Definitions

  • the innovation relates to a storage and / or transport container made of plastic with four longitudinal and transverse side walls extending from a rectangular base to an enlarged, rectangular opening and with two flaps hinged in the area of the upper edges of the transverse side walls, which are made of a pivot position exposing the rectangular opening up to the transverse side walls can be moved into a pivot position partially bridging the rectangular opening following the transverse side walls, in which the distance between the mutually facing edges of the strips is smaller than the width of the container bottom between the transverse side walls.
  • Storage and / or transport containers of this type are known. They are used wherever, on the one hand, it is important to stack unfilled or empty storage and / or transport containers into one another to save space, while on the other hand, storage and / or transport containers filled with goods or goods must be stacked securely and stably.
  • the flap-like hinged strips are brought into the swiveling position which releases the rectangular opening up to the transverse side walls, while for the second case, there is the possibility of folding these flap-like strips into a pivoting position that partially bridges the rectangular opening following the transverse side walls.
  • the strips then form a secure stacking support for the storage and / or transport containers placed thereon.
  • Storage and / or transport containers of the generic type in which not only the containers themselves, but also the flaps assigned to them, are made by molded parts made of plastic, in particular polypropylene, have been in use in England and Canada for a long time Use.
  • a disadvantage of these known storage and / or transport containers is that the flap-like hinged strips are completely exposed on the outside of the transverse side walls in their pivoting position that opens the rectangular container opening up to the transverse side walls, while they are also exposed in their pivoting position that partially bridges the container opening Rest completely free above the container opening on the upper edges of the side walls.
  • the object of the innovation is to improve a storage and / or transport container of the type initially specified so that the flap-like hinged strips are protected within the given container contours in each of their two possible pivot positions and are also used on storage and / or transport containers can have the rounded corner areas at least in the wall sections delimiting their opening.
  • the set goal is achieved by that the strips carry at their ends transverse to their longitudinal bearing cheeks, which are pivotally mounted on the upper edges of the longitudinal side walls in bearing blocks located away from the corners of the container, that the strips are received and supported in their release-swivel position in a ram section which is open upwards in the manner of a channel on the upper edges of the transverse side walls, and that the bars are received and supported in their bridging swivel position with their ends and the bearing cheeks in troughs which are open upwards and towards the interior of the container, from upper edges of the longitudinal side walls.
  • the strips have a stepped profile cross section which is stabilized by molded-in transverse ribs and / or webs, and additionally contain a longitudinal channel , which forms a slide-in receptacle for a stiffening rod, a stiffening tube or a stiffening profile.
  • the flap-like hinged strips can be significantly stabilized in this way with regard to their load-bearing capacity.
  • the bearing cheeks of the strips each have two parallel legs, between which the bearing blocks can be inserted at the upper edges of the containers.
  • a bearing axis can sit between the legs of the bearing cheeks, which can be inserted into a bearing recess of the bearing blocks and can be fixed therein by a bearing bracket that overlaps them.
  • each bearing bracket can be designed as a latching bracket, the latching lugs or cams of which are assigned latching engagements in the edge sections of the container upper edges.
  • Another essential feature of the innovation - according to claim 7 - is also seen in the fact that the strips are provided with alignment stops which, in their bridging swivel position, form receptacles for the corner zones of the container bottom and thus ensure stack fixing between stacked storage and / or transport containers .
  • These alignment stops are - according to claim 8 - provided according to the innovation in each case at the ends of the recessed step of the stepped profile cross section of the bar so as to protrude.
  • a particularly advantageous design for a storage and / or transport container according to the invention results according to the invention - according to claim 9 - in that the upward edge portions of the stiffening collar form an approximately U-shaped bed for the strips, at least in their central region.
  • the U-shaped bed is stiffened by cross and / or node webs.
  • the value in use of a storage and / or transport container according to the invention can be further improved in that - according to claim 11 - below the U-shaped bed, the downward web of the stiffening collar has an interruption, which are assigned openings in the transverse side walls, in the Area the bed forms a grip strip that can be gripped through to the inside of the container.
  • the bar has a bead-like thickening at the free end of its cross-sectional web, which is in the release pivot position of the bar at a distance above the U-shaped bed and a handle for the Groin forms.
  • the storage and / or transport container 1 shown in the drawing is made in one piece from plastic, for example by injection molding in a corresponding shape. He points a substantially flat and rectangularly delimited floor 2, from which two longitudinal side walls 3 and 4 and two transverse side walls 5 and 6 extend, which delimit an enlarged, rectangular opening 7 with their upper edges 3a, 4a, 5a and 6a.
  • the longitudinal side walls 3 and 4, as well as the transverse side walls 5 and 6, thus have, starting from the bottom 2, an upward and outward inclined position.
  • a stiffening collar 8 is connected in one piece to the outside of the container 1, which is in the usual manner by means of ribs or webs 9 against the The outside of the longitudinal side walls 3 and 4 and the transverse side walls 5 and 6 can be braced, as is indicated in FIG. 1 in the region of the transverse side wall 5.
  • the stiffening collar 8 forms, together with the upper sections of the transverse side walls 5 and 6, an approximately H-shaped cross-sectional profile, as can be seen in particular from FIGS. 4 to 6.
  • This approximately H-shaped cross-sectional profile also extends around the corner regions 10 of the stiffening collar up to partially in the region of the two longitudinal side walls 3 and 4, as can be seen in the drawing.
  • the stiffening collar 8 Over the entire width of the transverse side walls 5 and 6, the stiffening collar 8 forms an edge section 11 which is open upwards in a channel-like manner and which can be seen particularly clearly in FIGS. 5 and 6.
  • the stiffening collar 8 along the longitudinal side walls 3 and 4 has a U-cross section which is open at the bottom.
  • a bearing block 14 rises from the bottom of each trough 12, as can be seen in FIGS. 2, 3 and 6.
  • the bearing blocks 14 are arranged within the trough 12 in such a way that they each lie somewhat behind a plane coinciding with the upper edge 5a or 6a of the transverse side walls 5 or 6.
  • fork-like bearing cheeks 16 are engaged via bearing journals 15, which sit at the ends of a strip 17 and extend essentially transversely to the longitudinal direction thereof, as can be seen particularly clearly in FIGS. 2, 3 and 6.
  • the strips 17 can be brought into two different pivoting positions relative to the storage and / or transport container 1, as can be seen in FIGS. 1 and 2 to 5.
  • one pivot position which can be seen in the right half of FIG. 1 and in FIGS. 2 and 4, the strip 17 is completely absorbed by the edge section 11 of the stiffening collar, which is open upwards in the manner of a channel, so that the opening 7 of the Storage and / or transport container 1 up to the transverse side walls 5 and 6 is completely released.
  • this release pivoting position of the strips 17 there is then the possibility of stacking several identical storage and / or transport containers 1 in the empty state in a space-saving manner, as is indicated in FIG. 4 of the drawing.
  • the strips 17 with their bearing cheeks 16 and bearing pins 15 are pivoted through 180 ° in the bearing blocks 14, then they reach the pivoting position shown in the left half of FIG. 1 and in FIGS. 3 and 5, in which they open the opening 7 of the storage and / or transport container 1 in the connection to the transverse side walls 5 and 6 each partially bridge.
  • the strips 17 lie with their end sections adjacent to the bearing cheeks 16 and also with the bearing cheeks 16 themselves supported on the bottom of the depressions 12 (see FIG. 5), while the strips 17 pass through the openings 13 in the depressions 12 Push through the area of the opening 7 at a distance in front of the transverse side walls 5 and 6.
  • their mutually facing longitudinal edges are at a distance from one another which is smaller than the width of the container base 2 between the adjoining transverse side walls 5 and 6.
  • the particularly advantageous mounting of the strips 17 in the area of the stiffening collar 8 makes it possible to provide the end section of the strips in the transition areas to the bearing cheeks 16 with rounded sections 18. Since the rounded sections 18 of the strips 17 are in their release pivot position adjacent to the corner regions 10 of the stiffening collar 8, the possibility is readily available here Given that the corner areas 10 of the stiffening collar 8 should also be designed as rounded areas 19, which improve the ability to negotiate curves and gradients of the storage and / or transport containers 1 when they are used on transport and / or conveyor systems. It can be seen particularly clearly from FIGS. 4 and 5 of the drawing that the strips 17 have a stepped cross section with different cross-sectional webs 17a, 17b, 17c, 17d and 17e.
  • the cross-sectional webs 17a, 17e and 17c, 17d run essentially parallel to one another, while the cross-sectional web 17b extends transversely thereto.
  • the cross-sectional web 17e lies on the same level as the cross-sectional web 17a, while the cross-sectional webs 17c and 17d adjoin the cross-sectional web 17b at approximately a right angle.
  • the two cross-sectional webs 17c and 17d of the strips 17 are each connected to one another by transverse ribs 17f, while a longitudinal channel remains between the cross-sectional webs 17b, 17d and 17e, which is only closed at its ends by a web 17h.
  • a stiffening profile 20 for example a tube or a rod, can be inserted into this longitudinal channel, as is indicated in FIGS. 2 to 5 of the drawing. Through this stiffening profile 20, the load capacity of the bar 17 can be increased considerably if necessary.
  • the cross-sectional web 17b of the strip 17 near the two ends of the strips is each equipped with an alignment stop 21 projecting approximately over the entire height of the cross-sectional web 17a, as can be seen in FIGS. 1 and 3 to 5.
  • These alignment stops 21 interact with the corner areas of a storage and / or transport container 1 directly above the base 2 when it is placed on the strips 17 from above. With the help of the alignment stops 21 and the cross-sectional web 17a of the strips 17 in this way a secure stack centering of the attached storage and / or transport container 1 takes place.
  • each bearing block 14 is completed by a bearing bracket 23 which can be pushed from above between the two legs of the bearing cheeks 16 over the bearing journal 15 and the bearing block 14.
  • the bearing bracket 23 is designed as a latching bracket which has latching lugs or nocks 24 with which it can be engaged in latching engagements which are located on the bottom of the trough 12 or in the wall section of the stiffening collar 8 forming this.
  • the stiffening collar 8 in the region of the transverse side walls 5 and 6 also has an essentially H-shaped cross-sectional profile.
  • the edge section 1 of the stiffening collar 8 which is open upwards in a channel-like manner, is formed over a length section which corresponds to at least one hand width to an approximately U-shaped profiled bed 26, the profile height of which is below the upper one Boundary plane of the stiffening collar 8 ends, as can be clearly seen in FIGS. 7 and 8.
  • the entire profile height of the U-shaped bed 26 ends approximately at the same level with the upper edges 5a and 6a of the transverse side walls 5 and 6.
  • the stiffening collar 8 or its edge section 11, which is open in a channel-like manner upwards, is stabilized by transverse and / or node webs 27, as is also made clear by FIGS. 7 and 8.
  • the bed 26 has only one profile height which is suitable to take up the cross-sectional web 17a of this strip 17, while the cross-sectional webs 17c and 17d and also the cross-sectional web 17b come to lie above the bed 26 (FIG. 7).
  • the downward web 28 of the stiffening collar 8 has an interruption 29 over its length range, ie in a section corresponding to at least one hand's width.
  • This interruption 29 is associated with an opening 30 in each of the transverse side walls 5 and 6, such that the U-shaped bed 26 in the region of the interruption 29 and the opening 30 forms a grip strip 31 which leads to the interior of the bearing and / or Transport container 1 can be safely gripped with one hand, as can be clearly seen in FIGS. 7 and 8.
  • the outer cross-sectional web 17c is provided on its free longitudinal edge with a bead-like thickening 17g.
  • This bead-like thickening 17g is in the release pivot position of the bar 17 at such a distance above the U-shaped bed 26 that it can be easily gripped with the fingers and thus forms a pivoting handle for the bar 17. If a storage and / or transport container 1 is carried in the release pivot position of the strips 17 by gripping the handle 31, then the strips 17 are also gripped by the hands and thereby form an additional stiffening, that is to say an increase in stability in the region of the grip strip 31.
