Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Palette bestehend aus in wenigstens zwei Ebenen angeordneten Tragelementen und Auflageelementen, wobei die Tragelemente in einer Ebene gleiche Höhen aufweisen und mit den Tragelementen bzw. Auflageelementen einer benachbarten Ebene verbunden sind.The invention relates to a pallet consisting of support elements and support elements arranged in at least two levels, the support elements having the same heights in one level and being connected to the support elements or support elements of an adjacent level.
Paletten sind für den Transport großer Gegenstände oder stapelbarer Waren unverzichtbar geworden. In der untersten Ebene sind die Tragelemente so angeordnet, daß Räume zum Einfahren von Gabelzinken eines Hebezeuges, beispielsweise eines Gabelstaplers, gebildet sind.Pallets have become indispensable for the transportation of large objects or stackable goods. In the lowest level, the support elements are arranged so that spaces for retracting forks of a hoist, for example a forklift, are formed.
Im Gebrauch sind derartige Paletten, deren Tragelemente aus Kanthölzer geeigneter Höhe und deren Auflageelement aus quer zu den Kanthölzern verlaufenden und mit den Kanthölzern vernagelten Brettern bestehen. Derartige Paletten, meist in der Größe von Europaletten, werden zwar durch Bildung von Palettenpools regelmäßig mehrfach verwendet, sind aber dennoch relativ teuer und bieten Entsorgungsprobleme.Pallets of this type are used, the supporting elements of which consist of squares of a suitable height and the support elements of which are made of boards which run transversely to the squares and are nailed to the squares. Such pallets, usually the size of euro pallets, are regularly used several times due to the formation of pallet pools, but are nevertheless relatively expensive and offer disposal problems.
Es sind auch Paletten aus anderen Materialien bekannt, wobei häufig aus einem flachen Material Tragelemente in Form von Tragfüßen durch Formung gebildet sind. Derartige Paletten weisen regelmäßig eine nur begrenzte Tragfähigkeit auf, sind regelmäßig aufwendig in der Herstellung und bieten - je nach Material - häufig Entsorgungsprobleme.Pallets made of other materials are also known, with support elements in the form of support feet often being formed from a flat material by molding. Such pallets generally have only a limited load-bearing capacity, are regularly complex to manufacture and, depending on the material, frequently have disposal problems.
Die der Erfindung zugrunde liegende Problemstellung besteht darin, eine Palette der eingangs erwähnten Art zu erstellen, die mit geringem Aufwand preisgünstig herstellbar ist, und sich problemlos entsorgen läßt.The problem underlying the invention is to create a range of the type mentioned, which is inexpensive to manufacture with little effort, and can be disposed of easily.
Dies Problem wird erfindungsgemäß bei einer Palette der eingangs erwähnten Art dadurch gelöst, daß die Tragelemente und/oder Auflageelemente wenigstens einer Ebene aus Abschnitten von Papprollen gebildet sind, wie sie als Rollenkerne von Papier-, Teppich- und ähnlichem Materialrollen Verwendung finden.This problem is solved according to the invention in a pallet of the type mentioned at the outset in that the support elements and / or support elements are formed on at least one level from sections of cardboard rolls such as are used as roll cores of paper, carpet and similar material rolls.
Der Erfindung liegt die Erkenntnis zugrunde, daß Papprollen, die als Rollenkerne für großflächige Papierrollen (beispielsweise Druckpapier), Teppichrollen oder ähnlichen Rollen dienen, eine hohe Stabilität und Wasserfestigkeit aufweisen, so daß mit derartigen Papprollen hergestellte Paletten auch im Freien mit langen Standzeiten verwendbar sind. Die Papprollen, die in großer Anzahl anfallen und allenfalls nach einer Sortierung wiederverwendbar wären, werden heute im Rahmen der Altpapieraufbereitung entsorgt. Durch die erfindungsgemäße Verwendung dieser Papprollen zur Ausbildung von Paletten, können die Papprollen nach ihrer Verwendung als Rollenkerne ohne weiteres (gegebenenfalls nach einer Ablängung auf eine gewünschte Länge) einem Zweitnutzen zugeführt werden, bevor die Entsorgung stattfindet. Die die Tragelemente und/oder Auflageelemente wenigstens einer Ebene bildenden Abschnitte von Papprollen können die Originallänge der Rollenkerne aufweisen oder auf die gewünschte Länge der Ebene der Palette abgeschnitten sein. In diesem Fall werden die Ebenen durch liegende, komplette Rollen gebildet. Es ist aber auch möglich, kürzere Abschnitte der Papprollen zu bilden, um damit stehende Abschnitte als Tragelemente zu verwenden, die beispielsweise Füße einer Palette bilden können. Es ist ferner möglich, die Papprollen in Längsrichtung zu teilen und so gebildete Halbschalen als Tragelemente und/oder (vorzugsweise) Auflageelemente zu verwenden. Selbstverständlich ist es auch möglich, kleinere Ausnehmungen in Längsrichtung der Papprolle vorzusehen, um eine verbesserte Auflagefläche zu erzielen. Dem gleichen Zweck kann eine in Längsrichtung vorgenommene Eindrückung in die Papprolle erfüllen, wobei die Eindrückung gegenüber der Ausnehmung eine höhere Eigenstabilität der Papprolle gewährleistet.The invention is based on the finding that cardboard rolls, which serve as roll cores for large paper rolls (for example printing paper), carpet rolls or similar rolls, have high stability and water resistance, so that pallets produced with such cardboard rolls can also be used outdoors with a long service life. The cardboard rolls, which occur in large numbers and would be reusable after sorting, are now disposed of as part of the waste paper processing. Through the use according to the invention of these cardboard rolls to form pallets, the cardboard rolls after their use as roll cores can easily be put to a second use (possibly after being cut to a desired length) before disposal takes place. The sections of cardboard rolls forming the support elements and / or support elements of at least one plane can have the original length of the roll cores or can be cut to the desired length of the plane of the pallet. In this case, the levels are formed by horizontal, complete roles. However, it is also possible to form shorter sections of the cardboard rolls in order to have sections standing as support elements to use, which can form the feet of a pallet, for example. It is also possible to divide the cardboard rolls in the longitudinal direction and to use half-shells thus formed as support elements and / or (preferably) support elements. Of course, it is also possible to provide smaller recesses in the longitudinal direction of the cardboard roll in order to achieve an improved contact surface. An indentation made in the longitudinal direction into the cardboard roll can serve the same purpose, the indentation ensuring greater intrinsic stability of the cardboard roll with respect to the recess.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung sind die Tragelemente und Auflageelemente aller Ebenen durch kreuzweise miteinander verbundene, liegend angeordnete Abschnitte von Papprollen gebildet. Bei einer Palette mit einer rechteckigen Grundfläche können die Papprollen dabei parallel zu den Seitenkanten ausgerichtet sein, so daß sich Papprollen verschiedener Ebenen im rechten Winkel kreuzen. Es ist aber auch möglich, die Papprollen einer Ebene parallel zueinander in Diagonalrichtung auszurichten, wodurch von 90° unterschiedliche Kreuzungswinkel entstehen können. In der bevorzugten Ausführungsform, die am häufigsten angewendet werden dürfte, weist die Palette zwei Ebenen auf. Das Vorsehen einer dritten oder weiterer Ebenen wird zur Erhöhung der Stabilität in Betracht zu ziehen sein.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the support elements and support elements of all levels are formed by crosswise interconnected, horizontally arranged sections of cardboard rolls. In the case of a pallet with a rectangular base, the cardboard rolls can be aligned parallel to the side edges, so that cardboard rolls of different levels cross at right angles. However, it is also possible to align the cardboard rolls of one plane parallel to one another in the diagonal direction, which can result in crossing angles other than 90 °. In the preferred embodiment that is most likely to be used, the palette has two levels. The provision of a third or further levels will have to be considered to increase stability.
Obwohl es grundsätzlich denkbar ist, beispielsweise für die Tragelemente der unteren Ebene Papprollen mit einem größeren Durchmesser einzusetzen als für die Auflageelemente der oberen Ebene, kann es aus Gründen der Lagehalterung vorteilhaft sein, alle Tragelemente und Auflageelemente durch Papprollen gleichen Durchmessers zu bilden.Although it is basically conceivable to use cardboard rolls with a larger diameter for the support elements of the lower level than for the support elements of the upper level, it may be advantageous for reasons of positional support to form all support elements and support elements by means of cardboard rolls of the same diameter.
Die Verbindung von sich kreuzenden Tragelementen bzw. Auflageelementen kann in jeder herkömmlichen, geeigneten Art erfolgen, also durch Heften, Nageln, Verschrauben, Verkleben, Binden mit Draht, Klammern, Verwendung von Spannbändern usw. Dabei kann es zweckmäßig sein, die Papprollen im Bereich der Kreuzungspunkte mit Elementen einer benachbarten Ebene mit lagefixierenden Ausnehmungen bzw. Eindrücken zu versehen. Dadurch werden die Anforderungen an die Stabilität der Verbindung deutlich herabgesetzt.The connection of crossing support elements or support elements can be done in any conventional, suitable way, i.e. by stapling, nailing, screwing, gluing, binding with wire, clips, using tensioning straps, etc. It may be appropriate to use the cardboard rolls in the area of Crossing points with elements to provide an adjacent level with position-fixing recesses or impressions. This significantly reduces the requirements for the stability of the connection.
Die Ausnehmungen bzw. Eindrückungen in einer Papprolle können dabei in Längsrichtung des zu verbindenden Elements der benachbarten Ebene oder in einem Winkel dazu eine zylindrische Form oder eine Keilform aufweisen, um die Lagefixierung zu bewirken.The recesses or indentations in a cardboard roll can have a cylindrical shape or a wedge shape in the longitudinal direction of the element of the adjacent plane to be connected or at an angle to this, in order to fix the position.
Mit Vorteil ist auch die Verwendung von Verbindungselementen möglich, die sich kreuzende Papprollen benachbarter Lagen teilweise umfassen und mit diesen verbunden sind. Die Verbindung kann dabei zweckmäßigerweise dadurch erfolgen, daß auf die jeweilige Papprolle Schenkel des Verbindungselements klemmend aufgeschoben werden, so daß die Papprolle bis über den größten Durchmesser hinaus umgriffen wird.Advantageously, the use of connecting elements is also possible, which partially encompass cardboard rolls of adjacent layers and are connected to them. The connection can expediently take place in that limbs of the connecting element are pushed onto the respective cardboard roll so that the cardboard roll is gripped beyond the largest diameter.

Zur Aufnahme von nebeneinander angeordneten Produkten kleinerer Auflageflächen müßten zusätzliche Papprollen 2 in der Auflageebene Verwendung finden, wobei gegebenenfalls die Papprollen 2 auch dicht an dicht angeordnet sein können.The pallet shown in FIG. 1 is suitable for transporting objects with a base area that essentially corresponds to the length of the
Figur 2 zeigt eine Ausführungsform, die durch Vergrößerung der Anzahl der Papprollen 1 als Tragelemente in der unteren Ebene und Vergrößerung der Papprollen 2 als Auflageelemente in der oberen Ebene eine höhere Stabilität und eine verbesserte Auflagefläche bieten.FIG. 2 shows an embodiment which, by increasing the number of
In beiden Beispielen sind für die Papprollen 1,2 Papprollen gleicher Art, das heißt mit gleicher Stabilität und gleichem Durchmesser, eingesetzt worden.In both examples, 1.2 cardboard rolls of the same type, that is to say with the same stability and the same diameter, were used for the cardboard rolls.
Es kann zweckmäßig sein, die Papprollen 1,2 im Bereich der Kreuzungspunkte mit einer zylindrischen Ausnehmung a, einer keilförmigen (dreieckähnlichen) Ausnehmung b oder einer beispielsweise zylindrischen Eindrückung c zu versehen, um die relative Lage sich kreuzenden Papprollen 1,2 zu fixieren. Während die Ausnehmungen a, b durch entsprechende Ausschnitte aus den Papprollen 1,2 hergestellt sind, wird die Eindrückung c ohne Materialentfernung durch Eindrücken hergestellt.It may be expedient to provide the
Figur 4 zeigt ein Verbindungselement 3 mit zwei Klammern 4,5, die jeweils aus einem Zylinderausschnitt bestehen, die sich etwas über den größten Durchmesser erstrecken, als durch Klemmung auf zylindrischen Papprollen 1,2 befestigbar sind. Die beiden Klammern 4,5 sind mit einem üblichen Verbindungsmittel 6 miteinander verbunden, wobei durch die Verbindung die relative Ausrichtung der Klammern 4,5 (beispielsweise senkrecht zueinander) festgelegt oder auch eine gelenkige Verbindung realisiert sein kann. Bei der Verwendung eines rein klemmenden Verbindungselements 3 können die Papprollen zur Entsorgung in einfacher Weise von den Verbindungselementen getrennt werden, so daß eine einfache Materialtrennung erfolgen kann.FIG. 4 shows a connecting
Reicht die Verbindungskraft durch die Klemmwirkung der Klammern 4,5 nicht aus, kann zusätzlich eine Fixierung mit durch vorbereitete Durchgangslöcher 7 ragende Stifte aus geeignetem Material erfolgen, die in die Papprollen 1,2 eindringen. Auch bei dieser Ausführungsform wird im allgemeinen eine Materialtrennung leicht möglich sein.If the connecting force is not sufficient due to the clamping action of the
