Definitions

  • This invention relates to arranging loaded pallets in a stable manner.
  • This invention has been devised to build on the last mentioned system by providing means to interlock adjacent loaded pallets and thereby acquire the desired stability.
  • the present invention can be broadly said to provide a pallet converter comprising four uprights each with an upper end and a lower end with at least the upper ends interconnected to provide an upper support means to support a superimposed load, said upright lower ends being adapted for coupling respectively to four corner zones of a pallet, complementary first and second coupling means on the pallet converter respectively located on opposed sides of the pallet converter and respectively engagable and disengagable with complementary coupling means on other like pallet converters by vertical relative movement between the pallet converters being coupled.
  • Fig.l is a side view of a pallet converter of the present invention mounted on a pallet
  • Fig.2 is a plan view of the pallet and pallet converter as illustrated in Fig.l,
  • Fig.3 is an end view of the arrangement of Fig.l.
  • Fig.4 is a side view of two pallets fitted with pallet conveters as illustrated in Fig.l when coupled together.
  • U shaped end frames are provided at each end of the pallet.
  • the end frames each comprise two uprights 5 and 6 interconnected rigidly by a top rail 7, best seen in Fig.3.
  • the lower end of each upright 5 and 6 is provided with a "shoe" 8 having a top plate to extend over the top of an end of an end batten 3 with a downturned lug 9 to lock over the inner end edges of the batten, a downturned leg 10 to end abut the bearer and a wing 11 on the leg 10 to lie adjacent the inner face of the bearer.
  • each lower end of the uprights 5 and 6 is anchored to a corner of the pallet after mounting on the pallet and being arcuately moved as indicated by the arrow in Fig.l.
  • the uprights 5 and 6 are tubular, or can be provided with upper socket ends, and the upper ends of the corresponding uprights of the two end frames are interlinked by tie bars 12 each having an end plate 13 (see Fig.2). Projecting downwardly from the underface of each plate 13 there is a spigot (not shown) to engage the open upper end of an upright. In this way the end frames are interlocked and the result is a rigid converter frame with four uprights and four top links. Within the converter frame goods can be loaded onto the pallet and the frame will provide a rigid support for a superimposed load, such as a pallet with or without a like converter frame mounted thereon.
  • converter frame is used because a pallet (with or without a load) fitted with a converter frame is converted into a support structure for a superimposed load.
  • the pallet plus converter is a form of racking.
  • a loaded pallet would almost invariable be unusable for the support of a superimposed load, such as another loaded pallet, because of the nature of the load on the lower pallet.
  • the ends 17 are also downturned so as to locate the bar 16 below the bar 14 and it will be seen from Fig.3 that the spacing between the ends 17 is less than the spacing between the brackets 15.
  • the bar 16 can be hooked over the bar 14 in an interlocking operation wherein the pallet la (Fig.4) is manoeuvred into close proximity to the pallet 1 by a fork lift truck whilst raised and is then lowered.
  • the preferred arrangement is as just described with reference to the drawings.
  • plate 18 fixed to each bar 7 of each end frame fitted with the bar 14. It can be mounted in alternate locations if desired.
  • the purpose of the plate 18 is to ensure that in a tiering operation each pallet must be raised a certain height before it can be moved across the to P of "the underlying converter frame thereby ensuring that the bar 16 of the pallet converter being stacked will be above the bar 14 of the already stacked or tiered pallet converter.
  • the "hooking" of the pallet converters (by the movements of arrows A and B of Fig.4) can then be readily accomplished using the plate 18 as a fore and aft guide for positioning the to-be tiered pallet converter relative to the stationary pallet converter.
  • the fork lift truck driver must execute a vertical lift of the pallet being lifted in order to clear the plate 18 of the underlying pallet converter to ensure uncoupling before horizontal relative movement is attempted.
  • the bar 16 of the first (the end) pallet converter would be engaged with a stationary bar, the equivalent of a bar 14, fixed to a wall of a building or a post in the building or the like.
  • a stationary bar the equivalent of a bar 14
  • the tiered row of pallet converters are locked to a rigid member thereby further stabilizing the tiered row.

Abstract

Le modificateur de palette décrit se compose de deux structures en U inversé, comportant chacune deux pieds (5, 6) reliés par un rail supérieur (7). Chaque pied (5, 6) est conçu dans sa partie supérieure pour se placer en prise avec un rail (12), ce qui permet d'obtenir l'assemblage rigide des structures en U, et chaque pied (5, 6) est conçu dans son extrémité inférieure (8) pour se placer en prise avec un angle d'une palette (1). Des organes à crochets (16, 17) disposés sur l'une des structures en U et des organes (14, 15) dans lesquels s'introduisent les crochets et qui sont disposés sur l'autre structure en U permettent aux modificateurs de palettes d'être accrochés ensemble par mouvement vertical relatif entre eux.
