Abstract
A mobile platform assembly 10 has a rectangular platform 12 with a deck 16 and wheeled castors 14. A first downwardly directed flange (42 Fig 2 not shown) is located along one edge (18b Fig 2 not shown) of the platform 12 and an upwardly directed flange 32 is located along the opposite 18a, so that the flange (42 Fig 2) can slidably engage the second flange 32 of a similar platform assembly 12 until it abuts an end stop 60 associated with the flange 32, each of the engaging flanges being received in a channel 34, formed between the respective opposite flanges and associated platforms respectively. Two pads 51, 52 extend from the platform 12 in association with the flange 32 to engage an upper surface (45 Fig 2) of the flange (42 Fig 2) when two similar platforms 12 are engaged. The flanges restrain the two platforms 12 from moving apart laterally and the two pads 51, 52 restrain the two platforms from relative vertical displacement. A latch (80 Fig 3, not shown), associated with the flange 42, engages with a projection (70 Fig 2 not shown) formed on the flange 32 of a similar platform 12, when two flanges 32, 42 are engaged, to restrain the two platforms 12 from relative longitudinal displacement. <IMAGE>
Description
A MOBILE PLATFORM ASSEMBLY
The present - invention relates to mobile platform assemblies and is primarily concerned with wheeled such assemblies having load carrying decks that are intended to be connected together to allow a range of deck sizes to be formed.
Typically, wheeled platforms are available in a series of standard sizes, each size being a multiple size of the smallest platform. However, to alleviate the necessity of retaining several sizes of wheeled pallets, several single sized platforms may be employed which have means allowing them to be easily and securely connected together to form larger platforms. A mobile platform assembly of this latter type is described in our British Patent Specification No. GB 22 636 84A in which securing means along longitudinal edges of the platform may be connected with securing means of similar platforms in a longitudinal direction to securely retain the platform assemblies together.
It is an object of this invention to provide a mobile platform assembly, primarily in the form of a wheeled platform, which has an improved and simplified means for securing two or more similar platforms together to provide an enlarged deck.
According to the present invention there is provided a mobile platform assembly comprising a substantially horizontal, rectangular platform having a deck and ground engaging roller means for moving the platform, said platform having a first securing means provided at a longitudinally extending edge thereof and a second securing means provided at a parallel and laterally opposed extending edge thereof so that the first securing means of a first platform assembly is slidably engageable in a longitudinal direction with the second securing means of a similar platform assembly to retain the adjacent longitudinally extending edges of the two platform assemblies in close parallel alignment to form.- -a unified platform structure with an enlarged, substantially rectangular, deck and wherein the first securing means comprises a longitudinal, downwardly opening first channel having a downwardly directed first flange remote from the platform and the second securing means comprises a longitudinal, upwardly opening second channel having an upwardly directed second flange remote from the platform, whereby longitudinal engagement of the securing means of two similar platform assemblies causes the first flange of a first platform assembly to be received in the second channel of the second platform assembly and the second flange of the second platform assembly to be received in the first channel of the first platform assembly to restrict relative lateral movement between the platform assemblies, and wherein the platform is provided with laterally extending flange means associated with at least one of its two channels which flange means is arranged so that when two said assemblies form the unified platform structure, the laterally extending flange means retains a flange in the channel with which the flange means is associated to restrict relative vertical displacement between two platform assemblies in the unified structure.
The laterally extending flange means may comprise at least one shoulder extending horizontally and laterally from the longitudinally extending edge having the second securing means, and this shoulder is positioned so as to co-operate with an upwardly directed surface of the first securing means of a second platform assembly when two said assemblies form a unified structure. Alteratively, or in addition, the laterally extending flange means may comprise at least one shoulder extending horizontally and laterally from the longitudinally extending edge having the first securing means, and this shoulder is positioned so as to co-operate with a downwardly directed surface of the second securing means of a second platform assembly when two said assemblies form a unified structure.
In a preferred form of the present invention, releasable retaining means may be carried by the platform which, during said sliding engagement between two similar platform assemblies, co-operate between these assemblies to restrain relative longitudinal displacement between the assemblies in the unified structure. These retaining means will usually comprise a first retaining part associated with the first securing means and a second retaining part associated with the second securing means so that the first retaining part cooperates with the second retaining part of a second platform assembly when two said assemblies form the unified structure.
Preferably the second retaining part comprises a latch and the first retaining part comprises a projection with which the latch is engageable. The projection will usually be located on an upwardly directed surface of the second flange, and the latch will usually comprise a pivoted lever on the longitudinally extending side of the platform assembly on which the first securing means is located, and which is biased for its intended engagement, preferably to exhibit snap engagement.
Conveniently, access is provided to the lever to permit its disengagement manually from the projection.
It will be realised that the first retaining part may comprise the latch and the second retaining part may comprise the projection with which the latch is to be engaged.
Usually, the roller means of the present invention will comprise castored wheels, and recesses may be formed in the deck to accommodate the wheels of a similar overlying platform assembly when said similar assemblies are stacked vertically.
The platform assembly will usually be made, substantially, as a plastics moulding.
One embodiment of a wheeled platform assembly will now be described by way of an example only with reference to the accompanying illustrative drawings in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the assembly from one end;
Figure 2 is a perspective view of the assembly from the opposite end;
Figure 3 is a lateral cross section of two similar platform assemblies when connected together.
Figure 4 is a perspective view illustrating operation of the retaining means of two similar platform assemblies during their connection.
Referring now to Figure 1, the wheeled pallet assembly 10 has a generally oblong rectangular platform 12, typically formed as a plastics moulding, supported by four castor wheel castor assemblies 14 attached to the underside of the platform 10 at each of its corners. The rectangular platform 10 has a flat, horizontal deck 16 and presents opposed shorter side walls 17a, 17b and opposed longer side walls 18a, 18b of which at least the latter are substantially perpendicular to the said deck 16.
Four recesses 20 are formed in the deck 16, one towards each corner of the platform 12, which are located so as to receive the wheels of the castor assemblies 14 of a similar platform stacked on top of the platform 12. These recesses 20 serve a dual purpose in stabilizing the stacked assemblies and reducing the volume of space required to create such a stack.
The shorter side wall 17b (Figure 2) has a recess 22 towards its upper edge 23, which extends inwardly from the side wall 17b into the deck 16. This recess 22 accommodates a hole 24 extending through the platform 12. This hole 24 may be convenient for coupling an array of similar assemblies together.
The two longitudinally extending longer side walls 18b, and 18a carry a first securing means 40 (Figure 2) and second securing means 30 (Figure 1) respectively. The first securing means 40 comprises a longitudinally extending and downwardly directed flange 42 which extends parallel to the side 18b of the platform. This flange 42 is held remote from the side 18b by a horizontal support extension 44 extending longitudinally towards the upper edge of the side 18b and parallel with the deck 16. The flange 42 forms a longitudinally extending and downwardly opening channel 46 between the side 18b and the flange 42.
The second securing means 30 (Figure 1) comprises a longitudinally extending and upwardly directed flange 32 parallel to the side 18a of the platform 12. This flange 32 is held remote from the side 18a by a horizontal support extension 34 extending longitudinally towards the lower edge of the side 18a and parallel with the deck 16, forming a longitudinally extending, upwardly opening channel 36 between the side 18a and the flange 32. Side 18a of the platform also has downwardly directed shoulders formed by two pads 51, 52 extending laterally from the deck 16, one towards each of the longitudinally opposed ends of the side 18a. The undersides 50a of these pads are horizontal and extend laterally from the side 18a at a position so that they are slightly below the plane of the deck 16 (see Figure 3).
Further located on side 18a of the platform assembly 10, towards its longitudinal end adjacent to side 17b, is a laterally projecting end- stop 60, which in use allows the securing means of two connected assemblies to be correctly positioned relative to each other and restricts relative longitudinal movement in one sense of direction between two assemblies during their connection.
Two similar platform assemblies 10 and 10' (Figure 3) may be connected together by slideably engaging the first engaging means 40 of one platform assembly 10 with the second engaging means 30 of the other platform assembly 10' in a longitudinal direction. This is achieved by placing two similar platform assemblies 10 and 10' adjacent one another with longitudinal side 18a of a first assembly 10 adjacent to, but longitudinally displaced relative to, a longitudinal side 18b' of the second assembly 10' so that the end stop 60 is remote from the platform 10'. The two assemblies 10, 10' may then be pushed together, initially, laterally such that part of the flanges 32 and 42' contact the sides 18b' and 18a respectively.The two assemblies 10, 10' are then pushed together by relative longitudinal movement between the two assemblies to bring them into parallel alignment and cause the flange 32 of the first platform assembly 10 to slide into the channel 46' of the second platform assembly 10' and simultaneously, the flange 42' of the second assembly 10' to slide into the channel 36 of the first assembly 10, so that the engagement of the flanges and channels restricts relative lateral movement between the two platform assemblies 10, 10'.
Furthermore, the relative longitudinal movement between the two assemblies 10, 10' is limited in one sense of direction by the end stop 60 on the first assembly 10. As the assemblies are moved longitudinally relative to one each other the flange 42' of the second assembly 10' will eventually abut against the end stop 60 of the first assembly 10, preventing further longitudinal displacement in that direction and aligning the two securing means 30 and 40' of the two assemblies in a predetermined relationship. In this latter relationship the underside surfaces 50a of the two pads 51 and 52 of the first assembly 10 overlie and abut against an upwardly directed surface 45' of the horizontal support extension 44' of the second assembly to restrain the two flanges 42' and 32 from relative vertical displacement.
The assembly 10 also has a retaining means to prevent relative longitudinal displacement between the two assemblies when they are connected together. This retaining means comprises a latch 80 and projection 70 arrangement as best seen in Figure 4. The flange 32 of the second securing means 30 has at its longitudinal end, remote from the end stop 60, a gently curved edge 66 which provides a lead-in to an upwardly opening recess 68 forming the projection 70. The latch 80 comprises a bar mounted by a pivot pin 82 on the side 18b of the assembly 10 to extend parallel with the flange 42 and opposite to the notch 68. The latch 80 is tapered at one end 81 of the bar to form a downwardly directed lead-in face 84 to a shoulder 88.
The opposite end of the latch bar presents a foot pedal 83. In the preferred embodiment, this latch 80 is weighted (or spring loaded) so that its end 81 is biassed downwardly.
It should be appreciated that for convenience of description, Figure 4 shows the latch 80 disembodied from a platform assembly and in a position it would occupy for two similar assemblies when positioned ready to be connected together longitudinally as previously described. An inner face 89 of the latch 80 lies flush against the side 18b of the platform assembly so that the lead-in face 84 of the latch 80 lies in the channel 46 of the first securing means 40 of the platform assembly. Thereby, when two similar assemblies are connected together longitudinally (that is as the first 40 and second 30 securing means, of a first and second platform assembly respectively, engage one another as previously described), the latch 80 of the first platform assembly will be brought into contact with the lead-in edge 66 of the flange 32 of the second assembly.This causes the lead-in face 84 of the latch to ride up and over the gently curved lead-in edge 66, causing the latch 80 to pivot about the pin 82 (pad 52 preventing vertical displacement between the two platform assemblies), until the shoulder 88 of the latch 80 snap engages over the projection 70 on the flange 32. The end stop 60 prevents longitudinal displacement between the two assemblies in one direction while the engaged shoulder 88 and projection 70 of the retaining means prevents longitudinal displacement between the two assemblies in the opposite direction, thus connecting and securing the two platform assemblies together to form an enlarged deck structure.
The two connected platform assemblies may simply be separated by depressing the foot pedal 83 to pivot the latch 80 about the pin 82 and out of engagement with the projection 70 of the notch, and then pushing the two assemblies apart longitudinally.
If required, more than two assemblies 10 may be joined together in this manner to form larger deck structures, provided the first securing means of one assembly is coupled with the second securing means of an adjacent assembly.
If required, the unified platform assemblies, or indeed the individual assemblies, may be utilized to carry a container of a modular size, or may have peripheral walls attached to form a container with the deck of the assembly or the enlarged deck of two or more connected assemblies.
It will also be appreciated that variations to the preferred embodiment of the present invention as herein described and illustrated are possible. For example, the pads 51, 52 may extend the complete length of the longitudinally extending side of the platform or may be associated with both or either of the two flanges 32, 42. Further, the latch and projection of the retaining means may be reversed so that the latch is associated with the first securing means while the shoulder is located on the flange of the second securing means, or alternatively a different retaining means altogether may be employed, for example a pair of simple snap engaging spigots mounted on an inwardly directed face of each flange or even a spring mounted ball on one flange to be received in a socket arrangement of the other flange. It would also be possible to provide additional securing means on the laterally extending side walls of the platform assemblies to permit similar assemblies to be joined together longitudinally or laterally, or even both.
