Abstract

The invention relates to a bulk material container having a cuboidal support structure (9), which has a bottom frame (11) and a top frame (19) and bears sheet metal plating that consists of a bottom sheet metal wall (5), side sheet metal walls (1) and end sheet metal walls (3) that are completely closed over their entire surface and are formed without loading and unloading openings, wherein the top frame (19), for loading and unloading bulk material, bounds an open container top (7) and the bottom frame (11) has at least one forklift pocket (29) that is in the form of a tubular transverse hollow girder with a hollow profile that is closed in cross section (xz) and is open towards the outside on both sides in a container transverse direction (y), and wherein an unloading operation takes place by engagement of a forklift truck in the forklift pocket (29), with the result that the bulk material container is tilted until the bulk material falls out of the open container top (7). According to the invention, to increase the container rigidity during the unloading operation, the forklift pocket (29) is a constituent of a U-shaped hollow girder reinforcement (33), at which the forklift pocket (29) transitions directly into vertical reinforcement hollow girders (35) at bottom-side reinforcement nodes (K_B) on both sides in the container transverse direction (y). The vertical reinforcement hollow girders (35) are attached to the top frame (19), forming top-side reinforcement nodes (K_D).

Description

Bulk container

The invention relates to a bulk container according to the preamble of claim 1 or 10.

Such a bulk container is used to transport all types of bulk material, such as wood chips. In addition, the bulk goods container can be equipped with forklift pockets which enable forklift intervention, as is known from AT 506 371 B1.

Accordingly, the bulk container is realized as an open-top container with an open container roof, which can be covered with a tarpaulin or other cover if necessary. The bulk goods container otherwise has a bottom plate wall, side plate walls and end plate walls which are completely closed over their entire surface, that is to say are designed without loading and unloading openings.

A rotary discharge is carried out in AT 506 371 B1. With such a rotary discharge, the forklift tilts the bulk container around the front of the container until the bulk material falls out of the open container roof.

The tilting movement during the unloading process places a high load on the bulk container, which means that there is a risk that the container walls will deform, that is to say bend apart.

The object of the invention is to provide a bulk container which, compared to the prior art, provides increased container rigidity during the unloading process in a structurally simple manner. The object is solved by the features of claim 1 or 10. Preferred developments of the invention are disclosed in the subclaims.

According to the characterizing part of claim 1, each stacker bag, which is designed as a bottom-side, tubular cross hollow beam, is part of a U-shaped hollow beam reinforcement, by means of which the container rigidity during the unloading process can be increased. In the U-shaped hollow girder reinforcement, the forklift pocket transitions directly into vertical reinforcement hollow girders in the transverse direction of the container on both sides at the bottom-side reinforcement nodes. The vertical reinforcement hollow beams are connected to the roof frame of the bulk goods container to form force-transmitting reinforcement nodes.

With regard to container rigidity, it is preferred if the side panel walls and the end panel walls are completely closed over their entire surface and are designed without loading and unloading openings. Alternatively, at least one discharge opening can be formed in at least one of the side panel walls and / or the end panel walls. In this case, bulk goods are not unloaded via the open container roof, but in the case of tilted bulk goods containers via the unloading opening which is formed in the side panel wall or in the end panel wall.

In a technical implementation, exactly two such U-shaped hollow beam reinforcements can be realized in the bulk container. Each U-shaped hollow girder reinforcement can be integrated at its base-side reinforcement nodes and at its roof-side reinforcement nodes in the cuboid-shaped supporting structure of the bulk goods container.

The support frame mentioned above can consist of a floor frame and a roof frame. In a preferred, constructive embodiment, the floor frame can be constructed from floor longitudinal members and floor cross members, which are connected to one another at floor corner fittings. In the same way the roof frame can also be constructed from longitudinal roof beams and roof cross beams, which are connected to each other at roof corner fittings. A vertical corner girder can be provided on each corner of the container, which connects the top and bottom corner fittings to one another. With regard to perfect container rigidity during the unloading process, it is preferred if all the longitudinal, transverse and vertical beams of the supporting structure are designed as tubular hollow beams with a hollow profile closed in cross section.

In the following, a preferred geometry of the reinforcement node on the bottom and the reinforcement node on the roof is described, by means of which the U-shaped hollow beam reinforcement can be integrated into the supporting structure in a structurally simple manner in order to increase the container rigidity:

Accordingly, each of the floor side members can be divided into two front side member outer parts and a side member central part. These can be arranged one behind the other in the longitudinal direction of the container with the interposition of the transverse forklift pockets. For this reason, a longitudinal member outer part, the longitudinal member central part, the vertical hollow reinforcement beam and the stacker pocket converge in a force-transmitting manner on the bottom reinforcement node. It is preferred if the stacker pocket forms a support base to which the longitudinal member outer part, the longitudinal member central part and the vertical reinforcement hollow member are connected (that is to say welded).

For this reason, the center member of the longitudinal member and one of the outer members of the longitudinal member can preferably be connected to the narrow sides of the stacker pockets in a butt weld connection. On the upper flat side of the stacker bag, the reinforcement hollow beam can be connected in butt weld connection.

A sheet metal angle profile part can be provided to further stiffen the reinforcement node on the bottom. The sheet metal angle profile part can have a horizontal base leg and a vertical side leg angled at right angles therefrom. In the assembled position, the sheet metal angle section part can enclose a lower outer edge of the longitudinal member. In this case, the horizontal Bottom legs are connected to both the lower flat side of the stacker bag and a lower underside of the side member. The vertical side leg of the sheet metal angle section part can be connected both to a longitudinal beam outside and to the vertical reinforcement hollow beam.

In a further development, the sheet metal angle profile part can additionally act as a shock protection when the forklift arms are inserted into the forklift pockets. In this case, a recess can also be formed in the vertical side leg of the sheet metal angle profile part, which delimits a forklift pocket opening.

It is preferred if the side sheet metal wall of the bulk goods container runs in the longitudinal direction of the container between the corner vertical beams without interruption, that is to say completely continuously. In the same way, the end panel wall can also run completely continuously in the transverse direction of the container between the corner vertical beams. In the event of a load, that is to say during the unloading process, the end plate wall and the side plate wall thus form large-area thrust fields, via which a force transmission or force distribution takes place between the corner vertical supports, in order to avoid excessive loading of the lower container end face during the rotary unloading.

With regard to a material-saving container construction, the reinforcing hollow beam can be constructed from a C-shaped extruded profile part which has a hollow profile that is open to the outside in the transverse direction of the container. Its profile flanks (protruding from a profile floor) can be connected (that is, preferably welded) to the inside of the side panel wall to form a closed hollow profile.

In contrast to the floor side members described above, the respective roof side member between the corner corner fittings can extend completely in the longitudinal direction of the container. In this case, the vertical reinforcement hollow beam of the U-shaped hollow beam reinforcement can be connected directly to the underside of the roof longitudinal beam, forming the roof-side reinforcement knot. The forklift pockets act as additional crossbeams in the floor frame, which divide a floor frame opening into two end partial openings and an intermediate central partial opening. The three partial frame openings can be spanned by three mutually independent bottom wall segments. These are spaced apart in the longitudinal direction of the container with the interposition of the stacker pockets.

In contrast to AT 506 371 B1, the end panel walls and the side panel walls run completely continuously in a vertical plane in the bulk goods container according to the invention, and specifically without lateral bulges in the side panel walls, as is shown in AT 506 371 B1. Such lateral bulges in the side panel walls increase the container loading volume. According to the invention, such lateral bulges are dispensed with in order to reduce container loads during the unloading process. Against this background, according to the invention, the vertical reinforcement hollow beam, in particular its C-profile part, can also be designed as a linear, elongated extruded profile with a cross-section that is constant in the production direction.

The bulk container according to the invention can be reloaded in the manner of a conventional ISO container in a simple manner between different modes of transport, for example between the train and a truck semitrailer, by means of a container stacker for reloading such ISO containers. It is therefore preferred if the floor and roof corner fittings are designed as ISO container corner fittings, as are also installed in a conventional ISO container.

In the above embodiment, the two end plate walls can be fastened as simple trapezoidal sheet metal parts on the end face to the cuboid supporting structure of the bulk goods container, that is to say they can be welded on. In contrast to this, in a further embodiment, one of the end plate walls can be built up from a frame-like closed portal frame which surrounds an unloading door. The unloading door can be pivoted, for example, around an upper, horizontally oriented one Pivot axis in the portal frame. This limits a cross-sectional unloading opening at the front which can be closed by means of the pivoting unloading door.

In addition, the portal frame can be designed as a separate attachment, which is attached to a vertical frame of the bulk goods container on the supporting frame. The vertical frame can be constructed from the floor cross member, the corner vertical members and the roof cross member.

In addition, a small cross-sectional discharge opening can be formed in the pivotable unloading door, which can be closed via a closing element, in particular a slide.

During an unloading process, the forklift brings the bulk goods container defined above into a tilted position and the unloading door and / or the closing element is opened until the bulk goods can fall out of one of the unloading openings.

Alternatively, in a further embodiment, one of the side plate walls can have an unloading door which is formed, for example, from two door leaves. The two door wings can each be articulated directly or indirectly to the corner vertical support about a vertical pivot axis via hinges. The two door leaves can preferably be enclosed in a separate portal frame, which can be mounted laterally on the supporting frame as a separate attachment.

In a further development, a C-profile part can be welded on the inside of each of the door leaves. The C-profile part forms, together with the respective door leaf, a vertical reinforcement hollow beam, which is part of the U-shaped hollow beam reinforcement. In this case, the C-profile part can preferably neither be welded to the upper flat side of the forklift pockets nor to the upper side member of the roof, but rather only be in a loose, force-transmitting system in order to enable door operation. Alternatively, the installation of such a C-profile part on the respective door leaf can be dispensed with entirely. In this case, the respective hollow beam reinforcement is no longer U-shaped, but rather L-shaped, with the bottom-side stacker pocket and only exactly one reinforcement hollow beam pulled up from it. Viewed in the transverse direction of the container, this is positioned on the side panel wall opposite the door leaves.

Three exemplary embodiments of the invention are described below with reference to the attached figures.

Embodiment.

In Fig. 1, a bulk container is shown, which is implemented as an open-top container. This consists of side plate walls 1, end plate walls 3 and a bottom plate wall 5, which are completely closed over their entire surface and are designed without loading and unloading openings. For loading and unloading bulk goods, the bulk goods container has an open container roof 7 (that is, a container roof opening), which can be covered with a tarpaulin if necessary. The side panel walls 1, the end panel walls 3 and the bottom panel wall 5 are supported by a cuboid support frame 9, as shown (in isolation and in an exploded view) in FIG. 2. Accordingly, the support frame 9 has a floor frame 11 made of floor longitudinal members 13 and floor cross members 15, which are connected to one another at floor corner fittings 17 (FIG. 1). In addition, the support frame 9 has a roof frame 19 made of longitudinal roof beams 21 and roof cross beams 23. These are connected to one another at roof corner fittings 25 (FIG. 1). 1 and 2, a corner vertical support 27 is provided on each corner of the container, which connects the top and bottom corner fittings 17, 25 to one another.

Two stacker pockets 29 are also integrated in the base frame 11. These extend in a container transverse direction y between the two floor longitudinal members 13. Each of the stacker pockets 29 is designed as a tubular cross hollow carrier with a hollow profile closed in cross section xz, specifically as a square flat profile tube which is on both sides in a container transverse direction y openings 31 (FIG. 5) are open to the outside of stacker pockets.

The bulk goods container according to the invention provides a container stiffness that is increased compared to the prior art during a rotary unloading process. To increase the container rigidity, each of the stacker pockets 29 is part of a U-shaped hollow beam reinforcement 33 in the figures. In the U-shaped hollow beam reinforcement 33, the stacker pocket 29 is force-transmitting in the transverse direction y on both sides of the reinforcement nodes KB on the bottom into vertical reinforcement hollow beams 35. The vertical reinforcement hollow girders 35 are butt welded to the underside of the roof longitudinal girders 23, forming roof reinforcement nodes KD. As can be seen in FIG. 2, the roof longitudinal girders 23 extend completely continuously along the longitudinal direction of the container x between the roof corner fittings 25.

In contrast to the roof side members 23, each floor side member 13 is subdivided into two front side member outer parts 37 and one side member middle part 39. The two longitudinal member outer parts 37 and the longitudinal member middle part 39 are arranged one behind the other in the container longitudinal direction x with the interposition of the stacker pockets 29.

4 to 6 show the structural design of the bottom reinforcement node KB: Accordingly, the stacker pocket 29 (i.e. a flat profile tube) forms a support base on which the longitudinal member outer part 37, the longitudinal member middle part 39 and the reinforcing hollow member 35 are connected. For example, the longitudinal central part 39 and the longitudinal outer part 37 are welded to the two narrow sides 41 of the stacker pocket 29, while a C-shaped profile part 45 of the reinforcing hollow beam 35 is connected to an upper flat side 43 (FIG. 5) of the stacker pocket 29 ( that is welded).

As can be seen from FIG. 5, the reinforcement hollow support 35 is constructed from the above-mentioned C-shaped profile part 45, which is open outward in the container transverse direction y. Whose profile flanks 47 are welded to form a closed hollow profile on the inside of the side panel wall 1 (that is, on the flat mounting portion 65).

The side panel walls 1 run in the container longitudinal direction x between the corner vertical beams 27 completely continuously. In the same way, the end panel walls 3 run completely continuously between the corner vertical beams 27 in the container transverse direction y. In this way, the front sheet metal walls 3 and the side sheet metal walls 1 form large-area thrust fields under load, that is to say during a rotating unloading, via which a force transmission or distribution takes place between the corner vertical beams 27 in order to avoid deformation of the container during the unloading process .

The forklift pockets 29 integrated in the floor frame 11 act as additional cross members which divide a floor frame opening 49 (FIG. 2) into two end partial openings 51 and an intermediate central partial opening 53. The partial openings 51, 53 are of a total of three bottom wall segments 54, 55, 56 spans, which are spaced apart in the longitudinal direction x of the container with the interposition of the stacker pockets 29 and form the bottom plate wall 5.

To further stiffen the base-side reinforcement knot KB, a sheet metal angle section part 57 is provided in the figures, which has a horizontal base leg 59 and a vertical side leg 61 protruding therefrom at right angles. The sheet metal angle profile part 57 spans an inner corner region which surrounds a lower longitudinal beam outer edge 67 (FIG. 6 or 7). The horizontal bottom leg 59 of the sheet metal angle section part 57 is welded to both the lower stacker pocket flat side 63 (FIGS. 6 or 7) and to the undersides of the longitudinal member outer part 37 and the longitudinal member middle part 39. In contrast, the vertical side leg 61 of the sheet metal angle section part 57 is welded on the outside to the longitudinal member outer part 37 and the longitudinal member central part 39 and to the side plate wall 1. A recess 66 (FIG. 6) is also formed in the vertical side leg 61 of the sheet metal angle section part 57, which delimits the stacker pocket opening 31.

Both the front and side panel walls 1, 3 and the bottom wall 5 are realized as trapezoidal sheets. In the side panel walls 1, the trapezoidal profile is interrupted by flat mounting sections 65. These are in butt welded connection with the C-shaped profile parts 45 of the reinforcing hollow supports 35 (FIGS. 4 or 5).

In the exemplary embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 8, the two end plate walls 3 are fastened on the face side as simple trapezoidal sheet metal parts to the cuboid supporting structure 9 of the bulk goods container, that is to say welded on. In contrast to this, in the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 9, one of the end plate walls 3 is constructed from a frame-like closed portal frame 68 which surrounds an unloading door 69. The unloading door 69 is pivotally mounted in the portal frame 68 about an upper, horizontally oriented pivot axis S. The portal frame 68 delimits a cross-sectional end discharge opening. This is closed in FIG. 9 by means of the pivotable unloading door 69. In addition, the portal frame 68 is designed as a separate attachment, which in FIG. 9 is attached to a vertical frame V on the supporting frame side. This is constructed from the floor cross member 15, the corner vertical members 27 and the roof cross member 24.

In the pivotable unloading door 69, a small cross-sectional unloading opening is formed, which can be closed via a closing element 71, in particular a slide.

During an unloading process, the forklift brings the bulk goods container shown in FIG. 9 into a tilted position and the unloading door 69 and / or the closing element 71 is opened until the bulk goods can fall out of one of the unloading openings.

In the closed state shown in FIG. 9, the unloading door 69 is secured to the vertical frame V via locking elements 73, in particular a snap lock.

As an alternative to FIG. 9, a further exemplary embodiment is shown in FIG. 10, in which one of the side panel walls 1 forms an unloading door with two door leaves 75. The two door leaves 75 are each articulated about a vertical pivot axis S via hinges 77 to corner vertical supports 27. As explained above with reference to FIG. 9, the two door leaves 75 can likewise be enclosed in a separate portal frame, which is fastened to the supporting frame 9 as an attachment.

10, a C-profile part 45 can be welded on the inside of each of the door leaves 75. The C-profile part 45 forms, together with the respective door leaf 75, a vertical reinforcement hollow support which is part of the U-shaped hollow support reinforcement 33. In this case, the C-profile part 75 is neither welded to the upper flat side 43 of the stacker bag 29 nor to the upper roof side member 21, but rather in a loose, force-transmitting system to enable door operation. Alternatively, the installation of a C-profile part 45 on the respective door leaf 75 can be dispensed with. In this case, the respective hollow girder reinforcement 33 is no longer U-shaped, but rather L-shaped, with the bottom-side stacker pocket 29 and only one reinforcing hollow girder 35 pulled up therefrom. This is viewed in the container transverse direction y , positioned on the side panel wall 1 opposite the door leaves 75.
