Abstract

The invention relates to a device for safe-keeping and transporting piece goods, especially articles whose dimensions are significantly larger in at least one or in two directions which are perpendicular to one another than in the remaining third spatial direction. The articles are accommodated in essentially u-shaped pockets which are formed in a flexible strip material and which are arranged in a rack or frame. The aim of the invention is to create a device with the aforementioned characteristics in which loading and unloading is simplified, however, while retaining the other advantages of known devices, and in which the articles are accommodated such that they are protected just as well as before or are even better-protected. To this end, the invention provides that the u-shaped pockets (3) are each formed by material strips (4) which extend in an essentially parallel manner and which are made of flexible material. At least one connecting strip (5) made of the flexible strip material extends between both material strips and is preferably connected essentially over the entire length thereof to both adjacent material strips.

Description

Vorrichtung für die Aufbewahrung und den Transport von Stückgut Device for the storage and transport of piece goods
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung für die Aufbewahrung und den Transport von Stückgut, insbesondere von Gegenständen, deren Abmessungen in mindestens einer oder in zwei zueinander senkrechten Richtungen deutlich größer sind als in der verbleibenden dritten Raumrichtung, wobei die Gegenstände in im wesentlichen U-förmigen Taschen aufgenommen sind, die aus einem flexiblen Bahnmaterial gebildet und in einem Gestell oder Rahmen angeordnet sind.The present invention relates to a device for the storage and transport of piece goods, in particular objects, the dimensions of which are significantly larger in at least one or in two mutually perpendicular directions than in the remaining third spatial direction, the objects in essentially U-shaped pockets are included, which are formed from a flexible web material and are arranged in a frame or frame.
Eine solche Vorrichtung ist z. B. aus den deutschen Patentanmeldungen P 41 38 507 und 195 49 166 bekannt. Bei der bekannten Vorrichtung werden die U-förmigen Taschen gebildet durch eine lange Materialbahn, welche in eine Mehrzahl von Schleifen gelegt ist, die z. B. an im Abstand hintereinander angeordneten Stangen aufgehängt sind, so daß also die Materialbahn quer über eine erste Stange gelegt ist, sich nach unten erstreckt und U-förmig wieder aufwärts erstreckt, anschließend über die nächste Stange gelegt wird und sofort. Die Abschnitte, die über die Stangen gehängt sind, können dabei abgenäht sein, so daß sie geschlossene Schlaufen bilden, durch welche sich die Trägerstangen hindurch erstrecken, so daß die Materialbahn auf diesen Stangen auch nicht in ihrer Längsrichtung verrutschen kann und damit die U-förmigen Taschen immer die gleiche Länge bzw. Tiefe aufweisen. Die Materialbahn kann auch an eigens an dieser Materialbahn angebrachten, zusätzlichen Schlaufen aufgehängt sein.Such a device is e.g. B. from the German patent applications P 41 38 507 and 195 49 166 known. In the known device, the U-shaped pockets are formed by a long web of material which is placed in a plurality of loops which, for. B. are suspended on bars arranged one behind the other at a distance, so that the material web is placed transversely over a first bar, extends downward and extends U-shaped upwards again, is then placed over the next bar and immediately. The sections that are hung over the rods can be sewn, so that they form closed loops through which the support rods extend so that the material web on these rods can not slip in their longitudinal direction and thus the U-shaped Bags always have the same length or depth. The material web can also be suspended from additional loops specially attached to this material web.
Solche Vorrichtungen werden z.B. verwendet für die Aufbewahrung und den Transport von einzelnen Bauteilen bei der Automobilherstellung, z. B. von Karosserieteilen, Türverkleidungen und anderen Komponenten, die im Regelfall mehr oder weniger zweidimensionale Gegenstände sind, d. h. Gegenstände, die in mindestens einer, zumeist aber in zwei zueinander senkrechten Richtungen im Vergleich zu der dritten, verbleibenden Richtung relativ große Abmessungen haben. Dies gilt z. B. für die Türen, Türverkleidungen, Motorhauben, Kotflügel und andere Teile von Kraftfahrzeugen.Such devices are e.g. used for the storage and transport of individual components in automobile manufacture, e.g. B. of body parts, door panels and other components, which are usually more or less two-dimensional objects, d. H. Objects that have relatively large dimensions in at least one, but mostly in two mutually perpendicular directions compared to the third, remaining direction. This applies e.g. B. for the doors, door panels, hoods, fenders and other parts of motor vehicles.
Mit entsprechenden Vorrichtungen für die Aufbewahrung und den Transport derartiger Bauteile, die vergleichsweise stoß- und kratzempfindlich sind, sollen die entsprechenden Bauteile möglichst kostengünstig, d. h. ohne aufwendige Verpackungen, sowohl transportiert als auch gelagert werden. Die entsprechenden Vorrichtungen sind je nach Ausgestaltung relativ einfach zu be- und entladen, sie sind wiederverwendbar und sie können, falls keine Gegenstände darin transportiert werden, je nach Ausgestaltung auch platzsparend zusammengelegt bzw. zusammengeklappt werden.With appropriate devices for the storage and transport of such components, which are comparatively sensitive to impact and scratches, the corresponding components should be transported and stored as inexpensively as possible, ie without complex packaging. Depending on the design, the corresponding devices are relatively easy to load and unload, they are reusable and, if no objects are transported in them, they can also be folded or, depending on the design, to save space. to be folded up.
Zur Schonung der in diesen Vorrichtungen transportierten Gegenstände bestehen die Materialbahnen üblicherweise aus einem relativ weichen, flexiblen Tuch, welches z. B. ein Gewebe sein kann oder aber aus einem vliesartigen Material, eventuell auch aus einer Kunststoffbahn mit Prägungen bestehen kann.To protect the objects transported in these devices, the material webs usually consist of a relatively soft, flexible cloth, which, for. B. may be a fabric or may consist of a non-woven material, possibly also from a plastic sheet with embossing.
Wenn die entsprechenden Gegenstände relativ groß und vergleichsweise dünn sind, müssen die U-förmigen Taschen, in welche die Gegenstände entweder von oben zwischen zwei Stangen oder aber seitlich in die stirnseitig offenen Enden der U-förmigen Taschen eingeschoben werden, eine entsprechend große vertikale (eventuell auch horizontale) Tiefe aufweisen. Zwischen zwei benachbarten Stangen, an welchen die beiden Enden einer solchen U-förmigen Tasche aufgeh ngt sind, hängt dann ein relativ langes Stück Materialbahn unter Bildung der U- förmigen Schleife lose herab.If the corresponding objects are relatively large and comparatively thin, the U-shaped pockets, into which the objects are inserted either from above between two rods or laterally into the ends of the U-shaped pockets open at the front, must have a correspondingly large vertical (possibly also have horizontal) depth. A relatively long piece of material web then loosely hangs between two adjacent rods on which the two ends of such a U-shaped pocket are suspended, forming the U-shaped loop.
Da diese Materialbahn zur Schonung und zum Schutz der zu transportierenden bzw. aufzubewahrenden Gegenstände relativ weich und flexibel ist, können sich bei den lose herabhängenden Materialbahnen die gegenüberliegenden Bahnabschnitte relativ leicht verwerfen oder auch Falten bilden, was dazu führen kann, daß die beiden, die U-Schenkel bildenden Abschnitte einer U-förmigen Tasche sich aneinander anlegen, so daß die entsprechende Tasche mindestens an einer ihrer Stirnseiten oder in Teilen dieser Stirnseiten nicht mehr offen und ohne weiteres zugänglich ist. Bei vielen Anwendungsf ällen ist jedoch die Be- und Entladung dieser Vorrichtungen gerade von der Stirnseite der Taschen her vor allem deshalb bevorzugt, weil diese Taschen auch wegen ihrer Größe in den entsprechenden Rahmen oder Gestellen so hoch aufgehängt sein müssen, daß die Taschen, wenn das betreffende Gestell einfach auf dem Boden oder auf einer Palette steht, für das Personal, welches diese Vorrichtungen be- oder entlädt, am besten von den Seiten her, d. h. von den Stirnseiten der betreffenden Taschen her, zugänglich ist und nicht von der Oberseite zwischen den Trägerstangen.Since this material web is relatively soft and flexible to protect and protect the objects to be transported or stored, the opposite web sections can be relatively easily warped or folds in the loosely hanging material webs, which can lead to the fact that the two, the U - Leg-forming sections of a U-shaped pocket lie against each other so that the corresponding pocket is no longer open and readily accessible at least on one of its end faces or in parts of these end faces. In many applications, however, the loading and unloading of these devices from the front side of the pockets is preferred primarily because these pockets must also be suspended so high in the corresponding frames or racks because of their size that the pockets, if that stand in question simply stands on the floor or on a pallet, for the personnel who load or unload these devices, best from the sides, i. H. is accessible from the end faces of the pockets in question and not from the top between the support rods.
Wenn sich jedoch die Bahnen aufgrund ihrer Flexibilität verwerfen und aneinander anlegen, wird auf jeden Fall das Beladen einer solchen Vorrichtung beträchtlich erschwert, weil eine Person, die dann einen Gegenstand in diese Tasche einschieben will, zunächst einmal die Tasche öffnen muß, d. h. die aneinander anliegenden Abschnitte der Materialbahnen voneinander trennen muß, um einen Gegenstand in diese Tasche einschieben zu können. Dies ist besonders lästig, wenn die Person an sich beide Hände braucht, um den Gegenstand zu tragen und in die Tasche einzuführen, was dann dazu führen kann, daß zunächst der Gegenstand abgestellt werden muß, die betreffende Tasche dann geöffnet werden muß, so daß erst danach der Gegenstand wieder ergriffen und in die Tasche eingeschoben werden kann, wobei auch dann noch die Tasche wieder selbständig schließen kann, wenn sie nicht gezielt offengehalten wird.However, if the webs warp due to their flexibility and lay against each other, the loading of such a device is in any case made considerably more difficult because a person who then wants to insert an object into this pocket must first open the pocket, that is to say the ones lying against one another Separate sections of the material webs from each other in order to be able to insert an object into this pocket. This is particularly troublesome when the person needs both hands to carry the object and insert it into the pocket, which can then lead to the object being put down first must be opened, the bag in question must then be opened, so that only afterwards the object can be gripped again and inserted into the bag, the bag still being able to close independently if it is not deliberately kept open.
Beim Abstellen des Gegenstandes besteht außerdem die Gefahr des Beschädigens oder Verkratzens.When placing the item there is also a risk of damage or scratching.
Ein weiterer Nachteil der bekannten Vorrichtung besteht darin, daß benachbarte Taschen jeweils eine Aufhängestange gemeinsam benutzen, so daß dementsprechend alle U-förmigen Taschen unmittelbar benachbart sind und durch die gemeinsame Materialbahn, aus der sie gebildet werden, zusammenhängen. Es besteht dann praktisch keine Möglichkeit, noch zusätzliches Dämpfungs- und Verpackungsmaterial zwischen den Taschen anzuordnen, da insbesondere die Überdieselbe Stange herabhängenden Bahnabschnitte benachbarter Taschen im allgemeinen unmittelbar aneinander anliegen. Zwar könnten diese Materialbahnen durchaus voneinander getrennt werden, jedoch erfordert auch dies wieder zusätzliche Handgriffe.Another disadvantage of the known device is that adjacent pockets each share a hanging bar, so that, accordingly, all U-shaped pockets are immediately adjacent and are connected by the common material web from which they are formed. There is then practically no possibility of arranging additional damping and packaging material between the pockets, since in particular the web sections of adjacent pockets which hang over the same rod generally abut one another directly. Although these material webs could be separated from one another, this also requires additional manipulations.
Die lediglich an ihrem oberen Ende aufgeh ngten, U-förmigen Taschen haben außerdem die störende Neigung, z. B. beim Transport in einem Lkw oder einem sonstigen Gefährt ins Schaukeln zu geraten, insbesondere wenn schwere Gegenstände in diesen Taschen aufgenommen sind. Durch diese Schaukelbewegungen können die Taschen aneinander oder auch an den Rahmen oder das Gestell anschlagen, was dann trotz der Abdeckung durch die Materialbahn zu Beschädigungen der darin aufgenommenen Gegenstände führen kann.The only suspended at their upper end, U-shaped pockets also have the annoying tendency, for. B. get rocked when transported in a truck or other vehicle, especially when heavy objects are accommodated in these pockets. As a result of these rocking movements, the pockets can strike against one another or also against the frame or the frame, which, despite the covering by the material web, can then lead to damage to the objects accommodated therein.
Gegenüber diesem Stand der Technik liegt der vorliegenden Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Vorrichtung mit den eingangs genannten Merkmalen zu schaffen, bei welcher der Be- und Entladevorgang vereinfacht ist und dennoch die sonstigen Vorteile der bekannten Vorrichtungen erhalten bleiben und die Gegenstä nde auch nach wie vor gut gesch ützt oder sogar noch besser geschützt aufgenommen werden.Compared to this prior art, the present invention has for its object to provide a device with the features mentioned, in which the loading and unloading process is simplified and still retain the other advantages of the known devices and the objects as before well protected or even better protected.
Diese Aufgabe wird dadurch gelöst, daß die U-förmigen Taschen gebildet werden durch jeweils zwei separate, sich im wesentlichen parallel erstreckende Materialbahnen aus dem flexiblen Material, wobei sich mindestens je eine zusätzliche Verbindungsbahn aus einem flexiblen Bahnmaterial zwischen den beiden Materialbahnen erstreckt und jeweils im wesentlichen über ihre gesamte Länge hinweg mit den beiden benachbarten, separaten Materialbahnen verbunden ist.This object is achieved in that the U-shaped pockets are each formed by two separate, essentially parallel material webs made of the flexible material, at least one additional connecting web made of a flexible web material extending between the two material webs and essentially each is connected over its entire length to the two adjacent, separate material webs.
Ein wesentlicher Unterschied zu der bekannten Vorrichtung besteht also darin, daß nicht etwa eine durchgehende, U-förmig aufgehängte Materialbahn die betreffende Tasche bildet, sondern daß zwei im wesentlichen ebene und im Abstand zueinander getrennt aufgehängte Bahnen aus einem flexiblen Material vorgesehen sind, die dann durch eine zusätzliche Verbindungsbahn miteinander verbunden werden, so daß sich in einem Querschnitt senkrecht zu den beiden parallelen Materialbahnen und senrecht zu der durch die Verbindungsbahn definierten Ebene im Prinzip eine U-Form ergibt. Dabei müssen die parallelen bzw. senkrecht herabhängenden, separaten Materialbahnen nicht notwendigerweise an ihrem unteren Ende durch die Verbindungsbahn miteinander verbunden sein, sondern dies kann auch in einem etwas höheren Bereich geschehen. Insbesondere können auch mehrere Verbindungsbahnen im Abstand und im wesentlichen parallel zueinander die beiden separaten Materialbahnen miteinander verbinden, so daß z.B. mehrere übereinander angeordnete, jeweils einen U-Querschnitt aufweisende Taschen gebildet werden, die durch eine zusätzliche Verbindungsbahn an ihrer Oberseite, zum Beispiel durch die Verbindungsbahn einer darüber angeordneten U-förmigen Tasche, die den vorhandenen U-Querschnitt sozusagen zu einem —Querschnitt ergänzt, geschlossen sein können.An essential difference to the known device is that not a continuous, U-shaped suspended material web forms the relevant pocket, but that two essentially flat and spaced apart webs made of a flexible material are provided, which are then connected to each other by an additional connecting web, so that in a cross section perpendicular to the two parallel material webs and perpendicular to the plane defined by the connecting web results in principle in a U-shape. The parallel or vertically depending, separate material webs need not necessarily be connected to one another at their lower end by the connecting web, but this can also be done in a somewhat higher area. In particular, a plurality of connecting webs can be spaced apart and essentially parallel to one another to connect the two separate material webs to one another, so that, for example, a plurality of pockets arranged one above the other, each having a U-cross section, are formed, which are provided by an additional connecting web on their top, for example by the connecting web a U-shaped pocket arranged above it, which supplements the existing U cross-section to a cross-section, so to speak, can be closed.
Dadurch daß die separaten Materialbahnen im allgemeinen senkrecht herabhängen und nur durch eine zusätzliche Verbindungsbahn miteinander verbunden sind, werden sie leichter auf Abstand zueinander gehalten und haben nicht mehr die Tendenz, sich aneinander anzulegen und damit die offenen Stirnseiten der U-förmigen Taschen zu verschließen.Because the separate material webs generally hang vertically and are only connected to one another by an additional connecting web, they are more easily kept at a distance from one another and no longer have the tendency to lie against one another and thus to close the open end faces of the U-shaped pockets.
Die Verbindungsbahnen können außerdem noch eine Einlage aus einem etwas weniger flexiblen Material aufweisen, wie z. B. eine dünne Kunststoffplatte oder eine etwas dickere Kunststoffolie, die sich z. B. im wesentlichen entlang der gesamten Verbindungsbahn erstreckt und die den Effekt des Auseinanderhaltens der beiden getrennten Materialbahnen noch wesentlich verstärkt. Die Verbindungsbahnen müssen sich im übrigen nicht notwendigerweise horinzontal zwischen den senkrecht hängenden, separaten Materialbahnen erstrecken, sondern sie können z. B. auch geneigt zur Horizontalen verlaufen oder aber sogar sich vertikal zwischen den Materialbahnen erstrecken, so daß der U-Querschnitt der Taschen sich im wentlichen nur in einem horizontalen Schnitt ergibt. Die Verbindungsbahn kann so zwischen die beiden anderen Materialbahnen gelegt und mit diesen verbunden werden, daß sie für sich gesehen auch wiederum die Form eines U bildet, sie kann aber auch in Form eines "S" die beiden benachbarten, im wesentlichen eben herabhängenden Materialbahnen miteinander verbinden.The connecting webs can also have an insert made of a somewhat less flexible material, such as. B. a thin plastic plate or a somewhat thicker plastic film, which z. B. extends substantially along the entire connecting web and the effect of keeping the two separate material webs apart is significantly enhanced. The connecting webs do not necessarily have to extend horizontally between the vertically hanging, separate material webs, but they can e.g. B. also inclined to the horizontal or even extend vertically between the webs of material, so that the U-cross section of the pockets results only in a horizontal section. The connecting web can be placed between the two other webs of material and connected to them in such a way that in turn it also forms the shape of a U, but it can also connect the two adjacent, essentially level-hanging webs of material to one another in the form of an "S" .
Der Abstand der Verbindungsstellen, die sich vorzugsweise über die gesamte Breite bzw. Tiefe der Taschen erstrecken, kann dabei deutlich kleiner sein als die gesamte Breite der Verbindungsbahn zwischen den einander gegenüberliegenden Befestigungsstellen. Dies gilt insbesondere, wenn die Verbindungsbahn die erwähnte Einlage aufweist, welche dann eine normale Abstandsbreite zwischen den beiden senkrecht herabhängenden Materialbahnen definiert, die aber bei Bedarf auf die volle Breite der Verbindungsbahn zwischen ihren Befestigungsbereichen vergrößert werden kann.The distance between the connection points, which preferably extend over the entire width or depth of the pockets, can be significantly smaller than the entire width of the connection path between the mutually opposite fastening points. this applies in particular if the connecting web has the aforementioned insert, which then defines a normal spacing width between the two vertically depending material webs, but which can be increased to the full width of the connecting web between its fastening areas if required.
Die Verbindungsbahn kann an die beiden parallelen Materialbahnen entweder angenäht, angeklebt oder angeschweißt sein. Wesentlich ist nur eine feste, tragfähige Verbindung, da u. U. relativ schwergewichtige Gegenstände in den Taschen aufzunehmen sind.The connecting web can either be sewn, glued or welded onto the two parallel material webs. What is essential is only a firm, stable connection, since u. U. relatively heavy items are to be included in the pockets.
In der bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist die Breite der Verbindungsbahn zwischen ihren Befestigungsbereichen an den beiden benachbarten Materialbahnen größer als der Abstand zwischen den dadurch verbundenen Materialbahnen in ihrer normalen, für den Transport oder die Aufbewahrung von Gegenständen vorgesehenen Position. Es versteht sich, daß die Breite der Verbindungsbahn der maximalen Tiefe der in den U-förmigen Taschen aufzunehmenden Gegenständen angepaßt ist und gegebenenfalls größer ist als die maximalen Abmessungen der aufzunehmenden Gegenstände in der erwähnten dritten Raumrichtung.In the preferred embodiment of the invention, the width of the connecting web between its fastening regions on the two adjacent material webs is greater than the distance between the material webs connected thereby in their normal position intended for the transport or storage of objects. It is understood that the width of the connecting track is adapted to the maximum depth of the objects to be accommodated in the U-shaped pockets and, if appropriate, is greater than the maximum dimensions of the objects to be accommodated in the third spatial direction mentioned.
Dabei können jedoch die flexiblen Materialbahnen sich der Form der aufzunehmenden Gegenst nde anpassen und sich gegebenenfalls im Bereich von Vorsprüngen der Gegenst nde mehr oder weniger ausbeulen, gegebenenfalls auch über die Breite der Verbindungsbahn hinaus. Die erwähnte vorzusehende, etwas steifere Einlage in der Verbindungsbahn hat vorzugsweise eine Breite, die deutlich kleiner ist als die Gesamtbreite der Verbindungsbahn zwischen ihren Befestigungsbereichen.However, the flexible material webs can adapt to the shape of the objects to be picked up and, if necessary, bulge more or less in the area of protrusions of the objects, possibly also beyond the width of the connecting web. The aforementioned, somewhat stiffer insert to be provided in the connecting track preferably has a width which is significantly smaller than the total width of the connecting track between its fastening areas.
Die Materialbahnen sind vorzugsweise an ihren oberen Ecken aufgehängt und nach Möglichkeit auch noch an ihrer vorderen unteren Ecke aufgehängt bzw. geführt. Auf diese Weise ist es möglich, die Bahn zwischen mindestens drei Punkten mehr oder weniger zu spannen und damit im wesentlichen eben in ihrer Position zu halten. Bei Materialbahnen, die besonders breit sind und so z.B. von zwei entgegengesetzten Seiten her Gegenstände in eine entsprechend breiten, U-förmigen Tasche aufnehmen können, wobei auch noch eine vertikale Trennwand zwischen diesen Gegenständen innerhalb der Tasche vorgesehen sein kann, wird die Materialbahn vorzugsweise auch an der hinteren Ecke bzw. insgesamt an allen vier Ecken aufgehängt, wobei zusätzlich noch eine Aufhängung in der Mitte der oberen Kante vorgesehen werden kann.The material webs are preferably hung at their upper corners and, if possible, also hung or guided at their lower front corner. In this way it is possible to stretch the web more or less between at least three points and thus to hold it essentially level. For material webs that are particularly wide and e.g. can receive objects from two opposite sides in a correspondingly wide, U-shaped pocket, and a vertical partition between these objects can also be provided within the pocket, the material web is preferably also at the rear corner or in total at all four corners suspended, with an additional suspension in the middle of the upper edge can be provided.
Besonders bevorzugt ist eine Ausgestaltung dieser Aufhängung in Form von in die Materialbahn eingearbeiteten Ösen, welche auf Stangen geführt sind, die sich in dem Gestell oder Rahmen parallel zueinander in dem Abstand voneinander erstrecken, den auch die entsprechenden Ösen auf der ausgebreiteten Bahn voneinander haben.An embodiment of this suspension is particularly preferred in the form of eyelets incorporated into the material web, which are guided on rods which extend parallel to one another in the frame or frame at the same distance from one another as the corresponding eyelets have on the spread path of each other.
Der entsprechende Rahmen sollte entweder oben oder seitlich offen sein, um die U-förmigen Taschen dementsprechend von oben oder von der Seite her, gegebenenfalls auch von beiden gegenüberliegenden Seiten her, zugänglich zu machen.The corresponding frame should either be open at the top or on the side in order to make the U-shaped pockets accessible from above or from the side, if necessary also from both opposite sides.
Die Stangen, auf welchen die Ösen der Materialbahnen geführt sind, sind zweckmäßigerweise in einen zusammenlegbaren Rahmen eingehängt. Dadurch ist es möglich, die Stangen mit den Materialbahnen auszuhängen, gegebenenfalls auch die Stangen aus den Ösen herauszuziehen und die Materialbahnen in einem dicht gepackten Stapel anzuordnen, wobei auch der Rahmen zusammengelegt wird, so daß die leere Vorrichtung in diesem zusammengelegten Zustand nur sehr wenig Raum einnimmt.The rods on which the eyelets of the material webs are guided are expediently suspended in a collapsible frame. This makes it possible to unhook the rods with the material webs, if necessary also to pull the rods out of the eyelets and to arrange the material webs in a tightly packed stack, the frame also being collapsed, so that the empty device in this collapsed state requires very little space occupies.
Wenn die Materialbahnen in dem Rahmen oder Gestell angeordnet sind, können Abstandhalter zwischen benachbarten Materialbahnen vorgesehen sein, und zwar sowohl zwischen den jeweils mit einer Verbindungsbahn gemeinsam eine Tasche bildenden Materialbahnen als auch zwischen benachbarten Materialbahnen, die zu jeweils einer anderen U-förmigen Tasche gehören. In diesem Zwischenraum kann insbesondere auch Polstermaterial eingebracht werden, so daß eventuell harte, jedoch empfindliche Gegenstände in benachbarten, U-förmigen Taschen sehr gut gegeneinander abgepolstert sind.If the material webs are arranged in the frame or frame, spacers can be provided between adjacent material webs, namely both between the material webs which together form a pocket with a connecting web and between adjacent material webs which each belong to a different U-shaped pocket. Upholstery material in particular can also be introduced into this intermediate space, so that possibly hard, but sensitive objects in adjacent, U-shaped pockets are very well cushioned against one another.
Bei einer solchen Ausführungsform mit Abpolsterungsmό'glichkeit ist es zweckmäßig, wenn die Materialbahnen jeweils nur paarweise durch Verbindungsbahnen zusammenhängend vorgesehen sind, so daß jeweils abwechselnd Polstermaterial und die zu transportierenden bzw. aufzubewahrenden Gegenstände zwischen aufeinanderfolgenden Materialbahnen angeordnet sind, letztere jeweils in den von zwei Materialbahnen gebildeten, U-förmigen Taschen.In such an embodiment with Abpolsterungsmό 'there is possibility expedient if the material webs are only provided in pairs connected by means of connecting webs, so that each cushion material and to be transported or articles to be preserved between successive sheets of material are alternately arranged, the latter in each of the two material webs formed, U-shaped pockets.
Es ist jedoch auch möglich, eine Materialbahn jeweils auf beiden Seiten mit einer Verbindungsbahn zu versehen und das freie Ende dieser Verbindungsbahn dann jeweils mit einer weiteren Materialbahn zu verbinden, wobei dies auch weiter fortgesetzt werden kann, bis eine gewünschte Anzahl zusammenh ängender Materialbahnen hergestellt worden ist, wobei mit Ausnahme der beiden äußersten Materialbahnen alle inneren Materialbahnen jeweils zu zwei benachbarten, U-förmigen Taschen gehören.However, it is also possible to provide a material web on both sides with a connecting web and then to connect the free end of this connecting web to a further material web, which can be continued until a desired number of coherent material webs has been produced , with the exception of the two outermost material webs, all inner material webs each belong to two adjacent, U-shaped pockets.
Weiterhin ist es zweckmäßig, wenn bei einem entsprechenden Rahmen oder Gestell, in welchem die Materialbahnen aufgenommen sind, durch eine weitere Materialbahn oder einen Vorhang, welche sich im wesentlichen senkrecht zu den parallelen Materialbahnen der U- förmigen Taschen erstrecken, alle offenen Seiten des Rahmens oder Gestells verschließbar sind.It is also expedient if, in the case of a corresponding frame or frame in which the material webs are accommodated, by a further material web or a Curtain, which extend essentially perpendicular to the parallel material webs of the U-shaped pockets, all open sides of the frame or frame can be closed.

Figur 12 eine weitere Variante der zu den Figuren 1 bis 4 beschriebenen Ausführungsform.12 shows a further variant of the embodiment described for FIGS. 1 to 4.
Man erkennt in Figur 1 einen Kasten 1 , der mit Ausnahme seiner links vorn sichtbaren Vorderseite an allen übrigen Seiten geschlossen ist. Gegebenenfalls könnte jedoch auch die der offenen Seite gegenüberliegende Seite ebenfalls offen sein.A box 1 can be seen in FIG. 1, which is closed on all other sides with the exception of its front side, which is visible at the front left. If necessary, however, the side opposite the open side could also be open.
Parallel zu den unteren und oberen Kanten der offenen Seite erstrecken sich Stangen bzw. Rohe 2, die in Stangenhalter 12 eingehängt sind, welche ihrerseits an der Gehäusewand des Kastens 1 befestigt sind. Auch in der Nähe der geschlossenen Rückwand erstrecken sich entsprechende Stangen 2 jeweils in der Nähe der oberen und der unteren Kante.Parallel to the lower and upper edges of the open side, rods or tubes 2 extend, which are suspended in rod holders 12, which in turn are fastened to the housing wall of the box 1. Also extend near the closed back wall corresponding rods 2 each near the top and bottom edges.
Die Stangen 2 tragen flexible Materialbahnen 4, die eine im wesentlichen rechteckige Form haben und die in ihren Eckbereichen jeweils Ösen 9 aufweisen, die auf die Stangen 2 aufgezogen sind. Dabei ist der Abstand der Stangen 2 zueinander und der Abstand der Osten 9 auf den Bahnen 4 zueinander jeweils so bemessen, daß die Materialbahnen 4 von den oberen Stangen 2 lose herabhängen können oder leicht gespannt sind, so daß die Materialbahnen 4 im wesentlichen flache, ebene Materialbahnen bilden. Zwischen den einzelnen Materialbahnen 4 sind auf die Stangen 2 noch jeweils Abstandhalter 10 in Form kurzer Rohrabschnitte aufgezogen, deren Außendurchmesser größer ist als der Innendurchmesser der Ösen 9 und die so benachbarte Materialbahnen 4 auf einem fest vorgebbaren Abstand halten.The rods 2 carry flexible material webs 4 which have an essentially rectangular shape and which each have eyelets 9 in their corner regions which are drawn onto the rods 2. The distance between the rods 2 to each other and the distance between the east 9 on the webs 4 to each other is dimensioned such that the material webs 4 can hang loosely from the upper rods 2 or are slightly stretched, so that the material webs 4 are essentially flat, level Form material webs. Between the individual material webs 4, spacers 10 in the form of short pipe sections are also drawn onto the rods 2, the outer diameter of which is greater than the inner diameter of the eyelets 9 and the material webs 4, which are adjacent in this way, are kept at a predetermined distance.
Zwischen je zwei benachbarten Materialbahnen 4 sind U-förmige Verbindungsbahnen 5 eingenäht, die zusammen mit den sich vertikal erstreckenden Materialbahnen 4, die im folgenden auch als Trennbahnen bezeichnet werden, U-förmige Taschen 3 bilden. In dem in Figur 1 dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel sind jeweils 2 Verbindungsbahnen 5 im Abstand übereinander zwischen je zwei benachbarte Trennbahnen 4 eingenäht, so daß jeweils zwischen zwei Trennbahnen 4 zwei übereinanderliegende, U-förmige Taschen 3 gebildet werden.Between two adjacent material webs 4, U-shaped connecting webs 5 are sewn in, which together with the vertically extending material webs 4, which are also referred to below as separating webs, form U-shaped pockets 3. In the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 1, two connecting webs 5 are sewn one above the other between two adjacent separating webs 4, so that two superimposed, U-shaped pockets 3 are formed between two separating webs 4.
Die Verbindungsbahnen 5 weisen außerdem Einlagen 6 aus einem etwas weniger flexiblen Material, z. B. in Form einer dünnen Kunststoffplatte, auf. Diese Einlagen 6 sorgen dafür, daß, wie in Figur 2 deutlich sichtbar ist, die U-förmigen Taschen 3 einen ebenen Boden in Form dieser Einlagen 6 haben. Hierdurch werden die U-förmigen Taschen nicht nur durch die Abstandhalter 10, welche die Trennbahnen 4 auf Abstand halten, sondern auch durch diese Einlagen 6 offengehalten.The connecting webs 5 also have deposits 6 made of a somewhat less flexible material, e.g. B. in the form of a thin plastic plate. These inserts 6 ensure that, as is clearly visible in FIG. 2, the U-shaped pockets 3 have a flat bottom in the form of these inserts 6. As a result, the U-shaped pockets are not only kept open by the spacers 10, which keep the separating sheets 4 at a distance, but also by these inserts 6.
Die Einlagen können sich in der Tiefe über die gesamte Länge der Verbindungsbahn 5 hinweg erstrecken, sie können jedoch auch nur relativ kurz sein und sich im wesentlichen auf den seitlichen Öffnungsbereich der Taschen 3 beschränken.The inlays can extend in depth over the entire length of the connecting track 5, but they can also be only relatively short and are essentially limited to the lateral opening area of the pockets 3.
Vorzugsweise ist die Breite der Verbindungsbahn 5, gemessen zwischen den Nahtbereichen 7 und einschließlich der frei herabh ngenden Bereiche 8 und des Abschnittes, der unter der Einlage 6 liegt, mindestens etwa doppelt so groß wie die Breite der Einlage 6. Dies bedeutet, daß die Einlage 6, auch wenn sie fest mit der Verbindungsbahn 5 verbunden und z. B. in eine Tasche der Verbindungsbahn 5 eingelegt ist, hochgefaltet und flach zwischen die Trennbahnen 4 gelegt werden kann. Figur 3 zeigt anschaulich, wie die Breite der Taschen 3 variiert werden kann, indem die Trennbahnen 4 mehr oder weniger auseinandergezogen oder zusammengeschoben werden, was sich zum einen durch Änderung der Länge der Abstandhalter 10 ergeben könnte, zum anderen aber auch durch die entsprechenden Abmessungen der in die Taschen 3 eingeschobenen Gegenstände.Preferably, the width of the connecting web 5, measured between the seam regions 7 and including the freely hanging regions 8 and the section which lies under the insert 6, is at least approximately twice as large as the width of the insert 6. This means that the insert 6, even if they are firmly connected to the connecting track 5 and z. B. is inserted into a pocket of the connecting web 5, folded up and laid flat between the separating webs 4. Figure 3 shows clearly how the width of the pockets 3 can be varied by pulling the separating sheets 4 more or less apart or pushed together, which could result on the one hand by changing the length of the spacers 10, but on the other hand also by the corresponding dimensions of the objects inserted into the pockets 3.
Zwischen je einem Paar von Trennbahnen 4, die durch Verbindungsbahnen 5 miteinander verbunden sind, und dem nächsten Paar von Trennbahnen 4, die ebenfalls durch ein Paar von Verbindungsbahnen 5 verbunden sind, können noch zusätzliche Trennwände 11 eingeschoben werden, die z. B. aus Schaumstoff oder einem anderen Polstermaterial bestehen.Between each pair of partitions 4, which are connected by connecting lines 5, and the next pair of partitions 4, which are also connected by a pair of connecting lines 5, additional partitions 11 can be inserted, which, for. B. consist of foam or another cushioning material.
Figur 4 zeigt in einer Seitenansicht, daß der Boden in Form der Einlagen 6 der einzelnen Taschen 3 nicht notwendigerweise horinzontal verlaufen muß, sondern auch ansteigend oder abfallend geneigt verlaufen kann. Dies kann das Be- und Entladen von Gegenstä nden seitlich in die stirnseitig offenen, U-förmigen Taschen 3 hinein und aus diesen heraus erleichtern.FIG. 4 shows in a side view that the bottom in the form of the inserts 6 of the individual pockets 3 does not necessarily have to run horizontally, but can also slope upwards or downwards. This can facilitate the loading and unloading of objects laterally into the U-shaped pockets 3, which are open at the end, and out of them.
In Figur 5 ist zwischen zwei Trennbahnen 4 eine Verbindungsbahn 15 dargestellt, die nicht in Form eines "U" an diesen Verbindungsbahnen angebracht ist, sondern die im wesentlichen S- förmig verläuft. In Beispiel der Figur 5 hat diese Verbindungsbahn 15 einen im wesentlichen vertikalen Verlauf, sie könnte jedoch, ebenso wie die U-förmig angebrachten Verbindungsbahnen 5 auch horizontal oder geneigt verlaufen. Bei den in Figur 5 nur schematisch und teilweise dargestellten Trennbahnen 4 können außerdem zusätzlich zu der vertikalen Verbindungsbahn 15, die zur Ausbildung von U-förmigen Taschen führt, deren Boden oder "U- Quersteg" in Form der Verbindungsbahn 15 vertikal verläuft, auch noch zusätzlich die etwa horizontal oder geneigte Verbindungsbahnen, z. B. die U-förmigen Verbindungsbahnen 5, vorgesehen werden, so daß U-förmige Taschen mit einem entsprechenden horizontalen oder geneigten Boden ausgebildet werden, wie sie in Figur 1 dargestellt sind, die jedoch zusätzlich noch einen vertikalen Abschluß in Form der Verbindungsbahn 15 haben.In FIG. 5, a connecting track 15 is shown between two separating tracks 4, which is not attached to these connecting tracks in the form of a “U”, but rather runs essentially S-shaped. In the example in FIG. 5, this connecting track 15 has an essentially vertical course, but it could, like the U-shaped connecting tracks 5, also run horizontally or inclined. In the separating webs 4, which are shown only schematically and partially in FIG. 5, in addition to the vertical connecting web 15, which leads to the formation of U-shaped pockets, the bottom or “U-transverse web” in the form of the connecting web 15 runs vertically, in addition the approximately horizontal or inclined connecting tracks, for. B. the U-shaped connecting webs 5 are provided so that U-shaped pockets are formed with a corresponding horizontal or inclined bottom, as shown in Figure 1, but which also have a vertical closure in the form of the connecting web 15.
Figur 6 zeigt anschaulich wie in die entsprechenden U-förmigen Taschen von beiden offenen Stirnseiten her Gegenstände G eingeschoben werden können, wobei die flexible Verbindungsbahn 15 sich in diesem Fall S-förmig den Konturen der Gegenstände G anpaßt. Die Ausbildung dieser Kontur wird auch durch das S-förmige Annähen, Anschweißen oder Ankleben der Verbindungsbahn 15 erleichtert.FIG. 6 clearly shows how objects G can be inserted into the corresponding U-shaped pockets from both open end faces, the flexible connecting path 15 in this case adapting to the contours of the objects G in an S-shape. The formation of this contour is also facilitated by the S-shaped sewing, welding or gluing of the connecting web 15.
Figur 7 zeigt eine weitere Ausführungsform der vorliegenden Erfindung mit einem zusammenklappbaren Rahmen 20. Der Rahmen 20 steht auf einem flachen Kasten 21 und trägt eine Reihe von Trennbahnen 4, die durch Verbindungsbahnen 5 miteinander verbunden sind und so jeweils U-förmige Taschen bilden. Bei dem hier verwendeten Rahmen sind diese Taschen sowohl von oben als auch von der Stirnseite her offen. Die übrigen Seiten des Rahmens können aber auch durch weitere flexible Bahnmaterialien oder Platten abgedeckt sein, ebenso wie auch die für das Be- und Entladen offenen Seiten grundsätzlich durch einen Vorhang oder eine sonstige flexible Materialbahn oder eine Platte verschlossen werden können.FIG. 7 shows a further embodiment of the present invention with a collapsible frame 20. The frame 20 stands on a flat box 21 and carries one Row of separating webs 4, which are connected to one another by connecting webs 5 and thus each form U-shaped pockets. In the frame used here, these pockets are open both from above and from the front. The other sides of the frame can, however, also be covered by further flexible sheet materials or plates, just as the sides open for loading and unloading can in principle be closed by a curtain or another flexible material sheet or plate.
Die einzelnen Elemente sind in den Figuren 7 bis 11, welche diese Ausführungsform betreffen, nur grob schematisch und nicht im Detail wiedergegeben. In diesem Fall sind außerdem alle Trennwände 4, mit Ausnahme der ersten und der letzten Trennbahn, jeweils auf beiden Seiten über eine Verbindungsbahn 5 mit der auf dieser Seite nächstliegenden Trennbahn 4 verbunden, so daß alle U-förmigen Taschen 3 bei dieser Ausführungsform fest zusammenhängen.The individual elements in Figures 7 to 11, which relate to this embodiment, are only shown roughly schematically and not in detail. In this case, all partitions 4, with the exception of the first and the last parting line, are also connected on both sides via a connecting line 5 to the next parting line 4 on this side, so that all U-shaped pockets 3 are firmly connected in this embodiment.
Figur 8 zeigt ein Detail der Aufhängung der Stangen 22 in einer entsprechenden Halterung 23, wobei, wie bereits zuvor beschrieben, die einzelnen Trennbahnen 4 in ihren oberen Eckbereichen Ösen aufweisen, die auf die Stangen 22 aufgezogen sind. Wie man erkennt, ist die Stange 22 nach oben herausnehmbar in ihrer Halterung 23 eingehängt, wobei Verriegelungselemente, die die Stange 22 während des Transportes der Vorrichtung in der Halterung 23 sichern, hier nicht dargestellt sind.FIG. 8 shows a detail of the suspension of the rods 22 in a corresponding holder 23, wherein, as already described above, the individual separating sheets 4 have eyelets in their upper corner regions, which are pulled onto the rods 22. As can be seen, the rod 22 is detachably suspended upward in its holder 23, locking elements which secure the rod 22 in the holder 23 during transport of the device are not shown here.
Wie in Figur 9 dargestellt, kann dementsprechend die gesamte Gruppe von U-förmigen Taschen, die an zwei gegenüberliegenden Stangen 22 aufgehängt sind, in dem Rahmen 20 angehoben bzw. aus den Halterungen 23, die an Rahmenteilen 24 (siehe Figur 10) befestigt sind, herausgehoben werden. Wenn die Stangen 22 aus ihren Halterungen 23 herausgehoben sind, können die einzelnen Seitenelemente 24 des Rahmens 20 gegeneinander bewegt werden, wie es in Figur 10 dargestellt ist. Am einfachsten geht man in der Weise vor, daß zunächst die Stangen 22 mit den daran hängenden (in diesem Fall im allgemeinen leeren) Taschen 3 in die in Figur 9 dargestellte Position angehoben werden, woraufhin die Rahmenelemente 24, die in Figur 10 erkennbar sind, zunächst etwas nach außen weggeklappt werden und anschließend die Stangen 22 mit den daran hängenden Trennbahnen 4 in den Kasten 21 abgesenkt weden. Da die Trennbahnen 4 und die Verbindungsbahnen 5 aus einem flexiblen Material bestehen, legen sich die U-förmigen Taschen 3 dabei in dem Kasten 21 gefaltet übereinander. Wenn alle Taschen 3 mit den Stangen 22 in dem Kasten 21 aufgenommen sind, werden die Rahmenteile 24, wie in Figur 10 und Figur 11 dargestellt, nach innen eingeklappt, so daß die gesamte Vorrichtung dann sehr kompakt zusammengelegt ist und besser verstaut und transportiert werden kann. Figur 12 zeigt schließlich noch eine Ausführungsform, die derjenigen in Figur 1 sehr ähnlich ist mit dem einzigen Unterschied, daß jede zweite der Trennwände 4 über die vorn erkennbare, stirnseitige Kante hinaus verlängert ist und dadurch eine Klappe 13 aus einem flexiblen, aber genügend steifen Material aufweist, um in Höhe der vorderen Kante der benachbarten Trennbahn 4 scharnierartig herumgeklappt zu werden und so die offene Stirnseite der U- förmigen Taschen nach dem Beladen zu verschließen. Die "Klappe" oder Lasche 13 könnte auch an der Verbindungsbahn 5 bzw. 15 anngelenkt sein und dementsprechend nach oben oder unten geklappt werden.Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 9, the entire group of U-shaped pockets, which are suspended from two opposite rods 22, can be raised in the frame 20 or out of the holders 23, which are fastened to frame parts 24 (see FIG. 10). be lifted out. When the rods 22 are lifted out of their holders 23, the individual side elements 24 of the frame 20 can be moved against one another, as shown in FIG. 10. The simplest procedure is to first raise the rods 22 with the hanging (in this case generally empty) pockets 3 into the position shown in FIG. 9, whereupon the frame elements 24, which can be seen in FIG. 10, are first folded out a little and then the rods 22 are lowered into the box 21 with the separating tracks 4 attached to them. Since the separating sheets 4 and the connecting sheets 5 are made of a flexible material, the U-shaped pockets 3 are folded one above the other in the box 21. When all the pockets 3 with the rods 22 are accommodated in the box 21, the frame parts 24, as shown in FIG. 10 and FIG. 11, are folded inwards, so that the entire device is then folded very compactly and can be better stored and transported . Finally, FIG. 12 shows an embodiment which is very similar to that in FIG. 1 with the only difference that every second one of the partitions 4 is extended beyond the front edge which can be seen at the front and thereby a flap 13 made of a flexible but sufficiently rigid material has, in order to be folded up like a hinge at the level of the front edge of the adjacent separating track 4 and thus to close the open end face of the U-shaped pockets after loading. The "flap" or tab 13 could also be articulated on the connecting track 5 or 15 and accordingly folded up or down.
Die Kante der Nachbartrennbahn 4 und auch die Klappe 13 können jeweils z. B. mit Klettmaterial ausgestattet sein, damit die Klappe 13 nach dem Verschließen auch im geschlossenen Zustand bleibt. The edge of the neighboring racetrack 4 and the flap 13 can each z. B. be equipped with Velcro material so that the flap 13 remains after closing even in the closed state.
