Abstract

A container has a horizontal frame (5, 6) linked by upright door battens (4). The battens are supported on one or both sides by transverse diagonal strips (14, 15) linked (Z) by a V-shaped interlocking notch fitting.

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen von einer seiner Seitenwände her be- und entladbaren Faltwandcontainer mit mindestens einem wegnehmbaren und über die Seitenwanderstreckung verstellbaren Stützteil zwecks kraftschlüssiger Verbindung zwischen Boden- und Deckenteil des Containers und mit mindestens zwei Türfeldern für zwei Seitentüren, die jeweils aus zwei oder mehreren über Scharniere miteinander verbundenen Türflügeln gebildet sind.The invention relates to one of its Foldable wall container with side walls that can be loaded and unloaded at least one removable and on the sidewall stretch adjustable support part for the purpose of non-positive Connection between the bottom and top part of the container and with at least two door panels for two side doors that each consisting of two or more hinged together connected door wings are formed.

Durch die typische Ausbildung eines Faltwandcontainers, nämlich dass er an einer seiner Längsseiten geöffnet werden kann, wird zwar für die Beladung und die Entladung ein Vorteil erzielt, jedoch muss im Vergleich zu einem anders aufgebauten Container eine erhebliche Herabsetzung der Festigkeit und Steifigkeit in Kauf genommen werden. Dies macht sich insbesondere dann bemerkbar, wenn die Ladung nicht großflächig über die Bodenfläche des Containers verteilt werden kann, sondern bedingt durch die Eigenart der Ladung nur eine relativ kleine Grundfläche erheblich belastet wird. In der Praxis hat man sich bislang mit Verspannungselementen geholfen, beispielsweise hat man vor dem Schließen einer Seitentür dort eine Kette eingehängt. Auf diese Art und Weise kann, sofern die Kette hinlänglich groß dimensioniert worden ist, eine gewisse Abhilfe geschaffen werden. Allerdings sind dadurch aber auch zusätzliche Montagearbeiten erforderlich, die nicht nur störend, sondern durchaus auch Gefahr bringend sind.Due to the typical design of a folding wall container, namely that it can be opened on one of its long sides can be an advantage for loading and unloading achieved, but must be compared to a different one Container a significant reduction in strength and Rigidity can be accepted. This is clear especially noticeable when the cargo is not large can be spread over the floor area of the container, but due to the nature of the cargo only one relative small footprint is significantly burdened. In practice it has so far you have been using tension elements, for example you have there before closing a side door hung a chain. In this way, if the chain has been sufficiently large, one some remedy will be created. However, this is but additional assembly work is also required, which is not are only annoying, but also dangerous.

Auch eine besondere Verstärkung oder Versteifung der Tür kommt zur Lösung des Problems nicht in Frage, weil dies bedeuten würde, dass keine Scharniertüren verwendet werden könnten. Scharniertüren sind zur Aufnahme der entsprechenden Kräfte von Hause aus nicht geeignet, wohingegen Türen mit nur einem Türflügel voraussetzen, dass die erforderlichen Freiräume seitlich vom Container zum Be- und Entladen zur Verfügung ständen.A special reinforcement or stiffening of the door also comes to solve the problem out of the question because that mean would be that no hinged doors could be used. Hinged doors are designed to absorb the appropriate forces from Not suitable from home, whereas doors with only one Door leaves require the necessary clearance available to the side of the container for loading and unloading stands.

Zur Beseitigung der vorangehend genannten Nachteile wird vorgeschlagen, bei einem Faltwandcontainer der eingangs genannten Art für jedes Türfeld mindestens eine Querversteifung vorzu-sehen, die jeweils aus einzelnen, an den Innen- oder Außen-flächen der Flügel der Seitentür angebrachten Druckstäben gebildet ist, die im geschlossenen Zustand der Tür im Eingriff miteinander angeordnet sind.To eliminate the disadvantages mentioned above proposed, in the case of a folding wall container mentioned type for each door panel at least one To provide cross stiffening, each from individual to the Inside or outside surfaces of the side door sash attached pressure rods is formed in the closed State of the door are arranged in engagement with each other.

Die Erfindung wird nachstehend anhand der Zeichnung beispielsweise erläutert.

Fig. 1
zeigt eine seitliche Ansicht einer dreiteiligen Tür mit einer Querversteifung gemäß der Erfindung.
Fig. 2
zeigt eine vergrößerte Darstellung gemäß Z nach Fig. 1.
Fig. 3
und 4 zeigen Querschnittsansichten gemäß A-A der Fig. 2.
The invention is explained below with reference to the drawing, for example.
Fig. 1
shows a side view of a three-part door with a cross bracing according to the invention.
Fig. 2
shows an enlarged view according to Z of FIG. 1st
Fig. 3
and 4 show cross-sectional views according to AA of FIG. 2.

In Fig. 1 ist eine Tür mit drei Flügeln 10, 11 und 12 gezeigt, die um vertikale Schwenkachsen 111 und 112 zueinander verschwenkbar sind, wie dies bei Falttüren für Faltwandcontainer üblicherweise der Fall ist.1 shows a door with three leaves 10, 11 and 12, that about vertical pivot axes 111 and 112 to each other are pivotable, as is the case with folding doors for folding wall containers is usually the case.

In Fig. 1 ist die Tür in geschlossener Position gezeigt, wobei ein oberer Längsholm 5 des Faltwandcontainers und ein unterer Längsholm 6 des Faltwandcontainers jeweils über die Längserstreckung des Containers ausgebildet sind. Mit 4 ist ein vertikaler Stützteil bezeichnet, der das Türfeld der Faltwandtür 10, 11 und 12 zur rechten Seite hin begrenzt, jedoch nicht geeignet ist, nennenswerte Vertikalkräfte aufzunehmen, die der Versteifung des Faltwandcontainers dienen könnten. Dieser Stützteil 4 soll nämlich bei Blickrichtung nach Fig. 1 von links nach rechts und umgekehrt verschiebbar sein, um beim Be- und Entladen die Lasten besser handhaben zu können.In Fig. 1 the door is shown in the closed position, wherein an upper longitudinal beam 5 of the folding wall container and a lower one Longitudinal beam 6 of the folding wall container each over the Longitudinal extension of the container are formed. With 4 is a vertical support part called the door panel of the Folding door 10, 11 and 12 limited to the right side, but is not suitable, significant vertical forces to record, which serve to stiffen the folding wall container could. This support part 4 is namely when looking 1 from left to right and vice versa to better handle the loads when loading and unloading can.

Gemäß der Erfindung ist nun eine Querversteifung vorgesehen, die diagonal zum Türfeld verläuft und von links unten nach rechts oben das Türfeld überbrückt. Diese Querversteifung besteht aus drei zueinander beweglichen Druckstäben 13, 14 und 15, die an der Innenseite der Flügel 10, 11 und 12 der Tür befestigt sind, so dass sie die entsprechenden Schwenkbewegungen der Flügel mitmachen können. In Fig. 1 ist die geschlossene Lage der Tür gezeigt, so dass die Elemente 13, 14 und 15 miteinander im Eingriff sind.According to the invention, a transverse stiffening is now provided, which runs diagonally to the door panel and from bottom left to bridged the door field at the top right. This cross bracing consists of three mutually movable pressure rods 13, 14 and 15 on the inside of the wings 10, 11 and 12 of the door are attached so that they have the appropriate pivoting movements the wing can participate. 1 is the Closed position of the door shown so that the elements 13, 14th and 15 are engaged with each other.

Fig. 2 zeigt in vergrößerter Darstellung die Eingriffslage der beiden Druckstäbe 14 und 15 zueinander. Der Druckstab 14 hat eine erweiterte Endstirnfläche und kann in einer Ausnehmung den Endteil des anderen Druckstabs 15 aufnehmen.Fig. 2 shows an enlarged view of the engagement position of the two pressure rods 14 and 15 to each other. The pressure rod 14 has an extended end face and can be in a recess take up the end part of the other push rod 15.

Die Fig. 3 und 4 zeigen von oben aus betrachtet, die Eingriffslage der beiden Druckstäbe 14 und 15 in geschlossener und offener Lage.3 and 4 show, viewed from above, the Engagement position of the two pressure rods 14 and 15 in the closed and open location.

Die in den Fig. 1 bis 4 gezeigte Ausführungsform basiert auf Druckstäben. Es liegt im Rahmen der vorliegenden Erfindung, . diese Druckstäbe durch Zugstäbe zu ersetzen.The embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 is based on Pressure rods. It is within the scope of the present invention , to replace these compression rods with tension rods.
