Description

La présente invention concerne un ensemble formant conteneur avec palette, comprenant une palette en carton ondulé ou autre matériau semi rigide et une ceinture également en carton, la ceinture et la palette étant fixées l'une à l'autre ; l'invention vise plus particulièrement le moyen de liaison de la ceinture à la palette.The present invention relates to a pallet container assembly comprising a corrugated cardboard pallet or other semi-rigid material and also a cardboard belt, the belt and the pallet being fixed to each other; the invention is more particularly the means for connecting the belt to the pallet.

Pour le transport d'objets lourds ou encombrants, on utilise des palettes constituées d'un plateau pourvu de supports en forme de plots, de patins ou de traverses. Ceux-ci sont disposés sous le plateau de manière à permettre le passage des fourches d'un engin de manutention. Les palettes sont généralement en bois mais on trouve aussi des palettes dont le plateau est en carton ondulé épais et les supports aussi en carton. Dans ce cas, des éléments de renfort sont généralement associés aux supports pour en améliorer la résistance à la charge verticale. Un exemple de réalisation de support comprend un fourreau formant une traverse s'étendant d'un bord à l'autre du plateau avec des blocs répartis à l'intérieur du fourreau et suffisamment résistants pour supporter les charges placées sur le plateau de la palette.For the transport of heavy or bulky objects, pallets are used consisting of a plate provided with supports in the form of pads, pads or sleepers. These are arranged under the plate so as to allow the passage of the forks of a handling machine. The pallets are usually made of wood but there are also pallets with a thick corrugated cardboard top and supports also made of cardboard. In this case, reinforcing elements are generally associated with the supports to improve the resistance to the vertical load. An exemplary support embodiment comprises a sheath forming a cross member extending from one edge to the other of the tray with blocks distributed inside the sleeve and strong enough to support the loads placed on the pallet plate.

On peut combiner ce dernier type de palette avec une caisse ou une ceinture également en carton pour contenir des charges. Il s'agit alors d'assurer le maintien de la caisse pendant les opérations de manutention. Des solutions existent déjà sur le moyen de rendre la caisse solidaire du plateau de manière à ce que, pendant le transport notamment mais plus généralement pendant toute la durée d'utilisation, l'emballage et la palette forment un ensemble indissociable. La réalisation de ce type de caisse palette peut être cependant complexe dans la mesure où le carton est un matériau moins résistant que le bois. En raison de pliages élaborés, le montage peut ne pas être simple.The latter type of pallet can be combined with a box or a belt also made of cardboard for containing loads. This is to ensure the maintenance of the cash during handling operations. Solutions already exist on the means of making the box integral with the tray so that, during transport including but more generally for the duration of use, the package and pallet form an inseparable unit. The realization of this type of pallet box may however be complex insofar as the cardboard is a less durable material than wood. Due to elaborate bends, mounting may not be simple.

Le présent déposant a déjà proposé par exemple un assemblage décrit dans le brevet FR 2 789 975 : une caisse est placée sur une palette et est fixée à la palette. La caisse comprend une ceinture et des rabats d'extrémité inférieurs, prolongeant chacun une paroi de la ceinture vers le bas. Le plateau de la palette présente deux interstices plats de réception et de retenue de rabats d'extrémité de la caisse. Les deux interstices plats s'étendent sensiblement parallèlement au plan du plateau et débouchent par des fentes respectives dans des côtés opposés avant et arrière du plateau.The present applicant has already proposed for example an assembly described in the patent FR 2 789 975 : A crate is placed on a pallet and is attached to the pallet. The box includes a belt and lower end flaps, each extending one wall of the belt downward. The pallet plate has two flat slots for receiving and retaining the end flaps of the crate. The two flat interstices extend substantially parallel to the plane of the plate and open through respective slots in opposite sides front and rear of the plate.

Un autre exemple est décrit dans le brevet FR 2 883 847 où le plateau de la palette comprend au moins une languette qui lui est solidaire et est découpée dans la plaque de carton du plateau pour le verrouillage d'un emballage reposant sur la palette. De préférence, le plateau comprend deux languettes le long de deux côtés opposés coopérant avec des encoches ménagées le long des arêtes entre la ceinture et le fond de l'emballage.Another example is described in the patent FR 2,883,847 where the tray of the pallet comprises at least one tab which is integral therewith and is cut in the tray cardboard plate for locking a package resting on the pallet. Preferably, the plate comprises two tabs along two opposite sides cooperating with notches provided along the edges between the belt and the bottom of the package.

La demanderesse s'est fixé comme objectif la réalisation d'un conteneur avec palette, essentiellement en carton ou autre matériau semi-rigide, comportant un moyen de retenue ou de verrouillage de la ceinture du conteneur à la palette et permettant le montage de l'ensemble de façon aussi simple et aisé que possible. En outre, il serait souhaitable que le moyen de fixation ne demande la mise en place d'aucune pièce rapportée de manière à ce que l'ensemble soit aussi économique que possible.The applicant has set itself the goal of producing a container with a pallet, essentially made of cardboard or other semi-rigid material, comprising means for retaining or locking the belt of the container to the pallet and allowing the assembly of the together as simply and easily as possible. In addition, it would be desirable that the fastening means requires the installation of any insert so that the assembly is as economical as possible.

Un conteneur avec palette conforme à l'invention, en carton ou autre matériau semi rigide, comprenant une palette formée d'un plateau et de supports fixés sous le plateau, un des supports présentant un panneau latéral le long d'un bord de la palette, une ceinture avec des panneaux entourant le plateau et s'étendant verticalement par rapport à lui, un premier panneau de la ceinture étant adjacent audit panneau latéral du support, est caractérisé par le fait que le premier panneau de ceinture comprend un volet avec un tenon, pivotant autour d'un axe inférieur parallèle au plateau, le panneau latéral de support comportant un volet de support avec mortaise, pivotant autour d'un axe supérieur parallèle au plateau, le tenon étant inséré dans la mortaise et le tenon et la mortaise formant ainsi un moyen de retenue de la ceinture à la palette.A container with pallet according to the invention, made of cardboard or other semi-rigid material, comprising a pallet formed of a plate and supports fixed under the plate, one of the supports having a side panel along an edge of the pallet , a belt with panels surrounding the tray and extending vertically with respect to it, a first panel of the belt being adjacent to said side panel of the support, is characterized in that the first belt panel comprises a flap with a tenon pivoting about a lower axis parallel to the tray, the support side panel having a mortise support flap pivoted about an upper axis parallel to the tray, the tenon being inserted into the mortise and the mortise and tenon forming thus a means of retaining the belt to the pallet.

Lors des opérations de manutention, le conteneur subit des chocs ou est soumis à des efforts qui risquent de séparer la ceinture de la palette. Par ce moyen de retenue de mise en oeuvre très simple, on assure le maintien de la ceinture en place.During handling operations, the container is shocked or is subjected to efforts that may separate the belt from the pallet. By this means of retaining very simple implementation, it ensures the maintenance of the belt in place.

De préférence, afin de renforcer la liaison, le conteneur comprend un deuxième moyen de retenue entre un deuxième panneau de la ceinture et un volet de support adjacent audit deuxième panneau.Preferably, in order to strengthen the connection, the container comprises a second retaining means between a second panel of the belt and a support flap adjacent to said second panel.

Conformément à une caractéristique, le volet avec tenon est découpé dans ledit premier panneau à la manière d'une fenêtre.According to one feature, the stud flap is cut into said first panel in the manner of a window.

Conformément à une autre caractéristique le volet avec mortaise est découpé dans le panneau latéral de support à la manière d'une fenêtre.According to another characteristic the shutter with mortise is cut in the side support panel in the manner of a window.

On décrit maintenant un exemple de réalisation non limitatif de l'invention en référence aux dessins sur lesquels :

  • La figure 1 représente une palette,
  • La figure 2 représente une ceinture de forme adaptée à venir se placer sur la palette,
  • La figure 3 montre le conteneur formé de la ceinture sur la palette,
  • La figure 4 montre le volet avec tenon découpé dans le panneau de la ceinture,
  • La figure 5 montre le volet avec mortaise découpé dans le flanc du support,
  • La figure 6 montre en coupe selon AA de la figure 3, le moyen de retenue formé par le tenon du volet avec tenon du panneau de la ceinture, engagé dans la mortaise du volet avec mortaise du support.
An example of a non-limiting embodiment of the invention will now be described with reference to the drawings in which:
  • The figure 1 represents a palette,
  • The figure 2 represents a belt of shape adapted to be placed on the pallet,
  • The figure 3 shows the container formed of the belt on the pallet,
  • The figure 4 shows the shutter with tenon cut in the panel of the belt,
  • The figure 5 shows the shutter with mortise cut in the side of the support,
  • The figure 6 cutaway watch according to AA of the figure 3 , the retaining means formed by the tenon of the shutter with tenon of the panel of the belt, engaged in the mortise of the shutter with mortise support.

La figure 1 montre une palette 1 en carton, notamment ondulé, ou autre matériau semi rigide. La palette comprend ainsi un plateau 2 sur la face inférieure duquel sont fixées des traverses 5 formant supports de palette. Les traverses, ici au nombre de trois permettent le passage des fourches d'un engin de manutention et de levage. Eventuellement, les traverses présentent des ouvertures pour donner un accès aux fourches de l'engin perpendiculairement aux traverses 5. Elles n'en ont pas ici. Les traverses comprennent un fourreau en carton de forme parallélépipédique. A l'intérieur du fourreau sont disposés des renforts 55 agencés pour résister aux charges placées sur la palette. Les deux traverses latérales sont au bord du plateau 2. Le flanc latéral extérieur 51 de ces deux traverses est disposé le long du bord du plateau, sans retrait vers l'intérieur du fourreau ou avec un retrait limité.The figure 1 shows a palette 1 cardboard, including corrugated, or other semi-rigid material. The pallet thus comprises a plate 2 on the lower face of which are fixed crosspieces 5 forming pallet supports. The sleepers, here in number of three allow the passage of the forks of a handling and lifting equipment. Optionally, the sleepers have openings to give access to the forks of the machine perpendicular to the sleepers 5. They do not have here. The sleepers include a parallelepiped shaped cardboard sleeve. Inside the sheath are arranged reinforcements 55 arranged to withstand the loads placed on the pallet. The two lateral crosspieces are at the edge of the plate 2. The lateral lateral flank 51 of these two crosspieces is arranged along the edge of the plate, without withdrawal towards the inside of the sleeve or with a limited withdrawal.

La figure 2 montre une ceinture 3 parallélépipédique, formée de panneaux en carton ondulé ou autre matériau semi rigide. La palette est placée à l'intérieur de la ceinture, ménageant ainsi un volume de chargement. Les panneaux de la ceinture sont ouverts le long de leur bord inférieur pour permettre l'accès à l'espace ménagé entre les traverses 5 par des fourches de levage.The figure 2 shows a parallelepipedal belt 3 formed of corrugated cardboard panels or other semi-rigid material. The pallet is placed inside the belt, thus providing a load volume. The belt panels are open along their lower edge to allow access to the space between the sleepers 5 by lifting forks.

Dans le premier panneau 31 de la ceinture 3, le long de son bord inférieur on a découpé un volet 33, articulé autour d'une ligne de pliage 32, horizontale. La ligne de pliage forme le bord inférieur du volet. Le volet est en forme de U inversé avec un tenon 34 sur le bord parallèle à la ligne de pliage 32, figure 4.In the first panel 31 of the belt 3, along its lower edge is cut a flap 33, articulated around a fold line 32, horizontal. The fold line forms the bottom edge of the shutter. The flap is inverted U-shaped with a stud 34 on the edge parallel to the fold line 32, figure 4 .

En vis-à-vis du volet 33, sur le flanc latéral formé par le panneau latéral 51 du fourreau du support 5, on a découpé un volet 53, en forme de U. Ce volet est articulé autour d'une ligne de pliage 52 horizontale. La ligne de pliage 52 forme le bord supérieur du volet 53. Le volet 53 comprend une fente 54 formant mortaise, figure 5.Vis-à-vis the flap 33, on the lateral side formed by the side panel 51 of the sheath of the support 5, was cut a flap 53, U-shaped. This flap is articulated around a fold line 52 horizontal. The fold line 52 forms the upper edge of the flap 53. The flap 53 comprises a slot 54 forming a mortise, figure 5 .

La figure 6 montre en coupe le moyen de retenue de la ceinture à la palette. On voit que le volet 33 a été incliné vers l'intérieur du fourreau du support 5 autour de la ligne de pliage 32. Le tenon 34 du volet a été introduit dans la mortaise 54 du volet 53 adjacent, qui a été incliné vers l'intérieur du fourreau.The figure 6 shows in section the retaining means of the belt to the pallet. It can be seen that the shutter 33 has been inclined towards the inside of the support sheath 5 around the fold line 32. The lug 34 of the shutter has been introduced into the mortise 54 of the adjacent shutter 53, which has been inclined towards the inside the sheath.

Par ce montage, tout déplacement vers le haut du panneau 31 de la ceinture est empêché par le volet 33 qui vient en butée contre le volet 53.By this assembly, any upward movement of the panel 31 of the belt is prevented by the flap 33 which abuts against the flap 53.

Un moyen de retenue supplémentaire est avantageusement prévu sur le deuxième panneau de la ceinture, opposé au premier.Additional retaining means is advantageously provided on the second panel of the belt, opposite to the first.
