Description

The present invention relates to a transport system for transporting goods, preferably bagged goods, by means of industrial trucks, such as. A forklift or pallet truck, and / or for storing these goods, with a pallet on top of a transport surface for the goods and having their underside spaced supporting feet or runners. Furthermore, the invention also relates to a pallet and a plate element for such a transport system.

For example, a plurality of loosely juxtaposed and stacked bags, e.g. several layers of 5x25 kg sacks of thin PP film, understood.

For the horizontal transport of stackable goods usually transport pallets are used, which are lifted by means of material handling equipment, especially forklifts, transported and placed elsewhere again. However, such transport pallets have various disadvantages. For example, the standardized Europool pallets have a height of 144 mm, which must be calculated at a given maximum height of the stack of goods including the pallet of, for example, 2000 mm and at the expense of the quantity of goods. Furthermore, the pallets also have a high dead weight, which must be taken into account in the loading capacity of the respective means of transport, such as a truck, and therefore also less goods can be transported. Although standard pallets always have a flat or flat loading surface, straight wooden pallets have the disadvantage that wood splinters, nails or staples can rupture the bags or bag casings. In addition, wooden pallets usually do not meet the necessary hygiene requirements, eg for the transport of food. In addition, wooden pallets break very easily and sometimes have to be replaced after the first use. A new range of wood not only brings costs, but also at the expense of the environment. Furthermore take usual (Europool) pallets, whether made of wood, plastic or metal, when returning without goods a considerable amount of space.

Therefore, in some cases it has gone over to make the pallets so that they are, for example, stackable and nestable for the return transport, as it is, for example, in the WO 2013/013842 A1 is disclosed. Such a pallet here corresponds more to a transport plate, which is shaped in such a way that it has at least two spaced-apart bulges for receiving forklift tines. As a result, the pallet down is not flat and has at least Stützfußartige sections on which the palette is based on a substrate. However, if now two such pallets are stacked with baggage thereon, sit the "support feet" of the upper range on the top level of the underlying bagged goods. However, the bagged product does not form a flat and dimensionally stable surface. As a result of this, due to the weight of the bagged goods stacked on the upper pallet, the contour of the support feet pushes into the bags on the underlying pallet and the contour of the rest of the pallet clings to the surface thereof. In addition, such intrinsically thin pallets can also bend more easily than ordinary pallets of massive design. As a result, the pallet is no longer possible to maintain a horizontal, approximately flat surface and it can not forklift tines retract into the recesses provided at the bottom of the pallet, without damaging the bags.

Such a pallet can be combined with a transport platform which enhances the stability of the pallet. For this purpose, the transport platform is arranged below the pallet. Thus, the transport platform can also be used to space the pallet from a substrate. The transport platform also has corridors that are recessed for insertion of forklift tines. However, such a transport platform again requires additional space, which is again at the expense of the maximum transportable goods.

Against this background, the object of the present invention is to provide a transport system, which stacking and "unstacking", ie, deriving a stacked on another transport system transport system, several, preferably with bagged goods, loaded transport systems by means of a truck, especially one Forklift, allows.

This object is achieved with respect to the transport system with the features of claim 1, in terms of the range with the features of claim 5 and in terms of the plate member with the features of claim 11.

Advantageous embodiments are the subject of the dependent claims and are explained below.

In the transport system according to the invention is a combination of a pallet and at least one plate member, wherein the plate member on the underside of the pallet in such, in particular detachably fastened, that this is a receptacle for forks of the truck and / or others on the underside of the pallet trained recesses, preferably flush, spans or covers at least at selected locations. As a result, for the stacking of several loaded with goods pallets on the one hand on the underside of the plate provided with the pallet element produces a flat bearing surface and on the other between the plate member and the pallet ensures the possibility of retracting forks, even if several loaded transport system stacked are. The at least one plate element also ensures that surface on which rests the pallet is increased and thus the surface load is reduced. Furthermore, the at least one plate element can also increase the flexural rigidity of the pallet.

The plate element is an overall flat and flat component of substantially constant thickness.

In particular, the plate member by means of a positive connection to the pallet can be fastened, which in turn is preferably designed in the manner of a clip, snap or snap connection. Such a positive connection is easy to produce and also simple, preferably even without tools, solvable to disassemble the plate member of the pallet can. Alternatively, the connection between the pallet and the plate element may also be non-positively, for example. In the form of a screw connection may be formed.

In particular, it is possible that the clips, snap or locking connection is formed by means of latching in spring tongues pins or pins or by engaging in conical openings formed snap or snap lugs.

Another possible embodiment of the transport system provides that a plurality of plate elements are fastened to the pallet, wherein these, preferably flush, are arranged to each other so that they form a flat surface with the underside of the pallet. This makes it possible that the same plate elements can be used for differently shaped pallets.

The object mentioned above is achieved with respect to the pallet by the features of claim 5. The pallet according to the invention in this case has on its upper side a transport surface for the goods and on its underside spaced supporting feet or skids. According to the invention, the pallet further comprises fastening sections, which are in particular formed integrally with the pallet, by means of which at least one plate element on the underside of the pallet, in particular detachably fastened, that the at least one plate member a receptacle for forks of the truck and / or others formed on the underside of the pallet recesses, preferably flush, spans or covers.

The attachment portions on the pallet allow the above-mentioned connection with the plate member and thus ensure that the recesses for the forks are also present in the stacked state or kept open.

Possible embodiments of the fastening sections are in this case spring tongues or frustoconical projections or conical openings. These form together with matching or complementarily formed mounting portions on the plate member from a preferably positive and detachable connection.

It has proved to be advantageous if the fastening sections are arranged on the underside, preferably in the region of the support feet, of the pallet. As a result, the plate element in the region of the underside of the pallet can be attached and the mounting portions pose no risk of damage to the goods to be transported, since the product usually does not sink to a bottom surface of the support legs.

In order to be able to ensure the nestability of empty pallets, the support feet each have employed side surfaces and a bottom surface. The employed side surfaces make it possible for the empty pallets to nest into each other and thus require significantly less storage space than if they are stacked on top of each other.

To attach the plate member to the pallet, it is advantageous if the bottom surface for this purpose has a depression or a recess on the underside. By such a return, the plate member for a lighter positioning can be positioned and on the other hand, allows such a return by attaching the plate member, the total height of the pallet with the plate member relative to the total height of the pallet without the plate member. As a result, it is irrelevant for the maximum transport height whether a plate element is attached to the pallet or not.

For stacking or nesting, it is advantageous if the pallet has a peripheral stacking edge. This forms for the stacking or nesting a limitation and thus ensures that two nested or nested palettes at any time easily be detached from each other again. Such an edge can also contribute to improving the stability of the pallet and is, for example, angled downwards. To stiffen the edge of this can also have in the middle of a central web, which provides a plurality of over the entire circumference, preferably evenly distributed, transverse struts for additional stiffening of the peripheral stack edge.

To improve the stability of the pallet and in particular the transport surface, the transport surface stability-enhancing geometries, such as. have integral / integrally formed, preferably square / cassette-like recesses. These reinforcing geometries are dimensioned so that the goods are not damaged during transport through these geometries. In particular, during the transport of bagged goods such recesses can also cause the position of the bagged goods on the transport surface quasi fixed or stabilized by the bagged material sinks when placed on the transport surface at least partially into the wells.

In order to be able to better clean the pallet, it advantageously has a plurality of small openings which can be arranged both on the transport surface, in particular in the stability-enhancing geometries designed as depressions, and in the bottom surfaces of the support legs. Through these openings, liquids, such as detergents or food juices, which would accumulate on or in the pallet, drain.

To reduce the weight of the pallet, this can, for example, be made of plastic. In addition to saving weight, pallets made of plastic, for example PE (polyethylene) or PP (polypropylene), are also suitable for transporting food. The pallets can be produced here, for example, by means of an injection molding process. It is advantageous here if the pallet is "shaped in itself". This means that the entire pallet or the basic structure of the pallet has a substantially uniform or constant wall thickness and introduced indentations on, for example, an upper side lead to projections on the underside. Alternatively, the pallet can also be made by other methods, such as deep drawing.

The pallet is preferably substantially rectangular, that is, the pallet has two opposite short side edges and two opposite long side edges, and is substantially flat on its underside.

The object mentioned above is achieved with respect to the plate member by the features of claim 11. According to the invention, the plate element, in particular integrally formed with the plate member, mounting portions, by means of which the plate member so on a bottom of a pallet, preferably a pallet as described above, in particular releasably fastened, that the plate member is a receptacle for forks of the truck and / or others on the bottom the range formed recesses, preferably flush, spans or covers. The top of the plate member serves for attachment to the pallet and serves as the underside of the plate member as a support surface. Thus, over the plate member, the (plane) bearing surface of the pallet can be increased and the surface load on the ground or goods of a pallet stacked below can be reduced.

Possible embodiments for such fastening sections are, for example, the design as a pin or pin with at least one projection extending in the radial direction. These can interact with the corresponding or complementarily formed attachment portions of the pallet and in this case form a positive and detachable connection.

In order to enable a simple but releasable but stable connection, the projection is advantageously designed as a hook-like snap or latching nose or alternatively as a completely circumferential projection.

Furthermore, the plate element may have reinforcing geometries and / or openings. The reinforcing geometries increase the stability of the plate member while the openings serve to save material. These are in this case dimensioned such that when retracting the forks in the recesses provided in the region of the openings to no damage to the underlying bagged goods.

Here, the reinforcing geometries may be formed as a grid-like arranged, a checkerboard or cassette pattern forming reinforcing ribs. The reinforcing ribs may have either a constant height or a varying height.

Also to save material, it is advantageous if the plate element has a cross or grid-like overall geometry. With such a geometry, in particular the areas of support feet can be recessed and the area of the plate element can be limited almost exclusively to the area of the recesses to be covered or to be covered.

In order to keep the weight of the plate element as low as possible, this is advantageously made of plastic, such as. PE or PP formed. Thus, the plate element meets the hygiene requirements for the transport of food. So that no liquids accumulate on the plate element, openings can also be provided in the plate element, preferably within the cassette-like arranged reinforcing ribs, which allow a drainage of liquids.

A possible embodiment of the plate element provides that this has at least one axis symmetry, whereby the positioning of the plate member is simplified on the pallet. In addition, the plate element in this axis of symmetry can have a film hinge, whereby it can be halved for the individual transport in size and thus easier (and space-saving) to stow.

It should be noted that the plate member is formed flat, quasi-sheet-like, with a substantially constant thickness, and in particular on its underside, i.e., on the side facing away from the pallet, is flat. Due to its small thickness, the plate member may also be referred to as thin-walled.

The aforementioned aspects solve both individually and in any combination of the task underlying the invention and should therefore be claimable individually or in any combination within the scope of this invention.

Detailed description of preferred embodiments

Fig. 1 shows a perspective view of a transport system 1, which is suitable for transporting goods, in particular bagged goods. The transport system 1 comprises a pallet 2 and a plate element 3 (see Fig. 2 ), which is fastened to the pallet 2 from below. Palette 2 is in here illustrated embodiment is rectangular and thus has two opposite long side edges 4 and two opposite short side edges 5, wherein a side view of the long side edge 4 in Fig. 5 is shown. For transporting the goods, the pallet 2 has a transport surface 6. The molded-in pallet 2 has on the underside a plurality of support surfaces or support feet 7, which serve for placing or parking the pallet 2 on a substrate.

The pallet 2 is shaped in itself, that is, its basic structure is integrally formed to have a substantially constant wall thickness. As a result, the support legs 7 are hollow and open towards the transport surface 6. The transition from the transport surface 6 to the support legs 7 is rounded designed to avoid damage to the goods to be transported by sharp edges and / or sharp corners.

In addition, it can be seen that the support feet have 7 employees side surfaces 9 (see also FIGS. 7 to 9 ). This allows a so-called nesting of several empty pallets 2.

Furthermore, the pallet 2 has a peripheral edge 10, which can also be referred to as a stack edge and provides for improved rigidity of the pallet 2. Such a configuration of the pallet 2 allows nesting or nesting of several empty pallets 2. In this case, the edge 10 limits the nest depth of the pallets 2 when nesting the pallets 2. The pallet 2 is made of plastic, for example by an injection molding or a deep drawing process ,

In order to further improve the stability or rigidity of the pallet 2, the transport surface 6 has a plurality of depressions 11, which in the embodiment shown here have different dimensions but are all substantially rectangular.

To allow drainage of liquids, the pallet 2 has a plurality of small openings 19, for example. In the wells 11 and in bottom surfaces 32 of Support feet 7 are formed. In the embodiment shown here, the openings 19 are formed round, but they can also be formed in any other shape, as long as they are dimensioned so that liquids can drain well without the stability of the pallet 2 is impaired.

Fixing portions 12 of the pallet 2 and fixing portions 13 of the plate member 3, on the shape thereof with reference to the FIGS. 6 to 9 will be discussed in more detail, form fixing mechanisms 21, which are arranged in the region of the support legs 7.

Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 show the transport system 1 from below in the assembled state, ie, the plate member 3 is attached to the pallet 2, wherein Fig. 2 represents a perspective view while Fig. 3 shows a bottom view. These figures illustrate that the plate element 3 has a plurality of recesses 15, which form a region into which the support legs 7 of the pallet 2 protrude, whereby the plate element 3 has an overall lattice or cross-type structure, which in particular also in FIG Fig. 6 easy to recognize. The plate element 3 will be discussed in more detail later.

The support legs 7 are spaced from each other so that they form between them receptacles 8 for forks of a truck. In the exemplary embodiments shown here, such receptacles 8 extend both between the long side edges 4 and between the short side edges 5. Thus, the transport system 1 can be picked up from all four sides of the truck by means of the forks, transported and set down again. Thereby, the orientation of the transport system 1, e.g. when transporting or storing the goods, not decisive.

In addition, these views of the transport system 1 from below show that the edge 10 is curved from the transport surface 6 downwardly open and has a central web 33, the edge 10 by means of several, arranged over the entire circumference of the pallet 2 cross struts 34 addition stiffened or stabilized.

In Fig. 4 the support legs 7 are shown from below. In this figure, it can be seen that the bottom surfaces 32 of the support legs 7 have depressions or recesses 14 which extend over a partial region or the entire underside of the bottom surfaces 32. In these recesses 14, the plate member 3 is located on the support legs 7 (see Fig. 2 ) so that the height of the pallet 2 with and without the plate member 3 attached thereto is the same.

Fig. 5 shows the side view of the long side edge 4 of the transport system 1. This again shows the recesses 8, which are formed between the support legs 7 for receiving forks, and that these receptacles 8 are spanned on the underside of the pallet 2 of the plate member 3. Furthermore, it can be seen that the mounting of the plate element 3 on the underside of the pallet 2 leads to no change in the height of the pallet 2.

Fig. 6 shows the plate member 3 separately in perspective view. By the already mentioned recesses 15 and other openings 16, which are mainly used for material and weight saving, the plate member 3 is replaced by the lattice or cross-like structure.

The plate member 3 has a substantially constant thickness, which is so low, then the plate member 3 can be referred to as thin-walled or sheet-like. In order to improve the rigidity of this thin plate member 3, a majority of the surface constituting the plate member 3 is provided at its top with reinforcing ribs 17 forming a cassette pattern. Within these cassettes openings 18 are formed, which serve that liquids, for example. During cleaning, can run off and do not collect on the top of the plate member 3. The openings 18 are rectangular here, but this is only one possible embodiment of this. Alternatively, the openings 18 may be formed in any other shapes, as long as they are dimensioned so that liquids can drain well without the stability of the plate member 3 is impaired.

The plate element 3 further comprises the fastening sections 13 already mentioned above, which extend from the upper side of the plate element 3 in the direction of the pallet 2. This means that the plate member 3 is flat or flat on its underside and thus forms a flat bearing surface. The attachment portions 13 shown here correspond to a first exemplary embodiment and are formed as separate from the plate member 3 elements. For receiving or fastening the fastening portions 13 on the plate element 3, the plate member 3 provided for this purpose, here slit-like openings 20, in which engage the mounting portions 13, and are used. The geometry or shape of the openings 20 is in Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 good to see which show the plate member 3 from below.

The fixing portions 13 of the first embodiment are formed as a kind of pin 22 having a substantially cylindrical shape. The cylindrical shape results from four equally distributed over the circumference hook-like snap or latching lugs 23 which are connected to each other via a circumferential ring 24. This ring 24 is also used when inserting the mounting portions 13 in the plate member 3 as a kind of boundary or stop.

Fig. 7 shows a cross-sectional view of the transport system 1 in the first exemplary embodiment in the area of the support legs 7 of the pallet 2, which illustrates the attachment mechanism 21 of the first exemplary embodiment. The attachment mechanism 21 shown here is formed by a positive engagement between the attachment portions 12 of the pallet 2 and the attachment portions 13 of the plate member 3. The attachment portions 12 of the pallet 2 are substantially round or cylindrical and hollow in the first embodiment shown here, wherein the cavity is formed as a conically shaped opening 31. This means that the cavity is designed to taper slightly upwards.

To form the positive connection, the snap lugs 23 of the attachment portions 13 of the plate member 3 are formed by the conical Openings 31 guided or pushed. In this case, the conical shape of the cavity facilitates the guiding of the fastening sections 13 in the fastening sections 12. The snap tabs 23 are elastically deformed radially inwards, whereby a tension is generated in the snap tabs 23. As soon as a hook-like end 35 of the snap-action nose 23 projects completely beyond an upper edge of the opening 35, the tension generated by the elastic deformation in the respective snap-in nose 23 ensures that it returns to its original position and thereby the hook-like ends 35 over the Edge of the attachment portion 12 engage. Characterized a positive connection is formed, which can be solved by the elastic displacement of the snap lugs 23 radially inward and pulling out the mounting portions 13 down again.

In addition, the geometry of the first exemplary embodiment of the fastening mechanism 21 shown here is selected so that, even if it would come into contact with the goods to be transported, there is no risk of damage since it is in the clipped-in state (ie when the form-fit is formed). has no sharp edges or corners.

The FIGS. 8th and 9 show a second exemplary embodiment of the transport system 1, which differs from the in the FIGS. 1 to 7 The first exemplary embodiment shown differs only in the configuration of the attachment mechanism 21. This shows Fig. 8 a cross-sectional view of the transport system 1 in the second embodiment in the region of the support legs 7 in an assembled state, whereas Fig. 9 this cross-sectional view before assembly shows.

In the second embodiment, the fixing portions 12 of the pallet 2 are formed as spring tongues 25, whose free end is chamfered or provided with a chamfer. The attachment portions 13 of the plate member 3 are formed anvil-like and can also be referred to as a pin or pin 26. The pins 26 of the second embodiment are integrally formed with the plate member 3 and project from the top of the plate member 3 toward the pallet 2.

As a result, the underside of the plate element 3 is also flat in this embodiment and forms a flat bearing surface.

The fixing portions 12 of the pallet 2 in the second embodiment are, as already mentioned above, designed as spring tongues 25 which are received in a border 27. Here, the border 27 in an extension direction of the spring tongue 25 is longer than the spring tongue 25 itself and thus forms an opening 28, in which the anvil-like pin 26 is inserted. The opening 28 is in this case dimensioned so that the total length of the border 27 is slightly shorter than the sum of the length of the spring tongue 25 and the length of the pin 26 (in the extension direction of the spring tongue 25). Thus, when inserting or inserting or inserting the pin 26 in the opening 28 to an elastic deformation of the spring tongue 25, since the free (beveled or beveled) end comes into contact with the pin 26.

Due to the anvil-like shape of the pin 26, this has a head portion 29 and a foot portion 30, wherein the foot portion 30 is narrower than the head portion 29. That means that the head portion 29 protrudes with respect to the foot portion 30 over the entire circumference or protrudes. When inserting the pin 26 in the formed inside the border 27 opening 28, the spring tongue 25 comes into contact with the head portion 29 and is elastically deformed until the bias of the spring tongue 25 thus generated ensures that the spring tongue 25 below the head portion 29 ". jumps "and thus forms a form fit, via which the plate member 3 is fixed to the pallet 2.

It is to be noted that the attachment portions 12 of the pallet 2 are disposed on an upper surface of the bottom surfaces 32 of the support legs 7 in both of the first and second exemplary embodiments. As a result, the underside of the pallet 2 in both embodiments shown here is substantially planar (except for the areas of the recesses, which however can be neglected because of their very small depth), so that the pallet 2 is flat even without the plate element 3 attached thereto Having bearing surface.
