Description

【0001】
【発明が属する技術分野】
本発明は、種々の部品や、部品を収めたトレイ、ケース等を収納し、フォークリフト等で運搬し、不使用時には折畳み可能となる輸送用折畳コンテナの改良に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来より、金属製の格子によって形成される折畳可能な輸送用折畳コンテナは一般的によく知られており、例えば、特開平6−56190号に開示される発明、即ち、底枠上に対して折畳み自在な左右一対の側枠並びに前後の枠を有し、前後の枠と側枠との隣接縁部のいずれか一方に直角状の折り曲げ部を形成し、組立時にコーナー部を避けて前後の枠と側枠の連結を行うべく構成した折畳自在なコンテナ(以下、先行技術1という。)や、実開平5−19193号に開示される発明、即ち、台枠と、この台枠の上面に取付けた格子状底板と、該底板の周縁部に立設する格子状の前後部両壁体及び格子状の左右両側壁体とを備えたコンテナにおいて、前記壁体のうち少なくとも一つの壁体に、該壁体の高さ方向中間位置から底板に至る下半部が開口する開口部を形成するとともに。該開口部の上端部に、前記開口部を開閉する扉体を回動自在に支持し、かつ、この扉体を前記開口部の閉鎖位置で係合及び離脱可能にロックするロック手段を設けた輸送用折畳コンテナ(以下、先行技術2という。)等が公知である。
【0003】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
上記先行技術1に係る輸送用折畳コンテナは、折畳状態で積載する際の、上段に積載されたコンテナが下段のコンテナに対してずれることを防止しようとするものであるが、全水平方向に対するズレを防止するものでなく、左右方向のみに対して行うものであり、その一方で、実際に生ずるコンテナのズレは、様々な方向からの外力により生ずるものであることから、確実にズレを防止するには到底至らないものであった。
【0004】
また、一方で、先行技術2に係る輸送用折畳コンテナにおいては、左格子板及び右格子板(4)は、その下端に設けたU字環を係合穴に挿入する構成のものであり、該U字環は、常に重力によって、抜脱する方向の負荷がかかっていることから、輸送用折畳コンテナの使用中に、当該輸送用折畳コンテナを傾ける必要が生じた場合、作業者の操作等によって左格子板若しくは右格子板が底格子板から持ち上がって外れ、内容物をこぼしたり、破損することがあった。
【0005】
本発明は以上の事情に鑑みてなされたものであり、折畳んで積載する際における上段に積み上げられたコンテナと下段のコンテナが相対的に全水平方向にずれることがなく、安定して積重ねを行うことができ、折畳容易であるとともに使用時には不用意に格子板が外れることもなく、更には折畳まれた状態から使用時の組立を極めて容易とすることができる優れた輸送用折畳コンテナを提供することを、課題とするものである。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
四隅に脚部を備えた基枠と、該基枠上面に取付けた底格子板と、該底格子板の前後端を回動軸として連結される前格子板及び後格子板と、該後格子板の左右側端を回動軸として連結される左格子板及び右格子板とからなり、該左格子板及び右格子板の自由端を前記前格子板の両側端に一致させることにより箱状体とする輸送用折畳コンテナにおいて、左格子板及び右格子板の下端には、前方若しくは後方へ爪を延設してなる鉤部を設け、左格子板及び右格子板が、後格子板に対して上方にスライド可能な連結体によって連結されるとともに、該左格子板及び右格子板が前後方向に移動することで、底格子板を形成する金属製線材と、前記鉤部とが係脱可能に係止して、左格子板及び右格子板(持ち上がりを防止することを特徴とする輸送用折畳コンテナを、課題を解決するための手段とする。
【0007】
また、前記構成に加えて、前格子板及び後格子板の下端部を内側へ折曲若しくは湾曲して夫々曲底部(20)(50)を形成するとともに、脚部の最大幅を格子の単位幅寸法より小さくしたことにより、折畳み積載する際に、前記前格子板若しくは後格子板の格子内に各脚部が嵌り込み、全水平方向へのズレを防止したことを特徴とする輸送用折畳コンテナを、解決するための手段とするものである。
【0008】
【発明の効果】
本発明に係る輸送用折畳コンテナによれば、左格子板及び右格子板の下端には、前方若しくは後方へ延設された鉤部を設けるとともに、左格子板及び右格子板が、上方及び前後方向に移動することにより、底格子板の格子と、前記鉤部とが係脱可能に係止し、左格子板及び右格子板の持ち上がりを防止することができ、当該左格子板及び右格子板が不用意に外れることがないものとすることができる。
【0009】
また、同構成により、折畳時においては、左格子板及び右格子板を前方若しくは後方に移動させて、上に持ち上げることで、容易に当該左格子板及び右格子板を底格子板から取外すことができるとともに、鉤部が底格子板と接触しない状態で左格子板及び右格子板を折畳むことができることから、後格子板を後方へ倒すことなく、簡単に当該輸送用折畳コンテナを折畳むことができる。
【0010】
更に、後格子板の下端部を折曲して曲底部を設けるとともに、左格子板及び右格子板の後側最下端に格子の枡を形成しないものとしたことにより、折畳操作時に、後格子板に対して垂直に起立する曲底部と、左格子板及び右格子板とが接触することを防止し、より円滑に折畳操作を行うことができる。
【0011】
また、前格子板及び後格子板の下端部を内側へ折曲若しくは湾曲して夫々曲底部を形成するとともに、脚部の最大幅を格子の単位幅寸法より小さくして、折畳み積載する際に、積載時における下段のコンテナの前記曲底部に、積み上げられた上段のコンテナの各脚部が嵌り込む構成とした場合には、脚部に対して、前後方向及び左右のうち内側の一方向の計三方向に格子を構成する金属製線材が配置され、ズレを防止するストッパーとして機能し、左右のうち外側方向へは、他の脚部における内側方向の金属製線材がストッパーとして機能することから、積載時における上段に積み上げられたコンテナと下段のコンテナが相対的に全水平方向にずれることがなく、安定して積重ねを行うことができる。
【0012】

【0013】
本発明の実施例1に係る輸送用折畳コンテナは、図1乃至図6に示すように、長手方向に連続する溝64を形成した外枠61を二本平行して左右に配置し、該二本の外枠61の間に相互に平行する三本の内枠62を架橋し、更に、外枠61の端部近傍の下面に脚部60を設けて構成した基枠6と、該基枠6の上部に溶着される底格子板1と、該底格子板1の前後端を回動軸として夫々金属製薄板を巻いた形状とした連結金具8aで連結される前格子板2及び後格子板5と、後格子板5の左右側端を回動軸として連結金具8bで連結される左格子板3及び右格子板4とからなるものである。
【0014】
製造時においては、図4に示すように、連結された左格子板3、後格子板5、右格子板4を順次底格子板1に取り付け、図7に示すように、該左格子板3及び右格子板4の自由端を前記前格子板2の両側端に一致させることにより箱状体とした構成を有するものであり、図6にも示すように、基枠6に対して平面視斜めに交叉するように、底格子板1の下側四隅位置には、前記基枠6の端部及び底格子板1の金属製線材に対して案内枠7を固着し、また、外枠61の四隅下部には、脚部60が固着された構成である。尚、底格子板1、前格子板2、後格子板5、右格子板4、左格子板3は、いずれも、金属製線材の格子で形成される板状体である。
【0015】
前格子板2は、上部格子板24の下端と下部格子板25の上端をコイルバネ21及び連結金具8cで連結し、該コイルバネ21を軸として下部格子板25に対して上部格子板24が回動するものとし、上部格子板24及び下部格子板25の左右には、左格子板3及び右格子板4の前側縁部の中央部及び上部に設けられたU字環31a、41aとともに当該前格子板2を固定するためのロック装置22が取付けられている。該ロック装置22は、格子からなる輸送用折畳コンテナにおいて一般的に使用されるもので、前格子板2を固定するためのロック杆23と該ロック杆23に一体に取付けられる把持部と、把持部を固定するための固定手段とを備え、左格子板3及び右格子板4の前記U字環31a、41aを前格子板2の格子内に通した後、ロック装置22のロック杆23を前記U字環31a、41aに通し、該ロック杆23の把持部を固定手段により固定することにより、前格子板2を左格子板3及び右格子板4と連結状態で保持するものである。U字環31a、41aは、前格子板2の格子内に通す際に、該U字環31a、41aを構成する金属製線材の側面と前格子板2の格子を構成する金属製線材の側面とが接触することにより、当該金属製線材相互の反発弾性力及び摩擦抵抗によって、U字環31a、41aと前格子板2の格子とを固定するものである。
【0016】
また、前記前格子板2における下部格子板25の下端側は後方向へ直角に折曲した曲底部20を形成しており、当該折曲により組立時に後格子板5が底格子板1上で容易に垂直に起立できるものとしている。該前格子板2は、図6に示すように、前記最下端部の金属製線材94を、底格子板1における最も前側の縁部位置となる金属製線材10ではなく、縁部位置よりも内側となる金属製線材11に対して、連結金具8aを用いて、回動可能に連結している。
【0017】
後格子板5においても、詳細な図示は省略するが、前記前格子板2と同様に、その下端側を前側へ直角に折曲して曲底部50を形成した構成としており、その最下端部の金属製線材を、底格子板1における最も後側の縁部位置となる金属製線材ではなく、縁部位置よりも内側となる金属製線材に対して、連結金具8aを用いて、回動可能に連結している。
【0018】
このように底格子板1の縁部より内側の金属製線材に対して、前格子板2及び後格子板5を取付けることによって、曲底部20が底格子板1上に当接することが、前格子板2及び後格子板5が垂直に起立する状態とすることができる。
【0019】
左格子板3及び右格子板4は、前記したように、当該左格子板3及び右格子板4の前側縁部の中央部及び上部に、前格子板2との連結を目的としてU字環31a、41aを設けるとともに、、左格子板(3)及び右格子板(4)の下端には、金属製線材によって後向きに爪を形成した鉤部30、40を形成しており、該鉤部30、40の根元は前記左格子板3及び右格子板4に固着したものとしている。
【0020】
即ち、左格子板3及び右格子板4の下端に設けられる連結手段として、U字環31a、41aには、常に重力によって抜脱する方向の負荷がかかっており、U字環31a、41aに対して接触する金属製線材の弾性反発力及び摩擦抵抗による係止力では十分に固定する事ができず、当該輸送用折畳コンテナの使用中に、作業者の操作等によって左格子板3若しくは右格子板4が底格子板1から持ち上がって外れ、内容物を溢したり破損する虞があることから、これを排除するものであり、本発明においては、左格子板3及び右格子板4の下端部に固着され、且つ底格子板1の金属製線材に係止可能な鉤部30、40と、該鉤部30、40を係脱するための左格子板3及び右格子板4の移動機構を具備することによって当該輸送用折畳コンテナの使用時に左格子板3若しくは右格子板4が底格子板1から不用意に外れないものとしている。
【0021】
左格子板3及び右格子板4の移動機構は、後格子板5がその下端部を軸として前側へ僅かに倒れるように回動することと、後格子板5に対して、左格子板3及び右格子板4が上方にスライドすることの組合わせによるものである。
【0022】
当該左格子板3及び右格子板4の上下方向のスライドは、単位格子寸法よりも長さ寸法の小さい連結金具8bを用いることによって可能とするものであり、通常状態では連結金具8bは、重力によりその下端が緯線となる金属製線材の上側面に当接する位置にあり、該連結金具8bの上端には金属製線材は当接していないが、連結金具8bの上端が一つ上側の緯線となる金属製線材に当接する位置まで、左格子板3若しくは右格子板4を持ち上げることができ、これに併せて、後格子板5を前方へ倒すように回動操作することにより、左格子板3及び右格子板4の鉤部30、40を移動させることができる。このようにして、鉤部30、40を外枠61の溝64内であって、且つ底格子板1の格子間となる位置に差し込み、後格子板5の曲底部50を底格子板1上に当接させるように回動操作を元に戻すと、図7に示すように、後格子板5が底格子板1に対して垂直になるとともに、前記左格子板3及び右格子板4の鉤部30、40が、底格子板1の左右方向に設けられた金属製線材に係止する構成である。
【0023】
また、左格子板3及び右格子板4における鉤部30、40と底格子板1の金属製線材とを係合させるために、前記左格子板及び右格子板を前後方向へスライドさせるために、後格子板の金属製線材と、右格子板若しくは左格子板の金属製線材を連結した状態で、図20に示すように連結金具内に隙間(いわゆる「遊び」)を形成するものとして、左格子板3及び右格子板4が前方へスライドされると、図21に示すように、前記隙間の分だけ後格子板の金属製線材と、右格子板若しくは右格子板の金属製線材とが近づく距離だけ、スライド距離を得ることができる。
【0024】
尚、本実施例1においては、これに加えて、左格子板3及び右格子板4の下端にも底格子板1との連結を目的としてU字環31b、41bを設けている。
【0025】
また、左格子板3及び右格子板4のいずれにおいても、後側最下端となる部分には金属製線材による桝目を形成しないものとしている。当該構成とすることにより、各格子板相互の撓み等により、後格子板5の曲底部50と、左格子板3及び右格子板4との接触により折畳操作を円滑に行えなくなることを防止するためである。
【0026】
以上の構成を有する本発明の実施例1について、図11乃至図18の格子板相互の関係のみを示した簡略図、及び図19の鉤部40と底格子板との関係を示した説明図を用いて、使用時における折畳状態からの輸送用折畳コンテナの組立を説明する。
【0027】
先ず、図11に示す折畳まれた輸送用折畳コンテナにおける前格子板2の上部格子板24を前側で倒した状態として前格子板2を起こす。図12に示すように前格子板2は、下端に曲底部20が形成されているため、底格子板1上に起立した状態が保持される。
【0028】
次いで、相互に連結された後格子板5、左格子板3、右格子板4を図13に示すように起こし、その状態から、図14に示すように、左格子板3及び右格子板4を上へスライドさせる。
【0029】
ここで、図19に右格子板における鉤部40と底格子板との関係を示すように、左格子板3及び右格子板4の下端に設けたU字環31b、41bと鉤部30、40を、外枠61の溝64上に位置する底格子板1の左右端側の格子内を通じて前記溝内に挿入すべく、図15に示すように、下方へ左格子板3及び右格子板4を下ろし、次いで、前記左格子板3及び右格子板4を図16に示すように後方にスライドさせながら、底格子板1の金属製線材に前記鉤部30、40を係止させる。
【0030】
最後に前格子板2の上部格子板24を起こすとともに、前格子板2の左右縁部に設けたロック装置22と、左格子板3及び右格子板4の前側端部の中央部及び上部に設けられたU字環31a、41aとを連結する。
【0031】
組立てられた当該輸送用折畳コンテナの折畳作業は、上記手順の逆によって、行うことができる。即ち、組立てた輸送用折畳コンテナを折畳む作業は、先ず、前格子板2の左右縁部に設けたロック装置22と、左格子板3及び右格子板4の前側端部の中央部及び上部に設けられたU字環31a、41aとを取外し、上部格子板を前方へ折畳み、次いで、左格子板3及び右格子板4を前方へスライドさせて金属製線材と鉤部30、40との係合を解いた上で、上方に前記左格子板3及び右格子板4を持ち上げることにより、底格子板1から左格子板3及び右格子板4を取外す。
【0032】
そして、左格子板3及び右格子板4を後格子板5に前方から重合した後、当該後格子板、左格子板及び右格子板を前方へ倒して折畳み、最後に、前格子板を後方へ倒して折畳むものである。従って、後格子板を後方へ傾斜させることもなく、簡単に折畳むことができる。
【0033】
尚、底格子板1の下部に設けた案内枠7は、フォークリフトの先端を当該輸送用折畳コンテナの各脚部60の間に差し込む際に、フォークリフトの先端が直接脚に当たらず、脚部60の間に案内することで、脚部60の変形を防止するためのものである。
【0034】
また、前格子板2及び後格子板5の下端部を内側へ折曲して夫々曲底部20、50を形成するとともに、脚部60の最大幅を格子の単位幅寸法より小さくしている。
【0035】
脚部60は、図10にも示すように、その下端部は、接地に適した平面状の踵部65と、該踵部65に連続して窪んだ掛止部66とを備えており、図8及び図9に示すように、折畳み積載する際に、積載時における下段のコンテナの前記曲底部20、50に、積み上げられた上段のコンテナの各脚部60の踵部65が嵌り込む構成とした場合には、脚部60に対して、左右方向及び前後のうち内側の一方向の計三方向に格子を構成する前格子板2又は後格子板3の金属製線材90、91、92が配置されることとなり、ズレを防止するストッパーとして機能することとなる。
【0036】
尚、脚部60に対して格子が配置されない外側方向へは、他の脚部60における内側方向の金属製線材90がストッパーとして機能することとなることから、結局、積載時における上段に積み上げられたコンテナと下段のコンテナが相対的に全水平方向にずれることがなく、安定して積重ねを行うことができることとなる。
【0037】
また、本実施例1においては、折畳時に、左格子板3及び右格子4の上に載置した際に、後格子板5の曲底部50を前記左格子板及び右格子板の積重ね高さ寸法より小さくすることにより、後格子板5が前記左格子板3及び右格子板4の上に載置された状態で接地面に対して水平とすることができ、これによって、複数の折畳状態の当該輸送用折畳コンテナを、前後左右の向きを同一方向に揃えて、安定して積重ねることができる。
【0038】
尚、本発明においては、実施例1における鉤部30、40をU字環31b、41bと、またU字環31b、41bを鉤部30、40として、夫々の配置を入れ替えることもできる。
【0039】
次に、本発明の実施例2に係る輸送用折畳コンテナは、図22及び図23に示すように、基本構成及び組立、使用方法において、実施例1と同様のものであり、左格子板3及び右格子板4の下端の構成が相違するものである。即ち、当該実施例2に係る輸送用折畳コンテナは、図23に示すように、実施例1における左格子板3及び右格子板4の下端に設けたU字環31b、41bに代えて、鉤部30、40を取付けた構成としたものである。
【0040】
また、図22及び23に示すように、本実施例2に係る輸送用折畳コンテナの前格子板2及び後格子板5における曲底部20、50に、当該前格子板2及び後格子板5の捩れを防止するための補強線材26、51を溶接している。
【0041】
本実施例2に係る輸送用折畳コンテナは、当該構成によって、合計四箇所で、底格子板1の金属製線材に前記鉤部30、40を係止させることとなることから、前記実施例1における種々の効果に加えて、左格子板3及び右格子板4の持ち上がり防止機能を、より一層、向上させることができ、更に優れた輸送用折畳コンテナとすることができる。
【0042】
尚、本発明における連結体としては、上記実施例1及び2に開示した金属製部材によって形成される連結金具8a、8b、8cの他、合成樹脂製の環体を使用することもできる。
【0043】
また、曲底部20、50は、前格子板2若しくは後格子板5を折曲して形成するほか、湾曲して設けることもできる。本実施例1及び2のように折曲により曲底部20、50を形成する場合は、底格子板1に対して起立した前記前格子板2若しくは後格子板5が不用意に倒れ難い点において、優れたものとすることができる。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to an improvement in a transportable foldable container that accommodates various components, trays and cases containing the components, transports the components by a forklift or the like, and is foldable when not in use.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Hitherto, a foldable transportable foldable container formed by a metal grid is generally well known, for example, the invention disclosed in JP-A-6-56190, that is, on It has a pair of left and right side frames and front and rear frames that are freely foldable, and forms a right-angled bent part on one of the adjacent edges of the front and rear frames and the side frame to avoid corners during assembly A foldable container (hereinafter referred to as Prior Art 1) configured to connect the front and rear frames and the side frames, and the invention disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 5-19193, that is, the underframe and the underframe A container having a lattice-shaped bottom plate attached to the upper surface of the bottom plate, two lattice-shaped front and rear walls and two lattice-shaped left and right side walls erected on the periphery of the bottom plate, wherein at least one of the wall members is provided. The lower half of the wall from the middle position in the height direction of the wall to the bottom plate And forming an opening that opens. At an upper end of the opening, a lock means for rotatably supporting a door for opening and closing the opening and for locking and unlocking the door at a closed position of the opening is provided. 2. Description of the Related Art Foldable containers for transportation (hereinafter, referred to as prior art 2) are known.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The transportable foldable container according to the prior art 1 is intended to prevent the container loaded in the upper stage from being shifted with respect to the container in the lower tier when the container is loaded in a folded state. It is not intended to prevent displacement of the container, but is performed only in the left-right direction. On the other hand, the displacement of the container that actually occurs is caused by external forces from various directions. It was almost impossible to prevent.
[0004]
On the other hand, in the folding container for transport according to Prior Art 2, the left lattice plate and the right lattice plate (4) have a configuration in which a U-shaped ring provided at a lower end thereof is inserted into an engagement hole. Since the U-shaped ring is always subjected to a load in the direction of pulling out due to gravity, if it becomes necessary to tilt the transportable folding container during use of the transportable folding container, In some cases, the left or right lattice plate was lifted off the bottom lattice plate due to the above operation, and the contents were spilled or damaged.
[0005]
The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and the container stacked in the upper stage and the container in the lower stage during folding and stacking do not relatively shift in the entire horizontal direction, and the stacking is stably performed. An excellent transport fold that is easy to fold, does not inadvertently come off the grid plate during use, and is extremely easy to assemble when folded from use. The challenge is to provide containers.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
A base frame having legs at four corners, a bottom grid plate attached to the upper surface of the base frame, a front grid plate and a rear grid plate connected with the front and rear ends of the bottom grid plate as pivot axes, and the rear grid A left lattice plate and a right lattice plate that are connected with the left and right ends of the plate as pivot axes, and the free ends of the left lattice plate and the right lattice plate are aligned with both side edges of the front lattice plate to form a box. At the lower end of the left lattice plate and the right lattice plate, a hook portion formed by extending claws forward or backward is provided at the lower end of the left lattice plate and the right lattice plate. The left lattice plate and the right lattice plate move in the front-rear direction while being connected to the metal member forming the bottom lattice plate, and the hooks are engaged with each other. Left grid plate and right grid plate (removably locked to prevent lifting) Containers, and means for solving the problems.
[0007]
In addition to the above configuration, the lower ends of the front lattice plate and the rear lattice plate are bent or curved inward to form curved bottoms (20) and (50), respectively, and the maximum width of the leg is set to the unit of the lattice. By making the width smaller than the width, each leg fits in the lattice of the front lattice plate or the rear lattice plate when folded and loaded, thereby preventing displacement in all horizontal directions. Tatami containers are the means to be solved.
[0008]
【The invention's effect】
According to the folding container for transport according to the present invention, a hook portion extending forward or rearward is provided at the lower end of the left lattice plate and the right lattice plate, and the left lattice plate and the right lattice plate are upward and By moving in the front-rear direction, the lattice of the bottom lattice plate and the hooks are releasably locked, and the left lattice plate and the right lattice plate can be prevented from being lifted. The grid plate can be prevented from accidentally coming off.
[0009]
In addition, by the same configuration, when folding, the left and right lattice plates are moved forward or backward and lifted up, so that the left and right lattice plates are easily removed from the bottom lattice plate. Since the left lattice plate and the right lattice plate can be folded in a state in which the hooks do not contact the bottom lattice plate, the transport folding container can be easily folded without turning the rear lattice plate backward. Can be folded.
[0010]
Further, by bending the lower end portion of the rear lattice plate to provide a curved bottom portion and not forming a lattice cell at the rear lowermost ends of the left lattice plate and the right lattice plate, the rear lattice plate can be folded at the time of folding operation. It is possible to prevent the bent bottom standing vertically with respect to the lattice plate from contacting with the left lattice plate and the right lattice plate, and to perform the folding operation more smoothly.
[0011]
In addition, the lower ends of the front lattice plate and the rear lattice plate are bent or curved inward to form curved bottoms, respectively, and the maximum width of the legs is made smaller than the unit width size of the lattice, so that when folded and loaded. In the case where each leg of the stacked upper container is fitted into the curved bottom portion of the lower container at the time of loading, the inner one of the front-rear direction and the left and right with respect to the leg is Metal wires constituting the lattice are arranged in a total of three directions, function as stoppers to prevent displacement, and in the outer direction of the left and right, the metal wires in the inner direction of the other legs function as stoppers In addition, the containers stacked in the upper stage and the containers in the lower stage during loading can be stably stacked without being relatively shifted in the entire horizontal direction.

[0013]
As shown in FIGS. 1 to 6, the transportable foldable container according to the first embodiment of the present invention includes two outer frames 61 each having a longitudinally continuous groove 64 arranged in parallel on the left and right sides. A base frame 6 formed by bridging three mutually parallel inner frames 62 between two outer frames 61 and further providing a leg 60 on a lower surface near an end of the outer frame 61; A bottom lattice plate 1 welded to the upper part of the frame 6, a front lattice plate 2 and a rear lattice plate 2 connected by connecting metal members 8a each formed by winding a thin metal plate around the front and rear ends of the bottom lattice plate 1 as rotation axes. It is composed of a lattice plate 5 and a left lattice plate 3 and a right lattice plate 4 which are connected by connecting metal fittings 8b around the left and right ends of the rear lattice plate 5 as pivot axes.
[0014]
At the time of manufacturing, as shown in FIG. 4, the connected left lattice plate 3, rear lattice plate 5, and right lattice plate 4 are sequentially attached to the bottom lattice plate 1, and as shown in FIG. And the free end of the right lattice plate 4 is made to match the both ends of the front lattice plate 2 to form a box-like body. As shown in FIG. At the lower four corners of the bottom lattice plate 1, the guide frame 7 is fixed to the end of the base frame 6 and the metal wire of the bottom lattice plate 1 so as to cross diagonally. The legs 60 are fixed to the lower corners of the four corners. Each of the bottom lattice plate 1, the front lattice plate 2, the rear lattice plate 5, the right lattice plate 4, and the left lattice plate 3 is a plate-like body formed of a lattice of metal wires.
[0015]
The front lattice plate 2 connects the lower end of the upper lattice plate 24 and the upper end of the lower lattice plate 25 with a coil spring 21 and a connection fitting 8c, and the upper lattice plate 24 rotates about the coil spring 21 with respect to the lower lattice plate 25. On the left and right sides of the upper lattice plate 24 and the lower lattice plate 25, the front lattices are provided together with U-shaped rings 31a and 41a provided at the center and upper portions of the front side edges of the left lattice plate 3 and the right lattice plate 4. A locking device 22 for fixing the plate 2 is mounted. The lock device 22 is generally used in a transportable foldable container including a lattice, and includes a lock rod 23 for fixing the front lattice plate 2 and a grip unit integrally attached to the lock rod 23. After the U-shaped rings 31a and 41a of the left lattice plate 3 and the right lattice plate 4 are passed through the lattice of the front lattice plate 2, the locking rod 23 of the lock device 22 is provided. Are passed through the U-shaped rings 31a, 41a, and the gripping portion of the lock rod 23 is fixed by fixing means, thereby holding the front lattice plate 2 in a connected state with the left lattice plate 3 and the right lattice plate 4. . When the U-shaped rings 31a and 41a are passed through the lattice of the front lattice plate 2, the side surfaces of the metal wires constituting the U-shaped rings 31a and 41a and the side surfaces of the metal wires constituting the lattice of the front lattice plate 2 The U-shaped rings 31a, 41a and the lattice of the front lattice plate 2 are fixed by the repulsive elasticity and frictional resistance of the metal wires when the metal wires come into contact with each other.
[0016]
Further, the lower end of the lower lattice plate 25 in the front lattice plate 2 forms a bent bottom portion 20 which is bent at a right angle in the rearward direction. It should be easy to stand upright. As shown in FIG. 6, the front lattice plate 2 is configured such that the metal wire 94 at the lowermost end is not the metal wire 10 which is the frontmost edge position in the bottom lattice plate 1, but is located at a position closer to the edge position. It is rotatably connected to the metal wire 11 on the inside by using a connection fitting 8a.
[0017]
Although not shown in detail, the rear lattice plate 5 also has a configuration in which, as in the case of the front lattice plate 2, the lower end is bent at a right angle to the front side to form a curved bottom portion 50, and the lowermost end is formed. The metal wire of the above is rotated not by the metal wire at the rearmost edge position of the bottom lattice plate 1 but by the metal fittings inside the edge position using the connecting metal fitting 8a. Connected as possible.
[0018]
By attaching the front lattice plate 2 and the rear lattice plate 5 to the metal wire rod inside the edge of the bottom lattice plate 1 as described above, it is possible to prevent the curved bottom portion 20 from abutting on the bottom lattice plate 1. The lattice plate 2 and the back lattice plate 5 can be in a state of standing vertically.
[0019]
As described above, the left lattice plate 3 and the right lattice plate 4 are provided at the center and upper portions of the front side edges of the left lattice plate 3 and the right lattice plate 4 for the purpose of connecting with the front lattice plate 2 for the purpose of U-ring. 31a, 41a are provided, and hooks 30, 40 are formed at the lower ends of the left grid plate (3) and the right grid plate (4) with hooks 30, 40 formed with metal wires in the rearward direction. The bases of the base plates 30 and 40 are fixed to the left grid plate 3 and the right grid plate 4.
[0020]
That is, as the connecting means provided at the lower ends of the left lattice plate 3 and the right lattice plate 4, the U-shaped rings 31a and 41a are always loaded in the direction of pulling out by gravity, and are applied to the U-shaped rings 31a and 41a. The metal wire rod that comes into contact with the metal wire cannot be sufficiently fixed by the elastic repulsive force and the locking force due to frictional resistance. The right grid plate 4 is lifted off the bottom grid plate 1 and may come off and overflow the contents or may be damaged. This is excluded. In the present invention, the left grid plate 3 and the right grid plate 4 are removed. Hooks 30 and 40 fixed to the lower end of the bottom grid plate and capable of being locked to the metal wire rod of the bottom grid plate 1, and a left grid plate 3 and a right grid plate 4 for engaging and disengaging the hook portions 30 and 40. By providing a moving mechanism, the folding container for transportation Left grid plate 3 or the right grid plate 4 is assumed without departing inadvertently from the bottom grid plate 1 during use.
[0021]
The movement mechanism of the left lattice plate 3 and the right lattice plate 4 is such that the rear lattice plate 5 pivots so as to slightly fall forward with its lower end as an axis. And the right lattice plate 4 slides upward.
[0022]
The sliding of the left lattice plate 3 and the right lattice plate 4 in the up-down direction is enabled by using the connection fitting 8b having a length smaller than the unit lattice dimension. Is located at a position where the lower end thereof is in contact with the upper side surface of the metal wire which becomes the weft, and the upper end of the connection fitting 8b is not in contact with the metal wire. The left lattice plate 3 or the right lattice plate 4 can be lifted up to a position where the left lattice plate 3 or the right lattice plate 4 is brought into contact with the metal wire rod. 3 and the hooks 30 and 40 of the right lattice plate 4 can be moved. In this manner, the hook portions 30 and 40 are inserted into the grooves 64 of the outer frame 61 and at positions between the lattices of the bottom lattice plate 1, and the curved bottom portion 50 of the rear lattice plate 5 is placed on the bottom lattice plate 1. When the rotation operation is returned to the original state, the rear lattice plate 5 becomes perpendicular to the bottom lattice plate 1 and the left lattice plate 3 and the right lattice plate 4 are moved, as shown in FIG. The hook portions 30 and 40 are configured to be engaged with metal wires provided in the left and right direction of the bottom lattice plate 1.
[0023]
Further, in order to engage the hook portions 30 and 40 of the left lattice plate 3 and the right lattice plate 4 with the metal wires of the bottom lattice plate 1, the left lattice plate and the right lattice plate are slid in the front-rear direction. In the state where the metal wire of the rear lattice plate and the metal wire of the right lattice plate or the left lattice plate are connected, a gap (so-called "play") is formed in the connection fitting as shown in FIG. When the left lattice plate 3 and the right lattice plate 4 are slid forward, as shown in FIG. 21, the metal wire of the rear lattice plate and the metal wire of the right lattice plate or the right lattice plate are separated by the gap. The sliding distance can be obtained only by the distance approaching.
[0024]
In the first embodiment, in addition, U-shaped rings 31b and 41b are provided at the lower ends of the left lattice plate 3 and the right lattice plate 4 for the purpose of connection with the bottom lattice plate 1.
[0025]
Further, in each of the left lattice plate 3 and the right lattice plate 4, a mesh formed by a metal wire is not formed at the rearmost lowermost portion. With this configuration, it is possible to prevent the bending operation from being performed smoothly due to the contact between the curved bottom portion 50 of the rear lattice plate 5 and the left lattice plate 3 and the right lattice plate 4 due to the deflection of each lattice plate. To do that.
[0026]
FIGS. 11 to 18 are simplified diagrams showing only the mutual relationship between the lattice plates, and explanatory diagrams showing the relationship between the hook portions 40 and the bottom lattice plate in Embodiment 1 of the present invention having the above configuration. The assembly of the transportable foldable container from the folded state during use will be described with reference to FIG.
[0027]
First, the front lattice plate 2 is raised in a state where the upper lattice plate 24 of the front lattice plate 2 in the folded transportation folding container shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 12, the front lattice plate 2 has the curved bottom portion 20 formed at the lower end, so that the front lattice plate 2 is maintained upright on the bottom lattice plate 1.
[0028]
Then, the rear lattice plate 5, the left lattice plate 3, and the right lattice plate 4, which are connected to each other, are raised as shown in FIG. 13, and from that state, as shown in FIG. Slide up.
[0029]
Here, as shown in FIG. 19, the relationship between the hook portion 40 and the bottom grid plate in the right grid plate, U-shaped rings 31b and 41b provided at the lower ends of the left grid plate 3 and the right grid plate 4 and the hook portion 30, As shown in FIG. 15, the left lattice plate 3 and the right lattice plate 40 are inserted downward into the grooves through the lattices on the left and right ends of the bottom lattice plate 1 located on the grooves 64 of the outer frame 61, as shown in FIG. Then, the hooks 30 and 40 are engaged with the metal wire of the bottom lattice plate 1 while sliding the left lattice plate 3 and the right lattice plate 4 backward as shown in FIG.
[0030]
Finally, the upper lattice plate 24 of the front lattice plate 2 is raised, and the locking devices 22 provided on the left and right edges of the front lattice plate 2 and the center part and the upper part of the front end of the left lattice plate 3 and the right lattice plate 4 are provided. The provided U-shaped rings 31a and 41a are connected.
[0031]
The folding operation of the assembled transportable foldable container can be performed by reversing the above procedure. That is, the work of folding the assembled transportable foldable container firstly includes the locking devices 22 provided on the left and right edges of the front lattice plate 2, the central portions of the front ends of the left lattice plate 3 and the right lattice plate 4, and the like. The U-shaped rings 31a, 41a provided at the upper part are removed, the upper lattice plate is folded forward, and then the left lattice plate 3 and the right lattice plate 4 are slid forward to form the metal wire and the hook portions 30, 40. Then, the left lattice plate 3 and the right lattice plate 4 are removed from the bottom lattice plate 1 by lifting the left lattice plate 3 and the right lattice plate 4 upward.
[0032]
Then, after the left lattice plate 3 and the right lattice plate 4 are superimposed on the rear lattice plate 5 from the front, the rear lattice plate, the left lattice plate, and the right lattice plate are folded forward to be folded. It is folded down. Therefore, the rear lattice plate can be easily folded without inclining backward.
[0033]
When the tip of the forklift is inserted between the legs 60 of the folding container for transport, the tip of the forklift does not directly hit the legs, and the guide frame 7 provided at the lower portion of the bottom lattice plate 1 does not directly contact the legs. By guiding between the legs 60, the legs 60 are prevented from being deformed.
[0034]
Further, the lower ends of the front lattice plate 2 and the rear lattice plate 5 are bent inward to form curved bottoms 20 and 50, respectively, and the maximum width of the leg 60 is made smaller than the unit width of the lattice.
[0035]
As shown in FIG. 10, the leg portion 60 has a flat heel portion 65 suitable for ground contact and a hook portion 66 that is recessed continuously from the heel portion 65, as shown in FIG. 10. As shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, when folded and loaded, the heel portion 65 of each leg 60 of the stacked upper container fits into the curved bottom portions 20 and 50 of the lower container during loading. In this case, the metal wires 90, 91, 92 of the front lattice plate 2 or the rear lattice plate 3 forming a lattice with respect to the leg portion 60 in one of the inner directions of the left-right direction and the front-rear direction. Is arranged, and functions as a stopper for preventing displacement.
[0036]
Note that, in the outward direction in which the lattice is not arranged with respect to the leg portion 60, the metal wire 90 in the inward direction of the other leg portion 60 functions as a stopper, and is eventually stacked on the upper stage at the time of loading. Thus, the stacked containers can be stably stacked without any relative displacement between the container and the lower container in the entire horizontal direction.
[0037]
In the first embodiment, the curved bottom portion 50 of the rear lattice plate 5 is placed on the left lattice plate 3 and the right lattice plate 4 at the time of folding. When the rear lattice plate 5 is placed on the left lattice plate 3 and the right lattice plate 4, the rear lattice plate 5 can be made horizontal with respect to the ground plane by placing the rear lattice plate 5 on the left lattice plate 3. The folding containers for transportation in a tatami state can be stably stacked with the front, rear, left and right directions aligned in the same direction.
[0038]
In the present invention, the hooks 30, 40 in the first embodiment may be replaced with U-shaped rings 31b, 41b, and the U-shaped rings 31b, 41b may be replaced with the hooks 30, 40.
[0039]
Next, as shown in FIGS. 22 and 23, the transportable foldable container according to the second embodiment of the present invention has the same basic configuration, assembling, and usage method as in the first embodiment, and includes a left lattice plate. 3 is different from the lower lattice plate 4 in the configuration of the lower end. That is, as shown in FIG. 23, the transportable foldable container according to the second embodiment replaces the U-shaped rings 31b and 41b provided at the lower ends of the left lattice plate 3 and the right lattice plate 4 in the first embodiment. The configuration is such that the hook portions 30 and 40 are attached.
[0040]
Further, as shown in FIGS. 22 and 23, the front lattice plate 2 and the rear lattice plate 5 are provided on the curved bottom portions 20 and 50 of the front lattice plate 2 and the rear lattice plate 5 of the folding container for transport according to the second embodiment. The reinforcing wires 26 and 51 for preventing the twisting of the wire are welded.
[0041]
The folding container for transport according to the second embodiment locks the hooks 30 and 40 to the metal wires of the bottom lattice plate 1 at a total of four places by the configuration. In addition to the various effects of 1, the lifting prevention function of the left lattice plate 3 and the right lattice plate 4 can be further improved, and a more excellent folding container for transportation can be obtained.
[0042]
In addition, as the connecting body in the present invention, in addition to the connecting fittings 8a, 8b, 8c formed by the metal members disclosed in the first and second embodiments, an annular body made of a synthetic resin can also be used.
[0043]
The curved bottom portions 20 and 50 may be formed by bending the front lattice plate 2 or the rear lattice plate 5 or may be provided in a curved shape. In the case where the bent bottom portions 20 and 50 are formed by bending as in the first and second embodiments, the front lattice plate 2 or the rear lattice plate 5 standing upright with respect to the bottom lattice plate 1 is difficult to fall down carelessly. , Can be excellent.
