Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen stapelbaren Großladungsträger zur Aufbewahrung bzw. zum Ein- und Mehrwegtransport von Verpackungsgut aller Art, insbesondere von größeren, leichten bis mittelschweren Teilen und Baugruppen.The invention relates to a stackable large load carrier for storage or for single and multiway transport of packaged goods of all kinds, especially larger, light to medium weight parts and assemblies.

Ladungsträger werden als Transport- und Lagerbehälter insbesondere dort eingesetzt, wo Werkzeuge oder Bauteile im Rahmen eines Herstellungsprozesses transportiert oder zwischengelagert werden müssen.Load carriers are used as transport and storage containers, especially where tools or components have to be transported or stored in the course of a manufacturing process.

Bekannt sind geschlossene Boxen oder Container aus Metall, Holz, Wellpappe oder Kunststoffen, die verschweißt, verklebt, genagelt, verschraubt oder formschlüssig miteinander verbunden werden. Dabei sind eine ausreichende Tragkraft und Lebensdauer, sowie geringe Handhabungsaufwendungen zur Nutzung der Ladungsträger wichtig. Insbesondere die Anpassung der Größen an vorgegebene Teilegeometrien aber auch an einzusetzende Transportmittel wie Lastkraftwagen oder Seecontainer spielen eine große Rolle.Are closed boxes or containers made of metal, wood, corrugated cardboard or plastics, which are welded, glued, nailed, screwed or positively connected with each other. In this case, a sufficient load capacity and service life, and low handling costs for the use of the charge carriers are important. In particular, the adaptation of the sizes of given part geometries but also to be used transport means such as trucks or sea containers play a major role.

Ladungsträger aus Metall sind Bauart bedingt schwer, korrosionsanfällig, teuer und aufwendig im Leergutrücktransport.Charge carriers made of metal are heavy due to the design, susceptible to corrosion, expensive and costly in empties return transport.

Ladungsträger aus Holz sind ebenfalls relativ schwer. Sie unterliegen wegen einer Einfuhrgefahr von Schädlingen und Pestiziden im Export erheblichen Einfuhrbeschränkunqen. Sie sind aufwendig in der Handhabung und bergen Verletzungsrisiken durch Holzsplitter, Nägel oder Schrauben.Load carriers made of wood are also relatively heavy. They are subject to substantial import restrictions due to an import risk of pests and pesticides in the export. They are expensive to handle and Risk of injury from wood splinters, nails or screws.

Holzkisten und Vollverschläge lassen den Zustand der transportierten Teile am Empfängerort nicht ohne Öffnen der Behälter erkennen. Dies ist insbesondere bei der Warenabnahme in Freihäfen von großer Bedeutung, wo unnötige Zollformalitäten entfallen können, wenn erkennbare Transportschäden vorliegen. Holzverschläge und Folienschutz sind zeitaufwendig im Zusammenbau und lassen kaum ein übereinanderstapeln von Ladungsträgern zu. Sie erfordern Werkzeuge und handwerklich ausgebildetes Verpackungspersonal.Wooden boxes and crates can not detect the condition of the transported parts at the recipient site without opening the containers. This is of great importance, in particular, for the collection of goods in free ports, where unnecessary customs formalities can be omitted if there are identifiable transport damages. Wooden crates and foil protection are time-consuming to assemble and hardly allow stacking of load carriers. They require tools and skilled packaging personnel.

Ladungsträger aus Wellpappkisten sind überwiegend geschlossene Behälter und lassen keinen oder nur wenig Einblick in das innere zu. Bei vergleichbarer Stapelbelastbarkeit sind sie deutlich materialintensiver und teurer als beispielsweise Holzladungsträger.Carriers made of corrugated cardboard boxes are predominantly closed containers and allow little or no insight into the interior. With comparable stack load capacity, they are significantly more material-intensive and more expensive than, for example, wooden load carriers.

Kunststoffbehälter und Kunststoffpalettenboxen, sind meist für den Mehrwegtransport konzipiert. Sie sind entsprechend teuer und lassen ebenfalls kein Kontrollieren des Verpackungsgutes im verpackten Zustand zu.Plastic containers and plastic pallet boxes, are mostly designed for reusable transport. They are correspondingly expensive and also do not allow control of the packaged goods in the packaged state.

DE 94 16 778 U1 zeigt eine stapelbare Transportverpackung für Hausgeräte, bei der sich zwischen einer Boden- und einer Deckenplatte, welche durch Spannbänder gehalten werden, mehrere stabförmige Stützen befinden können. Für eine Höhenverstellung können die zweiteilig ausgebildeten Stützen gegeneinander verschiebbar und mittels einer Gewinde-Spannhülse arretierbar sein. DE 94 16 778 U1 shows a stackable transport packaging for household appliances, in which can be located between a floor and a ceiling plate, which are held by straps, several rod-shaped supports. For a height adjustment, the two-part supports can be displaced against each other and locked by means of a threaded clamping sleeve.

In DE 93 05 400 U1 wird ein Stapelgestell beschrieben, bei dem auf einem Vierkant-U-Rahmen ein Niederhalter mittels Flachschrauben gesichert wird.In DE 93 05 400 U1 describes a stacking frame in which a hold-down is secured by means of flat screws on a square U-frame.

Bei dem in JP 2004 14 2808 AA offenbarten Lastenträger werden zu transportierende Rollen zwischen zwei Platten mittels Stützen gehalten. Die angeformten Enden der Stützen werden dabei in Aussparungen der Platten eingesteckt.At the in JP 2004 14 2808 AA disclosed load carriers are transported rolls to be transported between two plates by means of supports. The molded ends of the supports are thereby inserted into recesses of the plates.

In EP 1 340 696 A1 wird eine Vorrichtung gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 zum Verpacken von Fahrrädern beschrieben. Eine geschlitzte Basis besitzt an beiden Enden einen Positionierungsbalken, durch die mehrere Pfosten führen. Am gegenüberliegenden Ende der Pfosten ist eine Deckenplatte angeordnet.In EP 1 340 696 A1 a device according to the preamble of claim 1 for the packaging of bicycles is described. A slotted base has a positioning bar at both ends through which several posts pass. At the opposite end of the post a ceiling plate is arranged.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist die Entwicklung eines Großladungsträgers, der einerseits ein geringes Gewicht, andererseits aber eine hohe Stabilität und Stapelfestigkeit aufweist. Dabei soll er auf einfache Weise und kostengünstig herstellbar sein. Der Ladungsträger soll transparent ausführbar sein und dadurch einen ausreichenden Einblick auf die verpackten Teile gewähren. Er soll in unterschiedlichsten Formaten und Höhen teile- und transportraumspezifisch gefertigt werden können und dabei eine hohe Vormontage und geringes Transport- und Lagervolumen im Leerzustand aufweisen. Der Handhabungsaufwand zum Aufbau des Ladungsträgers soll gering sein und keine Facharbeiterkenntnis voraussetzen.The object of the invention is the development of a large load carrier, on the one hand a low weight, but on the other hand has a high stability and stacking strength. He should be easy to produce and inexpensive. The charge carrier should be transparent and thus allow sufficient insight on the packaged parts. It should be manufactured in a variety of formats and heights parts and transport space specific and thereby have a high pre-assembly and low transport and storage volume in the empty state. The handling effort for the construction of the load carrier should be low and require no knowledge of skilled labor.

Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die Merkmale des Anspruches 1 gelöst. Ausgestaltende Merkmale sind in den unteransprüchen 2 bis 10 beschrieben.The object is achieved by the features of claim 1. Ausgestaltende features are described in the dependent claims 2 to 10.

Der erfindungsgemäße Großladungsträger besteht aus mindestens einer Bodenplatte und mindestens einer Deckenplatte. Zwischen der Bodenplatte und der Deckenplatte sind mindestens drei Hohlprofile mittels Schraubverbindungen befestigt. Die Bodenplatte liegt dabei auf einem an Fußschrauben angeformten Rand. Die Fußschrauben selbst sind mit einem Fußteil und einem in Achsrichtung ein- oder mehrfach geschlitzten Gewindeteil versehenen. Die Fußschrauben nehmen die Hohlprofile senkrecht auf. Die Hohlprofile werden mittels Überwurfmuttern, welche ein konisch geformtes Gewinde besitzen, an der Bodenplatte und der Deckenplatte befestigt. Durch den geschlitzten Gewindeschaft von Fuß- und Deckenschraube in Verbindung mit dem konisch ausgeführten Gewinde der Überwurfmutter wird erreicht, dass der Durchmesser des Gewindeschaftes durch Anziehen der Überwurfmutter verringert werden kann und dadurch ein fixierender Druck mit biaxialer Kraftübertragung von der jeweiligen Fußschraube bzw. der jeweiligen Deckenschraube auf die Außenwand der Hohlprofile ausgeübt wird. Alle Schraubverbindungen bestehen aus thermoplastischem Material und sind üblicherweise als Spritzgussteile ausgeführt.The large load carrier according to the invention consists of at least one base plate and at least one ceiling plate. Between the bottom plate and the ceiling plate at least three hollow sections are fastened by means of screw. The bottom plate rests on an edge formed on foot screws. The foot screws themselves are provided with a foot part and a single or multiple slotted threaded part in the axial direction. The foot screws take the hollow profiles vertically. The hollow profiles are secured by means of union nuts, which have a conically shaped thread on the bottom plate and the ceiling plate. Through the slotted threaded shank of foot and ceiling screw in conjunction with the conical thread of the union nut ensures that the diameter of the threaded shaft can be reduced by tightening the nut and thereby a fixing pressure with biaxial force transmission of the respective foot screw or the respective ceiling screw is exerted on the outer wall of the hollow profiles. All screw connections are made of thermoplastic material and are usually designed as injection molded parts.

Eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform liegt vor, wenn die Bodenplatten und/oder die Deckenplatten und/oder die Hohlprofile aus Naturfaserprodukten bestehen, wobei die Bodenplatten und/oder die Deckenplatten insbesondere aus Papierstoff-Wabenplatten und/oder die Hohlprofile aus gewickeltem Papier bestehen können.A preferred embodiment is when the floor panels and / or the ceiling panels and / or the hollow profiles consist of natural fiber products, the floor panels and / or the ceiling panels may consist in particular of paper honeycomb panels and / or the hollow profiles of wound paper.

Die Bodenplatten und/oder die Deckenplatten und/oder die Hohlprofile können auch aus thermoplastischen Kunststoffen bestehen, wobei die Bodenplatten und/oder die Deckenplatten aus Kunststoff-Hohlkammerplatten bestehen können. Die Hohlprofile können runde oder viereckige Querschnitte aufweisen.The floor panels and / or the ceiling panels and / or the hollow profiles may also consist of thermoplastics, the floor panels and / or the ceiling panels are made of plastic hollow panels can. The hollow profiles may have round or square cross sections.

Wenn die Deckenschrauben oben so geformt sind, dass sie Fußteile formschlüssig aufnehmen, dann können mehrere Großladungsträger gleicher Bauart und Größe derart übereinander gestapelt werden, dass die Last ausschließlich über die Rohre auf die jeweilige Stellfläche des untersten Ladungsträgers übertragen werden. Die senkrechte Lastabtragung der gestapelten Behälter über die Hohlprofile führen zu sehr hohen Belastungsmöglichkeiten, wobei die thermoplastischen Füße nur das Gewicht des jeweiligen Ladungsträgers übernehmen müssen.If the ceiling screws are shaped at the top so that they receive foot parts positively, then several large load carriers of the same type and size can be stacked so that the load is transmitted exclusively through the tubes to the respective footprint of the lowest charge carrier. The vertical load transfer of the stacked containers on the hollow profiles lead to very high load capabilities, the thermoplastic feet need only take over the weight of the respective charge carrier.

Der erfindungsgemäße Großladungsträger kann durch Stretchfolie derart umwickelt werden, dass über diagonale Zugkräfte der Ladungsträger im beladenen Zustand verwindungssteif gesichert wird. Die eingesetzte Stretchfolie kann mit VCI Korrosionsschutzmitteln ausgerüstet sein, die zum inneren des Ladungsträgers diffundieren und sich vor Rost schützend auf metallische Oberflächen innerhalb des Behälters legen. Die Stretchfolie selbst kann auch opak sein.The large load carrier according to the invention can be wrapped by stretch film in such a way that is secured torsionally stiff over diagonal tensile forces of the charge carriers in the loaded state. The stretch film used may be provided with VCI anticorrosion agents that diffuse to the interior of the charge carrier and protect against rust on metallic surfaces within the container. The stretch film itself can also be opaque.

Der Aufbau des Großladungsträgers ermöglicht es, dass innerhalb des Ladungsträgers spezifische Aufnahmen eingebaut sind, die das zu transportierende Gut vor Beschädigungen schützen. Zur Erhöhung der Versteifungsfestigkeit kann der Ladungsträger zusätzliche Verstrebungen im Kreuzverbund besitzen.The structure of the large load carrier makes it possible that inside the load carrier specific shots are installed, which protect the goods to be transported from damage. To increase the stiffening strength of the charge carrier may have additional bracing in the cross-compound.

Large load carrier stacked

Für den Überseetransport von Kraftfahrzeugteilen sollen stapelbare Großladungsträger eingesetzt werden.For the overseas transport of automotive parts stackable large load carriers are to be used.

In Fig. 1 ist ein Großladungsträger mit einer Bodenplatte 1 und einer Deckenplatte 2 dargestellt. Zwischen der Bodenplatte 1 und der Deckenplatte 2 sind 4 Hohlprofile 3 mittels Schraubverbindungen befestigt. Die Fig. 2 und 3 zeigen diese Befestigung im Schnitt. In Fig. 4 sind jeweils eine Deckenschraube 5, in Fig. 5 eine Überwurfmutter 6 sowie in Fig. 6 eine Fußschraube 4 zu sehen. Die Bodenplatte 1 liegt dabei auf einem an den Fußschrauben 4 angeformten Rand 7. Die Fußschrauben 4 selbst sind mit einem Fußteil 8 und einem am Umfang 3-fach längs geschlitzten Gewindeteil 9 versehen. Die Fußschrauben 4 nehmen die Hohlprofile 3 senkrecht auf. Die Hohlprofile 3 werden mittels Überwurfmuttern 6, welche ein konisch geformtes Gewinde besitzen, an der Bodenplatte 1 und der Deckenplatte 2 befestigt. Durch den mehrfach geschlitzten Gewindeschaft von Fuß- und Deckenschraube in Verbindung mit dem konisch ausgeführten Gewinde der Überwurfmutter 6 wird der Durchmesser des Gewindeschaftes durch Anziehen der Überwurfmutter 6 verringert. Dadurch wird ein fixierender Druck mit biaxialer Kraftübertragung von der jeweiligen Fußschraube 4 und der jeweiligen Deckenschraube 5 auf die Außenwand der Hohlprofile 3 ausgeübt. Alle Schraubverbindungen bestehen aus thermoplastischem Spritzgussmaterial. Die Schlitze in den Gewindeschäften sind in Fig. 4 und 6 nicht dargestellt.In Fig. 1 a large load carrier with a bottom plate 1 and a ceiling plate 2 is shown. Between the bottom plate 1 and the ceiling plate 2 4 hollow sections 3 are fastened by means of screw. The Fig. 2 and 3 show this attachment in the cut. In Fig. 4 are each a ceiling screw 5, in Fig. 5 a union nut 6 and in Fig. 6 to see a foot screw 4. The bottom plate 1 is placed on an integrally formed on the foot screws 4 edge 7. The foot screws 4 themselves are provided with a foot part 8 and a longitudinally 3-fold longitudinally slotted threaded portion 9. The foot screws 4 take the hollow sections 3 vertically. The hollow sections 3 are secured by means of union nuts 6, which have a conically shaped thread on the bottom plate 1 and the ceiling plate 2. Due to the multiple slotted threaded shaft foot and ceiling screw in conjunction with the conical thread of the union nut 6, the diameter of the threaded shaft is reduced by tightening the nut 6. As a result, a fixing pressure with biaxial force transmission is exerted by the respective foot screw 4 and the respective ceiling screw 5 on the outer wall of the hollow profiles 3. All screw connections are made of thermoplastic Injection molding material. The slots in the threaded shafts are in 4 and 6 not shown.

Die Bodenplatten 1 und die Deckenplatten 2 bestehen aus Papierstoff-Wabenplatten einer Dicke von 30 mm. Die Hohlprofile 3 sind gewickelte Papprohre mit einer Wandstärke von 5 mm.The floor panels 1 and the ceiling panels 2 are made of paper honeycomb panels of a thickness of 30 mm. The hollow sections 3 are wound cardboard tubes with a wall thickness of 5 mm.

Wenn die Deckenschrauben 5 oben so geformt sind, dass sie Fußteile 8 formschlüssig aufnehmen, dann können mehrere Großladungsträger gleicher Bauart und Größe, wie in Fig. 7 dargestellt, übereinander gestapelt werden.If the ceiling screws 5 are shaped at the top so that they receive foot parts 8 in a form-fitting manner, then several large load carriers of the same design and size as in FIG Fig. 7 represented stacked on top of each other.

Der Großladungsträger wird nach dem Beladen sehr einfach durch opake Stretchfolie derart umwickelt, dass über diagonale Zugkräfte der Ladungsträger im beladenen Zustand verwindungssteif gesichert wird. Die eingesetzte Stretchfolie ist mit VCI Korrosionsschutzmitteln ausgerüstet, die zum inneren des Ladungsträgers diffundieren und sich vor Rost schützend auf metallische Oberflächen innerhalb des Behälters legen.After loading, the large load carrier is very simply wrapped in opaque stretch film in such a way that it is secured against distortion by diagonal tensile forces of the load carriers in the loaded state. The stretch film used is equipped with VCI anticorrosion agents, which diffuse to the interior of the charge carrier and protect against rust on metallic surfaces within the container.

Es werden jeweils 4 PKW-Spoiler mit einem Gewicht pro Spoiler von ca. 13,3 kg auf einer 2270 x 1150 x 550 mm großen und ca. 53,2 kg schweren Verpackungseinheit untergebracht. Zur Aufnahme der Spoiler befinden sich auf den Bodenplatten Zahnleisten aus Schaum, die die Teile formschlüssig fixieren. Jeweils 4 Verpackungseinheiten werden übereinander und jeweils fünf solcher Stapel hintereinander zusammengestellt und in einem 20-Fuß-Container transportiert.In each case 4 car spoilers with a weight per spoiler of approx. 13.3 kg are accommodated on a 2270 x 1150 x 550 mm large and approx. 53.2 kg heavy packing unit. To accommodate the spoiler are located on the bottom plates rack made of foam, which fix the parts form fit. Each 4 packaging units are stacked on top of each other and each five such stack and transported in a 20-foot container.

Die Vorteile des Großladungsträgers bestehen darin, dass er einerseits ein geringes Gewicht, andererseits aber eine hohe Stabilität und Stapelfestigkeit aufweist. Er ist sehr einfach, kostengünstig und in unterschiedlichsten Formaten und Höhen teile- und transportraumspezifisch herstellbar. Es ist eine hohe Vormontage möglich. Im Leerzustand besitzt er ein geringes Transport- und Lagervolumen. Der Handhabungsaufwand zum Aufbau des Ladungsträgers ist gering und erfordert keine besonderen Facharbeiterkenntnisse.The advantages of the large load carrier are that it has a low weight on the one hand, but on the other hand a high stability and stacking strength. He is very simple, inexpensive and in different ways Formats and heights can be produced for specific parts and transport areas. It is possible a high pre-assembly. When empty, it has a low transport and storage volume. The handling effort to build the load carrier is low and requires no special skilled workers.
