pallet container

The invention relates to a pallet container with a pallet base, as well as with a Faltwandungsring which is displaceable between an established functional position and a folded rest position, and with a pallet lid, which is held by means of at least one connecting means on the Faltwandungsring.

Such a pallet container is known from EP 2 256 051 B1. Such a pallet container has a designed as a plastic molded pallet base. The pallet container also has four side walls, which are connected to a Faltwandungsring with each other, which is inserted in the raised functional position in a bottom groove in an edge region of the Palettenbodens and thus secured to the pallet base. A side wall of the Faltwandungsrings is also held on the bottom side by means of a hinge arrangement on the pallet base. The folding wall can be folded flat and placed on the pallet floor. In addition, a pallet lid is provided which is connected via sliding hinges with an upper edge of a side wall of the Faltwandungsrings. Using the Gleitschar- kidney the pallet cover can be tilted relative to the erected Faltwandungsring and laterally along a side wall of the Faltwandungsrings be stored and lowered together with the folded Faltwandungsring on the pallet floor. The pallet lid sits flush on the edge area of the pallet floor and covers the folded folding wall ring. The pallet cover remains permanently connected to the side wall of the folding wall ring via the sliding hinges. The Faltwandungsring is permanently connected via the hinge assembly with the pallet cover.

The object of the invention is to provide a pallet container of the type mentioned, which can be set up with simple means or compact collapsible.

This object is achieved in that the connecting means is designed as a flexible connecting strand, which is permanently connected to the pallet lid and the Faltwandungsring. In this case, the at least one flexible connecting strand can be fastened to the pallet lid or to a side wall of the folding wall ring. At the other part, ie on the side wall or on the pallet cover, the flexible connecting strand is mounted in accordance with relatively movable. Due to the at least one flexible connecting strand, a particularly simple connection of the pallet cover to the Faltwandungsring is achieved, which ensures a high reliability. Advantageously, both the pallet base and the pallet cover are produced as plastic molded parts, preferably as twin-sheet components, which are double-walled by jointly deep-drawing two plastic films in a corresponding manner. the twin-sheet tool are produced, resulting in cavities and sections welds between the two plastic walls. The Faltwandungsring can also be made as a twin-sheet component made of plastic. Alternatively, the Faltwandungsring is manufactured as a single-shell plastic component or as a multi-layer component of other suitable materials, which allow folding or folding corresponding side walls of the Faltwandungsrings. As a flexible connecting strand, a connecting cable, a connecting belt, a connecting belt or a connecting band is provided. The connecting strand is preferably designed as a textile band mesh, fabric or - knitted fabric. Advantageously, the connecting strand is fiber-reinforced, in particular glass or carbon fiber reinforced. The at least one flexible connecting strand is preferably permanently connected to the pallet cover or the folding wall ring by means of mechanical fastening means.

In an embodiment of the invention, the flexible connecting strand is at least partially designed elastically yielding. The connecting strand can either be elastically yielding over its entire length or designed to be elastically yielding only over part of its length. Preferably, an elastically yielding strand section is fixedly connected to an inelastic flexible strand section. As elastically yielding strand section is advantageously a rubber band or rubber ring provided or a band or ring of a different elastomeric material. In a further embodiment of the invention, the at least one flexible connecting strand runs in the region of an underside of the pallet cover and is fastened to the pallet cover, and the connecting strand is guided through a guide eye on a side wall of the Faltwandungsrings. The guide eye is preferably integrally integrated in the side wall of the Faltwandungsrings. The guide eye is preferably positioned below an upper edge region of the side wall - based on the established functional position of the Faltwandungsrings.

In an alternative embodiment of the invention, the at least one flexible connecting strand extends in the vertical direction along a side wall of the Faltwandungsrings, and the connecting strand is guided through a guide eye on an underside of the pallet lid. This alternative embodiment reverses the functional principle of the previously described embodiment. In this embodiment, the connecting strand is not on the underside of the pallet cover, but rather on the outside in the region of the side wall of the Faltwandungsrings, and the pallet cover is displaceably held on the connecting strand by an underside of the pallet cover - preferably at an edge region - with a guide eye is provided, through which the connecting strand is passed. The guide eye can be provided in the region of a circumferential edge region of the pallet cover or in the region of an inner side of the pallet cover. In any case, the guide eyelet is firmly connected to the pallet cover by the guide eye is either integrally formed on the pallet cover or by suitable fastening means in the region of the bottom, ie the edge or inside, is attached to the pallet cover.

In a further embodiment of the invention, the guide eye for the connecting strand is designed as a passage slot in the region of an upper edge of the side wall of the Faltwandungsrings. The passage slot is integrally formed in the side wall of the Faltwandungsrings. The passage slot can be formed directly in the manufacture in a single-stage manufacturing process, or alternatively produced after production of the side wall and the Faltwandungsrings by cutting out in the form of stamping, embossing, cutting or the like.

In a further embodiment of the invention, the connecting strand is designed as a tear-resistant webbing, and a free cross-section of the passage slot is adapted to a cross section of the webbing, that the webbing slides in a displacement of the pallet cover relative to the side wall without rotation through the passage slot. This results in the webbing a sliding guide through the passage slot therethrough.

The flexible connecting strand is advantageously connected to the pallet cover or to the folding wall ring at two opposite end regions, so that a loop with a closed path is achieved for the connecting strand, along which the guide eye and the connecting strand can perform a limited relative movement with respect to one another. The length of the path of the loop is selected so that the pallet cover between its closed position and its open position can be displaced relative to the Faltwandungsring and permanently connected via this path with the Faltwandungsring.

In a further embodiment of the invention, at least two parallel connecting strands are arranged in the region of the underside of the pallet lid. As a result, a parallel guidance of the pallet cover can be achieved relative to the corresponding side wall of the Faltwandungsrings, thereby simplifying the handling of the pallet cover when opening or closing the pallet container.

In a further embodiment of the invention or the pallet container according to the preamble of claim 1, the Faltwandungsring is in the region of its underside by means of at least one nes flexible strap held on the pallet floor. The at least one flexible strap secures the Faltwandungsring on the pallet floor. The flexibility and a length of the tether are designed so that the Faltwandungsring transferred into its folded or folded position of rest and can be placed flat on an upper surface of the pallet base without the tether impedes corresponding folding or pivoting movements. Preferably, two or more along the one side wall distributed flexible retaining straps are provided, which in addition to a captive when folding the folded Faltwandungsrings on the top of the pallet base have a kind of hinge effect for the Faltwandungsring. This ensures that the folding wall is inevitably already correctly positioned when it is folded over into the resting position resting on the pallet floor in order to set the pallet cover on the edge contour of the pallet floor on the contour of the pallet.

In a further embodiment of the invention, the flexible tether at least partially designed elastically yielding. Preferably, the tether is elastically yielding over its entire length, advantageously made of an elastomer material, in particular rubber. The tether may be striped or looped. Advantageously, the elastic tether is sized so that it is permanently under elastic tension. As a result, the Faltwandungsring inevitably be drawn into a corresponding edge groove of the pallet base when setting up. This is particularly advantageous with a low edge area of the pallet base.

In a further embodiment of the invention, the flexible tether a thickened securing portion and at a distance from the securing portion on a retaining lug, and the Faltwandungsring has a passage slot through which the tether is passed, wherein the passage slot is narrower than the thickened securing portion. This configuration allows a particularly simple assembly and disassembly of the flexible tether. The thickened securing portion is preferably provided at an end portion of the tether. The securing portion may comprise a separate component which is fixedly connected to the tether. Particularly preferably, the securing portion is designed as piping, wherein advantageously the holding band is designed in the end region as a loop in which a Kederbolzen is held. The Kederbolzen can be advantageously made of metal or plastic. The Kederbolzen may be force, shape and / or cohesively held in the loop of the tether. The Kederbolzen may have different geometric contours, in particular cylindrical or cuboid contours. In a further embodiment of the invention, a fastening element is provided for holding the tether on the pallet base, which penetrates the retaining eye. The fastening element can be designed in particular as a fastening screw or as a fastening rivet. The fastener is firmly connected in the assembled state with the pallet base. In the area of the pallet base, a passage with an internal thread complementary to the fastening screw can be provided. The internal thread may be part of a nut that is firmly anchored to or in the pallet floor. The passage in the region of the pallet base for receiving the fastening element can be provided with a reinforcement.

Fig. 21 is a perspective exploded view of the portion of FIG. 20 seen from the outside and

22 is a perspective exploded view of the portion of FIGS. 20 and

21 seen from the inside. A pallet container 1 according to FIGS. 1 to 19 has a pallet base 2, a Faltwandungsring 3 and a pallet cover 4. The pallet base 2 is provided with a rectangular base and has a plurality of downwardly projecting support feet, by means of which the pallet base 2 rests on a substrate. The support feet are spaced from each other so that a fork of a forklift can engage and lift the pallet base 2 from each side. The pallet base 2 is double-walled made of plastic. The support legs are double-walled made of plastic. Alternatively, the support legs are single-shell made of injection-molded plastic. The support feet are either formed integrally with the pallet base 2 or manufactured separately and attached after completion by means of mechanical fasteners from below to the pallet base 2. The pallet base 2 and the support feet are made in a twin-sheet process of two plastic plates, which are deep-drawn together to form cavities and welded together at their contact points to form stiffening ribs. This results in a double-shell, double-walled hollow body for the pallet base 2, which has a high rigidity and impact resistance. The plastic material selected for the pallet base 2 is a thermoplastic, preferably HDPE.

The pallet base 2 has a peripheral edge region, which projects upwards and is arranged externally adjacent to a bottom groove 2, which represents a groove-shaped circumferential recess in the region of a surface of the pallet base 2. The bottom groove 20 serves to insert the Faltwandungsrings 3 in its established functional position.

The Faltwandungsring 3 has in its established functional position (see in particular Figs. 1 and 8) has a rectangular cross-sectional shape, which is formed by a total of four side walls 5 to 8. The side walls 5 to 8 are formed by a front side wall 6, by a rear side wall 5 and diametrically opposite lateral side walls 7, 8. All side walls 5 to 8 are connected in their corner regions 10 by means of a respective film hinge over its entire height continuously. In the front side wall 6, a front flap 1 1 is also integrated, which is movably mounted between a closed position and an open position and allows front access to the interior of the pallet container 1. On the opposite lateral side walls 7, 8, a further fold line 9 extending parallel to the corner regions 10 is additionally provided in each case. In the established functional position of the Faltwandungsrings 3 lower edge portions of the side walls 5 to 8 are inserted into corresponding portions of the bottom groove of the pallet base 2, so that the Faltwandungsring 3 is securely held in the pallet base 2. In addition, locking means are provided in a manner not shown which, when the folding-wall ring 3 is raised, prevents it from being raised in its set-up functional position. that the Faltwandungsring 3 can be lifted from the pallet base 2. Raising the Faltwandungsrings 3 rather inevitably also means that the pallet base 2, which is positively connected via the locking means with the Faltwandungsring 3, is raised with. The Faltwandungsring 3 can be converted from the established Funktionsposi- tion according to FIGS. 1, 4, 8, 10 in a compact folding position by the Faltwandungsring 3 is slightly raised after unlocking the locking means and the front side wall 6 by folding the lateral side walls 7, 8 is moved to the rear side wall 5 to the rear. The folded rest position of the Faltwandungsrings 3 can be seen with reference to FIG. 13. The rear side wall 5 remains connected to the pallet base 2 via two flexible retaining straps 16, 19. The two straps 16, 19 are, as can be seen with reference to FIGS. 1, 7 and 8, 9, each with a band end 16 on the inside of the rear side wall 5 is fixed. An opposite band end 18 of each band 19 is firmly connected to the pallet base in the region of an inner side of the edge region of the pallet base 2. The Faltwandungsring 3, as can be seen with reference to FIGS. 13 to 16, are folded from the folded rest position shown in FIG. 13 forward on the surface of the pallet base 2. This is done together with the pallet cover 4. This will be discussed in more detail below.

The Faltwandungsring 3 is in the illustrated embodiment single-walled made of a suitable plastic material. The Faltwandungsring 3 can also be made in the same way as a double-walled plastic component in a twin-sheet process. Corner areas and fold lines remain flexible in the same way, as is the case with a single-shell and single-walled Faltwandungsring 3.

The pallet cover 4 can be placed on the folding wall ring 3 in the region of its upper edge. The pallet cover 4 is designed in the same way as a double-walled plastic component as the pallet 2. Advantageously, the pallet cover 4 is also made in twin-sheet design. Advantageously, the pallet cover 4 and the pallet base 2 made of the same plastic material. Also, the Faltwandungsring 3 may consist of the same thermoformable plastic material. The pallet lid 4 has in the region of its underside both a substantially planar inner side 12 and a circumferential edge region 13. Between the inner side 12 and the edge region 13, a circumferential plug-in channel is provided, which is set up on an upper edge contour of the Faltwandungsrings 3 in the Functional position is adjusted to allow a safe placement and plugging the pallet cover 4 on the Faltwandungsring 3.

On the pallet cover 4, two mutually parallel, flexible connecting strands 14 are provided in the region of its underside, which are designed as straps. Each flexible connecting strand 14 is fastened with its opposite strand ends to the underside of the pallet lid 4. Here, the two flexible connecting strands 14 extend in the closed position of the pallet cover 4 in an erected functional position of the Faltwandungsrings 3 parallel to the upper edge regions of the lateral side walls 7, 8. The belts designed as connecting strands 14 point between their attached to the underside of the pallet cover 4 strand ends a length which is greater than the corresponding extent of the inner side 12 of the pallet lid 4, so that each connecting strand 14 loosely hangs down in the manner of a loop in the horizontal direction of the pallet lid 4. The strand ends of each connecting strand 14 are connected by means of mechanical fastening means fixed to the underside of the pallet lid 4. Advantageously, the strand ends of each connecting strand 14 are fastened on the inside to corresponding sections of the edge region 13 of the pallet lid 4. Alternatively, it is possible to integrate each connecting strand 14 as a closed, circumferential ring in the manufacture of the pallet cover 4 already, in which case the hanging down free strand strand of each connecting strand 14 in the same way loosely as a loop hanging down, as shown in Fig. 1st is shown. Each connecting strand 14 is guided through in each case a guide eye 15 in the form of a passage slot at an upper edge of the rear side wall 5. The two slot-shaped guide eyes 15 are aligned with their longitudinal extent parallel to an upper edge of the side wall 5 and positioned at a small distance below the upper edge. A height of each slot-shaped guide eye 15 is designed such that the associated, designed as a webbing connecting strand can pass through the respective guide eye 15 against rotation. The two guide eyes 15 are integrally integrated in the side wall 5 by forming simple slot-shaped passages in the sheet material of the side wall 5. Front and rear strand ends of the respective connecting strand 14 are fastened via mechanical fastening means 17 on the underside of the pallet cover 4, as can be seen with reference to FIGS. 3, 5, 6, 12, 18.

The pallet cover 4 is therefore connected via the connecting strands 14 and the guide eyes 15 captive with the rear side wall 5 of the Faltwandungsrings 3. The rear side wall 5 in turn is at its lower edge region, ie opposite to the guide eyelets 15, by means of a respective retaining strap 19 play permanently with the Pallet floor 2 connected. For this purpose, the two straps 16, 19 are flexible and designed with a length that allow lifting and pivoting of the rear side wall 5.

In order to transfer the pallet cover 4 from its closed position according to FIGS. 4 and 8 into an open position according to FIG. 10, the pallet cover 4 is released upward from the edge contour of the folding wall ring 3 and raised in a simple manner in the region of the front side wall 6 upwards and pans. Due to the weight of the pallet lid 4, this slides along the upper edge of the rear side wall 5, whereby inevitably the connecting strands 14 slide down through the guide eyes 15. The connecting strands 14 with their strand ends also define corresponding end stops for the pallet lid 4, as can be seen from FIGS. 10 and 11. The pallet cover 4 remains connected via the connecting strands 14, which are passed through the guide eyelets 15, connected to the rear side wall 5, wherein the opening position of the pallet cover 4 according to FIG. 10 and 1 1, 12 sets. In this open position, the Faltwandungsring 3 can now be folded by the Faltwandungsring 3 is raised at least slightly in the region of the front side wall 6 upwards and at the same time the lateral side walls 7, 8 are folded inwards. Subsequently, the front side wall 6 can be moved so far back until the corresponding side walls 5 to 8 abut each other flat on block (see Fig. 13). The folded Faltwandungsring 3 can now be pivoted forward together with the pallet cover 4 and consequently folded down, the Faltwandungsring 3 remains connected via the engaging on the rear side wall 5 retaining straps 16, 19 with the pallet base 2 (see FIGS. 7 and 19 ). The pallet cover 4 is inevitably taken along with the pivoting of the Faltwandungsrings 3, since the pallet cover 4 is permanently connected via the connecting strands 14 with the Faltwandungsring 3. The corresponding lateral edge regions of the pallet cover 4 and of the pallet base 2 are matched to one another in such a way that they lie flush against one another in the closed rest position of the pallet container according to FIGS. 15, 16, 19.

Reopening takes place in the reverse sequence of movements by raising the pallet lid 4. The pallet cover 4 takes over the connecting strands 14 inevitably the Faltwandungsring 3 with up. Once the Faltwandungsring 3 has reached the position shown in FIG. 13 again, the front side wall 6 can be pulled forward, whereby the Faltwandungsring 3 can dip back into the bottom groove of the pallet base 2 total. After appropriate locking of the folding wall ring 3 in the area of the pallet base 2, the pallet cover 4 can be pulled up again in a simple manner and can be moved forwards. be pivoted until it is transferred via the intermediate positions shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 again in its closed position shown in FIGS. 4 and 8.

The pallet container according to FIGS. 20 to 22 essentially corresponds to the pallet container 1, as illustrated and described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 18. Functionally identical components are provided with the same reference numerals with the addition of the letter a. Reference is therefore made to FIGS. 20 to 22 in addition to the description of FIGS. 1 to 18. The differences between the pallet container according to FIGS. 20 to 22 will be discussed below.

To connect the Faltwandungsringes 3a, which is shown only partially and schematically with reference to FIGS. 20 to 22, the Faltwandungsring 3a 3a in the region of at least one side wall at least one passage slot 22 which just above a lower edge region of the side wall of the Faltwandungsringes 3a is provided and extends parallel to the lower edge region of the side wall of the Faltwandungsringes 3a. Only one passage slot 22 is shown with reference to FIGS. 20 to 22. However, the side wall of the Faltwandungsringes 3a has at least two such passage slots 22, which are spaced along the edge region to each other. Each passage slot 22 is intended to bind the Faltwandungsring 3a on the pallet base 2a captive. For this purpose, a holding band 21 is passed through each passage slot 22, which is designed to be flexible and held by means of a fastening element 23 in the form of a fastening screw on the pallet base 2 a.

As can be seen with reference to FIG. 21, the retaining strap 21 has a retaining eye 24 at an end region located in the mounted position. At the other, in the assembled state, the outer end region, the holding band 21 is provided with a securing portion 26 in the form of a welt. For this purpose, the tether 21 forms a loop in the end region, in which a dimensionally stable Kederbolzen 25 is held. The Kederbolzen 25 is cylindrical in the illustrated embodiment. A thickness of the holding band 21 is narrower than a width of the passage slot 22. A thickness of the holding band 21, as well as a thickness of the holding lug 24, has a thickness increased by at least a factor of 2 are smaller than a height of the passage slot 22, so that the tether 21 can be threaded with the end portion carrying the tether 24 from the outside through the passage slot 22 until the thickened securing portion 26 rests against the edge region of the passage slot 22 from the outside. It can also be seen from FIGS. 20 to 22 that the width of the holding strap 21, starting from the thickened securing section 26, approaches the holding eye 24 symmetrically and steadily tapered. The holding lug 24 reinforces the inner end region of the holding band 21, since the holding lug 24 is firmly integrated into the holding band 21.

The pallet base 2a is provided with a recess in which a receptacle 27 is provided, into which a fastening screw 23 is screwed, which penetrates the retaining eye 24. To mount the tether 21, first the tether 21 as shown in FIG. 21 is inserted from the outside with its retaining eye 24 through the passage slot 22 of the Faltwandungsringes 3a and pulled inwards until the securing portion 26 rests outside at the edge region of the passage slot 22. Subsequently, the fastening screw 23 is passed from above through the holding eye 24 and screwed into the receptacle 27 of the pallet base 2a. A head of the fastening screw 23 is matched to the retaining lug 24 such that the head of the fastening screw 23 secures the retaining lug 24 in a form-fitting manner in the region of the receptacle 27 on the pallet base 2 a. For disassembly, the fastening screw 23 is easily removable. Subsequently, the Faltwandungsring 3a removed and the tether 21 are pulled out of the passage slot 22.
