Lightweight Palette {light palatte}

The present invention relates to a lightweight pallet, and in particular, by using a light weight member, to reduce the logistics cost, to produce a solid pallet at a low price to reduce the production cost, to improve the stability in cargo transportation It's about the palette.

Conventional pallets were mostly wood, plastic and steel.

In the case of wooden pallets, there is a problem of a decrease in cargo load and an increase in logistics costs due to overweight, a problem of manual work in manufacturing, and a deformation of the shape resulting from warping or cracking of wood according to temperature and weather. There is a problem, and damage to the user and the product caused by nail seams and the like.

In addition, due to the endemic diseases of imported logs and high water content, pests are highly reproductive and must be quarantined, and developed countries such as the US and Europe currently regulate the use and import of wooden pallets for their own protection. It is a trend.

In the case of plastic pallets and steel pallets, there is a problem in that manufacturing costs are high because the molds for plastic pallets must be manufactured individually.

In addition, since pallets could not be produced individually for each cargo size, it was often a problem to use pallets that were not suitable for individual cargoes.

In addition, the raw material price of plastic and steel pallets had a disadvantage of high plastic pallet production cost. And, plastic is a semi-environmentally friendly material, which is being regulated in developed countries. In addition, the finished plastic pallet has a disadvantage in that the disposal process is complicated and causes an environmental problem.

In addition, plastic and steel pallets have the disadvantage that they can not be produced freely and in a short time (24 hours) according to the size of the deposit.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned conventional problems, and an object of the present invention is to propose a lightweight pallet using a material which is light in weight and robust as well as recyclable.

In addition, an object of the present invention is to propose a lightweight pallet that can reduce the logistics cost and manufacturing cost.

In addition, despite being manufactured in a light weight, it is an object of the present invention to propose a lightweight pallet that can safely load a heavy load by maintaining the support rigidity of the pallet.

In addition, it is possible to reduce the production cost by producing a solid pallet at a low price, there is an advantage that can increase the stability in cargo transportation.

Hereinafter, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the spirit of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments presented with the drawings, and those skilled in the art who understand the spirit of the present invention can easily suggest another embodiment included in the spirit of the present invention.

1 shows a perspective view of a pallet constructed according to the invention.

Referring to FIG. 1, the pallet includes a top plate 11 capable of loading cargo, and a runner 12 corresponding to a support part supporting the top plate.

In detail, the top plate 11 is made of a light weight material well withstanding normal stress (normal stress), it can be made of honey pad or corrugated cardboard or the like. The corrugated cardboard may be in various forms and may be made of triple corrugated cardboard.

In addition, the runner 12 is formed on the lower side of the upper plate 11 of the pallet is used to support the upper plate 11, in detail, the support member for supporting the load transmitted from the upper plate 11, and The support member is a member for use in a pallet or the like according to the present invention, wherein the support member is an upper plate support formed on the lower side of the upper plate and used to withstand the load transmitted to the upper plate. Say. In addition, the runner 12 may be freely manufactured without being limited in shape, height, and length, and may be made of a light and rigid paper material such as a pad even in the material of the supporting member forming the runner. In addition, it can be produced by selecting a material such as EPS (Expandable Polystyrene resin), a chip board (particle board) or a particle board having a moisture-proof function.

For the support member constituting the runner, such as a honey pad, EPS, chip board will be described in detail by the specific embodiment shown in conjunction with the drawings below.

In addition, the upper plate 11 and the runner 12 are bonded to each other by a first adhesive on an adhesive surface 14, and the first adhesive will be described later.

Below, the supporting member which comprises a runner is demonstrated.

2 is a perspective view of a runner with a honey pad as a supporting member according to the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 2, the runner 12 includes a support member for maintaining a predetermined strength or more, and a protective case 22 surrounding the periphery thereof. In detail, the support member is formed by stacking each of the three layers as a honey pad 21, and the protective case 22 can be made using a corrugated cardboard having a groove having an uneven shape therein.

The support member has honeycomb pads as its components, with a first support layer 25, a second support layer 26 below it, and a third support layer 27 at the lowermost side with respect to the top layer. It is laminated, and between each layer is simply laminated without bonding by an adhesive agent. However, it is also possible to form bonded by an adhesive, but due to the nature of the runner applied to the pallet, the vertical stress rather than the shear stress (shere stress) acts a lot, so the need for adhesion may not be bonded, thereby reducing the process There is an advantage.

The reason why the support member is made of three pads (25, 26, 27) made of honey pad 21 as a material and combined with each other is that when one honey pad is made long and used as a runner, it receives vertical stress. This is because it is not suitable because there is a bending problem. In addition, when shear stress (shere stress) is a disadvantage that tends to be pulled to one side, it is to divide into several parts to increase the strength to withstand vertical and shear stress.

Here, the three honeycomb layers 25, 26, 27 may be surrounded by the protective case 22 so as not to move with each other. In this way, by protecting the outer periphery of the honey pad 21 with a protective case 22, it is formed as a single runner as a whole can be enhanced the strength of the runner. The number of honeycomb pads layered is not limited to the above embodiment, and an optimal number may be selected in consideration of the capacity and weight of the cargo.

On the other hand, the upper and lower surfaces where the honey pad 21 and the protective case 23 are in contact with each other is bonded using an adhesive, a second adhesive can be used as the adhesive, and the second adhesive will be described later.

3 is a perspective view showing a honey pad 21 according to the present invention.

Referring to Figure 3, the honey pad 21 is made of a paper material, the shape is a honeycombed grating 31, the upper support pad 32 on the upper portion of the grating 31, the lower support at the bottom The pad 33 is adhere | attached by the 2nd adhesive agent.

The honeycomb pad 21 has a honeycomb lattice 31 formed densely, and thus, when vertical stress is applied, the honey pad 21 has a characteristic of distributing the force evenly over the front surface of the upper plate 11.

In addition, even when the shear force in the horizontal direction has a stable structure that does not bias or push toward either side.

Therefore, the heavy cargo can be loaded safely, and the cargo can be loaded safely even in a vibration-prone area. Of course, the shape and size of the pad is not limited to the honeycomb-shaped lattice, it is possible to form a variety of grids.

Figure 4 is a perspective view showing a honey pad and EPS combined shape as a supporting member according to the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 4, in the present embodiment, as the support member, a first support layer 43 made of honey pads and a second support layer 44 made of EPS are formed. Specifically, EPS is generally a material such as styrofoam, and has a porous moisture-proof function and light properties. The first support layer 43 is two layers of honey pads 41 and the second support layer 44 is one EPS 42. And, the contact surface between the EPS 42 and the honey pad 41 need not be bonded by an adhesive as in the case of the honey pad layer.

The outer circumference is also surrounded by the protective case 22. The upper and lower surfaces of the support member and the protective case 22 are bonded by the second adhesive as described with reference to FIG. 2.

In this case, considering the problem of strength and productivity, the thicker and thicker the pad 41 is, the better the thicker the EPS 42 is in consideration of the problem of moisture proofing, and the better the weight of the EPS 42 in consideration of the problem of weight. The smaller the thickness, the better.

In consideration of economical problems, the thicker the pad 41 is, the better the thickness of the EPS 42 is.

Applicants of the present invention, in consideration of these various limitations, proposes a specific numerical value that can produce the optimal runner (12).

The optimal runner 12 is to adjust the thickness of the honey pad 41 and the EPS 42 properly, two honey pads 41 having a thickness of 25 ± 4 millimeters, and 32 ± 4 millimeters in thickness One of the EPS 42 is selected and produced.

However, these specific values are standardized for commercial use and exemplify a case that is suitable for the most used pallets. In view of the capacity and weight of the cargo, the optimum thickness may be apparent to those skilled in the art.

The reason for producing a new runner by combining the two materials in this way is that even if the pallet is placed where there is moisture or water, the lower part in contact with the ground is the EPS 42, so there is no fear of water seeping. As a result, the honey pad 41 forming the first support layer 43 has no influence.

In addition, it is advantageous because it is inexpensive in terms of cost. In addition, since the EPS 42 is easy to cut, the runner is very easy to manufacture, and because the weight is light, the operator has an excellent workability because it is easy to carry or load the pallet.

The support member of the above-mentioned form is not limited to the above embodiment, and the whole can be deformed to EPS 42 instead of the honey pad 41 to form the upper layer according to the characteristics of the workplace or the cargo.

5 is a perspective view showing a shape in which a honey pad 51 and a chip board 52 are combined as a supporting member according to the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 5, the support member includes a first support layer 53 using a honey pad and a second support layer 54 made of a chip board formed under the first support layer 53. This includes. A particle board may be used instead of the chip board 52 as the support member.

Specifically, the chip board is called cardboard or chipboard, and is a low-density thick paper or wood board which is compressed by mixing a plurality of pieces of paper or wood into fine powder. In addition, the particle board is a building material plate cured by applying heat and pressure by impregnating a low-molecular weight resin on wood chips. In the case of using the chip board or the particle board, not only the waterproof and the moisture-proof ability is good, but also the price is very low in economical advantages. In addition, the chip board or the particle board has the advantage that the weight is easy to transport and processing. The first support layer 53 is composed of two layers of honey pads 51, and the second support layer 54 is formed of one chip board 52. The chip board 52 and the honey pad ( 51) the contact surface does not need to be bonded by an adhesive as in the case of the honeycomb 21 layer.

In addition, the outer circumference of the support member is bonded to the protective case 22 and the second adhesive as described above.

The support member of the above-mentioned form is not limited to the above embodiment, and the whole deformation of the support member instead of the honey pad 41 to form the upper layer in accordance with the characteristics of the workplace or the cargo is transformed into the chip board 52 or the particle board. It is apparent to the person skilled in the art that this is possible.

6 is a perspective view showing a shape in which a chip board and EPS are applied as a supporting member according to the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 6, the support member includes a first support layer 63 having an upper layer as a chip board 61 and a second support layer 64 having an EPS 62 as a lower layer. Here, the first support layer may be EPS and the second support layer may be a chip board.

7 shows an exploded view of the protective case 22 surrounding the support member according to the present invention. The protective case 22 is folded along the fold line 71 to surround the support member, and serves to prevent the support members made of several layers from being in close contact with each other. The material of the protective case 22 is as described above.

Figure 8 is a perspective view showing a box-shaped protective case overlying the support member according to the present invention.

The box-shaped protective case is composed of an upper protective case 81 and a lower protective case 82, the inner hollow is a hollow portion 83 so that the support member can enter. However, the support member is not limited to the honey pad shown in FIG. 8, and various kinds of members as described above may also be used.

In the case of using the protective case shown in FIG. 7, a process of applying an adhesive to the protective case and a process of folding and pressing the adhesive to the support member are required. However, in the case of using the box-shaped protective case, since the upper protective case 81 and the lower protective case 82 only need to be covered and pressed on the support member, the number of processes is reduced, which is advantageous in terms of productivity.

9 is a perspective view illustrating a shape in which the outer peripheral surface of the protective case according to the present invention is cut out.

Referring to FIG. 9, the runner includes a first support layer 95, which is a honey pad, and a second support layer 94, which is a chip board or EPS.

In particular, the upper incision at the top of the runner to form the incision line 92, 93 in a portion corresponding to a predetermined interval in the vertical direction from the boundary line of the first support layer 95 and the second support layer 94, respectively. The height H1 to the line 92, the height H2 of the incision and the height H3 from the lower incision line 93 to the bottom of the runner are appropriately set. As a result, the protective case may be cut by turning four sides of the runner along the cut lines 92 and 93.

The reason for removing the predetermined portion of the protective case by forming the incision lines 92 and 93 as described above is that water or moisture accumulated on the bottom surface is absorbed by the protective case 22 and the runner rides through the protective case 22. This is to prevent the climb to the top of (12).

Hereinafter, the first adhesive for adhering the upper plate 11 and the runner 12, and the lattice 31 of the honey pack 21 and the upper and lower support pads 32 and 33, the support members and the protection The second adhesive agent used for bonding between the cases 22 will be described.

The first adhesive is a vinyl acetate emulsion adhesive, polyvinyl acetate 37 ± 1.0%, poly vinyl alcohol 3 ± 0.5%, dibutyl phthalate 2 ± 0.5%, It contains 50 ~ 100ppm of vinyl acetate monomer and 57 ± 1.0% of water.
