Definitions

  • the innovation relates to a storage and / or transport box with longitudinal and transverse walls inclined inwards from the top opening towards the floor and two U-shaped handle brackets mounted on opposite sides of the box in horizontal swivel bearings that are aligned with one another at the upper edge of the box and which are used to place several empty ones into one another Boxes can be folded down against the outside of the walls and swiveled inwards for stacking boxes to form stacking supports and placed on top of the box, and with bracket parts bent horizontally towards the center of the box, an attached box in one direction (e.g. in the longitudinal direction) and with vertical ones at right angles to Bow handle bent bow parts fix the box in the other direction (e.g. in the transverse direction).
  • a storage and / or transport box with longitudinal and transverse walls inclined inwards from the top opening towards the floor and two U-shaped handle brackets mounted on opposite sides of the box in horizontal swivel bearings that are aligned with one another at the upper edge of the box and which are used to
  • Such boxes are already known from DE-OS 36 14 920. These have brackets that can be placed on the top of the box, the handles of which form the base for another box to be placed. This is secured in one direction by cranking the handle against slipping. In the other direction, the box is fixed by end extensions which are bent horizontally to the center of the box and are arranged between the two pivot bearings.
  • these known boxes have the disadvantage that wire at the end of the end extensions bent towards the center of the box Interfaces are exposed, which on the one hand can damage the attached box and on the other hand can cause injuries when lifting the box.
  • the innovation is therefore based on the object to create a storage and / or transport box of the generic type in which the most free and secure access to the middle part used as a handle is possible without the exact definition of an attached box by the horizontal bracket parts is impaired.
  • the storage and / or transport box is characterized in that the handle brackets are arranged with their end portions in pivot bearings and that each of the horizontal bracket parts bent towards the center of the box for fixing the mounted box in one direction between a respective pivot bearing and one on the Box upper edge of the bracket section is arranged.
  • both end portions of a handle are inserted from the respective outer pivot bearing opening into the pivot bearing.
  • one end section of a handle can also - according to claim 4 - be inserted from the outside pivot bearing opening and the other end section from the inside pivot bearing opening into the pivot bearing.
  • the pivot bearings are block-shaped or cube-shaped and have at least one undercut guide on the foot side, which can be inserted from the outside of the box into correspondingly shaped undercut box-fixed guides up to a stop. In this way, the swivel bearings are securely connected to the box. Even when the box is full, the tensile forces that occur when the box is lifted are transferred from the bracket to the box-fixed guides via its swivel bearing.
  • the block or cube-shaped pivot bearings are held in their end position according to claims 6 and 7 by releasably lockable latching devices which consist of a tongue which can be latched into a slot provided in the area of the box-fixed guides.
  • the block or cube-shaped bearings are not only light and safe with the Box connectable, but they can also be easily removed if necessary. Only the locking device needs to be operated.
  • the handlebars can be pivotally arranged on the upper edge of either the transverse walls or the longitudinal walls. If they are mounted on the upper edge of the longitudinal walls, two small boxes can be placed on the handlebars, which have about half the base of the supporting large box. The smaller boxes are then placed at right angles to the longitudinal axis of the large supporting box.
  • the handlebars advantageously have a crank in their center, which is directed upwards when the bracket is pivoted inward and secures the smaller boxes against displacement in their transverse direction.
  • another large box can also be placed on the supporting large box if it has a recess in the middle of its lower longitudinal edge which is larger in size than the offset of the brackets (claim 9).
  • a tool for plastic injection molding of the storage and / or transport box is expediently designed in accordance with claim 11 in such a way that for the production of the box-fixed undercut guides for fastening the swivel bearings a tool half interchangeable angled inserts are provided, each having molded parts for forming the guides on the upper edges of either the transverse or the longitudinal walls of the box only on one of their two legs.
  • Fig. 3 shows how a mounted box 101 is fixed in position by the bracket middle part 7 of the box below and by the horizontal bracket part 9.
  • the bracket middle part 7 of the box below and by the horizontal bracket part 9.
  • 4 recesses are provided on the outer sides of the transverse walls for receiving the bracket middle parts 7 when these are pivoted outward from their position shown in FIG. 3 against the outer side of the transverse walls (FIG. 4).
  • FIGS. 5 to 12 The different possibilities of the pivot bearing and handle bracket attachment are shown in FIGS. 5 to 12.
  • Fig. 5 shows a type of attachment for the block or cube-shaped pivot bearing 8 at the top of the box.
  • the pivot bearing 8 is screwed to the transverse wall rib 17.
  • the block-shaped or cube-shaped pivot bearing 8 sits below the transverse wall rib 18, which runs in the plane of the upper edge 11 of the box.
  • FIGS. 7 to 9 Another embodiment is shown in FIGS. 7 to 9.
  • the pivot bearings 8 are provided with dovetail connections 12 and can therefore be pushed on from the outside of the box in the direction of the arrow in FIG. 9.
  • a latching device which consists of a tongue 19 attached to the pivot bearing 8 and a slot 20 embedded in the transverse wall rib 17, the pivot bearings 8 are fixed in their position after they have been pushed on completely.
  • the tongue 19 engages in the slot 20.
  • the tongue 19 is pressed somewhat upwards, so that the block-like or cube-like pivot bearing 8 can be pushed out of the box-fixed guide of the dovetail connection 12.
  • the handle 5 are inserted from the outer pivot bearing openings 13 into the pivot bearing 8.
  • FIGS. 10 and 11 there is also the possibility, as shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, of inserting the handle 5 into the inner, opposite pivot bearing openings 14 of the pivot bearing 8 and fixing it there, for example by means of bearing plugs.
  • This has the advantage that the pivot bearing 8 can be placed closer to the box corners. This increases the free space in the grip area and the horizontal bracket parts 9 can make an attached box more precise and secure due to a longer contact surface establish.
  • the pivot bearings 8 are embraced and held by the side jaws 15 of the upper box edge 11 (Fig. 11).
  • FIGS. 1 and 10 shows a combination of the pivot bearing and handle bracket arrangement according to FIGS. 1 and 10.
  • a pivot bearing 8 is formed on the upper box edge 11, in which the handle bracket 5 is inserted through the outer pivot bearing opening 13 while the bracket is inserted on the left through the inner pivot bearing opening 14.
  • This combination allows both bracket ends to be inserted simultaneously and in a simple manner from one side into the pivot bearing 8 without the bracket ends having to be pushed apart to allow them to jump into the bearing.
  • the handle brackets 5 are pivotably arranged on the upper edge of the longitudinal box walls 3, in the same way as the swivel bracket shown in FIG. 1 on the upper edge of the transverse box walls 4.
  • the handlebars 5 are provided with an offset 16.
  • two small boxes 102 can be placed next to one another on the storage and / or transport box 1 shown in FIG. 13.
  • the boxes 102 are secured in their position by the horizontal bracket parts 9, the vertical cranks 10 and the cranks 16 in the middle of the bracket.
  • the box according to FIG. 13 also allows a box of the same size to be put on. However, it is a prerequisite that a depression 21 is formed in the middle of the lower longitudinal edge, the dimension of which is slightly larger than the offset 16.
  • Fig. 15 illustrates that the tool for injection molding the storage and / or transport boxes made of plastic can be converted by a simple measure.
  • a total of four interchangeable angular inserts 22 are provided on a tool half, each of which has molded parts 24 for forming the box-fixed guide (FIG. 7) on the upper edges of the transverse (FIG. 7) only on one of its two legs. 1) or have longitudinal walls (Fig. 13).
  • the other leg 25 is neutral.
  • box-fixed guides can be formed on the upper edges of the transverse walls. If the inserts 22 are removed, moved in the manner shown by arrows 26 to the next corner of the tool half (indicated by dashed lines) and inserted there instead of the respectively removed insert 22, the box-fixed guides can be formed on the longitudinal walls 3.
