  • the use of ultrasonic sensor technology for detecting and evaluating the height of a stack of goods within a goods or warehouse control system is also known DE 198 22 456 A1 .
  • JP 9208018 A and from EP 0 247 785 A2 In this case, a computer-implemented distance measurement is carried out between a sensor and an uppermost product of a product stack, and from this a stacking height of the products stacked one above the other is determined and from this the actual inventory of the products is concluded. For this purpose, so far elaborately constructed recording and dispensing devices are used.

  • an outer housing forming container in the interior of the portal element, preferably from above, is used.
  • the outer housing-forming container is preferably designed to be open.
  • the outer housing-forming container can be formed by an upwardly open box with an end-side engagement opening.
  • the portal element can be formed from a rectangular flat material with two fold lines extending parallel to one another and folded such that an upside-down U-shape results, the upper portal wall preferably being flat and preferably perpendicular to the lateral portal walls or portal struts runs.
  • the portal element is set in the outer housing-forming container and is supported on the bottom-side base.
  • the side walls and the base-side base of the housing-forming container and the lateral portal walls or portal struts and the upper portal wall of the portal element define a receiving space for the products.
  • the senor may be mounted on the side facing away from the vorzuhaltenden products side of the upper portal wall. He is then protected from external influences and separated from the products and intentionally so far inaccessible.
  • a sensor signal that is to say in particular an ultrasonic signal, can be emitted and received again through the aforementioned opening in the upper portal wall in the direction of an upper side of an uppermost product of a product stack. But it can also be provided for this purpose more openings in the upper portal wall.
  • the outer housing-forming receptacle per se must have only a housing-forming function and preferably a sufficient dimensional stability in order to be able to receive the products to be kept safely and to ensure a permanent use of the device as a whole.
  • This can be realized in many ways.
  • the container is also formed from a blank of a flat material by a number of folds of the blank. It may be designed to be open in particular at the base remote from the upper end, which makes the insertion of the portal element in the interior of the housing very simple.
  • the flat material for forming the container or the portal element is preferably wipeable, moisture-stable and liquid-stable and inert to detergents, such as surfactants. It is preferably not a material that can give particles themselves, especially dust. As such, paperboard or paper materials are less preferred. Polymeric materials, such as polyolefins, especially PP or PE or mixtures thereof, are advantageous.
  • the sheet may be single-ply or multi-ply.
  • the flat material for the outer housing-forming container and / or for the portal element is a hollow chamber flat material with preferably parallel to each other extending hollow chambers, in particular two each comprise an outer side facing flat sides with extending between these chamber walls.
  • They may in particular and preferably be made of polypropylene.
  • only recyclable materials would be used which, in contrast to fundamentally eligible board materials, do not tend to form dust and are largely insensitive to atmospheric moisture and thus resistant to aging.
  • Flat materials formed from plastic materials can also form even more dimensionally stable and durable than flat materials formed from cardboard materials. When burned completely, only carbon dioxide and water are released.
  • Flat materials with cavities extending parallel to one another can be folded extremely well, in particular if the fold line runs parallel to the elongated hollow chambers. They also offer a high resistance against compression pressure.
  • the housing-forming container has rounded, in particular taken cut edges and marginal edges. At least those in the area of access lying edges and edges of the container should be formed rounded by having an inwardly wrapped edge region. For this purpose, in particular those edge areas in question, which limit the front-side discharge opening of the container, but also all other edge areas, in particular those that are in the manual access area. Thus be open edges are avoided and the risk of injury is reduced.
  • the use of multilayer composite materials with hollow chambers also prevents penetration and accumulation of dust.

  • This foldable tab thus serves as a stacking aid, but also as a fastener or stabilizer between several stacked housing forming containers.
  • the mentioned fold-out tab can be applied for example in the course of the production of the blank by cutting or punching or perforating the sheet.
  • a slot-shaped opening is provided or applied at a position corresponding to the position of the fold-out tab.
