Description

  The present invention relates to a container for containing and transporting a roll product in which a strip such as a film, a sheet, paper, or a fabric is wound around a spindle.

  Conventionally, when transporting roll products in which strips such as films, sheets, paper, and fabrics are wound around a spindle (for example, a paper tube), the roll products are wrapped in a packaging sheet one by one for primary packaging. The roll products thus packaged were individually or in groups of several rolls and accommodated in containers made of wooden boxes or cardboard boxes.

  However, since conventional containers are configured by wooden boxes or cardboard boxes, there is a problem that roll products may be rubbed and damaged when a large number of roll products are stored together. ing. Therefore, it is necessary to perform primary packaging of roll products one by one before putting them into a wooden box or cardboard box, and there is a problem that the labor and time required for the packaging are enormous and the packaging material cost increases. In addition, when the weight of the roll product is large, when a plurality of roll products are stacked and stored in the container, the load of the roll product stacked on the roll product acts on the roll product underneath, and the product is There is also a problem that there is a risk of deformation.

  Furthermore, conventional containers made of wooden boxes and cardboard are difficult to reuse after being transported once, become disposable, and are not preferable from the viewpoint of effective resource use.

  In order to solve such a problem, a container capable of transporting a plurality of roll products while being independently held inside each other has been developed (see Patent Document 1). In this container, the end wall is constituted by a panel that can be divided, and a support hole into which a support shaft of the roll product is inserted is formed in a dividing line of the panel. And in order to prevent the edge part of a spindle from moving to an axial direction, the stopper member is being fixed to the panel.

However, in the container developed earlier, in order to lift the roll product, when inserting the lift rod into the shaft hole formed in the support shaft of the roll product, the stopper member becomes an obstacle, and the roll product There is a problem that the work of lifting is difficult.
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 11-130062

  The present invention has been made in view of such a situation, and it is easy to take in and out a roll product from a container using a lift, and moreover, it is possible to hold a plurality of roll products independently by holding them inside. An object of the present invention is to provide a roll product container in which even when a relatively heavy roll product is accommodated, there is little collapse of the product in the container, and the product is less damaged.

In order to achieve the above object, a container for transporting a roll product according to the present invention is:
A container for storing and transporting a roll product with a support shaft protruding from both ends,
A pair of side walls mounted on the pallet so as to face each other substantially parallel and substantially parallel to the support shaft;
A pair that is detachably coupled to the pallet and the side wall so as to face each other substantially parallel to each other and to be substantially perpendicular to the support shaft, and defines a space for accommodating a roll product inside the pair of side walls. End walls and
Each of the end walls has a lower panel and an upper panel that can be divided in the vertical direction, and a support hole that can be divided is formed on a dividing line between the lower panel and the upper panel. The end of the support shaft is inserted, and the roll product can be held independently in the container.
The lower panel and / or the upper panel is provided with a stopper member that limits the axial movement of the end of the support shaft that protrudes outside from the support hole,
The stopper member can be switched and moved between a position that restricts axial movement of an end portion of the support shaft that protrudes outside from the support hole and a position that does not restrict the stopper member.

  In order to accommodate the roll product in the container for transporting the roll product according to the present invention, first, a side wall is formed by standing a panel at a position facing each other on the pallet of the container. Next, a pair of lower panels constituting the end walls are erected substantially in parallel so as to face each other on the pallet so as to connect the end portions of the side walls.

  The lower half of the lower panel is formed with a lower half of a support hole that can be divided. On the lower half of the support hole, both ends of the support shaft protruding from both ends of the roll product are respectively placed. Then, an end wall is formed by combining the upper panel with the upper end of the lower panel along the dividing line. Accordingly, by holding the support shaft of each roll product in the plurality of support holes, each roll product comes into contact with other roll products or walls inside the container space surrounded by the side walls and the end walls. Without being held independently.

  Accordingly, the roll products do not come into contact with each other and rub against each other, and individual primary packaging can be omitted for each roll product, and materials and labor for the primary packaging can be omitted. In the present invention, since the support hole is divided by dividing the lower panel and the upper panel, the work for holding the both ends of the support shaft of the roll product in the support hole and the work for taking out from the support hole are easy and quick. Can be done.

  In particular, when a roll product is taken in and out of the container using a lift, the stopper member is moved to a position that does not restrict the axial movement of the end of the support shaft that protrudes outside from the support hole of the panel. The stopper member does not get in the way and the operation is easy.

  Moreover, since the container which concerns on this invention can attach and detach the pallet and the panel which comprises each side wall and an end wall, and can fold, the empty container after conveying a roll product is folded and returned small. And can be reused. Therefore, the transportation efficiency for return is improved, and waste that is disposed of is not generated, contributing to the reuse of resources. In addition, even when the container is not used, it can be stored in a small size, so that the storage space can be saved.

  Moreover, in this invention, after mounting the spindle of roll products on the lower half of a support hole, a stopper member can be moved and the axial direction movement of the edge part of a spindle can be restrict | limited. For this reason, it is possible to prevent the end of the roll product from coming into contact with the inner wall of the container without interposing a buffer member between the end of the roll product and the container wall, thereby effectively preventing damage to the roll product. can do. In addition, since the axial movement of the support shaft is limited by the stopper member, the roll product is also restricted from moving in the axial direction due to a change in the acceleration of the vehicle carrying the container. The acting acceleration impact force can be minimized. Also in this respect, it is possible to prevent the product from collapsing due to the bending deformation of the panel.

  In the present invention, preferably, the stopper member is released with respect to the lower panel and / or the upper panel at a position where the stopper member restricts the axial movement of the end portion of the support shaft protruding outside from the support hole. It further includes a fixture that can be fixed. By fixing the stopper member to the panel, the axial movement of the end portion of the support shaft can be limited.

  Preferably, an outer end wall is located outside the end wall and is detachably connected to the pallet and the side wall. By providing the outer end wall, the end wall of the container is doubled, the strength of the container is increased, and the end of the support shaft of the roll product can be prevented from being exposed to the outside of the container.

  Preferably, a slide groove into which each panel constituting the end wall is slidably inserted is formed inside both side end portions of the side wall. The panel can be easily attached to and detached from the side wall by slidingly inserting the panel into the slide groove.

  The roll product accommodated in the container according to the present invention is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include a roll product obtained by winding a belt-like object such as a film, sheet paper, or fabric around a support shaft. The support shaft is preferably made of metal from the viewpoint of strength, but the cross-sectional shape may be hollow or solid, but when a rod-shaped lift is used, a hollow support shaft is preferable. In general, the roll product is wound directly around the support shaft, but a belt-like object may be wound around a hollow winding shaft, and the support shaft may be inserted into the shaft hole of the winding shaft.

  According to the present invention, it is easy to take in and out a roll product from a container using a lift, and it is possible to hold a plurality of roll products independently and accommodate a relatively heavy roll product. Even when the container is accommodated, it is possible to provide a roll product container in which the collapse of the product in the container is small and the product is less damaged.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described based on embodiments shown in the drawings.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the roll product transport container 2 according to this embodiment has a pallet 8 at the bottom. The pallet 8 of this embodiment is formed with a lift hole 10 into which a forklift claw portion is inserted. The pallet 8 is preferably made of a metal such as stainless steel, but may be made of a material other than a metal such as plastic.

  On the pallet 8, a bottom plate 12 made of plywood or the like is placed. Further, at the four sides of the pallet 8, a pair of side walls 14, 14 facing substantially parallel to each other, and a pair of outsides facing both sides of the side walls 14, 14, and facing each other substantially parallel to each other. End walls 16 and 16 are detachably mounted. In this embodiment, the side walls 14 and 14 are erected on the pallet 8 so as to be substantially parallel to the support shaft 4 (see FIG. 4) of the roll product 6. Further, the outer end walls 16 and 16 are erected on the pallet 8 so as to be substantially perpendicular to the support shaft 4 of the roll product 6.

  On the pallet 8, the space surrounded by the side walls 14, 14 and the outer end walls 16, 16 becomes an internal space 18 for accommodating the roll product 6. In order to close the space 18 surrounded by the side walls and the external end walls, a rectangular lid 20 is detachably attached to the upper ends of the side walls 14 and 14 and the external end walls 16 and 16 by an upper stopper fitting 22.

  In the present embodiment, each side wall 14 and the external end wall 16 are each constituted by a single panel 15 and can be folded with respect to the pallet 8 by adopting a structure as will be described later.

  As shown in FIG. 1, slide grooves 60 are formed along the vertical direction on the inner side near both side ends of the side wall 14. Each slide groove 60 is constituted by a metal fitting or the like attached to the inside of the panel constituting the side wall 14. Both end portions of the inner end wall 40 are slidably inserted into the slide groove 60. Each end wall 40 includes an upper panel 42 and a lower panel 44 that can be divided at the position of the dividing line 35 as shown in FIG.

  The panels 42 and 44 are not particularly limited, but are preferably made of wood plywood. This is because the wood plywood has a relatively high strength, and even if it comes into contact with a roll product to be accommodated, the product is less damaged.

  In the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, lower metal fittings 24 are erected at the four corner positions on the pallet 8. A locking piece 26 having a substantially L-shaped cross section is fixed inside each lower metal fitting 24, and a vertical groove 28 extending in the vertical direction and a horizontal line extending in the horizontal direction so as to be continuous with the lower end portion of the groove 28. A groove 30 is formed.

  On the other hand, metal side end metal frames 32 are attached to both side ends of the panel 15 constituting the side wall 14 along the height direction. Each side end metal frame 32 has a function of reinforcing the panel 15. Each side end metal frame 32 is formed with a slide groove 34 into which both ends of the panel constituting the external end wall 16 shown in FIG. Further, a rotation projection 38 is provided at the lower end portion of the side end metal frame 32.

  As shown in FIG. 2, each rotation protrusion 38 is inserted along the vertical groove 28 of the lower metal fitting 24, and moved in the horizontal direction at the lower end portion of the groove 28 (arrow A in FIG. 2). The moving projection 38 is prevented from coming off upward by the locking piece 26. Therefore, the panel 15 constituting each side wall 14 is prevented from coming off upward with respect to the pallet 8, and in this state, the panel 15 is allowed to rotate in the inner direction B of the container 2. The rotation of the panel 15 to the outside of the container is limited by the panel 15 coming into contact with the lower metal fitting 24, the locking piece 26 and the belt-like metal fitting 36 fixed on the pallet 8.

  In this embodiment, the panel 15 which comprises the side wall 14 and the external end wall 16 is mounted | worn with respect to the pallet 8 so that folding or attachment is possible by employ | adopting the structure mentioned above.

  In the present embodiment, as described above, each end wall 40 attached to the inside of the outer end wall 16 is constituted by two panels 42 and 44 that can be divided and separated in the vertical direction at the position of the dividing line 35. . Moreover, as shown in FIG. 1, both end portions of the panels 42 and 44 are slidably inserted into a slide groove 60 formed inside the panel constituting the side wall 14. Therefore, the end wall 40 can be detachably assembled to the pallet 8 and the side wall 14 on the pallet 8.

  As shown in FIG. 3A, holding holes 46 that can be divided vertically together with the upper and lower divisions of the panels are provided on the dividing lines 35 that are the butted portions of the panels 42 and 44 constituting the end walls 40 in the horizontal direction. Are formed at predetermined intervals. In the present embodiment, three support holes 46 are formed for each dividing line 35. The number and arrangement interval of the support holes 46 are determined so that the roll products 6 accommodated in the container 2 do not interfere with each other. As shown in FIG. 4, both ends of the support shaft 4 protruding from both ends of the roll product 6 can be inserted and supported in each support hole 46. The inner diameter of the support hole 46 is preferably substantially equal to the outer diameter of the support shaft 4.

  In this embodiment, each panel 42 and 44 which comprises the end wall 40 is comprised with the wooden plywood, However, It is preferable that it is thicker than the thickness of the panel 15 which comprises the side wall 14. FIG. For example, when the thickness of the panel 15 is 9 mm, the thickness of the panels 42 and 44 is preferably about 18 mm. This is because the weight of the roll product 6 acts on the panels 42 and 44 via the support shaft 4. Further, it is preferable that a protective frame 48 is attached to the edges (including the parting line 35) of the panels 42 and 44. The protective frame 48 can be formed by applying and drying a synthetic resin such as polyester resin or ABS resin. Further, it is preferable that a protective frame 49 made of a rubber material or the like is attached around the support hole 46.

  The protective frame 48 is preferably attached so that the end portions of the panels 42 and 44 constituting the end wall 40 abut against each other along the dividing line 35 and along the slide groove 60 shown in FIG. This is because sliding is required, and slipperiness and durability that can withstand many uses are required. In addition, the protective frame 49 is also provided at the edge of the support hole 46 so that the support shaft 4 is elastically held by the support hole 46.

  As shown in FIGS. 3A and 4, in this embodiment, a stopper member 50 is pivotally movable in the direction of arrow C by a hinge 52 on the outer surface of the panel 44 positioned below the dividing line 35. It is attached. The stopper member 50 is a metal plate bent into the cross-sectional shape shown in FIG. 4, and has a long and narrow shape along the longitudinal direction of the panels 42 and 44 as shown in FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the stopper member 50 has a position (stopper position) that restricts axial movement of the end portion of the support shaft 4 that protrudes outside from the support hole 46 and a position that does not restrict (non-stopper position). , And can be rotated in the direction of arrow C. At the stopper position, the upper end of the stopper member 50 comes into contact with the tip of the support shaft 4 and closes at least a part of the tip opening of the shaft hole 4a of the support shaft 4.

  In the stopper position, the stopper member 50 is in a position to close at least the lower ends of the three support holes 46 as shown in FIG. A flange 54 is formed at each end of the stopper member 50, and a fixing hole 56 is formed in each flange 54. In the fixing hole 56, fixing pins (fixing tools) 58 mounted on both outer surfaces of the lower panel 44 are inserted at the stopper position, and the rotation of the stopper member 50 is restricted. The stopper member 50 is fixed.

  In order to accommodate the roll product 4 in the roll product transport container 2 according to the present embodiment, first, as shown in FIG. A side wall 14 is formed by standing a pair of panels 15 and 15 at positions facing each other. As a method for assembling the panels 15 and 15 on the pallet 8, the method shown in FIG.

  Next, the lower panel 44 is assembled between the side walls 14 along the slide groove 60 shown in FIG. The lower half of the lower panel 44 is formed with a lower half of a support hole 46 that can be divided. Before and after that, the engagement between the fixing pin 58 and the flange 54 shown in FIG. 3A is released, and the stopper member 50 is rotated downward as shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG. (Non-stopper position) Each end portion of the support shaft 4 of the roll product 6 is easily placed on the lower half of the support hole 46. Thereafter, the end of the support shaft 4 of the roll product 6 in which the lift rod 70 is inserted into the shaft hole 4 a is placed on the lower half of each support hole 46.

  Thereafter, the rod 70 is taken out from the shaft hole 4a, the stopper member 50 is rotated to the stopper position, the movement of the stopper member 50 is restricted by the fixing pin 58, and the support shaft 4 is moved in the axial direction. To prevent. Thereafter, when the upper panel 42 is combined with the upper end of the lower panel 44 along the dividing line 35, the inner end wall 40 is formed. At the same time, the three roll products 6 are accommodated in the space surrounded by the end wall 40 and the side wall 14.

  Thereafter, a pair of panels constituting the outer end wall 16 are mounted on the pallet 8 so as to face each other so as to connect the end portions of the side walls 14, 14. As described above, the attachment is performed according to the procedure shown in FIG. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 1, a rectangular lid 20 is detachably attached to the upper ends of the side walls 14, 14 and the external end walls 16, 16 by an upper stopper 22.

  In order to take out the roll product 6 from the inside of the container 2, the reverse operation described above may be performed.

  In the container 2 according to the present embodiment, the support shafts 4 of the respective roll products 6 are held in the three support holes 46 per one end wall 40, respectively. And the end wall 40 can be accommodated in an independently held state without contacting each other and without contacting the walls.

  Accordingly, the roll products 6 do not come into contact with each other and rub against each other, and individual primary packaging for each roll product 6 can be omitted, and materials and labor for primary packaging can be omitted. Moreover, in this embodiment, since the support hole 46 is divided | segmented by dividing | segmenting each panel 42 and 44, the operation | work which makes the support hole 46 hold | maintain the both ends of the spindle of the roll product 6, and the operation | work taken out from the support hole 46 Can be performed easily and quickly.

  In particular, when the roll product 6 is put in and out of the container 2 using the lift rod 70, the stopper member 50 is not disturbed by moving the stopper member 50 to the non-stopper position. Work is easy.

  Moreover, since the container 2 which concerns on this embodiment can detach the panel and pallet which comprise each side wall and an end wall, and can fold, the empty container 2 after conveying the roll product 6 is folded. It can be returned in small size for reuse. Therefore, the transportation efficiency for return is improved, and waste that is disposed of is not generated, contributing to the reuse of resources. Further, even when the container 2 is not used, it can be folded and stored in a small size, so that the storage space can be saved.

  Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the lower panel 44 is provided with the stopper member 50 that restricts the axial movement of the end portion of the support shaft 4 protruding outside from the support hole 46, so that the support in the container 2 is supported. The axial movement of the shaft 4 is effectively prevented. For this reason, it is possible to prevent the end of the roll product 6 from contacting the inner wall of the container without interposing a buffer member between the end of the roll product 6 and the container wall. It can be effectively prevented. Further, since the axial movement of the support shaft 4 is restricted by the stopper member 50, the roll product 6 is also restricted from moving in the axial direction due to a change in the acceleration of the vehicle carrying the container 2 and the wall. It is possible to minimize the acceleration impact force acting on the constituting panel. Also in this respect, the collapse of the product due to the bending deformation of the panels 42 and 44 can be prevented.

The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and can be variously modified within the scope of the present invention.
For example, the number of panels constituting each end wall 40 is two in the above-described embodiment, but may be three or more. Further, the number of holding holes 46 formed along the dividing line 35 of each end wall is not limited to three, and may be two as shown in FIG.
