Definitions

  • the invention relates to a modular system with several transport pallets and a construction created with such a modular system.
  • Transport pallets are widely used in the transport of piece goods. They are mainly made of wood, but can also be made of plastic and have a plate or several mutually parallel and interconnected slats that form a transport surface for goods to be transported. On an underside facing away from the transport surface, cuboid spacer blocks are arranged, between which gaps remain free, into which an industrial truck, such as a forklift, can engage in order to lift the pallet.
  • the spacer blocks can also be connected to one another by means of a further plate or further slats on the side which faces away from the plate or slats spanning the transport surface.
  • Such transport pallets can often carry transport goods of considerable weight and therefore bring with them a high level of stability from the outset.
  • Transport pallets whose spacer blocks are provided with first through-channels running in a first spatial direction and with second through-channels running transversely to these in a second spatial direction FR 2 311 721 A1 known, wherein the second feed-through channels run eccentrically through the outer surfaces of the spacer blocks.
  • transport pallets with first feed-through channels in their spacer blocks known. The through-channels are each used to connect transport pallets for the purpose of increasing their transport areas.
  • From the DE 20 2012 103 663 U1 a transport pallet is known whose spacer blocks are provided with locks.
  • FR 3 039 177 A1 known to build a wall from several transport pallets.
  • the invention is based on the idea of using the first feed-through channels in the spacer blocks to create a way of connecting a number of transport pallets that is as simple as it is stable, so that they can be joined together without great effort using connecting rods and other connecting elements. It can be sufficient if part of the spacer blocks is provided with the first feed-through channels. However, it is preferred that all spacer blocks are provided with a first feed-through channel for connecting rods, each extending parallel to the transport surface from one outer surface to the outer surface facing away from this, the first feed-through channels each extending in a first spatial direction.
  • the invention provides that at least some of the spacer blocks and preferably all spacer blocks are each provided with a second feed-through channel for connecting rods, which extends parallel to the transport surface from one outer surface to the outer surface facing away from the latter, with the second feed-through channels each running in a direction transverse to the first spatial direction extend second spatial direction, wherein the two spatial directions are preferably perpendicular to each other.
  • at least one spacer block is only provided with a first feed-through channel and at least one further spacer block is only provided with a second feed-through channel. All other combinations of spacer blocks with first and/or second feed-through channels are also conceivable.
  • first and the second feed-through channel do not intersect with a part of the spacer blocks or with all spacer blocks, so that two connecting rods can run transversely to one another through the same spacer block. It is also provided that the feed-through channels at least partially through the centers of the relevant outer surfaces of the Run spacer blocks and then intersect the first and the second passage channel of the relevant spacer blocks.
  • standard transport pallets can be converted into transport pallets for the modular system according to the invention by simply drilling the feed-through channels in the spacer blocks. Standard transport pallets made of wood with solid spacer blocks are particularly suitable for this, but transport pallets made of plastic or metal are also suitable.
  • connecting rods are used, which are pushed through the feed-through channels.
  • connecting elements are provided in order to connect connecting rods to one another, preferably releasably, in particular to connect connecting rods running parallel to one another in pairs.
  • the connecting elements can have through-openings for passing through the connecting rods and, for example, be connecting plates with at least two through-openings for passing through two connecting rods running parallel to one another, the through-openings then expediently also running parallel to one another.
  • structures can be built from a modular system consisting of several transport pallets, connecting rods and connecting elements, for example wall and/or floor elements, which can be used primarily in trade fair construction or elsewhere. Building-like constructions can also be erected from such wall or floor elements.
  • pieces of furniture can also be built with such a modular system. These wall elements, floor elements and pieces of furniture can have several identical or different transport pallets.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Baukastensystem mit mehreren Transportpaletten und eine mit einem solchen Baukastensystem erstellte Konstruktion.The invention relates to a modular system with several transport pallets and a construction created with such a modular system.

Transportpaletten finden breite Anwendung beim Transport von Stückgütern. Sie sind vorwiegend aus Holz gefertigt, können aber auch aus Kunststoff gefertigt sein und weisen eine Platte oder mehrere parallel zueinander verlaufende und miteinander verbundene Latten auf, die eine Transportfläche für Transportgut bilden. Auf einer der Transportfläche abgewandten Unterseite sind quaderförmige Abstandsklötze angeordnet, zwischen denen Zwischenräume freibleiben, in die ein Flurförderfahrzeug, wie beispielsweise ein Gabelstapler, eingreifen kann, um die Palette anzuheben. Die Abstandsklötze können zudem auf der Seite, die der die Transportfläche aufspannenden Platte bzw. Latten abgewandt ist, mittels einer weiteren Platte oder weiteren Latten miteinander verbunden sein. Solche Transportpaletten können oft Transportgut erheblichen Gewichts tragen und bringen daher von vornherein eine hohe Stabilität mit. Zudem besteht ein Bedürfnis nach einfach herstellbaren und günstigen Konstruktionen beispielsweise im Messebau. Transportpaletten, deren Abstandsklötze mit in einer ersten Raumrichtung verlaufenden ersten Durchführkanälen und mit quer zu diesen in einer zweiten Raumrichtung verlaufenden zweiten Durchführkanälen versehen sind, sind aus der FR 2 311 721 A1 bekannt, wobei die zweiten Durchführkanäle außermittig durch die Außenflächen der Abstandsklötze verlaufen. Auch aus der JP H07 291287 A sind Transportpaletten mit ersten Durchführkanälen in ihren Abstandsklötzen bekannt. Die Durchführkanäle dienen jeweils dem Verbinden von Transportpaletten zum Zwecke der Vergrößerung ihrer Transportflächen. Aus der DE 20 2012 103 663 U1 ist eine Transportpalette bekannt, deren Abstandsklötze mit Verriegelungen versehen sind. Schließlich ist es aus der FR 3 039 177 A1 bekannt, aus mehreren Transportpaletten eine Wand aufzubauen.Transport pallets are widely used in the transport of piece goods. They are mainly made of wood, but can also be made of plastic and have a plate or several mutually parallel and interconnected slats that form a transport surface for goods to be transported. On an underside facing away from the transport surface, cuboid spacer blocks are arranged, between which gaps remain free, into which an industrial truck, such as a forklift, can engage in order to lift the pallet. The spacer blocks can also be connected to one another by means of a further plate or further slats on the side which faces away from the plate or slats spanning the transport surface. Such transport pallets can often carry transport goods of considerable weight and therefore bring with them a high level of stability from the outset. In addition, there is a need for easy-to-manufacture and inexpensive constructions, for example in trade fair construction. Transport pallets whose spacer blocks are provided with first through-channels running in a first spatial direction and with second through-channels running transversely to these in a second spatial direction FR 2 311 721 A1 known, wherein the second feed-through channels run eccentrically through the outer surfaces of the spacer blocks. Also from the JP H07 291287 A are transport pallets with first feed-through channels in their spacer blocks known. The through-channels are each used to connect transport pallets for the purpose of increasing their transport areas. From the DE 20 2012 103 663 U1 a transport pallet is known whose spacer blocks are provided with locks. Finally it is from the FR 3 039 177 A1 known to build a wall from several transport pallets.

Es ist daher Aufgabe der Erfindung, ein Baukastensystem zu schaffen, bei dem Transportpaletten besser als Konstruktions- oder Bauelemente zusammengesetzt werden können.It is therefore the object of the invention to create a modular system in which transport pallets can be better assembled as structural or structural elements.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch ein Baukastensystem mit den Merkmalen des Anspruches 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der abhängigen Ansprüche.This object is achieved according to the invention by a modular system with the features of claim 1. Advantageous developments of the invention are the subject matter of the dependent claims.

Der Erfindung liegt der Gedanke zugrunde, mit den ersten Durchführkanälen in den Abstandsklötzen eine Möglichkeit zum ebenso einfachen wie stabilen Verbinden mehrerer Transportpaletten zu schaffen, so dass diese ohne großen Aufwand mittels Verbindungsstangen und weiteren Verbindungselementen zusammengefügt werden können. Dabei kann es ausreichen, wenn ein Teil der Abstandsklötze mit den ersten Durchführkanälen versehen ist. Es wird jedoch bevorzugt, dass alle Abstandsklötze mit einem ersten sich jeweils parallel zur Transportfläche von einer Außenfläche zur dieser abgewandten Außenfläche erstreckenden Durchführkanal für Verbindungsstangen versehen sind, wobei sich die ersten Durchführkanäle jeweils in einer ersten Raumrichtung erstrecken.The invention is based on the idea of using the first feed-through channels in the spacer blocks to create a way of connecting a number of transport pallets that is as simple as it is stable, so that they can be joined together without great effort using connecting rods and other connecting elements. It can be sufficient if part of the spacer blocks is provided with the first feed-through channels. However, it is preferred that all spacer blocks are provided with a first feed-through channel for connecting rods, each extending parallel to the transport surface from one outer surface to the outer surface facing away from this, the first feed-through channels each extending in a first spatial direction.

Die Erfindung sieht vor, dass zumindest ein Teil der Abstandsklötze und vorzugsweise alle Abstandsklötze jeweils mit einem zweiten sich parallel zur Transportfläche von einer Außenfläche zur dieser abgewandten Außenfläche erstreckenden Durchführkanal für Verbindungsstangen versehen ist, wobei sich die zweiten Durchführkanäle jeweils in einer zur ersten Raumrichtung quer verlaufenden zweiten Raumrichtung erstrecken, wobei die beiden Raumrichtungen vorzugsweise senkrecht aufeinander stehen. Zudem ist es auch möglich, dass mindestens ein Abstandsklotz nur mit einem ersten Durchführkanal und mindestens ein weiterer Abstandsklotz nur mit einem zweiten Durchführkanal versehen ist. Auch alle anderen Kombinationen von Abstandsklötzen mit ersten und/oder zweiten Durchführkanälen sind denkbar. Des Weiteren ist es möglich, dass sich bei einem Teil der Abstandsklötze oder bei allen Abstandsklötzen der erste und der zweite Durchführkanal nicht schneiden, so dass zwei Verbindungsstangen quer zueinander durch denselben Abstandsklotz verlaufen können. Es ist zudem vorgesehen, dass die Durchführkanäle zumindest teilweise jeweils durch die Mittelpunkte der betreffenden Außenflächen der Abstandsklötze verlaufen und sich der erste und der zweite Durchgangskanal der betreffenden Abstandsklötze dann schneiden. Auf die oben beschriebene Weise können Standard-Transportpaletten durch einfaches Bohren der Durchführkanäle in den Abstandsklötzen zu Transportpaletten für das erfindungsgemäße Baukastensystem umfunktioniert werden. Insbesondere eignen sich hierfür Standard-Transportpaletten aus Holz mit massiven Abstandsklötzen, aber auch Transportpaletten aus Kunststoff oder Metall.The invention provides that at least some of the spacer blocks and preferably all spacer blocks are each provided with a second feed-through channel for connecting rods, which extends parallel to the transport surface from one outer surface to the outer surface facing away from the latter, with the second feed-through channels each running in a direction transverse to the first spatial direction extend second spatial direction, wherein the two spatial directions are preferably perpendicular to each other. In addition, it is also possible that at least one spacer block is only provided with a first feed-through channel and at least one further spacer block is only provided with a second feed-through channel. All other combinations of spacer blocks with first and/or second feed-through channels are also conceivable. Furthermore, it is possible that the first and the second feed-through channel do not intersect with a part of the spacer blocks or with all spacer blocks, so that two connecting rods can run transversely to one another through the same spacer block. It is also provided that the feed-through channels at least partially through the centers of the relevant outer surfaces of the Run spacer blocks and then intersect the first and the second passage channel of the relevant spacer blocks. In the manner described above, standard transport pallets can be converted into transport pallets for the modular system according to the invention by simply drilling the feed-through channels in the spacer blocks. Standard transport pallets made of wood with solid spacer blocks are particularly suitable for this, but transport pallets made of plastic or metal are also suitable.

Zum Verbinden zweier Paletten werden Verbindungsstangen verwendet, die durch die Durchführkanäle durchgesteckt werden. Des Weiteren sind Verbindungselemente vorgesehen, um Verbindungsstangen vorzugsweise lösbar miteinander zu verbinden, insbesondere um parallel zueinander verlaufende Verbindungsstangen paarweise miteinander zu verbinden. Die Verbindungselemente können Durchführöffnungen zum Durchführen der Verbindungsstangen aufweisen und beispielsweise Verbindungsplatten sein mit mindestens zwei Durchführöffnungen zum Durchführen zweier parallel zueinander verlaufender Verbindungsstangen, wobei die Durchführöffnungen dann zweckmäßig ebenfalls parallel zueinander verlaufen. Auf diese Weise lassen sich aus einem Baukastensystem, das aus mehreren Transportpaletten, Verbindungsstangen und Verbindungselementen besteht, Konstruktionen errichten, beispielsweise Wand- und/oder Bodenelemente, die vor allem im Messebau oder auch anderweitig eingesetzt werden können. Aus solchen Wand- oder Bodenelementen können zudem gebäudeartige Konstruktionen errichtet werden. Schließlich können auch Möbelstücke mit einem solchen Baukastensystem errichtet werden. Diese Wandelemente, Bodenelemente und Möbelstücke können dabei mehrere identische oder unterschiedliche Transportpaletten aufweisen.To connect two pallets, connecting rods are used, which are pushed through the feed-through channels. Furthermore, connecting elements are provided in order to connect connecting rods to one another, preferably releasably, in particular to connect connecting rods running parallel to one another in pairs. The connecting elements can have through-openings for passing through the connecting rods and, for example, be connecting plates with at least two through-openings for passing through two connecting rods running parallel to one another, the through-openings then expediently also running parallel to one another. In this way, structures can be built from a modular system consisting of several transport pallets, connecting rods and connecting elements, for example wall and/or floor elements, which can be used primarily in trade fair construction or elsewhere. Building-like constructions can also be erected from such wall or floor elements. Finally, pieces of furniture can also be built with such a modular system. These wall elements, floor elements and pieces of furniture can have several identical or different transport pallets.

Im Folgenden wird die Erfindung anhand in der Zeichnung schematisch dargestellter Ausführungsbeispiele näher erläutert. Es zeigen:

In Figur 1a - f sind sechs verschiedene Formen von Transportpaletten aus Holz dargestellt. Figur 1a zeigt eine Transportpalette 10a, die eine durch sieben parallel zueinander verlaufende Latten 12 aufgespannte Transportfläche 14 aufweist. An einer der Transportfläche 14 abgewandten Unterseite sind sechs Abstandsklötze 16 angeordnet, deren der Transportfläche 14 abgewandte Bodenflächen wiederum mittels unterseitigen Latten 18 miteinander verbunden sind. Zwischen den Abstandsklötzen 16 befinden sich Zwischenräume 20, in die zum Anheben der Transportpalette 10a ein Gabelstapler eingreifen kann.In Figure 1a - f six different forms of wooden transport pallets are shown. Figure 1a shows a transport pallet 10a, which has a transport surface 14 spanned by seven slats 12 running parallel to one another. Arranged on an underside facing away from the transport surface 14 are six spacer blocks 16 whose bottom surfaces facing away from the transport surface 14 are in turn connected to one another by means of slats 18 on the underside. Between the spacer blocks 16 there are gaps 20 into which a forklift can engage to lift the transport pallet 10a.

Die Transportpalette 10b gemäß Figur 1b unterscheidet sich von der obigen Beschreibung nur darin, dass die Transportfläche 14 lediglich durch fünf parallel zueinander verlaufende Latten 12 gebildet wird, während die Transportpalette 10c gemäß Figur 1c nur drei solcher Latten 12 aufweist, welche in größerem Abstand zueinander angeordnet sind. Die Transportpalette 10d gemäß Figur 1d weist anstelle der Latten 12 eine die Transportfläche 14 aufspannende Platte 22 auf. Die Transportpalette 10e gemäß Figur 1e weist nur zwei die Transportfläche 14 aufspannende Latten 12 auf, die zudem im größtmöglichen Abstand zueinander angeordnet sind, so dass zwischen den Latten 12 eine Art Fensteröffnung 24 frei bleibt. Schließlich weisen die beiden in Figur 1f dargestellten Transportpaletten 10f ebenfalls jeweils nur zwei im Abstand parallel zueinander verlaufende Latten 12 auf und sind zudem jeweils zu einer Stirnseite hin offen, so dass sie von oben betrachtet U-förmig sind. Zwei solcher Transportpaletten 10f ergeben gegeneinander gelegt eine Art Türöffnung 26, wie in Figur 1f gezeigt.The transport pallet 10b according to Figure 1b differs from the above description only in that the transport surface 14 is formed only by five mutually parallel slats 12, while the transport pallet 10c according to FIG Figure 1c has only three such slats 12, which at a greater distance are arranged to each other. The transport pallet 10d according to Figure 1d has a plate 22 spanning the transport surface 14 instead of the slats 12 . The transport pallet 10e according to Figure 1e has only two slats 12 spanning the transport surface 14, which are also arranged at the greatest possible distance from one another, so that a type of window opening 24 remains free between the slats 12. Finally, the two point in Figure 1f The transport pallets 10f shown also have only two slats 12 running parallel to one another at a distance and are also open towards one end, so that they are U-shaped when viewed from above. Two such transport pallets 10f placed against each other result in a kind of door opening 26, as in Figure 1f shown.

Allen Transportpaletten 10a bis 10f gemein ist, dass die Abstandsklötze 16 jeweils mit ersten und zweiten Durchführkanälen 28, 30 versehen sind, wie im Detail für die Transportpalette 10a in Figur 2 gezeigt. Dabei erstrecken sich erste Durchführkanäle 28 durch jeden Abstandsklotz 16 von einer Außenfläche 32 zu der ihr abgewandten Außenfläche 32 in einer ersten Raumrichtung 34 parallel zur Transportfläche 14. Zweite Durchführkänale 30 erstrecken sich durch jeden der Abstandsklötze 16 von einer seiner Außenflächen 32 zu der dieser abgewandten Außenfläche 32 in einer orthogonal zur ersten Raumrichtung 34 verlaufenden zweiten Raumrichtung 36 parallel zur Transportfläche 14. Die Durchführkanäle 28, 30 verlaufen bei den hier gezeigten Ausführungsbeispielen dabei durch die Mittelpunkte der Außenflächen 32 und schneiden sich im Inneren der Abstandsklötze 16. Figur 2 zeigt dies im Detail an einem der Abstandsklötze 16.What all transport pallets 10a to 10f have in common is that the spacer blocks 16 are each provided with first and second feed-through channels 28, 30, as shown in detail for the transport pallet 10a in figure 2 shown. First feed-through channels 28 extend through each spacer block 16 from an outer surface 32 to the outer surface 32 facing away from it in a first spatial direction 34 parallel to the transport surface 14. Second feed-through channels 30 extend through each of the spacer blocks 16 from one of its outer surfaces 32 to the outer surface facing away from it 32 in a second spatial direction 36 running orthogonally to the first spatial direction 34 parallel to the transport surface 14. In the exemplary embodiments shown here, the feed-through channels 28, 30 run through the centers of the outer surfaces 32 and intersect inside the spacer blocks 16. figure 2 shows this in detail on one of the spacer blocks 16.

Die Durchführkanäle 28, 30 sind dazu gedacht, mehrere Transportpaletten 10a bis 10f mit einander zu verbinden. Zu diesem Zweck werden Verbindungsstangen 38 durch sie durchgeführt, die somit schon mehrere aneinander angrenzende Transportpaletten 10a bis 10f miteinander verbinden können. Des Weiteren sind Verbindungen möglich, bei denen zueinander parallel verlaufende Verbindungsstangen 38 mittels Verbindungselementen miteinander verbunden werden.The through-channels 28, 30 are intended to connect several transport pallets 10a to 10f with one another. For this purpose, connecting rods 38 are passed through them, which can thus already connect several adjoining transport pallets 10a to 10f to one another. Connections are also possible in which connecting rods 38 running parallel to one another are connected to one another by means of connecting elements.

Figur 3 zeigt ein Wandelement 40, das aus zwei im rechten Winkel zueinander angeordneten, aus jeweils einer Transportpalette 10a gebildeten Wänden besteht, wobei zwei parallel zueinander verlaufende Verbindungsstangen 38 an einem oberen und einen unteren Wandende durch jeweils eine Verbindungsplatte 42 miteinander verbunden sind, indem die Verbindungsplatten 42 jeweils zwei Durchführöffnungen 44 aufweisen, die zueinander parallel verlaufen und durch die die Verbindungsstangen 38 durchgeführt sind. An ihrem unteren Ende sind die Verbindungsstangen 38 zudem mittels Abschlussplatten 46 an den Verbindungsplatten 42 fixiert. figure 3 shows a wall element 40, which consists of two walls arranged at right angles to one another and each formed from a transport pallet 10a, wherein two connecting rods 38 running parallel to one another are connected to one another at an upper and a lower wall end by a respective connecting plate 42, in that the connecting plates 42 each have two through-openings 44 which run parallel to one another and through which the connecting rods 38 are passed. At their lower end, the connecting rods 38 are also fixed to the connecting plates 42 by means of end plates 46 .

Figur 4 zeigt ein weiteres, größeres Wandelement 48, das aus elf Transportpaletten 10a und einer Transportpalette 10e aufgebaut ist, wobei zur Bildung jeder der im rechten Winkel zueinander angeordneten Wände 48a, 48b stets drei Reihen der Transportpaletten 10a, 10e übereinander angeordnet sind. Die aufeinander stehenden Transportpaletten 10a, 10e werden mittels Verbindungsstangen 38 miteinander verbunden. Zudem erfolgt eine Verbindung mit den daneben angeordneten Transportpaletten 10a, 10e wie bezüglich Figur 3 beschrieben durch an einer Oberseite und einer Unterseite angeordnete Verbindungsplatten 42 und unterseitig angeordnete Abschlussplatten 46. Die Transportpalette 10e bildet dabei eine Fensteröffnung 24 in der Wand 48b. figure 4 shows another, larger wall element 48, which is made up of eleven transport pallets 10a and one transport pallet 10e, with three rows of transport pallets 10a, 10e always being arranged one above the other to form each of the walls 48a, 48b arranged at right angles to one another. The transport pallets 10a, 10e standing on top of one another are connected to one another by means of connecting rods 38. In addition, there is a connection with the transport pallets 10a, 10e arranged next to it, as with reference to FIG figure 3 described by connecting plates 42 arranged on an upper side and an underside and end plates 46 arranged on the underside. The transport pallet 10e forms a window opening 24 in the wall 48b.

Figur 5 zeigt einen Zaun 50, der durch drei nebeneinander angeordnete Transportpaletten 10a gebildet wird, welche mittels Verbindungsstangen 38 und die Verbindungsstangen 38 an ihren oberen Enden miteinander verbindende Handgriffe 52 sowie die unteren Enden der Verbindungsstangen 38 miteinander verbindenden Füßen 54 miteinander verbunden sind. figure 5 shows a fence 50, which is formed by three transport pallets 10a arranged next to one another, which are connected to one another by means of connecting rods 38 and handles 52 connecting the connecting rods 38 to one another at their upper ends, and feet 54 connecting the lower ends of the connecting rods 38 to one another.

Figur 6 zeigt einen Tisch 56, dessen Tischplatte durch zwei Transportpaletten 10a und dessen Tischbeine durch zwei Transportpaletten 10e gebildet werden. Auch beim Tisch 56 sind die Transportpaletten 10a, 10e mittels Verbindungsstangen 38 miteinander verbunden, die durch die Durchführkanäle 28, 30 durchgeführt sind. Schließlich zeigt Figur 7 drei verschiedene Möbelstücke 58a, 58b, 58c (Sitzbänke 58a, 58b und Couchtisch 58c), die jeweils aus einer Transportpalette 10d gemäß Figur 1d, Verbindungsstangen 38 und mit den Verbindungsstangen 38 verbundenen, Füße bzw. Rückenlehnen bildenden Rohren 60 aufgebaut sind. figure 6 shows a table 56 whose table top is formed by two transport pallets 10a and whose table legs are formed by two transport pallets 10e. In the case of the table 56, too, the transport pallets 10a, 10e are connected to one another by means of connecting rods 38 which are passed through the feed-through channels 28, 30. Finally shows figure 7 three different pieces of furniture 58a, 58b, 58c (benches 58a, 58b and coffee table 58c), each of a transport pallet according to 10d Figure 1d , connecting rods 38 and tubes 60 connected to the connecting rods 38 and forming feet or backrests.

Figur 8 und Figur 9 zeigen jeweils eine Wand mit mindestens einer Transportpalette 10g bzw 10h, welche sich von den Transportpaletten 10a bis 10f der oben beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiele vor allem in einem Punkt unterscheiden: die Abstandsklötze 16 weisen jeweils nur entweder einen ersten Durchführkanal 28 oder einen zweiten Durchführkanal 30 auf. figure 8 and figure 9 each show a wall with at least one transport pallet 10g or 10h, which differs from the transport pallets 10a to 10f of the exemplary embodiments described above in one point in particular: the spacer blocks 16 each only have either a first feed-through channel 28 or a second feed-through channel 30.

Figur 8 zeigt eine nicht erfindungsgemäße Wand 62 mit einer Transportpalette 10g, deren Abstandsklötze jeweils einen ersten Durchführkanal 28 aufweisen. Je zwei der vier Abstandsklötze 16 sind mit einem Pfosten 64 mittels durch die ersten Durchführkanäle durchgesteckter Verbindungsstangen 38 verbunden, die durch endseitig aufgeschraubte Schrauben 66 am Herausrutschen gehindert werden. Die Pfosten 64 umrahmen die Transportpalette 10g und können auf einem Untergrund aufgestellt und/oder in diesem verankert werden. figure 8 shows a wall 62 not according to the invention with a transport pallet 10g, the spacer blocks of which each have a first feed-through channel 28. Every two of the four spacer blocks 16 are connected to a post 64 by means of connecting rods 38 pushed through the first feed-through channels, which are prevented from slipping out by screws 66 screwed on at the ends. The posts 64 frame the transport pallet 10g and can be set up on a base and/or anchored in it.

Figur 9 zeigt eine Wand 68 mit zwei Transportpaletten 10h, die jeweils drei Abstandsklötze 16 mit einem ersten Durchführkanal 28 und einen Abstandsklotz 16 mit einem zweiten Durchführkanal 30 aufweisen. Die Wand 68 ruht auf zwei Füßen 70, die jeweils mittels einer durch einen der zweiten Durchführkanäle 40 durchgeführten und mittels einer endseitig aufgeschraubten Schraube 66 am betreffenden Abstandsklotz fixierten Verbindungsstange 38 jeweils an einer der Transportpaletten 10h befestigt sind. Die ersten Durchführkanäle 28 dienen dem Verbinden zweier Transportpaletten 10h miteinander, indem durch sie Verbindungsstangen 38 durchgesteckt und mittels endseitig aufgeschraubten Schrauben 66 fixiert werden. figure 9 shows a wall 68 with two transport pallets 10h, each of which has three spacer blocks 16 with a first feed-through channel 28 and one spacer block 16 with a second feed-through channel 30. The wall 68 rests on two feet 70, which are each fastened to one of the transport pallets 10h by means of a connecting rod 38 which is passed through one of the second feed-through channels 40 and is fixed to the relevant spacer block by means of a screw 66 screwed onto the end. The first feed-through channels 28 are used to connect two transport pallets 10h to one another by inserting connecting rods 38 through them and fixing them by means of screws 66 screwed on at the ends.

Es versteht sich von selbst, dass die Wände 62, 68 in Figur 8, 9 auch aus Transportpaletten aufgebaut sein können, deren Abstandsklötze jeweils erste und zweite Durchführkanäle ausweisen.It goes without saying that the walls 62, 68 in figure 8 , 9 can also be constructed from transport pallets whose spacer blocks each identify first and second feed-through channels.
