Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a package that can be used when collectively transporting various members from a factory or warehouse.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 For example, when transporting each member that makes up an assembly stand, assembly warehouse, etc. from a factory or storage warehouse, multiple members individually wrapped in corrugated cardboard, etc. are bound with a band and placed on a wooden pallet. They are loaded together. As shown in FIG. 6, the pallet comprises a plurality of decks 15 and a plurality of deck boards 16, which are sized to have a width of about 1800 mm, a depth of about 900 mm, and a weight of about 20 kg. One that uses a plurality of wooden blocks instead of the beam 15, one that replaces the deck board with one plywood, and a deck board or plywood under the digit 15 that selectively covers both sides. There is also a palette that can be used. When moving the pallet with the members piled up, insert the pawl of the forklift into the gap formed between the digits 15 and lift. After lowering the components at the destination, the pallets are either collected and reused or disassembled at the destination and discarded.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, the conventional pallet occupies a large space even if it is a single pallet, and when it is many, it takes a lot of space. Therefore, it is difficult to secure a sufficient storage area for reuse, and it takes time and money to collect them. Even if the pallet is dismantled and disposed of after the components are unloaded at the destination, it takes time and money. By the way, the unit price of the above size pallets is around 5000 yen. Therefore, it is preferable to reuse it, but even if it is reused, there is a dilemma that it is difficult to collect it and secure a storage place. It is an object of the present invention to obtain a pallet substitute that is easy to secure a storage place and is easy to dispose of even when it is discarded.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In the present invention, as shown in FIG. 1, as a substitute for a pallet, a pair of legs 1 and a plurality of bands 3 are prepared, and a package 2 is placed on the legs 1 to form a package. The pedestal 1 is a hollow metal frame member into which the claws 5 of the forklift can be inserted, and is arranged at intervals corresponding to the width between the claws 5 of the forklift. The packaged item 2 has a long member 6 which is horizontally mounted on the both leg bases 1 at least at the lowest stage. Thus, the footrest 1 and the packaged article 2 are bound together by a plurality of bands 3. As the pedestal 1, it is possible to use a groove shape, a lip groove shape, one in which the tip of the lip is bent inward, or a square shape surrounded by four sides. The packaged article 2 has a length that can be laid over both legs 1, and in the case of a heavy article, it may be a single item, or may be an assembly of each member that constitutes an assembly stand or an assembly warehouse, for example. In that case, a long member 6 having high rigidity, such as a folded roof or a pillar, is arranged at the bottom.

[0005]

[Effect of the device]

 According to the present invention, since only the pedestal 1 can be collected in a small size when not in use, the occupied area can be greatly reduced as compared with the conventional pallet. Therefore, it is easy to secure a storage place and it can be easily collected even when it is reused. Since the pedestal 1 is made of metal and is not easily damaged, no repair work is required even when it is used repeatedly. Even when the pedestal 1 is discarded after the package 2 is unloaded at the transport destination, it can be easily disposed without disassembling. Also in terms of price, the pair of footrests 1 requires about 1/3 of the conventional one pallet, which is a great cost advantage.

【Example】

 In FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, a package 2 is loaded on a pair of pedestals 1, and the pedestal 1 and the package 2 are bound by a plurality of bands 3 to form a package. The pedestal 1 is formed by bending a color steel plate having a thickness of 1.6 mm into a lip groove shape, and is open at both ends in the longitudinal direction and between the lips 4. The weight of each pedestal 1 is about 3 kg, and the size is 200 mm wide, 100 mm high, and 700 mm long. The protrusion size of the left and right lips 4 was set to 50 mm. These dimensions were set in consideration of the size of the pawls 5 of the forklift (thickness: about 30 to 50 mm, width: about 100 mm), the load on the pedestal 1, and the like. The two pedestals 1 are arranged with the lip 4 facing upwards so as to correspond to the width between the claws 5 of the forklift (about 800 mm between the centers).

The packaged article 2 is an assembly in which highly rigid ones are selectively accumulated from a plurality of members constituting an assembling garage, and a long member 6 serving as a folding roof is arranged at the lowermost stage. More specifically, the long member 6 is placed on the left and right pedestals 1 via the cushioning material 7, the groove 9 is filled with the reinforcing member 9, and the pillar member 10 and the girder member 11 are provided on the long member 6. Multiple components were loaded. A cushioning material (not shown) such as Styrofoam or cardboard was interposed between the members as needed. The band 3 is made of synthetic resin and has a tensile strength of 600 kg, and can be easily cut with a cutter knife or the like.

Thus, as shown in FIG. 1, after covering the whole package 2 with the dustproof film 12, the package 2 is bound with the band 3 inserted into the leg stand 1 to bind the package. Configured. The band 3 is bound by tightening it with a portable vibration welding machine or the like. Although the packing body depends on the size of the garage to be assembled, in this embodiment, the depth is about 0.7 m, the width is about 3.5 m, the height is about 0.5 m, and the weight is limited to about 300 Kg. .. It should be noted that the members that make up the garage and are difficult to include in the above-mentioned package are made into different packages. For example, a girder material 11 or the like is bridged on another foot stand, and a wall plate having low rigidity or a light weight member is loaded thereon to form a package. In the storage warehouse, the packages may be stacked in two or three layers.

According to the above configuration, the volume occupied by the pair of footrests 1 stacked when not in use is about 1/9 of that of the conventional pallet, and the storage space can be significantly reduced. Therefore, it is easy to secure a storage place, and when reusing it, it can be easily collected by loading it on a truck or the like. Moreover, since the weight of the pedestal 1 is about 1/4 that of the wooden pallet, which is 6 kg, it is easy to handle. Since the pedestal 1 is made of metal and is not easily damaged, it does not require repair work even if it is used repeatedly. Even if the footrest 1 is discarded after the package 2 is unloaded at the destination, it is a small component and can be disposed of as it is, so it does not require disassembly and can be disposed easily. In terms of price, a pair of pedestals 1 is about 2000 yen, which is about 1/3 of the cost for one conventional pallet, which is a great cost advantage. Since multiple related members that make up the assembly type garage are put together into a single or several packages, not only the packaging materials such as corrugated cardboard that were packed separately for each member can be omitted, but also in a warehouse or the like. Eliminates the trouble of collecting related materials and selection mistakes. No members are lost during transportation.

(Another Example of Embodiment) The band 3 is not limited to the case of being inserted into the leg base 1 to be bound, but may have a form in which both ends are hooked by hooking claws provided at the ends of the leg base 1. It is also possible to use metal or cloth bands. The pedestal 1 may have the shape shown in FIGS. In the footrest 1 shown in FIG. 3, the tips of the left and right lips 4 are bent inward so that the band 3 can be hung inside. In this case, the band 3 is not displaced and the band 3 is not damaged by the pawls 5 of the forklift, so the strength may be reduced to about 300 kg. In FIG. 4, the footrest 1 is formed in a groove shape. In FIG. 5, the footrest 1 has a rectangular shape. In the above description of the embodiment, two leg bases 1 are provided at intervals corresponding to the forks 5 of the forklift, but the leg bases 1 are for supporting packages, and two or more leg bases may be provided. ..
