Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Transportpalette bestehend aus einer Basispalette mit einem in diese formschlüssig einlegbaren Einlegeboden und einem Deckel.The present invention relates to a transport pallet consisting of a base pallet with a shelf that can be positively inserted therein and a lid.

Aus der EP-A-0 229 392 ist eine derartige Palette bekannt, die aus drei Teilen zusammensetzbar ist. Hierbei erfolgt die Fixierung der einzelnen Palettenteile mittels separater Nocken, die in entsprechende Positionierungsöffnungen hineinragen. Weiterhin sind in die Tragfläche der Palette eine Vielzahl von Löchern vorgesehen, die für den Fall der Herstellung durch Tiefziehen einer aufwendigen Nachbearbeitung z.B. durch Bohren oder dergleichen erforderlich machen würden. Aus diesem Grunde soll diese bekannte Palette insbesondere durch Form- oder Spritzgießen hergestellt werden.Such a pallet is known from EP-A-0 229 392, which can be assembled from three parts. The individual pallet parts are fixed by means of separate cams that protrude into corresponding positioning openings. Furthermore, a plurality of holes are provided in the wing of the pallet, which in the case of production by deep drawing a complex post-processing, e.g. would require by drilling or the like. For this reason, this known range is to be produced in particular by molding or injection molding.

Aus der FR-A-2 178 436 ist eine dreiteilige Palette bekannt, bei der das Basisteil eine umlaufende geneigte Wand aufweist, die mit einem Fortsatz des Zwischenbodens zusammenwirkt. Hierbei liegt der Zwischenboden mit einer horizontalen Fläche auf einer gegenüberliegenden horizontalen Fläche des Basisteils auf. Durch dieses Aufeinanderliegen von Zwischenboden und Basisteil ergibt sich aber ein erhöhter Platzbedarf.A three-part pallet is known from FR-A-2 178 436, in which the base part has a circumferential inclined wall which interacts with an extension of the intermediate floor. Here, the intermediate floor rests with a horizontal surface on an opposite horizontal surface of the base part. This stacking of the mezzanine and base part results in an increased space requirement.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Palette zu schaffen, die einen Transport der mit ihr zu transportierenden Teile vom Herstellungsort der Teile bis zum Ort des Einbaus erlaubt, ohne daß ein Umladen der Teile erforderlich ist und wobei eine genau definierte Lage der Teile auf der Palette gewährleistet wird sowohl ein sicherer, beschädigungsfreier Hintransport der Teile als auch ein platzsparender Rücktransport der leeren Palette gegeben ist.The invention has for its object to provide a range that allows a transport of the parts to be transported with it from the place of manufacture of the parts to the place of installation, without the need to reload the parts and with a precisely defined position of the parts on the Pallet is guaranteed both a safe, damage-free transport of the parts and a space-saving return transport of the empty pallet is given.

Erfindungsgemäß wird dies durch eine Transportpalette der eingangs beschriebenen Art erreicht, bei der der Einlegeboden und der Deckel an ihren einander zugekehrten Seiten Aufnahmen zur formschlüssigen Halterung von zwischen ihnen angeordneten, zu transportierenden Gegenständen aufweisen, wobei die Basispalette, der Einlegeboden und der Deckel als Tiefziehformteile ausgebildet sind, die Basispalette einen im wesentlichen ebenen Boden und einen umlaufenden Randsteg aufweist, der Randsteg einen Auflagerand besitzt, der mit dem Randsteg einen stumpfen Winkel einschließt, der Randsteg einen Seitenwandabschnitt des Einlegebodens formschlüssig umfaßt, und der Einlegeboden an seiner Unterseite einen umlaufenden horizontalen, auf dem Randsteg aufliegenden Auflagebereich besitzt, der mit dem Seitenwandabschnitt einen stumpfen Winkel entsprechend demjenigen zwischen dem Auflagerand und dem Randsteg einschließt.According to the invention, this is achieved by a transport pallet of the type described in the introduction, in which the shelf and the lid have receptacles on their mutually facing sides for the form-fitting holding of objects to be transported which are arranged between them, the base pallet, the shelf and the lid being formed as deep-drawn molded parts are, the base pallet has a substantially flat bottom and a circumferential edge web, the edge web has a support edge which forms an obtuse angle with the edge web, the edge web positively encloses a side wall section of the shelf, and the shelf on its underside has a circumferential horizontal has the support area lying on the edge web, which includes an obtuse angle with the side wall section corresponding to that between the support edge and the edge web.

Durch den Aufbau der erfindungsgemäßen Transportpalette aus einer Basispalette, einem Einlegeboden und dem Deckel ergibt sich die Möglichkeit, daß die zu transportierenden Teile während ihrer Herstellung bereits nach Abschluß des Fertigungsvorgangs auf dem Einlegeboden abgelegt werden können, und zwar in derjenigen Lage, wie später beispielsweise die Entnahme durch einen Roboter oder dergleichen am Montageort erfolgen soll, d.h. durch die formschlüssige Anordnung der Teile auf dem Einlegeboden kann eine ganz bestimmte Ausrichtung bereits in bezug auf die spätere Weiterverarbeitung vorgenommen werden. Zudem können die Einlegeböden unabhängig von der Basispalette auf Montagebändern abgelegt werden, um dann für den Weitertransport in die Basispalette eingesetzt zu werden, und zwar mit dem bereits auf ihnen befindlichen, zu transportierenden Teilen. Durch den Deckel, der erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen ist, erfolgt eine Abdeckung der zu transportierenden Teile von oben und gegebenenfalls auch im Seitenbereich, wodurch ein Beschädigungsschutz bewirkt wird und gleichzeitig eine zusätzliche Lagefixierung. Erfindungsgemäß wird somit durch die Palette eine in sich geschlossene Transporteinheit geschaffen. Für die Entnahme der zu transportierenden Teile wird der Deckel entfernt und die Teile werden zusammen mit dem Einlegeboden aus der Basispalette entnommen und können wiederum auf ein Montageband abgestellt werden. Die leere Palette kann dann mit oder ohne Einlegeboden zurücktransportiert werden, wobei der Platzbedarf wesentlich reduziert ist, da die einzelnen Palettenteile unabhängig voneinander gestapelt werden können.Due to the construction of the transport pallet according to the invention from a basic pallet, a shelf and the lid, there is the possibility that the parts to be transported can be placed on the shelf during their manufacture after the completion of the manufacturing process, in that position, such as later, for example Removal should be done by a robot or the like at the installation site, ie Due to the form-fitting arrangement of the parts on the shelf, a very specific alignment can be carried out with regard to subsequent processing. In addition, the shelves can be placed on assembly belts independently of the basic pallet, in order to then be used for further transport in the basic pallet, with the parts already to be transported on them. The cover, which is provided according to the invention, covers the parts to be transported from above and, if appropriate, also in the side area, which provides protection against damage and at the same time an additional positional fixation. According to the invention, a self-contained transport unit is thus created by the pallet. To remove the parts to be transported, the cover is removed and the parts are removed from the basic pallet together with the shelf and can in turn be placed on an assembly line. The empty pallet can then be transported back with or without a shelf, the space requirement being significantly reduced since the individual pallet parts can be stacked independently of one another.

Weiterhin kann es erfindungsgemäß vorteilhaft sein, wenn an der Unterseite der Basispalette Füße ausgebildet sind sowie auf der Oberseite des Deckels Aufnahmen zur formschlüssigen Halterung der Füße. Hierdurch können mehrere erfindungsgemäße Transportpaletten übereinander angeordnet werden, wobei eine sichere Lagefixierung der Paletten gegeneinander erreicht wird. Weiterhin kann es erfindungsgemäß vorteilhaft sein, wenn mindestens ein Zwischenboden zwischen dem Einlegeboden und dem Deckel angeordnet ist, wobei dieser Zwischenboden beidseitig ausgebildete Aufnahmen zur formschlüssigen Halterung der zu transportierenden Gegenstände besitzt. Durch diesen Zwischenboden kann eine mehrlagige Anordnung der zu transportierenden Teile vorgenommen werden.Furthermore, it can be advantageous according to the invention if feet are formed on the underside of the base pallet and receptacles for positively holding the feet on the top of the lid. This allows several according to the invention Transport pallets are arranged one above the other, whereby a secure position fixing of the pallets against each other is achieved. Furthermore, it can be advantageous according to the invention if at least one intermediate floor is arranged between the shelf and the cover, this intermediate floor having receptacles formed on both sides for the form-fitting holding of the objects to be transported. A multi-layer arrangement of the parts to be transported can be carried out through this intermediate floor.

Wie sich aus Fig. 1 ergibt, besteht eine erfindungsgemäße Transportpalette aus einer Basispalette 1, einem Einlegeboden 2, der im Ausführungsbeispiel auf der Basispalette aufgelegt werden kann, und in dieser formschlüssig fixiert wird, sowie einem Deckel 3, wobei mit der Transportpalette zu transportierende Gegenstände 8 zwischen dem Einlegeboden 2 und dem Deckel 3 gelagert und gehaltert sind. Die Basipalette 1, der Einlegeboden 2 und der Deckel 3 sind erfindungsgemäß als Kunststofftiefziehformteile ausgebildet, wodurch sich eine preisgünstige Herstellung und ein geringes Gewicht ergeben. Die Basispalette 1 besteht aus einem wesentlichen ebenen Boden 4, in dem Füße 5 ausgeformt sind. Diese Füße 5 sind als pyramidenstumpfförmige Hohlkörper hergestellt und zum Boden 4 hin offen. Es liegt ebenfalls im Rahmen der Erfindung, dem Boden 4 eine Negativkontur derart zu geben, daß er der äußeren Form des Einlegebodens 2 entspricht. Im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel sind insgesamt neun Füße 5 vorhanden, und zwar jeweils drei Reihen mit je drei Füßen 5. Weiterhin weist die Basispalette einen am Umfang des Bodens 4 angeformten Randsteg 6 auf, wobei der Boden im an den Randsteg 6 angrenzenden Bereich einen umlaufenden Auflagerand 16 besitzt. Der Randsteg 6 schließt mit dem horizontalen Auflagerand 16 vorzugsweise einen stumpfen Winkel ein, so daß sich die vom Randsteg 6 umfaßte Öffnung nach oben erweitert. Der Einlegeboden 2 ist derart ausgebildet, daß er mit einem an seiner Unterseite ausgebildeten, umlaufenden, insbesondere horizontalen Auflagebereich 17 im eingesetzten Zustand auf dem Auflagerand 16 aufliegt. Des weiteren besitzt der Einlegeboden 2 einen Seitenwandabschnitt 18, der derart geformt ist, daß dieser von dem Randsteg 6 im eingesetzten Zustand formschlüssig umfaßt wird, so daß der Einlegeboden 2 auf der Basispalette 1 fixiert ist. Der Seitenwandabschnitt 18 bildet hierbei mit dem Auflagebereich 17 einen stufenförmigen Übergang, wobei der Seitenwandabschnitt 18 mit dem Auflagebereich 17 einen stumpfen Winkel einschließt, der dem stumpfen Winkel zwischen dem Randsteg 6 und dem Auflagerand 16 angepaßt ist. Hierdurch ergibt sich eine Selbstzentrierung des Einlegebodens 2 in der Basispalette 1 beim Einsetzen desselben. Demnach ist die Fixierung des Einlegebodens 2 in der Basispalette 1 unabhängig von der Form der zu stapelnden Teile. Der Deckel 3 ist in seinen Abmessungen der Basispalette 1 entsprechend angepaßt und weist an seiner Oberseite Aufnahmen 7 für die Füße 5 der Basispalette 1 auf, so daß die Füße 5 in den Aufnahmen 7 gegen Verrutschen, vorzugsweise durch formschlüssige Umfassung gesichert sind. Hierdurch kann auf den Deckel 3 die Basispalette einer weiteren erfindungsgemäßen Transportpalette aufgesetzt werden, so daß ein Stapel aus mehreren erfindungsgemäßen Transportpaletten gebildet werden kann. Die gesamte erfindungsgemäße Transportpalette kann in sich zusätzlich dadurch stabilisiert werden, daß ein Zurrband um die Palette, d.h. um die Basispalette 1 und den Deckel 3 herum festgezurrt wird.As can be seen from FIG. 1, a transport pallet according to the invention consists of a basic pallet 1, a shelf 2, which can be placed on the base pallet in the exemplary embodiment, and is positively fixed in this, and a lid 3, objects 8 to be transported with the transport pallet being stored and held between the shelf 2 and the lid 3. The base pallet 1, the shelf 2 and the lid 3 are designed according to the invention as plastic deep-drawn molded parts, which results in inexpensive manufacture and low weight. The base pallet 1 consists of an essentially flat bottom 4, in which feet 5 are formed. These feet 5 are made as a truncated pyramid-shaped hollow body and open towards the bottom 4. It is also within the scope of the invention to give the bottom 4 a negative contour in such a way that it corresponds to the outer shape of the shelf 2. In the exemplary embodiment shown, there are a total of nine feet 5, namely three rows each with three feet 5. Furthermore, the base pallet has an edge web 6 formed on the circumference of the base 4, the base in the area adjacent to the edge web 6 having a circumferential support edge 16 owns. The edge web 6 preferably forms an obtuse angle with the horizontal support edge 16, so that the opening encompassed by the edge web 6 widens upward. The shelf 2 is designed such that it rests on the support edge 16 in the inserted state with a circumferential, in particular horizontal, support region 17 formed on its underside. Furthermore, the shelf 2 has a side wall section 18 which is shaped such that it is positively embraced by the edge web 6 in the inserted state, so that the shelf 2 is fixed on the base pallet 1. The side wall section 18 forms a step-shaped transition with the support area 17, the side wall section 18 including an obtuse angle with the support area 17, which is adapted to the obtuse angle between the edge web 6 and the support edge 16. This results in self-centering of the shelf 2 in the basic pallet 1 when the same is inserted. Accordingly, the fixation of the shelf 2 in the base pallet 1 is independent of the shape of the parts to be stacked. The dimensions of the cover 3 of the base pallet 1 are adapted accordingly and on its upper side there are receptacles 7 for the feet 5 of the base pallet 1, so that the feet 5 in the receptacles 7 are secured against slipping, preferably by a positive engagement. As a result, the base pallet of a further transport pallet according to the invention can be placed on the cover 3, so that a stack can be formed from a plurality of transport pallets according to the invention. The entire transport pallet according to the invention can additionally be stabilized in that a lashing strap is lashed around the pallet, ie around the base pallet 1 and the lid 3.

Während in Fig. 1 das erfindungsgemäße Prinzip dargestellt ist, zeigen die Fig. 2 und 3 eine spezielle Ausgestaltung in Anpassung an die Form des zu transportierenden Gegenstandes 8. Hier ist in den Fig. 2 und 3 dargestellt, wie der zu transportierende Gegenstand 8 selbst in die Tragfunktion der Transportpalette eingezogen ist, indem der Deckel 3 und ein Zwischenboden 2 auf dem Gegenstand 8 aufliegen. Hierzu sind die dem Gegenstand 8 zugekehrten Seiten 10, 11 des Deckels 3 und des Einlegebodens 2 sowie die obere Seite 12 und die untere Seite 13 des Zwischenbodens 9 derart geformt, daß jeweils Aufnahmen 14 zur formschlüssigen Lagerung des Gegenstandes 8 an bestimmten Stellen vorhanden sind. Hierbei sind die Aufnahmen 14 insbesondere am Einlegeboden sowie am Zwischenboden derart, daß die darin gelagerten Gegenstände ohne seitliche Abstützung oder Fixierung von oben selbständig gehalten werden, so daß der Einlegeboden oder der Zwischenboden mit auf ihnen befindlichen Gegenständen beispielsweise auf Transportbändern unabhängig transportierbar sind. Zweckmäßig ist hierbei, wenn der Zwischenboden 9 und der Einlegeboden 2 identisch ausgeführt sind. Weiterhin ist zu erkennen, daß in die Aufnahmen 7 an der Deckeloberseite 15 die Basispalette 1 mit ihren Füßen 5 formschlüssig einsetzbar ist, so daß eine Stapelbarkeit erreicht wird. Zudem ist es zweckmäßig, wenn der Einlegeboden 2 derart an seine der Basispalette 1 zugekehrten Unterseite mit Vorsprüngen 20 zur Aufnahme der zu transportierenden Gegenstände ausgebildet ist, daß diese Vorsprünge 20 in die Hohlräume der hohlen Füße 5 hineinragen, und von den Fußwandungen insbesondere formschlüssig umfaßt werden.While the principle according to the invention is shown in FIG. 1, FIGS. 2 and 3 show a special embodiment adapted to the shape of the object 8 to be transported. Here, FIGS. 2 and 3 show how the object 8 to be transported itself is drawn into the carrying function of the transport pallet by the cover 3 and an intermediate floor 2 resting on the object 8. For this purpose, the sides 8, 11 of the cover 3 and the shelf 2 facing the object 8 and the upper side 12 and the lower side 13 of the intermediate base 9 are shaped such that receptacles 14 for the form-fitting storage of the object 8 on certain Jobs are available. Here, the receptacles 14, in particular on the shelf and on the intermediate floor, are such that the objects stored therein are held independently from above without lateral support or fixation, so that the shelf or the intermediate floor with objects located on them can be transported independently, for example on conveyor belts. It is useful if the intermediate floor 9 and the shelf 2 are identical. Furthermore, it can be seen that the base pallet 1 with its feet 5 can be inserted in a form-fitting manner in the receptacles 7 on the upper side 15 of the lid, so that stackability is achieved. In addition, it is expedient if the shelf 2 is formed on its underside facing the base pallet 1 with projections 20 for receiving the objects to be transported, that these projections 20 protrude into the cavities of the hollow feet 5, and in particular are positively embraced by the foot walls .

Was die Ausgestaltung der Basispalette 1 sowie des Einlegebodens 2 betrifft, so ist diese vorteilhafterweise derart, daß unabhängig von der Ausgestaltung des Einlegebodens 2 in Abhängigkeit von der Form der zu transportierenden Gegenstände 8 die Basispalette 1 unverändert ist, so daß beliebige Einlegeböden 2 in die Basispalette 1 passen. Darüber hinaus ergibt sich durch die Erfindung die Möglichkeit, die Basispalette 1 zum Rücktransport ineinander und übereinander zu stapeln, wodurch der erforderliche Raumbedarf reduziert ist.As far as the design of the base pallet 1 and the shelf 2 is concerned, this is advantageously such that, regardless of the design of the shelf 2 depending on the shape of the objects 8 to be transported, the base pallet 1 is unchanged, so that any shelves 2 in the base pallet 1 fit. In addition, the invention provides the possibility of stacking the base pallet 1 in one another and one above the other for return transport, as a result of which the required space is reduced.

Im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel sind die zu transportierenden Gegenstände im Einlegeboden 2, bzw. in dem Zwischenboden und/oder dem Deckel formschlüssig gehalten. Erfindungsgemäß kann aber auch eine Halterung durch Kraftschluß allein oder zusätzlich erfolgen.In the illustrated embodiment, the objects to be transported are held in a form-fitting manner in the shelf 2, or in the intermediate floor and / or the lid. According to the invention, however, it can also be held by force-locking alone or in addition.

Es liegt ebenfalls im Rahmen der Erfindung, wenn der Einlegeboden 2 der Zwischenboden 9 und der Deckel 3 derart an ihren einander zugekehrten Seiten ausgebildet sind und entsprechende Vorsprünge besitzen, daß eine Abstützung gegeneinander erfolgen kann, wobei dann eine Abstützung an dem Gegenstand 8 selbst nicht erforderlich ist. D.h. in den Zwischenböden bzw. Einlegeböden werden sogenannte Nester zur Aufnahme der zu transportierenden Gegenstände geschaffen.It is also within the scope of the invention if the shelf 2, the intermediate shelf 9 and the lid 3 are formed on their sides facing one another and have corresponding projections such that support against one another can take place, in which case support on the object 8 itself is not necessary is. I.e. In the intermediate floors or shelves, so-called nests are created to accommodate the objects to be transported.

Das für die erfindungsgemäße Transportpalette verwendete Kunststoffmaterial ist ein thermoplastisches Kunststoffmaterial, das zum Tiefziehen geeignet ist.The plastic material used for the transport pallet according to the invention is a thermoplastic material which is suitable for deep drawing.
