Abstract

The container contains at least one enclosed chamber (7) separated from the useful load and containing pourable, free-flowing or gaseous extinguisher material for reducing the fire risk tendency of the mounting or transporter structure. The at least one chamber is positioned in the lid and or bottom (1) of the container and is formed by a ridged (6) wall and or bottom element, and a cover plate (5) fixed to the ridges. The extinguisher material is contained in a tightly sealed bag and is in the form of water, powder and or foaming agent.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein brandgeschütztes Lager- und/oder Transportgebilde aus Kunststoff gemäss dem Oberbegriff des unabhängigen Patentanspruchs.The invention relates to a fire-protected storage and / or transport structure made of plastic according to the preamble of the independent claim.

Lager- bzw. Transportgebilde dieser Art sind in der Regel als Behälter, Paletten, Tablare, Gebinde bzw. Gebindeteile, Kunststoffgehäuse oder dergleichen ausgeführt.Storage or transport structures of this type are generally designed as containers, pallets, trays, containers or parts of containers, plastic housings or the like.

Da Kunststoff einen sehr hohen Brennwert hat, der etwa jenem von Heizöl entspricht, müssen in Lagersystemen, die solche Kunststoffgebilde verwenden, aufwendige Brandschutzmassnahmen vorgesehen sein, z.B. in Form von Sprinkleranlagen. Zum Vermindern der Brandgefahr kann auch die Brennbarkeit des Kunststoffs durch chemische Additive reduziert werden.Since plastic has a very high calorific value, which corresponds approximately to that of heating oil, complex fire protection measures must be provided in storage systems that use such plastic structures, e.g. in the form of sprinkler systems. To reduce the risk of fire, the flammability of the plastic can also be reduced by chemical additives.

Bei einem Brand lässt sich so zwar die Brandgeschwindigkeit heruntersetzen, bei der Verbrennung oder Entsorgung der mit Additiven versehenen Kunststoffe entstehen jedoch giftige Dämpfe oder Abfälle. Aus diesem Grunde haben sich Additive bei Lager- und Transportgebilden nicht durchgesetzt.In the event of a fire, the rate of fire can be reduced, but the combustion or disposal of the plastics containing additives creates toxic fumes or waste. For this reason, additives have not become established in storage and transport structures.

Die Erfindung beruht auf der Aufgabe, ein Lager- bzw. Transportgebilde der eingangs genannten Art bereitzustellen, das eine reduzierte Brandanfälligkeit aufweist aber die Nachteile möglichst vermeidet, die bei der Anwendung bekannter chemischer Brandschutz-Additive im Kunststoff entstehen.The invention is based on the object of providing a storage or transport structure of the type mentioned at the outset which has reduced susceptibility to fire but avoids as far as possible the disadvantages which arise in the use of known chemical fire protection additives in plastic.

Diese Aufgabe wird vom Gegenstand des ersten Patentanspruchs gelöst.This object is solved by the subject matter of the first claim.

Indem im erfindungsgemässen Lager- bzw. Transportgebilde mindestens eine separate Kammer für das Löschmedium vorgesehen ist, können verschiedenste Löschmedien, wie z.B. Wasser, Sand, Pulver und dergleichen verwendet werden, die bei der Verbrennung wenige oder keine unerwünschten Dämpfe abgeben. Auch die Entsorgung und das Recycling der Gebilde gestaltet sich einfacher, da Löschmedium und Kunststoff einfach trennbar sind. Bei einem Brand wird die Kammer durch Hitze oder Feuer geöffnet und das Löschmedium freigesetzt. Dabei kann das Löschmedium seine Wirkung am Brandherd selbst entfalten, während zum Beispiel das Wasser einer Sprinkleranlage nicht alle Orte eines Lagers erreicht.By providing at least one separate chamber for the extinguishing medium in the storage or transport structure according to the invention, a wide variety of extinguishing media such as water, sand, powder and the like can be used can be used which emit little or no undesirable vapors during combustion. The disposal and recycling of the structures is also easier, since the extinguishing medium and plastic are easy to separate. In the event of a fire, the chamber is opened by heat or fire and the extinguishing medium is released. The extinguishing medium can develop its effect at the source of the fire itself, while, for example, the water in a sprinkler system does not reach all locations in a warehouse.

Vorzugsweise wird als Löschmedium ein Stoff verwendet, der eine gute Wärmeleitfähigkeit und/oder eine hohe spezifische Wärmekapazität hat, wie z.B. Wasser. Ein solches Medium verzögert eine Erwärmung des Kunststoffs und der Flammpunkt wird später erreicht.A substance which has good thermal conductivity and / or a high specific thermal capacity, such as e.g. Water. Such a medium delays heating of the plastic and the flash point is reached later.

In einer bevorzugten Ausführung der Erfindung ist das Lager- bzw. Transportgebilde als Behälter ausgeformt, wobei vorzugsweise in dessen Boden, gegebenenfalls auch in dessen Wänden, mindestens eine Kammer für das Löschmedium angeordnet ist. Sind solche Behälter zum Beispiel übereinander angeordnet, so kann sich im Brandfall das Löschmedium eines oberen Behälters in den nächst unteren ergiessen und dort lokal seine Wirkung entfalten. Die Kammern können dem Behälter zusätzliche Stabilität verleihen, so dass spezielle Versteifungsrippen entfallen bzw. in die Kammern integriert werden können. Beispielsweise kann die mindestens eine Kammer durch ein Wandstück, senkrecht zum Wandstück stehende Rippen und eine auf den Rippen befestigte Abdeckplatte gebildet werden.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the storage or transport structure is shaped as a container, preferably at least one chamber for the extinguishing medium being arranged in the bottom thereof, and optionally also in the walls thereof. If such containers are arranged one above the other, in the event of a fire, the extinguishing medium of an upper container can pour into the next lower container and have its local effect there. The chambers can give the container additional stability, so that special stiffening ribs are eliminated or can be integrated into the chambers. For example, the at least one chamber can be formed by a wall piece, ribs perpendicular to the wall piece and a cover plate attached to the ribs.

Eine weitere bevorzugte Ausführung der Erfindung ist eine Palette, in deren Innenraum das Löschmittel angeordnet ist. Solche Paletten haben ein relativ grosses Volumen, das in dieser Weise effizient genutzt werden kann.Another preferred embodiment of the invention is a pallet, in the interior of which the extinguishing agent is arranged. Such pallets have a relatively large volume, which can be used efficiently in this way.

Das Löschmedium kann in einem Beutel angeordnet sein. Der Beutel kann die Kammer bilden oder in die eigentliche Kammer eingebracht sein. Dadurch wird die Gefahr eines Leckes verringert.The extinguishing medium can be arranged in a bag. The bag can form the chamber or can be introduced into the actual chamber. This reduces the risk of a leak.

Als besonders geeignetes Löschmedium hat sich Wasser herausgestellt, da dieses chemisch gut verträglich und nicht toxisch ist und gleichzeitig eine grosse Wärmekapazität und Verdampfungswärme aufweist.Water has proven to be a particularly suitable extinguishing medium since it is chemically well tolerated and non-toxic and at the same time has a large heat capacity and heat of vaporization.

Andere Herstellungsverfahren sind denkbar.The container according to FIG. 1 has a bottom 1 and side walls 2. In the figure, only a part of the bottom and a side wall is clearly shown, the other parts are indicated schematically. The container shown here is rectangular when viewed from above, but can also have a different shape. It consists essentially of plastic and is manufactured using the injection molding process. Other manufacturing processes are conceivable.

Der Boden 1 und die Seitenwände 2 bilden ein Behälterinneres 3 zur Aufnahme der Nutzlast. Behälter dieser Art werden zum Beispiel als Lagerbehälter in Lagerhäusern eingesetzt.The bottom 1 and the side walls 2 form a container interior 3 for receiving the payload. Containers of this type are used, for example, as storage containers in warehouses.

Der Boden 1 ist doppelwandig ausgeführt und weist eine Bodenwand 4 und eine untere Deckplatte 5 auf. Die Deckplatte 5 ist an Rippen 6 befestigt, die in der Bodenwand 4 ausgeformt sind. Zwischen der Bodenwand 4, der Deckplatte 5 und den Rippen 6 werden mehrere, geschlossene, wasserdichte Kammern 7 gebildet. In diesen Kammern befindet sich Wasser 8, das in einem Brandfall als Löschmedium wirkt.The bottom 1 is double-walled and has a bottom wall 4 and a lower cover plate 5. The cover plate 5 is attached to ribs 6 which are formed in the bottom wall 4. A plurality of closed, watertight chambers 7 are formed between the bottom wall 4, the cover plate 5 and the ribs 6. In these chambers there is water 8, which acts as an extinguishing medium in the event of a fire.

Die Wirkung des Wassers 8 basiert auf verschiedenen Effekten. Einerseits verzögert es aufgrund seiner Wärmekapazität die Erwärmung des Bodens. Sobald die Kammern 7 undicht werden, tritt es aus und fliesst nach unten, z.B. in einen unteren, bereits in Flammen stehenden Behälter, wo es einen gezielten Löscheffekt entwickelt. Schliesslich benötigt die Verdampfung des Wassers Wärmeenergie, was die Brandgeschwindigkeit zusätzlich reduziert oder sogar die Temperatur des Kunststoffes unter den Flammpunkt senkt.The effect of the water 8 is based on various effects. On the one hand, it delays the warming of the soil due to its heat capacity. As soon as the chambers 7 leak, it emerges and flows downwards, e.g. in a lower, already on fire container, where it develops a targeted extinguishing effect. Finally, the evaporation of the water requires thermal energy, which further reduces the rate of fire or even lowers the temperature of the plastic below the flash point.

Die Anordnung des Wassers 8 im Boden 1 hat den Vorteil, dass es eine Barriere quer zur im wesentlichen vertikal fortschreitenden Brandfront bildet.The arrangement of the water 8 in the bottom 1 has the advantage that it forms a barrier across the essentially vertically progressing fire front.

Zur Herstellung des Behälters gemäss Fig. 1 gibt es verschiedene Möglichkeiten. In einem bevorzugten Verfahren wird der Behälter zunächst ohne die untere Deckplatte 5 geformt. Dann wird er mit dem Boden nach oben hingestellt, und die Bereiche zwischen den Rippen 6 werden mit Wasser gefüllt. Danach wird die Deckplatte 5 mit den Rippen 6 verschweisst, um das Wasser einzuschliessen.There are various possibilities for producing the container according to FIG. 1. In a preferred method, the container is first molded without the lower cover plate 5. Then it is placed upside down and the areas between the ribs 6 are filled with water. The cover plate 5 is then welded to the ribs 6 in order to enclose the water.

Das Wasser 8 kann auch in Beuteln 10 eingeschweisst werden, wie dies in Fig. 2 dargestellt ist. Diese Beutel werden in den Boden eingelegt und die Deckplatte 5 wird sodann ebenfalls mit den Rippen 6 verschweisst. In diesem Falle brauchen die Kammern 7 nicht wasserdicht zu sein, bzw. die eigentlichen Kammern für das Wasser werden von den Beuteln 10 gebildet.The water 8 can also be sealed in bags 10, as shown in FIG. 2. These bags are placed in the bottom and the cover plate 5 is then also welded to the ribs 6. In this case, the chambers 7 need not be watertight, or the actual chambers for the water are formed by the bags 10.

In den Ausführungen nach Fig. 1 und 2 bilden die Rippen 6 und auch die Deckplatte 5 nicht nur die Kammern 7, sondern gleichzeitig eine erwünschte Verstärkung des Bodenbereichs. Da auch bei konventionellen Behältern zur Aufnahme grösserer Lasten der Boden mit Verstärkungsrippen versehen werden muss, bewirkt die zusätzliche Anordnung des Löschmediums im Boden keinen oder nur einen geringen Raumverlust.1 and 2, the ribs 6 and also the cover plate 5 form not only the chambers 7, but at the same time a desired reinforcement of the base area. Since the base must also be provided with reinforcing ribs for conventional containers to accommodate larger loads, the additional arrangement of the extinguishing medium in the base causes little or no loss of space.

Zusätzlich oder alternativ zur Anordnung nach Fig. 1 und 2 können auch in den Wänden 2 des Behälters Kammern mit Wasser ausgeformt werden. Ein Beispiel eines entsprechenden Behälters wird in Fig. 3 offenbart. Hier ist im oberen Rand des Behälters eine Kammer 7' ausgebildet, in welche das Wasser 8 eingefüllt ist, entweder direkt oder in einem Beutel. Auch dieser Behälter kann ähnlich wie jener gemäss Fig. 1 und 2 hergestellt werden. Es ist jedoch auch möglich, im Spritzprozess das Wasser mit hohem Druck direkt in den verdickten Randbereich (z.B. in der Nachdruckphase) einzudrücken - auf diese Weise können Lager- bzw. Transportgebilde ohne doppelten Boden und ohne konstruktionsbedingte Hohlräume einfach mit Löschmedium versehen werden.In addition or as an alternative to the arrangement according to FIGS. 1 and 2, chambers can also be formed with water in the walls 2 of the container. An example of a corresponding container is disclosed in FIG. 3. Here, a chamber 7 'is formed in the upper edge of the container, into which the water 8 is filled, either directly or in a bag. This container can also be produced similar to that according to FIGS. 1 and 2. However, it is also possible to press the water directly into the thickened edge area (e.g. in the holding pressure phase) with high pressure - in this way, storage or transport structures can be easily provided with extinguishing medium without a double floor and without design-related cavities.

Eine weitere Anordnungsmöglichkeit des Löschmediums ist der Deckel eines Behälters. Auch dieser steht quer zur primären Bewegungsrichtung der Brandfront und kann somit die Brandgeschwindigkeit in sehr effizienter Weise reduzieren.Another possibility of arranging the extinguishing medium is the lid of a container. This too is perpendicular to the primary direction of movement of the fire front and can therefore reduce the fire speed in a very efficient manner.

Figur 4 zeigt eine weitere Ausführung der Erfindung, diesmal in der Form einer Kunststoffpalette. Eine solche Palette besitzt eine Auflagefläche 20 für eine Nutzlast, die von einem doppelwandigen Palettenoberteil 21 gebildet wird. Der Palettenoberteil 21 steht auf mehreren Füssen 22, die durch Querstreben 23 miteinander verbunden sind. Solche Paletten werden zum Beispiel in Lagerhäusern als Unterlage für Güter verschiedenster Art verwendet.Figure 4 shows a further embodiment of the invention, this time in the form of a plastic pallet. Such a pallet has a bearing surface 20 for a payload, which is formed by a double-walled pallet upper part 21. The upper pallet part 21 stands on a plurality of feet 22 which are connected to one another by cross struts 23. Such pallets are used, for example, in warehouses as a base for goods of all kinds.

Im Palettenoberteil 21 sind konstruktionsbedingt mehrere Hohlräume 7 ausgeformt, in denen Wasser 8 als Löschmedium angeordnet ist. In dieser Ausführung ist das Wasser, wie in Fig. 2, von Beuteln 10 umschlossen.Due to the design, a plurality of cavities 7 are formed in the upper pallet part 21, in which water 8 is arranged as the extinguishing medium. In this embodiment, the water, as in FIG. 2, is enclosed by bags 10.

Die Wirkungsweise der Palette nach Fig. 4 entspricht im Brandfall im wesentlichen jener der Behälter gemäss Fig. 1 und 2. Auch hier bildet das Wasser eine horizontale, quer zur primären Brandausbreitungsrichtung liegende Barriere, die die Brandgeschwindigkeit heruntersetzt.The mode of operation of the pallet according to FIG. 4 essentially corresponds to that of the containers according to FIGS. 1 and 2 in the event of a fire. Here too, the water forms a horizontal direction transverse to the primary direction of fire propagation lying barrier that reduces the speed of fire.

Durch die Anordnung des Löschmediums in der Palette wird ein normalerweise brach liegender Raum in wirtschaftlicher Weise genutzt.Due to the arrangement of the extinguishing medium in the pallet, a normally idle room is used economically.

In den vorangegangenen Beispielen wurde jeweils Wasser als Löschmedium verwendet. Es ist jedoch auch möglich, anstelle von Wasser, oder zusätzlich zu Wasser, andere fliess- bzw. schüttfähige Brandbekämpfungsstoffe einzusetzen, wie z.B. Sand, Löschpulver, Schaumbildner und/oder Steinmehl. Solche Stoffe ergiessen sich bei einem Brand nach dem Öffnen der Kammern nach unten der Brandfront entgegen und verzögern deren Ausbreitung. Als Löschmedium können auch gasförmige Brandbekämpfungsstoffe wirken, wie z.B. CO2, welche unter Normal- oder Überdruck in den Kammern eingeschlossen sind und im Brandfall austreten.In the previous examples, water was used as the extinguishing medium. However, instead of water, or in addition to water, it is also possible to use other flowable or pourable fire-fighting materials, such as sand, dry powder, foaming agent and / or stone powder. In the event of a fire, such substances pour out towards the fire front after opening the chambers and delay their spread. Gaseous fire-fighting substances, such as CO 2 , can also act as extinguishing media, which are enclosed in the chambers under normal or excess pressure and escape in the event of a fire.

Um eine möglichst breite Wirkung zu erzielen, sollte das Löschmedium bei einer Öffnung der Kammer schnell austreten. Hierzu sollten die Kammern vorzugsweise eine ausreichende, nicht mikroskopische Grösse aufweisen, so dass z.B. ein Verkleben mit dem flüssig werdenden Kunststoff verhindert wird.In order to achieve the broadest possible effect, the extinguishing medium should escape quickly when the chamber is opened. For this purpose, the chambers should preferably have a sufficient, non-microscopic size so that e.g. sticking with the liquid plastic is prevented.

Die Kammer 7 kann vorzugsweise mit einer Sollbruchstelle versehen werden, die so angeordnet ist, dass das Löschmedium im Brandfall in eine bevorzugte Richtung, z.B. nach unten, austritt. Damit kann die Wirkung des Löschmediums besser gesteuert werden.The chamber 7 can preferably be provided with a predetermined breaking point, which is arranged such that the extinguishing medium in the event of fire in a preferred direction, e.g. down, exits. The effect of the extinguishing medium can thus be better controlled.

Es zeigt sich, dass das Löschmittel, z.B. Wasser, etwa 5 bis 20, vorzugsweise etwa 10, Gewichtsprozent des gesamten Lager- bzw. Transportgebildes ausmachen sollte. Bei einem solchen Verhältnis ist der Brandbekämpfungseffekt ausreichend, während die Wirtschaftlichkeit nicht beeinträchtigt wird. Insbesondere wenn das Lager- bzw. Transportgebilde jedoch nur wenig transportiert wird, kann der Gewichtsanteil des Löschmediums auch erhöht werden.It turns out that the extinguishing agent, for example water, should make up about 5 to 20, preferably about 10, percent by weight of the total storage or transport structure. With such a ratio, the fire fighting effect is sufficient, while the economy is not impaired. In particular, if the storage or transport structure is only transported a little, the weight proportion of the extinguishing medium can also be increased.

Das Löschmedium kann nicht nur in Paletten und Behältern bzw. Palettenboxen in erfindungsgemässer Weise eingesetzt werden. Prinzipiell eignen sich zum Zwecke der Erfindung auch andere Transport- und Lagergebilde, wie z.B. Kunststoffgehäuse, Gebinde jeder Art und Lagereinrichtungsgegenstände (Kunststofftablare und dergleichen). Alle diese Gebilde dienen zur Aufnahme einer Nutzlast (bzw. Nutzinhalts) und können mit Kammern für ein von der Nutzlast getrenntes Löschmedium versehen werden.The extinguishing medium can not only be used in pallets and containers or pallet boxes in the manner according to the invention. In principle, other transport and storage structures, such as e.g. Plastic housing, containers of all types and storage equipment (plastic trays and the like). All of these structures serve to accommodate a payload (or useful content) and can be provided with chambers for an extinguishing medium that is separate from the payload.
