Definitions

  • the invention relates to a storage box for small parts with side walls, rear wall and bottom, which have a shape suitable for stacking a plurality of such storage boxes and preventing them from slipping against one another for the positive connection of the storage boxes, at least on the side walls upwardly projecting end strips are provided, and with an access opening on the front side, which can be closed by a cover designed as a hinged lid which can be pivoted forward about its lower longitudinal side.
  • Storage boxes of this type are used in many ways, namely for shipping small parts, storing them and transporting the small parts to their processing site.
  • Known storage boxes of the type mentioned above can be stacked one on top of the other, protected against slipping sideways, and have a slide in the longitudinal grooves of the side walls as a lid, which has a kink perpendicular to the direction of sliding, so that part of the access opening can also be closed with an angled section of this lid , which is provided on the front of the storage box.
  • the storage box thus has a corner-shaped access opening, which, however, only extends over the upper half of the front side, since the degree of refillability of the container is determined by the remaining front wall.
  • the “corner sliding lid” also has the disadvantage that access to the small parts is very poor when the storage boxes are stacked, since the front part must be “gripped” when the lid is partially pulled out in order to access the small parts. However, if the cover is pulled out completely, it is necessary to re-thread the grooves after the parts have been removed, taking the appropriate amount of time. In the non-stacked state and the cover pushed partially in the opening direction, small parts are pushed towards the front opening when accessed from above in a largely filled container and fall out between the fixed front wall and the front cover section pushed forward.
  • Another disadvantage of these known storage boxes is that only stacking columns can be produced, which, however, do not have any connection possibility from the box in the horizontal direction. This disadvantage is particularly serious when such storage boxes have to be transported in vehicles and therefore require complex fastening devices or special shelves or cupboards. Even in storage, such storage boxes can only be removed from above and not between the boxes, since the lateral connection to other storage boxes is not possible.
  • cantilever walls are arranged on both vertical sides of the hinged lid parallel to the side walls of the box for lateral limitation and to prevent the small parts from falling out laterally, namely outside the side walls, which slide along the side walls of the storage box when swiveling and slide with them at least up to overlap to open fully.
  • This known storage box can also be used to produce stacking columns, which, however, do not have any connection possibility from the box in the horizontal direction.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a storage box of the type mentioned, which allows a positive connection between boxes stacked next to each other of the same type in vertical and horizontal directions, but at the same time universally applicable and dustproof closable and good in stacked condition Accessibility of the small parts enables.
  • This object is achieved according to the invention in a storage box of the type mentioned at the outset in that the side walls, the rear wall and the bottom are firmly connected to one another and in that the shape is such a plug-in connection, in which one of the side end strips extends in the longitudinal direction and towards the outside a dovetail groove in the longitudinal direction and a dovetail spring of corresponding dimensions are arranged on the other end strip on the outside in the longitudinal direction at the same height.
  • a large number of storage boxes which are identical to one another can be connected to one another in a form-fitting manner without disadvantage for the accessibility of the small parts stored therein, and not only in the vertical direction, but also at the same time in a horizontal direction.
  • these can be easily transported in vehicles, for example as reserve boxes, and individual storage boxes can be pulled out of such a unit and taken to the respective work station. This is particularly advantageous if the distance between the vehicle and the workplace, for example a new building, is relatively large.
  • the storage boxes according to the invention can also be used advantageously for the dispatch of small parts by pivoting and fastening the hinged lid in the closed position after filling.
  • this positive connection which is effective in two spatial directions, is further improved by the fact that a guide web of rectangular cross-section is arranged on the inside of each of the side end strips and that on the outside of the lower part of the box side walls there is an insertion groove with a guide web corresponding to the guide web Cross section is provided in order to form a plug-in connection for vertical positive locking between two storage boxes with the guide webs.
  • the pivot axis of the hinged lid runs in the area of the lower front corner of the box.
  • the hinged lid advantageously extends over the entire front side of the storage box. After opening the hinged lid, the entire front of the storage box is available for removal or filling.
  • cantilever walls are arranged on both vertical sides of the hinged lid in the pivoting planes running in the direction of the storage box parallel to the planes formed by the box side walls, for lateral limitation and to prevent the small parts from falling out laterally, which slide along the box side walls when swiveling and slide with them overlap it at least until fully opened.
  • the hinged lid serves as a pouring device. By closing the hinged lid, the small parts located between the cantilever walls on the hinged lid are pushed back into the storage box.
  • the hinged lid can be snapped into different swivel positions by means of a snap-in system.
  • the latching system is advantageously provided between the box side wall and the cantilever wall facing it, an elevation in the one side wall snapping into one of a plurality of recesses in the other cantilever wall arranged on a circular path to the pivot axis.
  • the hinged lid with its cantilever walls can be opened more or less without parts falling out over the front edge of the lid.
  • By kinking the hinged lid parallel to the swivel axis small parts can be prevented from rolling out even when the hinged lid is fully open (approx. 90 ° swivel angle) due to the part of the lid still rising.
  • the snap-in system prevents the hinged lid from opening automatically, which is particularly important when it is being transported in vehicles and the resulting dynamic loads.
  • the universal applicability of the storage box according to the invention is promoted by the fact that at least two fastening bores arranged at a distance from one another are provided in a rear end strip. It is advantageous to arrange a downwardly extending tab on this bar at a distance and essentially parallel to the rear wall.
  • the storage box or the storage unit consisting of several storage boxes can be screwed to a vertical device, for example a shelf or a wall, or the storage box can be suspended by means of the tab in a corresponding, upwardly open angle of a vertical device.
  • the individual configurations of the invention, such as bores; Tabs and grooves the possibility of using and fastening the storage boxes in a manner other than that described.
  • the boxes can be placed against each other on the back and then screwed over the holes, or the longitudinal grooves in the lower part of the box side walls can serve to accommodate the free legs of angles, the other legs of which are fastened to a base plate.
  • the above-mentioned universality is further promoted by the fact that, due to the tabs, the rear end strip is widened, which is exploited when the storage box is screwed on directly the holes provide additional support torque against kinking downwards.
  • the exemplary embodiment has a storage box 1 closed on 5 sides, which can be closed by a hinged lid 2 which can be pivoted about an axis.
  • the hinged lid is mounted on a pivot pin 14 in the lower front corner of the storage box and has cantilever walls 16 for lateral limitation, which slide along the inside of the side walls 17 of the storage box 1 and prevent the bearing parts from falling out laterally when the hinged lid 2 is open.
  • a guide groove 6 is provided in a circle relative to the pivot axis, which is interrupted by snap-in webs 15 and into which a snap-in knob 7 engages, which is arranged on the side wall.
  • the hinged cover 2 is closed, and the latching knob 7 rests on a special web 18, as a result of which the hinged cover 2 is held in the closed position. Since the side wall 17 carrying the snap-in knobs 7 can yield elastically laterally in the area of the knobs, the snap-in knobs 7 are pushed out of the groove 6 by the web 18 when the pulling lid 2 is pulled in the opening direction, and then after pivoting the hinged lid 2 in the opening direction after Snap web 18 back into the groove.
  • the hinged cover 2 is opened, the more flexible the section of the cantilever wall 16, which lies opposite the snap-in knobs 7, so that it is easier to drive over the other webs 18 than at the beginning of the opening of the hinged cover, so that the hinged cover 2 is advantageously locked is strongest in the closed position.
  • the hinged lid 2 is shown in the closed position and is also indicated by 8 in the half-open position and 9 in the fully open position.
  • end strips 20, 21 and 22 projecting upward above the storage box 1 are arranged, which delimit a base area which receives the bottom of the storage box.
  • a longitudinal groove 10 with a dovetail cross section is arranged in the left end strip 21, seen from the front closed by the hinged cover 2, which is open in the longitudinal direction towards the hinged cover 2, and it is on the right side end strip 22 a spring 3 is arranged, which has a dovetail cross section corresponding to the groove 10.
  • the tongue 3 of one box can be pushed into the groove 10 of the other box from the front, as a result of which a firm lateral connection is created between the boxes due to the dovetail cross section.
  • guide webs 11 are provided on the inside of the side end strips 21 and 22, which correspond to insertion grooves 13 which are provided in the longitudinal direction in the lower region of the side walls. These insertion grooves 13 are open to the rear and, like the guide webs 11, have a rectangular cross section. When stacking, this can result in a positive connection in the vertical direction between two boxes 1, in that the box to be fitted is pushed from the front with its insertion grooves 13 over the guide webs 11 of the lower box.
  • the rear end strip 20 serves as a stop for the insertion. Holes 4 are provided in this rear end strip 20, and the strip 20 is extended downwards in sections by a tab 5 (FIGS. 1 and 3), with the tab 5 and the rear wall 19 a gap 23 is formed.
  • an insertion strip 12 is fastened, into which a document for identifying the small parts to be accommodated by the box can be inserted.
  • FIG. 6 show different examples of the use of the boxes. 6 to 8, the box 1 is individually fastened with the back to a wall 24, so that the box 1 projects horizontally into the room.
  • a cabinet rear wall or a frame made of sheet metal profiles can also be used.
  • a sheet metal profile strip 25 hat-shaped cross section is fastened horizontally to the wall 24 by means of a screw 26, and the box 1 with the rear flap 5 is inserted over the upper profile section of the profile strip 25, the lower section of the Profile strip rests directly on the rear wall 19 of the box and thereby supports it.
  • the storage box 1 is brought into the position shown by simply hanging it from above.
  • a sheet metal profile strip U-shaped cross section 27 is attached to the wall and is open at the bottom has unequal legs, of which the longer leg abuts the wall. The shorter leg overlaps the rear end strip 20 and thereby prevents the box 1 from tipping forward.
  • the supporting forces in the vertical direction are applied by a second sheet-metal profile strip 27 fastened to the wall below the rear edge of the box 1, which in turn can serve as the upper holder of a further box arranged below the box shown. With this type of fastening, the box 1 is brought into a position by slightly lifting it on the front side and thus removing it from the lower sheet-metal profile strip 27, in which the rear end strip 20 can be pulled out of the U-profile without problems.
  • the storage box 1 is firmly attached to the wall 24 by the rear end strip 20 being screwed to the wall by means of retaining screws 28 which penetrate the bores 4.
  • the tab 5 takes on supporting forces.
  • FIG. 9 it is shown how the insertion grooves 13 can serve for lower fastening of a single box 1.
  • Angle profiles 30 engage with one leg in these grooves 13, while the other legs can be fastened, for example, on a horizontal plane 29. Of course, these angle profiles 30 can also be parts of a shelf into which the box 1 can be inserted like a drawer.
  • the connection of storage boxes to one another is shown in FIGS. 10 to 12. 10, two storage boxes 1 are laterally connected to one another by the dovetail spring 3 being pushed into one another in dovetail groove 10. In Fig. 11, the two boxes are pushed one above the other in that - not recognizable here - the guide webs 11 of one box are pushed into the insertion grooves 13 of the other box. In Fig. 12, four such storage boxes 1 are put together to form a unit in the manner shown in Figs. 10 and 11.
