Abstract

The pallet container comprises a wooden pallet or a steel pipe pallet, on which is mounted an inner container of a synthetic resin with a jacket of vertical and horizontal lattice bars (4, 5) of steel pipe, these bars forming continuous inner and outer tangential planes; (20-20, 25-25). At the points of intersection (15), the lattice bars are drawn in to form trough-like indentations. This configuration has the result that, at each point of intersection (15), four contact points (22) disposed in one plane (21-21) are produced with an accumulation of material in each case corresponding to four times the wall thickness of the lattice bars. The lattice bars (4, 5) are joined together at the points of intersection (15) in the zone of the contact points (22) by electric resistance welding. The pallet container is usable as a safely operating multiple-trip container for liquid merchandise of all kinds.

Der erfindungsgemäße Palettenbehälter zeichnet sich durch folgende Vorteile aus:

Der Palettenbehälter 1 nach den Fign. 1 und 2 zur Lagerung und für den Transport von Flüssiggut weist als Hauptbauteil einen austauschbaren Innenbehälter 2 aus Polyäthylen mit rechteckigem bzw. quadratischem Grundriß und abgerundeten Ecken und Kanten sowie einen Außenmantel 3 aus sich kreuzenden senkrechten und waagrechten Gitterstäben 4, 5 aus Stahlrohr und einen Blechboden 6 auf. Der Palettenbehälter 1 ist auf einer Holzpalette 7 befestigt. Zwischen dem unteren abgerundeten Rand des Kunststoff-Innenbehälters 2, dem Gittermantel 3 und der Holzpalette 7 ist ein als Schwingungsdämpfer wirkender Stützring 8 aus Polystyrolschaum angeordnet (Fig. 24).The pallet container 1 according to FIGS. 1 and 2 for the storage and transport of liquid goods has as its main component an interchangeable inner container 2 made of polyethylene with a rectangular or square outline and rounded corners and edges as well as an outer jacket 3 made of intersecting vertical and horizontal bars 4, 5 made of tubular steel and a sheet metal base 6 on. The pallet container 1 is attached to a wooden pallet 7. A support ring 8 made of polystyrene foam and acting as a vibration damper is arranged between the lower rounded edge of the plastic inner container 2, the grid jacket 3 and the wooden pallet 7 (FIG. 24).

Der Kunststoff-Innenbehälter 2 hat in der Mitte seiner oberen Wand 9 eine Einfüllöffnung 10, die mit einem Schraubdeckel 11 verschließbar ist. An seiner tiefsten Stelle besitzt der Innenbehälter 2 eine Auslaßöffnung 12, die ebenfalls mit einer Schraubkappe 13 und zusätzlich mit einer kunststoffkaschierten Folie ( nicht dargestellt ) verschlossen wird, so daß nach Abschrauben der Kappe 13 eine entsprechende Zapfarmatur, z.B. ein Einschlag- oder Aufschraubhahn, angebracht werden kann.The plastic inner container 2 has a filling opening 10 in the middle of its upper wall 9, which can be closed with a screw cap 11. At its lowest point, the inner container 2 has an outlet opening 12, which is also closed with a screw cap 13 and additionally with a plastic-laminated film (not shown), so that after the cap 13 has been unscrewed, a corresponding tap fitting, e.g. an impact or screw tap can be attached.

Die senkrechten und waagrechten Gitterstäbe 4, 5 des Außenmantels 3 liegen eng an der Außenwand 14 des Innenbehälters 2 an und bilden durchgehende äußere und innere Begrenzungsebenen, so daß ein "Klettern" benachbarter Palettenbehälter aufgrund einer Verwindung der Ladefläche beim Transport der Behälter z.B. mit einem Lastkraftwagen ausgeschlossen ist.The vertical and horizontal bars 4, 5 of the outer casing 3 lie closely against the outer wall 14 of the inner container 2 and form continuous outer and inner boundary planes, so that a "climbing" of adjacent pallet containers due to a twisting of the loading surface during transport of the containers e.g. with a truck is excluded.

An den Kreuzungsstellen 15 sind die senkrechten und waagrechten Gitterstäbe 4, 5 zur Bildung muldenartiger, in Längsrichtung der Stäbe verlaufender, doppelwandiger Vertiefungen 16 eingezogen, derart, daß die beiden gekrümmten Längsränder 18, 19 der Wandung 17 der Vertiefungen 16 in den Rohrstäben 4, 5 zwischen einer Tangentialebene 20-20 und einer zu dieser parallelen Sekantenebene 21-21 der Gitterstäbe verlaufen (Fig. 9). Diese Formgebung der Gitterstäbe 4, 5 bewirkt, daß an jeder Kreuzungsstelle 15 zwischen den Längsrändern 18, 19 der Vertiefungen 16 zweier rechtwinklig übereinander liegender Gitterstäbe vier in einer Ebene, nämlich der Sekantenebene 21-21, gelegene Berührungsstellen 22 mit jeweils einer der vierfachen Wandstärke 23 der Gitterstäbe 4, 5 entsprechenden Materialanhäufung entstehen (Fign. 10 - 12). Die in die Gitterstäbe 4, 5 eingezogenen Vertiefungen 16 sind derart bemessen, daß das in Richtung der Normalen durch die Kreuzungsstellen 15 gemessene Ausgangsmaß A vor dem Verschweißen der zusammengefügten Gitterstäbe 4, 5 größer als ein Gitterstabaußendurchmesser 24 ist (Fig. 11). Die Gitterstäbe 4, 5 werden an den Kreuzungsstellen 15 jeweils im Bereich der vier Berührungsstellen 22 durch eine Widerstandspreßschweißung derart miteinander verbunden, daß das Ausgangsmaß A unter Druck auf das Endmaß E reduziert wird, das einem Gitterstabaußendurchmesser 24 entspricht, und die Gitterstäbe 4, 5 innen und außen gemeinsame Tangentialebenen 20-20 und 25-25 aufweisen (Fig. 12).At the crossing points 15, the vertical and horizontal bars 4, 5 are drawn in to form trough-like, double-walled depressions 16 extending in the longitudinal direction of the bars, such that the two curved longitudinal edges 18, 19 of the wall 17 of the depressions 16 in the tubular bars 4, 5 between a tangential plane 20-20 and a parallel to this secant plane 21-21 of the bars (Fig. 9). This shape of the bars 4, 5 has the effect that, at each crossing point 15 between the longitudinal edges 18, 19 of the recesses 16 of two bars lying at right angles one above the other, four contact points 22, each with one of four times the wall thickness 23, are located in one plane, namely the secant plane 21-21 the bars 4, 5 corresponding material accumulation arise (Figs. 10 - 12). The recesses 16 drawn into the bars 4, 5 are dimensioned such that the starting dimension A measured in the direction of the normal through the crossing points 15 before the welded together of the bars 4, 5 is larger than an outer bar diameter 24 (FIG. 11). The bars 4, 5 are connected to each other at the intersections 15 in the area of the four contact points 22 by a resistance pressure welding such that the starting dimension A is reduced under pressure to the final dimension E, which corresponds to an outside diameter 24, and the bars 4, 5 inside and have common tangential planes 20-20 and 25-25 on the outside (FIG. 12).

Durch die Materialanhäufung einer vierfachen Gitterstabwandstärke 23 an jeder der vier Berührungsstellen 22 an allen Kreuzungsstellen 15 der senkrechten und waagrechten Gitterstäbe 4, 5 des Außenmantels 3 wird erreicht, daß bei einer entsprechenden Steuerung des Schweißstromes und des Druckes der Schweißpresse ein Strom über die Berührungsstellen 22 fließt, der auf die Berührungsstellen beschränkte, gleichmäßige Schmelzbäder erzeugt, die homogene Schweißverbindungen an den Kreuzungsstellen 15 zwischen den Gitterstäben 4, 5 gewährleisten.Due to the material accumulation of a fourfold lattice wall thickness 23 at each of the four contact points 22 at all crossing points 15 of the vertical and horizontal lattice bars 4, 5 of the outer jacket 3, it is achieved that, with a corresponding control of the welding current and the pressure of the welding press, a current flows through the contact points 22 , which produces uniform melting baths limited to the contact points, which ensure homogeneous welded connections at the crossing points 15 between the bars 4, 5.

Bei dem Gittermantel 3 nach Fig. 13 sind die unteren Enden 26 der senkrechten Gitterstäbe 4 zu mittigen, flachen Ansätzen zusammengedrückt, die mit einer Breitseite an die Innenseite des kurzen Schenkels 29 eines sich um den Gittermantel herum erstreckenden Abschlußprofils 27 angeschweißt sind, das als Winkelprofil 28 ausgebildet ist, dessen langer Schenkel 30 zum Befestigen des Gittermantels 3 auf einer Holzpalette oder einer Stahlrohrpalette dient.13, the lower ends 26 of the vertical bars 4 are to the center, flat Approaches compressed, which are welded with a broad side to the inside of the short leg 29 of an end profile 27 extending around the lattice jacket, which is designed as an angle profile 28, the long leg 30 of which is used to fasten the lattice jacket 3 on a wooden pallet or a steel pipe pallet.

Bei der Gittermantelausführung nach Fig. 14 sind die unteren Enden der senkrechten Gitterstäbe 4 eingeschnürt oder weisen gegenüberliegende Abflachungen auf und sind mit einem umlaufenden U-Profil 31 verschweißt. Am Schenkel des U-Profils 31 können Befestigungswinkel 32 angeschweißt werden, mit denen der Gittermantel 3 auf einer Holzpalette oder einer Stahlrohrpalette befestigt wird. In der gleichen Weise kann auch der obere Abschluß des Gittermantels 3 gestaltet werden, wobei dann das U-Profil 31 als oberes Abschlußprofil 33 des Gittermantels 3 dient (Fig. 5).14, the lower ends of the vertical bars 4 are constricted or have opposite flats and are welded to a circumferential U-profile 31. Mounting brackets 32 can be welded to the leg of the U-profile 31, with which the lattice jacket 3 is fastened on a wooden pallet or a steel pipe pallet. The upper end of the lattice jacket 3 can also be designed in the same way, the U-profile 31 then serving as the upper end profile 33 of the lattice jacket 3 (FIG. 5).

Die in Fig. 15 dargestellte Gittermantelausführung ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß die unteren Enden 26 der senkrechten Gitterstäbe 4 zu mittigen, flachen Ansätzen zusammengedrückt und stumpf auf einen waagrechten, umlaufenden Gitterstab 5 aufgeschweißt sind, der das untere Abschlußprofil 27 bildet und an dem Befestigungswinkel 32 angeschweißt ist.

Bei der in Fig. 21 dargestellten Befestigung des Gittermantels 3 des Palettenbehälters 1 nach den Fig. 3 und 4 an einer Stahlrohrpalette 39 sind an den unteren umlaufenden, waagrechten Gitterstab 5 Z-förmige Profillaschen 40 zwischen den Befestigungswinkeln 32 mit einem oberen Flansch 41 angeschweißt, der über einen Verbindungssteg 42 mit einem nach unten vorstehenden Flansch 43 verbunden ist, welcher am oberen Rohrrahmen 44 der Stahlrohrpalette 39 innen anliegt.When fastening the lattice jacket 3 of the pallet container 1 according to FIGS. 3 and 4 to a steel tube pallet 39 shown in FIG. horizontal lattice bar 5 Z-shaped profile brackets 40 welded between the mounting brackets 32 with an upper flange 41 which is connected via a connecting web 42 to a downwardly projecting flange 43 which bears against the upper tubular frame 44 of the tubular steel pallet 39 on the inside.

Die Fign. 22 und 23 zeigen zwei Möglichkeiten der Stoßverbindung des Gittermantels 3. Nach Fig. 22 sind zwei senkrechte Gitterstäbe 4 zumindest stellenweise bei 45 miteinander verschweißt, wobei die sich treffenden Enden der waagrechten Gitterstäbe 5 zu um den Gitterstabradius außermittig versetzten Ansätzen 46 zusammengedrückt sind, die bogenförmig verformt und an die senkrechten Gitterstäbe 4 angeschweißt sind.The figures 22 and 23 show two possibilities of the butt joint of the lattice jacket 3. According to FIG. 22, two vertical lattice bars 4 are welded to one another at least in places at 45, the meeting ends of the horizontal lattice bars 5 being pressed together to form lugs 46 which are offset from the lattice bar radius and which are arcuate deformed and welded to the vertical bars 4.

Bei der Stoßverbindung des Gittermantels 3 nach Fig. 23 sind die Enden der waagrechten Gitterstäbe 5 zu um den Gitterstabradius außermittig versetzten, spitzen Ansätzen 47 zusammengedrückt, die aneinander und an einen senkrechten Gitterstab 4 bei 48 geschweißt sind.23, the ends of the horizontal lattice bars 5 are pressed together to form pointed lugs 47 which are offset off-center around the lattice bar radius and which are welded to one another and to a vertical lattice bar 4 at 48.

Zur Befestigung des Palettenbehälters 1 nach den Fign. 1 und 2 auf einer Holzpalette 7 werden vom Blechboden 6 bzw. von den Befestigungswinkeln 32 des Gittermantels 3 durchgehende Schraubbolzen 49 verwendet, die bis in die unteren Bretter der Holzpalette 7 reichen und dort in Ausfräsungen 50 mit Muttern 51 verspannt werden. Dies ergibt einen stabilen Zusammenhalt von Palettenbehälter 1 und Holzpalette 7. Fig. 24 zeigt ferner das eingezogene untere Ende 52 eines senkrechten Gitterstabes 4, das in ein umlaufendes U-Profil 53 eingeschweißt ist, das jeweils zwischen zwei senkrechten Gitterstäben 4 an der Holzpalette 7 mit Schrauben 54 befestigt ist.For fastening the pallet container 1 according to FIGS. 1 and 2 on a wooden pallet 7, continuous bolts 49 are used from the sheet metal base 6 or from the fastening angles 32 of the lattice jacket 3, which reach into the lower boards of the wooden pallet 7 and are clamped there in cutouts 50 with nuts 51. This results in a stable cohesion of the pallet container 1 and the wooden pallet 7. FIG. 24 also shows the retracted lower end 52 of a vertical lattice bar 4, which is welded into a circumferential U-profile 53, each of which is located on the wooden pallet 7 between two vertical lattice bars 4 Screws 54 is attached.

Gemäß den Fign. 2 und 4 hat der Palettenbehälter 1 anstelle eines Deckels einen Versteifungsrahmen aus diagonal angeordneten Rohrstreben 55, die mit dem oberen Abschlußprofil 33 in der Mitte der Seitenstränge desselben verschraubt sind und zum Herausnehmen des Kunststoff-Innenbehälters 2 abnehmbar sind. Da die obere Wand 9 des Kunststoff-Innenbehälters 2 die Einfüllöffnung 10 und den Schraubdeckel 11 derselben in einer Vertiefung 56 aufnimmt, sind in den diese Vertiefung 56 flankierenden erhöhten Bereichen 57 schräge Mulden 58 vorgesehen, durch die sich die Rohrstreben 55 hindurch erstrecken, so daß sie dort innerhalb der Kontur der oberen Wand 9 des Innenbehälters 2 verschwinden.According to FIGS. 2 and 4, the pallet container 1 instead of a lid has a stiffening frame made of diagonally arranged tubular struts 55, which with the upper end profile 33 are screwed in the middle of the side strands of the same and are removable for removing the plastic inner container 2. Since the upper wall 9 of the plastic inner container 2 receives the filling opening 10 and the screw cap 11 of the same in a recess 56, inclined troughs 58 are provided in the raised areas flanking this recess 56, through which the tubular struts 55 extend so that they disappear there within the contour of the upper wall 9 of the inner container 2.

Wie die Fign. 1, 3 und 5 erkennen lassen, nehmen die Abstände der waagrechten Gitterstäbe 5 voneinander von unten nach oben allmählich zu, so daß im unteren Bereich des Gittermantels 3 durch die dichter beieinander liegenden waagrechten Gitterstäbe 5 das notwendige Widerstandsmoment gegenüber den auf der Wand des Innenbehälters 2 lastenden, mit der Füllhöhe ansteigenden, inneren Druckkräften gewährleistet ist.As the fig. 1, 3 and 5 show, the distances between the horizontal bars 5 gradually increase from bottom to top, so that in the lower area of the grid jacket 3, due to the closer together horizontal bars 5, the necessary section modulus compared to that on the wall of the inner container 2 burdensome, internal pressure forces increasing with the level is guaranteed.

Zum Schutz des Behälters (2) und seines Inhalts gegen UV-Strahlung kann der Kunststoff des Behälters (2) durch Zusatz von Ruß schwarz eingefärbt sein, wobei eine Füllstandsanzeige in Form eines Sichtstreifens aus durchscheinendem bzw. durchsichtigem, gegen UV-Strahlung beständigem Kunststoffmaterial, das mit dem schwarz eingefärbten Kunststoffmaterial des Behälters (2) einen homogenen Körper bildet, vorgesehen wird, Neben dem Sichtstreifen kann auf der Außenfläche des Behälters (2) eine Füllstandsanzeigeskala vorgesehen werden.To protect the container (2) and its contents against UV radiation, the plastic of the container (2) can be colored black by adding soot, a fill level indicator in the form of a visible strip made of translucent or transparent plastic material that is resistant to UV radiation, which forms a homogeneous body with the black-colored plastic material of the container (2) is provided.
