BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a flat pallet for transporting and storing packages.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventional flat pallets are roughly classified into metal and wooden, and in recent years, plastic pallets have been used.

A flat pallet made of metal, mainly steel, has sufficient strength and durability, but is heavy and difficult to handle, and the weight ratio of the flat pallet to the weight of the cargo to be transported is large. In addition, the loading efficiency for the means of transporting the load is low. Also, wooden flat pallets are lightweight and easy to handle, but are easily damaged and have drawbacks in durability. Furthermore, plastic flat pallets are very lightweight and easy to handle, but have insufficient strength and are often broken or unusable due to impact, impact, impact, and the like, and have drawbacks in durability.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, the present invention is to provide a flat pallet which is strong and durable, lightweight and easy to handle, and which can be replaced if the face plate is damaged. It is.

[0005]

A flat pallet according to the present invention for solving the above-mentioned problems is provided with a resin honeycomb plate or a water-resistant cardboard honeycomb plate face plate on at least the upper surface of a lattice-shaped metal base. The peripheral edge of the face plate is a metal frame of a U-shaped metal frame welded to the side surface of the metal base and a metal frame screwed to the outer surfaces of both ends of the metal frame with bent metal fittings at both ends in a plane straight line. It is what is held down by.

[0006]

As described above, in the flat pallet of the present invention, since the face plate is made of a resin honeycomb plate or a water-resistant cardboard honeycomb plate, in the case of a steel flat pallet, the weight of the face plate occupying nearly half of the total weight is extremely small. This reduces the overall weight of the flat pallet to almost half. Accordingly, the weight of the flat pallet is light and easy to handle, the ratio of the weight of the flat pallet to the weight of the load to be transported is reduced, and the loading efficiency of the load to the transport means is increased. In addition, since the above-mentioned face plate is high in strength and hard to be damaged, it has sufficient durability as a flat pallet, and in the event of damage, fixed bent metal fittings at both ends of a flat metal frame are fixed. Remove the screw,
By removing the metal frame from one side of the face plate, the face plate can be pulled out, so that it can be replaced with a new face plate.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS One embodiment of the flat pallet of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view showing parts of the flat pallet. It comprises a hollow base 2 having a rectangular cross section in parallel and a support member 3 in which three hollow bases 2 are connected at the both ends and in the middle in a plane perpendicular to the base. Reference numeral 4 denotes a face plate arranged on the upper surface of the steel base 1, which is made of a resin honeycomb plate. Reference numeral 5 denotes a flat U-shaped metal frame having an L-shaped cross section for pressing the peripheral edge of the face plate 4. Reference numeral 6 denotes a metal frame which has a L-shaped cross section and presses against the peripheral edge of the face plate 4 and which is straight in a plane. Reference numeral 8 denotes a screw for fixing the stopper 7 to the outer surfaces of both ends of the metal frame 5.

In order to assemble a flat pallet with these parts, first, a face plate 4 is arranged on the upper surface of the steel base 1 as shown in FIG. 2, and an L-shaped cross section is formed on the side surface of the steel base 1. The metal frame 5 is fixed by welding to hold down the three edges of the face plate 4. Then, a metal frame 6 having an L-shaped cross section and having a straight plane is applied to the remaining side surface of the steel base 1 so that a face plate 4 is formed.
The flat pallet 9 is assembled by fixing the stoppers 7 at both ends of the metal frame 6 to the outer surfaces of both ends of the metal frame 5 with screws 8.

Next, another embodiment of the flat pallet of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 3 is an exploded perspective view showing parts of the flat pallet, and 1 'is a lattice-shaped rectangular steel base. It is composed of lattice frames 2 ', 2' made of hollow square pipes on both upper and lower sides, and spacers 3 'made of hollow square pipes, which are connected by upper and lower lattice frames 2', 2 'at intersections of the hollow square pipes. . Reference numeral 4 'denotes a face plate disposed on both upper and lower surfaces of the steel base 1', which is made of a resin honeycomb plate. Reference numeral 5 'is a flat U-shaped metal frame having a groove shape in cross section for pressing the peripheral edge of the face plate 4'. Reference numeral 6 'denotes a metal frame having a groove in cross section for pressing the peripheral edge of the face plate 4' and having a straight line in a plane, and bent metal fittings 7 are provided at both ends. Reference numeral 8 denotes a screw for fixing the stopper 7 to the outer surfaces of both ends of the metal frame 5 '.

In order to assemble a flat pallet with these parts, first, face plates 4 'arranged on both upper and lower surfaces of a steel base 1' are inserted into grooves of a metal frame 5 'having a U-shaped cross section and a U-shaped cross section. set. Next, the metal frames 5 'holding the upper and lower face plates 4' are arranged on both upper and lower surfaces of the steel base 1 'and fixed to the periphery by welding. Next, the upper and lower face plates 4 '
Are placed on the upper and lower surfaces of the steel base 1 'by covering the open outer edges with metal frames 6' each having a groove-shaped cross section and a straight plane, and the stoppers 7 at both ends of each metal frame 6 'are attached as described above. The flat pallet 9 'is fixed to the outer surfaces of both ends of the metal frame 5' with screws 8 as shown in FIG.

In the flat pallets 9, 9 'of the respective embodiments constructed as described above, the face plates 4, 4' are made of resin honeycomb plates, so that the total weight is reduced to almost half that of the steel flat pallets. Is done. Accordingly, the weight of the flat pallet is light and easy to handle, the ratio of the weight of the flat pallet to the weight of the load to be transported is reduced, and the loading efficiency of the load to the transport means is increased. In addition, since the face plates 4 and 4 'are made of a resin honeycomb plate, they have high strength and are hardly damaged, so that they have sufficient durability as a flat pallet. The screws 8 to which the bent stoppers 7 at both ends of the metal frames 6, 6 'are fixed are removed, and the metal frames 6, 6' are removed from one side of the face plates 4, 4 ', whereby the face plates 4, 4' are pulled out. It is good to replace it with a new one and reuse it.

In the flat pallets 9, 9 'of the above embodiments, the steel bases 1, 1', the metal frames 5, 5 ', 6,
6 'is coated with a resin.

The face plates 4, 4 'in the flat pallets 9, 9' of the above embodiments are made of resin honeycomb plates, but may be made of water-resistant cardboard (for example, corrugated cardboard). is there. Further, the honeycomb shape of the honeycomb plate is not particularly limited to a normal honeycomb.

[0014]

[Effect of the invention] As described above, the flat pallet of the present invention has sufficient strength and durability, is lighter and easier to handle than a steel pallet, and the weight ratio of the flat pallet to the load to be transported is small. The loading efficiency of the transportation means for the load is increased, and in the event that the face plate is damaged, it can be easily replaced and the maintainability is good.
