Abstract

With a stackable crate (1), in particular made of plastic, having a bottom, in particular having a bottom grid (5) formed from webs (4), and having side walls (2, 3) and regions (7) which project beyond the upper edge of the side walls in the stacking position of use, a stackable crate is to be provided, which, with comparatively little use of material due to low side walls without detachable parts, can be stacked with spacing in the goods transporting position and with little spacing in the empty transporting position. This is achieved in that the side walls (2 or 3) are provided with opposite, integrally moulded-on, upwardly projecting stacking supports (7), passage openings (10) being provided in the bottom (5) for corresponding stacking supports (7) of an adjacent stackable crate (1'). <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung richtet sich auf einen Stapelkasten, insbesondere aus Kunststoff, mit einem Boden, insbesondere mit einem aus Stegen gebildeten Bodenrost, und mit Seitenwänden sowie mit in der Gebrauchsstapellage die Oberkante der Seitenwände überragenden Bereichen.The invention is directed to a stacking box, in particular made of plastic, with a bottom, in particular with a bottom grate formed from webs, and with side walls and with areas that project above the upper edge of the side walls in the stacked position.

Es gibt eine Reihe von Einsatzgebieten derartiger Transportkästen, bei denen bei bestimmungsgemäßem Gebrauch in der Stapellage ein möglichst großer Abstand zwischen den Böden gestapelter Kästen gewahrt werden soll, z.B. beim Transport von lebenden Pflanzen, wobei die Kästen allerdings zum Befüller zurück transportiert werden. Beim Zurücktransport ist man bestrebt, einen möglichst geringen Platzbedarf zu haben, so daß es bekannt ist, die den oberen Rand der Seitenwände überragenden Elemente als sogenannte Steckecken auszubilden, wobei hier eine Reihe von Lösungen bekannt sind, etwa nach dem DE-U-88 10 525, dem EP-A-0 034 464 oder dem GB-A-2 069 459, um nur einige der bekannten Lösungen hier zu nennen. Nach oben die Seitenwände in den Ecken überragende Elemente zeigt das DE-U-71 10 068 und das DE-U-72 41 484.There are a number of areas of application for such transport boxes, in which, when used as intended, the greatest possible distance between the floors of stacked boxes is to be maintained in the stacking position, for example when transporting living plants, the boxes however being transported back to the filler. When transporting back, the aim is to have the smallest possible space requirement, so that it is known to design the elements projecting beyond the upper edge of the side walls as so-called plug corners, with a number of solutions being known here, for example according to DE-U-88 10 525, EP-A-0 034 464 or GB-A-2 069 459, to name just a few of the known solutions here. DE-U-71 10 068 and DE-U-72 41 484 show elements protruding upwards from the side walls in the corners.

Es ist auch bekannt, steckbare Aufsatzrahmen zu bilden, die in Einzelteile zerlegt im Kasten zum Befüller zurückgefördert werden können, wie dies beispielsweise aus dem GB-U-90 10 460 des Anmelders bekannt ist.It is also known to form plug-in top frames which can be dismantled into individual parts in the box and returned to the filler, as is known, for example, from the applicant's GB-U-90 10 460.

Eine weitere Lösung bei hochwandigen Transportkästen besteht darin, korrespondierende Innenwand- und Außenwandbereiche von zu stapelnden Kästen umschlagsymmetrisch so unterschiedlich zu gestalten, daß in der einen Stapellage ein maximaler Bodenabstand benachbarter Kästen gewährleistet ist, während in der um 180° in der Horizontalebene verschwenkten Stapellage die Kästen tief ineinanderrutschen und damit ihr Transportvolumen verringern. Eine solche Lösung ist beispielsweise aus der EP-C-0 292 787 bekannt.Another solution for high-walled transport boxes is to design the corresponding inner wall and outer wall areas of boxes to be stacked so differently that they can be stacked symmetrically so that a maximum floor clearance of adjacent boxes is guaranteed in one stacking position, while the boxes are pivoted in the stacking position pivoted by 180 ° in the horizontal plane slide deeply into each other and thus reduce their transport volume. Such a solution is known for example from EP-C-0 292 787.

Weisen einige der hier beschriebenen bekannten Lösungen schon Vorteile auf, so haben sie zum Teil den Nachteil, daß z.B. viel Material für die Kastenerzeugung hergestellt werden muß oder daß wenigstens theoretisch verlierbare Teile vorgesehen sind, die einmal am Ort des Befüllens zusätzlich montiert werden müssen und nach Entleerung des Kastens demontiert werden müssen.If some of the known solutions described here already have advantages, some of them have the disadvantage that e.g. A lot of material has to be produced for the box production or that at least theoretically lost parts are provided, which have to be assembled once at the place of filling and have to be dismantled after the box has been emptied.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist die Schaffung einer Lösung, mit der ein stapelbarer Kasten geschaffen wird, der bei vergleichsweise geringem Materialverbrauch durch niedrige Seitenwände ohne verlierbare Teile auf Abstand in der Gütertransportlage und auf geringem Abstand in der Leerguttransportlage stapelbar ist.The object of the invention is to provide a solution with which a stackable box is created which, with comparatively low material consumption, due to low side walls can be stacked at a distance in the goods transport position and at a short distance in the empties transport position without losing parts.

Mit einem Kunststoffkasten der eingangs bezeichneten Art wird diese Aufgabe gemäß der Erfindung dadurch gelöst, daß zwei gegenüberliegende Seitenwände mit gegenüberliegenden, einstückig angeformten, die Seitenwände nach oben überragende Stapelstützen versehen sind, wobei im Boden Durchtrittsöffnungen in wenigstens gleicher Anzahl wie die Stapelstützen vorgesehen sind, in welche korrespondierende Stapelstützen eines benachbarten Stapelkastens in Eingriff bringbar sind.With a plastic box of the type mentioned, this object is achieved according to the invention in that two opposite side walls are provided with opposite, integrally molded, the side walls projecting upward stack supports, with through openings in the bottom are provided in at least the same number as the stack supports, in which corresponding stack supports of an adjacent stack box can be brought into engagement.

Mit der Erfindung wird erreicht, daß Stapelstützen zum einen verlierungsfrei, da einstückig, am Kunststoffkasten angeordnet sind, zum anderen wird eine große Menge an Kunststoffmaterial gegenüber geschlossenen Kästen gespart, zum dritten ist ein einfaches Übereinanderstapeln möglich, hierzu bedarf es nicht einmal des Wendens der Kästen von einer Hochstapellage in eine Niedrigstapellage. Die Kästen werden entweder mit fluchtenden Stapelstützen in Hochlage übereinander gestapelt oder aber paarweise werden die Stapelstützen durch die entsprechenden Ausnehmungen im Boden gesteckt, so daß der darüberliegende Kasten auf den Randbereich des darunterliegenden Kastens absinkt.With the invention it is achieved that stack supports on the one hand without loss, since they are arranged in one piece on the plastic box, on the other hand a large amount of plastic material is saved compared to closed boxes, thirdly simple stacking is possible, this does not even require the boxes to be turned from a high stack position to a low stack position. The boxes are either stacked one on top of the other with aligned stacking supports or in pairs the stacking supports are inserted through the corresponding recesses in the floor, so that the box above it sinks to the edge area of the box below.

In erfindungsgemäßer Ausgestaltung ist vorgesehen, daß die Stapelstützen als integraler Bestandteil gegenüberliegender Seitenwände ausgebildet sind, wobei sie die Außenkonturen der jeweiligen Seitenwand nicht überragen.In an embodiment according to the invention it is provided that the stack supports are formed as an integral part of opposite side walls, whereby they do not protrude beyond the outer contours of the respective side wall.

Zweckmäßig sind dabei die Durchtrittsöffnungen der Stapelstützen unmittelbar benachbart im Boden des Stapelkastens angeordnet, um ein vergleichsweise dichtes Packen der Kästen möglich zu machen, ohne daß ein zu großer Grundflächenbedarf an Leerguttransport notwendig ist.The through openings of the stack supports are expediently arranged directly adjacent in the bottom of the stacking box in order to make it possible to pack the boxes in a comparatively tight manner, without the need for an excessively large space requirement for empties transport.

Bei einer in der Praxis am häufigsten vorkommenden rechteckigen Kontur eines Stapelkastens sieht die Erfindung vor, daß die Stapelstützen in der Nähe der Kastenecken an den kürzeren Seitenwänden ausgebildet sind mit den im Boden zugeordneten Durchtrittsöffnungen. Grundsätzlich könnten die Stapelstützen auch im Eckbereich an den längeren Seitenwänden vorgesehen sein, die Anordnung an den kürzeren Seitenwänden kann aber zu einer höheren Festigkeit führen.In the case of a rectangular contour of a stacking box that occurs most frequently in practice, the invention provides that the stacking supports are formed in the vicinity of the box corners on the shorter side walls with the passage openings assigned in the floor. In principle, the stack supports could also be provided in the corner area on the longer side walls, but the arrangement on the shorter side walls can lead to greater strength.

Je nach Länge der Stapelstützen kann es zweckmäßig sein, wenigstens zwei Durchtrittsöffnungen zum Durchtritt der Stapelstützen zweier bereits gestapelter Stapelkästen im Boden vorzusehen, womit erreichbar ist, daß die Stapelstützen etwa die doppelte bis dreifache Länge der üblichen Kastenwandhöhe einnehmen können, da sie dann beispielsweise bei drei übereinandergestapelten Kästen die Kontur des oberen Kastenrandes des letzten Stapelkastens noch nicht überragen.Depending on the length of the stacking supports, it may be appropriate to provide at least two through openings for the passage of the stacking supports of two stacking boxes that have already been stacked in the floor, with the result that the stacking supports can take up about twice to three times the length of the usual box wall height, since then, for example If there are three boxes stacked on top of each other, do not protrude the contour of the top edge of the last box.

Um eine Vielzahl von Kästen übereinanderstapeln zu können und dabei gleichzeitig einen vergleichsweise festen Stapelverband zu bilden, sieht die Erfindung in weiterer Ausgestaltung auch vor, daß die Durchtrittsöffnungen mit Führungsnocken zur Anlage an Außenflächen durchtretende Stapelstützen versehen sind, womit es zu einem vergleichsweise spielfreien Stapeln kommt.In order to be able to stack a plurality of boxes on top of one another and at the same time form a comparatively firm stacking arrangement, the invention also provides in a further embodiment that the passage openings are provided with guide cams for bearing supports which pass through on outer surfaces, which results in a comparatively play-free stacking.

Die Erfindung ist nachstehend anhand der Zeichnung beispielsweise näher erläutert. Diese zeigt in

Fig. 1
eine Seitenansicht zweier Kästen in Hochstapellage,
Fig. 2
eine Teilaufsicht auf einen Stapelkasten sowie in
Fig. 3
die Schnittzeichnung eines Viererverbandes in Transportlage gestapelter Kästen.
The invention is explained below with reference to the drawing, for example. This shows in
Fig. 1
a side view of two boxes in high stack position,
Fig. 2
a partial supervision of a stacking box as well as in
Fig. 3
the sectional drawing of a group of four in the transport position of stacked boxes.

In Fig. 1 sind zwei übereinandergestapelte, in der linken Figurenseite teilweise geschnittene Stapelkästen, allgemein mit 1 bzw. 1' bezeichnet, übereinandergestapelt, wobei jeder Stapelkasten aus zwei Längsseitenwänden 2 und zwei Querseitenwänden 3 und einem im dargestellten Beispiel mittels Stegen 4 gebildeten Bodenrost 5 gebildet sind. An den kürzeren Seiten 3 sind im dargestellten Beispiel in der Nähe der mit 6 bezeichneten Kastenecken einstückig Stapelstützen 7 angeformt, die einen oberen Rastbereich 8 aufweisen, die in entsprechend geformten Aufnahmen 9, die lediglich gestrichelt angedeutet sind, im darüber liegenden Kasten eingreifen können. Wie sich insbesondere auch aus Fig. 2 ergibt, sind im Bodenrost 5 den Stapelstützen 7 unmittelbar zugeordnet zwei nebeneinanderliegende Durchtrittsöffnungen 10 und 10a angeordnet mit Führungsnocken 11, die sich in der Tiefstapellage (Fig. 3) seitlich an die Außenfläche der Stapelstützen 7 anlegen können.In Fig. 1, two stacked boxes, generally designated 1 and 1 ', one on top of the other, partially cut in the left side of the figure, are stacked one above the other, each stacking box consisting of two longitudinal side walls 2 and two Transverse side walls 3 and a floor grid 5 formed in the example shown by means of webs 4 are formed. On the shorter sides 3, stack supports 7 are integrally formed in the example shown near the box corners labeled 6, which have an upper latching area 8, which can engage in correspondingly shaped receptacles 9, which are only indicated by dashed lines, in the box above them. As can also be seen in particular from FIG. 2, the stacking supports 7 are directly assigned to two adjacent through openings 10 and 10a in the floor grating 5 with guide cams 11 which, in the deep stacking position (FIG. 3), can lay laterally against the outer surface of the stacking supports 7.

Wie sich insbesondere aus Fig. 3 ergibt, können eine Vielzahl von Kästen, dort allgemein mit 1a bis 1d bezeichnet, übereinandergestapelt werden, wobei jeweils ein Teil der Stapelstützen 7 die im Boden des benachbarten Kastens vorgesehenen Durchtrittsöffnungen 10 bzw. 10a durchsetzt, die gegenüberliegende Stapelstütze kann dabei den unmittelbar darüber gestapelten Kasten außen umgreifen und über eine entsprechende Durchtrittsöffnung des Kastens eingreifen.As can be seen in particular from FIG. 3, a multiplicity of boxes, generally designated 1a to 1d, can be stacked on top of one another, a portion of the stacking supports 7 passing through the passage openings 10 and 10a provided in the bottom of the adjacent box, the opposite stacking support can grip the box stacked directly above it outside and engage through a corresponding opening in the box.

Natürlich ist das beschriebene Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung noch in vielfacher Hinsicht abzuändern, ohne den Grundgedanken zu verlassen. So ist die Erfindung insbesondere nicht auf die dargestellte Querschnittsform der Stapelstützen 7 beschränkt, diese können auch querschnittlich rechteckig oder beispielsweise rund oder vieleckig gestaltet sein mit entsprechend gestalteten Öffnungen 10 im Bodenrost 5 u. dgl. mehr.Of course, the described embodiment of the invention can be modified in many ways without departing from the basic idea. The invention is particularly so not limited to the illustrated cross-sectional shape of the stack supports 7, these can also be designed with a rectangular cross-section or, for example, round or polygonal with appropriately designed openings 10 in the base grate 5 and. Like. more.
