The support beam 3 with integrally formed connecting means 4 of FIG. 8 corresponds apart from the missing recess for clamping means substantially the embodiment according to FIG. 4 , The support beam 3 with integrally formed holding device 4 of FIG. 9 is mirror-symmetrical to the design FIG. 8 educated.

FIG. 10 shows in perspective a support beam 3 according to the first preferred embodiment. On the support member 3, the connecting means 4 is formed. The bottom plate 12 is formed integrally with the support spar 3. The retaining sleeve 16 points to a support element 17, supported by strut 15, and second connecting elements 13. The support member 3 is guided by the shaft 14 slidably. Support spar 3 and retaining sleeve 16 are about first Connecting elements 10 and second connecting elements 13, both formed as holes, connected. Not shown are the screws or bolts, which are guided through the holes.

FIG. 11 shows a support beam 3 with integrally formed connecting means 4. Shown is also the plug-in block 18, which is inserted between the boundary surface 4a of the connecting means 4 and the spacer of the first pallet, not shown, within one of its recesses. The plug block 18 counteracts an advantageous for the insertion of the second pallet relative movement between the support member 3 and not shown first pallet, especially during transport. According to a preferred embodiment, the boundary surface 4a has a projection which engages in a groove of the plug-in block 18 and counteracts an undesirable displacement of the plug-in block 18 during transport.

FIG. 12 shows a pallet 20 with loading floor 21, spacer 22 and bottom board 23. Below the loading floor 21 and through recesses 24 of the pallet 20, the Hubhilfseinrichtung 19 is guided. According to a preferred embodiment, the Hubhilfseinrichtung 19 is made of a fiber-reinforced plastic or a metal profile. Within the recesses of the pallet 20, the Hubhilfseinrichtung 19 engages under the horizontal support surface 4b of the connecting means 4, not shown. When a lifting means is guided in the recess 24 and the pallet is raised, the support spar 3 is not shown on the horizontal support surface 4b and the Hubhilfseinrichtung 19th supported on the lifting means. Advantageously, the floorboard 23 is not part of the power flow.

FIG. 13 shows an arrangement with a first pallet 20, a second pallet 25, transport auxiliary device 1, and clamping means 26, here designed as a tension belt. The integrally formed with the support bars 3 connecting means 4 engage around the spacers 22 of the first pallet 20. Below the loading floor, the Hubhilfseinrichtung 19 is arranged. The holding collars 16, 16 a are arranged at the same distance from the loading floor 21 of the first pallet 20. The second pallet 25 rests against the support surfaces 17, 17a of the retaining sleeves 16, 16a. The support members 3 are secured against the unwanted relative movement during transport by means of the tensioning belt 26. The tension belt 26 also runs around two further, not shown in this view support bars. The support struts 3, 3a extend beyond the support elements 17, 17a and abut the second pallet 25, in particular at their spacers. Thus, the strained support bars 3 an undesirable horizontal displacement of the second pallet 25 counteract advantageous.

FIG. 14 shows a further preferred embodiment of the transport auxiliary device 1 with specially trained support beam 3. The support beam 3 of this preferred embodiment is formed with legs which are hingedly connected to each other via the hinge 27. On one of the legs a power transmission piece 4 is formed. At the other leg of the support beam 3, the bottom plate 12 is formed. The connection of transport auxiliary device 1 with the pallet, not shown, is initially without holding device 5 vonstatten. First, the bottom plate 12 is placed under the floorboard of the first pallet. The connected to the bottom plate 12 leg of the support beam 3 is pushed to rest with the first pallet. Subsequently, the leg is folded with integrally formed power transmission piece 4 to the bottom plate 12 and the first pallet. In this case, the power transmission piece 4 is pushed into a recess of the pallet, not shown. The horizontal support surface 4b is arranged below the loading floor. Subsequently, the holding device 5 is placed from above on the support means, so that the support member 3 threads into the channel 14.
