Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method according to claim 1 and an arrangement.
  • WO 2016/091570 A1 discloses a case that can be placed on another case with corresponding coupling structures by means of coupling structures.
  • This coupling may be either (i) vertically detachable and horizontally anti-slip, or (ii) vertically undetachable and horizontally slidable.
  • a suitcase with a body with four side walls and a bottom and an associated lid is known.
  • This case is used for transporting goods and has a body, a cover that is or can be connected to the body and coupling structures on the body and/or on the cover, with a receiving space between the body and the cover in a closed state for receiving goods to be transported is formed inaccessible from the outside. In an open state, the receiving space is accessible from the outside.
  • the coupling structures are designed so that the case and another case having coupling structures can be stacked on top of one another by means of the coupling structures in a selectively vertically detachable manner and secured against displacement, or can be coupled to one another in a vertically undetachable manner.
  • the system of DE 10 2014 118 452 is a closed system in principle: couplings are only possible between cases that are also system cases. This limits the variability of the system since it is incompatible with non-system bodies.
  • Cases can be made in any size, ie also with body heights of 1m and more.
  • feet can break on the bottom of the case because they cannot sustain the loads that have been brought in.
  • the bottom of the case then lies flat on the floor, so that Feet cannot break and the floor does not sag.
  • Tools for spraying the cases described are large due to the high body height, which is why the production of multiple tools should be avoided. However, a system connection is not possible for these cases.
  • retrofit device means in particular a one-component adapter body or a multi-component set of adapter bodies which is or are designed to be attached to a non-system body subsequently or as required in order to convert the non-system body equipped with the retrofit device into Giving full functionality to a system body.
  • a retrofit device can in particular be designed specifically for an existing non-system body in order to make it compatible with a system body for joint systemic use, in particular in order to make it positively coupled to a system body.
  • Coupled structures can be understood in particular as structural features of bodies that interact mechanically with one another and are designed for positive interaction for coupling the bodies with one another.
  • Such coupling structures can in particular be projections (e.g. lugs) and/or depressions (e.g. troughs), which can be designed inversely or correspondingly to one another in order to form a mechanical connection (e.g. by plugging, latching, locking, twisting or sliding).
  • Such a coupling can also be designed as a magnetic coupling, etc., as an alternative or in addition to a mechanical coupling.
  • a retrofit device can be made compact and lightweight as a strip profile, since a support structure (on which the actual coupling structures are attached or formed) of the retrofit device can be dimensioned very small and light in this way.
  • the retrofit device as one or more strip profiles, the spatial extent of the retrofit device can remain limited, for example, to those regions of the non-system body in which coupling structures must be provided to establish system capability.
  • the retrofit device can be provided in completely different exemplary embodiments.
  • Coupling strips or rails of a retrofit device can include or consist of plastic, in particular produced by injection molding. Locking slides at the front end of a coupling strip can be retrofitted.
  • An interior and/or an outside of a body of the retrofit device or of a non-system body can, for example, be provided with reinforcement elements on the bottom.
  • Coupling strips or rails can not only be fastened to the floor or the side walls, but can also, for example, engage with these reinforcement elements (e.g. screws can be placed through the coupling rails). It is possible to insert screws into the reinforcement elements through the bottom of the suitcase.
  • a case made without coupling structures on the bottom can also be provided with coupling structures later.
  • wheels could also be attached to the coupling structures in order to form a system-compatible trolley.
  • figure 1 shows a case 10 for an arrangement 110 (for example together with a receiving body 102 according to figure 7 or according to figure 11 and a retrofit device according to Figure 7 to Figure 10 and/or in accordance with Figure 5 and Figure 6 and/or in accordance with figure 11 ) according to an exemplary embodiment of the invention in one opening state.
  • figure 2 and figure 3 show the case 10 according to FIG figure 1 in a closed state.
  • figure 4 shows a suitcase 10 as shown in Figure 1 to Figure 3 shown coupled to another similar case 10'.
  • figure 4 Figure 12 thus shows an arrangement 99 showing the case 10 and the additional similar case 10' in a connected state.
  • the case 10 is used to transport cargo.
  • Such goods to be transported can be accommodated loosely or fastened or secured inside the case 10 and can in particular be accommodated in receiving containers (not shown), which in turn are safely accommodated inside the case 10 when the case 10 is in the closed state.
  • Examples of such transport goods are consumables (such as screws, nails, dowels, bulk goods or liquids) or tools (such as screwdrivers or bits), etc.
