Definitions
- the invention relates to a transport pallet made of plastic for the handling of goods, with an upper deck having a loading surface for goods and goods on an upper side. Below the upper deck engaging openings for lifting devices, such as forks of forklifts, formed, which are limited by support feet and / or a pallet base.
- Plastic transport pallets can increasingly assert themselves against transport pallets of wood or metal because of their positive properties - in particular high stability, long service life, good cleanability, low cost, resistance to corrosion as well as many acids and alkalis, good recyclability and their low dead weight.
- Plastic pallets have a low coefficient of friction because of the high degree of hardness of their material, which involves the risk that goods loaded on the pallet of the plastic pallet may slip during transport and even fall off the pallet.
- Another danger is the slipping of the pallet on a smooth and / or inclined ground, especially moist, dirty or greasy ground.
- the slip-resistant layers are each applied to the pallet via a complex, multi-step injection molding process. Furthermore, in the case of their wear, which occurs in particular by abrasion, these layers can be restored only with considerable effort.
- a transport pallet according to the preamble of claim 1 is made US 6 199 488 B1 known.
- Object of the present invention is to provide a transport pallet made of plastic with slip-resistant surfaces, which does not have the above disadvantages and is possible to produce cost.
- the plastic transport pallet comprises an upper deck with a top and a bottom. On the top of a loading area for goods and goods is formed. Below the bottom engaging openings for lifting devices, such as tines of forklifts, provided, wherein the engagement openings are laterally limited by support legs. Down the engagement openings may be open or limited by a pallet base, in particular a lower deck, a frame or runners.
- a pallet base in particular a lower deck, a frame or runners.
- the plugs are formed of an elastically compressible material having a higher coefficient of friction than the pallet material, so that they are slip-resistant compared to the plastic.
- the plugs have an upper end surface at one longitudinal end and a lower end surface at the other longitudinal end, and when arranged in the pallet extend from the top of the upper deck to the lower surface of the upper deck. In this case, the upper end face and / or the lower end face of the plug protrude from the upper deck at least partially. Since the plugs gleithemmend, in particular with a higher coefficient of friction than the plastic pallet are formed, they effect a simultaneous improvement of the slip resistance of the loading surface for goods and the attack surface for the lifting device.
- the elastic material of the plug has the further advantage that it is particularly well elastically deformable and the plug thus the geometry of the recording is better adaptable than a comparable stopper made of a less elastic material. This allows greater manufacturing tolerances and easier assembly of the plug. In addition, thus being damaged the goods to be supported counteracted by the protruding plug, which also also have a insulating effect.
- the plugs are formed of rubber or the like rubbery material. Rubber has a higher elasticity and a higher coefficient of friction than the material of the plastic pallet and is therefore particularly suitable for the solution of the object according to the invention.
- the plugs preferably have a Shore hardness in a range of A 60 to A 90. While too soft a rubber compound carries the risk of too rapid wear of the plug, is in a too hard rubber compound a sufficient. Slide inhibition no longer guaranteed by the stopper.
- the plugs can have a multiplicity of shapes, in particular an oval, round, rectangular, triangular or other polygonal cross-section.
- the stopper has at least one recess which extends essentially on the stopper longitudinal axis or parallel to it from the upper end face into the interior of the stopper, preferably into an area adjacent to the lower shoulder. It is inventively provided that the recess is opened as a blind hole to the upper end face. The recess improves the elastic deformability of the plug and thus facilitates the assembly of the plug.
- the plugs taper conically from the top to the bottom of the upper deck.
- the recording has a corresponding taper.
- the plugs have a clamping rib which extends transversely to the longitudinal direction of the plug.
- the clamping rib is designed to exert lateral pressure against the receptacle when inserted into the receptacle stopper, and thereby to experience a substantially elastic deformation. In this way, a centering of the plug is achieved in the recording. Thus, the retention of the plug is favored in the receptacle and so that the wear of the plug reduced.
- the clamping rib allows greater manufacturing tolerances for plugging and recording.
- embodiments are provided according to the invention, which have a plurality of clamping ribs in order to further improve the centering of the plug in the receptacle.
- the clamping rib is dimensioned so that it is elastically deformed when inserted into the receptacle, wherein restoring forces are built up, which ensure a firm and / or centered fit of the plug in the recording even with tolerance deviations.
- the clamping rib is formed circumferentially around the plug to optimize the centering of the plug in the receptacle.
- a continuous design of the clamping ribs is to be preferred to a section-wise design, which, however, can also be implemented as required.
- the clamping ribs have a wedge-shaped cross section.
- the tapering direction of the clamping rib corresponds to the tapering direction of the plug. In this way, the insertion of the plug is facilitated in the recording and favors the elastic deformation of the clamping rib.
- a clamping rib is disposed in a lower third of the plugs facing the underside. This has a positive influence on the centering of the plug, and is particularly important in the assembly of importance.
- the plugs have on at least one end a radially outwardly projecting, in particular annular shoulder.
- a radially outwardly projecting upper shoulder also has the advantage that the goods side, anti-slip surface is increased.
- a radially projecting lower shoulder increases the anti-sliding surface on the attack surface for the tines of the lifting device and also prevents squeezing the plug, in particular by the lifting device with unloaded or only partially loaded pallets.
- An upper or lower shoulder is preferably designed to protrude radially beyond an adjacent region of the receiving recess, in order thus to limit an axial penetration of the shoulder into the receptacle by positive engagement.
- At least one receptacle has a particular annular shoulder for the at least partial sinking of a shoulder.
- the step formed by an annular recess is disposed between the loading surface and the underside of the upper deck.
- a portion of the shoulder of the plug is sunk in the upper deck and thus reduces the risk of lateral shearing of the shoulder from the remainder of the plug.
- such a shoulder is arranged on the upper side of the upper deck.
- the upper end face and / or the lower end face of the plug at least partially have a convex, in particular slightly convex shape.
- a convex shape of the upper end surface leads to a reduction of the stress of the plug by acting transversely to the longitudinal direction of the plug forces and to a reduction of wear, without the slide-inhibiting effect of the plug is adversely affected.
- the loading and unloading of the pallet is hereby facilitated.
- the knocking of the plug is facilitated by a convex shape of the lower end face of the plug into the receptacle. Accordingly, a preferred embodiment provides that both end faces of the plug are convex.
- a profile with at least one elevation is formed on the upper end face and / or the lower end face.
- a plurality of local elevations e.g. Pimples
- an elevation may have an elongated shape and extend in any direction over the end face. Accordingly, embodiments are provided according to the invention, in which the increase around a longitudinal axis of the plug around, in particular annular or spiral, extends.
- the top end face of the plug protrudes from 0.5 to 4 mm, in particular to 3 mm or more preferably to 2 mm, beyond the pallet surface. This ensures, on the one hand, that the plug provides the goods to be transported on the pallet enough attack surface to ensure sufficient slip resistance. On the other hand, a restriction of the protrusion of the upper end face of the plug for ensuring a reasonable life of the plug and the intended usability of the pallet is advantageous.
- the plugs can also be arranged in a lower deck, runners, frame and / or support feet. This serves to improve slip resistance of a pallet parked on one surface, in particular a bottom surface or the loading surface of another pallet.
- Pictured plastic pallet 1 serves purely as an illustrative example to illustrate conventional, common palettes. It has a plate-shaped, substantially continuous upper deck 2, which is connected via a plurality of support legs 7 with a pallet base 8, wherein the pallet base 8 is formed in this embodiment as a continuous lower deck. In alternative, not shown embodiments, the pallet base 8 may be formed from the support legs connecting runners or a frame. Other embodiments that have no pallet base 8 are possible within the scope of the invention.
- the upper deck 2 comprises a top 3 and a bottom 4, wherein the bottom 4 faces the support legs 7 and the pallet base 8.
- the loading surface 5 is formed for receiving the abddyde on the transport pallet 1 transport or storage goods.
- a plurality of receptacles 9 for receiving plugs 20, not shown, which are shown only diagrammatically in this illustration and which are described below in FIG Fig. 2 and Fig. 4 be explained in more detail.
- the upper deck 2 in alternative Embodiments comprise a plurality, eg strip-shaped components, which are arranged closely adjacent to each other or spaced apart, and define a common loading surface 5.
- a receiving wall 11 is formed around a receiving longitudinal axis 10 around and defines a cone-shaped receiving space, which widens towards the top 3 out.
- the receiving wall 11 is formed of a plurality of circumferentially and spaced-apart ribs 12 and in this embodiment comprises four ribs 12, which are separated by slots 13 from each other.
- Fig. 3 shows an embodiment of a plug 20 according to the invention in a perspective view.
- the plug 20 is rotationally symmetrical about the plug longitudinal axis 21, and is limited at an upper end by an upper end face 26 and at a lower end by a lower end face 29 in the longitudinal direction.
- the plug may have a plurality of different cross-sections, in particular square, triangular, round or oval.
- the plug 20 includes a radially projecting upper shoulder 22, an intermediate portion 23, and a lower shoulder 24 again projecting radially from the intermediate portion 23.
- the plug 20 has a conical taper from the upper shoulder 22 to the lower shoulder 24.
- a radially projecting and circumferential clamping rib 25 is arranged, which is wedge-shaped in this embodiment and tapers towards the lower shoulder 24.
- the upper shoulder 22 has an upper inner surface 28 and an upper edge region 27.
- a lower inner surface 31 and a lower edge region 30 is formed on the lower shoulder 24, a lower inner surface 31 and a lower edge region 30 is formed.
- the circumferential upper shoulder 22 of the plug 20 has a larger diameter than the circumferential lower shoulder 24.
- the plug 20 preferably comprises a cylindrical recess 33 which extends coaxially to the plug longitudinal axis 21 and is open towards the upper end face 26 of the plug 20.
- the recess 33 is formed in this embodiment as a blind hole and terminates in one of the lower shoulder 24 adjacent region of the plug 20.
- the recess 33 may also be formed as a through hole or end at another location in the plug 20.
- the cross section of the recess 33 is not necessarily round and can, for example be oval, triangular or rectangular.
- the plug 20 may have a plurality of recesses, which preferably extend parallel to the plug longitudinal axis 21.
- elevations 32 are arranged, which extend annularly coaxially around the plug longitudinal axis 21 around.
- the lower end face 29 may also have such elevations 32.
- the upper end surface 26 and lower end surface 29 are formed in this example substantially convex.
- the upper end surface 26 and the lower end surface 29 may have a circumferential chamfer, which is preferably formed in an edge region of the corresponding end face.
- the in Fig. 4 illustrated plug 20 with conical intermediate portion 23 is centrally inserted into the conical receptacle 9, so that the receiving longitudinal axis 10 and plug longitudinal axis 21 coincide.
- the plug 20 projects beyond the shoulder 14 of the receptacle 9 with the upper shoulder 22 and rests with the upper inner surface 28 on the shoulder 14.
- the radially projecting, lower shoulder 24 extends beyond the receiving end 15 radially and thus prevents slipping out of the plug 20 from the receptacle 9.
- a gap is formed in the axial direction, which consists of manufacturing and mounting reasons is preferably present.
- the lower shoulder 24 is bent in particular in the direction of the upper shoulder 22.
- the lower shoulder 24 slides completely through the receiving end 15 and jumps back into the in Fig. 4 shown starting position back.
- a central recess 33 of the plug 20 is formed as a blind hole and extends from the upper end face 26 of the plug into an area adjacent to the lower shoulder 24. It serves to increase the elasticity of the plug 20 with respect to forces acting transversely to the plug longitudinal axis 21, and thus facilitates the hammering of the plug 20 into the receptacle 9.
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Transportpalette aus Kunststoff für den Warenumschlag, mit einem Oberdeck, das auf einer Oberseite eine Beladefläche für Waren und Güter aufweist. Unterhalb des Oberdecks sind Eingriffsöffnungen für Hubvorrichtungen, wie Zinken von Gabelstaplern, ausgebildet, die durch Stützfüße und / oder ein Palettenunterteil begrenzt sind.The invention relates to a transport pallet made of plastic for the handling of goods, with an upper deck having a loading surface for goods and goods on an upper side. Below the upper deck engaging openings for lifting devices, such as forks of forklifts, formed, which are limited by support feet and / or a pallet base.
Transportpaletten aus Kunststoff können sich gegen Transportpaletten aus Holz oder Metall wegen ihrer positiven Eigenschaften - insbesondere hohen Stabilität, langen Lebensdauer, guten Reinigbarkeit, Preisgünstigkeit, Beständigkeit gegen Korrosion sowie viele Säuren und Laugen, guten Recyclebarkeit und ihres niedrigen Eigengewichts - auf dem Markt zunehmend behaupten.Plastic transport pallets can increasingly assert themselves against transport pallets of wood or metal because of their positive properties - in particular high stability, long service life, good cleanability, low cost, resistance to corrosion as well as many acids and alkalis, good recyclability and their low dead weight.
Kunststoffpaletten haben wegen des hohen Härtegrads ihres Werkstoffs einen niedrigen Reibungskoeffizienten, was die Gefahr in sich birgt, dass auf der Beladefläche der Kunststoffpalette geladene Waren beim Transport verrutschen und sogar von der Palette fallen können. Darüber hinaus besteht das Risiko des Abgleitens der Palette von der Hubvorrichtung, etwa von in die Eingriffsöffnungen der Palette eingreifenden Zinken eines Gabelstaplers, so dass eine von der Hubvorrichtung aufgenommene Palette einschließlich Ladung während des Transports durch die Hubvorrichtung von dieser herunterfallen kann. Eine weitere Gefahr besteht im Verrutschen der Palette auf einem glatten und / oder geneigten Untergrund, insbesondere feuchten, verschmutzten oder schmierigen Untergrund.Plastic pallets have a low coefficient of friction because of the high degree of hardness of their material, which involves the risk that goods loaded on the pallet of the plastic pallet may slip during transport and even fall off the pallet. In addition, there is a risk of slipping the pallet off the lifting device, such as tines of a forklift engaging the pallet engaging holes, so that a pallet received by the lifting device, including cargo during transport through the lifting device, may fall therefrom. Another danger is the slipping of the pallet on a smooth and / or inclined ground, especially moist, dirty or greasy ground.
Zur Reduzierung dieser Gefahren und Risiken sind bereits eine Vielzahl von technischen Lösungen bekannt. So beschreibt
Die rutschhemmenden Schichten werden jeweils über ein aufwendiges, mehrstufiges Spritzgießverfahren auf der Palette aufgebracht. Des Weiteren können diese Schichten im Falle ihres Verschleißes, der insbesondere durch Abrasion auftritt, nur mit erheblichem Aufwand wieder hergestellt werden.The slip-resistant layers are each applied to the pallet via a complex, multi-step injection molding process. Furthermore, in the case of their wear, which occurs in particular by abrasion, these layers can be restored only with considerable effort.

Unterhalb der Unterseite sind Eingriffsöffnungen für Hubvorrichtungen, wie z.B. Zinken von Gabelstaplern, vorgesehen, wobei die Eingriffsöffnungen durch Stützfüße seitlich begrenzt sind. Nach unten können die Eingriffsöffnungen offen oder durch ein Palettenunterteil, insbesondere ein Unterdeck, einen Rahmen oder Kufen, begrenzt sein. Im Oberdeck sind Aufnahmen mit einer inneren Aufnahmeausnehmung ausgebildet, in denen Stopfen angeordnet sind, wobei die Stopfen aus einem elastisch kompressiblen Material mit einem höheren Reibwert als der Palettenwerkstoff gebildet sind, so dass diese im Vergleich zum Kunststoff rutschhemmend sind. Die Stopfen weisen an einem Längsende eine obere Stirnfläche und an dem anderen Längsende eine untere Stirnfläche auf, und erstrecken sich bei Anordnung in der Palette von der Oberseite des Oberdecks bis zur Unterseite des Oberdecks. Dabei ragen die obere Stirnfläche und / oder die untere Stirnfläche der Stopfen aus dem Oberdeck zumindest teilweise heraus. Da die Stopfen gleithemmend, insbesondere mit einem höheren Reibwert als die Kunststoffpalette ausgebildet sind, bewirken sie eine gleichzeitige Verbesserung der Rutschhemmung der Beladefläche für Waren und der Angriffsfläche für die Hubvorrichtung. Der elastische Werkstoff der Stopfen hat weiterhin den Vorteil, dass er besonders gut elastisch verformbar ist und der Stopfen somit der Geometrie der Aufnahme besser anpassbar ist als ein vergleichbarer Stopfen aus einem weniger elastischen Material. Dies ermöglicht größere Fertigungstoleranzen sowie eine leichtere Montage des Stopfens. Darüber hinaus wird somit einer Beschädigung der zu tragenden Ware durch die hervorstehenden Stopfen entgegengewirkt, die zudem auch eine dämmende Wirkung haben.The plastic transport pallet according to the invention comprises an upper deck with a top and a bottom. On the top of a loading area for goods and goods is formed. Below the bottom engaging openings for lifting devices, such as tines of forklifts, provided, wherein the engagement openings are laterally limited by support legs. Down the engagement openings may be open or limited by a pallet base, in particular a lower deck, a frame or runners. In the upper deck receptacles are formed with an inner receiving recess in which plugs are arranged, wherein the plugs are formed of an elastically compressible material having a higher coefficient of friction than the pallet material, so that they are slip-resistant compared to the plastic. The plugs have an upper end surface at one longitudinal end and a lower end surface at the other longitudinal end, and when arranged in the pallet extend from the top of the upper deck to the lower surface of the upper deck. In this case, the upper end face and / or the lower end face of the plug protrude from the upper deck at least partially. Since the plugs gleithemmend, in particular with a higher coefficient of friction than the plastic pallet are formed, they effect a simultaneous improvement of the slip resistance of the loading surface for goods and the attack surface for the lifting device. The elastic material of the plug has the further advantage that it is particularly well elastically deformable and the plug thus the geometry of the recording is better adaptable than a comparable stopper made of a less elastic material. This allows greater manufacturing tolerances and easier assembly of the plug. In addition, thus being damaged the goods to be supported counteracted by the protruding plug, which also also have a insulating effect.
Vorzugsweise sind die Stopfen aus Gummi oder dergleichen kautschukartigem Material ausgebildet. Gummi hat eine höhere Elastizität sowie einen höheren Reibwert als der Werkstoff der Kunststoffpalette und ist daher für die Lösung der erfindungsgemäßen Aufgabe besonders geeignet.Preferably, the plugs are formed of rubber or the like rubbery material. Rubber has a higher elasticity and a higher coefficient of friction than the material of the plastic pallet and is therefore particularly suitable for the solution of the object according to the invention.
In einem weiteren Aspekt der Erfindung weisen die Stopfen vorzugsweise eine Shore Härte in einem Bereich von A 60 bis A 90 auf. Während eine zu weiche Gummimischung die Gefahr einer zu schnellen Abnutzung der Stopfen birgt, ist bei einer zu harten Gummimischung eine ausreichende. Gleithemmung durch den Stopfen nicht mehr gewährleistet.In a further aspect of the invention, the plugs preferably have a Shore hardness in a range of A 60 to A 90. While too soft a rubber compound carries the risk of too rapid wear of the plug, is in a too hard rubber compound a sufficient. Slide inhibition no longer guaranteed by the stopper.
Erfindungsgemäß können die Stopfen eine Vielzahl von Formen, insbesondere einen ovalen, runden, rechteckigen, dreieckigen oder sonstigen vieleckigen Querschnitt, aufweisen.According to the invention, the plugs can have a multiplicity of shapes, in particular an oval, round, rectangular, triangular or other polygonal cross-section.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung weist der Stopfen mindestens eine Ausnehmung auf, die sich im Wesentlichen auf der Stopfenlängsachse oder parallel zu dieser von der oberen Stirnfläche in das Innere des Stopfens erstreckt, vorzugsweise bis in einen der unteren Schulter benachbarten Bereich. Dabei ist es erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen, dass die Ausnehmung als Sackloch zur oberen Stirnfläche hin geöffnet ist. Die Ausnehmung verbessert die elastische Deformierbarkeit des Stopfens und erleichtert somit die Montage des Stopfens.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the stopper has at least one recess which extends essentially on the stopper longitudinal axis or parallel to it from the upper end face into the interior of the stopper, preferably into an area adjacent to the lower shoulder. It is inventively provided that the recess is opened as a blind hole to the upper end face. The recess improves the elastic deformability of the plug and thus facilitates the assembly of the plug.
Erfindungsgemäß verjüngen sich die Stopfen von der Oberseite zur Unterseite des Oberdecks hin konisch. Die Aufnahme weist eine entsprechende Verjüngung auf. Hierdurch werden die Montage des Stopfens sowie die Steifigkeit der Aufnahme verbessert. Darüber hinaus wird das Risiko des Herausdrückens des Stopfens aus der Aufnahme durch die Hubvorrichtung erheblich reduziert.According to the invention, the plugs taper conically from the top to the bottom of the upper deck. The recording has a corresponding taper. As a result, the assembly of the plug and the rigidity of the recording are improved. In addition, the risk of squeezing the plug out of the receptacle by the lifting device is considerably reduced.
Des Weiteren weisen die Stopfen erfindungsgemäß eine Klemmrippe auf, die sich quer zur Längsrichtung des Stopfens erstreckt. Die Klemmrippe ist ausgebildet, bei in die Aufnahme eingesetztem Stopfen seitlich Druck gegen die Aufnahme auszuüben, und hierdurch eine im Wesentlichen elastische Verformung zu erfahren. Auf diese Weise wird eine Zentrierung des Stopfens in der Aufnahme erreicht. Somit wird das Verbleiben des Stopfens in der Aufnahme begünstigt und damit der Verschleiß des Stopfens reduziert. Darüber hinaus ermöglicht die Klemmrippe größere Fertigungstoleranzen für Stopfen und Aufnahme. Ferner sind Ausführungsformen erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen, die mehrere Klemmrippen aufweisen, um die Zentrierung des Stopfens in der Aufnahme weiter zu verbessern. In vorteilhafter Weise ist die Klemmrippe so dimensioniert, dass sie beim Einsetzen in die Aufnahme elastisch deformiert wird, wobei Rückstellkräfte aufgebaut werden, die einen festen und / oder zentrierten Sitz des Stopfens in der Aufnahme auch bei Toleranzabweichungen gewährleisten.Furthermore, according to the invention, the plugs have a clamping rib which extends transversely to the longitudinal direction of the plug. The clamping rib is designed to exert lateral pressure against the receptacle when inserted into the receptacle stopper, and thereby to experience a substantially elastic deformation. In this way, a centering of the plug is achieved in the recording. Thus, the retention of the plug is favored in the receptacle and so that the wear of the plug reduced. In addition, the clamping rib allows greater manufacturing tolerances for plugging and recording. Furthermore, embodiments are provided according to the invention, which have a plurality of clamping ribs in order to further improve the centering of the plug in the receptacle. Advantageously, the clamping rib is dimensioned so that it is elastically deformed when inserted into the receptacle, wherein restoring forces are built up, which ensure a firm and / or centered fit of the plug in the recording even with tolerance deviations.
Vorzugsweise ist die Klemmrippe um den Stopfen herum umlaufend ausgebildet, um die Zentrierung des Stopfens in der Aufnahme zu optimieren. Unter fertigungstechnischen Gesichtspunkten ist hierbei eine durchgängige Ausbildung der Klemmrippen einer abschnittsweisen Ausbildung vorzuziehen, die aber bedarfsweise ebenfalls realisiert werden kann.Preferably, the clamping rib is formed circumferentially around the plug to optimize the centering of the plug in the receptacle. From a manufacturing point of view, a continuous design of the clamping ribs is to be preferred to a section-wise design, which, however, can also be implemented as required.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform weisen die Klemmrippen einen keilförmigen Querschnitt auf. Die Verjüngungsrichtung der Klemmrippe entspricht dabei der Verjüngungsrichtung des Stopfens. Auf diese Weise wird das Einsetzen des Stopfens in die Aufnahme erleichtert sowie die elastische Deformation der Klemmrippe begünstigt.In a preferred embodiment, the clamping ribs have a wedge-shaped cross section. The tapering direction of the clamping rib corresponds to the tapering direction of the plug. In this way, the insertion of the plug is facilitated in the recording and favors the elastic deformation of the clamping rib.
In einem anderen Aspekt ist eine Klemmrippe in einem der Unterseite zugewandten unteren Drittel der Stopfen angeordnet. Dies hat einen positiven Einfluss auf das Zentrieren des Stopfens, und ist insbesondere bei der Montage von Bedeutung.In another aspect, a clamping rib is disposed in a lower third of the plugs facing the underside. This has a positive influence on the centering of the plug, and is particularly important in the assembly of importance.
In einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung weisen die Stopfen an wenigstens einem Ende eine radial nach außen vorstehende, insbesondere ringförmige Schulter auf. Hierbei kann es sich sowohl um eine obere Schulter, die an einem der Oberseite des Oberdecks zugewandten Bereich des Stopfens angeordnet ist, als auch um eine untere Schulter handeln, die an einem der Unterseite des Oberdecks zugewandten Bereich angeordnet ist. Eine radial nach außen vorstehende obere Schulter hat zugleich den Vorteil, dass die warenseitige, gleithemmende Fläche vergrößert wird. Eine radial vorstehende untere Schulter vergrößert die gleithemmende Fläche auf der Angriffsfläche für die Zinken der Hubvorrichtung und verhindert darüber hinaus ein Herausdrücken des Stopfens, insbesondere durch die Hubvorrichtung bei unbeladenen bzw. nur teilweise beladenen Paletten. Eine obere bzw. untere Schulter ist vorzugsweise derart ausgebildet, einen benachbarten Bereich der Aufnahmeausnehmung radial zu überragen, um somit durch Formschluss ein axiales Eindringen der Schulter in die Aufnahme zu begrenzen.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the plugs have on at least one end a radially outwardly projecting, in particular annular shoulder. This can be both an upper shoulder, which is arranged on an upper side of the upper deck facing the region of the plug, as well as a lower shoulder, which is arranged on a lower side of the upper deck facing area. A radially outwardly projecting upper shoulder also has the advantage that the goods side, anti-slip surface is increased. A radially projecting lower shoulder increases the anti-sliding surface on the attack surface for the tines of the lifting device and also prevents squeezing the plug, in particular by the lifting device with unloaded or only partially loaded pallets. An upper or lower shoulder is preferably designed to protrude radially beyond an adjacent region of the receiving recess, in order thus to limit an axial penetration of the shoulder into the receptacle by positive engagement.
Weiterhin ist bevorzugt, dass mindestens eine Aufnahme einen insbesondere ringförmigen Absatz zur zumindest teilweisen Versenkung einer Schulter aufweist. Der durch eine ringförmige Ausnehmung gebildete Absatz ist zwischen der Beladefläche und der Unterseite des Oberdecks angeordnet. Auf diese Weise wird ein Teil der Schulter des Stopfens in dem Oberdeck versenkt und somit die Gefahr eines seitlichen Abscherens der Schulter vom restlichen Teil des Stopfens vermindert. Vorzugsweise ist ein derartiger Absatz auf der Oberseite des Oberdecks angeordnet.Furthermore, it is preferred that at least one receptacle has a particular annular shoulder for the at least partial sinking of a shoulder. The step formed by an annular recess is disposed between the loading surface and the underside of the upper deck. In this way, a portion of the shoulder of the plug is sunk in the upper deck and thus reduces the risk of lateral shearing of the shoulder from the remainder of the plug. Preferably, such a shoulder is arranged on the upper side of the upper deck.
Ein weiterer Aspekt der Erfindung sieht vor, dass die obere Stirnfläche und / oder die untere Stirnfläche der Stopfen zumindest teilweise eine konvexe, insbesondere leicht konvexe Form aufweisen. Eine konvexe Form der oberen Stirnfläche führt zu einer Reduzierung der Beanspruchung der Stopfen durch quer zur Längsrichtung des Stopfens wirkende Kräfte sowie zu einer Verminderung des Verschleißes, ohne dass die gleithemmende Wirkung der Stopfen negativ beeinflusst wird. Ferner wird das Be- und Entladen der Palette hiermit erleichtert. Darüber hinaus wird durch eine konvexe Form der unteren Stirnfläche des Stopfens das Einschlagen des Stopfens in die Aufnahme erleichtert. Demnach sieht eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform vor, dass beide Stirnflächen der Stopfen konvex ausgebildet sind.Another aspect of the invention provides that the upper end face and / or the lower end face of the plug at least partially have a convex, in particular slightly convex shape. A convex shape of the upper end surface leads to a reduction of the stress of the plug by acting transversely to the longitudinal direction of the plug forces and to a reduction of wear, without the slide-inhibiting effect of the plug is adversely affected. Furthermore, the loading and unloading of the pallet is hereby facilitated. In addition, the knocking of the plug is facilitated by a convex shape of the lower end face of the plug into the receptacle. Accordingly, a preferred embodiment provides that both end faces of the plug are convex.
In anderen Aspekten ist an der oberen Stirnfläche und / oder der unteren Stirnfläche ein Profil mit mindestens einer Erhöhung ausgebildet. Es sind Ausführungsformen mit einer Vielzahl von lokalen Erhöhungen, z.B. Noppen, möglich. Darüber hinaus kann eine Erhöhung eine längliche Ausprägung aufweisen und sich in beliebiger Richtung über die Stirnfläche erstrecken. Demnach sind Ausführungsformen erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen, bei denen sich die Erhöhung um eine Längsachse des Stopfens herum, insbesondere ring- oder spiralförmig, erstreckt. Durch eine Profilierung erfährt die entsprechende Stirnfläche des Stopfens eine Erhöhung des effektiven Reibwerts und dient somit der Steigerung der durch die Stopfen bewirkten Gleithemmung.In other aspects, a profile with at least one elevation is formed on the upper end face and / or the lower end face. There are embodiments with a plurality of local elevations, e.g. Pimples, possible. In addition, an elevation may have an elongated shape and extend in any direction over the end face. Accordingly, embodiments are provided according to the invention, in which the increase around a longitudinal axis of the plug around, in particular annular or spiral, extends. By profiling the corresponding end face of the plug undergoes an increase in the effective coefficient of friction and thus serves to increase the caused by the plug slip inhibition.
In einem weiteren Aspekt ragt zumindest ein Teil der oberen Stirnfläche des Stopfens zwischen 0,5 und 4 mm, insbesondere bis 3 mm oder weiter bevorzugt bis 2 mm, über die Palettenoberfläche heraus. Hierdurch wird einerseits gewährleistet, dass der Stopfen den auf der Palette zu transportierenden Waren genügend Angriffsfläche bietet, um eine ausreichende Gleithemmung sicherzustellen. Andererseits ist eine Beschränkung des Herausragens der oberen Stirnfläche des Stopfens für die Gewährleistung einer angemessenen Lebensdauer des Stopfens sowie die bestimmungsgemäße Benutzbarkeit der Palette vorteilhaft.In a further aspect, at least a portion of the top end face of the plug protrudes from 0.5 to 4 mm, in particular to 3 mm or more preferably to 2 mm, beyond the pallet surface. This ensures, on the one hand, that the plug provides the goods to be transported on the pallet enough attack surface to ensure sufficient slip resistance. On the other hand, a restriction of the protrusion of the upper end face of the plug for ensuring a reasonable life of the plug and the intended usability of the pallet is advantageous.
In anderen Aspekten sind die Stopfen auch in einem Unterdeck, Kufen, Rahmen und / oder Stützfüßen anordenbar. Dies dient einer verbesserten Rutschhemmung einer auf einer Oberfläche - insbesondere einer Bodenfläche oder der Beladefläche einer anderen Palette - abgestellten Palette.In other aspects, the plugs can also be arranged in a lower deck, runners, frame and / or support feet. This serves to improve slip resistance of a pallet parked on one surface, in particular a bottom surface or the loading surface of another pallet.
