Abstract

In a pallet, which is particularly suitable for transporting and/or storing vehicle tyres, having a bottom part (2) and two side parts (4, 6) which are located opposite one another and can be attached to the bottom part (2) in particular vertically, at least one pair of rod-type parallel bearing elements (8) for the vehicle tyres is arranged between the side parts (4, 6). The bearing elements (8) have a predeterminable spacing from the bottom part and a smaller spacing from one another than the outside diameter of the vehicle tyres to be accommodated. With the aid of a pallet of this type, the deformation of the lowest layers of tyres due to the weight of layers of tyres lying above it is prevented and a great packing density is achieved inside the pallet. <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Palette, insbesondere zum Transport und/oder zur Lagerung von Fahrzeugreifen, mit einem Bodenteil und zwei einander gegenüberliegenden, insbesondere senkrecht am Bodenteil befestigbaren Seitenteilen, die zusammen mit dem Bodenteil einen Reifenaufnahmebereich bilden.The invention relates to a pallet, in particular for the transport and / or storage of vehicle tires, with a base part and two opposite side parts, in particular which can be fastened perpendicularly to the base part, which together with the base part form a tire receiving area.

An derartige Paletten werden die allgemeinen Anforderungen gestellt, daß sie leicht transportierbar, stapelbar und ver­schleißarm sind, sowie ein unfallsicheres Handling gewähr­leisten.The general requirements of such pallets are that they are easy to transport, stackable and wear-resistant, and ensure accident-free handling.

Es sind Großraum-Reifenpaletten zur Aufnahme einer Vielzahl von Reifen bekannt, deren Seitenteile zusammenklappbar sind. Die Reifen können darin in unterschiedlichster Art und Weise gelagert und transportiert werden.Large-capacity tire pallets for receiving a large number of tires are known, the side parts of which can be folded. The tires can be stored and transported in a variety of ways.

Dabei hat es sich jedoch gezeigt, daß insbesondere die Reifen der untersten, auf dem Bodenteil aufliegenden Reifen­lage durch das Gewicht der darüberliegenden Reifen beträcht­lich verformt werden können, wobei Art und Stärke der Ver­formung von der Reifengröße, der Stapelhöhe, der Stapelart, der Temperatur der Reifen und der Lagerzeit abhängig ist.However, it has been shown that in particular the tires of the lowest tire layer lying on the base part can be considerably deformed by the weight of the tires above, the type and strength of the deformation depending on the tire size, the stack height, the type of stack, the temperature of the tires and the storage time is dependent.

Aufgrund solcher Verformungen können große Probleme bei der Reifenmontage auftreten, da verformte Reifenwulste nicht sauber auf den entsprechenden Felgenbereichen aufliegen und damit bei den üblicherweise verwendeten schlauchlosen Reifen das für die Montage erforderliche, die Wulste auf den zuge­hörigen Felgensitz schiebende Luftfangen nicht mehr gewährleistet ist. Außerdem werden verformte Reifen von Händlern und Kunden von vorneherein negativ beurteilt. Weiterhin ist nicht auszuschließen, daß bei starker Verformung und langen Lagerzeiten Qualitätseinbußen auftreten.Due to such deformations, major problems can arise during tire assembly, since deformed tire beads do not lie cleanly on the corresponding rim areas and, with the tubeless tires commonly used, the air catches required for mounting the beads on the associated rim seat are no longer guaranteed. In addition, deformed tires are assessed negatively by dealers and customers from the outset. Furthermore, it cannot be ruled out that loss of quality will occur in the event of severe deformation and long storage times.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, auf möglichst einfache und wirtschaftliche Weise eine Palette nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 zu schaffen, mit der schädliche Reifendeformationen auch bei langer Lagerzeit zuverlässig verhindert werden können und eine dichte Bepackung mit Reifen möglich ist.The invention has for its object to provide a range as simple and economical as possible according to the preamble of claim 1, with the harmful tire deformations can be reliably prevented even with a long storage time and a tight packing with tires is possible.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst.This object is achieved according to the invention by the characterizing features of claim 1.

Die zwischen den Seitenteilen in einem vorgebbaren Abstand zum Bodenteil anordenbaren Tragelemente bilden eine oder mehrere Zwischenebenen für die Fahrzeugreifen, so daß die darunterliegende Reifenschicht nicht mehr durch das Gewicht der darüberliegenden Reifenschicht belastet und verformt werden kann. Verformungsbedingte Probleme mit dem Luftfangen bei der Reifenmontage und Akzeptanzprobleme bei Händlern und Kunden können auf diese Weise zuverlässig verhindert werden. Da die Tragelemente stangenartig und paarweise ausgeführt sind, nehmen sie selbst nur wenig Platz ein und können in Abhängigkeit von den aufzunehmenden Reifen derart zwischen den Seitenteilen befestigt werden, daß eine optimale Pack­ungsdichte ermöglicht wird.The support elements which can be arranged between the side parts at a predeterminable distance from the base part form one or more intermediate levels for the vehicle tires, so that the tire layer underneath can no longer be loaded and deformed by the weight of the tire layer above. In this way, deformation-related problems with air trapping during tire assembly and acceptance problems for dealers and customers can be reliably prevented. Since the support elements are rod-like and in pairs, they take up little space themselves and, depending on the tires to be accommodated, can be fastened between the side parts in such a way that an optimal packing density is made possible.

Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform der Erfindung weist das Seitenteil zwei nebeneinanderliegende und beab­standete Reihen von horizontalen Querträgern auf, die sprossenartig mit ihren Enden an vertikalen Stützelementen des Seitenteils befestigt sind. Jede vertikale Reihe von Querträgern weist dabei zwei Paare von Querträgern auf, wobei der Vertikalabstand zwischen den Querträgern eines Paares deutlich geringer als der Abstand zwischen den benachbarten Querträgern verschiedener Paare bzw. dem untersten Querträger und dem Bodenteil ist. Auf diese Weise wird eine Palette mit drei Etagen geschaffen, die zur Aufnahme von zwei nebeneinanderliegenden Reifenreihen ge­eignet ist. Da für jede Etage zwei relativ nah vertikal beabstandete Querträger vorhanden sind, können die vorteil­hafterweise aus Hohlprofil-Stangen bestehenden Tragelemente in der jeweils günstigsten Höhe eingehängt werden.According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the side part has two adjacent and spaced-apart rows of horizontal cross members which are fastened with their ends to vertical support elements of the side part. Each vertical row of cross members has two pairs of cross members, the vertical distance between the cross members of a pair being significantly less than the distance between the adjacent cross members of different pairs or the lowest cross member and the bottom part. In this way, a pallet with three levels is created, which is suitable for holding two adjacent rows of tires. Since there are two relatively closely vertically spaced cross members for each floor, the support elements, which advantageously consist of hollow profile rods, can be attached at the most favorable height.

Weitere vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen und Ausbildungs­varianten der Erfindung sind aus den Unteransprüchen ersicht­lich.Further advantageous embodiments and variants of the invention are evident from the subclaims.

Die Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand der Zeichnung bei­spielsweise näher erläutert; in dieser zeigt:

  • Figur 1 eine Seitenansicht der Palette mit aufgerichteten Seitenteilen,
  • Figur 2 eine Vorderansicht der Palette mit einem vom Bodenteil getrennten Seitenteil und
  • Figur 3 a - d Beispiele für verschiedene Anordnungsmöglichkeiten der Reifen in der Palette.
The invention is explained in more detail below with reference to the drawing, for example; in this shows:
  • FIG. 1 shows a side view of the pallet with the side parts erected,
  • Figure 2 is a front view of the pallet with a side part separated from the bottom part and
  • Figure 3 a - d examples of different ways of arranging the tires in the pallet.

Aus Fig. 1 und 2 ist ersichtlich, daß die Palette aus einem Bodenteil 2 sowie aus zwei gegenüberliegenden, parallelen Seitenteilen 4, 6 besteht, in die in Fig. 1 verkürzt dar­gestellte Tragelemente 8 in der Form von Rohrstangen einhäng­bar sind. Die Seitenteile 4, 6 sind am Bodenteil 2 schwenk­bar gelagert und können nach innen in die in Fig. 1 ge­strichelt gezeigte Lage geklappt werden.From Fig. 1 and 2 it can be seen that the pallet consists of a bottom part 2 and two opposite, parallel side parts 4, 6, in the shortened support elements 8 shown in Fig. 1 can be hung in the form of tubular rods. The side parts 4, 6 are pivotally mounted on the base part 2 and can be folded inwards into the position shown in dashed lines in FIG. 1.

Das rechteckige Bodenteil weist in seinen Ecken vier verti­kale Standfüße 10 auf, an die Rahmenelemente 12, 13 mit U-förmigem Querschnitt angeschweißt sind, dessen offene Seite seitlich nach außen zeigt. Die Rahmenelemente 12, 13 bilden einen rechteckigen, stabilen und umlaufenden Grund­rahmen 14, der in einem gewissen Abstand von der Auflage­fläche 16 der Standfüße 10 und in einer horizontalen Ebene angeordnet ist.The rectangular base part has four vertical feet 10 in its corners, to which frame elements 12, 13 with a U-shaped cross section are welded, the open ones Side faces outwards. The frame elements 12, 13 form a rectangular, stable and circumferential base frame 14 which is arranged at a certain distance from the support surface 16 of the feet 10 and in a horizontal plane.

Die Standfüße erstrecken sich in vertikaler Richtung über den Grundrahmen 14 hinaus nach oben und bestehen aus einem Hohlprofil mit U-förmigem Querschnitt, dessen offene Seite zum auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite der Palette angeord­neten Seitenteil hin gerichtet ist.The feet extend in the vertical direction beyond the base frame 14 upwards and consist of a hollow profile with a U-shaped cross section, the open side of which is directed towards the side part arranged on the opposite side of the pallet.

Diese offene Seite ist jedoch im unteren Abschnitt der Stand­füße 10 bis zur Oberkante des Grundrahmens 14 hin durch ein Plattenelement 18 verschlossen, welches zwischen die offenen Schenkel des U-Profils eingeschweißt ist, so daß die Stand­fuße 10 in ihrem unteren Abschnitt als Hohlprofil mit recht­eckigem oder quadratischem Querschnitt ausgebildet sind. Die beiden längeren Rahmenelemente des Grundrahmens 14 sind an ihren Stirnseiten mit den Plattenelementen 18 der Standfüße 10 verschweißt. Am unteren Ende der Standfuße 10 sind napf­formige Stand- und Stapelelemente 20 mit rechteckigem Quer­schnitt und sich nach unten erweiterndem Durchmesser ange­schweißt, in die die oberen Enden von Vertikalelementen 44,46 der Seitenteile 4,6 einer darunterliegenden Palette bis zu einer vorbestimmten Länge einführbar sind.However, this open side is closed in the lower section of the feet 10 up to the upper edge of the base frame 14 by a plate element 18 which is welded between the open legs of the U-profile, so that the feet 10 in their lower section as a hollow profile with a rectangular or square cross-section are formed. The two longer frame elements of the base frame 14 are welded on their end faces to the plate elements 18 of the feet 10. At the lower end of the pedestal 10 are cup-shaped stand and stacking elements 20 with a rectangular cross-section and a diameter widening downward, into which the upper ends of vertical elements 44, 46 of the side parts 4, 6 of an underlying pallet can be inserted up to a predetermined length.

Zwischen den kürzeren Rahmenelementen 12 des Grundrahmens 14 sind in einer horizontalen Ebene zwei Paare von Tragele­menten 22, 24, 26, 28 angeordnet. Diese Tragelemente ver­laufen parallel zueinander und zu den längeren Rahmenele­menten 13 des Grundrahmens 14 und sind an ihren Enden mit den Innenseiten der kürzeren Rahmenelemente 12 verschweißt. Die Tragelemente 22, 24, 26, 28 weisen einen quadratischen Querschnitt auf und sind hochkant im Grundrahmen 14 derart angeordnet, daß die beiden äußeren Tragelemente 22, 28 an den Innenseiten der längeren Rahmenelemente 13 anliegen und mit diesen abschnittsweise verschweißt sind, während die inneren Tragelemente 24, 26 in einem Abstand von dem zuge­ordneten äußeren Tragelement 22 bzw. 28 vorgesehen sind, der etwas geringer als der Außendurchmesser der aufzunehmenden Fahrzeugreifen ist. Auf diese Weise kann auf jedem Paar 22,24; 26,28 von Tragelementen eine Reihe von Fahrzeugreifen stehend gelagert werden.Two pairs of support elements 22, 24, 26, 28 are arranged in a horizontal plane between the shorter frame elements 12 of the base frame 14. These support elements run parallel to one another and to the longer frame elements 13 of the base frame 14 and are welded at their ends to the inner sides of the shorter frame elements 12. The support elements 22, 24, 26, 28 have a square cross section and are upright in the base frame 14 arranged that the two outer support elements 22, 28 rest on the inner sides of the longer frame elements 13 and are welded to them in sections, while the inner support elements 24, 26 are provided at a distance from the associated outer support element 22 and 28, which is slightly less than the outside diameter of the vehicle tires to be accommodated. In this way, 22.24; 26,28 of supporting elements a number of vehicle tires are stored upright.

An die Unterkanten der Tragelemente 22, 24, 26, 28, die nach unten über den unteren Schenkel des Grundrahmens 14 hinaus ragen, sind drei Paare von in Längsrichtung beabstandeten Stapler-Auflageplatten 30 angeschweißt. Die Stapel-Auf­lageplatten 30 sind derart angeordnet, daß die Staplerarme sowohl von der Längsseite als auch von der Breitseite her unter das Bodenteil 2 eingeführt werden können und die Palette bei beiden Transportarten kippsicher auf den Gabel­staplerarmen aufliegt.To the lower edges of the support elements 22, 24, 26, 28, which protrude downward beyond the lower leg of the base frame 14, three pairs of forklift support plates 30 spaced apart in the longitudinal direction are welded on. The stack support plates 30 are arranged in such a way that the forklift arms can be inserted under the base part 2 both from the long side and from the broad side and the pallet rests against the forklift arms in both types of transport in a manner that does not tip over.

Die Sicherheit gegen seitliches Kippen oder Abgleiten der Palette von den Gabelstaplerarmen wird weiterhin durch zwei U-förmig gebogene Haltebügel 32 gewahrleistet, die von unten her auf die längeren Rahmenelemente 13 des Grundrahmens 14 aufgeschweißt sind und eine geschlossene Einstecköffnung für die Gabelstaplerarme bilden. Dabei ist es ausreichend, daß auf jedem Rahmenelement 13 jeweils nur ein Haltebügel 32 vorgesehen wird.The security against lateral tipping or sliding of the pallet from the forklift arms is further ensured by two U-shaped bracket 32 which are welded from below onto the longer frame elements 13 of the base frame 14 and form a closed insertion opening for the forklift arms. It is sufficient that only one bracket 32 is provided on each frame element 13.

Die Standfestigkeit der Palette kann durch zwei unterhalb der kürzeren Rahmenelemente 12 des Grundrahmens 14 angeordne­te Flachstahl-Elemente 34 erreicht werden, die an den Stand- und Stapelelementen 20 der Standfüße 10 angeschweißt sind und zur Mitte hin durch zwischen den Flachstahl-Elementen 34 und den Rahmenelementen 12 angeordnete Stützen 36 abgestützt werden.The stability of the pallet can be achieved by two flat steel elements 34 arranged below the shorter frame elements 12 of the base frame 14, which are welded to the stand and stack elements 20 of the feet 10 and towards the center by between the flat steel elements 34 and the frame elements 12 arranged supports 36 supported will.

Auf dem oberen Schenkel der Rahmenelemente 12 sind jeweils zwei von den Enden der Rahmenelemente 12 zur Mitte hin ver­laufende, L-förmige Flachstahlelemente 38 hochkant aufge­schweißt, welche zwei seitliche, parallel zur Längsrichtung der Palette verlaufende Aufnahmeräume für die Tragelemente 8 stirnseitig und im Bereich der Rahmenelemente 12 durch das abgebogene Ende auch seitlich begrenzen. In diese Aufnahme­räume werden die Tragelemente 8 eingelegt, wenn die Seiten­teile 4,6 eingeklappt werden. Zur Geräuschreduzierung sind die oberen Schenkel der Rahmenelemente 12 im Bereich des Aufnahmebereichs für die Tragelemente 8 mit einer lärm­dämmenden Auflage 40 versehen.On the upper leg of the frame elements 12, two L-shaped flat steel elements 38, which run from the ends of the frame elements 12 towards the center, are welded on edge, which two lateral, parallel to the longitudinal direction of the pallet receiving spaces for the support elements 8 on the front and in the area of the frame elements 12 also limit laterally by the bent end. The support elements 8 are inserted into these receiving spaces when the side parts 4, 6 are folded. To reduce noise, the upper legs of the frame elements 12 are provided with a noise-reducing pad 40 in the area of the receiving area for the support elements 8.

Oberhalb der Rahmenelemente 12 sind die Standfüße 10 mit einem parallel zu den Rahmenelementen 12 verlaufenden Quer­rohr 42 verbunden, um ihre Stabilität zu erhöhen.Above the frame elements 12, the feet 10 are connected to a cross tube 42 running parallel to the frame elements 12 in order to increase their stability.

Die äußeren Vertikalelemente 44,46 der Seitenteile 4,6 sind hohl und weisen einen quadratischen Querschnitt auf. Der Außendurchmesser dieser Vertikalelemente 44, 46 ist etwas geringer als die lichte Weite zwischen den parallelen Schen­keln der nach oben hin offenen, U-förmigen Standfuße 10, so daß die Vertikalelemente 44, 46 mit ihrem unteren Endbereich 48 von oben her in die Standfüße 10 eingeführt werden kön­nen.The outer vertical elements 44, 46 of the side parts 4, 6 are hollow and have a square cross section. The outer diameter of these vertical elements 44, 46 is slightly less than the clear width between the parallel legs of the upwardly open, U-shaped feet 10, so that the vertical elements 44, 46 are inserted with their lower end region 48 into the feet 10 from above can be.

Oberhalb des Endbereichs 48 sind die beiden Vertikalelemente 44, 46 mit einer horizontal verlaufenden hohlen Querstange 50 von quadratischem Querschnitt und in der Nähe ihrer oberen Enden mit einem horizontalen Querrohr 52 miteinander verbunden. Die Querstange 50 und das Querrohr 52 sind durch zwei parallel verlaufende, innere Vertikalelemente 54, 56 von der Form einer Hohlstange mit quadratischem Querschnitt schweißt, wobei das Verbinden der oberen Enden der Vertikal­elemente 54, 56 mit dem Querrohr 52 dadurch vereinfacht wird, daß die oberen Enden der Vertikalelemente 54, 56 zusammengepreßt, d.h. abgeplattet werden. Zwischen den Ver­tikalelementen 54, 56 ist ein horizontales Stabilisierungs­rohr 58 eingeschweißt.Above the end region 48, the two vertical elements 44, 46 are connected to one another with a horizontally running hollow cross bar 50 of square cross section and near their upper ends with a horizontal cross tube 52. The cross bar 50 and the cross tube 52 are formed by two parallel inner vertical elements 54, 56 in the form of a hollow bar with a square cross section welds, the connection of the upper ends of the vertical elements 54, 56 to the cross tube 52 being simplified in that the upper ends of the vertical elements 54, 56 are pressed together, ie flattened. A horizontal stabilizing tube 58 is welded in between the vertical elements 54, 56.

Weiterhin sind zwischen den benachbarten äußeren und inneren Vertikalelementen 44, 54 bzw. 46, 56 jeweils vier überein­anderliegende, rohrförmige, horizontale Querträger 60, 62, 64, 66 angeordnet, die an ihren Enden mit den Vertikal­elementen 44, 54 bzw. 46, 56 verschweißt sind. Zwei Quer­träger eines Seitenteils 4, 6 sind jeweils auf gleicher Höhe angeordnet.Furthermore, between the adjacent outer and inner vertical elements 44, 54 and 46, 56, four superposed, tubular, horizontal cross members 60, 62, 64, 66 are arranged, which are welded at their ends to the vertical elements 44, 54 and 46, 56 are. Two cross members of a side part 4, 6 are each arranged at the same height.

Die Querträger 60, 62, 64, 66 dienen als Auflage für die Tragelemente 8, die mittels Aussparungen 84 in die Quer­träger eingehangt werden. Der Vertikalabstand zwischen den beiden unteren Querträgern 60, 62 und zwischen den beiden oberen Querträgern 64, 66 ist dabei deutlich geringer als der Vertikalabstand zwischen den beiden mittleren Querträgern 62, 64. Von den zwei übereinander angeordneten Paaren von Querträgern 60, 62 bzw. 64, 66 dient somit bei Verwendung von acht Tragelementen 8 pro Palette nur jeweils ein Querträger als Tragelement für jeweils ein Paar Trag­elemente, während der andere Querträger eines Paares unbe­nutzt bleibt. Die Wahl, ob die Tragelemente 8 auf die oberen Querträger 62, 66 oder unteren Querträger 60, 64 eines Paares von Querträgern aufgelegt werden, hängt von der Größe der Reifen und der Art der Lagerung ab.The crossbeams 60, 62, 64, 66 serve as a support for the support elements 8, which are hooked into the crossbeams by means of cutouts 84. The vertical distance between the two lower cross members 60, 62 and between the two upper cross members 64, 66 is significantly smaller than the vertical distance between the two middle cross members 62, 64. Of the two pairs of cross members 60, 62 and 64 arranged one above the other, 66 is thus used when using eight support elements 8 per pallet, only one cross member as a support element for a pair of support elements, while the other cross member of a pair remains unused. The choice of whether the support elements 8 are placed on the upper cross members 62, 66 or lower cross members 60, 64 of a pair of cross members depends on the size of the tires and the type of storage.

Zusätzlich zur vertikalen Verstellmöglichkeit der Trag­elemente 8 in Abhängigkeit von der Wahl der sprossenartigen Querträger 60,62,64,66 läßt sich jedoch auch der horizontale Abstand der Tragelemente 8 zueinander variieren. Dies er­ folgt mittels zweier Horizontalanschläge 68, die an jedem Querträger 60, 62, 64, 66 in einem bestimmten Abstand zu den Vertikalelementen 44, 54, 46, 56 angebracht sind. Die Hori­zontalanschläge 68 bestehen günstigerweise aus Unterlegschei­ben, die auf die Querträger aufgeschweißt werden. Werden die Tragelemente 8 zwischen den Horizontalanschlägen 68 und den benachbarten Vertikalelementen 44, 54, 46, 56 in den Quer­trägern eingehängt, so werden die Tragelemente 8 eines Paares durch das Gewicht der Reifen nach außen gedrückt, so daß sie an den Vertikalelementen anliegen und einen relativ großen Horizontalabstand zueinander aufweisen. Wird dagegen mindestens ein Tragelement 8 eines Paares innerhalb eines Ho­rizontalanschlags 68 auf den Querträger aufgelegt bzw. in diesen eingehängt, wird der Horizontalabstand zweier zusam­mengehorenden Tragelemente 8 um den Betrag verringert, der sich aus der Addition des Abstands des Horizontalanschlags 68 zum benachbarten Vertikalelement und der Dicke des Hori­zontalanschlags 68 ergibt.In addition to the vertical adjustment possibility of the support elements 8 depending on the choice of rung-like cross members 60, 62, 64, 66, however, the horizontal distance of the support elements 8 from one another can also be varied. This he follows by means of two horizontal stops 68, which are attached to each cross member 60, 62, 64, 66 at a certain distance from the vertical elements 44, 54, 46, 56. The horizontal stops 68 advantageously consist of washers which are welded onto the cross members. If the support elements 8 are suspended between the horizontal stops 68 and the adjacent vertical elements 44, 54, 46, 56 in the cross members, the support elements 8 of a pair are pressed outwards by the weight of the tires, so that they rest against the vertical elements and a relative have a large horizontal distance from each other. If, on the other hand, at least one support element 8 of a pair is placed on or suspended from the cross member within a horizontal stop 68, the horizontal distance between two associated support elements 8 is reduced by the amount resulting from the addition of the distance of the horizontal stop 68 from the adjacent vertical element and the thickness of the horizontal stop 68 results.

Die äußeren Vertikalelemente 44, 46 der Seitenteile 4, 6 weisen im unteren Endbereich 48 einen Auflagezapfen 70 auf, der im aufgerichteten Zustand der Seitenteile in Vertief­ungen 72 liegt, welche in den oberen Stirnseiten der Stand­füße 10 eingebracht sind. Am unteren Ende ihres Endbereichs 48 werden die Vertikalelemente 44, 46 weiterhin durch eine nicht dargestellte Schraube oder einen Bolzen schwenkbar ge­halten, welche durch ein im inneren Schenkel des im Quer­schnitt U-förmigen Standfußes 10 vorgesehenes, vertikales Langloch 74 und durch eine am unteren Ende der Vertikal­elemente 44, 46 vorgesehene Bohrung 76 steckbar ist und ein Schwenklager bildet.The outer vertical elements 44, 46 of the side parts 4, 6 have a support pin 70 in the lower end region 48, which in the erected state of the side parts lies in depressions 72 which are introduced into the upper end faces of the feet 10. At the lower end of its end region 48, the vertical elements 44, 46 are further pivotally held by a screw or a bolt, not shown, which is provided by a vertical elongated hole 74 provided in the inner leg of the U-shaped pedestal 10 in cross section and by one at the lower end of the Vertical elements 44, 46 provided bore 76 is pluggable and forms a pivot bearing.

Zum Schwenken der Seitenteile 4, 6 von ihrer aufgerichteten Stellung in die in Fig. 1 gestrichelt dargestellte, liegende Stellung ist es lediglich erforderlich, die Seitenteile 4, 6 soweit anzuheben, daß die Auflagezapfen 70 aus den Vertief­ungen 72 gehoben und die Seitenteile 4, 6 nach innen ge­schwenkt werden. Beim Aufrichten der Seitenteile 4,6 müssen diese lediglich soweit angehoben werden, daß der Auflage­zapfen 70 über eine Abrundung 86 der Standfüße 10 in die Ver­tiefung 72 gelangen kann, in der die Seitenteile 4,6 auf­grund ihres Gewichtes dann sicher gehalten werden.For pivoting the side parts 4, 6 from their erected Position in the lying position shown in dashed lines in Fig. 1, it is only necessary to raise the side parts 4, 6 so far that the support pin 70 is lifted out of the recesses 72 and the side parts 4, 6 are pivoted inwards. When erecting the side parts 4, 6, these only have to be raised to such an extent that the support pin 70 can get into the recess 72 via a rounding 86 of the feet 10, in which the side parts 4, 6 are then held securely due to their weight.

In Fig. 3 a bis d sind einige Anordnungsmöglichkeiten für Fahrzeugreifen innerhalb der Palette dargestellt, die sich aufgrund der vertikalen und horizontalen Verstellmöglichkeit der Tragelemente 8 ergeben. Die Fahrzeugreifen sind dabei in zwei nebeneinanderliegenden Reihen und in drei Etagen ange­ordnet.In Fig. 3 a to d some arrangement options for vehicle tires within the range are shown, which result from the vertical and horizontal adjustment of the support elements 8. The vehicle tires are arranged in two adjacent rows and on three levels.

Fig. 3 a zeigt sechs Horizontalreihen von Fahrzeugreifen, die stehend auf den Tragelementen 8 bzw. 22, 24, 26, 28 ange­ordnet sind. Die Tragelemente 8 liegen an den Vertikalele­menten 44, 54; 46, 56 der Seitenteile 4, 6 an, so daß der Ab­stand zwischen den zusammengehörenden Tragelementen 8 maxi­mal ist. Die Tragstangen 8 liegen außerdem auf den oberen Querträgern 62, 66 des zu einer Etage gehörenden Paares von Querträgern 60, 62 bzw. 64,66. Werden die jeweils inneren Tragelemente 8 jedoch, wie in Fig. 3 b gezeigt ist, inner­halb der inneren Horizontalanschläge 68 angeordnet werden, so wird der Abstand zwischen den Reifen der Reifenreihen 78 und denjenigen der Reifenreihen 80 vergrößert, so daß Reifen mit größerem Außendurchmesser aufgenommen werden können.Fig. 3 a shows six horizontal rows of vehicle tires, which are arranged standing on the support elements 8 and 22, 24, 26, 28. The support elements 8 lie on the vertical elements 44, 54; 46, 56 of the side parts 4, 6, so that the distance between the associated support elements 8 is maximum. The support rods 8 also lie on the upper cross members 62, 66 of the pair of cross members 60, 62 and 64, 66 belonging to a floor. If, however, the respective inner support elements 8, as shown in FIG. 3 b, are arranged within the inner horizontal stops 68, the distance between the tires of the rows of tires 78 and those of the rows of tires 80 is increased, so that tires with a larger outside diameter are accommodated can.

In Fig. 3 c liegen die Tragelemente 8 auf den jeweils unte­ren Querträgern 60, 64 einer Etage auf, wodurch Platz für weitere Reifen 82 geschaffen wird, welche liegend auf den beiden obersten Reifenreihen 78, 80 angeordnet sind.In Fig. 3 c, the support elements 8 lie on the respective lower cross members 60, 64 of a floor, which creates space for further tires 82 which are arranged lying on the top two rows 78, 80.

Im Falle sehr großer Reifen kann es günstig sein, pro Etage nicht zwei Reifenreihen nebeneinander, sondern jeweils nur eine Reifenreihe vorzusehen, wobei die Reifenreihen, wie in Fig. 3 d dargestellt ist, abwechselnd seitlich versetzt ange­ordnet sind.In the case of very large tires, it may be advantageous not to provide two rows of tires next to one another, but rather only one row of tires, the rows of tires being alternately offset laterally, as shown in FIG. 3d.

Mittels acht Querträger pro Seitenteil, die in der gezeigten Weise angeordnet werden und die dazugehörigen Horizontalan­schläge 68 lassen sich die Tragelemente 8 in einer Vielzahl weiterer, in den Fig. 3 a - d nicht dargestellten Stellungen positionieren. Ferner ist es möglich, mit Hilfe des vor­stehend erläuterten Prinzips Paletten zu schaffen, welche nicht nur zwei, sondern drei oder mehr nebeneinander ange­ordnete Reifenreihen in einer unterschiedlichen Anzahl von Etagen aufnehmen können.By means of eight cross members per side part, which are arranged in the manner shown and the associated horizontal stops 68, the support elements 8 can be positioned in a large number of further positions, not shown in FIGS. 3 a - d. Furthermore, with the aid of the principle explained above, it is possible to create pallets which can accommodate not only two but three or more rows of tires arranged next to one another on a different number of levels.
