Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a transport container system, in particular for general cargo, which has a stackable transport container, preferably a tray.
  • the stackable transport container is foldable or non-hinged. Such climbs are known and are used in particular for the transport of general cargo such as fruits and vegetables.
  • unit load should be understood to mean a unit of goods to be transported consisting of individual pieces with a size of at least 0.5-1.0 cm.
  • the already known non-hinged and foldable transport containers are made of cardboard, wood or plastic.
  • the folding transport containers are characterized in that their side walls are movable against the inner bottom surface of the transport container, whereby a volume reduction of the transport container is achieved in the empty state.
  • the side wall parts are at a 90 ° angle to the inner bottom surface and are detachably connected to each other by various means.
  • the bottom surface of the transport container has a defined size, to achieve different transport volumes container with different height side wall parts, wherein two or four side wall parts have the same height.
  • the side wall parts on the top surface facing away from the bottom surface on a profile or a device, whereby the transport containers are stackable.
  • the known transport containers have a maximum capacity, which is determined by the size of the bottom surface and the height of the side wall parts. If larger capacity is required, the transport containers must be provided with other, higher side wall parts. Thus, a rapid adaptation of the capacity of the transport container to changing demands of consumers is only partially guaranteed.
  • the size of a given variety of fruits and vegetables varies from harvest season to harvest season, depending on various factors, for example during the growth phase.
  • the size of the fruit or vegetable to be packaged is determined by European Community regulations.
  • a known problem in the transport of general cargo such as fruits and vegetables results from the varying size of the cargo to be transported for the optimal filling of transport containers.
  • the transport containers, in particular trays are machined in certain sizes, which can also be determined by the production plant or determined by the choice of production parameters. It is therefore not possible to quickly change the size of the transport containers and thus their capacity in large numbers in terms of a dependent on the size of the piece optimum filling without large logistics transport problems or a costly conversion of the production and associated high costs.
  • the above-mentioned problem occurs in particular with the known transport containers when relatively easy to produce cardboard packaging for the transport of general cargo such as fruits and vegetables are replaced by more environmentally friendly, but more expensive to produce reusable plastic or a similar material suitable for use.
  • An optimal adaptation of the transport container to the size of the cargo to be transported turns out to be particularly complex and difficult in the known, made of plastic reusable containers.
  • the transport containers are stackable, so that a large number of these containers can be transported in containers, on loading areas, in freight cars or similar transport devices.
  • the piece goods to be transported must not protrude beyond the upper edge of the transport container, because then the transport container would not be stackable or the cargo would be damaged. This results in that the capacity of the known transport container can not be used optimally in many cases.
  • Applicant's reusable transport containers exist in at least ten different embodiments which differ in the height of the side wall parts.
  • the height of the sidewall portions varies from 8 to 28 cm, preferably heights of 8, 10, 13, 15, 16, 18, 20 and 23 cm are used.
  • the bases of these transport containers are preferably rectangular and preferably have an outer dimension of 600 mm x 400 mm. Thus, they correspond roughly to an integer divisor of the basic size of standardized EURO and US pallets. But also transport containers of other sizes such as 400 x 300 mm are used.
  • NL 93 00 986 describes a container which has at least one bottom and one wall element. In this case, projections are provided on the wall element and recesses on the bottom element, by means of which the wall element can be connected to the floor element. NL 93 00 986 further shows how a circumferential one-piece frame can be placed on a container, so that its volume, which is limited by the conversion element and the bottom element is increased.
  • DE 103 26 574 A1 describes a transport container, in particular for the transport of general cargo such as fruits and vegetables, with a hinged or non-hinged, stackable crate, which has a bottom part and four side wall parts, which are structured pressure stable or stable load.
  • a form-conforming to the side wall parts essay is provided, which is placed on top of the side wall portions of the crate.
  • the attachment is designed so that it forms a self-contained frame, which is collapsible over its diagonal corners.
  • the collapsible attachment preferably consists of cardboard and is disposed of after use.
  • the side wall parts of the crate and the side wall parts of the attachment are releasably locked together.
  • US 2004/0222222 A1 describes a collapsible transport container according to the preamble of claim 1, whose height is adjustable.
  • the transport container has a base, which also forms the bottom surface of the transport container.
  • the transport container further includes an opposing pair of long sidewalls and an opposing pair of short sidewalls, on each of which sidewalls extension walls are disposed.
  • the short and long side walls can be laid flat with the extension walls on the base, so that the transport container occupies a minimal volume when empty.
  • the short side walls and the long side walls can be brought into a position perpendicular to the floor surface in which they are locked together via locking elements which are attached to the short side walls.
  • short extension walls can be opened so that they form in a first embodiment, an extension of the short side walls and the long side walls upwards.
  • folded-extension walls over other locking elements which are located in the short extension walls, locked into a frame.
  • the article can be removed and disposed of at the place of delivery.
  • the reusable crate is folded after its emptying and cleaning, for example, and stacked a re-use available, with the re-use either no essays, essays of a different height or the same essays but needed in a different amount. Therefore, in most cases it makes more sense to dispose the crates separately from the essays. This results in multiple costs, on the one hand for the production of the essays and on the other for the separate allocation of crates and essays, the increased cost arises both at the filling of the crates and the crate manufacturer. Even at the emptying of the crates with essays additional costs arise due to the disposal of cardboard attachments.
  • the object of the invention is achieved by a transport container system according to claim 1.
  • a transport container system is characterized by a stackable transport container, in particular a tray, which is constructed from a bottom part and four side wall parts, which are structured in a shape-stable and pressure-stable manner.
  • the stackable crate is preferably hinged, ie collapsible, but may also be non-hinged.
  • the transport container system according to the invention comprises each side wall part of an attachment element, so that the four attachment elements of the individual side wall parts together allow an increase in the capacity of the crate.
  • the attachment elements are such folding or pivoting and / or slidably connected to the respective side wall parts, that the attachment elements in Demand can be brought into a raised or elevated position in which they sit or are supported, for example, on an upper side or upper bearing surface of the respective side wall part.
  • the side wall parts further include guides that hold the attachment elements in the unfolded or raised position. In the retracted or integrated position, the attachment elements can be folded or inserted into the side wall part in such a way that the attachment elements do not protrude substantially beyond the thickness or height of the side wall parts.
  • a particular advantage of the invention results when the side wall parts of the stackable crates are also hinged.
  • the dimensions of the side wall parts and the attachment elements are selected so that the attachment elements are integrated into the side wall parts such that they do not protrude in the integrated state or not significantly beyond the dimensions of the side wall parts.
  • not essential means that the attachment elements can at most extend beyond the dimensions of the side wall parts only so far that a substantially parallel storage of the side wall parts to the bottom part for all side wall parts is possible in order not to adversely affect a lightweight, compact stackability of the collapsed crates , This also includes that necessary for setting up and folding Aufstellmechanismen so integrate into the side wall parts that they do not protrude beyond this in the thickness direction of the side wall parts.
  • the collapsed attachment elements may not or not significantly protrude beyond the thickness of the side wall parts in the upright position of the side wall parts, so that the outer dimensions of the crate are not or not significantly increased.
  • the outer dimensions of the crate are 600 mm x 400 mm, which is one fourth of the base of a standardized Euro pallet.
  • the invention is also applicable to smaller crates, such as crates with 400 x 300 mm dimension.
  • the upper sides of the side wall parts have a special profile, which supports the corresponding peripheral areas on an underside of the bottom part, and thus ensures the stackability of the crates slip-proof.
  • the tops of the attachment elements in the areas in which they touch the bottom of the bottom part of an overlying crate the profile "mimic".
  • the attachment elements have on their upper sides substantially the same profile as the upper sides of the side wall parts or as the inverted profile of the peripheral edge on the undersides of the bottom part.
  • a simple slip-proof stackability is achieved by special design of the corner regions of adjacent side wall parts in climbing this type.
  • at least partial areas of these corner areas must be reproduced by the attachment elements.
  • two adjacent attachment elements touch one another in the corner regions or even be connected / latched to one another.
  • an embodiment of the attachment elements for complete simulation of the corner regions of the side wall parts is possible, it is sufficient in most cases for stability or slip resistance reasons, only to reproduce portions of these corner areas and to dispense with a connection of the attachment elements in the corner areas.
  • the attachment elements can be supported for example in the direction of gravity directly on the upper sides of the side wall parts, wherein guides in directions which are perpendicular to gravity in a plane, can be accomplished by recesses in the side wall parts and / or by the articulated receiving the attachment elements on the side wall parts ,
  • the recesses in the side wall parts are designed so that no additional slides are necessary for their production in the injection molding process.
  • an unfolding of the attachment elements by a 180 ° rotation take place in such a way that the attachment element in its swung-up position in the direction of swiveling up directly is supported on a stop on the side wall part and a reverse rotation by locking lugs, which receive a web or a guide rod of the attachment element, is prevented.
  • the freedom of movement of the attachment element in the direction of the axis of rotation is prevented by appropriately designed support walls, stops and recesses.
  • the tops of the attachment elements must lie in a common plane parallel to the bottom part. It is irrelevant whether the side wall parts have the same height, as this can be compensated by different heights of the attachment elements.
  • both the tops of the sidewall portions and the tops of the tops, i. the respective bearing surfaces are arranged for a arranged above the crate bottom part of another tray, each in a common plane parallel to the bottom part, the invention also includes embodiments of transport containers, in which the tops / bearing surfaces of both the side wall parts and the attachment elements not are each arranged in a common, parallel to the bottom part surface.
  • climbs are conceivable whose shorter side walls, i. the end walls, solely for the support and guidance of the above parked cramps provide.
  • a crate is used whose height of the end walls is half the length of the crate, and the crimping of the crate is carried out so that opposite sidewall portions are in a plane in the lying position, i. the collapsed side wall parts do not overlap, so the heights of the long side wall parts amount to a maximum of half the width of the crate and are therefore, starting from a rectangular crate, lower than the end walls.
  • attachment elements can be provided here on the longitudinal side wall parts. As with the crates, whose side wall parts all have the same height, even such a crate can be increased by appropriately adapted attachment elements in their capacity.
  • the attachment elements can be unfolded from a folded-in position from an inner side facing the ascending opening or from an outer side facing away from the ascending opening. In both cases, it must be ensured that after unfolding the attachment elements these are fixed in their unfolded position so that a stackability is ensured and in the folded position, the outer dimensions of the bottom part in the longitudinal and width direction are not exceeded.
  • the attachment elements can be made of the same material as the side wall parts or else of different material. The same applies to the coloring, for example, the attachment elements in a different color are well used for the application of logos or other information for advertising purposes.
  • attachment elements are provided which are integrated in a folded position in the side wall parts of a tray and in an unfolded position, the capacity, depending on the height of the attachment element, enlarge and thereby ensure the stackability of the crates.
  • a rotary-sliding joint according to the invention is a joint which allows both a rotation and simultaneously or subsequently a translation of the attachment element.
  • the attachment element does not depend on the number of used hinged connections of the attachment element to the side wall parts in the execution of the inventive concept, but only that a variable adaptation of the capacity of the crates to the goods to be transported can be achieved by the attachment elements and this adjustment reversible and can be made repeatable or variably adjustable, the devices for this purpose are captively connected to the tray.
  • attachment elements according to the concept of the invention are captively connected to the tray or to the side wall parts of the tray, this does not mean that they can not be disassembled and reassembled. This may preferably be via a suitable latching respectively. This is advantageous in particular when a damaged attachment element has to be replaced.
  • the attachment elements according to the invention can be used both for crates, the side wall parts of which overlap in the folded state, as well as for those crates, in which the folded side wall parts do not overlap. In the case in which the side wall parts overlap, and regardless of whether the attachment elements are folded or unfolded, the stack height of the folded empty crates increases and their stackability deteriorates. This type of climbing should also be covered by the transport container system according to the invention.
