Definitions
- Transport container designed as a lattice box
- the invention relates to a transport box designed as a lattice box.
- Transport boxes of the above type designed as lattice boxes are known from DE 42 30 117 AI. They are used for transport and storage, in particular also for stacking a wide variety of goods. In particular, they are also used as so-called lattice box exchange pallets in rail traffic, where they ensure that the goods to be shipped do not have to be packed in special boxes and that the goods arriving at the recipient do not need to be unpacked or relocated immediately. With such lattice box exchange pallets, there is also no need to return empties. Due to the existing container lid, which must be locked together with the locking bracket captivating the two front wall flaps of the container, the goods stored in such lattice boxes can be adequately secured against unauthorized theft or exchange for goods of poorer quality. As is known, the flap wall parts are tied up by the interaction of insertion pins arranged at the lower end of the locking bracket, with which the locking bracket ends at the bottom in the container bottom.
- the known transport container also has two locking bars which are mounted in longitudinally displaceable directions in opposite directions on its container cover and which in their extended position engage with their outer ends under the upper edge of the side wall of the container and in this extended position over their inner side-by-side angled ends must be locked together with the locking bracket, for example by means of a padlock to be inserted through corresponding through openings in the angled locking bar ends and in the upper U-shaped end of the locking bracket.
- the locking bracket is connected to the container lid at the top only in this closed position. If the padlock is removed to open the container, the connection between the container lid and the locking bracket is omitted.
- the invention is therefore based on the object of improving the lattice box of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that it is easier to operate, in particular in terms of its locking system having the locking bracket, and is more cost-effective in terms of construction, while maintaining the tried-and-tested burglar resistance and stability ⁇ is to be delivered.
- the first solution principle provides according to claim 1 to provide an upper-end bearing while maintaining the lower end of the locking bracket, the upper bearing firmly connecting the locking bracket to the lid of the lattice box, while the lower end is primarily used only for locking.
- the bottom-mounted mounting therefore no longer serves a hinge-like function but merely serves as a locking bar for theft protection.
- the other solution principle of the invention is based on the consideration that the lower-end bearing can also be dispensed with since it no longer performs a hinge function and that instead the locking bracket is connected at the top.
- the lower-end storage can consequently be omitted and the locking bracket, which can be removed relative to the foldable front wall of the container, engages like a claw over the front wall of the container.
- the locking bracket is designed as a clip-on holding claw which is open at the bottom and which can be plugged over the front wall of the container in the manner of a locking sword.
- the container lid and locking bracket can be stored much more securely and, in particular, can also be handled much more easily for their respective attachment to the lattice box or for the respective removal thereof.
- This also contributes to the fact that, when the container lid is removed, the locking bracket can be folded flat under its underside and inserted with one of its lower hinge pins into a locking eyelet located on the underside of the rear edge of the container lid at a corresponding point.
- the locking bracket can be folded flat under its underside and inserted with one of its lower hinge pins into a locking eyelet located on the underside of the rear edge of the container lid at a corresponding point.
- the hinge joint consists of tubular hinge bearings attached to the front edge of the container lid and hinge pins that are slidably mounted therein and are present at the upper end of the locking bracket, wherein a locking flap that can be folded up and down about a horizontal axis can be mounted on the front edge of the container lid in its folded position covers the articulation point of the locking bracket and locks the latter and can be locked together with it.
- a central transverse slot is advantageously present in the locking flap, which in the folded-down position of the locking flap and, when the locking bars are extended, they grip over their angled ends, which lie next to one another, and thereby lock the locking bars in their extended position.
- there may also be an additional outer slot in the locking flap which in the folded-down position of the Locking flap and, when the associated locking bar is retracted, engages over its inner angled end and thereby also allows the locking bar to be locked in its retracted position. This also makes it easier to handle the container lid in the removed state, because in this way the locking bars that protrude laterally beyond the edge of the container lid are protected against damage.
- the locking flap At the front of the locking flap there can be two angled flap projections with which, in its folded-down position, it grips around the locking bracket in its central position of use and thereby allows it to be locked.
- locking flap protruding locking pins can be provided on the locking bars near their angled inner ends, which overlap the locking bracket on both sides and it in the extended Lock the position of the locking bars in its middle position of use.
- the locking sword in any case also extends over the lower folding wall part of the lattice box to such an extent that its forward folding out is largely prevented.
- the locking sword can have a holding claw formed on its upper end, which extends over the upper edge of the upper folding wall part and engages behind it more than half.
- the latter in conjunction with the upper part of the folding wall, ensures that the locking sword at its lower end cannot be swung forward from the lower part of the folding wall.
- several holding claws can also be attached to the back of the locking sword, which reach through the corresponding mesh meshes of the upper and / or lower folding wall part, which are arranged in a row one below the other. In these cases, the holding claws can be kept much shorter due to their greater distance from the locking sword connection point to the container lid.
- the locking sword is preferably attached to the front edge of the container lid in a hinge-like manner, that is to say it is in constant articulated connection with the container lid in accordance with the first solution principle according to this invention, and therefore cannot be installed either.
- the locking sword In the removal state, the locking sword can be folded against the back of the container lid and there through on the underside corresponding parentheses or the like. can also be locked.
- the breechbar at its upper end with a transverse support arm and to lock it by the container lid which extends over it in the breech position and is to be locked.
- a receiving pocket for the upper support arm of the locking sword is advantageously provided on the front of the container lid.
- locking bars which are mounted so as to be displaceable in the longitudinal direction in opposite directions and which, in their extended position, engage with their outer ends under the upper edges of the side walls of the container and then, via their inner ends lying next to one another, open together with the locking sword are closed.
- These locking bars with their inner, upwardly angled ends, can penetrate longitudinal slots in the center of the container lid and have pass-through holes for the shackle of a padlock or a sealing wire.
- the container lid can also be provided on its front side with retaining clips which overlap the top and front sides of the upper folding wall part and on the rear side with a retaining clip flap which is attached in the manner of a hinge and which, in its folded-down position, is the top edge the container rear wall reaches over and behind and is to be locked.
- the locking sword can be hinged to the front of the container lid or simply overlapped by the container lid in its closed position and thus locked.

- the lattice box shown is provided in a conventional manner with a closed base 1 and fixed side lattice walls 2 fixed thereon and with a fixed rear wall 103.
- the front wall 107 consists of two folding wall parts 2 ', 2''which can be folded out forward about a central common horizontal axis 3.
- the front wall 107 of the lattice box consists of two about the common central horizontal axis 3, from the fold-out folding wall parts, namely the upper folding wall part 2 ' and the lower folding wall part 2''.
- the lattice box In order to protect the goods to be stored and transported in such lattice boxes from unauthorized access by third parties, the lattice box must be closed at the top and on the front wall.
- the container lid 7 and the locking bracket 8 to be placed centrally on the front wall of the container and its folding wall parts 2 ', 2' 'are used in all cases.
- the folding wall parts are tied by means of the locking bracket 8 by the locking bracket 8 folding wall parts 2'. , 2 '' bridged or spanned so far that the opening movement is prevented.
- the locking bracket 8 is fixed here with its upper end to the cover 7 and with its lower end to the bottom 1 of the lattice box (FIG. 1-8) or the locking bracket 8 forms a locking sword, which in the manner of a Attach the claw 117 from above to the front wall of the mesh box (see Fig. 9-20).
- the container cover 7, which preferably also consists of a scrim or mesh, but possibly also of sheet metal, is provided with projecting edges on the edge, the upper edge of the fixed standing side walls 2 partially overlapping and underlapping
- One of the holding tabs 9 arranged on the rear edge of the container lid 7 can, as shown in FIG. 5, be provided on the underside with a locking eyelet 11 in a ring-shaped or also quadrant-profiled form, in order to then hold the container lid 7 in the removal position to be able to receive the locking bracket 8 (design Fig. 1-8) which is to be folded flat on its underside with one of its insertion pins 12 provided at the bottom, in order in this way to lock the locking bracket 8 in this folding position under the cover 7.
- two locking rods 13, 14, which are mounted in opposite directions and are longitudinally displaceable, are adjustably guided in corresponding bearing eyes 15.
- these locking bars 13 can engage with their outer ends 13 ', 14' under the upper edge of the side wall 2 '' 'of the container, in the immediate vicinity of the corners of the container, so that the container lid 7 is protected against being pulled out from the front as well Taking off is secured.
- the inner ends 13 ′′ or 14 ′′ of the locking bars are angled upward and lie directly next to one another in the extended position of the locking bars 13, 14.
- the locking bracket 8 is attached to the front edge of the container lid 7 like a sliding joint.
- two hinge bearings serving as hinge joints in the form of the bearing tubes 16 are fitted, into which the locking bracket 8 projects with the correspondingly long hinge pins 17 attached to its upper end.
- These hinge pins 17, like the lower insertion pins 12 attached to the lower end of the locking bracket 8, ensure that the locking bracket 8 is guided or supported at its two ends in the manner of a sliding joint, only one difference being that the locking locking bracket 8 is in constant articulated connection with the container lid 7 via the corresponding longer longer upper hinge pins 17, while the locking bracket 8 at its lower end with its lower insertion pins 12 also from the corresponding hinge tubes
- the locking bracket 8 is displaced parallel to itself in one of its lateral end positions and then twisted slightly about its longitudinal axis, so that the insert pin pulled out of the corresponding hinge bearing is then laterally displaced relative to the hinge tube, so that the inserting pins serving as latches can be completely moved out of the other hinge bearing 6 by parallel displacement with its other insertion pin 12 to the opposite side.
- a locking flap 19 mounted on the front edge of the container lid 7 in the bearing eyes 18 is used in FIGS. 1 to 6, which in its folded-down position serves as the articulation point of the Locking bracket 8 on the lid
- the central transverse slot 20 serves to receive the ends 13, ′′, 14 ′′ which are immediately adjacent when the locking rods 13, 14 are extended, whereas the outer transverse slots 20 ′ each have the angled end 13 in the retracted position of the associated locking bar '' or 14 '' and thereby lock the locking bar in its retracted position allow.
- Locking bars as shown in FIG. 3, have through holes 21 for the shackle of a padlock to be pushed through in their juxtaposition, and possibly also a sealing wire.
- a document pocket or also a document drawer 22 can be provided at the upper end of the locking bracket 8, the upper insertion opening of which in the folded position of the locking flap 19 is provided by a cover projection 19 '' which is also present on the latter. can be covered. If such a document pocket or drawer 22, as shown in FIG. 4, is arranged on the container lid 7, its access end in the folded-down position of the locking flap 19 can also be easily by a cover projection 19 '' on the side of it be covered.
- the fields 23 shown in a similar manner in FIG. 1 are such writing boards which are conventionally present on the front wall side of such grid box exchange pallets.
- the edge 7 ' is provided with bevels 7' 'on both sides.
- the lid 7 with its rear retaining tabs 9 is first pushed under the rear upper edge of the container and with its lateral retaining tabs 10 on the sidewalls edge 2 '''on. Then the locking bracket 8 on the container lid 7 is inserted with one of its lower insertion pins 12 into the corresponding lower hinge tube 6 on the container bottom 1, for which purpose a slight tilting or twisting of the bracket 8 about its longitudinal axis is necessary.
- the length of the bracket 8 as well as the movement between its lower insertion pin 12 and the lower hinge bearings 6 allow this without further ado.
- the locking bracket 8 If, in the aforementioned position, the locking bracket 8 is shifted so far that its other lower hinge pin end has found a small distance from the other hinge bearing 6, then by turning back and pushing the locking bracket 8, the aforementioned other insertion pin 12 can also be directly in the associated hinge bearing 6 can be inserted into the container bottom 1. In a corresponding reverse order, the locking bracket 8 with its lower insertion pin 12 can also be removed from the lower hinge bearings 6.
- two locking brackets 8 are provided on the container lid 7 instead of a locking bracket, which in this case are provided with lower insertion pins 12 and upper hinge pins 17 which are attached to them only on one side in opposite directions.
- corresponding tubular tube tubes 16 are in turn attached to the front edge of the cover 7, while the lower insertion pins 12 of the two locking brackets 8 are still axially displaceably mounted in the tubular hinge tubes 6 provided at the bottom of the lattice box are.

- the inner ends 13 ′′, 14 ′′ of the locking bars 13, 14 pass through correspondingly long longitudinal slots 26 and 27 located in the front edge of the container lid 7.
- the locking bars 13, 14 In the illustrated extended position of the locking bars 13, 14, their inner angled portions lie Ends 13 ′′ or 14 ′′ again directly next to one another, so that the through-holes 21 here also allow the bus gel of a padlock or a sealing wire can be passed through, in order in this way to be able to lock both the locking bars 13, 14 and the locking bracket 8 in their use or locking position on the transport container.
- the locking bracket 8 is provided here as well as in the previously described and illustrated exemplary embodiments with hinge pins 17 provided at its upper end, by means of which it is mounted in the manner of a sliding joint in bearing tubes 16 attached to the underside of the cover.
- Fig. 9-20 show:
- the lid 7 is used to close the lattice box, and the closure sword 8 connected to it via its upper end.
- the lid 7 has holding means in the form of retaining tabs 9, 10 formed on the edges of the container lid on the narrow sides and on the rear side. These retaining tabs are each more than half as long as the associated container lid edges.
- the rear retaining tab 9 engages under the upper rear edge 3 'of the container rear wall 103, while the two grip lateral support tabs 9 over the upper edges 2 '' 'of the side walls 2 or rest on them.
- the container lid 7 is provided on its front side 8 ′′ ′′ with two locking rods 13, 14 mounted in opposite directions that can be displaced longitudinally in bearing eyes 15 attached to the underside of the lid.
- these In their extended position, these reach with their outer ends, 13 ', 14' under the upper container side wall edges 2 ''', namely under their front corners.
- the inner ends 13 ′′ or 14 ′′ of the locking bars 13, 14 are angled upward and thus penetrate the longitudinal slots 113, 113 ′ present in the center of the container lid 8 ′′ ′′, which are mutually offset accordingly.
- their angled ends 13 ′′ and 14 ′′ are close together. the.
- a fork-like retaining clip 114 can be welded to one locking bar end 13 ′′, which in the illustrated extended position of the two locking bars 13, 14 comprises the other angled locking bar end 14 ′′.
- the closure sword 8 which overlaps the front folding wall parts 2 ', 2' 'is provided at its upper end with a bearing eye 9', by means of which it is pivotably mounted on the bearing bracket 116 fixedly attached to the underside of the container lid edge 8 '' 'and above in correspondingly hinged shape is firmly connected to the container lid 7.
- a bearing eye 9' fixedly attached to the underside of the container lid edge 8 '' 'and above in correspondingly hinged shape is firmly connected to the container lid 7.
- the locking sword 8 thus obtained can be attached from above to the front wall 107 of the container and at the same time with its holding claw 117 in fork-like engagement with the front wall 107 of the container and its upper folding wall part 2 '' brought. Due to the tight overlapping of the locking sword with its rear holding claw 117 over the upper folding wall part 2 ', the locking sword 8 fixedly hinged to the container lid 7 is secured against forward pivoting, so that the locking sword 8 with its lower part 9' ' also simultaneously the lower Folding wall part 2 '' securely locked in its closed position.
- the closure sword 8 shown in FIG. 13 has a transversely extending support arm 9a 'at its upper end instead of an articulation eye, by means of which it can be locked in its inserted position by the container cover 7 to be locked.
- Locking sword 8 engages and thereby allows it to be locked securely, for which purpose the locking bar ends, as shown in FIG. 14, are of the same nature as in the case of the exemplary embodiment described above.
- the closure sword 8 shown in FIGS. 15 and 16 differs from the ones described above in that it has several, but comparatively short holding claws 117b on its rear side, by the corresponding mesh meshes 119 of the upper and lower ones arranged in a row one below the other Fold the folding wall part 2 'or 2' 'and reach behind their correspondingly located wire mesh area. Adequate locking of the two folding wall parts 2 ′, 2 ′′ can also be achieved in this way. It goes without saying that, even in this case, the locking sword 8 instead of an upper bearing eye 9 'can be provided with a transverse support arm 9a' and consequently could only be held by the container lid 7 by resting it in the locked position.
- the container lid 7 is provided on its front side 8 ′′ ′′ with two retaining clips 120 that overlap the upper edge 118 of the upper folding wall part 2 ′ on the top and front, while on its rear side a hinge-joint-mounted retaining clip flap 121 is provided, which in its folded-down position shown in FIG. 20 engages over and behind the upper edge 3 'of the container rear wall 103.
