Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein mittels Hubstapler heb- und stapelbares Verladegestell mit dazugehörigem Zusatzgerät für einen Hubstapler.The invention relates to a loading frame which can be lifted and stacked by means of a forklift truck and an associated additional device for a forklift truck.

Herkömmliche Verladegestelle besitzen an ihrer Unter­seite Ausnehmungen, in die die Gabeln des Hubstaplers eingeschoben und sodann die Palette gehoben wird. Nachteilig bei solchen Paletten ist, daß genügend Platz vor den Ausnehmungen vorhanden sein muß, um die Gabeln des Staplers einführen zu können. Somit ist es nicht möglich, derartige Verladegestelle hinter einer Schwelle abzustellen oder aufzunehmen.Conventional loading frames have recesses on their underside into which the forklift forks are inserted and then the pallet is lifted. A disadvantage of such pallets is that there must be enough space in front of the recesses in order to be able to insert the forks of the stacker. It is therefore not possible to park or pick up such loading racks behind a threshold.

Erfindungsgemäß wird dadurch Abhilfe geschaffen, daß das Verladegestell aus zwei parallelen Profilen, die die Längskanten bilden, einer zwischen diesen befahr- und begehbaren horizontalen Bodenkonstruktion besteht, beide Längsseiten im mittleren Bereich Aufnahmen für die Arme der Greifereinheit der Zusatzeinrichtung be­sitzen und die Zusatzeinrichtung einen wenigstens um eine Achse federnd drehbaren Kompensator aufweist.According to the invention, this is remedied that the loading frame consists of two parallel profiles that form the longitudinal edges, one between which horizontal floor construction can be driven and walked on, both long sides in the central region have receptacles for the arms of the gripper unit of the additional device and the additional device at least one has an axis of a rotatable compensator.

In weiterer Ausgestaltung kann die Erfindung so ausge­führt werden, daß das Verladegestell an seiner Ober­seite nach oben offene Aufnahmen für die Greiferein­heiten des Zusatzgerätes aufweist, die Greifereinheit um vertikale Achsen drehende Riegel besitzt, die durch Verdrehen nach Einschieben in die Aufnahmen die Arme der Greifereinheit am Verladegestell ankuppeln.In a further embodiment, the invention can be carried out in such a way that the loading frame has upwardly open receptacles for the gripper units of the additional device on its upper side, the gripper unit has bolts rotating about vertical axes, which by rotating after insertion into the receptacles, the arms of the gripper unit on the loading frame couple.

Auf diese Weise ist es möglich, eine sehr einfache und kostensparende Ausführung eines solchen Verladegestells zu erzeugen.In this way it is possible to produce a very simple and cost-saving design of such a loading frame.

Den Kompensator kann man so ausführen, daß der Kompen­sator aus zwei in Grundstellung zueinander parallelen Platten besteht, wovon eine in an sich bekannter Weise am Hubstapler befestigt ist und die andere Platte die Arme mit der Greifereinheit aufweist, im Raum zwischen den Platten Konsolen an diesen angebracht sind und mit­tels Zapfen um eine vertikale Achse drehbar miteinander verbunden sind und beidseitig im gleichen Abstand von der Drehachse Feder/Dämpfungselemente angebracht sind.The compensator can be designed so that the compensator consists of two plates parallel to one another in the basic position, one of which is fastened to the lift truck in a manner known per se and the other plate has the arms with the gripper unit, and brackets are attached to them in the space between the plates are and are pivotally connected to each other by means of pins about a vertical axis and spring / damping elements are attached on both sides at the same distance from the axis of rotation.

Diese Bauform ist sehr kompakt und wartungsarm. Dadurch ermöglicht sie, daß der Lastangriffspunkt am Hubstapler wie bei üblichen Paletten und Verladegestellen liegt, wodurch am Hubstapler keine zusätzlichen Änderungen oder Beladungs- bzw. Handhabungsvorschriften nötig sind.This design is very compact and requires little maintenance. As a result, it enables the load application point on the forklift to be located as with conventional pallets and loading racks, which means that no additional changes or loading or handling instructions are necessary on the forklift.

Das Verladegestell wird so aufgenommen, daß die drehba­ren Riegel über den Aufnahmen positioniert und dann ab­gesenkt werden. Mögliche Fehlstellungen gleicht der Kompensator aus.The loading frame is taken up so that the rotatable latches are positioned over the receptacles and then lowered. The compensator compensates for possible misalignments.

Die Erfindung wird anhand der nachstehenden Zeichnungen beschrieben.The invention will be described with reference to the drawings below.

Der mit der Zusatzeinrichtung 2 versehene Hubstapler 1 hebt das mit einem Kraftfahrzeug 3 beladene Verladege­stell 4 auf einen Wagen 5. Der Wagen 5 besitzt seitlich Sicherungsleisten 6, die über das Niveau der Abstell­fläche 7 ragen.The forklift 1 provided with the additional device 2 lifts the loading frame 4 loaded with a motor vehicle 3 onto a trolley 5. The trolley 5 has securing strips 6 on the side, which protrude above the level of the storage surface 7.

Das Verladegestell 4 besteht aus zwei parallelen Profi­len 8, die die Längskanten bilden und einer zwischen den Profilen 8 befindlichen begeh- und befahrbaren Bo­denkonstruktion 9. Seitlich sind im mittleren Bereich an den Profilen 8 Verbreiterungen 10 angebracht, an de­nen nach oben offene Aufnahmen 11 für die Riegel 13 der Arme 14 des Zusatzgerätes 2 besitzen.The loading frame 4 consists of two parallel profiles 8, which form the longitudinal edges, and a floor construction 9 located between the profiles 8 that can be walked on and driven on. At the sides, in the middle region, 8 extensions 10 are attached, on which open receptacles 11 for the Have latch 13 of the arms 14 of the additional device 2.

Die Arme 14 besitzen jeweils einen drehbaren Riegel 13, der in die Aufnahmen 11 eingeschoben und dann um etwa 90 Grad verdreht wird, wodurch er an dem Verladegestell 4 angekuppelt ist.The arms 14 each have a rotatable bolt 13 which is inserted into the receptacles 11 and then rotated by approximately 90 degrees, as a result of which it is coupled to the loading frame 4.

Das in Fig. 6 und 7 dargestellte Zusatzgerät 2 weist eine Flanschplatte 15 auf, die am Joch 16 des Hubstap­lers angebracht ist. Mittig sind im Bereich der Ober- und der Unterkante der Flanschplatte 15 und der Verbin­dung zwischen den beiden Armen 14 Konsolen 17 und 17′ angeordnet, die mittels Zapfen 18 drehbar verbunden sind. Im Bereich der Längskanten der Flanschplatte 15 sind Feder/Dämpfungselemente 19 befestigt, die ein Drehen der Arme 14 aus der Grundstellung beim Ankup­peln der Verladegestelle 4 erlauben und sie nach Anhe­ben des Verladegestelles 4 wieder in die Grundstellung drehen. Die Flanschplatte 15 bildet mit den Konsolen 17 und 17′, den Zapfen 18 und den elastischen Körpern 19 den Kompensator. Die Riegel 13 werden durch die Antrie­be 20, die von einem Gerät am Hubstapler 1 gesteuert und versorgt werden, gedreht und können sowohl Zylinder als auch elektrische Antriebe sein.The additional device 2 shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 has a flange plate 15 which is attached to the yoke 16 of the lift truck. In the middle of the upper and lower edge of the flange plate 15 and the connection between the two arms 14 consoles 17 and 17 'are arranged, which are rotatably connected by means of pins 18. In the area of the longitudinal edges of the flange plate 15, spring / damping elements 19 are fastened, which allow the arms 14 to be rotated from the basic position when the loading frames 4 are coupled and, after lifting the loading frame 4, to the basic position again rotate. The flange plate 15 forms with the brackets 17 and 17 ', the pin 18 and the elastic body 19, the compensator. The bolts 13 are rotated by the drives 20, which are controlled and supplied by a device on the forklift 1, and can be both cylinders and electrical drives.

Die Erfindung ist nicht auf die angeführten Beispiele beschränkt.The invention is not restricted to the examples given.
