Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a pallet for transporting in safety stacks of sheet-metal blanks.
  • Pallets of this type are used, for example in the automotive industry, for conveying stacks of sheet-metal blanks from the workstation at output from the shearing machine to a workstation at input to a press that is to pick up in succession the sheet-metal blanks and to subject them to a pressing operation, for producing components of motor-vehicle structures.
  • pallets of the type referred to above which comprise:
  • the function of the aforesaid posts is to prevent any instability of the stack of sheet-metal blanks during transport, in particular in the eventuality of any accidental impact of the transport vehicle against any obstacles present in the workshop.
  • containment in a vertical direction of the stack is normally obtained with the aid of conventional straps with which the stack is strapped.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a pallet of the type referred to above that will guarantee perfect stability of the stack during transport, that will be reconfigurable with operations that are extremely simple and fast so as to be adapted to the dimensions and shape in top plan view of the stack of sheet-metal blanks, and that will moreover enable the stack to be secured also in the vertical direction with operations that are equally simple and fast.
  • the subject of the invention is a pallet, which presents the characteristics that have already been referred to at the start of the present description and is moreover characterized in that :
  • the pallet according to the invention presents a series of important advantages.
  • the provision of receiving holes for the posts for containing the stack, both on the aforesaid cross members that connect together the front and rear beams of the base structure and on the aforesaid auxiliary longitudinal beams enables installation of a plurality of posts designed to contain the stack of sheet-metal blanks both with respect to any movement orthogonal to said front and rear beams (i.e., in the direction of movement of the vehicle for transporting the pallet) and in the direction orthogonal to said side beams (i.e., in a direction transverse to the direction of advance of the transport vehicle).
  • first holes and of second holes on surfaces set at different levels enables on the one hand use of a structure that is simple and inexpensive to produce and on the other hand gives rise to the use of containing posts which, since they must have their top ends set substantially at the same height when they are in operation, have lengths different from one another.
  • this does not entail any particular complication or waste of time for the operator since the two different types of posts are readily distinguishable from one another on account of the different shape of the cross section (at least at their bottom ends), and their location of installation is likewise immediately identifiable thanks to the different shape of the receiving holes provided on the aforesaid cross members and on the aforesaid auxiliary longitudinal beams.
  • the stack of sheet-metal blanks once received on the cross members of the pallet, and withheld on its periphery by positioning of the first and second posts, can be blocked also vertically with extremely simple and fast operations given that there may be associated to two or more of the aforesaid first posts or the aforesaid second posts height-adjustable brackets designed to press on the top surface of the stack.
  • This arrangement is, in particular, used when a stack of sheet-metal blanks is not to be moved just for a short stretch within an industrial works, but, for example is to be sent from one industrial plant to another.
  • the aforesaid auxiliary longitudinal beams (S) each have a number of orderly rows of holes (s), the holes of each row being set at a distance from one another according to a constant pitch, for example in the region of 10 mm, and being staggered longitudinally by half a pitch with respect to the holes of an adjacent row.
  • number 1 designates as a whole a pallet, comprising a base structure designated as a whole by the reference number 2.
  • the main components of the base structure 2 are a longitudinal front beam 3 (which, in the example of embodiment illustrated herein, is defined by three portions of beam 3a, 3b, 3c), a longitudinal rear beam 4 (which, in the example illustrated, is also defined by three portions of beam 4a, 4b, 4c), and two side beams 5 (just one of which is visible in Figure 1 ), each defined, in the case of the example illustrated, by portions of beam 5a, 5b, 5c.
  • the base structure further includes two hollow intermediate beams F, which connect the front and rear beams 3 an 4 together in positions symmetrically set at the two sides of the median vertical plane of the pallet.
  • the base structure 2 finally comprises two further intermediate longitudinal beams L, which extend between the two side beams 5, as well as a central plate A, which extends longitudinally between the two cross members F and bears a pair of holes with tapered wall, converging upwards, that are to engage on corresponding locating pins provided in the workstation at input to a press, for locating the pallet in a precise position in said workstation and enabling automatic pick-up by the press of the sheet-metal blanks stacked on the pallet.
  • the base structure 2 fixed on the base structure 2 is a plurality of cross members T that connect the front and rear beams 3 and 4 together.
  • the cross members T have respective top plane walls defining a common horizontal resting surface for the stack of sheet-metal blanks.
  • the cross members T are fixed on the front and rear beams 3 and 4 (as well as on the intermediate beams L and F) so that the resting surface of the stack of sheet-metal blanks is raised with respect to the plane of the top surfaces of the elements 3, 4, 5, L and F defining the top surface of the base structure 2.
  • Each of the cross members T bears on its top wall an orderly array of holes t for receiving the bottom ends of posts P1 for containing the stack of sheet-metal blanks.
  • each cross member T contains a single row of holes t, and the aforesaid holes are square in shape. Consequently, the posts P1 that may be received in the holes t have a square cross section, at least in their bottom end portion.
  • the two intermediate cross members F are hollow cross members, defining cavities C for receiving the forks of the vehicle that is to transport the pallet.
  • the base structure 2 further comprises two sets (in the specific case two pairs) of intermediate auxiliary beams S, each of which extends between one of the side beams 5 and one of the beams of the intermediate cross members F.
  • the auxiliary longitudinal beams S have plane top walls of the elements 3, 4, 5, F, L that define the base structure 2. Moreover, the top walls of the auxiliary longitudinal beams S have an orderly array of holes s (in the example illustrated, three parallel rows of holes longitudinally staggered with respect to one another) for receiving the bottom ends of containment posts P2.
  • the containment posts P1 are to engage the two longitudinal edges of the stack of sheet-metal blanks, for preventing any movement of the stack in the vertical direction of Figure 3 , i.e., in the direction of advance of the vehicle that transports the pallet, whilst the posts P2 are to engage the two opposite sides of the stack, for preventing any movement of the latter in a direction transverse to the direction of advance of the transport vehicle.
  • the aforesaid auxiliary longitudinal beams (S) each have a number of orderly rows of holes.
  • the holes of each row are set at a distance from one another according to a constant pitch, for example in the region of 10 mm, and are staggered longitudinally by half a pitch with respect to the holes of an adjacent row. In this way, it is ensured that for any conformation of the sheet-metal blanks of the stack it is always possible to have available holes for insertion of posts in a position sufficiently close to the edges of the sheet-metal blanks.
  • the posts P1, P2 once installed, have their top ends substantially at the same level so as to enable stacking in said condition of a number of pallets, as illustrated in Figure 6 .
  • the posts P1, P2 are hence of different length.
  • the shape of the holes s has been chosen different from the shape of the holes t (in the example illustrated, the holes t are square and the holes s are round, as mentioned above). Consequently, whereas the posts P1 have a square cross section, at least at their bottom ends, the posts P2 have a round cross section, at least at their bottom ends.
  • three posts P1 are positioned on each of the front and rear sides of the stack of sheet-metal blanks, and two posts P2 on each of the two sides of the stack.
  • the posts P1 and P2 are positioned selecting the holes t and s most suitable for enabling positioning of each post in contact with and immediately adjacent to the respective side of the stack.
  • the distancing between two adjacent holes t and s of one and the same row is chosen sufficiently small (for example, in the region of 10 mm) for guaranteeing an adequate positioning of the posts whatever the conformation of the sheet-metal blanks.
  • the stack can be withheld moreover also axially by means of two or more brackets B that are carried by height-adjustable supports mounted on some of the posts P1 and/or P2 (the example illustrated shows two pairs of brackets B carried on as many pairs of posts P1; see, in particular, Figures 3 , 4 , and 5 ).
  • Said arrangement is, in particular, used when a stack of sheet-metal blanks is not to be moved just for a short stretch within an industrial works, but for example has instead to be sent from one industrial plant to another.
  • the top walls of the intermediate cross members F and of the intermediate longitudinal beams L are provided in any case with guide channels z in which conventional straps for strapping of the stack of sheet-metal blanks can be made to slide.
  • supporting columns H of greater length and supporting columns h of smaller length (see Figure 1 ), each having a bottom end that is to be received in a seat provided on the base structure 2 of the pallet and a top end with a locating pin 10 that is to be received in a corresponding seat made underneath the base structure 2 of another pallet so as to enable stacking of a number of pallets with the stacks of sheet-metal blanks arranged thereon ( Figure 6 ) with the aid of the columns H and stacking of a number of pallets in the unloaded condition ( Figure 7 ) with the aid of the columns h.
  • the pallet according to the invention presents the advantage of being rapidly reconfigurable according to the shape and dimensions of the stack of sheet-metal blanks. It can be installed with operations that are extremely simple and fast thanks to the possibility of associating different containment posts immediately to different receiving holes. Moreover, transport of the stack of sheet-metal blanks is altogether safe thanks to the provision of the clamping brackets B, which are also extremely easy and fast to use.
  • the elements constituting the base structure 2 are one or more housings that can be used as magazine for the posts P1, P2.
