Abstract

The pallet (20) forms part of an assembly with a holder (4) attached to its underside. The holder has a number of cavities (12) to receive any liquids spilled from containers (6) being handled, with the positions of the cavities corresponding to the positions of the pallet's feet. The holder also has side walls (16) that extend over the sides of the pallet and have lugs (32) to hold them in place. The pallet has ribs (30) between upper and lower surfaces forming channels for handling vehicle forks, and apertures (28) for liquids to pass through.

Description

L'invention concerne un ensemble de rétention de liquide, destiné en particulier à permettre de transporter des récipients contenant un liquide susceptible de couler.The invention relates to a liquid retention assembly, in particular for carrying containers containing a liquid capable of sinking.

On connaît déjà différents ensembles permettant de remplir cette fonction. En particulier, US-A-5 020 667 décrit un ensemble, du type "bac palette", comprenant une cuve de rétention, formant un réceptacle ouvert, particulièrement robuste. Ladite cuve de rétention présente des pieds creux et des logements disposés entre les pieds creux, lesdits logements étant délimités en partie supérieure par un plan d'appui duquel font saillie les pieds. Le plan d'appui est destiné à reposer sur une fourche insérée entre les pieds afin de manutentionner ledit ensemble. La cuve de rétention présente en outre un rebord à la partie supérieure duquel repose un plateau, et plus précisément un caillebotis, destiné à supporter notamment des fûts. L'ensemble comprend en outre un support tubulaire amovible s'étendant sensiblement entre un pied central et le caillebotis.We already know different sets to fulfill this function. In particular, US Pat. No. 5,020,667 describes an assembly, of the "pallet tray" type, comprising a retention tank, forming an open receptacle, which is particularly robust. Said holding tank has hollow feet and housings disposed between the hollow feet, said housing being delimited in the upper part by a support plane which project the feet. The support plane is intended to rest on a fork inserted between the feet to handle said assembly. The holding tank further has a flange at the top of which rests a tray, and more specifically a grating, intended to support including drums. The assembly further comprises a removable tubular support extending substantially between a central foot and the grating.

Toutefois, cet ensemble est relativement onéreux et lourd.
L'invention vise à réduire le coût d'un tel ensemble, tout en facilitant le transport des récipients. Pour ce faire, l'invention propose que :

  • ledit plateau soit intégré à une palette comprenant en outre des pieds faisant saillie de la surface inférieure dudit plateau,
  • les pieds de la cuve de rétention et les pieds de la palette soient disposés en correspondance, de sorte que les pieds de la palette s'insèrent à l'intérieur des pieds de la cuve et viennent en appui sur la base des pieds de la cuve,
  • les pieds de la cuve de rétention et les pieds de la palette fassent saillie sensiblement de la même hauteur, respectivement par rapport au plan d'appui et au plateau, de telle sorte que la surface inférieure de la palette vienne sensiblement en appui contre le plan d'appui de la cuve de rétention.
However, this set is relatively expensive and heavy.
The invention aims to reduce the cost of such an assembly, while facilitating the transport of containers. To do this, the invention proposes that:
  • said plate is integrated in a pallet further comprising feet protruding from the lower surface of said plate,
  • the feet of the holding tank and the feet of the pallet are arranged in correspondence, so that the feet of the pallet are inserted inside the feet of the tank and rest on the base of the feet of the tank ,
  • the feet of the holding tank and the feet of the pallet protrude substantially from the same height, respectively relative to the support plane and to the plate, so that the lower surface of the pallet comes to bear substantially against the plane support of the holding tank.

Ainsi, la résistance structurelle de l'ensemble est constituée par la palette. Elle supporte les récipients sur son plateau, elle repose sur le sol par l'intermédiaire de ses différents pieds ou sur une fourche par l'intermédiaire de son plateau. Par conséquent, l'essentiel des efforts est directement supporté par la palette. La cuve n'ayant alors à supporter que le poids du liquide qui s'y est écoulé, elle peut constituer une simple enveloppe moins résistante et donc moins onéreuse et moins lourde. De plus, les déformations de l'ensemble sont réduites, ce qui facilite encore le transport.Thus, the structural strength of the assembly is constituted by the pallet. It supports the containers on its tray, it rests on the ground by means of its different feet or on a fork through its tray. Therefore, most of the effort is directly supported by the pallet. The tank then having to bear only the weight of the liquid that has passed, it can be a simple envelope less resistant and therefore less expensive and less heavy. In addition, the deformations of the set are reduced, which further facilitates transport.

Avantageusement, les pieds de la palette s'insèrent à l'intérieur de l'essentiel au moins des pieds de la cuve de rétention, et de préférence à l'intérieur de chacun des pieds de la cuve de rétention.Advantageously, the feet of the pallet fit inside the essential at least the feet of the holding tank, and preferably inside each of the feet of the holding tank.

Les efforts supportés par la palette sont ainsi mieux répartis.The efforts supported by the pallet are thus better distributed.

Selon une caractéristique avantageuse, l'invention propose en outre que le rebord de la cuve de rétention s'étende au-delà de la surface supérieure du plateau.According to an advantageous characteristic, the invention further proposes that the rim of the holding tank extends beyond the upper surface of the tray.

Ainsi, le plateau peut être disposé plus près des points d'application des efforts sur la fourche et sur le sol, tout en augmentant la capacité de rétention de la cuve.Thus, the tray can be placed closer to the points of application of the efforts on the fork and on the ground, while increasing the retention capacity of the tank.

Afin d'accroître la résistance de la palette, l'invention propose en outre que la palette présente des nervures s'étendant entre sa surface supérieure et sa surface inférieure.In order to increase the strength of the pallet, the invention further proposes that the pallet has ribs extending between its upper surface and its lower surface.

Afin d'améliorer encore la robustesse de la palette, l'invention propose que certains au moins des pieds de la palette comprennent une pluralité de plots.In order to further improve the robustness of the pallet, the invention proposes that at least some of the legs of the pallet comprise a plurality of studs.

En outre, l'invention propose que les pieds et/ou le rebord de la cuve de rétention présente(nt) un profil ondulé, ce qui améliore sa rigidité.In addition, the invention proposes that the feet and / or the rim of the holding tank has (s) a corrugated profile, which improves its rigidity.

L'invention va apparaître encore plus clairement dans la description qui va suivre, faite en référence aux dessins annexés dans lesquels :

  • la figure 1 est une vue schématique en perspective éclatée d'un ensemble conforme à l'invention,
  • la figure 2 est une vue en coupe médiane de l'ensemble de la figure 1.
The invention will appear even more clearly in the description which follows, made with reference to the appended drawings in which:
  • FIG. 1 is a schematic perspective exploded view of an assembly according to the invention,
  • FIG. 2 is a view in median section of the assembly of FIG. 1.

Les figures 1 et 2 illustrent un ensemble 1 comprenant une palette structurée 2, particulièrement rigide et une cuve de rétention 4 enveloppant la palette 2.Figures 1 and 2 illustrate an assembly 1 comprising a structured pallet 2, particularly rigid and a holding tank 4 surrounding the pallet 2.

La palette 2 comporte essentiellement un plateau 20 et des pieds 22. Le plateau 20 présente une surface supérieure 20a et une surface inférieure 20b. Il comprend une plaque 26 transpercée par de larges ouvertures 28 s'étendant suivant la surface supérieure 20a et des nervures entrecroisées 30 s'étendant verticalement entre la surface supérieure 20a et la surface inférieure 20b. La plaque 26 est sensiblement plane et supporte des fûts 6 (un seul a été représenté). Le plateau 20 comprend également une nervure périphérique 36 s'étendant légèrement vers le haut par rapport à la surface supérieure 20a. Les pieds 22 sont creux et ont eux aussi des ouvertures 28. La plaque 26, les nervures 30, la nervure périphérique 26 et les pieds 22 forment une pièce monobloc obtenue directement de matière.The pallet 2 essentially comprises a plate 20 and feet 22. The plate 20 has an upper surface 20a and a lower surface 20b. It comprises a plate 26 pierced by wide openings 28 extending along the upper surface 20a and intersecting ribs 30 extending vertically between the upper surface 20a and the lower surface 20b. The plate 26 is substantially flat and supports drums 6 (only one has been shown). The tray 20 also includes a peripheral rib 36 extending slightly upwardly relative to the upper surface 20a. The feet 22 are hollow and also have openings 28. The plate 26, the ribs 30, the peripheral rib 26 and the feet 22 form a single piece obtained directly from material.

La cuve de rétention 4 forme un réceptacle pour liquide. Elle comprend, de matière, un plan d'appui 10 sensiblement horizontal, des pieds creux 12 en partie inférieure et des flancs latéraux sensiblement verticaux formant un rebord 16 en partie supérieure.The holding tank 4 forms a receptacle for liquid. It comprises, of material, a substantially horizontal support plane 10, hollow feet 12 in the lower part and substantially vertical lateral flanks forming a flange 16 in the upper part.

Les pieds 12 présentent à leur extrémité inférieure une base 14 sensiblement plane reposant sur le sol 8, tandis que le rebord 16 s'étend au-delà de la surface supérieure 2a du plateau et présente à son extrémité supérieure un décrochement formant une ceinture périphérique de rigidification 18. Les passages ménagés entre les pieds 12 permettent de recevoir une fourche de chariot élévateur venant soulever l'ensemble par l'intermédiaire du plan d'appui 10.The feet 12 have at their lower end a substantially flat base 14 resting on the ground 8, while the rim 16 extends beyond the upper surface 2a of the plate and has at its upper end a recess forming a peripheral belt of stiffening 18. The passages formed between the legs 12 make it possible to receive a fork of forklift coming to raise the assembly by means of the plane of support 10.

Les pieds 22 de la palette 2 sont disposés chacun en correspondance avec l'un des pieds 12 de la cuve de rétention 4, de manière à s'insérer à l'intérieur de chacun des pieds 12. Ils présentent, à leur extrémité inférieure, une base 24 venant au contact de la base 14 des pieds 12.The feet 22 of the pallet 2 are each arranged in correspondence with one of the legs 12 of the holding tank 4, so as to fit inside each of the legs 12. They have, at their lower end, a base 24 coming into contact with the base 14 of the feet 12.

La hauteur H22 des pieds 22, autrement dit la distance entre la base 24 et la surface inférieure 20b du plateau 20 est très légèrement supérieure, sensiblement égale, à la hauteur H12 des pieds 12, autrement dit la distance entre la base 14 et le plan d'appui 10. La surface inférieure 20b du plateau 20 est par conséquent sensiblement au contact du plan d'appui 10.The height H 22 of the feet 22, in other words the distance between the base 24 and the lower surface 20b of the plate 20 is very slightly greater, substantially equal to the height H 12 of the feet 12, ie the distance between the base 14 and the support plane 10. The lower surface 20b of the plate 20 is therefore substantially in contact with the support plane 10.

La cuve de rétention 4 est sensiblement moins rigide et robuste que la palette 2 sur laquelle elle est maintenue par l'intermédiaire d'ergots 32 faisant saillie sur le rebord 16 de la cuve 4 et venant en butée sur la nervure périphérique 36 de la palette.The holding tank 4 is substantially less rigid and robust than the pallet 2 on which it is held by means of lugs 32 protruding from the flange 16 of the tank 4 and abutting on the peripheral rib 36 of the pallet .

Par ailleurs, les pieds 22 de la cuve sont constitués d'une pluralité de plots 38, avantageusement deux, quatre ou six plots juxtaposés.Furthermore, the feet 22 of the tank consist of a plurality of pads 38, preferably two, four or six studs juxtaposed.

Tel qu'illustré à la figure 2, la cuve de rétention 4, en particulier les pieds 12 et le rebord 16, présente des ondulations 34 s'étendant verticalement.As shown in Figure 2, the holding tank 4, in particular the legs 12 and the flange 16, has vertically extending corrugations 34.

Le plateau 2 et la cuve de rétention 4 sont réalisés de préférence en polyéthylène.The tray 2 and the holding tank 4 are preferably made of polyethylene.
