Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Transport- und/oder LagerbehĂ€lter, mit einem Boden und mittels Scharnieren am Boden angeordneten SeitenwĂ€nden, die in zusammengelegtem Zustand des Transport- und/oder LagerbehĂ€lters bodenparallel angeordnet, in aufgerichtetem Zustand jedoch vertikal zum Boden ausgerichtet sind, wobei jeweils zwei SeitenwĂ€nde ein Seitenwandpaar bilden und ein erstes Seitenwandpaar wenigstens zwei Riegelorgane aufweist, die mittels eines BetĂ€tigungsgliedes von einer in je ein Gegenriegelorgan je einer Seitenwand des zweiten Seitenwandpaares eingreifenden, den aufgerichteten Zustand sichernden Riegelstellung in eine eingriffslose Entriegelungsstellung bewegbar sind, wobei ferner die Riegelorgane eine gemeinsame geometrische Achse aufweisen sowie zum Erreichen der Entriegelungsstellung rotativ um diese geometrische Achse bewegbar sind, wobei weiter die Riegelorgane an einer gemeinsamen körperlichen sowie bodenparallel ausgerichteten Riegelachse angeordnet sind und die Entriegelungsstellung mittels Drehen oder Verschwenken der Riegelachse erreichbar ist, und wobei sich an einen zentralen sowie das BetĂ€tigungsglied tragenden BetĂ€tigungsabschnitt der Riegelachse beidseitig je eine auf Drehmitnahme gekoppelte Tragachse anschließt.The invention relates to a transport and / or storage container, with a bottom and hinges arranged on the bottom side walls which are arranged in a collapsed state of the transport and / or storage container ground parallel, but aligned in the erected state vertically to the ground, in each case two side walls form a pair of side walls and a first pair of side walls has at least two locking members, which are movable by means of an actuator of a locking member in each case a Gegenriegelorgan each side wall of the second side wall pair, the erected condition locking latch position in a non-engaging unlocked position, further wherein the locking members a common geometric axis have as well as to reach the unlocked position are rotatably movable about this geometric axis, wherein further the locking members are arranged on a common physical and ground parallel aligned bolt axis and Ent locking position is achieved by turning or pivoting the bolt axis, and being followed by a central and the actuator bearing actuating portion of the locking axis on both sides depending on a rotational drive coupled support shaft.

GattungsgemĂ€ĂŸe Transport- und/oder LagerbehĂ€lter werden im Allgemeinen auch als Falt- oder Klappbox bzw. -kiste bezeichnet, so dass im Folgenden der Begriff Faltbox verwendet wird. Solche Faltboxen sind aus dem Stand der Technik hinlĂ€nglich bekannt und finden in einfacher AusfĂŒhrung hĂ€ufig Verwendung im Haushalt. In hochwertiger AusfĂŒhrung finden gattungsgemĂ€ĂŸe Faltboxen insbesondere im Groß- und Einzelhandel als MehrwegbehĂ€lter zum Transport und zur PrĂ€sentation von Waren, insbesondere von Obst und GemĂŒse Verwendung.Generic transport and / or storage containers are generally also referred to as folding or folding box or crate, so that in the following the term Faltbox is used. Such folding boxes are well known in the art and often find use in the household in a simple design. In high-quality execution find generic folding boxes especially in wholesale and retail as reusable containers for the transport and presentation of goods, especially fruit and vegetables use.

Bestimmte Logistikdienstleister vermieten gattungsgemĂ€ĂŸe Faltboxen und stellen die Logistikkette der Warenanlieferung und anschließenden RĂŒckfĂŒhrung leerer Faltboxen zur VerfĂŒgung. Hierbei ist es von besonderem Vorteil, dass zusammengelegte leere Faltboxen wesentlich weniger Volumen einnehmen, als aufgerichtete Faltboxen, was insbesondere eine kostengĂŒnstige RĂŒckfĂŒhrung ermöglicht.Certain logistics service providers lease generic folding boxes and provide the logistics chain for goods delivery and subsequent return of empty folding boxes. It is particularly advantageous that folded empty folding boxes occupy significantly less volume than erected folding boxes, which in particular allows cost-effective return.

Insbesondere fĂŒr die im Groß- und Einzelhandel verwendeten Mehrweg-Faltboxen sind zuverlĂ€ssige und belastbare Riegelmechanismen notwendig, die den aufgerichteten Zustand sichern. Gleichzeitig soll die Entriegelung fĂŒr das Lagerpersonal schnell und einfach von der Hand gehen, um das ordnungsgemĂ€ĂŸe Zusammenlegen der Faltboxen vor dem RĂŒcktransport zu gewĂ€hrleisten.In particular for the reusable folding boxes used in the wholesale and retail trade reliable and reliable locking mechanisms are necessary to ensure the erected state. At the same time, the release for the warehouse staff should be quick and easy to go by hand to ensure the proper folding of the folding boxes before the return transport.

Aus dem druckschriftlich belegbaren Stand der Technik ist US 2009/0101640 A1 bekannt, bei welcher die paarweise gegenĂŒberliegenden Stirnseiten der Faltbox mit Riegelorganen versehen sind. Diese greifen in als Öffnungen gestaltete Gegenriegelorgane der sich paarweise gegenĂŒberliegenden SeitenwĂ€nde ein, wobei die Riegelorgane im aufgerichteten Zustand vertikal bezĂŒglich der anliegenden SeitenwĂ€nde beweglich sind. Über ein im Griffbereich der StirnwĂ€nde angeordnetes BetĂ€tigungsglied, welches im aufgerichteten Zustand der Faltbox vertikal hinsichtlich des Boxenbodens auf und ab bewegbar ist, lassen sich die Riegelorgane translatorisch in Entriegelungsstellung bewegen. Diese Lösung ist insoweit nachteilhaft, als die Vielzahl der an der Entriegelungsbewegung beteiligten Bauteile den Mechanismus störungsanfĂ€llig machen und der Entriegelmechanismus aufgrund der Reibung der Bauteile an den SeitenwĂ€nden vergleichsweise schwergĂ€ngig ist.From the printed documentation verifiable prior art is US 2009/0101640 A1 known, in which the pairwise opposite end faces of the Faltbox are provided with locking members. These engage in designed as openings Gegenriegelorgane the pairwise opposite side walls, wherein the locking members are vertically movable in the erected state with respect to the adjacent side walls. About a arranged in the grip region of the end walls actuator, which is vertically movable in the erected state of the Faltbox with respect to the bottom of the case up and down, the locking members can move translationally in the unlocked position. This solution is disadvantageous insofar as the plurality of components involved in the unlocking movement make the mechanism prone to failure and the unlocking mechanism is relatively stiff due to the friction of the components on the side walls.

Weitere Faltboxen sowie verschiedene Riegelmechanismen sind aus GB 2452750 A bekannt, welche aufgrund ihrer Vielzahl von Bauteilen ebenfalls vergleichsweise komplex und störanfÀllig sind.Other folding boxes and various locking mechanisms are off GB 2452750 A known, which are also relatively complex and prone to failure due to their large number of components.

Ein gattungsgemĂ€ĂŸer Transport- und/oder LagerbehĂ€lter wird in der WO 00/66440 A1 vorgestellt. Dort sind jeweils LĂ€ngswĂ€nde des bekannten BehĂ€lters mit zungenartigen VerlĂ€ngerungen ausgerĂŒstet. Endseitig dieser zungenartigen VerlĂ€ngerungen finden sich Riegelorgane, welche zugehörige Gegenriegelorgane an den SeitenwĂ€nden hintergreifen. Die zungenartigen VerlĂ€ngerungen an den LĂ€ngswĂ€nden behindern in aufgerichtetem Zustand das Beladen und die Entnahme von Waren aus dem bekannten Transport-und/oder LagerbehĂ€lter. Außerdem kann bei einem Entladevorgang beispielsweise eine unbeabsichtigte Entriegelung erfolgen.A generic transport and / or storage container is in the WO 00/66440 A1 presented. There are each longitudinal walls of the known container equipped with tongue-like extensions. End of these tongue-like extensions are locking members, which engage behind the counter-locking members on the side walls. The tongue-like extensions on the longitudinal walls hinder in the erected state, the loading and removal of goods from the known transport and / or storage container. In addition, for example, in an unloading unintentional unlocking done.

Ein ebenfalls im Wesentlichen gattungsgemĂ€ĂŸer Transport- und/oder LagerbehĂ€lter wird in der DE 101 37 328 A1 vorgestellt. Hier ist ein von Hand betĂ€tigbares Stellglied vorgesehen, welches auf mindestens eine Rastnase einwirkt. Die Rastnase ĂŒbergreift in einer Verriegelungsstellung einen Rasthaken. Folgerichtig sind die beiden miteinander zu koppelnden SeitenwĂ€nde nur dann miteinander lösbar verbunden, wenn die beschriebene Rastverbindung vorliegt. Dadurch kann der bekannte BehĂ€lter ungewollt in den zusammengelegten Zustand ĂŒbergehen.A likewise substantially generic transport and / or storage container is in the DE 101 37 328 A1 presented. Here, a manually operable actuator is provided, which acts on at least one latching lug. The detent engages over a latching hook in a locking position. Consequently, the two side walls to be coupled to one another are only detachably connected to one another when the latching connection described is present. As a result, the known container unintentionally go into the collapsed state.

Schließlich gehört zum einschlĂ€gigen Stand der Technik noch die EP 2 036 825 A1 . Hier wird in einem AusfĂŒhrungsbeispiel nach den Fig. 13 und 14 Ă€hnlich vorgegangen, wie dies mit Bezug zu der DE 101 37 328 A1 beschrieben wurde. Folgerichtig besteht erneut die Gefahr einer ungewollten Entriegelung und die Möglichkeit, dass der betreffende Transport- und/oderFinally, the relevant prior art nor the EP 2 036 825 A1 , Here, in an embodiment according to FIGS. 13 and 14, the procedure is similar, as with reference to the DE 101 37 328 A1 has been described. Consequently, there is again the risk of unintentional unlocking and the possibility that the relevant transport and / or

LagerbehĂ€lter unbeabsichtigt in den zusammengelegten Zustand ĂŒbergeht. - Hier will die Erfindung insgesamt Abhilfe schaffen.Storage container inadvertently merges into the collapsed state. - Here the invention aims to provide a total remedy.

Der Erfindung liegt das technische Problem zugrunde, einen einfach aufgebauten und den aufgerichteten Zustand sichernden Regelmechanismus zu schaffen und zugleich eine funktionsgerechte Bedienung zur VerfĂŒgung zu stellen, wobei insbesondere ein ungewolltes Zusammenlegen zu vermeiden ist.The invention is based on the technical problem of providing a simply constructed and the erected condition-locking control mechanism and at the same time to provide a functionally appropriate operation available, in particular, an unwanted folding is to be avoided.

Zur Lösung dieser technischen Problemstellung ist ein gattungsgemĂ€ĂŸer Transport- und/oder LagerbehĂ€lter erfindungsgemĂ€ĂŸ dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass das jeweilige Regelorgan als außenumfĂ€nglich auf der Tragachse angeordneter Verschlussnocken ausgebildet ist, welcher einen Teilausschnitt eines an der Tragachse angeordneten vorzugsweise zylindrischen Körpers darstellt, und dass das Gegenriegelorgan als an der Seitenwand ausgebildete und gegenĂŒber deren InnenflĂ€che vorstehende federrĂŒckstellelastische Rastnase ausgebildet ist, welche vom Verschlussnocken in der Riegelstellung hintergriffen wird.To solve this technical problem, a generic transport and / or storage container according to the invention is characterized in that the respective control element is designed as externally circumferentially arranged on the support shaft locking cam, which is a partial section of a arranged on the support axis preferably cylindrical body, and that the Gegenriegelorgan than formed on the side wall and against the inner surface protruding spring restoring elastic locking lug is formed, which is engaged behind by the locking cam in the locking position.

Ein besonderer Vorteil der Erfindung liegt zunĂ€chst einmal darin, dass die Riegelorgane durch eine rotative Bewegung bzw. eine Dreh- oder Schwenkbewegung in Entriegelungsstellung bewegbar sind. Dadurch lassen sich im Gegensatz zu translatorischen Bewegungen (beispielsweise US 2009/0101640 A1 ) die ReibungskrĂ€fte minimieren. Im Zusammenhang mit der gemeinsamen geometrischen Rotationsachse kann folglich der Aufbau des Regelmechanismus gegenĂŒber dem Stand der Technik wesentlich vereinfacht werden.A particular advantage of the invention is first of all that the locking members are movable by a rotary movement or a rotary or pivoting movement in the unlocked position. As a result, in contrast to translational movements (for example US 2009/0101640 A1 ) minimize the frictional forces. Consequently, in connection with the common geometric axis of rotation, the structure of the regulating mechanism can be substantially simplified compared to the prior art.

Hinzu kommt, dass die Verschlussnocken kurz vor Erreichen der Vertikalpositionen der zugehörigen Seitenwand an den Rastnasen vorbeigleiten und diese aus ihrer Ruheposition verdrĂ€ngen. Sobald die fragliche Seitenwand ihre Vertikalposition erreicht hat, schnappen die federrĂŒckstellelastischen Rastnasen zurĂŒck. Dadurch hintergreifen die Rastnocken die Rastnasen, und zwar auch ohne dass der Riegelmechanismus eine BetĂ€tigung erfĂ€hrt. Dadurch lĂ€sst sich der erfindungsgemĂ€ĂŸe Transport- und/oder LagerbehĂ€lter besonders leicht und schnell aufrichten und besteht insbesondere nicht die Gefahr, dass die einzelnen SeitenwĂ€nde ungewollt zusammengeklappt werden.In addition, shortly before the vertical positions of the associated side wall are reached, the closure cams slide past the latching noses and displace them from their rest position. As soon as the side wall in question has reached its vertical position, the spring-return-elastic latching noses snap back. As a result, the locking cams engage behind the latching noses, and even without the locking mechanism undergoes actuation. As a result, the transport and / or storage container according to the invention can be erected particularly easily and quickly and, in particular, there is no risk of the individual side walls being unintentionally collapsed.

Die Riegelorgane weisen eine gemeinsame geometrische Achse auf und sind zum Erreichen der Entriegelungsstellung rotativ um diese geometrische Achse bewegbar. Zum Bewegen der Regelorgane bedarf es folglich lediglich eines die Bewegung ĂŒbertragenden Bauteils, nĂ€mlich der vorgenannten Riegelachse.The locking members have a common geometric axis and are rotatably movable about this geometric axis to reach the unlocked position. Consequently, only one movement-transmitting component, namely the aforementioned locking axle, is required to move the control elements.

Dabei ist das BetĂ€tigungsglied an der Riegelachse angeordnet und wird die Riegelachse durch Verschwenken des BetĂ€tigungsgliedes gedreht bzw. verschwenkt. In der konkreten AusfĂŒhrungsform ist vorgesehen, dass das Gegenriegelorgan eine Rastnase ist, die von dem Riegelorgan in Riegelstellung hintergriffen wird.In this case, the actuating member is arranged on the bolt axis and the bolt axis is rotated or pivoted by pivoting of the actuating member. In the specific embodiment, it is provided that the counter-locking member is a latching nose, which is engaged behind by the locking member in the locked position.

Die Ausbildung des Gegenriegelorgans als Rastnase hat den wesentlichen Vorteil, dass beim Aufrichten der Faltbox die Riegelstellung durch einfaches Verrasten erreicht werden kann, folglich keine BetĂ€tigung des Riegelmechanismus notwendig ist. Insofern lĂ€sst sich die erfindungsgemĂ€ĂŸe Faltbox schnell und sicher aufrichten.The design of the Gegenriegelorgans as locking lug has the significant advantage that when erecting the Faltbox the bolt position can be achieved by simply latching, consequently no operation of the locking mechanism is necessary. In this respect, the folding box according to the invention can be erected quickly and safely.

Eine mögliche Weiterbildung kennzeichnet sich dadurch, dass die hinsichtlich des Bodens vertikale Erstreckung der Rastnase den wirksamen Riegelbereich bildet und das Riegelorgan in Entriegelungsstellung vertikal oberhalb oder vertikal unterhalb des wirksamen Riegelbereiches angeordnet ist.A possible development is characterized in that the vertical extent of the locking lug with respect to the bottom forms the effective locking area and the locking element is arranged in the unlocking position vertically above or vertically below the effective locking area.

Diese AusfĂŒhrungsform ermöglicht es, die Entriegelungsstellung unabhĂ€ngig von der Rotationsrichtung der Riegelorgane, der Riegelachse bzw. des BetĂ€tigungsgliedes zu erreichen.This embodiment makes it possible to achieve the unlocking position regardless of the direction of rotation of the locking members, the bolt axis and the actuator.

In konkreter Ausgestaltung ist vorgesehen, dass das Riegelorgan ein Ausschnitt eines zylindrischen, bevorzugt kreiszylindrischen Körpers ist, wobei dann bevorzugt ist, dass die zum Riegelorgan gewandte FlÀche der Rastnase konturkongruent zur in Riegelstellung benachbarten UmfangsflÀche des Riegelorgans ist.In a concrete embodiment, it is provided that the locking member is a section of a cylindrical, preferably circular cylindrical body, in which case it is preferred that the surface of the locking lug facing the locking member is contour-congruent with the peripheral surface of the locking member adjacent in the locking position.

Die Entriegelungsstellung lĂ€sst sich alternativ auch dadurch erreichen, dass das Gegenriegelorgan mittels Drehen oder Verschwenken des Riegelorgans aus der Riegelstellung bewegbar ist. Bei dieser AusfĂŒhrungsform vollzieht nicht das Riegelorgan selbst die Entriegelungsbewegung sondern wirkt auf das Gegenriegelorgan.Alternatively, the unlocking position can also be achieved in that the counter-latch member can be moved out of the latch position by means of turning or pivoting the latch member. In this embodiment, not the locking member itself performs the unlocking movement but acts on the counter-locking member.

Dabei ist vorgesehen, dass das Gegenriegelorgan bodenparallel aus seiner Riegelstellung verdrÀngbar ist.It is provided that the counter-locking member is parallel to the soil displaced from its locked position.

Eine konkrete Ausgestaltung kennzeichnet sich dadurch, dass die den SeitenwÀnden des zweiten Seitenwandpaares zugewandten StirnflÀchen der Riegelorgane eine SteuerflÀche ausbilden, die mit einer GegensteuerflÀche des zugehörigen Gegenriegelorgans zusammenwirkt, um das Gegenriegelorgan aus der Riegelstellung zu verdrÀngen.A concrete embodiment is characterized in that the side walls of the second side wall pair facing end faces of the locking members form a control surface which cooperates with a counter-control surface of the associated Gegenriegelorgans to displace the Gegenriegelorgan from the locking position.

In den Figuren ist eine Faltbox insgesamt mit der Bezugsziffer 10 versehen.In the figures, a folding box is provided overall with the reference numeral 10.

Die Faltbox 10 umfasst einen Boden 11, ein erstes Seitenwandpaar 12 und ein zweites Seitenwandpaar 13.The folding box 10 comprises a bottom 11, a first side wall pair 12 and a second side wall pair 13.

Das erste Seitenwandpaar 12 wird von den sich gegenĂŒberliegenden StirnwĂ€nden 14 gebildet, das zweite Seitenwandpaar 13 von den LĂ€ngswĂ€nden 15.The first side wall pair 12 is formed by the opposite end walls 14, the second side wall pair 13 of the longitudinal walls 15th

Die sich gegenĂŒberliegenden LĂ€ngswĂ€nde 15 nehmen die sich ebenfalls gegenĂŒberliegenden StirnwĂ€nde 14 im aufgerichteten Zustand der Faltbox 10 gemĂ€ĂŸ Figur 1 zwischen sich auf, wobei jede Stirnwand 14 und jede LĂ€ngswand 15 ĂŒber Scharniere mit dem Boden 11 verbunden sind. Im nicht dargestellten zusammengelegten Faltbox-Zustand liegen die StirnwĂ€nde 14 auf dem Boden 11 auf, die LĂ€ngswĂ€nde 15 werden auf die StirnwĂ€nde 14 gelegt.The opposing longitudinal walls 15 take the also opposite end walls 14 in the erected state of Faltbox 10 according to FIG. 1 between them, wherein each end wall 14 and each longitudinal wall 15 are connected by hinges to the bottom 11. In the unfolded folding box state, not shown, the end walls 14 rest on the floor 11, the longitudinal walls 15 are placed on the end walls 14.

Die LĂ€ngswĂ€nde 15 stĂŒtzen die StirnwĂ€nde 14 mittels StĂŒtzstegen 16 gegen ein Wegklappen nach außen ab. Die StĂŒtzstege 16 sind mit Ausnehmungen 17 versehen, in welche stirnwandseitige Zapfen zur Stabilisierung des aufgerichteten Faltbox-Zustandes eingreifen.The longitudinal walls 15 support the end walls 14 by means of support webs 16 against folding away from the outside. The support webs 16 are provided with recesses 17, which engage in the end wall side pin to stabilize the erected Faltbox state.

Die StirnwĂ€nde 14 tragen einen insgesamt mit 18 bezeichneten Riegelmechanismus, in der hier dargestellten AusfĂŒhrungsform auf ihrer Innenseite. Dieser Riegelmechanismus 18 ist in einer vergrĂ¶ĂŸerten Teilansicht der Stirnwand 14 in Figur 2 detaillierter dargestellt. Der Riegelmechanismus 18 umfasst eine mehrteilige körperliche Riegelachse 19, die bodenparallel ausgerichtet ist und deren zentraler BetĂ€tigungsabschnitt 20 ein BetĂ€tigungsglied 21 trĂ€gt.The end walls 14 carry a generally designated 18 latch mechanism, in the embodiment shown here on its inside. This locking mechanism 18 is shown in an enlarged partial view of the end wall 14 in FIG. 2 shown in more detail. The locking mechanism 18 comprises a multi-part physical bolt axis 19, which is aligned parallel to the ground and the central operating portion 20 carries an actuator 21.

Das BetÀtigungsglied 21 ist in einer Eingriffsausnehmung 22 der Stirnwand 14 angeordnet. Die Eingriffsausnehmung 22 befindet sich im Bereich der stirnwandseitigen Traggriffausnehmung 23. Als Folge dieser benachbarten Anordnung von BetÀtigungsglied 21 und Traggriffausnehmung 23 lÀsst sich das BetÀtigungsglied 21 bequem handhaben.The actuator 21 is arranged in an engagement recess 22 of the end wall 14. The engagement recess 22 is located in the region of the end wall-side Traggriffausnehmung 23. As a result of this adjacent arrangement of actuator 21 and Traggriffausnehmung 23, the actuator 21 can handle easily.

An den zentralen BetĂ€tigungsabschnitt 20 der körperlichen Riegelachse 19 schließen sich beidseitig je eine auf Drehmitnahme gekoppelte Tragachse 24 an (in Figur 2 ist nur eine dargestellt).At the central operating portion 20 of the physical bolt axis 19 close on both sides depending on a rotational drive coupled support shaft 24 (in FIG. 2 only one is shown).

Die Tragachsen 24 erstrecken sich bis in den den LĂ€ngswĂ€nden 15 zugewandten Seitenbereich der Stirnwand 14 und tragen an ihrem Ende je ein Riegelorgan 25, welches vorliegend als außenumfĂ€nglich auf der Tragachse 24 angeordneter Verschlussnocken 26 ausgebildet ist. Die Tragachsen 24 und der BetĂ€tigungsabschnitt 20 sind in von der Stirnwand 14 innenseitig ausgebildeten Lagern 27 drehbar angeordnet.The support shafts 24 extend into the side walls of the end wall 14 facing the longitudinal walls 15 and each have at their end a locking member 25, which in the present case is designed as a locking cam 26 arranged on the outside of the support shaft 24. The support axles 24 and the actuation portion 20 are rotatably arranged in bearings 27 formed on the inside by the end wall 14.

Zum Riegelmechanismus 18 gehört ferner ein lĂ€ngswandseitig angeordnetes Gegenriegelorgan 28, welches vorliegend als von der LĂ€ngswand 15 ausgebildete Rastnase 29 verwirklicht ist. Diese Rastnase 29 steht gegenĂŒber der InnenflĂ€che der LĂ€ngswand 15 vor und wird vom Verschlussnocken 26 in der in Figur 2 dargestellten Riegelstellung hintergriffen. Infolgedessen ist die Stirnwand 14 zwischen Rastnase 29 und StĂŒtzsteg 16 in aufgerichteter Faltbox-Stellung gehalten. Die im aufgerichtetem Faltbox-Zustand vertikale Erstreckung der Rastnase 29 definiert den wirksamen Riegelbereich.The locking mechanism 18 further includes a longitudinal wall side arranged Gegenriegelorgan 28, which is realized in the present case as formed by the longitudinal wall 15 locking lug 29. This locking lug 29 protrudes with respect to the inner surface of the longitudinal wall 15 and is the closure cam 26 in the in FIG. 2 behind the locked position shown. As a result, the end wall 14 is held between detent 29 and support bar 16 in an upright Faltbox position. The vertical extension of the detent 29 in the erected folding box state defines the effective latch area.

Figur 3 ist eine gegenĂŒber der Figur 2 vergrĂ¶ĂŸerte Teildarstellung auf die Innenseite der Stirnwand 14 und der LĂ€ngswand 15. Dargestellt ist insbesondere der Riegelmechanismus 18. Durch Verschwenken des BetĂ€tigungsgliedes 21 ins Innere der Faltbox 10 vollzieht die Riegelachse 19 eine Drehbewegung. Infolgedessen schwenkt der Verschlussnocken 26 in Richtung Faltboxboden 11 und gelangt aus dem wirksamen Riegelbereich der Rastnase 29. Konkret taucht der Verschlussnocken 26 nach unten aus dem wirksamen Riegelbereich heraus. Die Entriegelungsstellung des Riegelmechanismus 18 ist erreicht. FIG. 3 is one opposite the FIG. 2 Enlarged partial view of the inside of the end wall 14 and the longitudinal wall 15 is shown in particular the locking mechanism 18. By pivoting the actuator 21 into the interior of the folding box 10, the bolt axis 19 completes a rotational movement. As a result, the closure cam 26 pivots in the direction Faltboxboden 11 and passes from the effective latch portion of the locking lug 29. Specifically, the closure cam 26 emerges down from the effective latch area. The unlocked position of the locking mechanism 18 is reached.

Eine gegenĂŒber Figur 3 nochmals vergrĂ¶ĂŸerte Ansicht auf Verschlussnocken 26 und Rastnase 29 im gegenseitigen Anlagebereich von LĂ€ngswand 15 und Stirnwand 14 ist in Figur 4 dargestellt. Diese verdeutlicht das zuvor Gesagte nochmals.One opposite FIG. 3 again enlarged view of closure cam 26 and locking lug 29 in the mutual contact region of the longitudinal wall 15 and end wall 14 is in FIG. 4 shown. This clarifies the previously said again.

In der Entriegelungsstellung lassen sich die StirnwÀnde 14 ins Faltboxinnere einklappen und liegen auf dem Boden 11 auf. Im Anschluss daran lassen sich die LÀngswÀnde 15 ebenfalls ins Kisteninnere auf die StirnwÀnde 14 auflegen. Der zusammengelegte Zustand der Faltbox 10 wird so erreicht.In the unlocked position, the end walls 14 can be folded into the Faltboxinnere and lie on the floor 11. Following this, the longitudinal walls 15 can also be placed in the interior of the box on the end walls 14. The folded state of Faltbox 10 is achieved.

In Figur 5 ist parallel zur LĂ€ngswand 15 ein Schnitt durch den Verschlussnocken 26 gelegt. Hieraus wird ersichtlich, dass der Verschlussnocken 26 ein Teilausschnitt eines kreiszylindrischen Körpers ist, der an der Tragachse 24 angeordnet ist. Konturkongruent zur VerschlussnockenumfangsflĂ€che 30 ist die im Riegelzustand vom Verschlussnocken 26 hintergriffene RiegelflĂ€che 31 der Rastnase 29 ausgebildet. Infolgedessen kann der Verschlussnocken 26 bei Verschwenken des BetĂ€tigungsgliedes 21 lediglich unter Überwindung der zwischen den FlĂ€chen 30 und 31 herrschenden Gleitreibung in die in Figur 3 und Figur 4 dargestellte Entriegelungsstellung verschwenkt werden.In FIG. 5 is parallel to the longitudinal wall 15, a section through the lock cam 26 placed. It can be seen that the closure cam 26 is a partial section of a circular cylindrical body which is arranged on the support shaft 24. Contour congruent to the locking cam peripheral surface 30 is the locking surface 31 of the locking lug 29, which is engaged behind by the locking cam 26 in the locked state. As a result, the closure cam 26 upon pivoting of the actuator 21 only by overcoming the prevailing between the surfaces 30 and 31 sliding friction in the in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 shown unlocking position to be pivoted.

Der Riegelmechanismus 18 ist durch nicht dargestellte Federelemente beispielsweise am BetĂ€tigungsabschnitt 20 der körperlichen Riegelachse 19 angeordnete, sich an der InnenflĂ€che der Stirnwand 14 abstĂŒtzende Kunststoffblattfedern, in seiner Verschlussstellung gehalten. Infolgedessen befinden sich die Verschlussnocken 26 grundsĂ€tzlich in ihrer Riegelstellung, es sei denn die Entriegelungsstellung wird mittels Verschwenken des BetĂ€tigungsgliedes 21 aktiv hergestellt.The locking mechanism 18 is held in its closed position by spring elements, not shown, for example, on the actuating portion 20 of the physical bolt axis 19, on the inner surface of the end wall 14 supporting plastic leaf springs. As a result, the closure cam 26 are basically in their locked position, unless the unlocked position is actively made by pivoting the actuator 21.

Beim Aufrichten der Faltbox 10 aus einem zusammengelegten Zustand gleiten die Verschlussnocken 26 kurz vor Erreichen der bezĂŒglich des Bodens 11 gesehenen Vertikalposition der Stirnwand 14 an den Rastnasen 29 vorbei und verdrĂ€ngen diese aus ihrer Ruheposition. Befindet sich die Stirnwand 14 in ihrer Vertikalposition schnappen die federrĂŒckstellelastischen Rastelemente 29 zurĂŒck, so dass die Rastnocken 26 die Rastelemente 29 entsprechend der Figuren 2 und 5 hintergreifen. Die Faltbox 10 lĂ€sst sich somit ohne BetĂ€tigen des Riegelmechanismus 18 besonders leicht und schnell aufrichten.When erecting the Faltbox 10 from a collapsed state slide the locking cam 26 shortly before reaching the respect to the bottom 11 seen vertical position of the end wall 14 of the locking lugs 29 over and displace them from their rest position. Is the end wall 14 in its vertical position snap the spring return elastic locking elements 29 back, so that the locking cam 26, the locking elements 29 according to the Figures 2 and 5 engage behind. The folding box 10 can thus be erected particularly easily and quickly without actuating the locking mechanism 18.

Um die Faltbox zusammenzulegen wird der Riegelmechanismus 18 wie vorbeschrieben betĂ€tigt. Das BetĂ€tigungsglied 21 wird im AusfĂŒhrungsbeispiel nach innen verschwenkt was ein Drehen der Riegelachse 19 und ein Verschwenken der Verschlussnocken 26 in Entriegelungsstellung zur Folge hat. Die den SeitenwĂ€nden 15 des zweiten Seitenwandpaares 13 zugewandten StirnflĂ€chen der Riegelorgane 25 bilden eine SteuerflĂ€che aus, die bei diesem Vorgang mit einer jeweiligen GegensteuerflĂ€che des zugehörigen Gegenriegelorgans 28 zusammenwirkt. Dadurch wird das Gegenriegelorgan 28 insgesamt aus der Riegelstellung verdrĂ€ngt. Nun lassen sich die StirnwĂ€nde 14 auf den Boden 11 legen, woraufhin die LĂ€ngswĂ€nde 15 auf die StirnwĂ€nde 14 umlegbar sind. In diesem zusammengelegten Zustand der Faltbox 10 lĂ€sst sich diese besonders platzsparend transportieren.To collapse the folding box, the locking mechanism 18 is operated as described above. The actuator 21 is pivoted in the embodiment inward which has a rotation of the latch axis 19 and a pivoting of the closure cam 26 in the unlocked result. The side walls 15 of the second side wall pair 13 facing end faces of the locking members 25 form a control surface, which cooperates in this process with a respective counter-control surface of the associated counter-locking member 28. As a result, the counter-locking member 28 is displaced altogether from the locked position. Now the end walls 14 can be placed on the floor 11, whereupon the longitudinal walls 15 can be transferred to the end walls 14. In this collapsed state of the folding box 10, these can be transported in a particularly space-saving manner.

Zusammenfassend wurde eine Faltbox mit einem besonders einfach aufgebauten und aus wenigen Einzelteilen hergestellten Riegelmechanismus 18 beschrieben, die sich auf vorteilhafte Weise leicht und ohne BetÀtigung des Riegelmechanismus aufrichten lÀsst und durch BetÀtigen des Riegelmechanismus 18 zuverlÀssig zusammenlegbar ist.In summary, a folding box has been described with a particularly simple constructed and made of a few items locking mechanism 18 which can be erected easily and without actuation of the latch mechanism advantageously and by pressing the latch mechanism 18 is reliably collapsible.
