Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein flexibles Fachsystem, das aus flexiblen Bahnen besteht, die zwischen Rahmenelementen, wie z.B. Stangen spannbar oder an diesen aufhängbar sind, wobei Zwischenstücke, die ebenfalls aus flexiblem Bahnenmaterial bestehen, so mit den spannbaren oder aufhängbaren Bahnen vernäht sind, daß sich eine Facheinteilung ergibt.The present invention relates to a flexible shelving system consisting of flexible webs sandwiched between frame members, e.g. Rods are tensioned or suspendable to these, with intermediate pieces, which also consist of flexible sheet material, are sewn to the tensioned or suspendable webs that results in a compartment division.

Aus dem Stand der Technik sind flexible Fachsysteme für die Befestigung in Rahmen, insbesondere in Transportbehältern, bekannt. Diese flexiblen Fachsysteme ermöglichen den schonenden Transport von Stückgütem, beispielsweise Automobilteilen, in großen Stückzahlen in einem geschlossenen Transportbehälter. Bekannt sind Fachsysteme mit verschiedenen Formen von Fächern bzw. Taschen, unter anderem solche, die aus Fächern bestehen, die von den Stimseiten der Transportbehälter her beladen werden können. Für ein solches flexibles Fachsystem werden flexible Bahnen in einem Rahmen befestigt, beispielsweise zwischen Rahmenelementen gespannt, wobei übereinanderangeordnete Bahnen mit vertikalen Zwischenstücken, die ebenfalls aus flexiblem Material bestehen, vernäht werden, so daß sich Fächer ergeben. Für große Transportbehälter werden große, zusammenhängende flexible Fachsysteme benötigt. Die Herstellung solcher großen flexiblen Fachsysteme erfordert den Einsatz entsprechend bemessener Maschinen, wie z.B. Nähmaschinen oder Schweißvorrichtungen. Das Ersetzen der herkömmlichen Maschinen durch solche, die für die Herstellung großer zusammenhängender Fachsysteme geeignet sind, ist aber sehr kostenintensiv.From the prior art flexible specialist systems for mounting in frames, especially in transport containers, known. These flexible specialist systems enable the gentle transport of piece goods, such as automotive parts, in large quantities in a closed transport container. Specialist systems are known with various shapes of compartments or pockets, including those that consist of compartments that can be loaded from the front ends of the transport container ago. For such a flexible tray system flexible webs are mounted in a frame, for example stretched between frame members, wherein superimposed webs with vertical spacers, which are also made of flexible material, are sewn, so that there are compartments. Large transport containers require large, coherent flexible shelving systems. The manufacture of such large flexible shelving systems requires the use of appropriately sized machines, such as e.g. Sewing machines or welding devices. The replacement of the conventional machines by those which are suitable for the production of large coherent specialized systems, but is very expensive.

EP-A-865 991 offenbart ein Fachsystem gemäß dem Obergegriff des Anspruchs 1.EP-A-865 991 discloses a tray system according to the preamble of claim 1.

Gegenüber diesem Stand der Technik liegt der vorliegenden Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, große flexible Fachsysteme mit einer ausreichenden Anzahl von Fächern zur Verfügung zu stellen, die auf kostengünstige und zeitsparende Weise hergestellt werden können.Compared to this prior art, the present invention has the object to provide large flexible shelving systems with a sufficient number of subjects available that can be produced in a cost effective and time-saving manner.

Die Aufgabe wird durch die Merkmale des kennzeichnenden Teils des Anspruchs 1 gelöst, wobei ein großes flexibles Fachsystem aus mehreren Grundelementen mit einer kleineren Anzahl von Fächern modular aufgebaut ist, wobei die Grundelemente so ausgestaltet sind, daß sie wechselseitig zu einer größeren Einheit miteinander verbindbar sind.The object is solved by the features of the characterizing part of claim 1, wherein a large flexible compartment system of a plurality of basic elements with a smaller number of compartments is modular, wherein the basic elements are designed so that they are mutually connectable to a larger unit.

Dieser Aufbau ermöglicht es, mit den herkömmlichen Produktionsmaschinen und -verfahren flexible Fachsysteme als Module für größere flexible Fachsysteme mit einer großen Anzahl von Fächern herzustellen. Es müssen zur Herstellung keine neuen Maschinen beschafft werden. Darüber hinaus spart die Verbindung mehrer Grundelemente zu einem flexiblen Fachsystem Produktionszeit gegen-über der Herstellung eines großen zusammenhängenden Fachsystems, da kleinere Einheiten des Fachsystems einfacher gehandhabt, d.h. ausgerichtet und befestigt werden können. Der modulare Aufbau gestattet im Schadensfall auch den Austausch von einzelnen Grundelementen ohne das gesamte Fachsystem austauschen zu müssen. Das modulare System ist vor allem auch für eine große Serienproduktion geeignet, da eine große Zahl identischer Module hergestellt werden kann, die dann je nach Kundenwunsch zu unterschiedlich großen Fachsystemen verbunden werden können.This construction makes it possible to use the conventional production machines and methods to produce flexible shelving systems as modules for larger flexible shelving systems with a large number of shelves. No new machines have to be procured for production. In addition, the combination of several basic elements to a flexible specialist system saves production time against-over the production of a large coherent compartment system, as smaller units of the specialized system can be handled more easily, ie aligned and fixed. The modular design also allows the replacement of individual basic elements in the event of damage without having to replace the entire compartment system. Above all, the modular system is also suitable for large series production, since a large number of identical modules can be produced, which can then be connected to different sized specialist systems according to the customer's wishes.

In einer Variante der Erfindung ist jedes Grundelement aus vier Fächern aufgebaut. Solche Elemente werden für kleinere Transportbehälter bereits produziert und vertrieben. Im übrigen ist es von Vorteil, wenn die erfindungsgemäßen Grundelemente bzw. Module speziell so ausgestaltet sind, daß sie leicht wechselseitig und gegebenenfalls auch in einer prinzipiell beliebig großen Anzahl miteinander verbindbar sind.In a variant of the invention, each basic element is composed of four compartments. Such elements are already being produced and distributed for smaller shipping containers. Moreover, it is advantageous if the basic elements or modules according to the invention are specially designed so that they are easily mutually connectable and optionally also in a basically arbitrarily large number of interconnected.

Zweckmäßig kann eine Ausführungsform der Erfindung sein, bei der die zusammengesetzten Grundelemente alle identisch sind. Die Herstellung nur eines Typs von Grundelementen spart Zeit und Kosten.Conveniently may be an embodiment of the invention in which the composite primitives are all identical. Producing just one type of primitive saves time and money.

In einer anderen bevorzugten Ausführungsform weisen die unteren flexiblen Bahnen der jeweils oberen Grundelemente keine Befestigungselemente für den Rahmen auf. Diese Anordnung verringert die Einbauhöhe des Fachsystems und vereinfacht die Herstellung der Grundelemente, da von zwei aneinanderstoßenden flexiblen Bahnen zweier Grundelemente, die ohnehin miteinander vernäht werden, nur eine Bahn am Rahmen befestigt ist.In another preferred embodiment, the lower flexible webs of the respective upper basic elements have no fastening elements for the frame. This arrangement reduces the installation height of the compartment system and simplifies the manufacture of the basic elements, since only one track is attached to the frame of two abutting flexible webs of two basic elements, which are sewn together anyway.

Darüber hinaus ist es in dieser Ausführungsform der Erfindung sinnvoll, daß die übereinander liegenden Grundelemente entlang der Befestigungselemente zur Befestigung am Rahmen miteinander vernäht sind oder mit Hilfe von Klettverschlüssen miteinander verbunden sind. So wird ein Verrutschen der untersten flexiblen Bahn des jeweils oberen Grundelements verhindert.Moreover, it is useful in this embodiment of the invention that the superimposed basic elements are sewn together along the fastening elements for attachment to the frame or are connected to each other by means of Velcro. This prevents slippage of the lowermost flexible web of the respective upper basic element.

In einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung sind die flexiblen Bahnen der einzelnen Grundelemente an den Seiten zu Schlaufen vernäht. Durch die Schlaufen können Haltestangen gesteckt werden, mit denen das Fachsystem am Rahmen befestigt und gespannt wird.In a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the flexible webs of the individual basic elements are sewn on the sides into loops. Handrails can be inserted through the loops, with which the compartment system is attached to the frame and tensioned.

Bei dieser Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist es zweckmäßig, daß die oberste bzw. unterste der flexiblen Bahnen zweier aneinanderstoßender Grundelemente auf beiden Seiten jeweils nur mit Schlaufenhälften versehen sind, die mit den entsprechenden Schlaufenhälften der anstoßenden flexiblen Bahn zu einer oder mehreren vollen Schlaufen vernäht sind. In dieser Anordnung wird sowohl die unterste flexible Bahn des oberen Grundelements als auch die oberste flexible Bahn des unteren Grundelements am Rahmen gehalten und gespannt. Die Schlaufen einer oberen und einer unteren Bahn übereinander angeordneter Grundelemente können auch wechselseitig auf Lücke versetzt sein.In this embodiment of the invention, it is expedient that the uppermost or lowermost of the flexible webs of two abutting basic elements are provided on both sides only with loop halves, which are sewn to the corresponding loop halves of the abutting flexible web to one or more full loops. In this arrangement, both the lowermost flexible web of the upper base member and the uppermost flexible web of the lower base member are held and stretched on the frame. The loops of an upper and a lower track superimposed primitives can also be offset to each other gap.

Alternativ können die vollständigen Schlaufen zweier übereinander angeordneter Grundelemente so miteinander vernäht sein, daß sie eine volle Schlaufe bilden. Werden die Schlaufen an Ihren jeweils am weitesten überstehenden Punkten miteinander vernäht, so ergibt sich nach dem Vernähen eine Schlaufe aus gedoppeltem Material.Alternatively, the complete loops of two superimposed primitives may be sewn together to form a full loop. If the loops are sewn together at their furthest protruding points, a loop of doubled material results after sewing.

In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung sind die übereinander angeordneten Grundelemente entlang der Öffnungen der Fächer miteinander vernäht oder mit Hilfe von Klettverschlüssen miteinander verbunden. Dies verhindert, daß beim Beladen des Transportbehälters Fracht versehentlich zwischen zwei Grundelemente gesteckt wird. Die Ausführungsform mit Klettverschlüssen ermöglicht darüber hinaus ein schnelles Trennen der Grundelemente nach dem Ausbau aus dem Rahmen.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the superimposed basic elements are sewn together along the openings of the compartments or connected to each other by means of Velcro fasteners. This prevents the loading of the transport container cargo is accidentally inserted between two basic elements. The embodiment with Velcro closures also allows a quick separation of the basic elements after removal from the frame.

In einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung sind an den oberen bzw. unteren Seiten der jeweils untersten und obersten Bahnen eines modular zusammengesetzten Fachsystems zusätzlich Ösen oder Schlaufen befestigt, durch die Spannstangen geführt werden können, die das Fachsystem in vertikaler Richtung halten und spannen. Dies verhindert ein Durchhängen der flexiblen Bahnen bei Beladung mit schweren Gegenständen.In a particularly preferred embodiment of the invention, additional loops or loops are attached to the upper and lower sides of the respective lowermost and uppermost webs of a modular composite tray system, can be guided by the tie rods, which hold the tray system in the vertical direction and tension. This prevents sagging of the flexible webs when loaded with heavy objects.

In Figur 1 ist ein flexibles Fachsystem bestehend aus zwei identischen Grundelementen 4 und 21 gezeigt. Jedes Grundelement ist aus horizontal gespannten flexiblen Bahnen aufgebaut, die mit Hilfe von vertikalen Zwischenstücken 2, die ebenfalls aus flexiblem Bahnenmaterial bestehen, miteinander verbunden sind, so daß vier Fächer 3 gebildet werden. An den Seiten rechts und links der Fächer 3 sind die flexiblen Bahnen 1, 16, 17 zu Schlaufen 18 vernäht, durch die Spannstangen 6 zur Befestigung am Rahmen geführt sind. Die übereinander liegenden Grundelemente 4 sind in der gezeigten Ausführungsform mit Abstandshaltern 14 ausgestattet. In der dargestellten Ausführungsform bestehen die Abstandshalter 14 ebenfalls aus flexiblem Bahnenmaterial, das so gefalzt ist, daß Winkel entstehen, die miteinander vernäht werden. Die Abstandshalter sind so bemessen, daß sie einen Abstand überbrücken, der es ermöglicht beide Bahnen 16, 17 mit Schlaufen an Befestigungsstangen zu befestigen. Die Abstandshalter 14 des oberen bzw. unteren Grundelements sind miteinander vernäht. Dies ist besonders deutlich in der Seitenansicht in Figur 2 zu sehen, in der eine der Nähte 15 entlang der Öffnungen der Fächer schematisch dargestellt ist.FIG. 1 shows a flexible compartment system consisting of two identical basic elements 4 and 21. Each basic element is composed of horizontally stretched flexible webs, which are connected to each other by means of vertical spacers 2, which are also made of flexible sheet material, so that four compartments 3 are formed. On the sides right and left of the compartments 3, the flexible webs 1, 16, 17 sewn into loops 18, are guided by the tie rods 6 for attachment to the frame. The superimposed basic elements 4 are equipped with spacers 14 in the embodiment shown. In the illustrated embodiment, the spacers 14 are also made of flexible sheet material that is folded so that angles are created which are sewn together. The spacers are sized to span a distance that allows both tracks 16, 17 to be attached to attachment bars with loops. The spacers 14 of the upper and lower basic element are sewn together. This can be seen particularly clearly in the side view in Figure 2, in which one of the seams 15 along the openings of the compartments is shown schematically.

Beim Verbinden der Grundelemente in dieser ersten Ausführungsform kann man so vorgehen, daß zunächst die Abstandshalter 14 auf einer der beiden Stimseiten des Fachsystems Rücken an Rükken miteinander vernäht werden. Danach werden die beiden Abstandshalter gefalzt und die Fachsysteme aufeinandergeklappt. Die in Figur 2 schematisch dargestellte Verbindung zwischen zwei Grundelementen wurde auf diese Weise hergestellt. Auf der entgegengesetzten Stirnseite des Fachsystems kann die Befestigung dann beispielsweise ausgeführt werden, indem die Abstandshalter 14 nach außen gefalzt werden, d.h. so, daß sie über den Abschluß des Fachsystems hinausragen, und somit zum Nähen zugänglich sind.When connecting the basic elements in this first embodiment, one can proceed so that first the spacers 14 are sewn together on one of the two end sides of the compartment system back to back. Then the two spacers are folded and the shelves folded up. The connection between two basic elements shown schematically in FIG. 2 was produced in this way. For example, on the opposite face of the bin system, the attachment may be accomplished by folding the spacers 14 outwardly, i. so that they protrude beyond the conclusion of the subject system, and thus are accessible for sewing.

In Figur 3 ist eine zweite Ausführungsform des Fachsystems dargestellt. Es setzt sich ebenfalls aus zwei Grundelementen 4' und 21' zusammen, die jeweils vier Fächer 3' aufweisen. Natürlich sind auch Ausführungsformen der Erfindung möglich, bei denen jedes Grundelement eine der Anwendung angepaßte Anzahl von Fächern, die in Spalten und Reihen angeordnet sind, aufweist, z.B. nur ein Fach, 1 × 10 Fächer, 10 × 3 Fächer, 50 × 80 Fächer.FIG. 3 shows a second embodiment of the compartment system. It is also composed of two basic elements 4 'and 21', each having four compartments 3 '. Of course, embodiments of the invention are also possible in which each primitive has an application adapted number of bins arranged in columns and rows, e.g. only one tray, 1 × 10 trays, 10 × 3 trays, 50 × 80 trays.

Deutlich ist zu erkennen, daß die unterste flexible Bahn 16' des oberen Grundelements 4' keine Schlaufen 18' zur Befestigung an den Spannstangen 6' aufweist. Damit die unterste Bahn 16' des oberen Grundelements 4' ebenfalls innerhalb des Rahmens gehalten wird, ist die unterste Bahn 16' des oberen Grundelements 4' mit der obersten Bahn 17' des unteren Grundelements 21' parallel zum Verlauf der Befestigungsschlaufen vernäht oder mit Hilfe eines Klettbandes an Ihr befestigt. Besonders deutlich ist dies in Figur 6 zu erkennen, in der zwei Grundelemente mit jeweils zwei Fächern dargestellt sind. Die beiden Grundelemente 4"', 21"' sind in der Figur noch nicht miteinander verbunden, so daß deutlich zu erkennen ist, daß die unterste flexible Bahn 16"' des oberen Grundelements keine seitlichen Schlaufen besitzt. Hingegen weist die oberste Bahn 17"' des unteren Grundelements zwei seitliche Schlaufen 18'" auf. Die Nähte 19"' parallel zum Verlauf der Befestigungsschlaufen 18"' zur Verbindung des oberen Grundelements mit dem unteren Grundelement sind als gestrichelte Linien gut zu erkennen.It can be clearly seen that the lowermost flexible web 16 'of the upper base member 4' has no loops 18 'for attachment to the tie rods 6'. So that the lowermost track 16 'of the upper base member 4' is also held within the frame, the lowermost track 16 'of the upper base member 4' is sewn to the uppermost track 17 'of the lower base member 21' parallel to the course of the attachment loops or by means of a Velcro fastened to her. This can be seen particularly clearly in FIG. 6, in which two basic elements each having two compartments are shown. The two basic elements 4 "', 21"' are not yet connected to one another in the figure, so that it can be clearly seen that the lowermost flexible web 16 "'of the upper basic element has no lateral loops. of the lower base element has two lateral loops 18 '''', the seams 19 '''parallel to the course of the fastening loops 18 "'for connecting the upper base member to the lower base member are well visible as dashed lines.

Darüber hinaus ist in Figur 4 die Verbindung der oberen 4' und unteren 21' Grundelemente mit Hilfe eines Klettverschlusses 13' entlang der Öffnungen der Fächer zu erkennen. Diese Verbindung verhindert neben dem Verrutschen der unteren Bahn 16' des oberen Grundelements 4' auch, daß beim Beladen des Regalsystems Fracht zwischen die zwei Grundelemente geschoben wird. Anstatt des Klettverschlusses 13' kann die Verbindung auch mit Hilfe eines doppelseitigen Klebebandes hergestellt werden.In addition, in Figure 4, the connection of the upper 4 'and lower 21' basic elements by means of a hook and loop fastener 13 'along the openings of the subjects can be seen. This connection, in addition to the slippage of the lower panel 16 'of the upper base member 4' also prevents cargo from being pushed between the two base members when loading the racking system. Instead of the Velcro 13 ', the compound can also be prepared by means of a double-sided adhesive tape.

In Figur 6 ist auch die Befestigung der Zwischenelemente 2"' in dieser Ausführungsform dargestellt. Die Zwischenelemente sind jeweils an ihrem oberen und unteren Ende gefalzt und die so entstehenden horizontalen Flächen 20"' der Zwischenelemente 2" sind an die oberen bzw. unteren flexiblen Bahnen 1"', 16"' und 17"' angenäht oder angeklebt.The attachment of the intermediate elements 2 "'in this embodiment is also shown in Figure 6. The intermediate elements are each folded at their upper and lower ends and the resulting horizontal surfaces 20"' of the intermediate elements 2 "are against the upper and lower flexible webs, respectively 1 "', 16"' and 17 "'sewn or glued.

Figur 5 zeigt eine dritte erfindungsgemäße Ausführungsform, bei der die unterste flexible Bahn 16" des oberen Grundelements 4" und die oberste flexible Bahn 17" des unteren Grundelements 21" mit jeweils nur einer Schlaufenhälfte 7" bzw. 8" versehen sind. Die beiden Schlaufenhälften 7" und 8" sind so miteinander vernäht, daß sie eine volle Schlaufe bilden, durch die eine Spannstange 6" geschoben ist. Die so miteinander verbundenen Grundelemente 4" und 21" sind zusätzlich entlang der Öffnungen der Fächer mit Hilfe von Klettverschlüssen 13" miteinander verbunden. Der Klettverschluß 13" schließt in dieser Ausführungsform mit der Schnittkante der Bahnen 16" und 17" ab.FIG. 5 shows a third embodiment according to the invention, in which the lowermost flexible web 16 "of the upper basic element 4" and the uppermost flexible web 17 "of the lower basic element 21" are each provided with only one loop half 7 "or 8". The two loop halves 7 "and 8" are sewn together so as to form a full loop through which a tie rod 6 "is slid in. The interconnected base elements 4" and 21 "are additionally along the openings of the pockets by means of hook and loop fasteners 13 "connected. The hook and loop fastener 13 "in this embodiment closes with the cut edge of the webs 16" and 17 ".

Alternativ zu den bereits beschriebenen Befestigungsmöglichkeiten der Grundelemente am Rahmen ist in Figur 7 eine Ausführungsform dargestellt, in der die Befestigungsschlaufen 18'"' der obersten 17"", bzw. untersten 16'"' Bahnen zweier aneinanderstoßender Grundelemente 4"", 21"" so zueinander versetzt angeordnet sind, daß sowohl die Schlaufen 18"" des oberen als auch des unteren Grundelements an einer Haltestangestange befestigt werden können. Diese Art der Befestigung ermöglicht nach dem Ausbau der Haltestangen eine schnelle Trennung der einzelnen Grundelemente voneinander.As an alternative to the fastening possibilities of the basic elements to the frame already described, an embodiment is shown in FIG. 7 in which the fastening loops 18 '' 'of the uppermost 17' ', or lowermost 16' '' webs of two abutting basic elements 4 '', 21 '' ' are arranged offset from each other so that both the loops 18 "" of the upper and the lower base member can be secured to a retaining bar. This type of attachment allows for the removal of the support rods rapid separation of the individual basic elements from each other.

In Figur 8 ist eine Ausgestaltung der Erfindung gezeigt, die das Fachsystem in vertikaler Richtung spannt. Dazu sind an der untersten flexiblen Bahn 16'"" in Verlängerung der Zwischenelemente 2""' Ösen 11""' angebracht. In der dargestellten Ausführungsform werden die Ösen gebildet, indem an die unterste flexible Bahn 16"'" flexible kurze Stücke 20'"" aus dem gleichen Material wie die flexiblen Bahnen angenäht sind und mit Löchern 11'"" versehen sind. Alternativ dazu können die kurzen Stücke 20""' auch aus einem stärkeren Material als die flexiblen Bahnen bestehen. Durch die Löcher 11'"" ist eine Spannstange 6""', die in der Abbildung noch außerhalb der Löcher gezeigt ist, geführt. Die Spannstange 6'"" ist am Rahmen 12""' verschraubt. Alternativ dazu können zum Spannen des Fachsystems auch Haken aus Metall oder Kunststoff verwendet werden, die an die flexiblen Bahnen angenietet sind.In Figure 8, an embodiment of the invention is shown, which biases the tray system in the vertical direction. For this purpose, at the lowermost flexible web 16 '"" in extension of the intermediate elements 2 ""' eyelets 11 ""'attached. In the illustrated embodiment, the eyelets are formed by sewing to the lowermost flexible web 16 "'" flexible short pieces 20'"" of the same material as the flexible webs and provided with holes 11 '"". Alternatively, the short pieces 20 "'' may also be made of a stronger material than the flexible sheets. Through the holes 11 '"" is a tie rod 6 ""', which is shown in the figure, even outside the holes out. The tension rod 6 '"" is bolted to the frame 12 ""'. Alternatively, for tensioning the Specialist system also hooks made of metal or plastic can be used, which are riveted to the flexible webs.
