Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Transportkasten für Transportgut von im wesentlichen Zylindrischer Querschnittsform, wie Flaschen, Dosen oder dergleichen, dessen Innenraum Reihen von Säulen aufweist, welche im Zwischenraum zwischen mehreren Einstellplätzen am Kastenboden befestigt sind.The invention relates to a transport box for goods of substantially cylindrical cross-sectional shape, such as bottles, cans or the like, the interior of which has rows of columns which are fastened in the space between a plurality of parking spaces on the box bottom.

Derartige Transportkästen sind in verschiedenen Ausführungsformen bekannt geworden. Die Säulen, auch Pinolen genannt, sind in geraden, sich kreuzenden Reihen angeordnet, die zwischen ihnen befindlichen Einstellplätze für das Transportgut sind ebenfalls in geraden, sich kreuzenden Reihen angeordnet. Diese Anordnung weist einen relativ hohen Raumbedarf pro Flascheneinstellplatz auf.Such transport boxes have become known in various embodiments. The pillars, also called quills, are arranged in straight, intersecting rows, the parking spaces for the goods located between them are also arranged in straight, intersecting rows. This arrangement requires a relatively large amount of space per bottle storage space.

Ein niedrigerer Raumbedarf pro Flascheneinstellplatz ist bei Flaschenkästen bekannt geworden, deren Innenraum durch wabenförmig angeordnete Fachwände unterteilt ist. Die dichtere Anordnung der Flascheneinstellplätze bringt es bei diesen Kästen mit wabenförmiger Innenwandanordnung mit sich, daß sie Probleme bei der automatischen Beladung mit sich bringen. Denn bei der sehr dichten Anordnung der Flascheneinstellplätze kommt es immer wieder vor, daß beim Beladen des Kastens in den Kasten hineingleitende Flaschen auf die Innenwände treffen.A lower space requirement per bottle storage location has become known for bottle crates, the interior of which is divided by compartment walls arranged in a honeycomb manner. The denser arrangement of the bottle storage spaces is associated with these boxes with a honeycomb inner wall arrangement, that they have problems with automatic loading. Because with the very dense arrangement of the bottle storage spaces, it happens again and again that when the box is loaded, bottles sliding into the box meet the inner walls.

Säulen im Innenraum des Flaschenkastens bringen den Vorteil mit sich, daß, weil sie nach oben spitz zulaufend ausgeführt sind, sie die in den Flaschenkasten hineingleitenden Flaschen auf den vorgesehenen Einstellplatz führen.Columns in the interior of the bottle crate have the advantage that, because they are tapered to the top, they guide the bottles sliding into the bottle crate to the designated place.

Die Erfindung vermeidet die Nachteile des Standes der Technik. Es ist die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, einen Transportkasten für Transportgut von im wesentlichen zylindrischer Querschnittsform zu schaffen, bei dem die Flascheneinstellplätze sehr dicht nebeneinander angeordnet sind und in den die Flaschen durch Säulen mit ihrem oberen dachförmigen Abschluß leicht auf die vorgesehenen Flascheneinstellplätze beim Hineingleiten geführt werden.The invention avoids the disadvantages of the prior art. It is the object of the present invention to provide a transport box for transport goods of substantially cylindrical cross-sectional shape, in which the bottle storage spaces are arranged very close to one another and in which the bottles are easily guided by columns with their upper roof-shaped closure onto the intended bottle storage spaces when sliding in .

Die Erfindung besteht darin, daß die Säulen im Querschnitt hantelförmig gestaltet sind, daß die Längsachsen der Säulenquerschnitte schräg zu den Kastenseitenwänden verlaufen, daß die Säulen in senkrecht zueinander verlaufenden geraden Reihen angeordnet sind und daß in einer Reihenrichtung die Säulen gleiche Schrägstellung aufweisen und in der anderen Reihenrichtung eine Schrägstellung mit wechselnder Längsachsenrichtung.The invention consists in that the columns are dumbbell-shaped in cross section, that the longitudinal axes of the column cross sections run obliquely to the box side walls, that the columns are arranged in straight rows running perpendicular to one another, and that the columns have the same inclination in one row direction and in the other Row direction an inclination with changing longitudinal axis direction.

In diesen Transportkasten gleitet das Transportgut von im wesentlichen zylindrischer Querschnittsform beim Befüllen des Kastens leicht auf die Einstellplätze, weil die Dächer der Säulen das Transportgut auf diese Plätze führen. Durch die besondere Querschnittsform der Säulen und ihre besondere Anordnung ist erreicht, daß das Transportgut sehr dicht nebeneinander steht und somit viel Transportgut auf wenig Bodenfläche unterbringbar ist. Die Flascheneinstellplätze sind dabei so ähnlich angeordnet, wie es von den Flaschenkästen mit wabenförmiger Innenwandanordnung bekannt ist.In this transport box, the transport goods of essentially cylindrical cross-sectional shape easily slide onto the parking spaces when the box is filled, because the roofs of the columns guide the transport goods to these places. The special cross-sectional shape of the columns and their special arrangement ensure that the goods to be transported are very close to one another and thus much goods to be transported can be accommodated on a small floor area. The bottle parking spaces are arranged in a similar way as is known from bottle crates with a honeycomb inner wall arrangement.

Dabei ist es zweckmäßig, wenn die Querschnittsform der Säulen durch vier zum Zentrum der Säule zu gewölbte Flächen bestimmt ist, zwei einander gegenüberliegende längere und zwei gegenüberliegende kürzere. Hierdurch wird eine sehr feste Säulenform erzielt, welche so beschaffen ist, daß das in den Transportkasten eingestellte Transportgut von im wesentlichen zylindrischer Querschnittsform sehr dicht, aber trotzdem auf Abstand, steht.It is expedient if the cross-sectional shape of the columns is determined by four surfaces that are curved toward the center of the column, two opposite longer ones and two opposite shorter ones. In this way, a very solid column shape is achieved, which is such that the goods placed in the transport box of essentially cylindrical cross-sectional shape are very dense, but still at a distance.

Dabei ist es zweckmäßig, wenn der Radius der gewölbten Flächen etwas größer als der Radius des einzustellenden Transportgutes ist.It is useful if the radius of the curved surfaces is slightly larger than the radius of the goods to be adjusted.

Vorteilhaft ist es, wenn die Schrägstellung durch einen Winkel der Längsachse der Querschnitte der Säulen zu den Seitenwänden des Kastens von 35o bis 55o, vorzugsweise 45o, bestimmt ist.It is advantageous if the inclination is determined by an angle of the longitudinal axis of the cross sections of the columns to the side walls of the box from 35 o to 55 o , preferably 45 o .

Für die Stabilität des Kastens ist es von Vorteil, wenn zumindest zwei gegenüberliegende Seitenwände doppelwandig ausgeführt sind, und die innere Wand Einbuchtungen zum Aufnehmen von Flaschen aufweist.For the stability of the box, it is advantageous if at least two opposite side walls are double-walled and the inner wall has indentations for receiving bottles.

Es besteht aber auch die Möglichkeit, den Flaschenkasten nur einwandig auszuführen und an den Wänden Hohlsäulen vorzusehen, die in den Zwischenraum zwischen zwei Flaschen ein Stück hineingreifen.However, there is also the possibility of making the bottle crate single-walled and to provide hollow columns on the walls which engage a little in the space between two bottles.

Für die Bodenausbildung ist es vorteilhaft, wenn der Boden aus die Säulen tragenden Tellern und aus diese Teller miteinander und mit den Seitenwänden verbindenen Stegen besteht, wobei die Stege in geraden Reihen, die durch die Zentren der Teller verlaufen, angeordnet sind und wobei parallel zu den in der Einrichtung verlaufenden Reihen weitere Stege zwischen den Randbereichen der Teller wechselnd zur einen und zur anderen Seite der Mittelstege angeordnet sind.For the floor formation, it is advantageous if the floor consists of plates supporting the columns and of these plates with webs connecting them and with the side walls, the webs being arranged in straight rows which run through the centers of the plates and being parallel to the rows in the device further rows between the edge areas of the plates are arranged alternately on one side and on the other side of the central webs.

Das Wesen der Erfindung ist nachstehend anhand eines in der Zeichnung schematisch dargestellten Ausführungsbeispieles näher erläutert. Es zeigen:

Der Flaschenkasten besteht aus zwei gegenüberliegenden Längsseitenwänden 1, 2 und zwei Stirnseitenwänden 3. Die Längsseitenwände 1, 2 sind doppelwandig ausgeführt, sie bestehen aus einer Außenlängsseitenwand 1 und einer Innenlängsseitenwand 2. Die Innenlängsseitenwand 2 weist Einbuchtungen 4 dort auf, wo sich Flascheneinstellplätze 5 befinden. Durch einen stark gezeichneten Ring 6 ist der Umfang eingestellten zylindrischen Transportgutes angedeutet. Der Boden des Flaschenkastens besteht aus Stegen 7, 8, 9, welche tellerförmige Scheiben 11 miteinander und mit den Seitenwänden verbinden. Diese tellerförmigen Scheiben 11 tragen Säulen 12. Diese Säulen 12 weisen in ihrer Längsachse in ihrem Dach 13 ein Loch 14 auf, welches aus formentechnischen Gründen vorhanden ist. Dieses Loch 14 markiert den Ort der Längsachse der Säule.The essence of the invention is explained below with reference to an embodiment shown schematically in the drawing. Show it:

on the left a section on the right a view of this bottle crate
The bottle crate consists of two opposite longitudinal side walls 1, 2 and two end side walls 3. The longitudinal side walls 1, 2 are double-walled, they consist of an outer longitudinal side wall 1 and an inner longitudinal side wall 2. The inner longitudinal side wall 2 has indentations 4 where bottle storage spaces 5 are located. The circumference of the cylindrical goods to be conveyed is indicated by a strongly drawn ring 6. The bottom of the bottle crate consists of webs 7, 8, 9 which connect plate-shaped disks 11 to one another and to the side walls. These plate-shaped disks 11 carry columns 12. These columns 12 have in their longitudinal axis in their roof 13 a hole 14, which is present for reasons of shape. This hole 14 marks the location of the longitudinal axis of the column.

Die Stege 7 verlaufen zwischen den tellerfömigen Scheiben 11 durch deren Längsachsen und erstrecken sich bis zu den Seitenwänden. Senkrecht hierzu verlaufen Stege 8 zwischen den einzelnen tellerförmigen Scheiben 11 in geraden Linien und verbinden die tellerförmigen Scheiben 11 miteinander und mit den Seitenwänden 1, 2. Parallel zu den Stegen 7 sind weitere Stege 9, 10 angeordnet, welche ebenfalls jeweils zwei tellerförmige Scheiben 11 miteinander und mit den Stirnseitenwänden 3 verbinden. Diese zusätzlichen Stege 9 liegen einmal auf der einen Seite des Mittelsteges 7, das andere Mal auf der anderen Seite, und zwar immer dort, wo Schmalseitenwände 15 der Säulen 12 einander zugekehrt sind, weil die Schmalseitenwände 15 der Säulen 12 dicht am Rand der tellerförmigen Scheiben 11 befindlich sind und daher für das eingestellte Transportgut an dieser Stelle wenig Aufstellfläche befindlich ist. Durch diese Stege 9 und 10 erhält das Transportgut eine Unterstützung. Das Transportgut steht somit auf Stegen 9 oder 10 und auf den relativ großen Telleroberflächenteilen 17. Das Transportgut steht somit an drei Stellen auf dem Boden auf, nämlich auf zwei Telleroberflächenteilen 17 und einem Steg 9 oder 10.The webs 7 run between the plate-shaped disks 11 through their longitudinal axes and extend to the side walls. Perpendicular to this, webs 8 run between the individual plate-shaped disks 11 in straight lines and connect the plate-shaped disks 11 to one another and to the side walls 1, 2. Parallel to the webs 7, further webs 9, 10 are arranged, which likewise each have two plate-shaped disks 11 to one another and connect to the end walls 3. These additional webs 9 are once on the one side of the central web 7, the other time on the other side, wherever the narrow side walls 15 of the columns 12 face each other, because the narrow side walls 15 of the columns 12 are located close to the edge of the plate-shaped disks 11 and therefore for the set There is little space for goods to be transported at this point. Through these webs 9 and 10, the transported goods receive support. The goods to be transported thus stand on webs 9 or 10 and on the relatively large plate surface parts 17. The goods to be transported therefore stand on the floor at three locations, namely on two plate surface parts 17 and a web 9 or 10.

Die Säulen 12 sind hohl. Sie sind aus vier Keilzylinderflächen aufgebaut, und zwar aus Schmalseitenwänden 15 und Längsseitenwänden 16, die an ihrem oberen Ende ohne Absatz in das Dach 13 übergehen. Dadurch erhalten die Säulen in ihrem Querschnitt die Form einer Mantel, nämlich eines sich zu den Enden zu verbreiternden Körpers.The columns 12 are hollow. They are constructed from four wedge cylinder surfaces, namely from narrow side walls 15 and longitudinal side walls 16, which merge into the roof 13 at their upper end without a shoulder. As a result, the cross-section of the pillars takes the form of a jacket, namely a body that widens towards the ends.

Die Anordnung der Säulen ist eine ganz besondere. Die Säulen stehen sämtlich schräg im Kasten. Die Längsachse 18 ihres Querschnittes verläuft schräg, nämlich unter einem Winkel von 45o, zu den Kastenseitenwänden und zu den gedachten Verbindungslinien zwischen den Säulenlängsachsen. In der einen Reihenrichtung, nämlich parallel zu den Stirnseitenwänden 3, weisen diese Längsachsen 18 der Querschnitte der Säulen 12 die gleiche Richtung auf, sie verlaufen sämtlich parallel zueinander. In der anderen Reihenrichtung, nämlich in der Richtung parallel zu den Längsseitenwänden 1, 2, wechselt die Schrägstellung der Längsachsen 18 von einer Säule zur benachbarten Säule. Gegenüber der Verbindungsgeraden der Längsachsen der Säulen weist die Längsachse des Säulenquerschnitts einmal +45o, das andere Mal -45o auf.The arrangement of the columns is very special. The columns are all slanted in the box. The longitudinal axis 18 of their cross section is inclined, namely at an angle of 45 o to the box side walls and to the imaginary connecting lines between the column longitudinal axes. In one row direction, namely parallel to the end walls 3, these longitudinal axes 18 of the cross sections of the columns 12 have the same direction, they all run parallel to one another. In the other row direction, namely in the direction parallel to the longitudinal side walls 1, 2, the inclined position of the longitudinal axes 18 changes from one column to the adjacent column. Compared to the straight line connecting the longitudinal axes of the columns, the longitudinal axis of the column cross-section is +45 o at one time and -45 o at the other.

Durch diese Anordnung und Stellung der Säulen ist erreicht, daß jedes zylindrische Transportgut von zwei Schmalseitenwänden 15 zweier Säulen 12 und von zwei Längsseitenwänden 16 zweier Säulen 12 gehalten wird. Auf diese Weise ist erreicht, daß die Flascheneinstellplätze zwischen zwei gegenüberliegenden Seitenwänden nicht in einer geraden, sondern in einer versetzten Anordnung befindlich sind.This arrangement and position of the columns ensures that each cylindrical item to be transported is held by two narrow side walls 15 of two columns 12 and by two longitudinal side walls 16 of two columns 12. In this way it is achieved that the bottle placement spaces between two opposite side walls are not in a straight, but in an offset arrangement.

Die Stirnseitenwände 3 sind nicht doppelwandig, sondern nur einwandig hergestellt. Sie weisen auf ihrer Innenseite Hohlsäulen 19 auf, die in einen Teil dem Zwischenraumes zwischen zwei Einstellplätzen 5 hineinragen.The end walls 3 are not double-walled, but only single-walled. They have hollow columns 19 on their inside which protrude into part of the space between two parking spaces 5.

In den Ecken werden die eingestellten Transportgüter einerseits durch die Längsseitenwand 16 einer Säule 12, andererseits durch die Ausbuchtung 20 gehalten.In the corners, the set goods to be transported are held on the one hand by the longitudinal side wall 16 of a column 12, and on the other hand by the bulge 20.

Um dem Boden des Kastens eine höhere Stabilität zu verleihen,kann es zweckmäßig sein, daß in mindestens einer parallel zu einer Seitenwand (2,3) stehenden Reihe von Säulen (12) Innenwände 21,22 angebracht sind, welche sich an der Stelle geringsten Abstandes von einer Säulenecke 23 zur nächsten erstrecken oder sich von einer Säulenecke 23 zur Seitenwand 2,3 erstrecken.In order to give the bottom of the box greater stability, it may be expedient for inner walls 21, 22 to be provided in at least one row of columns (12) which are parallel to a side wall (2, 3) and which are located at the point of the smallest distance extend from one column corner 23 to the next or extend from one column corner 23 to the side wall 2, 3.

Dort, wo wenig Platz zwischen den Flascheneinstellplätzen für Innenwände 21,22 vorhanden ist, ist es zweckmässig, daß die Innenwände 22 in ihrer Mitte schmaler als an ihren in die Säulenecken 23 übergehenden Rändern sind. Das ist vorzugsweise in der sich von Stirnseitenwand zu Stirnseitenwand erstreckenden Reihe der Fall.Where there is little space between the bottle storage spaces for inner walls 21, 22, it is expedient for the inner walls 22 to be narrower in the middle than at their edges which merge into the column corners 23. This is preferably the case in the row extending from the end wall to the end wall.

Im gezeichneten Ausführungsbeispiel der Fig.3 erstreckt sich je eine Reihe von Innenwänden mittig im Kasten parallel zu den Seitenwänden.In the illustrated embodiment of Figure 3, a row of inner walls extends in the middle of the box parallel to the side walls.
