Description

The present invention relates to a method for loading a long object on a long object pallet and a method for transporting a long object loading pallet to a transport container, and more particularly, without damaging various kinds and shapes of long objects. The present invention relates to a method for loading a long object on a long object pallet that can be transported stably and at a reduced transportation cost, and a method for transporting a long object loading pallet to a transport container.

Conventionally, as a method of transporting long objects (for example, steel pipe materials), many long objects are packed in wooden boxes, and the packed cargo is accommodated in a transport container (for example, a dry container), A method of transporting the transport container on land or sea is generally performed.
However, since the above conventional method employs a wooden box, it is necessary to use a large amount of wood, the wooden box itself is extremely expensive, and it takes time to manufacture the wooden box, and the overall transportation cost is reduced. There was a problem of soaring. In particular, in order to pack long objects having different lengths in the axial direction in a wooden box, it is necessary to stuff the wooden box, and the transportation cost has further increased. Further, in transportation using a wooden box, normally, a long object of about 9 tons is accommodated in a 40-foot dry container, and the loading efficiency on the transportation container is poor.

  Therefore, in order to solve the above problem, it is conceivable to use a long object pallet capable of loading a large number of long objects in place of the wooden box, and to transport the long objects at a low transportation cost. . As the pallet for long objects, a pallet main body and a column that is erected on both side edges of the pallet main body, and a long object that is stacked in parallel and stacked on the pallet main body by the column. Is known to prevent the collapse of the load (for example, see Patent Documents 1 to 3).

Here, as described above, when the long object pallet formed by loading the long object is accommodated in the transport container, the axial direction of the long object and the transport direction (for example, the longitudinal direction) of the transport container are the same. Therefore, when transporting the transport container, there is a risk that the long object will fly out in the axial direction and the long object or the transport container may be damaged. However, the above Patent Documents 1 to 3 do not disclose or suggest any means for preventing the loaded long object from jumping out in the axial direction. There was a risk of damage.
In Patent Documents 1 to 3, since a large number of long objects are stacked in contact with each other, when loading a long object on a long object pallet or transporting a transport container, etc. The long objects may be damaged by collision between the long objects, frictional contact, or the like.
There are various shapes of long objects to be transported, and in response to these, the emergence of means capable of preventing the long objects from jumping in the axial direction is desired.

Moreover, in the above-mentioned Patent Document 1, (1) the overhang provided on the side surface of the pallet can be lifted and transported so that transported cargo (long pallet) can be transported to the dry container at once. (2) A form in which the wire rope connected to the lower part of the pallet is pulled up by a forklift via a pulley (see FIG. 8 of Patent Document 1), etc. are disclosed. ing.
However, in the above-mentioned form (1), it is necessary to use a large and expensive stride, and there is a problem that the entire transportation cost is also increased. Further, in the form (2), there is a problem that the lower surface of the pallet and the stage and the floor surface of the transport container are brought into frictional contact, and the pallet, the stage, the floor surface of the transport container and the like are damaged.
Further, when a long object loading pallet is carried into a dry container, it is required to convey the long object loading pallet straight (maintaining straight movement). If this requirement is not satisfied, (a) a dry container The long object loading pallet loaded in a tilted state rubs against the inner wall of the dry container during the unloading (friction contact), and the unloading becomes extremely difficult. There was a problem that a long pallet, a pallet, a dry container, and the like were damaged due to an object loading pallet colliding with the inner wall of the dry container. However, the above-mentioned Patent Document 1 does not disclose or suggest any means for ensuring the straightness of the pallet when the long object loading pallet is carried into the dry container.
From the above, the emergence of a realistic transport method capable of transporting transported cargo (elongated article pallet) at a time to a dry container (particularly a 40-foot dry container) is desired.

The pop-out preventing member faces or abuts against the end face of the long object placed on the placing member. Therefore, when the pallet is transported or when the transport container is transported, the jump-out preventing member prevents the long object from jumping out in the axial direction. In addition, since long objects stacked in the vertical direction are partitioned by the mounting members and do not come into direct contact with each other, they are long when loading long objects on pallets, transporting pallets, transporting transport containers, etc. It can suppress that a long thing is damaged by collision, frictional contact, etc. of scales. Further, since the pop-out preventing member is provided on the mounting member, the pop-out preventing member is used regardless of the longitudinal cross-sectional shape (for example, the outer diameter) of the long object placed on the mounting member. It is possible to prevent the long object from jumping out in the axial direction. Further, long objects having different vertical cross-sectional shapes can be mixed and loaded on one pallet.
Further, when the pop-out prevention member is inserted between the pair of support posts and placed on the mounting member, the pop-up prevention member is inserted and dropped between the pair of support posts. Therefore, the work of loading long materials can be performed more quickly and easily.
Further, when the placing member and the pop-out preventing member are formed in an elongated shape and the support column has the first guide portion and the second guide portion, the placement member is guided by the first guide portion. The pop-up preventing member is placed on the placing member by being guided by the second guide portion. As described above, since the placing member and the pop-out preventing member are inserted and dropped between the pair of support columns, the loading work of the long material can be performed more quickly and easily.
Moreover, when the said support | pillar is made in the cross-sectional U-shape and has a guide groove and a guide piece, a mounting member and a pop-out prevention member can be guided more smoothly.
Further, when the pair of struts includes the first strut and the second strut, when the first and second long objects having different axial lengths are mixedly loaded, the first and second long objects Jumping out in the axial direction is prevented.
In addition, when the two pairs of the pair of first pillars and the pair of second pillars are arranged symmetrically in the front-rear direction from the center in the front-rear direction of the pallet body, the first different in axial length. When the second long object is mixedly loaded, the axial center positions of the first and second long objects can coincide with the center position of the pallet body, and the long object can be loaded with good balance. it can.
Moreover, when the mounting member is made of square material and the pop-out preventing member and the support column are made of steel material, the mounting member can exhibit a buffer function and more reliably prevent damage to the long material. At the same time, the strength of the entire pallet can be improved by the pop-out preventing member and the support column.
Moreover, when the above-mentioned mounting member has a horizontal movement prevention part, the movement to the horizontal direction of the elongate object mounted in the mounting member can be prevented more reliably.
In addition, when the transport container is a dry container, it is generally high in number, inexpensive, easy to secure, and transports long objects using a dry container with excellent airtightness. Can do.
According to the method for transporting the long object loading pallet of the present invention to the transport container, the long object is efficiently transported to the transport container using the transport means including the first lifting / lowering sliding device and the second lifting / lowering sliding device. be able to. In particular, it is possible to convey a long object loading pallet at a time while maintaining straightness with respect to a dry container (especially a 40-foot dry container).
According to another method for transporting a long object loading pallet of the present invention to a transport container, a long object is efficiently transported to the transport container by using a transport means having a relatively simple and inexpensive structure including a transport cart. can do. In particular, the long object pallet can be transported to a dry container (particularly a 40-foot dry container) at a time.
Further, when the guide tool is employed together with the transport cart, the long object pallet can be transported at a time while maintaining straightness with respect to the dry container (particularly a 40-foot dry container).

1. Pallet for long objects The pallet for long objects according to the present embodiment (hereinafter also simply referred to as a pallet) is a pallet that is accommodated in a transport container in a state where a plurality of long objects are juxtaposed and stacked. It is.

  As long as the “long object” can be stored in the transport container in a state of being loaded on the pallet, the type, shape, number, etc. thereof are not particularly limited. Examples of the long object include a pipe-like object, a solid bar-like object, a plate-like object, and an irregularly shaped object. In addition, examples of the cross-sectional shape of the long object include, for example, an annular shape, a circular shape, a polygonal ring shape (quadrangle, pentagonal ring, etc.), a polygonal shape (quadrangle, pentagonal shape, etc.), and a U-shape. Examples include a shape, an H shape, an L shape, and a different shape. Moreover, as a material of this elongate thing, steel materials, stainless steel materials, aluminum materials, plastic materials, glass materials, stone materials, wood, etc. can be mentioned, for example. Furthermore, examples of the shape of the long object include a shape extending linearly in the axial direction, a shape extending in a curved shape in the axial direction, and a shape in which an end portion in the axial direction is bent. it can.

  The “transport container” is not particularly limited in its structure, size, material, and the like as long as it can store the pallet loaded with the long object. This transport container usually has a rectangular floor surface, and its longitudinal direction is the transport direction of the transported object. Examples of the transport container include a dry container, a leafer container, an open top container, and a flat container. Of these, a dry container is preferred. This is because it is the most distributed, inexpensive and easy to secure. This dry container usually has a rectangular floor surface, and an opening is formed on one end side in the longitudinal direction.

  The pallet includes a pallet main body and a pair of support columns described below.

The structure, shape, material, etc. of the “pallet body” are not particularly limited. This pallet main body can be made into a plane rectangular shape by, for example, framing a number of long base materials in a lattice shape. In addition, a lower open space opened downward and in the front-rear direction can be formed below the pallet body, for example. This lower open space is mainly used as a space for inserting a transfer means described later, but can be used for any other purpose.
The “front-rear direction” indicates the front-rear direction of the pallet body, and means a direction that coincides with the axial direction of the long object loaded on the pallet. In addition, the “left-right direction of the pallet body” means a direction that coincides with the parallel direction of long objects loaded on the pallet.

As long as the “pair of struts” are provided at a predetermined interval in the parallel direction of the long object on the pallet body and at least two sets are provided along the axial direction of the long object, the structure, shape, The material is not particularly limited. Examples of the shape of each column include a pipe shape, a solid rod shape, a plate shape, and an irregular shape. In addition, examples of the cross-sectional shape of the support column include, for example, an annular shape, a circular shape, a polygonal ring shape (quadrangle, pentagonal ring, etc.), a polygonal shape (quadrangle, pentagonal shape, etc.), a U-shape, H-shape, L-shape, unusual shape, etc. can be mentioned. Among these, from the viewpoint of loading workability, it is preferable that each column has a U-shaped cross section. Moreover, as a material of this support | pillar, steel materials, stainless steel materials, aluminum materials, plastic materials, glass materials, stone materials, wood, etc. can be mentioned, for example. Of these, from the viewpoint of rigidity, it is preferable that each column is made of steel.
The “predetermined interval” means an interval that is arbitrarily determined according to the form (size, shape, etc.) of the pallet main body or long object. This point is similarly applied in the following description.

  Each of the columns includes, for example, a first guide part that guides a mounting member, which will be described later, inserted between the pair of columns in the vertical direction, and a jumping prevention member, which will be described later, inserted between the pair of columns. And a second guide part that guides in a vertical direction. As these 1st guide parts and 2nd guide parts, a guide groove, a guide slit, a guide piece, a guide protrusion, etc. can be mentioned, for example. As described above, when each support column has a U-shaped cross section, each support column preferably has a guide groove as a first guide portion and a guide piece as a second guide portion.

The pair of struts corresponds to, for example, a pair of first struts provided corresponding to the first long object and a second long object having a shorter axial length than the first long object. And a pair of second struts provided. In this case, two pairs of the pair of first support columns are disposed symmetrically from the front-rear direction center of the pallet body, and two sets of the pair of second support columns are disposed from the front-rear direction center of the pallet body. It is preferable to arrange symmetrically. This is because the center of gravity of each of the first long object and the second long object can be balanced with the center of gravity of the pallet so as to be balanced.
In addition, the above-mentioned “provided correspondingly” means that it is provided at a predetermined position of the pallet main body corresponding to at least both ends in the axial direction of the long object to be loaded.

  In the pair of columns, for example, the lower ends of the columns can be fixed to the pallet body by appropriate fixing means (screwing, clamping, welding, etc.). From the viewpoint of improving the rigidity of each support column, it is preferable that the pair of support columns have lower ends of each support column connected to both ends of a long connecting member. The connection form is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include screwing, clamping, and welding. Further, the structure, shape, material, and the like of the connecting member are not particularly limited, and as the structure of the connecting member, for example, the structure of the above-described support can be applied. From the viewpoint of loading workability, it is preferable that the connecting member has a U-shaped cross section. Moreover, it is preferable that a connection member is steel from a viewpoint of rigidity.

A plurality of mounting members are inserted between the pair of support columns.
The above “insertion” means a state in which both ends of the mounting member are inserted between a pair of support columns and positioned at a predetermined height position. This point is similarly applied in the following description.

  The “mounting member” is not particularly limited in structure, shape, material, and the like as long as the long object can be mounted. This mounting member is usually formed in a long shape extending in the parallel direction of the long objects. Examples of the shape of the mounting member include a pipe shape, a solid rod shape, a plate shape, and an irregular shape. In addition, examples of the cross-sectional shape of the mounting member include, for example, an annular shape, a circular shape, a polygonal ring shape (quadrangle, pentagonal ring, etc.), a polygonal shape (quadrangle, pentagonal shape, etc.), and a U-shape. Examples include a shape, an H shape, an L shape, and a different shape. Examples of the material of the mounting member include steel, stainless steel, aluminum, plastic, glass, stone, and wood. Among these, it is preferable that the above-mentioned mounting member is made of square material (polygonal timber) from the viewpoint that damage to a long object placed can be suppressed.

The above-mentioned mounting member can be mounted on a long object that has been loaded, for example, by inserting both ends of the mounting member in the longitudinal direction between the pair of support columns from above. Thereby, the workability | operativity of a long thing can be improved more.
For example, the lowermost mounting member is mounted on the connecting member that connects the pair of columns, mounted on the pallet body, or on the stopper member provided on each column. Or can be mounted on. Further, the uppermost mounting member has, for example, both ends in the longitudinal direction of the uppermost mounting member inserted between a pair of columns from above, and the uppermost mounting member Both end portions can be fixed to each column by appropriate fixing means (nailing, screwing, clamping, welding, etc.). Thereby, the rigidity of each support | pillar can be improved more.

  The above-mentioned mounting member can have a lateral movement prevention part which prevents the movement of the elongate object mounted in this mounting member to the horizontal direction, for example. This lateral movement prevention unit can be, for example, a separate member that is retrofitted to the mounting member, or can be an integral part of the mounting member. Examples of the shape of the lateral movement preventing portion include a pipe shape, a solid rod shape, a plate shape, and an irregular shape. Moreover, as a cross-sectional shape of this lateral movement prevention part, for example, an annular shape, a circular shape, a polygonal ring shape (quadrangle, pentagonal ring, etc.), a polygonal shape (quadrangle, pentagonal shape, etc.), Examples include a letter shape, an H shape, an L shape, and a different shape. Moreover, as a material of this lateral movement prevention part, steel materials, stainless steel materials, aluminum materials, plastic materials, glass materials, stone materials, wood, etc. can be mentioned, for example. Among these, from the viewpoint that damage to a long object can be suppressed, it is preferable that the lateral movement preventing portion is made of a square material that is nailed to the mounting member made of the square material.

  The above placement member is provided with a jump-out preventing member that prevents the long object placed on the above-described placement member from jumping out in the axial direction.

  The “projection preventing member” is not particularly limited in its structure, shape, material, and the like as long as it faces or abuts the end face in the axial direction of the long object placed on the placing member. Examples of the shape of the pop-out preventing member include a pipe shape, a solid bar shape, a plate shape, and an irregular shape. In addition, the cross-sectional shape of the pop-out preventing member may be, for example, an annular shape, a circular shape, a polygonal ring shape (quadrangle, pentagonal ring, etc.), a polygonal shape (quadrangle, pentagonal shape, etc.), Examples include a letter shape, an H shape, an L shape, and a different shape. In addition, examples of the material of the pop-out preventing member include steel materials, stainless steel materials, aluminum materials, plastic materials, glass materials, stone materials, and wood. Among these, from the viewpoint of workability for loading a long object, it is preferable that the jump-out preventing member is made of steel. On the other hand, from the viewpoint that damage to a long object can be suppressed, it is preferable that the jump-out preventing member is made of square bar.

  For example, the pop-out preventing member can be attached to the mounting member by appropriate fixing means (for example, screwing, nailing, clamping, etc.). From the viewpoint of workability for loading long objects, the pop-out prevention member is inserted between the pair of struts, with both ends in the lengthwise direction of the pop-up prevention member inserted from above. It is preferable to be placed on the above-described placement member. In particular, it is preferable that notches that are inserted and guided from above into guide pieces as second guide portions of the respective columns are formed at both ends of the pop-out prevention member.

The “pallet body” can be substantially the same as the size of the planar shape inside the transport container, for example, when it is 1, or when it is two or more, . Thus, when the pallet body is modularized (standardized) based on the length in the longitudinal direction of the floor surface of the transport container, fixing and releasing the pallet with respect to the transport container is minimized. can do. Moreover, when using combining 2 or more, the elongate thing of various axial lengths can be mixed suitably.
Here, “in the case of 1 alone, and in the case of 2 or more combined therewith, the one that substantially matches the size of the planar shape inside the transport container” means that the bottom surface of the pallet body is rectangular. In this case, the shape and size can be approximately the same as the bottom surface of the transport container. Moreover, the bottom face shape obtained by combining two or more main pallet bodies of various sizes and shapes can be set to a shape and a size that substantially match the transport container. In the pallet main body used in combination, for example, the shape of the pallet main body is such that the long side (or short side) of the floor surface of the transport container is divided into two equal parts, three equal parts, four equal parts, five equal parts, etc. can do. Similarly, a pallet main body having a size of 1/6, 2/6, 3/6 or the like, or a pallet main body having a non-equal size such as 2/5, 3/5 may be combined. In addition, a pallet main body is divided into six equal parts having the size of a floor surface that divides the long side direction into three equal parts and the short side direction into two equal parts, that is, a pallet that divides both the long side direction and the short side direction. You may combine a main body.

  The long object pallet may further include, for example, connection / release means for connecting / releasing the pallet body and the pallet body of another long object pallet. Thereby, connection or non-connection of a plurality of pallets can be appropriately selected according to the shape of the long object. As this connection form, the thing using screwing, fitting, engagement, connection, clamping, etc. can be mentioned, for example. For example, the connecting / releasing means can be disposed at a corner of the pallet body. Thereby, while being able to improve connection workability | operativity, the space efficiency of the mounting surface of a conveyed product can be improved.

2. Loading method of a long object on a long object pallet The loading method according to the present embodiment is a loading method of a long object on the long object pallet described above, and includes the steps [a] and [ b] process, and each [a] process and [b] process are repeatedly performed as needed.
Note that “repeated as necessary” means repeated according to the number of stacked long articles.

  As long as the step [a] is a step of inserting both end portions of the mounting member between the pair of support columns and positioning the mounting member at a predetermined height position, the positioning mode, timing, etc. Is not particularly limited.

  In the step [a], for example, when the mounting member is a lowermost mounting member, both end portions of the lowermost mounting member are inserted between the pair of columns, The lowermost placement member is placed on the pallet main body (for example, the connecting member) and positioned at a predetermined height position, and the placement member is a placement member other than the lowermost placement member. In some cases, both ends of the mounting member other than the lowermost stage are inserted between the pair of support columns, and the mounting member other than the lowermost stage is placed on the loaded long object. It can be a step of placing and positioning at a predetermined height position. Thereby, a mounting member can be inserted between a pair of support | pillars by insertion and dropping, and the loading operation | work of a long material can be performed more rapidly and easily.

  In the step [a], for example, when the mounting member is a lowermost mounting member, both end portions of the lowermost mounting member are inserted between the pair of columns, The mounting member for the lowermost stage is placed on the pallet body (for example, the connecting member) and positioned at a predetermined height position, and the mounting member described above is not for the lowermost stage or the uppermost stage. In the case of a mounting member, both ends of the mounting member other than the lowermost and uppermost stages are inserted between the pair of support columns, and the mounting members other than the lowermost and uppermost stages are inserted. Is placed on the long object loaded and positioned at a predetermined height position, and when the placing member is a placing member for the uppermost stage, between the pair of columns. Insert both ends of the uppermost mounting member so that the uppermost mounting member is moved forward with appropriate fixing means at both ends of the uppermost mounting member. Is fixed to each post can be a step of positioning at a predetermined height position. As a result, a mounting member other than that for the uppermost stage can be inserted between the pair of columns by insertion / dropping, and the loading work of the long material can be performed more quickly and easily. By fixing the mounting member, it is possible to improve the rigidity of each column, and thus the entire pallet.

  In the step [b], the long object is juxtaposed on the mounting member positioned at a predetermined height position, and the jumping prevention is performed on the mounting member positioned at a predetermined height position. As long as it is a step of providing a member and causing the protruding member to face or abut against the end face in the axial direction of the elongated object placed on the placing member, its parallel form, facing or abutting The form, each timing, etc. are not particularly limited. The execution order and timing of the parallel process and the facing or contacting process are not particularly limited. From the viewpoint of stacking workability, it is preferable that the facing or contacting process is performed after the parallel process is performed.

  In the step [b], for example, the long object is juxtaposed on the mounting member positioned at a predetermined height position, and both ends of the pop-out preventing member are disposed between the pair of support columns. Inserting the anti-projection member on the above-described mounting member positioned at a predetermined height position and placing it on the end face in the axial direction of the long object placed on the mounting member It can be a process of facing or abutting. Thereby, the pop-out preventing member can be inserted between the pair of support columns by insertion / dropping, and the work of loading the long material can be performed more quickly and easily.

3. Transporting long objects to transport containers (transport method 1)
The transport method 1 according to the present embodiment is a method for transporting a long object to a transport container using the above-described long object pallet. In this conveying method 1, a lower open space is formed below the pallet main body of the long object pallet, and a lower open space is formed by opening the lower side and the front-rear direction of the pallet main body. A first elevating / sliding device described below is prepared on the floor surface of the stage adjacent to the opening of one end of the container, and a second elevating / sliding device described below is prepared on the floor surface of the transport container at a predetermined position. The long object pallet formed by loading a plurality of the long objects is levitated between the first elevating / sliding apparatus and the second elevating / sliding apparatus from the floor surface of the stage or the transport container. It is characterized in that it is moved horizontally in a state where it is in contact.

  The “first elevating / sliding device” includes a first sliding body that horizontally supports a bottom surface of the lower pallet of the long object pallet, and a first elevating body that elevates and lowers the first sliding body. With. As this 1st sliding body, an endless belt, many rolling members (rolling ball, a roller, etc.), a sliding surface, etc. can be mentioned, for example. Of these, the first sliding body is preferably a plurality of rollers arranged in parallel. In addition, the first elevating body can include, for example, an expansion member that can be expanded by introducing air to push up the first sliding body.

  The “second lifting and lowering device” includes a second sliding body that supports the bottom surface of the long object pallet so as to move horizontally, and a second lifting body that lifts and lowers the second sliding body. With. Examples of the second sliding member include an endless upper belt, a large number of rolling members (rolling balls, rollers, etc.), and a sliding surface. Of these, the second sliding body is preferably a plurality of rollers arranged in parallel. In addition, the second elevating body can include, for example, an expansion member that can be expanded by introducing air to push up the second sliding body.

  The structure, shape, size, etc. of the “stage” are not particularly limited. Examples of the stage include (1) a form having a floor surface substantially the same level as the floor surface of the transport container placed on the floor, and (2) transport placed on the chassis of a vehicle such as a truck. The form etc. which have the floor surface of the substantially same height level as the floor surface of a container can be mentioned. In addition, examples of the stage include a stage dedicated to carry-in / out, a platform, and a slope. In addition, this stage supports, for example, a locking member that can be engaged with and disengaged from the corner metal fitting on the opening side of the transport container placed on the chassis of a vehicle such as a truck, and the locking member can be moved up and down. Therefore, it is possible to have a leveling mechanism including a guide rail for moving up and down and a lifting mechanism for lifting and lowering the locking member. As a result, the locking member locked to the corner fitting of the transport container is raised (or lowered) to push up (or push down) the transport container, and the floor surface of the transport container and the floor surface of the stage The height level can be matched easily and quickly. In this case, it is preferable to attach a leveling mechanism to an existing platform as a stage. This is because it can be configured simply and inexpensively. Moreover, this stage can have an attitude | position control means which controls the attitude | position of the floor surface, for example.

The horizontal movement of the pallet for long objects may be performed manually, for example, but is preferably automatically performed by a horizontal moving means as appropriate. As this horizontal movement means, for example, (1) a telescopic mechanism capable of pushing and / or retracting the pallet, (2) a conveyor mechanism capable of horizontally transferring the pallet, (3) a pulling mechanism using a wire, etc. (4) Examples include a mode in which the sliding body is appropriately driven by a driving source.
In addition, the second elevating / sliding device is usually displaceable between the floor surface of the stage and the floor surface of the transport container, and is on the floor surface of the stage before the long object is transferred. The second elevating / sliding device is displaced and prepared on the floor surface of the transport container, and after completion of the work of transporting the long object, the second elevating / sliding device on the floor surface of the transport container is displaced to displace the floor surface of the stage. It will be returned to the top. The displacement movement of the second elevating / sliding device may be performed by, for example, human power, but is preferably performed automatically by an appropriate displacement moving means. As the displacement moving means, for example, the configuration of the horizontal moving means can be applied.

(Conveying method 2)
The transport method 2 according to the present embodiment is a method for transporting a long object to a transport container using the above-described long object pallet. In this transport method 2, a lower open space is formed on the lower side of the pallet main body of the long object pallet, and a lower open space is formed by opening the lower side and the front-rear direction of the pallet main body. Preparing a transport carriage capable of traveling on a floor surface having a pallet support member for supporting the bottom surface and elevating means for raising and lowering the pallet support member, and loading the plurality of long objects on the transport carriage. The pallet support member lifted by the elevating means supports the bottom surface and floats the long pallet from the floor surface. In the floating state, the carriage is moved to move the pallet for long objects in the horizontal direction, and the pallet support member lowered by the elevating means releases the support of the bottom surface, and the pallet for long objects Characterized in that so as to put on the floor.

The “pallet support member” is not particularly limited in its structure, support form, or the like as long as it can support the bottom surface constituting the lower open space of the pallet for long objects. For example, the pallet support member can extend in the axial direction of the long object.
The “elevating means” is not particularly limited in its structure, elevating form, etc., as long as the pallet supporting member can be raised and lowered. Examples of the lifting means include an expansion / contraction mechanism, a jack mechanism, a link mechanism, a gear mechanism, and a cylinder mechanism. The elevating means includes, for example, an expansion / contraction member that expands / contracts by supply / discharge of a fluid {usually gas (especially, air)}, a pipe for connecting the expansion / contraction member and a fluid supply source, An open / close valve mechanism that is provided in the middle of the pipe and that allows fluid to be supplied to and discharged from the bulging member. Thereby, while a heavier conveyance thing can be raised / lowered, a conveyance object can be positioned in a more exact conveyance position. Here, the expansion / contraction member can be, for example, a tubular member. In addition, the open / close valve mechanism can include, for example, a fluid discharge valve that switches the flow path to discharge the fluid supplied to the bulging member.

  In addition, the transport method 2 includes, for example, a traveling unit on which the transport cart travels and a guide unit that guides a guided portion provided on the transport cart that travels on the travel unit and can travel on the floor surface. A guide having a simple guide body can be used. In this case, first, the guide tool in a state where the transport carriage is mounted is prepared on a floor surface of a stage close to one end opening of the transport container at a predetermined position, and then the guide tool is installed on the stage. And running on the floor surface of the transport container to be positioned in the transport container, and then placing the long object pallet on which the plurality of long objects are stacked on the floor surface of the stage. Thereafter, the transport carriage is moved on the traveling portion of the guide and the floor surface of the stage, and is placed on the stage in a state of entering the lower open space of the pallet for long objects. Next, the pallet support member is lifted by the elevating means, the pallet support member supports the bottom surface and the pallet for long objects floats from the floor surface, and then the transport carriage is moved to the stage. And the guide tool The pallet for the long object in the floating state is positioned in the transport container by running on the floor surface of the row part, and then the pallet support member is lowered by the elevating means, and the pallet support member is moved to the bottom surface The guide for the state in which the transport cart is mounted is placed on the floor surface of the transport container and the stage. A long object can be carried into the transport container by running on the stage.

The “guide tool” is not particularly limited in shape, size, number, etc., as long as it has a guide body provided with a travel part and a guide part. This traveling part can be, for example, a horizontal plate-like floor part. As said guide part, a guide surface, a rotation roller, a rolling ball etc. can be mentioned, for example. From the viewpoint of guidance, it is preferable that the guide part is a guide surface. Examples of the guided portion include a rotating roller, a rolling ball, and a guide surface. From the viewpoint of guided property, it is preferable that the guided portion is composed of a rotating roller and / or a rolling ball.
The guide body can include, for example, a flat floor portion as a traveling portion and guide wall portions as guide portions that rise from both side edges of the floor portion. In this case, examples of the cross-sectional shape of the guide body include a U-shape, an L-shape, and a rectangular ring.
The guide tool may further include, for example, a body lifting / lowering unit that lifts and lowers the guide body with respect to the floor surface. Thereby, a guide tool can be moved, without frictional contact between floor surfaces, such as a transport container and a stage. As this main body raising / lowering means, the structure of the above-mentioned raising / lowering means is applicable, for example.

  As the “stage”, for example, the configuration of the above-described stage can be applied. This stage usually includes a stage main body on which the long object stacking pallet is placed, and leg portions provided on the lower surface side of the stage main body. Moreover, the said stage can be installed in a floor surface with an anchor bolt, for example. However, if the installation location is a public facility, a soft place such as sand, or if the stage is moved, that is, if the anchor bolt cannot be used (or is not used), this stage is used. It is preferable that a vibration isolation rubber member (for example, a member made of nitrile rubber, butadiene rubber, silicon rubber, or the like) is provided on the ground contact surface of the leg portion. This is because the displacement of the stage can be suppressed by the vibration isolation effect in addition to the improvement of the frictional force against the floor surface. In this case, for example, the stage can have a step on which a cargo handling means (for example, a forklift or the like) for transferring a long object loading pallet onto the stage can ride. As a result, the load of the cargo handling means riding on the stepping platform is applied to the stage, and the positional deviation of the stage can be more reliably suppressed. Moreover, when not using an anchor bolt as mentioned above, the leg part of the said stage can have a sword mountain part which can bite into a floor surface, for example.

  For example, the stage may include a positioning portion that protrudes upward from the floor surface and that a side surface of the long object loading pallet (a side surface in the left-right direction of the pallet main body) contacts. Accordingly, when the long object loading pallet is transferred onto the stage by using a cargo handling means (for example, a forklift or the like), the long object loading pallet is brought into contact with the positioning portion, thereby the long object loading pallet. Can be transferred straight onto the stage along the transport direction of the transport container. For example, the positioning part is supported in a freely displaceable manner between an operation position capable of contacting a long object loading pallet placed on the stage and a retreat position not contacting the long object loading pallet placed on the stage. Can be. As a result, when the long object loading pallet on the stage is carried into the transport container, the positioning unit is positioned at a retracted position that does not interfere with the long object loading pallet, so that the long object loading pallet can be carried in more smoothly. Can do.

  The leg portion of the stage can have, for example, a height adjusting mechanism that can adjust the floor height of the stage up and down. Thereby, even if the floor surface on which the stage is installed has irregularities, undulations, etc., it is possible to give a good levelness to the stage. Examples of the height adjusting mechanism include a screw mechanism, a gear mechanism, a link mechanism, a cylinder mechanism, and an expansion / contraction mechanism. In addition, the said leg part is normally provided with two or more along the side edge part of the stage.

For example, a transport container frame on which the transport container is placed can be connected to one end side in the longitudinal direction of the stage. The transport container gantry is usually provided on a gantry body having a plurality of convex portions to be inserted into holes formed in the corner metal fittings at the four corners on the bottom side of the transport container, and a lower surface side of the gantry body. And a leg portion.
The connecting portion of the transport container pedestal and stage includes, for example, positioning means in the front and rear direction and the left and right direction for positioning the front and rear direction (contact direction) and the left and right direction (direction perpendicular to the communication direction) of the stage and transport container pedestal. Can be. Thereby, the floor surface height of the transport container placed on the transport container mount and the floor surface height of the stage can be matched more reliably. The positioning means in the front-rear direction can include, for example, a meshed portion provided on the stage, and a meshed portion that is provided on the transport container mount and meshes with the meshed portion from above and below. The left-right positioning means includes, for example, an engaged portion provided on the stage, and an engaging portion provided on the transport container base and engaged with the engaged portion from above and below. be able to.

  For example, a movement guide means for guiding the movement of the guide tool may be provided in the transport container pedestal and the connecting portion of the stage. Thereby, the conveyance trolley | bogie on a stage can be moved in the transport container mounted on the transport container stand | maintain, maintaining favorable straightness. Examples of the movement guide means include a rotating roller, a rolling ball, and a guide surface that guide the guide body of the guide tool. From the viewpoint of guideability, it is preferable that the movement guide means comprises a rotating roller and / or a rolling ball for guiding the outer surface of the guide wall portion of the guide body.

  The legs of the transport container pedestal can have, for example, a height adjustment mechanism that can adjust the floor height of the transport container placed on the gantry body up and down. Thereby, even if there are irregularities, undulations, or the like on the floor surface on which the transport container gantry is installed, it is possible to give good levelness to the transport container gantry. Examples of the height adjusting mechanism include a screw mechanism, a gear mechanism, a link mechanism, a cylinder mechanism, and an expansion / contraction mechanism. In addition, the said leg part is normally provided with two or more along the side edge part of a transport container stand.

On the upper surface side of the gantry main body, for example, an upper notch portion in which an upper direction and a left-right direction (a direction orthogonal to the communication direction) are opened can be formed. As a result, the cargo handling part of the cargo handling means (for example, the fork part of the forklift) can be inserted into and removed from the upper notch from the left and right directions, and the lifting body such as a forklift can be On the other hand, a transport container can be installed or moved. On the upper surface side of the gantry body, for example, a cargo handling section guide plate extending in the left-right direction for guiding a cargo handling section (for example, a fork section of a forklift) of the cargo handling means is provided at a position corresponding to the upper notch. Can do. Thereby, the cargo handling part of the cargo handling means can be more smoothly inserted and removed from the upper notch. Moreover, the strength of the gantry body can be improved.
The convex portion of the gantry body can be detachably attached at a position corresponding to a transport container having a different length dimension in the front-rear direction (the communication direction), for example. Thereby, transportation containers (for example, a 40-foot container and a 20-foot container) having different lengths can be placed on one type of transportation platform.

  In the transport method 2, the stage is usually used. However, when the length of the long object stacking pallet is shorter than the total length of the transport container (for example, transport of the long object stacking pallet). In the case where the directional length is 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, etc. of the total length of the transport container, it can be performed without using a stage.

Moreover, since the mounting members 10a to 10d and the pop-out preventing members 13a to 13d can be set at a predetermined height position by simply inserting and dropping them between the pair of columns 5a and 5b, the loading work of the long material L Can be performed more quickly and easily. Furthermore, the lashing work by the fixed band 16 or the like can be minimized. As described above, there is provided a pallet for long objects that can be stably transported without damaging long objects of various types and shapes, and a method for loading the long objects on the pallet. be able to.
Moreover, in the pallet P for elongate objects of a present Example, the mounting members 10a-10d are made from a square material, the protrusion prevention members 13a-13d are made from the steel material of L-shaped cross section, and the support | pillars 5a, 5b are cross-sectional. Since it is made of a U-shaped steel material, the mounting members 10a to 10d can exhibit a buffering function to more reliably suppress damage to the long material L, and the pop-out preventing members 13a to 13d and the column 5a. , 5b can improve the rigidity of the entire pallet P. As a result, the long object loading pallet can be safely suspended and conveyed by a crane, or can be lifted and conveyed by a forklift.
Further, in the long object pallet P of the present embodiment, both ends of the uppermost pop-out preventing member 13 are fixed to the pair of support columns 5a and 5b by fixing means (screwing or the like). The rigidity of can be improved.
Further, in the long object pallet P of the present embodiment, since the lateral movement preventing member 12 is provided on the mounting members 10a to 10d, the long object mounted on the mounting members 10a to 10d. The movement of L in the lateral direction can be more reliably prevented.

According to the method for transporting the long object L to the dry container C of the present embodiment, a large amount of the long object L can be transported to the 40-foot dry container C at a time while maintaining good straightness. Moreover, since the modularized pallet P is used for the dry container C, the long object L can be loaded in the dry container C without a useless gap. Moreover, the complicated fixing operation | work of the long object L in the dry container C can be suppressed to required minimum (substantially zero), and the conveyance operation | work of the long object L can be made more efficient. Furthermore, since the long object L and the long object loading pallet P to be carried into the dry container C can be prepared in advance on the stage 21 and around the stage 21, the transporting operation of the long object is also performed. Efficiency can be improved.
The elevating / sliding device 20 used in the transport method can be suitably used in, for example, a distribution center that frequently handles a large amount of cargo, a C · F · S (container freight station), or the like.
