2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, packing materials such as corrugated cardboard, styrofoam, and wooden frames are used for carrying building materials and equipment to the site according to the type of the materials. Since the material is originally manufactured for the purpose of carrying in only once, the original shape is rarely left after use,
At the site, the type and amount are enormous, and after use, they are all often treated as mixed waste. It is possible to reuse and recycle by separating packing materials that maintain their original shape on site, but the work is complicated and time-consuming, so it is not practical and is usually not used repeatedly. Intolerable.

The present invention has been made in view of the actual situation of conventional packaging materials, and proposes a reusable packaging material.

[0004]

According to the present invention, a specific form is given to a packing material, and a structure for maintaining the form is established, thereby establishing this as a dedicated container for carrying from a factory to a construction site. Enables repeated use and eliminates the need for disposal and separation after use.

[0005] There are two types of containers: a disassembled type that can be assembled and disassembled for each storage box for storing materials and equipment, and an integrated type that is large enough to store a plurality of storage boxes at the same time. It can be used depending on the type.

[0006] The container according to the first aspect of the present invention comprises a cart having casters attached thereto, and a plurality of storage boxes which are stacked on the cart and store materials and equipment, the periphery of which is located on the inner peripheral side of the periphery of the cart. A holding plate arranged between storage boxes vertically adjacent to each other, with a peripheral portion projecting outward from the periphery of the storage box,
It is composed of a connecting member which is arranged on the outer peripheral position of the storage box, between the carriage and the pressing plate, and between the pressing plates vertically adjacent to each other across the storage box, and connected to both.

[0007] The storage box and the holding plate are alternately placed on the trolley, and the connecting member connects the trolley, the holding plate, and the upper and lower holding plates to each other at the outer peripheral position of the storage box, so that the storage box vertically adjacent to the holding box is held. Are fixed to the carriage in a state where they are integrated with each other.

[0008] The plurality of storage boxes are sandwiched in the height direction by the holding plate, and are integrated with each other by a connecting member at an outer peripheral position in a restrained state, thereby being stabilized during transportation. It is protected by being sandwiched between the holding plates. At the site, the connection by the connecting material is released and disassembled in individual storage box units as they are,
Maintains its shape even after being transported from the factory to the site, and withstands repeated use.

The container according to the second aspect of the present invention is assembled in a box shape from a vertical frame and a horizontal frame, and includes a casing provided with casters, a storage box accommodated in the casing and accommodating materials and equipment, and a casing stand. It consists of a door that is supported on the surface so that it can be opened and closed about a vertical axis.

[0010] At least two vertical surfaces perpendicular to the vertical surface on which the door is supported, the casing is supported at the same time, and a pair of horizontal rails for guiding the entrance and exit are fixed at the same level. When it is opened, it is located on the same track as the horizontal rail, and a guide member for guiding the storage box in and out is fixed.

The storage box is moved in and out while being guided by the horizontal rails and the guide members. In the casing, the storage box is supported by the horizontal rails and is restrained from the surroundings, so that it is stabilized and protected.

The container is carried in a state in which a necessary number of storage boxes are stored in a casing, and after the materials and equipment are taken out, the container is directly reused.

In each of the containers according to the first and second aspects, the materials and equipment are stored in units of storage boxes and are carried in, so that the organization and management of the materials and equipment are facilitated.

1 is a perspective view of a container according to the present invention; FIG.
As shown in the figure, a trolley 2 with casters 21, a plurality of storage boxes 3 for storing materials and equipment, and a trolley 2
It is composed of a holding plate 4 stacked on top, a carriage 2 and a holding plate 4, and a connecting member 5 for connecting the upper and lower holding plates 4, 4, and can be assembled and disassembled for each storage box 3. As a constituent material of the container 1, a material having sufficient strength to withstand repeated use, such as iron or aluminum, is used, but the material is not limited.

The storage box 3 is assembled in a box shape from a flat bottom plate 31 and a side plate 32 surrounding the bottom plate 31 as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, and is fixed on the bottom plate 31 in parallel in one direction. The space on the bottom plate 31 is divided into a plurality of storage portions 34 by the partitioning plate 33 to be formed. A malt plane or other cushioning material 35 for protecting the equipment stored in the storage unit 34 is attached on the bottom plate 31 surrounding each storage unit 34, the inner peripheral surface of the side plate 32, and both surfaces of the partition plate 33. The cushioning material 35 is also attached to the adjacent side plate.
It is also stretched between 32 and partition plate 33, and between partition plates 33 and 33.
The material of the cushioning material 35 is not limited. The partition plate 33 can be moved in the width direction according to the materials to be stored.

The periphery of the storage box 3 is located on the inner peripheral side with respect to the periphery of the trolley 2. When the trolley 2 is plate-shaped, the flat area of the trolley 2 is equal to that of the connecting member 5 as shown in FIG. The connecting member 5 is installed at an outer peripheral position of the storage box 3. In the embodiment, the carriage 2 is formed in a plate shape that covers the entire bottom plate 31 of the storage box 3. However, since the carriage 2 may be connected to the holding plate 4 by the connecting member 5, a plurality of storages may be provided. As long as it has sufficient strength and rigidity to support the box 3, it may have the same shape as the holding plate 4 described later.

As shown in FIG. 2, the holding plates 4 are alternately stacked with the storage boxes 3 on the trolley 2, and the storage boxes 3 are restrained to the trolley 2 by the connecting members 5 while sandwiching the respective storage boxes 3.
Since the holding plate 4 sandwiches the storage box 3 in its peripheral portion and is connected to each other by the connecting member 5, the peripheral portion has a size protruding from the periphery of the storage box 3 to the outer peripheral side.
A plate having an area equivalent to the above may be used. However, as shown in FIG. 3, a plate having a width enough to accommodate the connecting member 5 may be connected in two directions.

As shown in FIG. 4, the connecting member 5 has a groove-shaped cross-sectional shape from pieces (flanges) 51, 51 overlapping the carriage 2 and the holding plate 4 and a piece (web) 52 connecting them. The trolley 2 and the pressing plate 4, and the upper and lower pressing plates 4 and 4 are disposed between the trolley 2 and the pressing plate 4 and between the pressing plates 4 and 4 vertically adjacent to each other with the storage box 3 interposed therebetween. The storage box 3 is fixed to the carriage 2 by being connected to each other by bolts and screws.

The height of the connecting member 5 is substantially the same as the height of the storage box 3, and the lower storage box 3 due to the load of the storage box 3 located above the connecting member 5 when the container 1 is assembled. It also has the role of preventing the action of compressive force on the box, maintaining the height of each storage box 3 and protecting the materials and equipment. In the embodiment, the upper storage box 3
In order to prevent deformation due to the load, a web 52 is inserted between the flanges 51 in two directions. A change in the scale of the equipment stored in the storage box 3 is dealt with by changing the height of the side plate 32 and the height of the connecting member 5.

In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the cart 2 is turned upside down, and the cart 2 is used as a cover on the uppermost holding plate 4. When the vehicle has an area to cover the vehicle, the carriage 2 as a cover plate is not required.

In the container 1 of the present invention, a required number of storage boxes 3 and a corresponding number of pressing plates 4 are stacked and transported from a factory to a site in a state where they are integrated by a connecting member 5.
Disassembled by unlinking the connecting material 5 at the site,
Used again and again after use.

The container 1 according to the second aspect of the present invention is assembled in a box shape from a vertical frame 61 and a horizontal frame 62, as shown in FIG. And a door 8 supported on one side of the casing 6 so as to be openable and closable about a vertical axis. It was done.

At least two vertical surfaces of the casing 6 perpendicular to the vertical surface on which the door 8 is supported, the horizontal bars 63 for supporting the storage box 7 and guiding the storage box 7 in and out are fixed in pairs at the same level. The door 8 has a storage box 3
The guide member 9 for guiding the entrance and exit of the vehicle is fixed.

As shown in FIG. 6, the door 8 is supported by brackets 10 and 10 fixed to the upper and lower portions of the casing 6 so as to be rotatable around a vertical axis, and the opening angle is restricted to 90 ° by a link or other stopper 11. Is done. When the door 8 is open, the guide member 9 is located on the same track as the horizontal rail 63,
In addition, it guides the storage box 7 in and out. The door 8 is locked to the casing 6 in the closed state.

In FIG. 6, the horizontal rail 63 is also fixed to the surface facing the door 8, but on the surface facing the door 8, it is only necessary to prevent the storage box 7 from falling off. It only needs to be fixed. If the distance between the horizontal bar 63 or the plate facing the door 8 and the guide member 9 is made equal to the width of the storage box 7, the guide member 9 restricts the movement of the storage box 7 in the width direction when the door 8 is closed. Has the role of

The storage box 7 is drawn in and out of the casing 6.
Since the vertical movement is restricted by this, it is sufficient that the material and the equipment are placed. In the embodiment, the ladder is formed to reduce the weight.

As shown in FIG. 5, the casing 6 is provided with a handle 12 for moving by hand and a hook 13 for lifting by a crane. Lifting of the container 1 is also performed by a forklift by using the bottom surface of the casing 6 floating on the floor by the casters 21.

Also in the present invention, a protective material made of the same material as the above-described cushioning material 35 is laid on the storage box 7 to protect the materials and equipment, and the upper and lower horizontal rails 63 and 63 and This can be dealt with by changing the interval between the guide members 9, 9 or by leaving an interval between the upper and lower storage boxes 7, 7 as shown in FIG.

The container 1 of the present invention can be used repeatedly without the need for assembling or dismantling because the equipment and materials are carried in only by taking the storage box 7 in and out.

[0030]

According to the first aspect of the present invention, the upper and lower holding plates alternately stacked on the trolley together with the storage box for storing the materials and equipment, and the holding plate and the trolley are connected to each other by the connecting material, so that the vertically adjacent storage boxes are provided. Are fixed to the trolley in a state where they are integrated with each other, so that the stability of the storage box at the time of transporting the container is secured, and the equipment and materials are protected.

At the site, when the connection by the connecting material is released, the storage boxes are disassembled into individual storage box units in their original shapes, and the storage boxes maintain their shape even after being transported from the factory to the site. Can be used, and the total cost is lower than using packaging materials.
The need for disposal and separation after use is eliminated.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, the storage box is put into and taken out of the box-shaped casing in units of storage boxes, and the casing is restrained from the periphery while being supported by the horizontal rails in the casing. And equipment and materials are protected.

At the site, the storage boxes are taken out of the casing for each storage box, so that the storage box maintains its shape even after being transported from the factory to the site, so that the storage box can withstand repeated use, and the packing material can be reduced. The total cost is lower than when used, and the need for disposal and separation after use is eliminated.

In both of the first and second aspects, since the equipment and materials are stored in storage boxes, the arrangement and management thereof are facilitated, and in the first aspect, the height of the connecting member is changed so as to be changed. By changing the distance between the horizontal rails and the storage boxes in 2, it is possible to cope with a change in the scale of the materials and equipment.
