Abstract

A pallet-like support base for a shipping and storage container for liquids has a bottom for supporting the inner container of the storage container and corner and middle feet. The feet are mounted on a base frame. The bottom of the support base and the outer jacket of the inner container are mounted on the base frame. The corner feet and middle feet of the support base have inwardly or outwardly directed formations for reinforcement.

Description

UNDERTAKING LOWER FRAMEWORK, PARTICULARLY FOR TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE CONTAINERS FOR LIQUIDS DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to lower frames in the manner of pallets, in particular for transport and storage containers for liquids, which are equipped with an inner container of synthetic material comprising a filler neck that can be closed and a discharge branch pipe for connecting a tap, and with an outer container of a grid or metal sheet, the lower metal frames comprising a base to support the inner container as well as corner and central legs that are manufactured in a frame of base, and to which are fixed the base of the lower frame as well as the outer jacket of the inner container (DE 42 06 945 Cl). The object of the invention is to improve the construction of the lower frame in the manner of a pallet of the generic type under consideration, which is preferably used in transport and storage containers for liquids, with a view to greater strength. This problem is solved according to the invention by means of a lower platform-like frame having the characteristics of claim 1.

The subordinate claims include favorable and convenient refinements of the invention. In comparison with the known lower frames that are used mainly for liquid containers, the construction of the lower frame according to the invention is characterized by a greater resistance to breakage and to the bricks, which has as an effect an improvement of the safety of transport, and for a lower own weight. The lower frame according to the invention is explained below based on the figures of the drawing, which represent the following: Fig. 1 a perspective representation of a transport and storage container for liquids equipped with the lower frame, Fig. 2 an external perspective view, and Fig. 3 an internal perspective view of a corner leg of the lower frame. The transport and storage container 1 for liquids according to Fig. 1, which is used as a disposable and returnable container, comprises as main components an inner refill container 2 in the shape of a parallelepiped, made of synthetic material, which is equipped with a tubing 3 of filling which is closed with a lid 4 in the upper base 5, and a discharge nozzle 6 in the area of the lower base 7 for the connection of a tap 8 of intake, an external jacket 9 of bars 10, 11 of cross and horizontal gratings that are crossed, made of metal, as well as a lower frame 12 in the manner of a platform with dimensions of length and width that meet the European standard. The lower frame 12 of the transport and storage container 1 for liquids has a base 13 to support the inner container 2 as well as corner legs 14, 15 which are manufactured in a base frame 16, and to which the base 13 is fixed. as well as the outer jacket 9 of the inner container 2. In the sheet shell 17 of the corner legs 14 of the lower frame 12, externally oriented reinforcing grooves 18 are printed, pressing from the outside, extending perpendicular to the upper and lower bearing edge 19, 20 of the shell 17. blade throughout the 21st height of this. The increase in the resistance to breakage and to the drops produced by the reinforcing grooves 18 in the sheet shell 17 of the corner legs 14 makes it possible to reduce the thickness of the sheet of the sheet shell 17 of the corner legs 14, so that a decrease in the own weight of the lower frame and, consequently, a lower empty weight of the transport and storage container 1 is obtained.

Claims

1. Lower platform-like frame, in particular for transport and storage containers for liquids, which are equipped with an inner container of synthetic material having a closing filler neck and a discharge connection for the connection of a tap of intake, as well as with an external jacket of a grid or sheet metal, being that the lower metal frame comprises a base to support the inner container, as well as corner and central legs that are manufactured in a base frame and to which the base of the lower frame is fixed as well as the outer jacket of the inner container, characterized in that the corner and / or central legs of the lower frame have deformations towards the outside or inside to reinforce them.

2. Lower frame according to claim 1, characterized by reinforcement grooves oriented to the interior, which are formed in the sheet shell of the corner legs.

3. Lower frame according to claim 2, characterized in that the reinforcement grooves are pressed under the sheet shell of the corner legs.

4. Lower frame according to claim 2 and 3, characterized in that the reinforcement grooves of the corner legs extend perpendicular with respect to the upper and lower supporting edge of the sheet shell over the entire height thereof.
