Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a multi-purpose palette.
  • palette supports made of various materials, such as wood, metal or material plastic, which are intended to support loads so that they can be lifted and move them easily using a forklift.
  • Such pallets are most often formed by an upper floor and a lower floor, joined by studs to allow passage between them forks of forklifts or pallet trucks. It is also known to carry out the lower floor in the form of sleepers connecting the lower parts of different studs.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a pallet which can be indifferently be placed on the ground to receive the forks of a forklift, serving as a support for a plurality of containers, such as those known as Galia bins, possibly superimposed in several layers, or to be placed on top of a plurality of such containers to hold them in place, being in the same position as the lower pallet or in the inverted position.
  • a pallet which can be indifferently be placed on the ground to receive the forks of a forklift, serving as a support for a plurality of containers, such as those known as Galia bins, possibly superimposed in several layers, or to be placed on top of a plurality of such containers to hold them in place, being in the same position as the lower pallet or in the inverted position.
  • the pallet according to the invention is also such that if the floor is applied lower pallet against the lower floor of another pallet, these two pallets do not can move laterally relative to each other.
  • the pallet according to the invention is characterized in that it comprises in combination of a ledge on at least part of the periphery of its upper floor and a plurality of bosses on the underside of its lower floor, arranged in such a way that two pallets placed above and below hold laterally a stack of containers such as Galia bins and two pallets placed on the floor lower against lower floor are integral with lateral forces.
  • the bosses are arranged at the four corners of the lower floor as well as for example along at least some of the crosspieces connecting the studs to constitute the lower floor.
  • the spaces left between the bosses are located at the right container walls of different sizes that can be stacked on the pallet so as to hold them laterally.
  • the object palette of patent allows easy use of pallet trucks while avoiding any risk of tilting of the containers between the crosspieces which constitute the lower floor of a pallet placed above a stack of containers.
  • the pallets currently used which do not include bosses, have lower cross members of a thickness which is sufficiently reduced to be able to be crossed by the pallet truck rollers, while being sufficiently resistant to withstand the mechanical stresses which are imposed on the pallet.
  • the present invention also relates to a multipurpose pallet of the type comprising a lower floor composed of crosspieces and an upper floor, which are joined by studs, characterized in that it has in combination, the following characteristics: the upper face of the upper floor has a rim vertical on at least part of its periphery, the underside of the lower floor is provided with bosses, the arrangement of which is such that a) all of these bosses can come to be placed inside the space delimited by the edge of the upper floor of a identical pallet, b) the bosses are located in places which allow both the pallet is placed at the top of a plurality of receptacles, such as those known as "Galia bins", so as to avoid any lateral displacement of these, and that one can place one on top of the other two identical pallets in a position where their two lower floors are pressed against each other, the bosses overlapping each other to avoid any lateral movement of a pallet by relative to each other, at least some of the sleepers in the lower floor have a
  • the pallet in terms of injection molded plastic, for example high density polyethylene or another material with similar mechanical characteristics.
  • the crosspieces which deform to allow the passage of the pallet truck rollers do not have, at this point, bosses at their bottom and have their bevelled edges, so as to allow the engagement of the pallet truck rollers and to be able to deform and flex when passing of said rollers.
  • the middle part of the cross member bends in its together, enough to allow passage of the pallet truck roller, but without that it is mandatory that the central part of the cross comes to bear on the ground.
  • bosses of lower height which allow a deformation of the sleepers downwards which, although of lesser importance, nevertheless allows the passage of the pebbles pallet trucks, due to the bevels which are made on the upper edges of the sleepers.
  • the pallet according to the invention can be used very varied by ensuring the lateral maintenance of a stack of pallets and receptacles such as Galia bins, while also allowing the use of pallet trucks including rollers can despite the bosses engage on the sleepers of the lower floor.
  • FIG. 1 Four pallets according to the invention have been shown in FIG. 1, stacked with on top of each other, the lower floor 1 of which is made up of crosspieces 2 which have bosses 3 at their lower part.
  • the lower 1 and upper 5 floors are joined by a series of studs 8.
  • FIG. 2 shows another embodiment of the pallet according to the invention.
  • FIG. 3 shows diagrammatically how four pallets A, B, C, D as described with reference to Figures 1 or 2 can be used to maintain and transport stacks of smaller containers, such as example of Galia containers.
  • the bosses arranged at the bottom of a palette have shapes and positions such that it is possible to apply one on top of the other two pallets B, C so that the bosses of a pallet are located between the bosses of the other pallet which ensures lateral support of the two pallets B, C one compared to each other.
  • FIG. 3 shows a second stack of Galia 9 containers which as in the first stack are held at the top by the edge of head of a pallet D which has been turned over like pallet B.
  • the bosses in question are also used when a pallet is placed on top a stack of Galia containers in the same orientation as pallets A and C, laterally hold the Galia trays in the stack.
  • the bosses 3 are arranged at inside the upper ends of the walls of Galia tanks.
  • the shape and arrangement of the bosses placed below the floor lower may be different from those shown provided that a apart from the lateral support of the different types of containers that must be stacked and on the other hand to be able to join laterally two pallets applied one against the other in the inverted position.
  • bevels 4a on both sides of the crosspiece 4 which is made of a plastic material such as high density polyethylene having sufficient capacity for deformation to allow the lateral parts of the cross member to collapse in the direction of the ground when the roller of the pallet truck engages on the cross member as shown in 10 a , 10 b , 10 c in FIG. 4.
  • Figure 5 is a right view of Figure 4, the upper floor 5 of the pallet, the studs 8, the bosses 3 and the cross 4 with its bevels 4 a .
  • FIG. 6 shows another embodiment of the invention in which the edges of the cross-member 4 have, in addition to the bevel 4 , a recess 4 c placed for example at their lower part to give them a greater capacity for flexibility down to facilitate the crossing of the cross 4 by the rollers of the pallet truck.
  • This embodiment achieves a compromise between the lateral support made by the bosses 3a and constraints that are imposed on cross when passing pebbles constraints are limited by the support bosses 3 was on the floor.
  • FIG. 8 which is a top view, there are in section the studs 8 and the cross member 4 which is provided in the vicinity of its ends with two notches 4 d which facilitate the downward bending of the lateral parts of the cross member when the pallet truck roller passes.
