Abstract

In a single-piece collapsible quadrangular transport pallet, consisting of a bottom part (1), four side walls (2, 2', 2", 2'") and a lid part (3), three edges of the bottom and lid parts of the pallet in each case are beaded (5, 6), whereas the fourth edge (7, 8) in each case is connected via two grooves (9, 9', 10, 10') with interposed webs (12, 12') to an edge (7, 8) of the side walls (2, 2') in each case. In this case, the two grooves and webs are located opposite one another in such a way that the bottom part is connected to one side wall (2) and the lid part is connected to the opposite side wall (2'). <IMAGE>

Description

Die Neuerung betrifft eine einteilige zusammenlegbare quader­förmige Transportpalette, bestehend aus Bodenteil, vier Seitenwänden und aufstülpbarem Deckelteil.The innovation concerns a one-piece collapsible cuboid transport pallet, consisting of a base part, four side walls and a cover part that can be put on.

Transportbehälter der oben genannten gattungsmäßigen Art sind in zahlreichen Ausführungen bekannt, beschrieben bei­spielsweise in der US-PS 4 648 034 sowie der EP 0 236 652. Sie bestehen in vielen Fällen aus Karton und sind ohne weite­res zum Transport leichterer oder kleinerer Güter geeignet. Schwerere Güter werden in massiven Paletten, bestehend aus Holz oder Metall verpackt, was einen hohen Aufwand an Ver­packungsgewicht erfordert und den Rücktransport unrationell macht, oder aber die Güter werden in kleineren Einheiten einzeln verpackt und mehrere Kartons auf einer Palette ge­stapelt zum Transport gebracht. Auch dies bedeutet beim Verpacken, Entpacken und eventuellem Rückversand einen hohen Aufwand an Material, Zeit und Kosten.Transport containers of the generic type mentioned above are known in numerous designs, described for example in US Pat. No. 4,648,034 and EP 0 236 652. In many cases they consist of cardboard and are readily suitable for transporting lighter or smaller goods. Heavier goods are packed in massive pallets consisting of wood or metal, which requires a lot of packing weight and makes the return transport inefficient, or the goods are packed individually in smaller units and several boxes stacked on a pallet are brought for transport. This also means a lot of material, time and costs when it comes to packing, unpacking and possible return shipping.

Weitere Nachteile bekannter Verpackungen sind ungünstige Dimensionierung im zusammengelegten Zustand, so daß sie zum Rücktransport beispielsweise nicht auf Euro-Paletten gestapelt werden können oder die Notwendigkeit, Hilfsmittel wie Klebeband zur stabilen Verpackung beziehungsweise zum Transport zu verwenden.Other disadvantages of known packaging are unfavorable dimensions in the collapsed state, so that they cannot be stacked on Euro pallets for return transport, for example, or the need to use aids such as adhesive tape for stable packaging or for transport.

Deshalb bestand die Aufgabe, eine Palette der eingangs ge­ nannten Art zu finden, welche nicht die oben genannten Nach­teile aufweist.Therefore, the task was to create a range of ge mentioned type to find, which does not have the disadvantages mentioned above.

Neuerungsgemäß wurde die Aufgabe gelöst mit einer zusammen­legbaren Transportpalette mit den im kennzeichnenden Teil des Anspruchs 1 genannten Merkmalen. Weitere Einzelheiten der Neuerung gehen aus den Unteransprüchen, der Beschreibung und den Zeichnungen hervor. Die Neuerung wird nun anhand von Zeichnungen näher erläutert und zwar zeigen

  • Figur 1 bis 3 die Palette im mehr oder weniger zusammenge­legten Zustand
  • Figur 4 die Palette im mehr oder weniger aufgerichteten Zustand.
According to the invention, the object was achieved with a collapsible transport pallet with the features mentioned in the characterizing part of claim 1. Further details of the innovation emerge from the subclaims, the description and the drawings. The innovation will now be explained in more detail with the aid of drawings, which show
  • Figure 1 to 3, the pallet in a more or less folded state
  • Figure 4 shows the pallet in a more or less erect state.

Die neuerungsgemäße Transportpalette (Figur 4) besteht aus Karton und ist zusammengesetzt aus einem rechteckigen Bo­denteil (1) sowie einem Deckelteil (3), welche jeweils an drei Seiten Borde (5, 6) besitzen. Die Seitenwände (2, 2′, 2′′, 2′′′) sind derart mit dem Boden- und Deckelteil ver­bunden, daß die untere Längskante (7) der Seitenwand (2), welche nicht aufgebordet ist, gemäß Figur 3 über einen Steg (12) sowie zwei Rillungen (9, 9′) mit dem Bodenteil verbunden ist und daß die der Seitenwand (2) gegenüberliegende Sei­tenwand (2′) an ihrer Oberkante (8) ebenfalls über einen entsprechenden Steg und Rillungen an dem Deckelteil hängt. Die zwischen den Längsseitenwänden (2 und 2′) liegenden Quer-Seitenwände (2′′, 2′′′) sind über in ihrer Mitte senk­recht angeordnete Rillungen (11, 11′) einklappbar. Die mit dem Bodenteil verbundene Längswand (2) kann an ihrer Oberseite eine aufklappbare Ladeklappe (13) aufweisen.The transport pallet according to the invention (FIG. 4) consists of cardboard and is composed of a rectangular base part (1) and a cover part (3), each of which has shelves (5, 6) on three sides. The side walls (2, 2 ', 2'',2''') are connected to the base and lid part such that the lower longitudinal edge (7) of the side wall (2), which is not on-board, according to Figure 3 via a Web (12) and two creases (9, 9 ') is connected to the bottom part and that the side wall (2) opposite the side wall (2') on its upper edge (8) also hangs over a corresponding web and creases on the cover part. The transverse side walls (2 '', 2 ''') lying between the longitudinal side walls (2 and 2') can be folded in via grooves (11, 11 ') arranged vertically in their center. The longitudinal wall (2) connected to the base part can have a hinged loading flap (13) on its upper side.

Die Dimensionen des Boden- und Deckelteiles entsprechen vorzugsweise der Euro-Paletten-Norm (80 x 120 cm). Zum Beladen wird das Bodenteil zweckmäßigerweise auf einen Palettenboden (Figur 4), der in den meisten Fällen aus Holz besteht, abge­legt, worauf die Palette aufgefaltet wird, was durch den geschilderten Aufbau außerordentlich leicht durch eine Person handhabbar ist. Die Seitenwände (2˝, 2′′′) bekommen durch die Borde (5) einen Halt nach außen, da sie im aufgebordeten Bodenteil eingestülpt sind. Nach vollständigem Beladen wird die Ladeklappe eingeklappt und der Deckel aufgestülpt.The dimensions of the base and lid part preferably correspond to the Euro pallet standard (80 x 120 cm). For loading, the bottom part is expediently placed on a pallet floor (FIG. 4), which in most cases consists of wood, on which the pallet is unfolded, which is extremely easy to handle by one person due to the structure described. The side walls (2˝, 2 '' ') get a hold to the outside by the shelves (5), since they are turned over in the shelf part. After loading is complete, the loading flap is folded in and the lid is put on.

Zum Rücktransport kann die Palette ebenso einfach zusammenge­faltet werden (Figuren 2 bis 4), wobei sie im zusammengefal­teten Zustand eine Dicke einnimmt, die kaum größer als die Summe der Dicken von Bodenteil, Deckelteil sowie dem Vier­fachen der Seitenteile ist (Figur 1). Zweckmäßigerweise werden mehrere der aufeinandergestapelten zusammengefalteten Paletten gemeinsam auf einem Euro-Paletten-Boden transpor­tiert.The pallet can also be simply folded up for return transport (FIGS. 2 to 4), whereby in the folded state it assumes a thickness that is hardly greater than the sum of the thicknesses of the base part, cover part and four times the side parts (FIG. 1). Appropriately, several of the stacked, folded pallets are transported together on a euro pallet floor.

Die Vorteile, die mit der neuerungsgemäßen Palette erzielt werden, lassen sich wie folgt zusammenfassen:
- Material-, Volumen- und Gewichtseinsparung beim Transport.
- Wiederholte Verwendbarkeit gegeben, da die Rücklieferung im geschlossenen Zustand stoßgeschützt erfolgt.
- Leichtes und zeitgünstiges Ver- und Entpacken ohne Hilfs­mittel.
- Bessere Lagerhaltung.
- Rationelle Verwendung beim Transport wegen Euro-Palet­ten-Norm.The advantages that can be achieved with the range according to the innovation can be summarized as follows:
- Material, volume and weight savings during transport.
- Repeated usability given that the return delivery is shock-proof when closed.
- Easy and inexpensive packing and unpacking without tools.
- Better warehousing.
- Efficient use during transport due to the Euro pallet standard.

Wenn die Rillungen (9, 10) in Trennlinien umgewandelt werden, wird aus den Stegen (12, 12′) ein Bord für die jeweils vierte Kante des Boden- beziehungsweise Deckelteils, so daß die Palette auf diese Weise zwei- oder dreiteilig statt einteilig ausgestaltet sein kann. Dabei werden die oben ausgeführten Vorteile erhalten und die Raumform wird nicht verändert.If the creases (9, 10) are converted into dividing lines, from the webs (12, 12 ') a board for the fourth edge of the base or cover part, so that the pallet is designed in two or three parts instead of one part can be. The advantages outlined above are retained and the spatial shape is not changed.
