JP 2003-200909 A Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-211932 Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 11-43187 Japanese Patent No. 3628922 JP 2001-130669 A

  When the glass plate loaded on the pallet is fixed to the pallet body using the polypropylene band (commonly called PP band), the PP band is disposable after the glass plate is taken out from the pallet loaded with the glass plate. For this reason, it could not be used repeatedly and had to be discarded as waste.

  In addition, the pallet described in Patent Document 1 has a problem that the loading efficiency is poor because the pallet has a side frame that is movable from four side surfaces without using a PP band.

  Furthermore, the invention described in Patent Document 2 is intended to prevent misalignment during transportation of a small-sized glass plate such as a side window glass for a vehicle, and the side portion of the glass plate placed on the pallet. However, since the front side of the glass plate is only a tightening band, there is a problem that when the size of the glass plate is increased, there is a high possibility that the glass plate falls down or the load is shifted.

  Furthermore, in the pallet as described in Patent Document 3, a particularly strong force is applied to the left and right vertical edge portions of the frontmost glass plate when the vertical glass plates stacked with the belt are directly tightened. Therefore, it is good when transporting glass plates for architectural processing such as double-glazed glass, but when packing glass substrates such as liquid crystal displays and plasma displays that do not allow slight scratches or chips, There is a risk that an excessive force is applied to the edge portion of the substrate. Further, since the belt is an elastic body, the size of the glass substrate increases, and if the load weight increases with the increase in the number of sheets to be loaded, the load on the glass plate may not be supported.

  Further, as shown in Patent Document 4 and Patent Document 5, a presser plate whose position is freely adjustable is provided on the front frame of the pallet so that it can be pressed from the front side of the glass plate. There is a problem that the weight of the front frame becomes heavy due to the pressing plate, and the burden on the operator increases when the front frame is attached and detached manually. Also, if the number of glass plates to be loaded on the pallet is small, the adjustment stroke of the front press plate is insufficient, the front press cannot be brought into contact with the glass plate, and the glass plate cannot be fixed. There was a point.

  The present invention is intended to solve the above problems, that is, in a pallet that transports glass plates, the glass plates can be securely fixed regardless of the number of glass plates stacked in a vertical position on the pallet. Does not generate waste such as disposable PP bands used to fasten and fix the glass plate during packing, reduces the weight of the front frame of the pallet, and presses the glass plate surface or pressing part when pressing the frontmost glass plate surface The object is to fix the glass plate on the pallet so as not to cause scratches or chips in the adjacent edge portions.

That is, the present invention includes a floor frame, a back frame, a front frame, and a top plate frame, and is a self-supporting glass plate on which a plurality of glass plates are stacked so as to lean on the back frame side in a vertical posture. In the transportation pallet, side frame position adjusting means is provided to adjust the position of the side frame in contact with both vertical sides of the glass plate in the width direction of the glass plate so as to be freely detachable between the left and right side frames. And pressing means for pressing the front pressing bar of the glass plate against the front glass plate surface, the pressing means is provided with rails on the left and right side frames of the pallet, Hooks provided on both ends of the holding bar are hooked so that the front holding bar can be slid along the rail. By shortening the length of the belt by attaching, that the front holding plate of the front presser bar against the front surface of the glass plate of the front row, a pressing means for pressing and fixing the laminated glass plate from the front side direction It is the pallet for glass plate transportation characterized.

Alternatively, in the present invention, as the front presser bar, the front presser bar can be extended and retracted by connecting elastic members arranged between a pair of front presser plates in a stretchable manner in a row. It is a pallet for transporting glass plates.
Alternatively, the present invention provides the above-mentioned glass plate, characterized in that a movable back plate is provided that can be adjusted in the width direction of the back frame by sliding in the left-right direction from the left and right sides of the fixed back frame. It is a pallet for transportation.

  According to the present invention, the glass plate can be securely fixed even when the number of the plurality of glass plates stacked in a vertical position on the pallet is small, and the disposable used for fastening and fixing the glass plate at the time of unpacking No waste such as PP band is generated. In addition, since the front presser plate that holds the entire glass plate from the front side of the glass plate is provided separately from the front frame, the burden on the operator when the front frame is attached and detached can be reduced.

  Furthermore, the front presser plate is brought into contact with the front surface of the glass so that the pressing force is evenly applied to the front row surface of the glass plate, and the front presser plate is brought into contact with the glass plate surface so as to cover the edge. Since the glass plate is fixed by tightening the bar with a belt loader (lashing belt), the glass plate can be fixed without scratching the glass plate surface as well as the edge portion.
