Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] Industrial Application Field The present invention relates to a container, particularly a powder container for transporting fluids such as liquids and powders.

Prior Art and its Problems Conventionally, as a container for liquid powder, there is, for example, a container described in Utility Model Application No. 131792/1983 filed by the applicant of the present invention (see FIG. 4).

That is, the container is made up of a box 1 formed by connecting four side panels 15 erected along the periphery of the upper surface of a flat pallet 2, and a bag 20 housed within the box 1. In this container, the lower end of one of the four side panels 15 is cut out to provide an opening 15a.
The discharge port 22 of the bag body 20 was positioned at point a, and the transported object was discharged from this discharge port 22. In addition, 30 is a lid body.

However, in the conventional container, the bag body 20 is exposed through the opening 15a of the side panel 15, so it is easily torn. In particular, when the bag 20 is filled with objects to be transported, a portion of the bag 20 bulges out from the opening 15a and is easily torn due to impacts during transportation, so the bag 20 should be made of fabric with high strength. I had to.

Moreover, in conventional containers, it is necessary to provide the outlet 22 on the side of the bag body 20, so there is a problem that the transported items tend to remain inside the bag body 20 and it is difficult to take them out completely. Ta.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention includes a box body formed by connecting four side panels erected along the periphery of the top surface of a flat pallet, and a box body inside the box body. In a container consisting of a bag body to be stored, a closing plate is removably provided in an opening formed by cutting out a side part of the upper deck board located at the fork insertion opening of the flat pallet, and the bag body is The outlet is disposed on the upper surface of the closing plate, and when not in use, the closing plate is attached to an opening of a container component storage section located below the opening.

Operation and Effects Therefore, according to the present invention, all the sides of the bag are in contact with the side panels, and the bottom surface is in contact with the upper deck board and the closing plate of the flat pallet.

Therefore, the bag is not exposed to the outside, so there is no risk of it being torn. In particular, even when the bag is filled with items to be transported, the opening provided in the upper deck board of the flat pallet is closed with a removable closing plate, so the bag does not bulge out from the opening during transportation. There is no need to worry about it and it is not easy to tear. For this reason, the bag does not necessarily need to be made of fabric with great strength.

Furthermore, since the outlet of the bag is provided at the bottom of the bag, the transported items do not remain inside the bag and can be completely removed.

Furthermore, by attaching the closing plate to the opening of the container component storage section, there is an effect that the container components stored in the storage section can be prevented from scattering.

Embodiment An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of FIGS. 1 to 3.

This embodiment is applied to a cubic container, which is composed of a box 1, a bag 20, and a lid 30.

The box body 1 is made up of four side panels 15 erected along the periphery of the upper surface of a flat pallet 2, which are integrally connected via support columns 10 and clamping fittings (not shown) as connecting means. .

That is, the flat pallet 2 is roughly in the shape of a pallet that can be transported by a forklift, and includes a lower deck board consisting of four plates 3 laid in parallel at appropriate intervals, and a lower deck board made up of four plates 3 laid in parallel at appropriate intervals, and two plates perpendicular to the plates 3 and laid at appropriate intervals. This is an integrated structure consisting of four girders 4 arranged in parallel and a square upper deck board 5 placed and fixed on the girders 4. Note that since the upper deck board 5 is flat, it will not damage the bag body 20.

At the corners of the flat pallet 2, upright portions 6 are formed through metal fittings having a substantially U-shaped cross section in order to erect support columns 10, which will be described later. In order to position a side panel 15, which will be described later, a positioning portion 7 is formed by fixing a steel material having a substantially L-shaped cross section.

Further, of the four girders 4 mentioned above, the container component storage part 4a formed by the middle two has a space that can accommodate the pillars 10, and one of them is closed while the other is closed. can be opened and closed using a closing plate 9. The opening/closing operation of the storage section 4a is as follows.
This is done by fitting and removing the closing plates 5a into the grooves 8 provided at the ends of the opposing surfaces of the middle two girders 4.

Furthermore, the closing plate 9 has the same planar shape as the opening 5a provided by cutting out the side part of the upper deck board 5 located at the fork insertion opening, and is removable from the opening 5a. The opening 5a can be opened and closed.

The support column 10 is made of steel and has a substantially L-shaped cross section, and has a square pipe-shaped fitting part 10a formed at its lower end.

The side panel 15 is made of FRP plywood and is lightweight and has excellent rigidity, is easy to clean, and is resistant to scratches.

The bag body 20 has a flexible structure made of rubber, plastic, etc. whose internal volume changes according to the contents to be transported, such as filling and discharging liquid. A cylindrical discharge port 22, which can be bent freely and whose tip is closed, is provided on the side.

The lid body 30 has a structure in which a steel material is fixed to the outer peripheral edge of FRP plywood to prevent it from slipping off from the side panel 15.

Next, an example of a method for assembling and folding a container according to the present invention will be described.

First, the closing plate 9 is placed on the exposed upper end of the beams 4, 4 forming the storage section 4a to close the opening 5a, and the fitting section 10a of the support column 10 is attached to the upright section 6 of the flat pallet 2. While the side panels 15 are fitted and erected, the side panels 15 are positioned on the positioning part 7 and aligned with the pillars 10, and the lower end corners of the side panels 15 are placed on the upper surface of the fitting part 10a of the pillars 10. The upper end corner of the side panel 15 and the upper end of the support column 10 are clamped and fixed using clamping fittings (not shown) to form the box body 1.

Then, the outlet 22 of the bag 20 is appropriately folded and placed on the upper surface of the closing plate 9, and the bag 20 is stored in the box 1.

After filling the bag body 20 with the objects to be transported through the injection port 21 (see FIG. 2), the box body 1 is covered with the lid body 30 to complete the assembly.

According to this embodiment, the closing plate 9 is pressed against and clamped by the beams 4, 4 and the bag body 20 filled with objects to be transported, so there is an advantage that there is no risk of it falling off.

Next, to take out the transported items, use the flat pallet 2.
Pull out the closing plate 9 from the opening 5a of the opening 5.
The discharge port 22 of the bag 20 is pulled out from a (see FIG. 3), the tip is cut off, and the transported object is discharged as necessary. After removing all the items to be transported, remove the lid body 30 and the clamping fittings, and remove the side panel 15.
Disassemble. Then, the pillars 10 are extracted from the upright part 6 and inserted into the storage part 4a of the flat pallet 2, and the closing plate 5a is fitted into the groove part 8 to close the storage part 4a and prevent the pillars 10 from dissipating. . Further, the bag body 20 is folded and compressed into a compact shape.

Finally, the bag body 20 and four side panels 15 are sequentially placed on the flat pallet 2, and the lid body 30 is placed from above to complete the folding operation.

If this container is to be used again, it can be assembled using the same steps as the above-mentioned assembly method.

According to this embodiment, even when the bag body 20 is filled with objects to be transported, there is no part of the bag body 20 that is exposed to the outside, so there is no risk that the bag body 20 will be torn and the objects to be transported will leak out. The bag body 20 is not damaged even when being returned, and can be used for a long period of time.

Furthermore, due to the presence of the side panels 15, the upper deck board 5, and the closing plate 9, the bag body 20 is not directly subjected to external loads and internal loads, and therefore does not require great strength. Therefore, the bag body 20 can be made of thin fabric, which has the advantage of saving material costs.

Note that the bag may be a disposable bag that is discarded after one use. Further, the container according to the present invention is not limited to transporting liquids, and may also be used for transporting powder, and the box shape is, of course, not limited to the cubic shape.
