Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to an improvement of a so-called pallet with a box, in which a pallet main body is provided with side wall members surrounding the pallet loading surface.

As is well known, the use of pallets in cargo handling and transportation work can greatly improve cargo handling and work efficiency, and therefore the use of various pallets has become widespread.

Among these, in order to increase the pallet loading capacity and prevent cargo from collapsing, many pallets are equipped with so-called boxes, in which side wall members are provided surrounding the loading surface of the pallet.

By the way, in this type of pallet, each side wall member is usually rotatably connected to the pallet body by a hinge or the like, and is fixed to the pallet body so that it can be turned upside down. Although such a pallet has the advantage of being able to reduce its volume when not in use, when the pallet is half-reduced, each side wall member that has been knocked down overlaps the pallet body, making it difficult to place cargo on top of it. The drawback was that it could not be loaded.

Therefore, this is an extremely inconvenient problem when the pallet is used immediately or when the side wall member is not required (for example, when the volume of the cargo extends beyond the pallet loading surface).

The present invention was devised to provide a pallet that solves these conventional problems.It is a pallet with a box that has a simple structure, and can be assembled and disassembled easily and quickly. When only the pallet body is used, the object is to provide a pallet with the feature that no unnecessary parts remain on the loading surface.

The present invention will be described below based on the illustrated embodiment. In the figure, reference numeral 1 is a pallet main body, and of course, a space 1a in the front and rear direction is formed so that a support arm of a lift, etc. can be inserted and engaged.

Reference numerals 2, 2, 3, and 3' designate a pair of left and right front and rear side plates and front and back plates that surround the loading surface 1b of the pallet body 1 from its four sides and constitute side wall members.

To explain this side wall member in the order of its assembly, the side plates 2, 2 have a thickness on the outside of both ends in the front and back direction so that both left and right ends of the front and rear plates 3, 3', which will be described later, are inserted. A corner fitting 4 with an angular cross-section is fixedly protruded.

The side plates 2, 2 are secured by a fixing means in which an appropriate number of fixtures 5 (butter bolts, etc.) are screwed into screw holes 1C provided on the side surface of the pallet body 1 through through holes 2a of the side plate 2. It is detachably attached to the side surface of the pallet body 1.

At this time, the lower surface of the side plate 2 is flush with the lower surface of the pallet main body 1, and the inner surface of the corner fitting 4 in the front-rear direction is brought into contact with the corner of the pallet main body 1. A retaining portion 6 of the front and rear plates 3, 3' is formed between the front and rear plates 3, 3' and the end surfaces of the side plates 2.

Next, the front plate 3 and the rear plate 3' are made of a single plate without any metal fittings or screw holes, but with the side plates 2 and 2 attached to the pallet body 1 as described above. The left and right ends of the pallet are inserted into the retaining portion 6 formed by the corner fittings 4 and the side plates 2 from above, and the pallet is assembled with its lower surface in contact with the loading surface 1b of the pallet body 1.

The front and rear plates 3, 3' are of course removable.

These four side plates 2, 2 and front and rear plates 3, 3'
If the fixtures 5 of the side plate 2 are firmly fastened in the assembled state,
A one-piece boxed pallet with a box body on the top is completed.

When disassembling this pallet with boxes, the assembly procedure described above can be reversed.

Here, in the case of the illustrated example, a separate lid body 7 is rotatably connected to the rear plate 3' around the upper edge of the rear plate by a link 8 (or a hinge, etc.). Then, close the box like the virtual curbstone in Figure 1.

In the above embodiment, in order to further simplify the operation when assembling the side plates, the through holes 2 of the side plates 2 are inserted as shown in FIG.
It is also possible to change the notch part 2b to open the part a downwardly.

As described in the above embodiments, the pallet with box according to the present invention has an extremely simple structure and can be assembled and disassembled quickly and easily. It is characterized by the fact that it can be easily used for different purposes.

Furthermore, after disassembly, there are no unnecessary attachment members or other attachments left on the loading surface of the pallet body, so there is no problem when using the pallet body alone. be.

Therefore, the boxed pallet of the present invention can eliminate the problems described above and has great utility value.
