Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for storing and transport of elongated elements with folded ends on the same side.
  • bumpers are most often manufactured and painted by a subcontractor, then transported in trucks to the vehicle assembly plant automobiles.
  • This base is provided with generally vertical metal arches, which support mounting and wedging parts for painted bumpers, for example plastic material.
  • the base is also equipped with a central and longitudinal grating that the operator uses to install the bumpers on their supports one by one.
  • the number of bumpers that can be stored in such a container is necessarily limited due to the size of the metal arches and of the space which must be left free for the passage of the operator.
  • the number bumper means per container is in the range of six to ten.
  • the present invention aims to provide a solution to these problems.
  • this device for the storage and transport of elongated elements to ends folded back on the same side, such as motor vehicle bumpers, vertically along two opposite sides, several series of semi-rigid straps generally "U" shaped, the crossbar of which extends substantially horizontally and inwards, two straps facing each other being adapted to support by their transverse branch, an element at the connection areas from its intermediate part to its ends.
  • the device does not include means of metal supports which, by construction, necessarily occupy space, it is possible to store a higher number of items such as bumpers, this clutter equal.
  • straps are used, the risk of damaging the elements during their placement and removal is reduced. These straps can, to some extent, retract to facilitate placement or removal of a element.
  • the device shown in the appended figures is particularly suitable for storing and transporting motor vehicle bumpers.
  • This device includes a metal base which carries the digital reference 1. When viewed from above (figure 2), it takes the form of an elongated rectangle with two longitudinal sides and two transverse sides. These sides are materialized by a assembly of hollow metal sections 10 and 11 welded together. Preferably, the length of the longitudinal sections 11 corresponds substantially to the width of the trailer of the truck in which this type of device is intended to be housed.
  • Profiles 141 are hollow and open out at the side transverse front of the base materialized by a profile 10.
  • aisle 14 allows an operator in front load bumpers on the device, move from the front to the bottom of this one and vice versa.
  • metal posts 12 At each corner of the base 1 vertically extend metal posts 12. As an indication, they measure approximately 1.50m in height. They are attached to the base by welding and this mounting is reinforced by triangular angle angles 15.
  • Parallel to the corner post 12 extend along the profiles 11 several pairs of secondary posts 13.
  • four pairs of posts are provided along each profile 11.
  • a number different could be expected, for example three or five pairs.
  • the provision secondary posts along the two long sides of the base are symmetrical by relative to a vertical median plane. Therefore, the posts of each pair are made face two to two.
  • the secondary posts 13 are preferably formed from profiles hollow metal and on their side facing the inside of the device is fixed a plate vertical 50 of reduced thickness, for example by means of screws not shown. On the one part with this plate is provided a vertical slide section in the shape of "C" 51, whose opening, which extends vertically, is turned towards the interior of the device.
  • each of the secondary posts 13 there is therefore a slide 51 associated. They face each other in pairs, with their openings facing each other.
  • the device according to the invention is also equipped with flaps which carry the reference 3.
  • flaps which carry the reference 3.
  • These are, for example, strips of canvas, such as those used for the tarpaulin of trucks.
  • it is a plastic canvas advantageously reinforced by a metallic or fiber mesh. While being solid, these flaps are likely to be distorted.
  • flaps have an elongated rectangular shape with their two large sides 30 which have the length close to the height of the posts 13. Their small sides have a small dimension, for example of the order of ten centimeters.
  • One of their long sides is folded 360 ° on itself, around a rod or metallic core 6 which, also, has substantially the same height as that of the posts. This assembly is held in place by one or more series of seam lines C.
  • each tarpaulin 3 is inserted, at its vertical edge provided with the "C" slide, inside the slide 51.
  • the rod 6 constitutes in a way a vertical axis of articulation for each flap 3.
  • a series of semi-rigid straps 2 in general shape "U" extend in the vertical direction between each pair of flaps, a series of semi-rigid straps 2 in general shape "U". These straps are fixed by their parallel branches 21, to the external faces of the flaps 3. This fixing is carried out for example by means of seam lines C , as shown in FIG. 3.
  • These straps are generally directed downwards and their wings parallel form an acute angle with the horizontal of the order of about 60 °.
  • the crossbar 20 of the straps extends horizontally and longitudinally relative to the base of the device, and therefore transversely to the mud flaps 3. However, due to the inclination of the branches 21 relative to the horizontal, the plane in which the crossbar 20 is contained is inclined relative to the vertical.
  • the material which constitutes each of the straps is stiffened by a metallic core 7. This extends only at the level of the transverse bar 20. This is in fact made up of two bands sewn together and inside which is inserted said soul 7.
  • Each pair of flaps 3 constitute with its associated straps 2 a deformable assembly, to a certain extent, with respect to the vertical axes materialized by the rods 6.
  • these assemblies are relatively solid.
  • the spacing between the flaps 3 constituting a pair is chosen to so as to be slightly greater than the width of an article to be stored.
  • the spacing between the straps facing each other two-by-two is provided, as we will see more away, so as to be slightly less than the total length of the articles to be stored.
  • bumpers that have been manufactured and painted at a subcontractor which must be routed to the factory of an automobile manufacturer for mounting on vehicles.
  • Each bumper 4 has a general shape of a banana with a part elongated intermediate 40 and two ends folded back on the same side 41. We have identified by the reference 42 the connection zones of the intermediate part 40 at the ends folded down 41.
  • the device according to the invention is assumed to be empty of bumpers and in place On the ground.
  • the bumpers are supposed to be coated with a paint, which has had time to dry.
  • an operator P grabs a bumper.
  • the natural gesture of grip of this bumper by the operator P is illustrated in FIG. 2, which means that he grasps it at its intermediate part 40, the folded ends 41 of the latter extending horizontally from each side of the operator.
  • the operator When the operator is in front of the last series of flaps which equips the bottom of the device, it raises the bumper 4 so as to present its ends folded down 41. It then positions said ends so that they engage between the flaps 3 and the straps 2 arranged closest to the ground. As the shows FIG. 3, the bumper 4 bears on the crossbar 20 of the straps, at the connection zone 42 of its intermediate part 40 at its ends 41.
  • the bumper is sort of hanging from the straps, while the flaps between which its ends extend, constitute stops which oppose any lateral displacement.
  • the bumper support means have no bulky fixed metal element, it is possible to set up a larger number high bumper per device.
  • the straps could be directly fixed and articulated on the posts of the device.
  • these posts can be replaced by plates that extend vertically all along the device.
  • the plates 50 can be easily removed, so that the The device's chassis can be used to store other objects.
