Description

La présente invention a pour objet un container de transport du type container mixte pour messagerie applicable au transport de colis et/ou de vêtements suspendus.The present invention relates to a transport container of the mixed container type for messaging applicable to the transport of packages and / or hanging clothes.

Le transport par messagerie consiste à convoyer des colis d'un point à un autre au moyen de véhicules et grâce à des entrepôts relais de stockage et de répartition.Transport by courier consists of conveying packages from one point to another using vehicles and through relay storage and dispatch warehouses.

Il est donc nécessaire de regrouper différents colis convoyés vers une même destination et l'on comprend qu'il est surtout nécessaire de diminuer les manutentions.It is therefore necessary to group different packages conveyed to the same destination and we understand that it is above all necessary to reduce handling.

Aussi, les transports modernes ont recours à des containers de dimensions standardisées afin de pouvoir être disposés dans tous les types de véhicules, en nombre variable selon les capacités de celui-ci.Also, modern transport uses containers of standardized dimensions in order to be able to be arranged in all types of vehicles, in variable number according to the capacities thereof.

Dans ce but, les containers existants comprennent un fond, deux faces latérales pleines maintenues en partie haute par des traverses, l'ensemble étant monté sur des pieds afin de permettre la préhension à l'aide de chariots à fourche.For this purpose, the existing containers include a bottom, two solid lateral faces held in the upper part by crosspieces, the assembly being mounted on feet so as to allow gripping using fork carts.

Si de tels containers ont présenté un avantage et un progrès certains, ils ne restent applicables qu'à des colis ou des produits emballés.If such containers have presented a definite advantage and progress, they remain applicable only to packages or packaged products.

Il se trouve que de nouveaux marchés sont apparus et notamment le transport de vêtements sur cintre, directement du producteur chez le commerçant.It turns out that new markets have appeared and in particular the transport of clothes on hangers, directly from the producer to the merchant.

Dans ce but, les véhicules sont équipés de crémaillères disposées sur les parois latérales intérieures entre lesquelles sont disposées des barres support sur lesquels sont accrochés les cintres supportant les vêtements.For this purpose, the vehicles are equipped with racks arranged on the inner side walls between which are arranged support bars on which are hung the hangers supporting the clothes.

Cette méthode pose plusieurs problèmes immédiats.This method poses several immediate problems.

Le premier est celui du regroupement des vêtements, car bien souvent ceux-ci doivent être chargés dans le véhicule chez le fabricant, puis déchargés dans un établissement relais, puis rechargés dans un autre véhicule à destination du commerçant.The first is that of grouping clothes, because very often these must be loaded in the vehicle at the manufacturer, then unloaded in a relay establishment, then recharged in another vehicle for the merchant.

Il est en effet rare que le contenu complet d'un camion aille d'un fabricant chez un commerçant.It is indeed rare that the complete contents of a truck go from a manufacturer to a trader.

Quand bien même tout le contenu d'un camion serait issu d'un même fabricant, et même si il n'est pas nécessaire de passer par un entrepôt relais, il faudra néanmoins lors de la livraison aller prendre, pour chaque commerçant, les différents vêtements là où ils se trouvent ce qui pose des problèmes au moment de la récupération sur les barres suspendues.Even if all the contents of a truck come from the same manufacturer, and even if it is not necessary to go through a relay warehouse, it will nevertheless be necessary at the time of delivery to pick up, for each trader, the different clothes where they are, which causes problems when recovering from the hanging bars.

Un autre problème vient du fait que ce genre de transport est parfaitement saisonnier en fonction de la mode et il existe deux grandes périodes seulement, ce qui interdit, sur le plan économique l'aménagement particulier de certains véhicules, exclusivement pour ce type de transport.Another problem comes from the fact that this kind of transport is perfectly seasonal depending on the fashion and there are only two main periods, which prohibits, economically the special arrangement of certain vehicles, exclusively for this type of transport.

Une autre contrainte imposée par les vêtements sur cintre est celle de la taille des vêtements.Another constraint imposed by clothes on hangers is that of the size of the clothes.

En effet, en fonction des tailles, le remplissage ne s'effectue pas de la même façon et l'aménagement des véhicules avec de grandes barres transversales bloquées dans des crémaillères n'est pas une bonne solution car les barres ont une grande longueur et tous les vêtements disposés sur cette barre n'ont bien souvent pas la même taille.Indeed, depending on the sizes, the filling is not carried out in the same way and the arrangement of vehicles with large transverse bars blocked in racks is not a good solution because the bars have a great length and all the clothes placed on this bar are often not the same size.

De plus, il paraît difficile dans un seul véhicule de prévoir simultanément des vêtements et des colis ou tout simplement de mélanger les types de vêtements.In addition, it seems difficult in a single vehicle to plan clothing and packages simultaneously or simply to mix the types of clothing.

Il est également nécessaire de rappeler que les vêtements, partant de chez le fabricant prêts à la vente, doivent être présentés chez le commerçant en parfait état et doivent notamment être exempts de toute trace de manutention ou de frottement.It is also necessary to remember that the clothes, leaving from the manufacturer ready for sale, must be presented to the merchant in perfect condition and must in particular be free from all traces of handling or friction.

La plupart du temps les vêtements sont sous des housses plastiques, mais pas nécessairement et de toutes façons il convient de ne pas déchirer ces housses en matière plastique qui sont excessivement fragiles.Most of the time the clothes are under plastic covers, but not necessarily and in any case it is advisable not to tear these plastic covers which are excessively fragile.

Du point de vue économique également, il faut que la solution proposée soit la moins chère possible compte tenu de la concurrence très importante qui existe dans le domaine du transport et plus particulièrement de la messagerie.From an economic point of view also, the solution proposed must be the cheapest possible given the very significant competition which exists in the field of transport and more particularly courier.

La présente invention a pour but de proposer un container de transport mixte pouvant être utilisé pour les colis et/ou pour les vêtements, qui est modulable en fonction des tailles des vêtements, qui protège le contenu, qui peut être gerbé, qui peut être réalisé aux normes en évitant quasiment toute perte de volume utile, dont le surcoût par rapport aux containers de type connu est rapidement amortissable, qui permet la diminution du nombre de manutentions, et qui protège particulièrement bien le contenu des chocs extérieurs et des dégradations.The object of the present invention is to propose a mixed transport container which can be used for parcels and / or for clothing, which is modular according to the sizes of the clothing, which protects the content, which can be stacked, which can be produced. to standards, almost avoiding any loss of useful volume, the additional cost of which with respect to containers of known type can be quickly depreciated, which enables the number of handling operations to be reduced, and which protects the contents particularly well from external shocks and damage.

A cet effet, le container de transport selon l'invention comprend un bâti sur pied avec quatre cornières formant les montants sur lesquels sont fixées une plaque de fond et une plaque de toit et ce container se caractérise en ce qu'il comprend deux faces fermées comportant chacune une plaque latérale munie de logements prévus pour recevoir les extrémités de barres support amovibles, des moyens de liaison étant prévus entre les barres support et les plaques.To this end, the transport container according to the invention comprises a standing frame with four angles forming the uprights on which are fixed a bottom plate and a roof plate and this container is characterized in that it comprises two closed faces each comprising a side plate provided with housings intended to receive the ends of removable support bars, connection means being provided between the support bars and the plates.

Ce container comprend en outre des moyens de blocage des barres en travers des faces ouvertes, ces moyens de blocage étant solidaires des cornières formant les montants.This container also comprises means for blocking the bars across the open faces, these means blocking being integral with the angles forming the uprights.

Selon un mode de réalisation particulier de l'invention, les barres ont une longueur L égale à la distance séparant les ailes intérieures de deux cornières d'une même côté.According to a particular embodiment of the invention, the bars have a length L equal to the distance separating the inner wings of two angles on the same side.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, les plaques latérales comprennent des trous oblongs et sont disposées à une distance l inférieure à la longueur L des barres.According to another characteristic of the invention, the side plates include oblong holes and are arranged at a distance l less than the length L of the bars.

Ces barres comprennent des goupilles faisant saillie radialement et disposées de telle façon que la distance séparant deux goupilles d'une même barre est supérieure à la longueur l.These bars include pins protruding radially and arranged in such a way that the distance separating two pins from the same bar is greater than the length l .

Les goupilles elles-mêmes ont une longueur comprise entre les petits et grands diamètres des trous oblongs.The pins themselves have a length between the small and large diameters of the oblong holes.

Selon un mode de réalisation particulier de l'invention, les plaques latérales sont fixées aux cornières par des vis sur un retour intérieur à 90° venu de pliage avec l'aile des cornières, côté face fermée, de façon que ces vis constituent les moyens de blocage des barres maintenues également par un retour intérieure à 90° venu de pliage avec l'aile de chaque cornière, du côté de la face ouverte.According to a particular embodiment of the invention, the side plates are fixed to the angles by screws on an internal return at 90 ° coming from folding with the wing of the angles, side closed side, so that these screws constitute the means for blocking the bars also maintained by an internal return at 90 ° which is folded with the wing of each angle, on the side of the open face.

Selon une autre caractéristique du container selon l'invention, la plaque de fond, les cornières opposées de part et d'autre des plaques latérales et ces plaques latérales forment des logements de stockage des barres inutilisées.According to another characteristic of the container according to the invention, the bottom plate, the opposite angles on either side of the side plates and these side plates form housing for storing unused bars.

Le container selon l'invention comprend également à la partie supérieure de chaque cornière une platine rapportée prévue pour recevoir les pieds d'un container identique lorsque ceux-ci sont gerbés.The container according to the invention also comprises at the upper part of each angle iron an attached plate designed to receive the feet of an identical container when these are stacked.

Des moyens support de documents et d'informations sont également prévus sur les plaques latérales.Document and information support means are also provided on the side plates.

L'invention est décrite ci-après selon un mode de réalisation particulier de l'invention, en regard des dessins annexés sur lesquels :

  • la figure 1 représente une vue en perspective du container selon l'invention,
  • la figure 2 représente une vue côté ouvert du container selon l'invention,
  • la figure 3 représente une vue côté fermé du container selon l'invention,
  • la figure 4 est une vue en coupe par un plan horizontal à mi-hauteur du container selon l'invention, et
  • la figure 5 est une vue de détail du montage des barres entre les cornières transversalement à la face ouverte.
The invention is described below according to a particular embodiment of the invention, with reference to the accompanying drawings in which:
  • FIG. 1 represents a perspective view of the container according to the invention,
  • FIG. 2 represents an open side view of the container according to the invention,
  • FIG. 3 represents a closed side view of the container according to the invention,
  • FIG. 4 is a sectional view through a horizontal plane at mid-height of the container according to the invention, and
  • Figure 5 is a detailed view of the mounting of the bars between the angles transversely to the open face.

Sur la figure 1, le container de transport selon l'invention comprend un bâti 10 comportant des cornières 12, une plaque de fond 14 et une plaque de toit 16.In FIG. 1, the transport container according to the invention comprises a frame 10 comprising angles 12, a bottom plate 14 and a roof plate 16.

L'ensemble est monté sur des pieds 18 prévus pour reposer sur le sol. Ce container comprend en outre deux faces ouvertes 20 et deux faces fermées 22.The assembly is mounted on feet 18 provided to rest on the ground. This container also comprises two open faces 20 and two closed faces 22.

Les faces fermées comprennent chacune une plaque latérale 24, munie de logements 26, prévus pour recevoir les extrémités 28 de barres transversales 30.The closed faces each include a side plate 24, provided with housings 26, designed to receive the ends 28 of transverse bars 30.

Cette barre comprend en outre des moyens de liaison 32 qui seront détaillés ultérieurement.This bar further comprises connecting means 32 which will be detailed later.

Les différents éléments sont maintenant détaillés en regard des figures 2, 3, 4 et 5 afin de faire apparaître les différentes pièces constituant ce container et surtout leur agencement.The different elements are now detailed with reference to Figures 2, 3, 4 and 5 in order to show the different parts constituting this container and especially their arrangement.

Ainsi, les cornières 12 comprennent deux ailes 34 du côté fermé et 36 du côté ouvert.Thus, the angles 12 include two wings 34 on the closed side and 36 on the open side.

Ces ailes se prolongent respectivement par des retours intérieurs 38 et 40 respectivement orientés vers l'intérieur, eux-mêmes suivis d'un prolongement 42 et 44 respectivement, disposés à 90° par rapport aux premiers retours 38 et 40.These wings are extended respectively by interior returns 38 and 40 respectively oriented inward, themselves followed by an extension 42 and 44 respectively, arranged at 90 ° relative to the first returns 38 and 40.

Dans ce mode de réalisation la distance d séparant l'extrémité du premier retour intérieur 40 de l'aile ouverte 36 de l'extrémité du second retour 42 de l'aile fermée 34 est sensiblement identique au diamètre des barres.In this embodiment, the distance d separating the end of the first internal return 40 of the open wing 36 from the end of the second return 42 of the closed wing 34 is substantially identical to the diameter of the bars.

Par ailleurs, sur le premier retour 38 de l'aile 34 du côté fermé, il est prévu des vis 46 qui assurent la liaison des plaques 24 du côté fermé 22 avec ces mêmes cornières.Furthermore, on the first return 38 of the wing 34 on the closed side, there are provided screws 46 which ensure the connection of the plates 24 on the closed side 22 with these same angles.

La longueur des vis 46 est telle que le corps de vis se prolonge au moins jusqu'au droit du second retour 44 de l'aile 36 du côté ouvert.The length of the screws 46 is such that the screw body extends at least to the right of the second return 44 of the wing 36 on the open side.

Sur la figure 5, on a représenté une barre 30 en position transversale par rapport à la face ouverte 20 ainsi que cela sera expliqué ultérieurement.In Figure 5, there is shown a bar 30 in transverse position relative to the open face 20 as will be explained later.

La plaque de fond 14 est une plaque métallique dont la résistance mécanique est prévue pour reprendre les efforts dûs à la charge introduite dans le container et elle sera munie, de façon connue, de renforts adéquats.The bottom plate 14 is a metal plate whose mechanical resistance is provided to take up the forces due to the load introduced into the container and it will be provided, in known manner, with adequate reinforcements.

Les pieds 18 sont également rapportés sur cette plaque 14 ainsi que les cornières dans les angles de cette plaque.The feet 18 are also attached to this plate 14 as well as the angles in the corners of this plate.

La plaque de toit 16 est fixée sur les quatre cornières et elle est munie dans chaque angle de plaques rapportées 48, prévues en tôle pliée, de forte résistance mécanique.The roof plate 16 is fixed to the four angles and it is provided in each angle with attached plates 48, provided in folded sheet, of high mechanical strength.

Dans la partie centrale de cette plaque de toit, il est prévu un élément 50 en bois de type contreplaqué qui a simplement comme rôle de venir obturer la partie centrale de la plaque de toit 16.In the central part of this roof plate, a plywood type element 50 is provided. which simply has the role of closing off the central part of the roof plate 16.

Les plaques latérales 24, mieux représentées sur la les figures 3 et 4 sont réalisées en métal et elles comprennent des trous 52, régulièrement répartis sur toute la hauteur et toute la largeur de la plaque.The side plates 24, better represented in FIGS. 3 and 4 are made of metal and they include holes 52, regularly distributed over the entire height and the entire width of the plate.

Dans la partie centrale, une nervure 54 permet de raidir l'ensemble de la plaque tandis que sur les bords latéraux, un pliage permet également de réaliser une nervure de renfort 56.In the central part, a rib 54 makes it possible to stiffen the entire plate while on the lateral edges, a folding also makes it possible to produce a reinforcing rib 56.

Cette nervure permet également de disposer le plan de cette plaque 24 en retrait vers l'intérieur du container de telle sorte que la distance l d'une plaque 24 à la plaque 24 opposée soit inférieure à la longueur L d'une barre qui correspond sensiblement à la distance séparant les faces intérieures des ailes 34 des côtés fermés des cornières 12.This rib also makes it possible to arrange the plane of this plate 24 set back towards the interior of the container so that the distance l from a plate 24 to the opposite plate 24 is less than the length L of a bar which corresponds substantially at the distance separating the inner faces of the wings 34 from the closed sides of the angles 12.

Les trous 52 sont des trous oblongs dont le grand diamètre est orienté suivant la verticale .
chaque barre 30 comprend à ses extrémités des goupilles 58, faisant saillie radialement par rapport à la barre et disposées aux extrémités de celles-ci de telle sorte que la distance séparant deux goupilles 58 d'une même barre soit comprise entre la distance l séparant deux plaques 24 munies de trous et L la longueur de la barre.The holes 52 are oblong holes whose large diameter is oriented along the vertical.
each bar 30 comprises at its ends pins 58, projecting radially with respect to the bar and arranged at the ends thereof so that the distance separating two pins 58 from the same bar is between the distance l separating two plates 24 provided with holes and L the length of the bar.

Sur la figure 4 on a représenté un vêtement 60 sur cintre suspendu à l'une des barres 30.FIG. 4 shows a garment 60 on a hanger suspended from one of the bars 30.

L'utilisation d'un tel container est décrite ci-après.The use of such a container is described below.

Les barres 30 sont stockées ainsi que cela est représenté sur les figures 1 et 4, entre les ailes 36 des cornières 12 du côté face ouverte et elles sont maintenues dans cet espace formant logement de stockage par les retours 40 et 44.The bars 30 are stored as shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, between the wings 36 of the angles 12 on the open face side and they are held in this space forming storage housing by the returns 40 and 44.

Lorsque ce container est utilisé pour le transport de paquets, les barres 30 sont extraites de leur logement de stockage, et quelques unes d'entre elles sont disposées en travers de la face ouverte, ainsi que cela est montré sur la figure 2, par inclinaison de la barre 30, puis remise à l'horizontale suivant le mouvement de la flèche.When this container is used for transporting packages, the bars 30 are extracted from their storage housing, and some of them are arranged across the open face, as shown in FIG. 2, by inclination of the bar 30, then reset to the horizontal according to the movement of the arrow.

La barre vient alors en appui sur les vis 46 et plus particulièrement sur les corps de vis qui se prolongent à l'intérieur des cornières 12 et ces barres sont maintenues dans le prolongement 42 du retour d'aile 38, de l'aile 34 du côté fermé, et par le prolongement 44 du retour d'aile 40 de l'aile 36 côté ouvert.The bar then comes to bear on the screws 46 and more particularly on the screw bodies which extend inside the angles 12 and these bars are held in the extension 42 of the wing return 38, of the wing 34 of the closed side, and by the extension 44 of the wing return 40 of the wing 36 open side.

La barre est en appui sur deux corps de vis 46 et bloquée en mouvement si bien qu'elle assure le blocage des paquets disposés dans le container sur l'une des faces ouvertes.The bar is supported on two screw bodies 46 and blocked in movement so that it blocks the packages arranged in the container on one of the open faces.

Le container est ensuite chargé de l'ensemble des paquets qu'il doit contenir puis la même opération avec les barres est renouvelée sur l'autre face ouverte de façon à les condamner et éviter tout déplacement des paquets hors du container par les faces ouvertes.The container is then loaded with all of the packages that it must contain, then the same operation with the bars is repeated on the other open face so as to condemn them and avoid any displacement of the packages out of the container by the open faces.

Les plaques 24 évitent tout mouvement des paquets transversalement.The plates 24 prevent any movement of the packages transversely.

Si le container doit être utilisé pour le transport de vêtements sur cintre, les barres 30 sont introduites entre les deux plaques 24 d'un même container transversalement et dans ce but, ainsi que cela est représenté sur la figure 2, la barre 30 est introduite à travers un trou 52 choisi en fonction du type de vêtements à supporter, longueur, largeur, épaisseur.If the container is to be used for transporting clothes on a hanger, the bars 30 are introduced between the two plates 24 of the same container transversely and for this purpose, as shown in FIG. 2, the bar 30 is introduced through a hole 52 chosen according to the type of clothing to be supported, length, width, thickness.

La barre 30 est introduite à travers ce trou 52 jusqu'à faire dépasser la goupille 58 à l'extérieur de la plaque, puis la barre 30, en suivant la flèche représentée sur cette figure 2 est déplacée en translation jusqu'à faire buter la première goupille 58 contre l'extérieur de la plaque 24 correspondante et à faire passer l'autre goupille 58 de l'autre extrémité à travers le trou 52 en vis à vis du premier trou 52.The bar 30 is introduced through this hole 52 until the pin 58 protrudes outside the plate, then the bar 30, following the arrow shown in this figure 2 is moved in translation until the first pin 58 against the outside of the corresponding plate 24 and passing the other pin 58 from the other end through the hole 52 opposite the first hole 52.

La barre est donc horizontale et les deux goupilles 58 bloquent tout mouvement de cette barre en translation.The bar is therefore horizontal and the two pins 58 block any movement of this bar in translation.

En effet, les goupilles 58 sont extérieures aux deux plaques 24 et évitent tout mouvement de la barre.Indeed, the pins 58 are external to the two plates 24 and avoid any movement of the bar.

La barre étant chargée, les déplacements vers le haut sont impossibles.The bar being loaded, upward movements are impossible.

Les vêtements sur cintre sont suspendus aux différentes barres, à différentes hauteurs, jusqu'à compléter la totalité du container et des barres 30 peuvent être disposées en travers des faces ouvertes, comme pour les colis, afin d'éviter tout balancement des vêtements à l'extérieur des containers.Clothes on hangers are suspended from different bars, at different heights, until the entire container is complete, and bars 30 can be placed across open faces, as for packages, to prevent the clothing from swaying. outside of containers.

On constate que les barres, du fait du positionnement des plaques 24 à une distance l l'une de l'autre, ne débordent pas des dimensions hors tout du container, ce qui permet de disposer ces containers par juxtaposition sans aucun risque d'accrochage.It is noted that the bars due to the positioning of the plate 24 at a distance l from each other, do not exceed overall dimensions of the container, which makes available these containers by juxtaposition without snagging .

Le déplacement de ces containers au moyen de chariots à fourches est facilité par le montage sur pieds, et les plaques de renfort 48 permettent de gerber les containers les uns sur les autres lors de stockages ou de déplacement, car les pieds 18 sont prévus pour coopérer avec les plaques de renfort 48 disposées sur les plaques de toit 16.The movement of these containers by means of forklifts is facilitated by mounting on feet, and the reinforcement plates 48 make it possible to stack the containers on top of each other during storage or movement, since the feet 18 are provided to cooperate with the reinforcement plates 48 arranged on the roof plates 16.

Selon une variante de l'invention, il est possible de disposer de moyens support de documents sur les plaques latérales, grâce à la multitude de trous qui est prévue, afin d'y placer les documents administratifs ou les étiquettes de liaison et de reconnaissance des différents containers.According to a variant of the invention, it is possible to have document support means on the side plates, thanks to the multitude of holes which is provided, in order to place the administrative documents or the connection and recognition labels of the documents. different containers.

On constate également que ces containers peuvent être fabriqués sans plaque latérale ni barre et utilisés de façon connue comme simple container à paquets et en fonction des développements ou des marchés, il suffit alors de faire réaliser des plaques qui sont boulonnées sur les cornières prévues à cet effet, plus des jeux de barres.We also note that these containers can be manufactured without side plate or bar and used in a known manner as a simple package container and depending on developments or markets, it suffices to have plates produced which are bolted to the angles provided for this purpose. indeed, more busbars.

Ainsi, il est possible d'adapter la flotte de containers en fonction des marchés moyennant des investissements faibles et des temps de montage très courts.It is therefore possible to adapt the fleet of containers to suit the markets with low investment and very short assembly times.

Le container selon l'invention présente une souplesse très importante dans son utilisation ce qui le rend attractif pour les transports modernes.The container according to the invention has a very significant flexibility in its use which makes it attractive for modern transport.

De façon à améliorer les capacités de chargement les barres (30) peuvent être à section ovale, ce qui augmente l'inertie en assurant une meilleure reprise des efforts verticaux.In order to improve the loading capacities, the bars (30) can be of oval section, which increases the inertia by ensuring better recovery of the vertical forces.

Ceci est important, vus les mouvements verticaux générés par le revêtement routier et le poids important de certains vêtements.This is important, given the vertical movements generated by the road surface and the heavy weight of certain garments.

Aussi, le container est adapté à des transports de vêtements lourds, ce qui contribue à un remplissage optimum de ces containers.Also, the container is suitable for transporting heavy clothing, which contributes to optimum filling of these containers.
