Definitions

  • the present description refers, as its title indicates, to a nestable plastic pallet, with removable runners and/or legs, of the type used as a support for the transportation of goods, characterised in that it comprises several zones on the upper face of the load platform, provided with a tongue and groove joint with the runners, allowing one pallet to be placed on top of another with a precise fit, with end-pieces with clip attachment and blocks in elastomer material.
  • the invention relates to the field of plastic pallets with removable runners and/or legs.
  • the nestable plastic pallet that is the object of this invention has been envisaged, which consists of a load platform and a plurality of removable runners in which the upper face of the load platform comprises several zones that coincide in their number and position with the runners, provided with a plurality of projections that coincide with a plurality of cavities located on the lower face of the runners, forming a tongue and groove joint that allows one pallet to be placed on top of another, fitting precisely, without them moving.
  • the shape, dimensions and distribution of the projections and cavities is variable and customisable for each customer.
  • the zones endowed with a plurality of projections may form an integral part of the load platform or they may be separate pieces firmly attached by clipping, gluing or welding, or a combination thereof.
  • these zones with a plurality of projections may be made of the same material as the load platform or of other materials, such as for example, totally or partially of elastomer material.
  • This invention is applicable to plastic pallets with removable runners, both those formed by one or by several separate or fusible parts.
  • the pallet can incorporate metal reinforcement elements inserted in cavities in the load platform, which are closed off by means of end-pieces, having on the inner face of their main body a plurality of tabs that coincide in number, position and dimensions, with clipping housings positioned around the mouths of the housing of the metal reinforcement elements.
  • they comprise, on the inner face of their main body, a protruding element, of the appropriate shape and dimensions for insertion in the hollow interior of the metal reinforcement elements, provided with a plurality of pressure-attachment peripheral tabs.
  • the end-pieces can be personalised according to customers' preferences, by engraving, serigraphy, colour or injection marks, for easy identification of their pallets or to facilitate their classification.
  • a plurality of elastomer material blocks located in housings or hollows foreseen in the zones with projections, in such a way that they protrude slightly above them and protrude underneath the lower surface of the load platform.
  • This nestable plastic pallet presented affords numerous advantages over the pallets that are currently available, the most important of these being that the tongue and groove joint means that one pallet can be placed on top of another, with a precise fit, without them moving in any direction, providing perfect stacking and ensuring their stability during the transportation of piles of empty pallets. Another important advantage is that, since the composition of this piece incorporates an elastomer component, an additional non-slip effect is achieved that prevents the load from moving.
  • the tongue and groove joint can be carried out separately, it can be different for each customer, enabling the pallets to be personalised so that those belonging to one customer do not fit those of another customer, it also being possible to include, as the tongue and groove joint, the embossed logo of the company that acquires the pallets.
  • Another noteworthy additional advantage is that, instead of the closing end-pieces of the metal reinforcement elements just being pressed on, they are clipped to the platform. This prevents them accidentally slipping out and, additionally, as this is a larger piece, it can be customised with the colour or logo of the company, or according to the different loads. This affords an additional advantage as it allows for easy identification of one or another pallet that may not be compatible, given that in some cases mistakes can lead to problems when handling loads.
  • blocks in elastomer material are envisaged on the surface of the platform to prevent the load from moving on the top part, and on the lower part of the board to prevent the pallets themselves from sliding when they are transported with forklifts or pallet jacks.
  • a nestable plastic pallet is shown, formed by a load platform (1) and a plurality of removable longitudinal and/or transverse runners (2), interconnected by means of the corresponding removable legs, and attachable to the lower face of the load platform (1) to facilitate maintenance and repair, in which the upper face of the load platform (1) comprises several zones (3) of an essentially rectangular configuration, coinciding in number and position with the runners (2), endowed with a plurality of projections (4) of a shape, number and distribution coinciding with a plurality of cavities (5) located on the lower face of the runners (2), forming a tongue and groove joint.
  • This tongue and groove joint allows one pallet to be placed on top of another, fitting together precisely, without them moving.
  • the shape, sizes and distribution of the projections (4) and cavities (5) are variable and customisable for each customer, thereby being able to ensure that the pallets are only stackable for that same customer.
  • the zones (3) of an essentially rectangular configuration, endowed with a plurality of projections (4) can form an integral part of the load platform (1), obtained by a single injection process or they can be in different materials, obtained by means of a second injection or overinjection.
  • Another alternative embodiment is also envisaged, as detailed in figure -2-, in which the zones (3) of an essentially rectangular configuration, endowed with a plurality of projections (4) are separate pieces, firmly attached to the load platform (1) in housings (8) by means of an attachment chosen from the group formed by clipping, gluing, welding or a combination thereof.
  • zones (3) of an essentially rectangular configuration are not in the same material as the load platform (1), it is envisaged that preferably they will be totally or partially in elastomer material.
  • FIGS 4 , 5 , 11 and 12 show variants of the invention in which the runners are attachable to the lower face of the load platform (1), being replaceable. It is also envisaged that the runners may be, in turn, formed by replaceable separate or fusible parts.
  • the shape, dimensions and distribution of the projections (4) and cavities (5) are variable and customisable for each customer.
  • the pallet can incorporate metal reinforcement elements (6) inserted in cavities made in the load platform (1), the said cavities being closed off by means of end-pieces (7) such as those shown in figure -6- that comprise, on the inner face of their main body (9) a plurality of tabs (10) coinciding in number, position and dimensions with clipping housings (8) positioned around the mouths of the housing of the metal reinforcement elements (6).
  • end-pieces (7) such as those shown in figure -6- that comprise, on the inner face of their main body (9) a plurality of tabs (10) coinciding in number, position and dimensions with clipping housings (8) positioned around the mouths of the housing of the metal reinforcement elements (6).
  • they comprise, on the inner face of their main body (9), a protruding element (11), of the appropriate shape and dimensions for insertion in the hollow interior of the metal reinforcement elements (6), provided with a plurality of pressure-attachment peripheral tabs (12).
  • the end-pieces (7) may be of a different colour to that of the load platform (1) and comprise, on the outer face of their main body (9), differentiating means chosen from the group formed by engraving, serigraphy, colour or injection marks, enabling personalisation according to customers' preferences for easy identification of their pallets or to facilitate their classification.
  • a plurality of blocks (13) in elastomer material may be used to prevent the load from moving, being located in housings or hollows envisaged in the zones (3) in such a way that they protrude slightly above the projections (4) of the zones (3), and protrude underneath the lower surface of the load platform (1). By protruding underneath the lower surface of the load platform (1) they prevent the pallets from sliding when they are transported with forklifts or pallet jacks.
  • FIG. -7- These blocks (13) in elastomer material are shown in figure -7- and are formed as a top platform (14), of a variable shape, endowed with projections (15) coinciding in shape, dimensions and distribution with the projections (4) of the zones (3), and a cylindrical bottom closure (16) of a smaller size, interconnected with a body (17) in a solid tapered shape or formed by fins.
