Description

Gebiet der ErfindungField of the invention

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Transport- und Lagerkasten, insbesondere aus Stahlblech, nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1. Ein derartiger Transport- und Lagerkasten ist beispielsweise aus der FR 1 425 604 A bekannt. Dieser Transport- und Lagerkasten besitzt in allen Teilen eine im Wesentlichen gleiche Wandstärke.The invention relates to a transport and storage box, in particular made of sheet steel, according to the preamble of claim 1. Such a transport and storage box is for example from the FR 1 425 604 A known. This transport and storage box has in all parts a substantially equal wall thickness.

Hintergrund der ErfindungBackground of the invention

Ein aus Metall hergestellter Transport- und Lagerkasten ist beispielsweise aus der DE 196 41 686 C2 bekannt. Dieser Transport- und Lagerkasten weist in üblicher Weise einen rechteckigen Boden sowie jeweils zwei Seiten- und Querwände, welche an deren Oberkante von einem umlaufenden Rahmen begrenzt sind, auf. Der Boden des Behälters hat die Form eines so genannten Waffelmusters, welches zugleich eine Stapelstufe bildet. Der beispielsweise durch Tiefziehen hergestellte Boden des Kastens nach der DE 196 41 686 C2 bildet somit einzelne Vertiefungen, in denen sich Flüssigkeit ansammeln kann.A made of metal transport and storage box is for example from the DE 196 41 686 C2 known. This transport and storage box has in the usual way a rectangular bottom and two side and transverse walls, which are bounded at the upper edge of a peripheral frame, on. The bottom of the container has the shape of a so-called waffle pattern, which also forms a stacking stage. The example by Deep-drawn box after the bottom DE 196 41 686 C2 thus forms individual wells in which liquid can accumulate.

Aufgabe der ErfindungObject of the invention

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Transport- und Lagerkasten anzugeben, in dem sich keine Flüssigkeit ansammeln kann und der besonders dazu geeignet ist, Teile während deren Reinigung in einer Waschanlage aufzunehmen.The invention has for its object to provide a transport and storage box in which no liquid can accumulate and is particularly suitable to receive parts during their cleaning in a car wash.

Zusammenfassung der ErfindungSummary of the invention

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß gelöst durch einen Transport- und Lagerkasten mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1. Dieser bevorzugt aus Blech, insbesondere aus nicht rostendem Stahlblech oder aus verzinktem Stahlblech, hergestellte Kasten ist im Wesentlichen quaderförmig mit einem Boden, zwei Seitenwänden und zwei im Vergleich zu den Seitenwänden kürzeren Querwänden, wobei der Boden, die Seitenwände und die Querwände zusammenfassend als Wandungsflächen bezeichnet werden. Am Boden ist eine Stapelkante ausgebildet; an der Oberkante der Seitenwände und der Querwände befindet sich ein umlaufender Rahmen. Damit können mehrere gleichartige Transport- und Lagerkästen übereinander gestapelt werden. Sämtliche Wandungsflächen sind zumindest in Teilbereichen, insbesondere in Form eines Lochmusters, durchbrochen. Die Seiten- und Querwände weisen jeweils einen unteren, durchbrochenen, und einen oberen, vorzugsweise nicht durchbrochenen Bereich auf, welcher an den Rahmen grenzt. Die oberen Bereiche der Seiten- und Querwände sind relativ zu den unteren Bereichen schräg gestellt, d.h. schließen mit dem Boden einen spitzen Winkel ein, wobei sich der Innenraum des Transport- und Lagerkastens aufgrund dieser Schrägstellung nach oben hin verjüngt. Der jeweils zwischen dem oberen Bereich der Seiten- bzw. Querwand und einer relativ zum Boden senkrechten Ebene gemessene Schrägstellungswinkel ist bei den Seitenwänden größer als bei den Querwänden. Mit anderen Worten: Die oberen Bereiche der Seitenwände sind flacher gestellt als die oberen Bereiche der Querwände. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass bei einheitlicher Breite des umlaufenden Rahmens an den Querwänden - im Gegensatz zu den Seitenwänden - zusätzliche Funktionselemente wie Griffe oder Etikettenhalter angebracht werden können, ohne dass diese über den Rahmen hinausragen. Die Funktionselemente und der Rahmen sind damit derart anordenbar, dass sie eine gemeinsame vertikale Ebene tangieren, welche zum unteren Bereich der Querwand parallel ist.This object is achieved by a transport and storage box with the features of claim 1. This preferably made of sheet metal, in particular of stainless steel or galvanized sheet steel, produced box is substantially cuboid with a bottom, two side walls and two compared to the side walls shorter transverse walls, wherein the bottom, the side walls and the transverse walls are collectively referred to as wall surfaces. At the bottom of a stacking edge is formed; on the upper edge of the side walls and the transverse walls is a circumferential frame. Thus, several similar transport and storage boxes can be stacked. All wall surfaces are at least partially broken, in particular in the form of a hole pattern. The side and transverse walls each have a lower, openwork, and an upper, preferably non-perforated area adjacent to the frame. The upper portions of the side and transverse walls are inclined relative to the lower portions, ie close to the bottom at an acute angle, wherein the interior of the transport and storage box tapers due to this inclination upwards. The skew angle measured in each case between the upper region of the lateral or transverse wall and a plane perpendicular to the bottom is greater in the case of the side walls than in the transverse walls. In other words, the upper portions of the side walls are flattened than the upper portions of the transverse walls. This has the advantage that at uniform width of the circumferential Frame on the transverse walls - in contrast to the side walls - additional functional elements such as handles or label holder can be attached without these protrude beyond the frame. The functional elements and the frame are thus arranged so that they affect a common vertical plane, which is parallel to the lower region of the transverse wall.

Um ein rasches Abfließen von Flüssigkeit aus dem Transport- und Lagerkasten zu ermöglichen, beträgt der Anteil der offenen Flächen an jeder Wandungsfläche vorzugsweise mehr als 10%. Alle Flächen sind derart gestaltet, dass sich keine Flüssigkeit im Transport- und Lagerkasten ansammeln kann. Die Innenflächen sind glatt und hinterschneidungsfrei gestaltet, so dass die Wahrscheinlichkeit des Verhakens von Teilen im Transport- und Lagerkasten minimiert ist. Geschlossene Teilbereiche von Wandungsflächen, insbesondere die oberen, schräg gestellten Bereich der Querwände, sind dazu geeignet, Kennzeichnungselemente dauerhaft zu befestigen, beispielsweise Barcode-Etiketten aufzunieten.In order to allow a rapid drainage of liquid from the transport and storage box, the proportion of open areas on each wall surface is preferably more than 10%. All surfaces are designed so that no liquid can accumulate in the transport and storage box. The inner surfaces are smooth and designed without undercuts, so that the likelihood of catching parts in the transport and storage box is minimized. Closed subregions of wall surfaces, in particular the upper, inclined region of the transverse walls, are suitable for permanently affixing identification elements, for example, for riveting bar code labels.

In bevorzugter Ausgestaltung beträgt der Schrägstellungswinkel des oberen Bereichs der Seitenwand zwischen 12° und 30° und der Schrägstellungswinkel des oberen Bereichs der Querwand zwischen 6° und 18°. Die Höhe des oberen, schräg gestellten Bereichs der Seiten- und Querwände beträgt vorzugsweise mindestens 10% und max. 35% der Gesamthöhe des Transport- und Lagerkastens. Mit diesen Winkel- und Abmessungsverhältnissen wird eine besonders hohe Stabilität des Transport- und Lagerkastens bei gleichzeitig guter Raumausnutzung erzielt.In a preferred embodiment, the skew angle of the upper portion of the sidewall is between 12 ° and 30 ° and the skew angle of the upper portion of the transverse wall is between 6 ° and 18 °. The height of the upper, inclined region of the side and transverse walls is preferably at least 10% and max. 35% of the total height of the transport and storage box. With these angular and dimensional ratios, a particularly high stability of the transport and storage box is achieved with good space utilization.

Eine weitere Erhöhung der Stabilität ist dadurch erreichbar, dass der an der Oberkante der Seiten- und Querwände umlaufende Rahmen einen zur Außenseite hin nach unten verlaufenden Kragen bildet. Dieser Kragen, welcher sich auch zum Angriff einer Hebevorrichtung eignet, ist relativ zum unteren, durchbrochenen Bereich der Seiten- bzw. Querwände bevorzugt um einen Winkel von mindestens 55° und max. 78° schräg gestellt. Der zwischen dem oberen, schräg gestellten Bereich der Seiten- bzw. Querwand und dem Kragen eingeschlossene Winkel beträgt vorzugsweise mindestens 45° und max. 74°. In besonders bevorzugter Ausgestaltung beträgt der Winkel, welchen der Kragen mit einer zum Boden parallelen Ebene einschließt, mindestens das 1,5-fache und höchstens das 3-fache des Schrägstellungswinkels des oberen Bereichs der Querwand.A further increase in stability is achievable in that the frame which circulates on the upper edge of the lateral and transverse walls forms a collar running downwards towards the outside. This collar, which is also suitable for attacking a lifting device, is preferably at an angle of at least 55 ° and max. Relative to the lower, perforated region of the lateral or transverse walls. 78 ° inclined. The one between the upper, inclined angle range of the side or transverse wall and the collar included angle is preferably at least 45 ° and max. 74 °. In a particularly preferred embodiment, the angle which the collar encloses with a plane parallel to the bottom is at least 1.5 times and at most 3 times the skew angle of the upper region of the transverse wall.

Sowohl aus fertigungstechnischen als auch aus Stabilitätsgründen ist es vorteilhaft, den Kragen einstückig aus dem oberen, schräg gestellten Bereich der Seiten- bzw. Querwand, vorzugsweise einstückig mit der gesamten Seiten- bzw. Querwand, herzustellen. Das Material, aus welchem der Kragen gefertigt ist, ist vorzugsweise außenseitig mittels einer nach unten gebogenen Falzung verstärkt, wobei der verstärkte, im Vergleich zum übrigen Kragen eine doppelte Wandstärke aufweisende Bereich des Kragens sich vorzugsweise über mindestens ein Drittel, insbesondere mindestens die Hälfte, der Breite des Kragens erstreckt.Both from production engineering as well as stability reasons, it is advantageous to manufacture the collar in one piece from the upper, inclined region of the side or transverse wall, preferably in one piece with the entire side or transverse wall. The material from which the collar is made is preferably reinforced on the outside by means of a downwardly bent fold, wherein the reinforced, compared to the rest of the collar a double wall thickness having region of the collar is preferably at least a third, in particular at least half of Width of the collar extends.

An den Querwänden des Transport- und Lagerkastens können Griffmulden oder Griffe angeordnet sein. Im Fall klappbarer Griffe ist vorzugsweise eine Arretiervorrichtung vorgesehen, welche zur Festlegung des Griffs in an der Querwand anliegender Position, das heißt in vertikaler Position, geeignet ist. Die Arretiervorrichtung ist in einfacher Weise durch ein mit der Querwand verbundenes oder einstückig mit dieser ausgebildetes Halteblech realisierbar, welches mit einer an der Schwenkachse des Griffs ausgebildeten Arretierkontur zusammenwirkt. Der Griff ist vorzugsweise derart geformt, dass er in vertikaler Position mit der Außenkante des Kragens fluchtet. Das heißt, beim Anstoßen des Transport- und Lagerkastens an einer vertikalen Fläche kommt der Transport- und Lagerkasten gleichzeitig mit dem Rahmen und mit dem Griff mit der vertikalen Fläche in Kontakt. Zusätzlich können in vorteilhafter Weise aus der Querwand hervorragende, insbesondere noppenförmige Erhebungen vorgesehen sein, welche Anschlagflächen bilden, die ebenfalls mit dem äußeren Rand des Rahmens fluchten. Bevorzugt ist jeweils eine derartige Erhebung seitlich des Griffs angeordnet. Dies dient insbesondere dazu, zu verhindern, dass einzelne gleichartige Transport- und Lagerkästen, die beim Transport auf einer Fördereinrichtung aneinander stoßen, sich durch die zwischen den Kästen wirkenden Kräfte aufrichten.On the transverse walls of the transport and storage box recessed grips or handles can be arranged. In the case of hinged handles preferably a locking device is provided, which is suitable for fixing the handle in abutting the transverse wall position, that is in a vertical position. The locking device can be realized in a simple manner by a holding plate connected to the transverse wall or integrally formed therewith, which cooperates with a locking contour formed on the pivot axis of the handle. The handle is preferably shaped so as to be aligned in a vertical position with the outer edge of the collar. That is, when abutting the transport and storage box on a vertical surface of the transport and storage box comes simultaneously with the frame and with the handle with the vertical surface in contact. In addition, can be provided in an advantageous manner from the transverse wall excellent, especially knob-shaped elevations, which form stop surfaces, which are also aligned with the outer edge of the frame. Preferably, in each case such a collection is arranged laterally of the handle. This serves in particular to prevent individual similar transport and storage boxes that abut each other during transport on a conveyor, upright by the forces acting between the boxes.

Der Transport- und Lagerkasten weist vorzugsweise Grundmaße von 400 mm x 300 mm oder hiermit kompatible Grundmaße auf. Insbesondere ist der Transport- und Lagerkasten auf das Euro-Format 800 mm x 1200 mm abgestimmt. Die Stapelkante ist bevorzugt mindestens 15 mm von der Seiten- bzw. Querwand beabstandet und durch eine umlaufende, eine Höhe von mindestens 9 mm aufweisende Schiene gebildet. Der Transport- und Lagerkasten ist damit für den Längs- und Quertransport auf Rollenbahnen geeignet und mit gängigen Kästen sowie Deckeln, auch aus Kunststoff, kompatibel. Solche Kästen werden, bis zu einer Grundfläche von 400 mm x 600 mm, als KLT (Kleinladungsträger) bezeichnet. Kompatibiltät besteht zu insbesondere zu KLT-Systemen nach dem GALIA-Standard oder nach der VDA-Empfehlung 4500 (5. Ausgabe, Februar 2003).The transport and storage box preferably has basic dimensions of 400 mm x 300 mm or hereby compatible basic dimensions. In particular, the transport and storage box is adapted to the Euro format 800 mm x 1200 mm. The stacking edge is preferably at least 15 mm from the side or transverse wall spaced and formed by a circumferential, a height of at least 9 mm having rail. The transport and storage box is thus suitable for the longitudinal and transverse transport on roller conveyors and compatible with common boxes and lids, also made of plastic. Such boxes are called, up to a base of 400 mm x 600 mm, as KLT (small load carrier). Compatibility exists in particular to KLT systems according to the GALIA standard or according to VDA recommendation 4500 (5th edition, February 2003).

In einer Serie gleichartiger Transport- und Lagerkästen wird deren Gewicht auf einen einheitlichen Wert festgelegt. Die Gewichtsabweichung zwischen einzelnen Transport- und Lagerkästen beträgt nicht mehr als 1%. Die Kästen sind für 6-fache Stapelung vorgesehen.In a series of similar transport and storage boxes, their weight is set to a uniform value. The weight deviation between individual transport and storage boxes is not more than 1%. The boxes are intended for 6-fold stacking.

Nachfolgend wird ein nicht einschränkend zu interpretierendes Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung anhand einer Zeichnung näher erläutert: Hierin zeigen:In the following, an embodiment of the invention that is not to be interpreted in a restrictive manner will be explained in more detail with reference to a drawing, in which: FIG.

Ausführliche Beschreibung der ZeichnungDetailed description of the drawing

Die Figuren 1 bis 4 zeigen einen Transport- und Lagerkasten 1, der als Teil eines KLT-Systems beispielsweise dazu geeignet ist, Metallteile aufzunehmen und einschließlich dieser Metallteile durch eine Waschanlage gefördert zu werden. Der Transport- und Lagerkasten 1 ist aus Edelstahl gefertigt und beständig gegenüber Säuren und Laugen sowie temperaturbeständig bis 400°C. Ein Boden 2, Seitenwände 3 sowie Querwände 4 werden zusammenfassend als Wandungsflächen bezeichnet, die den Innenraum des Transport- und Lagerkastens 1 begrenzen. An der Unterseite des Bodens 2 ist eine Stapelkante 5 gebildet, welche zusammen mit einem an der Oberseite der Seitenwände 3 und Querwände 4 umlaufenden Rahmen 6 die Stapelbarkeit mehrerer gleichartiger Transport- und Lagerkästen 1 sicherstellt. Die Stapelkante 5, welche durch eine umlaufende Schiene 7 gebildet ist, hat zudem den Vorteil, dass im Transport- und Lagerkasten 1 befindliche Teile stets von der Fläche, auf welcher der Transport- und Lagerkasten 1 abgestellt ist, abgehoben sind. Dies ist im vorliegenden Fall insbesondere relevant, da der Boden 2 ebenso wie die Seitenwände 3 und die Querwände 4 in Form eines Lochmusters 8 durchbrochen ist. Die Summe sämtlicher Löcher in einer Wandungsfläche 2, 3, 4, allgemein auch als Öffnungsfläche bezeichnet, nimmt mindestens ein Zehntel der gesamten Wandungsfläche ein. Damit ist ein zügiges Ablaufen von Flüssigkeit aus dem Transport- und Lagerkasten 1 gewährleistet.The FIGS. 1 to 4 show a transport and storage box 1, which is suitable as part of a KLT system, for example, to receive metal parts and including these metal parts to be promoted by a car wash. The transport and storage box 1 is made of stainless steel and resistant to acids and alkalis as well as temperature-resistant up to 400 ° C. A bottom 2, side walls 3 and transverse walls 4 are collectively referred to as wall surfaces that limit the interior of the transport and storage box 1. At the bottom of the bottom 2, a stacking edge 5 is formed, which ensures the stackability of several similar transport and storage boxes 1 together with a circulating on the top of the side walls 3 and 4 transverse walls frame. The stack edge 5, which is formed by a circumferential rail 7, also has the advantage that located in the transport and storage box 1 parts are always lifted off the surface on which the transport and storage box 1 is parked. This is particularly relevant in the present case, since the bottom 2 as well as the side walls 3 and the transverse walls 4 in the form of a hole pattern 8 is broken. The sum of all the holes in a wall surface 2, 3, 4, also generally referred to as the opening surface, occupies at least one tenth of the entire wall surface. This ensures a rapid drainage of liquid from the transport and storage box 1.

Der Boden 2 ist im Bereich innerhalb der Schiene 7 durchbrochen, während er im Bereich außerhalb der Schiene 7, d.h. im den Seitenwänden 3 bzw. den Querwänden 4 benachbarten Bereich, als geschlossene Fläche ausgebildet ist. Jede Seitenwand 3 sowie Querwand 4 weist einen unteren, senkrecht zum Boden 2 angeordneten Bereich 9, 10 auf, welcher durchbrochen ist, sowie einen oberen, an dem Rahmen 6 grenzenden Bereich 11, 12, welcher relativ zum unteren Bereich 9, 10 schräg gestellt und nicht durchbrochen ist. Der Schrägstellungswinkel α des oberen Bereichs 11 der Seitenwände 3 sowie der Schrägstellungswinkel β des oberen Bereichs 12 der Querwände 4 sind derart gewählt, dass sich der Innenraum des Transport- und Lagerkastens 1 zum Rahmen 6 hin verjüngt. Der Schrägstellungswinkel β des oberen Bereichs 12 der Querwand 4 ist geringer als der Schrägstellungswinkel α des oberen Bereichs 11 der Seitenwand 3, das heißt die oberen Bereiche 12 der Querwände 4 sind steiler als die oberen Bereiche 11 der Seitenwände 3 gestellt.The bottom 2 is pierced in the region inside the rail 7, while it is formed in the region outside the rail 7, ie in the side walls 3 and the transverse walls 4 adjacent area, as a closed surface. Each side wall 3 and transverse wall 4 has a lower, perpendicular to the bottom 2 arranged region 9, 10, which is broken through, and a upper, adjacent to the frame 6 region 11, 12, which is inclined relative to the lower region 9, 10 and not broken. The skew angle α of the upper portion 11 of the side walls 3 and the skew angle β of the upper portion 12 of the transverse walls 4 are selected such that the interior of the transport and storage box 1 tapers towards the frame 6. The skew angle β of the upper portion 12 of the transverse wall 4 is less than the skew angle α of the upper portion 11 of the side wall 3, that is, the upper portions 12 of the transverse walls 4 are steeper than the upper portions 11 of the side walls 3.

Der Transport- und Lagerkasten 1 weist eine Breite B von 300 mm und eine Länge L von 400 mm als Grundmaße auf. Die mit H bezeichnete Gesamthöhe des Transport- und Lagerkastens 1 setzt sich zusammen aus einer ersten Teilhöhe h1, welche die vertikale Erstreckung der unteren, durchbrochenen Bereiche 9, 10 der Seitenwände 3 und Querwände 4 angibt, sowie einer zweiten Teilhöhe h2, welche die vertikale Erstreckung der oberen Bereiche 11, 12 einschließlich des Rahmens 6 angibt. Die erste Teilhöhe h1 schließt dabei die 9 mm betragende Schienenhöhe Hs der Schiene 7 ein.The transport and storage box 1 has a width B of 300 mm and a length L of 400 mm as basic dimensions. The total height designated H of the transport and storage box 1 is composed of a first part height h 1 , which indicates the vertical extent of the lower, open areas 9, 10 of the side walls 3 and transverse walls 4, and a second part height h 2 , which the indicates vertical extent of the upper regions 11, 12 including the frame 6. The first part height h 1 includes the 9 mm rail height H s of the rail 7.

An den Querwänden 4 befinden sich jeweils ein Etikettenhalter 13, ein Griff 14, sowie zwei noppenförmige Erhebungen 15, die jeweils eine Anschlagfläche 16 bilden. Der Etikettenhalter 13, welcher beipielsweise zur Aufnahme von Kunststoff- oder Karton-Etiketten mit einer Sichtfeldbreite von 200 mm (vgl. VDA-Empfehlung 4500, Ziff. 8.2) geeignet ist, sowie die zu beiden Seiten des Griffes 14 auf dessen Höhe angeordneten Erhebungen 15 sind einteilig aus dem Material der Querwand 3 geformt. Im Bereich über dem Griff 14 und den Erhebungen 15 bietet der schräg gestellte Bereich 12 der Querwand 4 beispielsweise Raum für die Anbringung einer Barcode-Markierung.On the transverse walls 4 are each a label holder 13, a handle 14, and two knob-shaped elevations 15, each forming a stop surface 16. The label holder 13, which, for example, is suitable for receiving plastic or cardboard labels with a field of view width of 200 mm (see VDA recommendation 4500, item 8.2), and the elevations 15 arranged on both sides of the handle 14 at its height are integrally formed from the material of the transverse wall 3. In the area above the handle 14 and the elevations 15, the inclined area 12 of the transverse wall 4 offers, for example, space for the attachment of a bar code marking.

Details des Griffs 14 gehen aus den Figuren 5 und 6 hervor: Ein klappbarer Bügel 17 ist mittels eines an der Querwand 4 befestigten Halteblechs 18 schwenkbar an der Wandungsfläche 4 befestigt. Das Halteblech 18 bildet im Querschnitt (Fig. 5) annähernd rechteckige Aufnahmeöffnungen 19, in welche Bügelendstücke 20 des Bügels 17 eingreifen. Abweichend von der Rechteckform ist in einem Teilbereich der Aufnahmeöffnung 19 eine Rastkontur 21 in Form einer Prägung vorhanden, welche mit einer Rastkontur 22 am Bügelendstück 20 zusammenwirkt. Die damit im Bereich der Schwenkachse S des Bügels 17 gebildete Arretiervorrichtung 24 ist dazu geeignet, den Bügel 17 in vertikaler, am unteren Bereich 10 der Querwand 4 anliegender Position zu fixieren. Hierbei tangieren der Bügel 17, die Anschlagflächen 16 und der Rahmen 6 eine gedachte Ebene E1 (s. Fig. 1), welche orthogonal zum Boden 2 und parallel zum unteren Bereich 10 der Querwand 4 angeordnet ist. Nach oben ist der Schwenkwinkel des Bügels 17 durch zwei seitlich oberhalb der Aufnahmeöffnungen 19 angeordnete Anschlagbügel 23 auf ca. 90° begrenzt.Details of the handle 14 go out of the FIGS. 5 and 6 A hinged bracket 17 is pivotally attached to the wall surface 4 by means of a retaining plate 18 fastened to the transverse wall 4. The holding plate 18 forms in cross section ( Fig. 5 ) approximately rectangular receiving openings 19, in which Strap end pieces 20 of the bracket 17 engage. Notwithstanding the rectangular shape is in a portion of the receiving opening 19, a locking contour 21 in the form of an embossment is present, which cooperates with a latching contour 22 on the temple end piece 20. The thus formed in the region of the pivot axis S of the bracket 17 locking device 24 is adapted to fix the bracket 17 in the vertical, at the lower portion 10 of the transverse wall 4 adjacent position. Here, the bracket 17, the stop surfaces 16 and the frame 6 an imaginary plane E1 tangent (s. Fig. 1 ), which is arranged orthogonal to the bottom 2 and parallel to the lower region 10 of the transverse wall 4. At the top, the pivot angle of the bracket 17 is limited by two laterally above the receiving openings 19 arranged stop bracket 23 to about 90 °.

Die genaue Gestaltung des Rahmens 6 im Bereich der Querwand 4 geht aus Figur 7 hervor: Der Rahmen 6 ist einteilig in Form eines zur Außenseite des Transport- und Lagerkastens 1 schräg nach unten verlaufenden Kragens ausgebildet. Im äußeren Bereich des Kragens 6 ist das Blech, aus welchem dieser geformt ist, zu einem Falz nach unten umgebogen, so dass die Wandstärke des Kragens 6 in diesem als Verstärkungsbereich 25 bezeichneten Bereich verdoppelt ist. Der Verstärkungsbereich 25 erstreckt sich über etwas mehr als die Hälfte der mit b bezeichneten Breite des Kragens 6. Mit dem unteren, vertikalen Bereich 10 der Querwand 4 schließt der Kragen 6 einen Winkel γ ein. Ein Winkel ε = 90° - γ gibt die Schrägstellung des Kragens 6 relativ zu einer zum Boden 2 parallelen Ebene E2 an. Mit δ wird der Winkel zwischen dem Kragen 6 und dem schräg gestellten Bereich 12 der Querwand 4 bezeichnet. Der Schrägstellungswinkel ε des Kragens 6 ist an den Seitenwänden 3 und an den Querwänden 4 identisch. Eine am Kragen 6 ansetzende, nicht dargestellte Hebevorrichtung ist somit geeignet, den Transport- und Lagerkasten 1 wahlweise an den Seitenwänden 3 oder an den Querwänden 4 anzuheben.The exact design of the frame 6 in the region of the transverse wall 4 goes out FIG. 7 From: The frame 6 is integrally formed in the form of an outside of the transport and storage box 1 obliquely downwardly extending collar. In the outer region of the collar 6, the sheet, from which it is formed, bent down to a fold, so that the wall thickness of the collar 6 is doubled in this designated as gain region 25 area. The reinforcing region 25 extends over slightly more than half of the width of the collar 6 designated b. With the lower, vertical region 10 of the transverse wall 4, the collar 6 encloses an angle γ. An angle ε = 90 ° - γ indicates the inclination of the collar 6 relative to a plane parallel to the bottom 2 E2. With δ, the angle between the collar 6 and the inclined portion 12 of the transverse wall 4 is referred to. The skew angle ε of the collar 6 is identical to the side walls 3 and to the transverse walls 4. An attaching to the collar 6, not shown lifting device is thus suitable to raise the transport and storage box 1 either on the side walls 3 or on the transverse walls 4.
