Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Palette mit einem Fußteil und einer darauf angebrachten Plattform zur Aufnahme von Transportgut, Befestigungsmitteln, die als Ausnehmungen in die Plattformoberseite eingearbeitet sind, und mit Befestigungshilfsmitteln, wie Haken, Ösen oder Klemmvorrichtungen, wobei die Befestigungsmittel und die Befestigungshilfsmittel mit der Oberkante der Plattform bündig abschließen.The invention relates to a pallet with a foot and a platform mounted thereon for receiving cargo, fasteners which are incorporated as recesses in the platform top, and with fastening aids, such as hooks, eyes or clamping devices, wherein the fastening means and the fastening aid with the upper edge of Finish the platform flush.
Für den Transport und die Lagerung von Gütern werden Ladehilfsmittel eingesetzt, mit deren Hilfe die Güter aufgenommen, verladen, bewegt, ein- und umgelagert werden. Hierbei hat sich insbesondere die Palette bewährt, da sie sowohl einen rationellen Transport als auch eine optimale Lagerung von Gütern ermöglicht. Paletten sind für die Handhabung mit Flurförderfahrzeugen konstruiert. Das bedeutet, dass sie von der Gabel eines Flurförderzeugs unterfahren und angehoben werden können, um auf der Gabel liegend transportiert oder umgeladen zu werden.For the transport and storage of goods, loading equipment is used, with the help of which the goods are picked up, loaded, moved, transferred and relocated. Here, in particular, the range has been proven, as it allows both a rational transport and optimal storage of goods. Pallets are designed for handling with industrial trucks. This means that they can be driven under the fork of a truck and lifted to be transported or reloaded lying on the fork.
Nach dem Stand der Technik sind zahlreiche Ausführungsformen von Paletten bekannt, je nach Einsatzzweck kommen Flachpaletten, Flachpaletten mit Aufsetzrahmen, Gitterboxpaletten, Faß- oder Rungenpaletten zur Anwendung. Unter den genannten Ausführungsformen hat die Flachpalette die weitaus größte Verbreitung gefunden. Allseits bekannte Ausführungsformen sind beispielsweise die Europalette, die CP1-Palette oder die CP2-Palette. Diese Paletten bestehen aus einer Plattform - mit oder ohne Aufbauten - und einem Fußteil. Der Fußteil ist meist aus 2 oder 3 Füßen ausgebildet. Dabei unterscheidet man zwischen Paletten, deren Fußaufbau ein Unterfahren in Längs- als auch Querrichtung der Palette, d. h. von vier Seiten her, ermöglicht und solchen, deren Füße nur ein Unterfahren in Längsrichtung, d. h. von zwei Seiten her, erlaubt. Erstere sind unter dem Namen Vierwegepaletten bekannt, während letztere unter dem Namen Zweiwegepaletten geführt werden.According to the prior art numerous embodiments of pallets are known, depending on the purpose are flat pallets, flat pallets with Aufsetzrahmen, Gitterboxpaletten, Faß- or Rung pallets used. Among the mentioned embodiments, the flat pallet has found by far the largest distribution. Well-known embodiments are, for example, the Euro pallet, the CP1 range or the CP2 range. These pallets consist of a platform - with or without superstructures - and a footboard. The foot part is usually made up of 2 or 3 feet. A distinction is made between pallets whose Fußaufbau an underrunning in the longitudinal and transverse direction of the pallet, ie from four sides, allows and those whose feet only a driving in the longitudinal direction, ie from two sides allowed. The former are known as four-way pallets, while the latter are known as two-way pallets.
Für den Transport müssen auf Paletten gelagerte Güter in der Regel gesichert werden. Nach dem Stand der Technik wird für diese Aufgabe häufig Schrumpf- oder Stretchfolie eingesetzt, welche um die beladene Palette gestapelten Waren Halt gibt. Ein anderes Mittel zur Sicherung der Waren auf Paletten sind Gurte oder Bänder, mit denen die Transportgüter an der Palette festgelegt werden. Dieses Verfahren zur Ladungssicherung wird insbesondere bei Einzelgütern angewandt, die zum Transport auf Paletten gestellt werden. Bekannt sind auch Paletten, deren Plattformen mit Mitteln zur Befestigung des Transportgutes, wie haken, Ösen oder Klemmvorrichtungen ausgestattet sind. Schließlich umfassen die Hilfsmittel zur Sicherung der Waren auch Bretter, Latten und Leisten, welche um die geladenen Güter herum an der Palette befestigt werden.As a rule, goods stored on pallets must be secured for transport. According to the prior art, shrinkage or stretch film is often used for this task, which gives the goods stacked around the loaded pallet. Another means of securing the goods on pallets are straps or straps which fix the goods to be transported on the pallet. This method of load securing is used in particular for individual goods that are placed on pallets for transport. Also known are pallets whose platforms are equipped with means for fixing the cargo, such as hooks, eyes or clamps. Finally, the tools for securing the goods also include boards, slats and strips, which are attached to the pallets around the loaded goods.
Die Druckschrift WO 01/64533 A2 offenbart einen Transportpalette, die in der Grundausführung durch rampenartige Vertiefungen in der Palettenoberfläche gekennzeichnet ist. In einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung sind zusätzliche Hilfsmittel, wie beispielsweise Klammern für die in den Vertiefungen positionierten und mit Rollen versehenen Standfüße des Transportgutes, sowie mit der Oberfläche der Plattform verbundene Stricke und Haken zum Festzurren des Transportgutes vorgesehen. Während die rampenartigen Vertiefungen mit der Oberkante der Plattform bündig abschließen ragen die zusätzlichen Befestigungshilfsmittel über die Oberkante der Plattform hinaus.The publication WO 01/64533 A2 discloses a transport pallet, which is characterized in the basic version by ramp-like depressions in the pallet surface. In one embodiment of the invention, additional aids, such as brackets for positioned in the wells and provided with rollers feet of the cargo, and connected to the surface of the platform knitting and hooks for lashing the cargo are provided. While the ramp-like depressions protrude flush with the top edge of the platform the additional fastening aids beyond the top of the platform.
Die Druckschrift US-A-6006676 zeigt eine aus mehreren Einzelteilen zusammengefügte Transportpalette für Zweiräder, insbesondere Motorräder, wobei die Palette obenseitig keine flächige Plattform aufweist. Zur Aufnahme der Reifen des Zweirades sind bei dieser Palette Blöcke vorgesehen, deren Oberseite der Radform angepasst und mit den anderen Bestandteilen der Palette verbunden sind.The document US-A-6006676 shows a combined of several parts transport pallet for two-wheelers, especially motorcycles, the pallet on the top side has no flat platform. To accommodate the tires of the bicycle two blocks are provided in this range, the top of the wheel shape adapted and connected to the other components of the pallet.
Die Druckschrift US 6006675 beschreibt eine Transportvorrichtung mit einem Fußteil und einer darauf angebrachten Plattform, wobei es sich nicht um eine Vierwegepalette handelt, d. h. um eine Palette, in deren Fußteil die Gabeln eines Gabelstaplers von allen vier Seiten her eingefahren werden können. Desweiteren setzt die Beschickung der Vorrichtung, die zur Führung der Räder des Transportgutes in Längsrichtung verlaufende Führungsschienen aufweist, eine abschließende seitliche Bewegung des Transportgutes voraus. Nur durch die abschließende seitliche Bewegung des Transportgutes, senkrecht zu den Führungsschienen, gelangen die Räder des Transportgutes endgültig in die für die Transportsicherung vorgesehenen Ausnehmungen.The document US 6006675 describes a transport device with a foot part and a platform mounted thereon, which is not a four-way pallet, i. H. around a pallet, in the foot part of which the forks of a forklift can be moved in from all four sides. Furthermore, the loading of the device, which has for guiding the wheels of the cargo in the longitudinal direction extending guide rails, a final lateral movement of the cargo ahead. Only by the final lateral movement of the cargo, perpendicular to the guide rails, the wheels of the cargo reach the final provided for the transport safety recesses.
Die Druckschrift US 6126131 beschreibt eine Transportvorrichtung, die aus einer Vierwegepalette und vier auf der Oberfläche der Palette angebrachten Blöcken mit zylinderförmigen Ausnehmungen zur Aufnahme der Räder des Transportgutes besteht. Zur Verbringung des Transportgutes auf die Palette muss das Transportgut angehoben werden. Es ist nicht vorgesehen, dass das Transportgut auf die Oberseite der Palette gerollt wird bis die Räder in den dafür vorgesehenen Ausnehmungen zu liegen kommen. Dieser Nachteil ergibt sich daraus, dass die Ausnehmungen zur Aufnahme der Räder auf der Oberseite der Palette erhöht liegen.The document US 6126131 describes a transport device which consists of a four-way pallet and four mounted on the surface of the pallet blocks with cylindrical recesses for receiving the wheels of the cargo. To transport the cargo to the pallet, the cargo must be lifted. It is not intended that the cargo will be rolled onto the top of the pallet until the wheels are in place provided recesses come to rest. This disadvantage results from the fact that the recesses for receiving the wheels on the top of the pallet are increased.
Ein den genannten Mitteln zur Ladungssicherung gemeinsamer Nachteil besteht darin, dass sie zusätzlicher Hilfsmittel bedürfen, um die Waren zu sichern. Auch die Durchführung der Sicherungsmaßnahmen selbst erfordert manuellen Aufwand, der zusätzlich erbracht werden muss. Bei de Aufwendungen verursachen in nachteiliger Weise Zusatzkosten. Bei Paletten, bei denen die Mittel zur Befestigung des Transportgutes an der Plattform befestigt sind, ist ein Nachteil auch dadurch gegeben, dass sich diese Paletten schlecht stapeln lassen, da die genannten Hilfsmittel ein sattes Aufliegen der einen auf der anderen Palette verhindern.A disadvantage common to the means for securing cargo is that they require additional aids in order to secure the goods. The execution of the security measures themselves requires manual effort, which must be additionally provided. In de expenses cause disadvantageous additional costs. For pallets in which the means for fixing the cargo to be fixed to the platform, a drawback is also given by the fact that these pallets can be poorly stacked, as said aids prevent a rich resting one on the other pallet.
Hiervon ausgehend hat sich die Erfindung die Aufgabe gestellt, ein Ladehilfsmittel anzugeben, das diese Nachteile vermeidet und ohne Zuhilfenahme zusätzlicher Mittel sowohl einen sicheren Transport als auch eine sichere Lagerung von Gütern ermöglicht.On this basis, the object of the invention has been found to provide a loading aid which avoids these disadvantages and without the aid of additional means allows both safe transport and safe storage of goods.
Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, dass die Ausnehmungen auf der Plattformoberseite zumindest abschnittsweise die Form von Zylinderabschnitten aufweisen, und die Längsrichtung der Ausnehmungen auf der Plattformoberseite jeweils parallel zur Beschickungsrichtung der Palette verläuft und das Transportgut auf der Oberfläche der Plattform durch eine ausschließlich in Längsrichtung erfolgende Bewegung bis in Ausnehmungen rollbar ist, sowie dass das Fußteil als Vierwegepalette gestaltet ist und in Längs- als auch in Querrichtung der Palette von allen vier Seiten her unterfahrbar ist.According to the invention this object is achieved in that the recesses on the platform top at least partially have the shape of cylinder sections, and the longitudinal direction of the recesses on the platform top parallel to the feed direction of the pallet and the transported on the surface of the platform by taking place exclusively in the longitudinal direction Movement can be rolled up in recesses, as well as that the foot part is designed as a four-way pallet and in the longitudinal and in the transverse direction of the pallet is accessible from all four sides.
Die Erfindung geht von einer Flachpalette mit Fußteil und Plattform aus, wobei die Plattform mit Mitteln zur Befestigung des Transportgutes ausgestattet ist. Bei Paletten nach dem Stand der Technik umfassen diese Hilfsmittel, wie ausgeführt, Haken, Ösen, Klemmvorrichtungen, Bretter, Latten oder Leisten, mit deren Hilfe die Festlegung der Waren für den Transport erfolgt.The invention is based on a flat pallet with foot part and platform, wherein the platform is equipped with means for fixing the cargo. In prior art pallets, these aids, as stated, include hooks, grommets, clamps, boards, slats, or slats, with the aid of which the determination of the goods for transport takes place.
Abweichend zu der üblichen Anordnung dieser Hilfsmittel an oder auf der Plattform ist bei der vorgeschlagenen Palette - einer wesentlichen Überlegung entsprechend - vorgesehen, diese Hilfsmittel in die Plattform einzuarbeiten, so dass sie mit der Oberkante der Plattform bündig abschließen. Dadurch entfallen über die Außenmaße der Palette hinausreichende Elemente und folglich auch die hierdurch bedingte schlechte Stapelbarkeit.Notwithstanding the usual arrangement of these tools on or on the platform is in the proposed range - a substantial consideration accordingly - provided to incorporate these tools in the platform so that they are flush with the top of the platform. This eliminates beyond the outer dimensions of the pallet beyond reaching elements and consequently also the resulting poor stackability.
Die Einarbeitung der Befestigungsmittel erfordert in der Plattform die Ausbildung von Ausnehmungen, welche die Befestigungsmittel aufnehmen. Da diese Mittel jedoch bereits ab Fertigungswerk vorgesehen sind, erübrigt sich deren Anbringung beim Beladen und Sichern der auf der Palette abgestellten Waren. Der Wegfall diese Arbeitsvorganges vereinfacht und verkürzt den Sicherungsvorgang daher in vorteilhafter Weise.The incorporation of the fasteners requires in the platform the formation of recesses which receive the fasteners. However, since these funds are already provided from the factory, their attachment is unnecessary when loading and securing the goods parked on the pallet. The elimination of this operation simplifies and shortens the backup process therefore advantageously.
Bei einer bevorzugten Weiterbildung der vorgeschlagenen Palette bestehen die Mittel zur Sicherung der Waren einzig und allein in Ausnehmungen selbst, die in der Plattform angebracht sind und deren Tiefe vorzugsweise kleiner als die Dicke der Plattform ist. Paletten dieser Art eignen sich hervorragend zum Transport einzelner Güter, die auf Füßen oder ähnlich ausgebildeten Standflächen stehen, welche in die Ausnehmungen der Plattform eingreifen. In der Regel können Güter der genannten Art auf derart ausgebildeten Paletten transportiert werden, ohne daß weitere Maßnahmen zu deren Sicherung vorgesehen werden müssen. Die Ausnehmungen in der Plattform sind dabei so vorgegeben, daß sie formschlüssig zu den Standflächen des Transportgutes verlaufen.In a preferred embodiment of the proposed range, the means for securing the goods consist solely in recesses themselves, which are mounted in the platform and whose depth is preferably smaller than the thickness of the platform. Pallets of this type are ideal for transporting individual goods that are on feet or similar trained floor space, which engage in the recesses of the platform. In general, goods of the type mentioned can be transported on such trained pallets, without further measures must be provided to secure them. The recesses in the platform are predetermined so that they form fit to the footprints of the cargo.
Für die Fälle, in denen die übliche Dicke der Plattform nicht ausreichend ist, um Ausnehmungen geeigneter Tiefe anzubringen, ist vorgesehen, daß die Plattform wenigstens im Bereich der Ausnehmungen eine größere Dicke als bei Normalpaletten aufweist. Bei Paletten, deren Plattform aus einzelnen Brettern aufgebaut ist, bedeutet dies die Verwendung dickerer Bretter im genannten Bereich. Bei Paletten, deren Plattform aus einer Guß- oder Spritzmasse hergestellt ist, wird in entsprechender Weise wenigstens der Bereich mit den Ausnehmungen dicker ausgebildet. Die Anbringung von tieferen Ausnehmungen in der Plattform der Palette gewährleistet auch bei größeren und schweren Gütern einen sicheren Transport.For the cases in which the usual thickness of the platform is not sufficient to provide recesses of suitable depth, it is provided that the platform has a greater thickness at least in the region of the recesses than in normal pallets. For pallets, their platform of individual boards is constructed, this means the use of thicker boards in said area. In pallets whose platform is made of a molding or injection molding compound, at least the area with the recesses is made thicker in a corresponding manner. The attachment of deeper recesses in the platform of the pallet ensures safe transport even for larger and heavy goods.
Wie ausgeführt, eignet sich die erfindungsgemäße Palette zum Transport von Gütern, die auf Füßen oder ähnlichen Standflächen stehen. Bei einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Palette ist vorgesehen, daß die Ausnehmungen Räder oder Laufrollen aufnehmen, welche den Gütern zugeordnet sind und deren Stand vermitteln. Die Ausnehmungen verhindern bei Transportgütern dieser Art in wirkungsvoller Weise ein Wegrollen des Gutes. Die vorgeschlagene Palette liefert somit eine Lösung für ein Sicherungsproblem, das mit Mitteln nach dem Stand der Technik nur unbefriedigend gelöst ist. Gemäß vorliegender Erfindung werden hierzu sehr einfache Mittel - Ausnehmungen in der Palettenplattform - eingesetzt, während nach dem Stand der Technik in der Regel um die Räder herum aus Brettern oder Leisten Blockaden gezimmert und zudem die Transportgüter mit Gurten oder Bändern festgezurrt werden.As stated, the pallet according to the invention is suitable for the transport of goods standing on feet or similar standing surfaces. In a preferred embodiment of the pallet is provided that the recesses take up wheels or rollers, which are assigned to the goods and convey their state. The recesses prevent transport goods of this type in an effective way rolling away the goods. The proposed range thus provides a solution to a security problem that is solved only unsatisfactory with means of the prior art. According to the present invention very simple means - recesses in the pallet platform - are used for this purpose, while in the prior art usually around the wheels made of boards or strips blockades and also the goods to be lashed with straps or straps.
Bei der letztgenannten Ausführungsform sieht die Erfindung eine besonders geeignete Ausgestaltung der Palette vor, bei welcher die Ausnehmungen in der Plattform in Form von Zylinderabschnitten ausgebildet sind. Diese Ausführung der Ausnehmungen gibt den Rädern oder Laufrollen einen besonders guten Halt und sichert somit wirkungsvoll Transportgüter der genannten Art.In the latter embodiment, the invention provides a particularly suitable embodiment of the pallet, in which the recesses in the platform are formed in the form of cylinder sections. This embodiment of the recesses gives the wheels or rollers a special Good grip and thus ensures effective transport goods of the type mentioned.
In der Regel weisen zum Transport mit der vorgeschlagenen Palette vorgesehene Güter mehrere Füße, Räder, Laufrollen oder ähnlich ausgebildete Standflächen auf. Die einem Transportgut zugeordneten Ausnehmungen auf der Plattform der Palette bilden zusammen somit einen Satz von Ausnehmungen. Bei einer Weiterbildung der erfindungsgemäßen Palette ist vorgesehen, daß die Plattform mehrere Sätze von Ausnehmungen aufweist, von denen je ein Satz einem Transportgut zugeordnet ist. Paletten dieser Ausgestaltung können, je nach Anordnung der Ausnehmungen, dazu verwandt werden, auf einer Palette gleichzeitig mehrere Transportgüter oder von einem zum nächsten Transport Güter mit unterschiedlich ausgebildeten Standflächen zu transportieren. Hierdurch wird der Anwendungsbereich und die Flexibilität der erfindungsgemäßen Palette in vorteilhafter Weise erheblich vergrößert.As a rule, goods provided for transport with the proposed pallet have a plurality of feet, wheels, castors or similarly designed standing surfaces. The transport goods associated recesses on the platform of the pallet thus together form a set of recesses. In a further development of the pallet according to the invention it is provided that the platform has a plurality of sets of recesses, of which one set is assigned to a cargo. Pallets of this configuration can, depending on the arrangement of the recesses, be used to transport on a pallet at the same time a plurality of transport goods or from one to the next transport goods with differently shaped stand surfaces. As a result, the range of application and the flexibility of the pallet according to the invention is advantageously increased considerably.

In Figur 1 und 2 ist eine Palette wiedergegeben, deren Plattform 1 aus Brettern 2 hergestellt ist. Die beiden Randbretter 2, 2IV weisen Ausnehmungen 3 -6' auf, deren Tiefe so bemessen ist, daß sie die Unterseite der genannten Bretter nicht durchstoßen. Wie man der Figur 2 entnehmen kann, ist die übliche Dicke der Plattform, wie sie durch die Bretter 2' - 2"' vorgegeben ist, für die vorliegende Transportaufgabe nicht ausreichend. Um Ausnehmungen geeigneter Tiefe anbringen zu können, sind daher die Randbretter 2, 2IV dicker ausgebildet als die zur Mitte der Plattform hin liegenden Bretter 2' - 2"'.In Figures 1 and 2, a pallet is reproduced, the
Vorliegende Palette ist zum Transport von Gütern vorgesehen, die auf Rädern oder Laufrollen stehen. Die Ausnehmungen 3 - 6' in der Plattform haben daher die Form von Zylinderabschnitten. Der Form der von den Ausnehmungen aufgenommenen Rädern entsprechend weisen die Ausnehmungen 3, 4 jedoch eine geringfügig andere Ausbildung als die Ausnehmungen 5, 6 auf. Im ersten Fall sind die senkrecht zur Zylinderachse liegenden Deckflächen der Ausnehmung durch ebene Flächen, im zweiten Fall durch bauchige Flächen gegeben.This pallet is intended for the transport of goods standing on wheels or casters. The recesses 3 - 6 'in the platform therefore have the shape of cylindrical sections. In accordance with the shape of the wheels received by the recesses, however, the
Die beiden Randbretter 2, 2IV der in Figur 1 und 2 wiedergegebenen Palette weisen jeweils paarweise einander gleich ausgebildete Ausnehmungen 3/3', 4/4', 5/5' ,6/6' auf. Dabei ist jedes Paar jeweils einem Transportgut zugeordnet. Mit vorliegender Palette lassen sich von einem zum nächsten Transport somit vier unterschiedlich ausgebildete Güter transportieren. Die Ausnehmung 3 -6' sind jeweils formschlüssig zu den Rädern der zu transportierenden Güter ausgebildet. Sie verhindern daher in wirkungsvoller Weise ein Wegrollen des Transportgutes, ohne daß sonstige Hilfsmittel zur Sicherung der des Gutes eingesetzt werden müssen. Die vorgeschlagene Palette gewährleistet somit einen sicheren Halt der Waren bei Transport und Lagerung.The two
