Definitions

  • the invention relates to a plastic transport device with a means a readable scanning device according to the preamble of Claim 1.
  • Transport devices made of plastic, in particular plastic containers or -Pallets with a recognition device such as barcode labels have been around for some time Time known, for example, to mark their content and by means of a To scan the barcode reader.
  • These detection means simplify the logistics in the way that z. B. the detection of the contents can be combined with the container can or circulations, deposit amounts, piece number comparisons with out or Returns can be made using barcode readers.
  • To scan a barcode it must be easily accessible and visible on the outer wall of the transport device be provided so that confident data detection can be guaranteed by the barcode reader. Automation of the Detection requires precise positioning of both the barcode on the reading transport device and the reader itself. In addition, leads Contamination or damage to the label may lead to errors Read off.
  • the barcodes are largely fixed on the transport device glued on with an adhesive strip or otherwise with the transport device connected, e.g. firmly stamped on the wall.
  • the present invention is based on the object of a transport device made of plastic with a detection means that a simple, automated and secure scanning and in another aspect one Data exchange possible.
  • This task is performed by a plastic container with the characteristics of Claim 1 solved.
  • the characteristics of the electronic integrated circuits as detection means designed transport devices can be much more efficient and so that it can be read out more economically. They are also effective against wear protected during normal use.
  • Figure 1 is a cross section through a wall 2 as a transport device trained plastic container 1 with a rectangular cover 3rd shown, the state before welding in Figure 1a and after in Figure 1b welding is shown.
  • the cover 3 has a protruding edge 5, whose inside 6 has a circumferential projection or clamping edge 7.
  • FIG. 1a the protruding edge 5 is pointed End region 9 formed, the ultrasonic welding with the plastic the container wall 2 in area 10 (FIG. 1b) melts and thus integrally is connected to the container 1 along the entire edge 5.
  • the cover or the cover 3 can also be by means of mirror welding or by means of a suitable adhesive such as epoxy resin are attached to the wall 2. In this case, the end region 9 is flat. The cover 3 forms thus with the container wall 2 a waterproof sealed for the transponder 8.
  • FIG. 2 a second variant of the envelope is shown, the first rectangular trained recess 12 and a second against the outer wall 13 of the Plastic container 1 step-widened, also rectangular recess 14 having.
  • the first recess 12 contains the board or the transponder 8, which either by gravity on the bottom 15 of the recess 12 (in a position rotated by 180 ° to represent FIG. 2) or through the inner edge the recess 12 is clamped by the inner mass of the recess 12 somewhat less or at most in agreement with the external dimensions
  • the board 8 are.
  • the cover 16 designed as a rectangular plate is then inserted in the step-shaped second recess 14 and by means of ultrasound or Mirror welding or then using an adhesive such as epoxy attached with this, whereby a watertight sealed envelope of Board 8 is formed.
  • This second variant of the wrapping is particularly suitable for plastic container 1 with a smooth wall without ribs, such as the container from Georg Utz AG known as Rako container, CH-5620 Bremgarten. Such an arrangement is especially for the bottom of a such container thought, but can also be provided elsewhere.
  • the wall 17 of the plastic container shown in broken lines can 1 designed somewhat thicker in the area of the shallow depression 12 to ensure the same wall thickness over the entire tank wall.
  • FIG. 3 a third variant of the envelope is shown, here a flat Incision 18 in the locally thicker wall 19 of the plastic container 1 is provided, which is slightly wider and deeper than the transponder 8 is.
  • This incision 18 has a step-like shape towards the outer wall 20 expanded slot 22, in which a square bar is formed Cover 23 is inserted.
  • the rod 23 is at its edge areas rest on the steps 24 of the slot 22, again by means of ultrasound or Mirror welding or then using a suitable adhesive with the Plastic container 1 cohesively and waterproof attached.
  • This third version the cover is particularly suitable for the upper edge or handle area a container which has outwardly projecting ribs 25 and 26 is trained.
  • the transponder 8 Since the transponder 8 also over longer distances in the range of 10 cm can be reliably scanned even a few meters, it can also be scanned install without problems in the bottom area of the plastic container 1. If this Transponder 8 for the same or similar container 1 always in the same place built-in, automatic recording of the characteristic data is straightforward possible.
  • the cover 4, 16, 23 can also have a different color than that Plastic container 1 may be formed so that the position of the transponder 8 clear on the container 1 is optically recognizable, what a manual reading or for Arrangement of the container 1 on a conveyor belt would be advantageous.
  • FIG. 4 shows a further variant of the casing, which here is of a the transponder 8 enclosing waterproof serving as a cover Plastic mass 30 is surrounded.
  • the cover 30 of the transponder 8 can for example in an injection molding process according to EP-B-0 399 868 become.
  • the edge region 31 of the plastic mass 30 needs in this case only selectively with the wall 2 of the container 1 at welding or gluing points 32 to be welded or glued.
  • vibration welding can also be used Attachment of the cover can be used.
  • the transponders 8 can be provided with a fixed coding which is defined individually for each transponder in the manufacturing plant and as an RO transponder ( Read only "). On the other hand, they can also be programmable by means of a corresponding programming device in order to designate each individual program in a special way. The latter are known as RW transponders ( Read Write "). As a rule, such transponders 8 have a very long lifespan, so that they can normally be used for at least the lifespan of the container 1. However, if a container 1 leaves prematurely due to wear or damage, the transponder 8 can be very easily removed and used for a new container 1.
  • the manufacturing steps for receiving the transponder 8 are particularly simple be inserted into the normal manufacturing process for plastic container 1 the latter is hardly or only slightly delayed. They can also Transponder 8 with the envelopes described above very easily on existing ones Containers 1 are attached. On the other hand, defective transponders 8 easily removed from still usable containers 1 and the latter reused become.
  • a plastic pallet with or without rollers can also be used as a transport device be considered for the transport of multiple containers or plastic containers serves.
