Description

— ¥ — Pallet Full description . BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a pallet for storing and transporting various loads. More specifically; The J of the Oy invention relates to a structural design A of a 3-platform (xt) with a combination of: a light, flexible and compressive-resistant 5 aA material. Any pallet for storing and transporting loads can be evaluated by its function, performance, quality 0 and analysis of variables Jie mechanical resistance; Volume stability » 1 static stability » dynamic stability. These variables must meet the ly agreed requirements of the user's needs; circulation and movement; This involves two basic questions: the raw materials and the formulation method used in assembling and manufacturing the pallet. However; Sale is a limitation of the pallet design domain. A well-functioning, efficient, good-quality pallet with all desirable characteristics is often a bonus and impractical to produce. Evaluation Variables Mechanical resistance is one of the determinants of acceptable total pallet load. Both raw materials and structural design influence Dale on this. Ay pallet with low mechanical resistance that has a low acceptable load capacity; It may or may not be excluded

It shatters based on the total weight placed on it; Thus the safety of the load(s) is compromised. Volume stability is achieved by using easy-to-handle raw materials that are characterized by low sensitivity to climatic changes, Jie temperature and humidity. o The production process can correct any size discrepancies; But this act needs a cost, and the cost of repeated work is often high

Because of the distribution of specialized public forces and time; They can be used in other production processes. Static stability is particularly important in creating loads on the pallet and in stacking pallets on top of each other in Alla when not in use. The structural design of the pallets shall permit the maximum amount of loads to be stacked without dangerously affecting their sliding or

0 Its instability due to any structural defect in the surface of the loading platform. Therefore, the roof should not only include a physical space for the placement of loads; aly should also provide stability and safety to the loads themselves. The same can be said for pallet stacking. and currently; It is not uncommon to stack unused pallets to organize space or to use them for production purposes. The structure shall be such that one pallet EY is another pallet underneath.

ve dynamic stability relates to the issue of slippage or slippage of the forks of fork-lift trucks when they are inserted into the pallets. And many of the currently known loading platforms do not have the ability to maintain complete stability of the forks; This may cause slipping and associated damage to loads when trucks move pallets. When designing the pallet, other types of movements that the pallet is exposed to during the production process must also be taken into account;

(ie) Transportation via a conveyor belt that moves horizontally and vertically. Both the structural design and the material used affect

on dynamic stability; Ay is a material with low friction (friction) wear that facilitates sliding.

The variables explained above affect the various processes that take place when handling pallets

Such as palletizing (separating stacked pallets and placing loads on pallets

o download); and consolidation (formation of groups of different sizes less loads to form a single size

Bigger on the pallet and export (transport; move; unload from the pallet).

Raw materials

Raw material selection is an essential and critical stage for pallet design; And it could

It becomes a determining factor for the field of design tl on the needs and requirements. The performance of the 0 structural design is directly dependent on the material used and vice versa.

Most pallets known today are constructed of wood or injected plastic.

The wooden parts are characterized by their relatively low manufacturing cost, as well as their easy production and formation

Structures 0 However, this material exhibits some problems such as brittleness when attacked

Harmful insects Jie termites and the need to use nails; This may damage the load 1 placed on the pallet; When connecting parts together. Another negative includes difficulty

cada size control) and this fact can harm process automation in addition to creating difficulties

In storage of pallets when not in use.

Despite the low manufacturing cost; Wooden pallets can be expensive

The need to perform Gal purification operations, especially for the export of pallets.

aa

Steam fumigation involves applying chemical products to wood to disinfect the pallet; And get rid of harmful insects Jie termites. This process is time consuming and choad expensive and we increase the final cost of the pallet. Finally; The final downside of wooden pallets is their durability and environmental protection. d. The use of wood causes distortions and negatively affects the environment. That is why the endurance requirements of J were taken into account to reach the dag solution and it is possible that the natural source or Tay will rarely be implemented. Parts made of injection molded plastic have good load-bearing and epidemic resistance; It does not require nails because injection molded plastic pallets are generally manufactured as a single 0 unit. However, this material has disadvantages such as low friction (lack of stability); Difficult to repair and high cost which includes injection mold manufacturing. Therefore, the production cost increases the final price of the pallet. Conclusion; It can be said that to this Lag there is no known loading platform that combines all the desired requirements and performs the desired function at a low cost. The user is often forced to choose 1 certain features while giving up others due to cost constraints; matter; and installation | To create a loading platform.
