Definitions

• the invention relates generally to a modular transport mechanism for use in loadcarrying vehicles.
• the invention relates to a modular transport mechanism which can be loaded and unloaded and which can be opened when in use and closed when not in use, so that it does not take up space in the vehicle when empty, in order to enable the load to be carried both on the outward and return in independent suspension glass carrier vehicles.
• load carrying vehicles called “inloaders” are used to carry loads such as glass, concrete blocks or panels on highways.
• the load is placed not directly on the vehicle, but on the stand that can enter and exit the vehicle.
• These stands are taken into the vehicle loaded with glass from the production point and the glass is delivered to the customer by unloading the stand.
• the vehicle that brings the glass load from the production point to the customer returns if there is an empty stand brought before or returns empty.
• the present application discloses an apparatus for sliding glass sheets back to back, comprising a means for moving the glass sheets in a longitudinal direction and an apparatus for determining the orientation of a glass sheet, comprising two stops, both of which are in contact with the edge of the glass sheet.
• said detection device transmits an electrical signal according to each contact with each stopper and said electrical signals are connected to a collection system which makes it possible to determine the time between the contacts of each stopper and the glass sheet. Solutions for the transport of glass sheets are described here.
• the present invention relates to a modular transport mechanism which fulfills the above-mentioned requirements, eliminates all disadvantages and brings some additional advantages.
• the main object of the invention is to enable load-carrying vehicles to carry loads both on the outward and return.
• One object of the invention is to increase the fuel efficiency, i.e. the load/fuel coefficient, by transporting loads both on the outward and return.
• Another object of the invention is to ensure efficient utilization of the life of the loadcarrying vehicle.
• a modular transport mechanism for use in load-carrying vehicles which enables the transport of glass or different types of products, comprising a stand base on which the product to be transported is placed, carrier struts which are fixed to the stand base and on which the product placed on the stand base is leaned and which support the product being transported, profiles which are connected to the struts and which distribute the pressure falling on the struts to increase the strength of the struts; If the product to be transported is a glass product, it includes profile connection brackets that enable the profiles to be connected to the struts and if the product to be transported is a product other than glass, it includes profile stacking brackets that enable the profiles to be connected to the bottom of the struts and the base of the stand
• Figure 1 It is the view of the modular transport mechanism, which is subject to the invention, ready for glass transport.
• Figure 2 It is the view of the modular transport mechanism, which is subject to the invention, ready to carry Euro Pallet or a different load.
• Figure 3 It is the glass-loaded view of the modular transport mechanism, which is subject to the invention.
• Figure 4 It is the Euro pallet loaded view of the modular transport mechanism, which is subject to the invention.
• the invention is a modular transport mechanism which is in the open position when carrying a load and can be closed when not carrying a load and thus does not take up space in the vehicle when in the closed position and includes the following:
• Supporting struts (2) which are fixed to the base of the stand (1) and on which the product placed on the base of the stand (1) rests and supports the product
• profile stacking brackets (4) for fixing the profiles (3) to the lower part of the uprights (2) and the base of the stand (1)
• a load of glass when a load of glass is to be transported, it is placed in a vertical position against the base of the stand (1), resting on struts (2) by means of profiles (3) and inclined.
• the view of the modular transport mechanism loaded with glass is shown in Figure 3, and as can be seen from the view of the glass ready for transport in Figure 1 , the profiles (3) are fixed to the struts (2) by means of profile connection brackets (3.1), which give the invention a modular feature.
• the glass product is prepared in this way, it is loaded onto the glass carrier vehicle.
• the invention comprises four struts (2) and three profiles (3) as preferred in the embodiment disclosed herein.
• the struts (2) can be spaced apart sufficiently to accommodate two Euro pallets or 36 m3 of load. Six Euro pallets in a single layer or twelve Euro pallets in a double layer can fit in this opening. After the user has adapted the mechanism to carry different loads, it can be loaded with a standard wooden Euro pallet or 36 m3 volume.
• the modular load-carrying mechanism of the invention has been developed to carry glass loads in the preferred embodiment of the invention. With the modular transport mechanism, the vehicle with the glass load is prevented from returning with an empty stand.
• the invention makes it possible to load pallets (ISO1 , EURO1 and EURO pallets of the same size) or other loads, e.g. pallets measuring 1200x800 mm, onto the load transport vehicle on the return.
