Definitions
- the invention relates to a plastic pallet for reusable use in in-house and inter-company goods transport.
- Such pallets consist essentially of a cargo area having pallet deck and the pallet deck located, downwardly directed feet and are made by injection molding of a polymer or less stringent requirements of a regenerated plastic or a plastic mixture.
- the undersides of the feet can be connected by plastic runners with each other, so that entry openings are formed for the tines of industrial trucks.
- a generic pallet is for example in the EP 121 9543 B1 and in the EP 1076011 B1 described.
- pallets are transported by trucks and / or Rollenund chain conveyors, the pallet is made in a very common form in one piece with directly molded runners.
- relatively "soft" plastics or plastic mixtures are generally used in order to achieve a high impact resistance of the entire range. This naturally reduces the stability of the runner.
- the conveyor lines can be dimensioned so that the rollers or chains are not below the massive and relatively stable feet, but in the area of relatively thin runners. By the weight of the cargo the pallet runner is bent upwards at this point, as a result of which the load can slip off the pallet and the pallet can no longer be conveyed due to the deformation and thus becomes unusable.
- the pallet in particular in the area of pallet decks and pallet feet, has a high impact resistance.
- the pallet is less susceptible to damage by forklifts of industrial trucks and falling objects or in case of a fall from the high bay on a pallet corner.
- the tines When transporting the pallets with industrial trucks, it may happen that the tines do not enter the designated entry openings properly, but hit the pallet in the area of the pallet foot or the pallet deck.
- the high impact strength of the material ensures that the pallet base or pallet deck is not damaged and the pallet can still be used.
- a pallet which has a deck made of an impact-resistant material and feet and runners made of a rigid material, wherein the feet are releasably or non-detachably connected to the deck.
- the impact resistance of the plastic material decreases, so that the pallet is not resistant to lateral shock loads in the area of the feet, and thus has a short life in "rough" labor input.
- the invention has for its object to make a recycle-enabled and durable plastic pallet of the type described in more detail so that the pallet deck and the pallet feet made of a "soft", impact resistant material and the runners have the highest possible rigidity.
- the runners should be releasably connected to the pallet body and can be easily solved without tools and without much effort from the pallet body, as soon as a vertical compressive force acts on the pallet skid.
- a plastic pallet consisting of a deck, protruding from the deck and down facing feet of an impact resistant material, and located at the bottom of the feet, the feet interconnecting runners, and which the features of claim 1.
- the pallet body made of an impact-resistant plastic material, z..B. PE or PP, has from the deck protruding and downwardly directed feet, which have a cavity inside and at the bottom receiving openings.
- the pallet has, for example, nine feet which are arranged, for example, in three rows at equal distances from each other. In the example pallet, three pallet feet are connected by a skid.
- the invention can also be applied to pallets with a different number of feet. In certain applications, only certain feet, preferably the outer feet, connected by runners.
- the feet can expediently have at least a partial ribbing inside.
- the feet have an approximately square cross-section.
- the outer feet may have a smaller thickness compared to the middle feet.
- This corresponding surface can advantageously be designed as an undercut.
- the runners are made separately from a preferably rigid composite material, e.g. PP made with a certain glass fiber content, wherein the composite material consists of the same base polymer as the base material of the pallet body. This is particularly advantageous for the recycling of the complete range, since the runners do not have to be separated from the pallet body and disposed of separately.
- a preferably rigid composite material e.g. PP made with a certain glass fiber content
- the runner is designed as an integrally molded hollow chamber profile with stiffening ribs in the interior and a closed top and bottom. Due to the chosen geometry a maximum bending stiffness is possible with minimal use of material. The achievable runner stability is comparable to that which is achieved by a corresponding runner made of solid material.
- the hollow chamber profile of the pallet runner is dimensioned so that it is intelligently and positively covered by the outer sides of the outer feet of the pallet body in the area of the openings, so that no dirt and no water can collect in the hollow chambers. For the empty transport of the pallets, ie a stack of pallets is transported on top of each other without load, must be ensured be that the pallets do not slip off each other.
- the skids are also equipped with respect to the lower surfaces not protruding profilings, so that the profiling interlock positively in the stacking of unladen plastic pallets.
- the closed bottom of the pallet skid is at least partially equipped with profilings, which, however, do not protrude down beyond the closed, planar areas of the runner underside. The transport on rollers and chain conveyors is still given.
- buttons which are installed on roller conveyors for scanning the pallets and are located in the area of the underside of the pallet skid. It can also be provided that the areas that are queried by a button, have no profiling. The profiling also increases the skid resistance of the pallet on roller and chain conveyors.
- the slip resistance that can be achieved by profiling may not be sufficient.
- the underside of the pallet skid may at least partially have a slip-resistant, so-called "anti-slip” coating.
- the anti-slip coating can be advantageously formed by a thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU).
- TPU thermoplastic polyurethane
- Another possibility for making an anti-slip coating on the skid base is a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) or an olefin block copolymer, which is injected directly by means of a known 2K process in the manufacture of runners.
- TPE thermoplastic elastomer
- olefin block copolymer which is injected directly by means of a known 2K process in the manufacture of runners.
- the pallet is not pressed apart during the lifting process by means of the lifting force, and can not be used due to the permanent deformation, but the Runners detach themselves from a specific vertical pressure load independently and without damage from the specially shaped protrusions of the pallet feet.
- the very rigid pallet skids are very advantageous because they do not bend under the vertical pressure load.
- the connection between the pallet base and the pallet skid can only be solved simply and non-destructively if the foot receiving webs and the connection areas of the runner do not change their geometry and are dimensionally stable.
- the pallet body may additionally be provided in the deck area with receiving means for reinforcing elements, e.g. made of steel.
- the pallet When transporting goods inside and outside it can be advantageous if the pallet is equipped with one or more transponders for tracking the goods or the pallet. Therefore, the pallet can be advantageously provided with at least one receiving device for receiving transponders.
- the transponder can advantageously be fastened before connecting the runner to the pallet foot. As a result, he is due to the positive connection between the pallet base and pallet skid from environmental influences protected. In this case, the transponder permanently, eg by gluing, or only for a certain period, eg by clamping, remain in the receiving device. To replace the transponder, the runner is released from the pallet body and the transponder is changed. This can be advantageous, for example, if the transponder is defective or the range of customers with different transponder systems is used in pool use.
- plastic pallet 1 consists of a trained as a horizontal surface Deck 2, nine projecting from the deck 2 and downwardly directed feet 3 and three runners 6.
- the deck 2 and the feet 3 form the pallet body are made in one piece and consist of a impact resistant material, eg PP.
- Fig. 1 the arrangement of the deck 2, the feet 3 and the runners 6 together form the entry openings 7 for the tines of the trucks.
- the outer feet 4 and middle feet 5 each have an approximately quadrangular cross-section. However, other cross-sectional shapes, e.g. circular, possible.
- the outer feet 4 have a reduced width compared to the middle feet 5. In other types of pallets, which may also have a different number of feet and / or runners, all feet may have the same width or there may be reverse width ratios.
- a runner 6 is positively connected to three pallet feet 3.
- outer edges of the outer feet 4 extend to the footprint of the pallet runner 6, and thus are longer than the inner edges of the outer feet 4.
- connecting runners 6 and outer feet 4 is a hollow-chamber web profile 17 (FIG. Fig. 3 ) thereby positively overlapped by the outer edges of the outer feet 4, so that no dirt and no water in the hollow chamber profile 17 can accumulate.
- the deck 2 has on the top of Profiltechniken 8 for better locking of generic pallets in the empty stack.
- the deck 2 and is designed substantially as a closed, planar surface.
- the deck can also have a different structure, for example a grid structure, and / or different locking ribs at the edges or in the middle.
- Each four ribs of the profilings 8 are arranged in a comparatively wide reduction, which is lower than the closed, flat surface of the deck 2, and in each case above one of the runners 6 extends. From the bottom of the respective countersinking, the profiles 8 designed as ribs extend upwards, not higher than to the plane of the two flat surfaces of the deck 2. Thus, boxes or sacks be pushed or pulled over the surface of the pallet without being braked or damaged by obstructive, located on the pallet surface supernatants, or without in turn damage such supernatants of the pallet surface.
- the profilings 8 do not extend in their longitudinal direction as far as the edge of the pallet 1, so that they can be encompassed by the outer contour of the runners of a similar pallet to be stacked on top of the pallet 1.
- Fig. 2 the metatarsus 5 of the pallet 1 shown from below.
- the cavity of the metatarsal 5 forms the receiving area for the middle receiving web 14 of the pallet skid.
- the middle foot 5 has inside a cross rib 10.
- the rib 10 is designed so that it rests positively when connecting the skid 6 with the Palettenfuß 5 on the rib 15 of the skid 6, and thus increases the stability of the pallet 1 in the loaded state becomes.
- the cavity of the midfoot 5 and / or the outer feet 4 can also be designed without ribs or with another rib structure.
- the opposite inner broad side of the metatarsus 5 is not visible.
- projections 9 can also be located there.
- the projections 9 are provided in the example with a radius, so that the connection between the skid 6 and midfoot 5 can be solved more easily, but there are other geometries of the projections 9, such as locking lugs, possible.
- the projections 9 may extend over the entire length of the inner broad side of the middle Palettenfu ⁇ es 5 or consist of several interrupted sections.
- the projections 9 are analogously also on at least one inner broad side of at least one outer foot 4. It is also conceivable the projections 9 in the middle foot 5 or in the outer feet 4 have different geometries, since the geometries of the feet 3 are different.
- a pallet skid 6 according to the invention is shown.
- the skid 6 consists of a closed top 11 and a closed, straight resting bottom 12 and has approximately a trapezoidal geometry.
- the runner 6 may also have other geometries.
- the skid 6 is better overridden by trucks, it can be advantageously provided with so-called Anfahrschrägen.
- Anfahrschrägen At the two end regions is in each case an upwardly directed outer receiving web 13, which is received by a corresponding outer leg 4 of a pallet body.
- the middle receiving web 14 In the middle of the runner is accordingly the middle receiving web 14, which is received by a corresponding metatarsus 5 of a pallet body.
- the middle receiving web 14 which is received by a corresponding metatarsus 5 of a pallet body.
- a cross rib 15 so that the cross rib of the blade 15 in the assembled pallet 1 exactly positive fit against the cross rib 10 of the metatarsus 5, whereby the carrying capacity of the pallet 1 is increased by the more stable middle feet
- the locking portions 16 are shown as undercuts in the upper region, which together with the corresponding projections 9 of the pallet feet 3 form the detachable connection between the pallet body and runners 6.
- the geometry of the undercut 16 must be matched to the geometry of the projections 9 in the pallet base 3.
- the runner 6 has a continuous hollow-chamber web profile 17, whereby a maximum of bending stiffness is achieved in conjunction with the very rigid material.
- the hollow chamber profile 17 three webs 18.
- the number of webs 18 may be different. It is important that the webs 18 are made stable and not have too small a wall thickness.
- additional transverse ribs may be introduced or the ribs 18 may be in a different geometry, e.g. as a bridge framework, be executed.
- the outer receiving webs 13 have centrally a slot 19 for receiving a corresponding rib 20 of the outer feet 4 of the pallet body. This also increases the carrying capacity and the stability of the pallet 1.
- Fig. 4 shows a section through a runner 6 according to the invention.
- the hollow-chamber web profile 17 is shown with three webs 18.
- the webs 18 together with the upper part 11 and the lower part 12 approximately rectangular cavities, which, as shown here, may have rounded corner areas.
- In the area of the bottom 12 has the skid 6 profiling 8, for better locking on the same type pallets 1, wherein four such profiles are shown, which can cooperate with four ribs provided in the deck 2 Profilmaschineen 8.
- the profiles 8 on the underside of the runners 6 do not extend in their longitudinal direction to the edge of the respective runner 6, so that the runner forms a peripheral edge which comprises the four ribs of the upper, provided on the deck 2 Profiltechniken 8, if two similar pallets 1 are stacked.
- an outer receiving web 13 is shown in the rear area.
- a slot 19 for receiving a corresponding rib 20 of an outer foot 4 of the pallet body.
- For better introduction of the web 13 in the foot 4 of the web can be provided at the upper end with radii or chamfers.
- Fig. 5 illustrates the latching mechanism between Paletten Stahl ⁇ en 3 and pallet skid 6 in detail.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Palette aus Kunststoff für den Mehrweg-Einsatz im innerbetrieblichen und zwischenbetrieblichen Warentransport. Solche Paletten bestehen im Wesentlichen aus einem eine Ladefläche aufweisenden Palettendeck und am Palettendeck befindliche, nach unten gerichtete Füße und werden mittels Spritzgießen aus einem Polymer oder bei geringeren Anforderungen aus einem Regenerat-Kunststoff oder einem Kunststoff-Gemisch hergestellt. Zusätzlich können die Unterseiten der Füße durch Kufen aus Kunststoff mit einander verbunden sein, so dass Einfahröffnungen für die Zinken von Flurförderzeugen gebildet werden. Eine gattungsgemäße Palette ist beispielsweise in der
Beim innerbetrieblichen Transport werden mit Kufen versehene Kunststoff-Paletten mittels Flurförderzeugen und / oder Rollenund Kettenförderen transportiert, wobei die Palette in einer sehr verbreiteten Form einstückig mit direkt angespritzten Kufen hergestellt wird.For in-house transport provided with skids plastic pallets are transported by trucks and / or Rollenund chain conveyors, the pallet is made in a very common form in one piece with directly molded runners.
Zur Herstellung entsprechender einstückiger Kunststoff-Paletten werden in der Regel relativ "weiche" Kunststoffe bzw. KunststoffGemische verwendet, um eine hohe Schlagzähigkeit der Gesamtpalette zu erzielen. Dadurch wird naturgemäß die Stabilität der Kufe reduziert. Bei dem Transport von beladenen Paletten auf Rollen- und Kettenförderen können die Förderstraßen so bemessen sein, dass sich die Rollen bzw. Ketten nicht unterhalb der massiven und relativ stabilen Füße befinden, sondern im Bereich der relativ dünnen Kufen. Durch das Gewicht der Ladung wird die Palettenkufe an dieser Stelle nach oben gebogen, wodurch die Ladung von der Palette rutschen kann und die Palette aufgrund der Verformung nicht mehr förderbar ist, und damit unbrauchbar wird.For the production of corresponding one-piece plastic pallets, relatively "soft" plastics or plastic mixtures are generally used in order to achieve a high impact resistance of the entire range. This naturally reduces the stability of the runner. When transporting loaded pallets on roller and chain conveyors, the conveyor lines can be dimensioned so that the rollers or chains are not below the massive and relatively stable feet, but in the area of relatively thin runners. By the weight of the cargo the pallet runner is bent upwards at this point, as a result of which the load can slip off the pallet and the pallet can no longer be conveyed due to the deformation and thus becomes unusable.
Es ist sehr vorteilhaft, wenn die Palette, insbesondere im Bereich Palettendecks und der Palettenfüße, eine hohe Schlagzähigkeit aufweist. Dadurch ist die Palette unempfindlicher gegen Beschädigungen durch Zinken von Flurförderzeugen und durch herabfallende Gegenstände oder bei einem Fall aus dem Hochregal auf eine Paletten-Ecke. Beim Transport der Paletten mit Flurförderzeugen kann es passieren, dass die Zinken nicht einwandfrei in die dafür vorgesehenen Einfahröffnungen einfahren, sondern die Palette im Bereich des Palettenfußes oder des Palettendecks treffen. Durch die hohe Schlagzähigkeit des Materials ist gewährleistet, dass der Palettenfuß bzw. das Palettendeck nicht beschädigt wird und die Palette weiterhin benutzt werden kann.It is very advantageous if the pallet, in particular in the area of pallet decks and pallet feet, has a high impact resistance. As a result, the pallet is less susceptible to damage by forklifts of industrial trucks and falling objects or in case of a fall from the high bay on a pallet corner. When transporting the pallets with industrial trucks, it may happen that the tines do not enter the designated entry openings properly, but hit the pallet in the area of the pallet foot or the pallet deck. The high impact strength of the material ensures that the pallet base or pallet deck is not damaged and the pallet can still be used.
Zur Verbesserung der Stabilität werden die Kufen von Kunststoff-Paletten durch Stahleinlagen verstärkt. Allerdings sind Stahleinlagen sehr nachteilig für das Recycling der Kunststoff-Paletten, da sie vorher entfernt werden müssen.To improve stability, the skids of plastic pallets are reinforced by steel inserts. However, steel inserts are very detrimental to the recycling of plastic pallets, as they must be removed beforehand.
Um die Stabilität der Palettenkufe zu erhöhen, werden Paletten insgesamt oder zum Teil aus Materialien gefertigt, die eine hohe Biegesteifigkeit aufweisen und teilweise mit Fasern verstärkt sind. Es ist z.B. eine Palette bekannt, die ein Deck aus einem schlagzähen Material und Füße und Kufen aus einem biegesteifen Material besitzt, wobei die Füße lösbar oder unlösbar mit dem Deck verbunden sind. Jedoch verringert sich mit steigender Erhöhung der Biegesteifigkeit die Schlagzähigkeit des Kunststoffmaterials, so dass die Palette nicht resistent gegen seitliche Stoßbelastungen im Bereich der Füße ist, und damit nur eine geringe Lebensdauer im "rauen" Arbeitseinsatz aufweist.In order to increase the stability of the pallet skid, all or part of the pallets are made of materials that have high flexural strength and are partially reinforced with fibers. For example, a pallet is known which has a deck made of an impact-resistant material and feet and runners made of a rigid material, wherein the feet are releasably or non-detachably connected to the deck. However, as the flexural rigidity increases, the impact resistance of the plastic material decreases, so that the pallet is not resistant to lateral shock loads in the area of the feet, and thus has a short life in "rough" labor input.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine recycle-fähige und langlebige Kunststoff-Palette der eingangs näher beschriebenen Art so zu gestalten, dass das Palettendeck und die Palettenfüße aus einem "weichen", schlagzähen Material bestehen und die Kufen eine höchstmögliche Steifigkeit aufweisen. Zusätzlich sollen die Kufen lösbar mit dem Palettenkörper verbunden sein und ohne Hilfsmittel und ohne großen Kraftaufwand einfach von dem Palettenkörper gelöst werden können, sobald eine vertikale Druckkraft auf die Palettenkufe wirkt.The invention has for its object to make a recycle-enabled and durable plastic pallet of the type described in more detail so that the pallet deck and the pallet feet made of a "soft", impact resistant material and the runners have the highest possible rigidity. In addition, the runners should be releasably connected to the pallet body and can be easily solved without tools and without much effort from the pallet body, as soon as a vertical compressive force acts on the pallet skid.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch eine nach dem Anspruch 1 ausgebildeten Palette gelöst.This object is achieved by a trained according to
Die Unteransprüche beinhalten vorteilhafte und zweckmäßige Weiterbildungen der Erfindung.The subclaims contain advantageous and expedient developments of the invention.
Die Aufgabe wird durch eine Kunststoff-Palette gelöst, die aus einem Deck, aus von dem Deck abstehenden und nach unten gerichteten Füßen aus einem schlagzähen Material, und aus an der Unterseite der Füße befindlichen, die Füße miteinander verbindenden Kufen besteht, und welche die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 aufweist.The object is achieved by a plastic pallet, consisting of a deck, protruding from the deck and down facing feet of an impact resistant material, and located at the bottom of the feet, the feet interconnecting runners, and which the features of
Der Palettenkörper aus einem schlagzähen Kunststoffmaterial, z..B. PE oder PP, besitzt von dem Deck abstehende und nach unten gerichtete Füße, die innen einen Hohlraum und an der Unterseite Aufnahmeöffnungen aufweisen. Die Palette besitzt beispielsweise neun Füße, die beispielsweise in drei Reihen mit gleichen Abständen zueinander angeordnet sind. Bei der Beispiel-Palette sind jeweils drei Palettenfüße durch eine Kufe miteinander verbunden. Die Erfindung kann auch für Paletten mit einer anderen Fuß-Anzahl angewendet werden. Bei bestimmten Anwendungen werden nur bestimmte Füße, vorteilhaft die Auβenfüße, über Kufen miteinander verbunden. Zweckmäßig können die Füße innen zumindest eine partielle Verrippung aufweisen. Die Füße haben einen annähernd viereckigen Querschnitt. Die äußeren Füße können im Vergleich zu den mittleren Füßen eine geringere Dicke aufweisen. Im unteren Bereich besitzen mindestens die äußeren Füße auf mindestens einer ihrer Breitseiten, vorzugsweise der äußeren Breitseite, an der Innenfläche speziell ausgeformte Vorsprünge, die so bemessen sind, dass mindestens eine korrespondierende Fläche der nach oben gerichteten Fußaufnahme-Stege der Kufen mit ihnen verrastet und eine formschlüssige Verbindung zwischen Palettenfüßen und Palettenkufen entsteht. Diese korrespondierende Fläche kann vorteilhaft als Hinterschnitt ausgeführt sein.The pallet body made of an impact-resistant plastic material, z..B. PE or PP, has from the deck protruding and downwardly directed feet, which have a cavity inside and at the bottom receiving openings. The pallet has, for example, nine feet which are arranged, for example, in three rows at equal distances from each other. In the example pallet, three pallet feet are connected by a skid. The invention can also be applied to pallets with a different number of feet. In certain applications, only certain feet, preferably the outer feet, connected by runners. The feet can expediently have at least a partial ribbing inside. The feet have an approximately square cross-section. The outer feet may have a smaller thickness compared to the middle feet. At the bottom, at least the outer feet on at least one of its broad sides, preferably the outer broad side, on the inner surface specially shaped projections which are dimensioned so that at least one corresponding surface of the upwardly directed foot receiving webs of skids locked with them and a positive connection between pallet feet and pallet skids arises. This corresponding surface can advantageously be designed as an undercut.
Die Kufen werden separat aus einem möglichst biegesteifen Verbundwerkstoff, z.B. PP mit einem bestimmten Glasfaseranteil, gefertigt, wobei der Verbundwerkstoff aus dem gleichen Basispolymer wie das Grundmaterial des Palettenkörpers besteht. Dieses ist besonders vorteilhaft für das Recycling der kompletten Palette, da die Kufen nicht erst vom Palettenkörper getrennt und separat entsorgt werden müssen.The runners are made separately from a preferably rigid composite material, e.g. PP made with a certain glass fiber content, wherein the composite material consists of the same base polymer as the base material of the pallet body. This is particularly advantageous for the recycling of the complete range, since the runners do not have to be separated from the pallet body and disposed of separately.
Die Kufe ist als ein einstückig gespritztes Hohlkammerprofil mit Versteifungsrippen im Inneren und einer geschlossenen Oberund Unterseite ausgeführt. Durch die gewählte Geometrie ist bei minimalen Materialeinsatz eine maximale Biegesteifgkeit möglich. Die erzielbare Kufen-Stabilität ist vergleichbar mit derjenigen, die durch eine entsprechende Kufe aus Vollmaterial erreicht wird.
Das Hohlkammerprofil der Palettenkufe ist so bemessen, dass es im Bereich der Öffnungen verständig und formschlüssig von den Außenseiten der Außenfüße des Palettenkörpers abgedeckt wird, so dass sich keine Verschmutzungen und kein Wasser in den Hohlkammern sammeln können.
Für den Leertransport der Paletten, d.h. ein Stapel Paletten wird übereinanderstehend ohne Ladung transportiert, muss sichergestellt sein, dass die Paletten nicht von einander rutschen. Dieses kann vorteilhaft dadurch gewährleistet werden, dass das Deck der Kunststoff-Palette an mindestens zwei Stellen, auf denen die Kufen der darüber stehenden Palette stehen, gegenüber den oberen Flächen nicht vorstehende Profilierungen aufweisen. Um eine bessere Arretierung der darüber stehenden Palette zu erzielen, kann es vorteilhaft sein, dass die Kufen ebenfalls mit gegenüber den unteren Flächen nicht vorstehenden Profilierungen ausgestattet sind, so dass die Profilierungen bei der Stapelung unbeladener Kunststoff-Paletten formschlüssig ineinandergreifen. Mit anderen Worten kann es für diesen Zweck vorteilhaft sein, dass die geschlossene Unterseite der Palettenkufe mindestens partiell mit Profilierungen ausgestattet ist, die jedoch nach unten nicht über die geschlossenen, planen Bereiche der Kufenunterseite hinausstehen. Das Transportieren auf Rollenund Kettenfördereren ist weiterhin gegeben. Auch wird durch diese Profilierungen die Lesbarkeit der Taster, die auf Rollenbahnen zur Abfrage der Paletten installiert sind und sich im Bereich der Unterseite der Palettenkufe befinden, nicht beeinträchtigt. Es kann auch vorgesehen sein, dass die Bereiche, die durch einen Taster abgefragt werden, keine Profilierungen aufweisen. Durch die Profilierung wird auch die Rutschfestigkeit der Palette auf Rollen- und Kettenförderen erhöht.The runner is designed as an integrally molded hollow chamber profile with stiffening ribs in the interior and a closed top and bottom. Due to the chosen geometry a maximum bending stiffness is possible with minimal use of material. The achievable runner stability is comparable to that which is achieved by a corresponding runner made of solid material.
The hollow chamber profile of the pallet runner is dimensioned so that it is intelligently and positively covered by the outer sides of the outer feet of the pallet body in the area of the openings, so that no dirt and no water can collect in the hollow chambers.
For the empty transport of the pallets, ie a stack of pallets is transported on top of each other without load, must be ensured be that the pallets do not slip off each other. This can be advantageously ensured by the fact that the deck of the plastic pallet at at least two points, on which the runners of the pallet above stand, with respect to the upper surfaces have not projecting profiles. In order to achieve a better locking of the overlying pallet, it may be advantageous that the skids are also equipped with respect to the lower surfaces not protruding profilings, so that the profiling interlock positively in the stacking of unladen plastic pallets. In other words, it may be advantageous for this purpose that the closed bottom of the pallet skid is at least partially equipped with profilings, which, however, do not protrude down beyond the closed, planar areas of the runner underside. The transport on rollers and chain conveyors is still given. These profilings also do not affect the readability of the buttons, which are installed on roller conveyors for scanning the pallets and are located in the area of the underside of the pallet skid. It can also be provided that the areas that are queried by a button, have no profiling. The profiling also increases the skid resistance of the pallet on roller and chain conveyors.
Für einige Anwendungen ist unter Umständen die durch die Profilierung realisierbare Rutschfestigkeit nicht ausreichend. Zur Erhöhung der Rutschfestigkeit kann die Unterseite der Palettenkufe mindestens partiell eine rutschhemmende, so genannte "Antirutsch"-Beschichtung aufweisen. Die Antirutsch-Beschichtung kann dabei vorteilhaft durch ein thermoplastisches Polyurethan (TPU) gebildet werden. Eine andere Möglichkeit zur Biidung einer Antirutsch-Beschichtung auf der Kufenunterseite stellt ein thermoplastisches Elastomer (TPE) oder ein Olefin Block Copolymer dar, das mittels eines an sich bekannten 2K-Verfahrens direkt bei der Herstellung der Kufen mitangespritzt wird. Um eine gleichmäßige Antirutsch-Wirkung zu erzielen, kann es vorteilhaft sein, dass die Palettenkufe an der Unterseite keine Profilierungen aufweist.For some applications, the slip resistance that can be achieved by profiling may not be sufficient. To increase the slip resistance, the underside of the pallet skid may at least partially have a slip-resistant, so-called "anti-slip" coating. The anti-slip coating can be advantageously formed by a thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU). Another possibility for making an anti-slip coating on the skid base is a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) or an olefin block copolymer, which is injected directly by means of a known 2K process in the manufacture of runners. To achieve a uniform anti-slip effect, it can be advantageous be that the pallet skid on the bottom has no profiles.
Wenn eine nach Anspruch 1 hergestellte Palette mit einem Flurförderzeug transportiert werden soll, und die Räder des Flurförderzeuges stehen genau auf den Palettenkufen, wird die Palette nicht beim Hubvorgang mittels der Hubkraft auseinander gedrückt, und kann aufgrund der bleibenden Verformungen nicht mehr eingesetzt werden, sondern die Kufen lösen sich ab einer bestimmten vertikalen Druckbelastung selbstständig und beschädigungsfrei aus den speziell ausgeformten Vorsprüngen der Palettenfüße.If a produced according to claim 1 pallet to be transported with a truck, and the wheels of the truck are exactly on the pallet skids, the pallet is not pressed apart during the lifting process by means of the lifting force, and can not be used due to the permanent deformation, but the Runners detach themselves from a specific vertical pressure load independently and without damage from the specially shaped protrusions of the pallet feet.
Die sehr biegesteifen Palettenkufen sind dabei sehr vorteilhaft, da sie sich unter der vertikalen Druckbelastung nicht durchbiegen. Die Verbindung zwischen Palettenfuß und Palettenkufe kann nur einfach und zerstörungsfrei gelöst werden, wenn die Fußaufnahme-Stege und die Anschlussbereiche der Kufe ihre Geometrie nicht verändern und formstabil sind.The very rigid pallet skids are very advantageous because they do not bend under the vertical pressure load. The connection between the pallet base and the pallet skid can only be solved simply and non-destructively if the foot receiving webs and the connection areas of the runner do not change their geometry and are dimensionally stable.
Um die Stabilität und insbesondere die Tragfähigkeit der gesamten Palette zu erhöhen, kann der Palettenkörper zusätzlich im Deckbereich mit Aufnahmeeinrichtungen für Verstärkungselemente, z.B. aus Stahl, ausgestattet sein.In order to increase the stability and in particular the load-bearing capacity of the entire pallet, the pallet body may additionally be provided in the deck area with receiving means for reinforcing elements, e.g. made of steel.
Beim inner- und außerbetrieblichen Transport von Waren kann es von Vorteil sein, wenn die Palette mit einem oder mehreren Transpondern zum Nachverfolgen der Ware bzw. der Palette ausgestattet ist. Deshalb kann die Palette vorteilhaft mit mindestens einer Aufnahmeeinrichtung zur Aufnahme von Transpondern versehen sein.When transporting goods inside and outside it can be advantageous if the pallet is equipped with one or more transponders for tracking the goods or the pallet. Therefore, the pallet can be advantageously provided with at least one receiving device for receiving transponders.
Der Transponder kann vorteilhaft vor dem Verbinden der Kufe mit dem Palettenfuß befestigt werden. Dadurch ist er durch den Formschluss zwischen Palettenfuß und Palettenkufe vor Umwelteinflüssen geschützt. Dabei kann der Transponder dauerhaft, z.B. durch Verkleben, oder nur für einen bestimmten Zeitraum, z.B. durch Klemmen, in der Aufnahmeeinrichtung verbleiben. Zum Tausch der Transponder wird die Kufe vom Palettenkörper gelöst und der Transponder gewechselt. Dieses kann beispielsweise vorteilhaft sein, wenn der Transponder defekt ist oder im Pool-Einsatz die Palette von Kunden mit unterschiedlichen Transponder-Systemen genutzt wird.The transponder can advantageously be fastened before connecting the runner to the pallet foot. As a result, he is due to the positive connection between the pallet base and pallet skid from environmental influences protected. In this case, the transponder permanently, eg by gluing, or only for a certain period, eg by clamping, remain in the receiving device. To replace the transponder, the runner is released from the pallet body and the transponder is changed. This can be advantageous, for example, if the transponder is defective or the range of customers with different transponder systems is used in pool use.
