Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Ladungsträgersystem, insbesondere ein modulares Ladungsträgersystem, zum Transport und/oder zur Lagerung von Ladungsgut, vorzugsweise eines oder mehrerer Bauteile für die Automobil- und/oder Nutzfahrzeugindustrie.The invention relates to a load carrier system, in particular a modular load carrier system, for the transport and / or storage of cargo, preferably one or more components for the automotive and / or commercial vehicle industry.

Aus US 5,762,222 ist ein Container bekannt, der ein Bodenteil mit einer Aufbaustruktur aufweist. Die Aufbaustruktur wird durch vier Eckkonstruktionen gebildet, die über Strebenelemente miteinander verbunden sind. Die vier Eckkonstruktion weisen jeweils eine L-förmige Eisenplatte und eine 7-förmige Eisenplatte auf, die miteinander verbunden sind. Zum Stand der Technik ist ferner hinzuweisen auf die DE 70 32 853 U , die WO 03/018412 A1 , die GB 1 099 356 A , die US 2004/131441 A1 , die US 2006/013647 A1 und die DE 10 2004 004959 A1 , wobei die DE 7032853 U alle Merkmale des Oberbegriffs des Anspruchs 1 offenbart.Out US 5,762,222 For example, a container is known which has a bottom part with a body structure. The body structure is formed by four corner structures, which are connected to each other via strut elements. The four corner structures each have an L-shaped iron plate and a 7-shaped iron plate connected to each other. The prior art is also to be pointed to the DE 70 32 853 U , the WO 03/018412 A1 , the GB 1 099 356 A , the US 2004/131441 A1 , the US 2006/013647 A1 and the DE 10 2004 004959 A1 , where the DE 7032853 U all features of the preamble of claim 1 disclosed.

Aus DE 10 2004 004 959 A1 ist ein Behälter zum Transport und/oder zur Lagerung von Gütern bekannt. Der Behälter umfasst eine Tragstruktur, die ein Bodenelement, mehrere Eckelemente und mehrere Verbindungselemente umfasst. Die die Tragstruktur bildenden Elemente sind lösbar miteinander verbunden und bilden ein Baukastensystem. Das Tragsystem basiert auf einem relativ aufwendigen und teueren Eckprofil, das als Hohlprofil mit zwei rechtwinklig zueinander ausgerichteten Schenkeln ausgeführt ist.Out DE 10 2004 004 959 A1 a container for the transport and / or storage of goods is known. The container comprises a support structure comprising a bottom element, a plurality of corner elements and a plurality of connecting elements. The support structure forming elements are detachably connected together and form a modular system. The support system is based on a relatively complex and expensive corner profile, which is designed as a hollow profile with two legs aligned at right angles to each other.

Eine Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, ein alternatives und/oder verbessertes Ladungsträgersystem zu schaffen.An object of the invention is to provide an alternative and / or improved charge carrier system.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch die Merkmale des Hauptanspruchs gelöst.This object is solved by the features of the main claim.

Erfindungsgemäß wird ein Ladungsträgersystem zum Transport und/oder zur Lagerung von Ladungsgut, vorzugsweise eines oder mehrerer Bauteile für die Automobil- und/oder Nutzfahrzeugindustrie bereitgestellt. Das Ladungsträgersystem eignet sich besonders für den externen Einsatz.According to the invention, a charge carrier system is provided for the transport and / or storage of cargo, preferably one or more components for the automotive and / or commercial vehicle industry. The charge carrier system is particularly suitable for external use.

Außerdem ist das Ladungsträgersystem für eine Nutzlast von vorzugsweise zumindest 250, 500, 750 oder 1000 kg ausgelegt, zuzüglich zweckmäßig Taragewicht von z.B. zumindest 100, 200, 250, 300 oder 400 kg.In addition, the load carrier system is designed for a payload of preferably at least 250, 500, 750 or 1000 kg, plus appropriate tare weight of e.g. at least 100, 200, 250, 300 or 400 kg.

Ferner ist das Ladungsträgersystem zweckmäßig ausgelegt für eine 2- oder 3-fache Stapelung (z.B. auf dem Trailer) und/oder für eine Auflast von zumindest 250, 500, 750, 1000, 1500, 2000 oder gar 2500 kg.Furthermore, the load carrier system is suitably designed for 2 or 3-fold stacking (for example on the trailer) and / or for a load of at least 250, 500, 750, 1000, 1500, 2000 or even 2500 kg.

Das Ladungsträgersystem umfasst ein Bodenteil und eine vorzugsweise mit dem Bodenteil verbundene Aufbaustruktur, die Stehelemente und Strebenelemente umfasst.The load carrier system comprises a bottom part and a body structure preferably connected to the bottom part, which comprises standing elements and strut elements.

Die die Aufbaustruktur bildenden Elemente sind jeweils mit U-profilförmigen Verbindungselementen lösbar verbunden, z.B. mittels Schraubverbindungen. Zweckmäßig können somit die die Aufbaustruktur bildenden Elemente jeweils über die U-profilförmigen Verbindungselemente lösbar zusammengefügt werden. Vorzugsweise wird dadurch ein modular zusammensetzbares Ladungsträgersystem geschaffen und/oder die Realisierung von Ladungsträgersystemen ermöglicht, die innenraumspezifisch und/oder in Bezug auf ihre Außenabmessungen variabel gestaltbar sind und somit vorteilhaft an unterschiedliches Ladungsgut angepasst werden können.The structural elements forming the elements are each releasably connected to U-shaped connecting elements, for example by means of screw. Suitably, therefore, the elements forming the body structure can be detachably joined together via the U-profile-shaped connecting elements. Preferably, this creates a modularly assembled charge carrier system and / or makes it possible to realize charge carrier systems which can be configured variably in terms of interior space and / or with respect to their outer dimensions and thus can be advantageously adapted to different cargo.

Das Ladungsträgersystem ist vorzugsweise zerlegbar und wieder zusammensetzbar. Mittels des Ladungsträgersystems ist insbesondere eine modulare, schnelle und kostengünstige Anpassung an unterschiedliches Ladungsgut möglich, z.B. in Bezug auf Größe (Abmessungen), Gewicht und Form.The charge carrier system is preferably separable and reassemblable. By means of the charge carrier system in particular a modular, fast and cost-effective adaptation to different cargo is possible, e.g. in terms of size (dimensions), weight and shape.

Vorteilhaft ist, dass es sich bei den U-profilförmigen Verbindungselementen um standardisierte und somit insbesondere kostengünstige Profile handeln kann. Vorteilhaft ist ferner die Ermöglichung der Standardisierung von Ladungsträgersystemen, insbesondere deren Abmessungen. Ferner sind die verlängerte Nutzungsdauer des Ladungsträgersystems über mehrere Modellzyklen, z.B. Kraftfahrzeugmodellzyklen, und die mögliche Flexibilität innerhalb eines Modellzyklus von Vorteil. Außerdem ist die mögliche Verkürzung der Entwicklungs- und Beschaffungszeit für ein passendes Ladungsträgersystem z.B. bei einem Modellwechsel vorteilhaft. Außerdem sind z.B. die Instandhaltungskosten und -zeiten im Reparaturfall vorteilhaft, aufgrund einfachem und schnellem Austausch fehlerhafter Teile.It is advantageous that the U-profile-shaped connecting elements can be standardized and therefore particularly cost-effective profiles. It is also advantageous to enable the standardization of charge carrier systems, in particular their dimensions. Furthermore, the extended useful life of the charge carrier system over several model cycles, eg, vehicle model cycles, and the potential flexibility within a model cycle. In addition, the possible shortening of the development and procurement time for a suitable charge carrier system, for example, during a model change is advantageous. In addition, for example, the maintenance costs and times are advantageous in case of repair, due to easy and quick replacement of faulty parts.

Die Aufbaustruktur umfasst ferner zumindest ein Verkleidungselement (z.B. ein Seitenpaneel) und zumindest ein ladungsgutspezifisches Innenelement. Das Innenelement ist vorzugsweise so konfiguriert, dass es Ladungsgut definiert aufnehmen (z.B. positionieren) und/oder halten kann, z.B. um Qualitätsgesichtspunkten gerecht werden zu können.The body structure further comprises at least one trim element (e.g., a side panel) and at least one cargo-type interior element. The inner member is preferably configured to receive cargo (e.g., position) and / or hold cargo in a defined manner, e.g. in order to meet quality aspects.

Die Aufbaustruktur wird somit durch zumindest die Stehelemente, die Strebenelemente, das zumindest eine Verkleidungselement, und das zumindest eine Innenelement gebildet.The body structure is thus formed by at least the standing elements, the strut elements, the at least one cladding element, and the at least one inner element.

Jeweils zwei Verbindungselemente sind mit jeweils einem Stehelement (z.B. durch Schraubverbindungen) lösbar verbunden und vorzugsweise rechtwinklig zueinander ausgerichtet.In each case two connecting elements are detachably connected to a respective standing element (for example by screw connections) and are preferably aligned at right angles to one another.

Die Stehelemente sind vorzugsweise Eckstehelemente.The standing elements are preferably Eckstehelemente.

Es ist möglich, dass die Stehelemente mit dem Bodenteil (z.B. durch Schraubverbindungen) lösbar verbunden sind, z.B. in Eckbereichen des Bodenteils.It is possible that the standing elements are detachably connected to the bottom part (for example by screw connections), e.g. in corner areas of the bottom part.

Die Verbindungselemente umfassen jeweils ein Schenkelpaar und vorzugsweise einen zwischen dem Schenkelpaar ausgebildeten Steg.The connecting elements each comprise a pair of legs and preferably a web formed between the pair of legs.

Die Schenkelpaare weisen jeweils einen Innenschenkel und einen Außenschenkel auf.The leg pairs each have an inner leg and an outer leg.

Außerdem ist es möglich, dass jeweils zwei Verbiridungselemente über ihren jeweiligen Steg mit jeweils einem Stehelement (z.B. durch Schraubverbindungen) lösbar verbunden sind.In addition, it is possible that in each case two connecting elements are detachably connected via their respective web to a respective standing element (for example by screw connections).

Vorzugsweise erstrecken sich die Strebenelemente jeweils zwischen zwei Stehelementen, deren Schenkelpaare einander zweckmäßig zugewandt sind.Preferably, the strut elements each extend between two standing elements whose leg pairs are expediently facing each other.

Insbesondere können die Strebenelemente jeweils in zwei zweckmäßig einander zugewandte Schenkelpaare insbesondere sandwichartig und vorzugsweise lösbar eingesetzt sein.In particular, the strut elements can each be inserted into two suitably facing leg pairs, in particular sandwiched and preferably detachably.

Das zumindest eine Verkleidungselement ist mit Außenschenkeln der Verbindungselemente (z.B. durch Schraubverbindungen) lösbar verbunden.The at least one trim element is releasably connected to outer legs of the connecting elements (e.g., by screw connections).

Das zumindest eine transportgutspezifische Innenelement oder ladungsgutspezifische Innenelement ist mit Innenschenkeln der Verbindungselemente (z.B. durch Schraubverbindungen) lösbar verbunden.The at least one transport-specific inner element or cargo-specific inner element is detachably connected to inner legs of the connecting elements (for example by screw connections).

Die Verbindungselemente weisen jeweils ein vordefiniertes Lochbild auf, über das die die Aufbaustruktur ausbildenden Elemente (z.B. durch Schraubverbindungen) verbunden werden können. Das Lochbild ist an den Schenkelpaaren und vorzugsweise an den jeweiligen Stegen ausgebildet.The connecting elements each have a predefined hole pattern, by means of which the structural structure forming elements can be connected (for example by screw connections). The hole pattern is formed on the leg pairs and preferably on the respective webs.

Das Ladungsträgersystem umfasst vorzugsweise zumindest vier Stehelemente und/oder zumindest sechs Verbindungselemente.The charge carrier system preferably comprises at least four standing elements and / or at least six connecting elements.

Außerdem kann das Ladungsträgersystem zumindest zwei, drei oder vier Strebenelemente umfassen.In addition, the charge carrier system may comprise at least two, three or four strut elements.

Vorzugsweise sind die die Aufbaustruktur bildenden Elemente jeweils durch Schraubbefestigungen mit den Verbindungselementen lösbar verbunden.The elements forming the body structure are preferably detachably connected to the connecting elements by screw fasteners.

Somit sind die die Aufbaustruktur bildenden Elemente und die Verbindungselemente zweckmäßig aneinander befestigt.Thus, the structural structure forming elements and the connecting elements are suitably fastened together.

Anstelle der Schraubverbindungen-/befestigungen können auch andere lösbare Befestigungs-/Verbindungsmechanismen verwendet werden, z.B. Rast- und/oder Schnappverbindungen, Formschlussverbindungen, etc..Instead of the threaded fasteners, other releasable attachment / connection mechanisms may be used, e.g. Latching and / or snap connections, form-locking connections, etc ..

Vorzugsweise erstrecken sich die Verbindungselemente und die Stehelemente parallel zueinander.Preferably, the connecting elements and the standing elements extend parallel to each other.

Die Strebenelemente können sich z.B. rechtwinklig oder schräg zu den Stehelementen und/oder den Verbindungselementen erstrecken.The strut elements may be e.g. extend at right angles or obliquely to the standing elements and / or the connecting elements.

Die Stehelemente und/oder die Verbindungselemente erstrecken sich zweckmäßig rechtwinklig zu dem Bodenteil.The standing elements and / or the connecting elements extend expediently at right angles to the bottom part.

Die Strebenelemente und das Bodenteil erstrecken sich vorzugsweise parallel oder schräg zueinander.The strut elements and the bottom part preferably extend parallel or obliquely to each other.

Die Strebenelemente können z.B. durch jeweils einen Schenkel eines Schenkelpaars oder durch jeweils beide Schenkel eines Schenkelpaars verschraubt werden. Selbiges gilt auch für das zumindest eine Innenelement.The strut elements may e.g. be bolted by one leg of a pair of legs or by both legs of a pair of legs. The same applies to the at least one interior element.

Es ist möglich, dass die Stehelemente (z.B. mittels eines Klapp- oder Schwenkmechanismus) klappbar mit dem Bodenteil verbunden sind, um zweckmäßig z.B. zusammen mit einem oder mehreren Strebenelementen, zumindest einem Innenelement und/oder zumindest einem Verkleidungselement auf das Bodenteil geklappt werden zu können, wodurch z.B. Raum beim Transport eines leeren Ladungsträgersystems gespart werden kann.It is possible that the standing elements (eg by means of a folding or pivoting mechanism) are hingedly connected to the bottom part in order, for example, to be able to be folded onto the bottom part together with one or more strut elements, at least one inner element and / or at least one cladding element, whereby, for example, space can be saved when transporting an empty load carrier system.

Zu erwähnen ist noch, dass das Bodenteil und/oder die die Aufbaustruktur bildenden Elemente in unterschiedlicher Größe und/oder unterschiedlicher Funktion vorgehalten werden können, um bei Bedarf ein passendes Ladungsträgersystem zusammensetzen zu können. Somit ist ein baukastenartig bzw. modular zusammensetzbares Ladungsträgersystem realisierbar.It should also be mentioned that the bottom part and / or the elements forming the body structure can be kept in different sizes and / or different functions in order to be able to assemble a suitable load carrier system if required. Thus, a modular or modular composite charge carrier system can be realized.

The structural structure forming elements, namely the Eckstehelemente 2, the strut elements 3, the cladding elements 4 and the inner elements 5 are each suitably releasably connected to two U-shaped connecting elements 6, whereby the charge carrier LS is modularly assembled and the realization of charge carrier systems is made possible which are adaptable to different loads inside and in relation to their external dimensions.

Die Eckstehelemente 2 sind in den Eckbereichen des Bodenteils 1 an dem Bodenteil 1 lösbar befestigt und zwar vorzugsweise ein- und ausklappbar. Dadurch können die Eckstehelemente 2 zusammen mit den Verkleidungselementen 4 und den Innenelementen 5 auf das Bodenteil 1 geklappt werden, so dass Raum beim Transport eines leeren Ladungsträgersystems LS gespart werden kann.The Eckstehelemente 2 are releasably secured in the corner regions of the bottom part 1 on the bottom part 1 and although preferably on and folded out. Thereby, the Eckstehelemente 2 can be folded together with the cladding elements 4 and the inner elements 5 on the bottom part 1, so that space can be saved in the transport of an empty load carrier system LS.

Jeweils zwei Verbindungselemente 6 sind an jeweils einem Eckstehelement 2 lösbar befestigt, wobei die jeweils zwei Verbindungselemente 6 rechtwinklig zueinander ausgerichtet sind.In each case two connecting elements 6 are detachably attached to one Eckstehelement 2, wherein the two connecting elements 6 are aligned at right angles to each other.

Die Verbindungselemente 6 umfassen jeweils einen Steg S und ein einen Innenschenkel F1 und einen Außenschenkel F2 aufweisendes Schenkelpaar. Jeweils zwei Verbindungselemente 6 sind über ihren jeweiligen Steg S an jeweils einem Eckstehelement 2 lösbar befestigt.The connecting elements 6 each comprise a web S and a leg pair having an inner leg F1 and an outer leg F2. In each case two connecting elements 6 are detachably fastened via their respective web S to a respective Eckstehelement 2.

Die Strebenelemente 3 sind jeweils zwischen zwei Eckstehelementen 2 angeordnet und jeweils in zwei einander zugewandte Schenkelpaare sandwichartig, lösbar eingesetzt, wie insbesondere in Figur 3 zu sehen. Die Verkleidungselemente 4 sind jeweils an den Außenschenkeln F2 zweier Verbindungselemente 6 lösbar befestigt. Die Innenelemente 5 sind jeweils an den Innenschenkeln F1 zweier Verbindungselemente 6 lösbar befestigt.The strut elements 3 are each arranged between two Eckstehelementen 2 and in each case in two mutually facing pairs of legs sandwich, solvable used, in particular in FIG. 3 to see. The cladding elements 4 are each releasably attached to the outer legs F2 of two connecting elements 6. The inner elements 5 are each releasably secured to the inner legs F1 of two connecting elements 6.

Die Verbindungselemente 6 umfassen jeweils ein vordefiniertes Lochbild, über das die die Aufbaustruktur ausbildenden Elemente zweckmäßig lösbar befestigt sind, wie insbesondere in Figur 2 zu sehen. Grundsätzlich können alle unter Bezugnahme auf die Figuren 1 bis 3 beschriebenen lösbaren Befestigungen durch Schraubverbindungen realisiert werden, wobei jedoch auch andere lösbare Befestigungstechniken möglich sind.The connecting elements 6 each comprise a predefined hole pattern, via which the elements forming the structure are expediently detachably fastened, in particular in FIG FIG. 2 to see. Basically, all with reference to the FIGS. 1 to 3 described releasable fasteners can be realized by screw, but other releasable fastening techniques are possible.

Die Strebenelemente 3, die Verkleidungselemente 4 und die Innenelemente 5 sind jeweils an zwei gegenüberliegenden und einander zugewandten Verbindungselementen 6 lösbar befestigt.The strut elements 3, the cladding elements 4 and the inner elements 5 are each releasably secured to two opposing and mutually facing connecting elements 6.

Die Eckstehelemente 2 und die Verbindungselemente 6 erstrecken sich parallel zueinander. Die Strebenelemente 3 erstrecken sich rechtwinklig zu den Eckstehelementen 2 und den Verbindungselementen 6. Die Eckstehelemente 2 und die Verbindungselemente 6 erstrecken sich rechtwinklig zu dem Bodenteil 1. Die Strebenelemente 3 und das Bodenteil 1 erstrecken sich parallel zueinander.The Eckstehelemente 2 and the connecting elements 6 extend parallel to each other. The strut elements 3 extend at right angles to the Eckstehelementen 2 and the connecting elements 6. The Eckstehelemente 2 and the connecting elements 6 extend at right angles to the bottom part 1. The strut elements 3 and the bottom part 1 extend parallel to each other.

Die die Aufbaustruktur bildenden Elemente und die Verbindungselemente 6 sind vorzugsweise verzinkte, standardisierte Stahlprofile, insbesondere Hohl- oder Winkelprofile.The structural elements forming the elements and the connecting elements 6 are preferably galvanized, standardized steel profiles, in particular hollow or angle profiles.

Figur 3 zeigt eine stark schematische Draufsicht auf das Ladungsträgersystem LS nach den Figuren 1 und 2, wobei die Verkleidungselemente 4 und die Innenelemente 5 weggelassen sind, um eine verständlichere Darstellung zu schaffen. Die Pfeile symbolisieren jeweils lösbare Verbindungsmechanismen, insbesondere in Form von Schraubverbindungen. Zu sehen sind insbesondere das Bodenteil 1, die vier Eckstehelemente 2, die vier Strebenelemente 3 und die acht Verbindungselemente 6. Die die Strebenelemente 3 befestigenden Schraubverbindungen erstrecken sich nur durch die Außenschenkel der Schenkelpaare. Es ist jedoch ebenso möglich, dass sich die die Strebenelemente 3 befestigenden Schraubverbindungen durch die Außen- und Innenschenkel der Schenkelpaare erstrecken. Zu erwähnen ist noch, dass das Bodenteil 1 vorzugsweise rechteckförmig ausgeführt ist und das Ladungsträgersystem LS vorteilhaft auch mit z.B. nur sechs oder weniger Verbindungselementen 6 ausführbar ist. FIG. 3 shows a highly schematic plan view of the charge carrier system LS after the FIGS. 1 and 2 , wherein the cladding elements 4 and the inner elements 5 are omitted, to provide a more understandable representation. The arrows each symbolize detachable connection mechanisms, in particular in the form of screw connections. To see are in particular the bottom part 1, the four Eckstehelemente 2, the four strut elements 3 and the eight connecting elements 6. The struts 3 fastenings screw extend only through the outer legs of the leg pairs. However, it is also possible that the screw elements securing the strut elements 3 extend through the outer and inner legs of the leg pairs. It should also be mentioned that the bottom part 1 is preferably rectangular and the charge carrier system LS can advantageously also be implemented with eg only six or fewer connecting elements 6.

Die Erfindung ist nicht auf die vorstehend beschriebenen bevorzugten Ausführungsformen beschränkt. Vielmehr ist eine Vielzahl von Varianten und Abwandlungen möglich, die ebenfalls von dem Erfindungsgedanken Gebrauch machen und deshalb in den Schutzbereich fallen.The invention is not limited to the preferred embodiments described above. Rather, a variety of variants and modifications are possible, which also make use of the concept of the invention and therefore fall within the scope.
