Description

The present invention relates to a transport unit comprising a plurality of panels selected from the group consisting of insulating panels including fibre and foam based insulating panels and other fibre and foam based panels.
Traditionally the fibrous materials are frequently supplied to the users in the form of panels in relatively large dimensions. These panels can be covered on one or several of their surfaces, with a protective sheet material and the panels are themselves joined in bundles assembled by a sheath.
In accordance with a general ecological trend, also the insulation material industry wants a reduction in the packaging materials, since usually these packaging materials cannot be used at the places where the insulating panels are used and therefore need to be disposed of.
A transport unit is known from e.g. DE 92 18 320 Ul. This transport unit transports panels of insulating material, where a plurality of panels of insulating material are arranged on top of each other to form a stack, the lowermost panels of insulating material being placed on two support elements which consist of a material useful for insulation purposes e.g. wool. The stack of panels of insulating material and the support elements are then enclosed by a sheet, so that the stack of panels of insulating material and the support elements form a stable transport unit because of the sheet. One of the problems with this transport unit is that it has high production costs, because the two support elements consist of wool.
A transport unit is also disclosed in WO 98/23497 wherein a transport unit consisting of several panels of insulating material is stacked on support elements made of a material suitable for insulation purposes. The support elements and the panels of insulating material are connected and both enveloped by a foil cover. This transport unit solves the problem concerning a reduction of the amount of packaging material for transport units consisting of a plurality of panels of insulating material.
This transport unit is only suitable for transport of a few panels of insulating material. Several panels of insulating material can only be stacked in a specific way or the stability of the disclosed transport unit is adversely affected to a significant degree.
Accordingly, there remains a need for a transport unit of the above-mentioned kind, which does not exhibit the above-identified drawbacks, and which is particularly suitable for stacks in all size.
In view of prior art, the object of the invention is additionally to reduce the amount of packaging material for transport units consisting of a plurality of panels of insulating material, without the stability of such transport units being adversely affected to a significant degree.
The object of the present invention is also to provide a transport unit which is stable with all kinds of panels of insulating material during transport, and where these several panels of insulating material can be stacked in any desired way.
A further object of the present invention is to provide a transport unit which can be produced at low cost.
Yet another object of the present invention is also to provide an alternative transport unit to the known transport unit disclosed in WO 98/23497.
The objectives are achieved with the transport unit according to the invention as defined in the claims.
The invention relates to a transport unit, which comprises a plurality of panels selected from a group consisting of insulating panels including fibre and foam based insulating panels and/or other fibre and foam based panels.
