Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Field of Application) This invention relates to a structure for mounting side bars on pallets for transportation.

(Prior Art and its Problems) Various types of pallets for transporting cargo have been developed. Some of these are equipped with side bars to prevent cargo from shifting. That is, this bar is placed over the loading and unloading openings to prevent cargo from shifting.

By the way, as shown in Fig. 5, this side bar is held by being inserted into a holder 50 attached to the pallet body, but in certain cases there is a problem that it may automatically fall off during transport. Ta. This is because the side bar 51 forms an insertion shaft portion 52 for the holder 50 by simply bending both ends thereof downward. Therefore, when the load to be transported is a tire or the like that is particularly easy to roll, when the tire T tries to roll down, a diagonally upward pushing force (lateral pressure) acts on the side bar 51. In this case, since the conventional side bar 51 does not have any catch, it gradually slides up as the tire T pushes it up and eventually falls off. If the sidebar were to fall off, it could cause an extremely dangerous situation due to scattered loads.

Therefore, the present invention improves the mounting structure of the side bar so that it will not easily fall off even if lateral pressure is applied to the side bar.

(Means for solving the problem) In order to solve this problem, the present invention is configured as follows. In other words, there is a pedestal for loading a load, a pair of side frames erected to face each other on both sides of the pedestal, and a removably horizontal structure between the two side frames to prevent the load from shifting. In a transport pallet comprising a side bar, a holder having an insertion hole is attached to the appropriate position of the side frame, and insertion shafts that can be inserted into the insertion hole are bent at both ends of the side bar, and
A part of the insertion shaft is formed with a throat portion for preventing slipping out, which can engage with the edge of the insertion hole when lateral pressure is applied to the side bar.

(Example) Hereinafter, an example embodying the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

In the drawings, P is the entire pallet whose frame is constructed of square metal members, and in this example, a pallet used for transporting an annular object such as a tire T is exemplified.

Now, the pallet P of this example includes a pedestal 1 on which the tire T is mounted, and a pair of side frames 2 that are erected facing each other on both the left and right sides of the cradle 1 to prevent the tire T from falling down.
and a pair of side bars 3 that are horizontally suspended between the both side frames 2 to prevent the tire T from rolling out.

The pedestal 1 is formed in the shape of a flat pallet and can carry a plurality of tires T aligned vertically. Also,
A pair of wheel stops 4, 4 each formed in the shape of a round bar are provided on the upper surface of the pedestal 1 along the longitudinal direction. Further, rectangular cylindrical sockets 5 to 5 are erected at the four corners of the pedestal 1, and the both side frames 2 are supported as a whole by fitting respective pillars 6 into the respective sockets 5 to 5. .

The both sides frame 2 is made up of a pair of columns 6 and a reinforcing member 7 suspended between the columns 6, and on the outer surface of each column 6, holders 8 for the side bars 3 described below are arranged at equal intervals. The mounting height relative to the side bar 3 can be selected depending on the size of the load (diameter of the tire T). Each holder 8 is formed into a box shape, and an insertion hole 8a passes through the upper surface of the holder 8.

The holder 8 is provided not only on the support column 6 as described above, but also on the outer surface of each socket 5. This is to attach the side bar 3 so that it does not get in the way when loading and unloading cargo (tires T).

The side bar 3, which is horizontally suspended between the side frames 2, includes a round bar-shaped main shaft portion 3A, and a small diameter insertion shaft 3B bent downward at both ends of the main shaft portion 3A. The insertion shaft 3B is inserted into the insertion hole 8a of each holder 8.
It is formed so that it can be inserted into the holder 8, and is constricted by forming a throat portion 3C at a position facing the insertion hole 8a when inserted into the holder 8, so that lateral pressure acts on the side bar 3. However, when the bar 3 is tilted (as shown in the imaginary line shown in FIG. 1), the edge of the throat portion 3C can engage with the edge of the insertion hole 8a.

The pallet 1 of this example is formed as described above, and when the tires T are loaded and transported, the pallet 1 is placed vertically on the upper surface of the tray 1 and placed on both side frames, as shown in FIG. After that, the side bars 3 are placed horizontally between the frames 2 on both sides to prevent the cargo from collapsing. At this time, the holder 8 is selected according to the diameter of the tire T, and the side bar 3
The installation height is adjusted.

In this way, the tire T is stored on the pallet P,
Although the tire T is transported in this state, if shock or vibration is transmitted during transport, the tire T may move in the rolling direction. In this case, a diagonally upward pushing force acts on the side bar 3, so
The entire side bar 3 is tilted as shown by the imaginary line in FIG. Then, as mentioned above, the insertion shaft 3
Since the edge of the throat portion 3C of B is caught on the edge of the insertion hole 8a, the side bar 3 is prevented from coming off, thereby preventing the cargo from collapsing.

FIG. 4 shows another embodiment of the present invention. The pallet P' of this embodiment is of a type that stores tires T in two rows, and the side frame 2' is made up of one reinforcing member 7' stretched between the pillars 6', and the side bar 3' is horizontally suspended between the side frames 2' by holders 8' attached to two places near the center of this reinforcing frame 7'. That is, by passing the side bar 3' through the rings of both tires T, the tires T are tied together and held.

Note that the other configurations are the same as those of the above-mentioned embodiment,
Almost the same effects can be achieved.

(Effects of the invention) As explained above, according to the invention, even if a load acts on the side bar to push it up diagonally upward, the throat part gets caught in the insertion hole, preventing the side bar from coming off. Can be regulated. Therefore, the load is reliably held and transportation safety is ensured.

In the transport pallet, holders for supporting side bars each having an upwardly opening insertion hole are attached to appropriate positions on both sides of the side bars, and holders are attached to each of the insertion holes at both ends of the side bar. In addition to forming an insertable insertion shaft by bending it downward, a part of this insertion shaft engages with the edge of the insertion hole to prevent it from coming out when side pressure is applied to the side bar when the side bar is attached. A structure for attaching side bars to transport pallets that forms a throat section that serves as a guide.
