Definitions

  • the invention relates to a pallet for transporting horizontally stacked glazing, in particular automotive glazing, which has a carrier plate, four vertical posts in the corners and at least one pressure device acting from above on the stack of glazing for hold it against the plate.
  • Automobile glass is commonly transported in a vertical or slightly inclined position, placed one behind the other, on suitable pallets.
  • the known pallet tray is generally provided with two toothed racks or racks in the slots of which the volumes are installed.
  • a pressing device comprising a belt stretched over the base acts on their edges.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a pallet of robust construction and simple handling, making it possible to transport automotive glazing with safety in a horizontal position.
  • a pressing device consisting of a substantially horizontal rigid arm, capable of sliding at one end on a vertical post to be locked there in a chosen position and provided at the other end with a pressing member. the battery.
  • the pallet according to the invention lends itself to the transport of flat glazing as well as curved glazing, whether or not these bear frames, particular frame elements or accessories. While flat and bare glazing can be stacked tightly, it is necessary to interpose between curved glazing or glass carrying accessories such as a frame, electrical terminals, base for fixing a rear-view mirror or other series of spacers spacing them apart to keep them from hitting each other. These spacers and the support members arranged on the pallet carrier plate must then, of course, be aligned vertically to the right of the support piece so as not to exert bending forces on the volumes.
  • the pallet according to the invention is robust, economical, easy to use and it allows the glazing to be transported in complete safety.
  • a particularly simple and advantageous version stands out in that the arm is immobilized on the vertical upright by a pinch connection acting by leverage under the reaction of the stack of glazing units to the force exerted on it.
  • This connection can have the known structure where a ring of internal diameter slightly greater than the external diameter of the upright surrounds the latter, on which it can thus slide or lock while bracing.
  • a couple which blocks the arm on it it can very simply and advantageously combine: at the bottom of the rear end of this arm, a ring surrounding the upright and, at the top of it, a complementary scope.
  • the transport pallet comprises a carrying plate 1, formed of profiles 2 assembled in a frame, of struts 3 and of two carrying rules 4, four vertical angle posts 5, 6, 7 , 8 and cross members 9, 10 and 11 connecting them to their upper part: there are no cross members at the front between the uprights 5 and 8 so that this side is free for loading and unloading the pallet .
  • the upper face of the beams 4 is provided with openings 14 where are fixed support pads 15: these are made of an elastic material such as rubber or other suitable product, which adapts to the surface of the glass.
  • the first volume of the stack of glazing 16 rests horizontally on four studs 15. Between the successive volumes are each time placed spacers 17 also made of a very elastic material, and this always above the studs 15. Lends itself for example to this use a very elastic polyurethane elastomer, commercially available under the name REGUPOL.
  • the sleeve 22 is advantageously circular and of internal diameter such that it can rotate on the upright 21, consisting of a rectangular profile, if the pressing arm falls back into the low position or that it is placed high enough for the reach 25 to come at the level of a circular portion 26 of the upright 21 surmounting this profile.
  • the arm 20 can thus pivot by 90 ° around the upright to tilt vertically into the rest position shown in FIG. 2, supported for example on the cross-member 27.
  • the uprights 21 are fixed at the top on the cross 10 and below on the cross 27, this removably to be able to take several positions; the same applies to the supporting beams 4 on the profiles 2.
  • the assembly can thus be adapted to various sizes and shapes of glazing.
  • each pressing arm 20 can be shortened or lengthened telescopically, its anterior segment 28 sliding on the rear segment to which the sleeve 22 belongs, locked in the desired position by a pin 29.
  • the body 30 of a screw jack carrying a vertical threaded shaft 31 that a handle 32 can rotate by increasing the effort.
  • the lower end of the shaft 31 carries a plate intended to come to bear on the upper glazing of the stack and formed of a metal disc 33 of which a layer 34 of an elastic material covers the lower face.
  • the arms 20 are extracted from their rest position, placed horizontally, thus lowered along the uprights 21 until the pressure layer 34 comes into contact of the battery and the device presser energized on the pile by rotation of the handles 32.
  • FIG 3 shows an embodiment of a carrier rule 37 in the form of a quadrangular tube whose upper face carries from end to end a longitudinal slot 38 for sliding the support pads along its length.
  • Each pad here comprises a plate comprising a metal plate 39 which receives a seat of elastic rubber material 40 and a metal base 41 which rests by its foot 42 on the core of the tube 37 and supports a sphere 43 to form a ball joint with a cavity complementary to the plate 39; the position of the plate thus adapts effortlessly to the inclination of any volume.
  • the base comprises two cylindrical sections, the first, lower, 44, of diameter less than the width of the slot 38, the second, upper, 45, of diameter corresponding to that of openings 46 in Rule. We can thus lift the stud to move it along the beam but not remove it at the risk of losing it.
  • FIG. 4 shows another embodiment of a pallet according to the invention.
  • This has a load-bearing floor 50 comprising a frame formed by assembling profiles 51 with U and L sections, and four corner posts 52, 53, 54, 55 connected at the top by crosspieces 56, 57, 58.
  • the frame of the profiles 51 receives a metal grid 59, formed of steel plates crisscrossed on edge. It is possible to insert into the meshes of this grid, at the desired locations, studs 60, the upper part of which carries a rubbery elastic material.
  • the two rear posts 53, 54 are, with the exception of their upper part, made up of quadrangular tubes oriented so as to turn one face towards the space inside the pallet, that is to say towards the pile 16.
  • the pressing arms which here have the same structure as those described in connection with FIGS. 1 and 2, are mounted on these posts 53 and 54, so that auxiliary uprights are unnecessary.
  • a retaining ring 62 is mounted rigid, welded, at the bottom of the end of the segment 63 of the arm.
  • the ring 62 is on the quadrangular part of the post 53 or 54, the rear reach 61 of the segment 63 prohibits any horizontal pivoting of the pressing arm 20 around the post.
  • the upper part 64 of the posts 53, 54 is of circular section: during loading or unloading for example, the arms are thus raised to its height to rotate them and clear the interior space in placing them on the cradles 65.
  • the pallet also usefully has storage systems spacers 17.
  • spacers 17 consist of arms 68, with horizontal pivoting and carrying vertical pins 69 on which the spacers 17 are threaded, pierced with a median hole 70.
  • the arms 68 have a socket 71 rotating on one of the tubes circular section constituting the anterior posts 52 or 55, and a pin 72 makes it possible to stop them.
  • On the loaded pallet they will, for example, be stopped in the position shown; when empty, when the various spacers are placed on their pins 69, they can advantageously be placed in another position inside the pallet. When loading or unloading, it may be advantageous to orient them outside in an ergonomically more comfortable position.
  • FIGS 5 and 6 show in detail a particularly advantageous embodiment of the pressing arms.
  • Each arm 75 again has a rigid segment 76 at the rear end 77 of which is welded, at the bottom, a connecting ring 78, which cooperates with the high bearing surface 79 of the segment 76 to exert on the posts 80, in the working position , the pinch which blocks with certainty the arms 75 on the posts 80.
  • a reduction lever 83 At the front end of segment 76 is articulated on an axis 82 a reduction lever 83. This has in front a section 84 forming a handle. On a spindle 85 placed between it and the spindle 82 is articulated a nut 86. The latter carries downward a tenon 87 from which a bar 88 is suspended horizontally; this connection on the nut 86 may not be rigid but articulated, to form a spreader which can adapt to the position of the upper volume of the stack of glazing; advantageously this lifter will also rotate on the axis of the tenon 87.
  • the bar 88 carries, below, two support plates each consisting of a metal disc 89 and a rubbery lower layer 90. A single pressing device can thus act on two support plates placed at an appropriate distance, which is particularly recommended for large glazing, which must be kept in more than two locations.
  • a slide 92 movable along the section 76 of the arm serves to wedge the crew. It carries on its front edge a rib 93 which engages on a corresponding notch 94 on the underside of the lever 83 to maintain the latter in position.
  • the pressing arm 75 is placed in a lateral attachment 65 as shown in FIG. 6.
