As shown in FIG. 1, the horizontal member 3 is fitted with the vertical members 1 and 2 with the two horizontal members 3t and 3b facing up and down in parallel. As shown in FIG. 5, in the horizontal members 3 (upper and lower horizontal members 3 t and 3 b) located at both ends of the frame 9, the fixed members fixed to the ends of the vertical members 2 located inside the frame 9. A fitting portion 34 (one portion in the drawing) into which the upper end or the lower end of the plate 22 is fitted is provided. The fitting portion 34 is formed by connecting a U-shaped member to the horizontal member 3 by means such as welding.
It is fixed to. When the upper end or the lower end of the fixing plate 22 of the vertical member 2 is fitted into the fitting portion 34, the vertical member 2
Are fitted immovably in the longitudinal direction of the horizontal member 3.

Furthermore, the horizontal members 3 located at both ends of the frame 9
(The upper and lower horizontal members 3t and 3b)
As shown in FIG. 7, the horizontal members 3t and 3b extend from the end of the end surface 3a, which is the outer end surface of the frame 9, to facilitate insertion and removal of a fork such as a forklift into and out of the gap between t and 3b. A guide plate 35 extending toward the gap between 3t and 3b may be provided.

As described above, the vertical members 1 and 2 and the horizontal member 3
Are fitted as shown in FIG. 1, and then the band 4 is inserted through holes 13 through which the bands 4 are formed in the longitudinal members 1 at both ends facing each other. After hanging and tightening, both ends of the band 4 are bound using a binding means such as an air binding device or a manual binding device.
The band 4 has holes 1 formed in upper and lower grooves 11 of the vertical member 1.

Is tightened. Since the vertical member and the horizontal member are fitted and bound by the band in this manner, a frame body 9 in which each member is immovable in any of up, down, left, right, front and rear directions is obtained, and can be applied as the skid 10. .

FIG. 1 shows an example of a "square" shaped skid comprising three sets of vertical members and three sets of upper and lower horizontal members. However, depending on the type of loading, as shown in FIG. It may be used as a pallet whose upper surface is covered with a plurality of (five in the figure) upper horizontal members 3t with almost no gap. In this case, if a notch portion in which a plurality of (five) upper horizontal members 3t are fitted is provided in the vertical member 2, the rigidity of the vertical member 2 is significantly reduced, and therefore, as shown in FIG. It is preferable to use the vertical member 2 provided with the cutout portion 23 into which the horizontal member 3 fits only on the lower surface shown in d) and not provided with the cutout portion on the upper surface. Movement of the upper horizontal member 3t in the longitudinal direction of the vertical members 1 and 2 can be prevented as follows. That is,
As shown in FIG. 10, the stopper 16 is fixed to the groove 11 of the vertical member 1 by means of spot welding or the like at intervals of the width of the upper horizontal member 3 t in the upper groove of the vertical member 1. By fitting the end of the upper horizontal member 3t between the stoppers 16. After the vertical members and the horizontal members are fitted and arranged in this manner, the bands 4 are inserted through the band insertion holes 13 of the vertical members 1 and tightened, and then both ends of the bands 4 are bound to form a pallet.

Since the skid 10 of the present invention is constructed as described above, the frame 9 is disassembled into the vertical members 1 and 2, the horizontal member 3 and the band 4 and stored. If necessary, the member can be transported to the point of use, assembled into a frame using a simple device such as a binding device, and used as a skid. Since the disassembly and assembly are extremely easy, if any one of the components of the vertical member 1 or 2, the horizontal member 3, or the band 4 is damaged or deformed and cannot be used as a skid, the entire skid cannot be used. Can be disassembled and replaced for damaged or deformed components, reassembled and reused as skids.

The vertical members 1 and 2 and the horizontal member 3
Are at most about 1 m in length, can be moved and transported by one person, and do not require a special transport device. Furthermore, since the members are substantially columnar in shape, they can be stored collectively for each member, and a smaller storage space is sufficient as compared with the case of storing and storing as skids. Thus, the easily disassembled transport skid of the present invention is extremely economical in many aspects.

[0019]

According to the present invention, a plurality of vertical members and horizontal members made of a steel plate or the like having a fitting portion are fitted at the fitting portion to form a frame, and then the frame is formed of a band such as a steel band. It is a transport skid that is bound and fixed, and is easy to disassemble and assemble. Therefore, it is possible to transport components to a place of use and use them to assemble the frame using a simple device.
If the members that make up the frame are damaged or deformed,
It is possible to replace the member and reassemble it to the frame body and reuse it. Furthermore, since it can be stored and stored in the form of a member, a large storage space space is not required as compared with the case of storing and storing as a skid.
