins une extrémité 6 d'un tube 7 et au moins une extrémité 9 d'un tube 10.The spacer 3 is thus reinforced by the crimping tube 4a, at least one end 6 of a tube 7 and at least one end 9 of a tube 10.

Les ouvertures pour l'engagement longitudinal et transversal des fourches d'élévateur sont délimitées entre les pièces d'écartement 3, le plancher 1 et la semelle 2. L'écartement du tube 10 facilite l'engagement des fourches dans le sens transversal aux planches du plancher.The openings for the longitudinal and transverse engagement of the elevator forks are delimited between the spacers 3, the floor 1 and the sole 2. The spacing of the tube 10 facilitates the engagement of the forks transverse to the boards. from the floor.

Dans la forme de réalisation représentée sur la figure 4, les logements 5 sont disposés au voisinage immédiat du logement 4 et, de ce fait, les logements 8 pour être hors de portée des logements 5 se trouvent à plus grande distance du logement 4. Il est cependant également possible de disposer les logements 5 et 8 à la même distance de l'axe de la pièce d'écartement 3 comme représenté sur la figure 6.In the embodiment shown in Figure 4, the housings 5 are arranged in the immediate vicinity of the housing 4 and, therefore, the housings 8 to be out of reach of the housings 5 are located at a greater distance from the housing 4. It it is however also possible to arrange the housings 5 and 8 at the same distance from the axis of the spacer 3 as shown in FIG. 6.

Comme représenté sur la figure 7, l'extrémité 6 pliée à angle droit peut s'arrêter à mi-chemin du logement 5 auquel cas ce logement peut recevoir une autre extrémité 6 pliée à angle droit d'un élément de renforcement 7 inférieur disposé au contact de la semelle 2. La solidité de l'ensemble se trouve augmentée et on peut d'ailleurs concevoir une disposition similaire au niveau des éléments de renforcement 10.As shown in Figure 7, the folded end 6 at right angles can stop halfway between the housing 5 in which case this housing can receive another end 6 bent at right angles to a reinforcing element 7 lower disposed in contact with the sole 2. The solidity of the assembly is increased and it is also possible to conceive of a similar arrangement at the level of the reinforcing elements 10.

Dans la forme de réalisation représentée sur la figure' 8, la semelle 2 comporte deux rainures 21 parallèles et longitudinales. L'élément de renforcement 10 prend, par sa partie droite, appui sur la semelle 2. Il a en section transversale la forme d'un U dont les deux ailes 12 sont reçues dans les rainures 21.In the embodiment shown in Figure '8, the sole 2 has two grooves 21 parallel and longitudinal. The reinforcing element 10 takes, by its straight part, bearing on the sole 2. It has in cross section the shape of a U whose two wings 12 are received in the grooves 21.

En variante, comme représenté sur la figure 9, la partie de la semelle comprise entre les deux rainures peut être évidée légèrement en tenant compte de l'épaisseur du profilé, de façon que la surface extérieure de celui-ci vienne à ras de la semelle 2.Alternatively, as shown in Figure 9, the part of the sole between the two grooves can be hollowed out slightly, taking into account the thickness of the profile, so that the outer surface of the latter comes flush with the sole. 2.

La description qui précède s'applique également aux planchers et aux traverses. On peut donc prévoir des éléments de renforcement 7 identiques aux éléments 10 et dans le plancher supérieur l ou les traverses, des rainures appropriées à la réception des ailes des profilés de renforcement.The above description also applies to floors and sleepers. It is therefore possible to provide reinforcing elements 7 identical to the elements 10 and in the upper floor l or the sleepers, grooves suitable for receiving the wings of the reinforcing profiles.

L'élément de renforcement de la semelle ou du plancher ou des traverses, au lieu d'être en métal peut être réalisé en matière plastique, par exemple en polyester chargé, du genre façonné par "pulltrusion" (société britannique dite Pultrex).The reinforcement element of the sole or of the floor or of the crosspieces, instead of being made of metal, can be made of plastic material, for example filled polyester, of the kind shaped by "pulltrusion" (British company called Pultrex).

Il peut avoir en section transversale la forme d'un T ou d'un U, par exemple.It can have a T-shaped cross section or a U, for example.

Dans ce cas, la partie horizontale de l'élément de renforcement se place au contact de la semelle ou du plancher ou de la traverse et d'autres parties de l'élément de renforcement, verticales, prennent appui sur la semelle ou sous le plancher ou la traverse et sont maintenues par les pièces d'écartement.In this case, the horizontal part of the reinforcing element is placed in contact with the sole or the floor or the cross member and other parts of the reinforcing element, vertical, bear on the sole or under the floor or cross member and are held by the spacers.

En cas d'élément de renforcement profilé en T, la partie saillante ou aile du T est reçue dans une rainure correspondante pratiquée dans la face de dessous ou de dessus de la semelle, du plancher ou de la traverse (figure 11).In the case of a T-shaped reinforcing element, the protruding part or wing of the T is received in a corresponding groove made in the bottom or top face of the sole, the floor or the cross-member (FIG. 11).

En cas d'élément de renforcement en U, les ailes de cet élément sont reçues dans des rainures correspondantes pratiquées dans la face de dessous ou de dessus de la semelle, du plancher ou de la traverse.In the case of a U-shaped reinforcing element, the wings of this element are received in corresponding grooves made in the bottom or top face of the sole, the floor or the cross-member.

En variante, les profilés plastiques de renforcement peuvent être faits de telle manière qu'ils enveloppent les planches qui forment les semelles, les planchers et les traverses (figure 12). On peut compléter cet enveloppement-par un ancrage des bords latéraux dans le bois (figure 13).Alternatively, the plastic reinforcing profiles can be made in such a way that they wrap around the boards which form the soles, floors and crosspieces (Figure 12). This wrapping can be completed by anchoring the side edges in the wood (Figure 13).

L'assemblage de la palette, surtout en cas de renforcement en matière plastique, se fait avantageusement par collage.The assembly of the pallet, especially in the case of plastic reinforcement, is advantageously done by gluing.

Au lieu d'une pièce d'écartement à quatre logements convenant pour une palette pourvue de trois pièces d'écartement par rangée, on peut également concevoir une pièce d'écartement plus simple comportant deux logements 5 disposés à angle droit l'un de l'autre, au voisinage de ou en communication avec le logement 4 pour le tube de sertissage 4a ou son équivalent. De cette manière, la pièce d'écartement 3 disposée uniquement au coin de la palette peut recevoir les extrémités 6 et/ou 9 de deux tubes de renforcement 7 et/ou 10 disposés à angle droit. Cette disposition convient pour une palette plus légère à quatre pièces d'écartement.Instead of a spacer with four housings suitable for a pallet provided with three spacers per row, it is also possible to design a simpler spacer comprising two compartments. 5 elements arranged at right angles to each other, in the vicinity of or in communication with the housing 4 for the crimping tube 4a or its equivalent. In this way, the spacer 3 disposed only at the corner of the pallet can receive the ends 6 and / or 9 of two reinforcing tubes 7 and / or 10 arranged at right angles. This arrangement is suitable for a lighter pallet with four spacers.

Les pièces d'écartement peuvent être cylindriques ou parallélépipédiques. Comme équivalent du tube de sertissage on peut utiliser une vis, un tire-fond ou encore une tige d'acier munie d'une tête et dont l'autre extrémité est écrasée.The spacers can be cylindrical or parallelepiped. As an equivalent to the crimping tube, a screw, a lag screw or a steel rod provided with a head can be used, the other end of which is crushed.

La figure 14 représente une forme de réalisation de pièce d'écartement d'encombrement réduit, adaptée à une palette légère. Dans ce cas-ci, la pièce d'écartement de forme parallélépipédique a par exemple les dimensions suivantes : hauteur 100 mm, largeur 100 mm, profondeur 20 mm. Elle comporte un logement central 14 traversant et coaxial s'étendant d'une face d'extrémité horizontale 20 à l'autre et destiné à recevoir une extrémité 6 ou 9 pliée à angle droit d'un élément de renforcement 7 ou 10 et, de part et d'autre du logement 14 un tube de sertissage 15. Le logement central 14 est de section transversale rectangulaire et mesure par exemple 30 mm sur 15 mm tandis que chaque tube de sertissage est rond et a, par exemple, un diamètre de 15 mm. Les tubes de sertissage 15 dépassent des faces d'extrémité 20 d'environ 10 mm pour être reçus dans des perforations correspondantes pratiquées dans le plancher respectivement dans la semelle de la palette. Le sertissage des tubes 15 dans la palette peut se faire à chaud.FIG. 14 shows an embodiment of a piece with a reduced space requirement, suitable for a light pallet. In this case, the spacer of parallelepiped shape has for example the following dimensions: height 100 mm, width 100 mm, depth 20 mm. It comprises a central housing 14 passing through and coaxial extending from one horizontal end face 20 to the other and intended to receive an end 6 or 9 bent at right angles to a reinforcing element 7 or 10 and, on either side of the housing 14 a crimping tube 15. The central housing 14 is of rectangular cross section and measures for example 30 mm by 15 mm while each crimping tube is round and has, for example, a diameter of 15 mm. The crimping tubes 15 protrude from the end faces 20 by about 10 mm in order to be received in corresponding perforations made in the floor respectively in the base of the pallet. The crimping of the tubes 15 in the pallet can be done hot.

La variante de pièce d'écartement 3 représentée sur la figure 15 permet d'assembler des planches à angle bout à bout sans devoir diminuer leur épaisseur pour pouvoir les entrecroiser.The variant of spacer 3 shown in FIG. 15 makes it possible to assemble boards at an end-to-end angle without having to reduce their thickness in order to be able to intersect them.

A cet effet, la pièce d'écartement comporte une première partie de préférence arrondie 30 destinée à prendre appui sur l'une des planches. Elle se prolonge par une deuxième partie de préférence arrondie 31 destinée à prendre appui sur la planche contiguë transversale, chacune de ces parties comporte un logement respectivement 32, 33 pour un tube de sertissage ainsi qu'un ou plusieurs logements respectivement 34, 35, 36 pour les éléments de renforcement verticaux.For this purpose, the spacer comprises a first preferably rounded part 30 intended to bear on one of the boards. It is extended by a second preferably rounded part 31 intended to bear on the adjoining transverse board, each of these parts comprises a housing respectively 32, 33 for a crimping tube as well as one or more housings respectively 34, 35, 36 for vertical reinforcing elements.

Il est entendu que l'invention n'est pas limitée aux détails décrits concrètement ci-dessus.It is understood that the invention is not limited to the details described concretely above.
