Die Vorrichtung zur Reinigung von Kleinladungsträgern 1 ist in einen Container 2 für den Straßen- und Schienenverkehr üblicher, transportabler Abmessungen eingebaut. Die erste Station 5 umfaßt eine Eingabe 4 für die Kleinladungsträger 1 und einen vertikalen Tunnel 3 mit einem vertikal umlaufenden Förderer 6 sowie Heizund Sprüheinrichtungen 7 bzw. 8 zum Einsprühen, Erwärmen und Einweichen der Kleinladungsträger 1 bzw. der an diesen haftenden Verunreinigungen, wie Reste von Konservierungsmitteln, fetthaltige Substanzen u.dgl.The device for cleaning small load carriers 1 is in a container 2 for road and rail traffic usual, portable dimensions installed. The first station 5 comprises an input 4 for the small load carriers 1 and a vertical tunnel 3 with a vertically rotating conveyor 6 and heating and Spray devices 7 and 8 for spraying, heating and soaking the small load carriers 1 and to these adhering contaminants, such as residues of Preservatives, fatty substances and the like.

Die Bedienungsperson stellt pro Takt einen Kleinladungsträger 1 in die Eingabe 4 bzw. Beladeöffnung der ersten Station 5 der Vorrichtung. Nach der Betätigung eines nicht gezeigten Starthebels werden die Kleinladungsträger 1 seitlich mit sternförmigen, kardanisch gelagerten Greifern 10 gespannt, die an den beiden parallen Umlaufketten 11 des Förderers 6 angebracht sind. Im Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig. 1 sind sieben Paare von Greifern 10 an den Umlaufketten 11 gegenüberliegend angeordnet. Danach werden mit einem nicht gezeigten pneumatischen Antrieb die Umlaufketten-11 des Förderers 6 getaktet. Die Kleinladungsträger 1 werden bei dauernder Drehung um die eigene bzw. Spannachse 12 durch den beheizten Tunnel 3 befördert, der mittels der an der Decke 13 des Containers 2 angeordneten Heizeinrichtungen 7, z.B. Strahler, beheizt ist. Die dauernde Drehung dient zur besseren Verteilung der Sprüh- und Reinigungsflüssigkeit und zu deren Eindringen auch in die Ecken der Kleinladungsträger 1.The operator places a small load carrier per cycle 1 in the input 4 or loading opening the first station 5 of the device. After actuation of a starting lever, not shown, are the Small load carriers 1 laterally with star-shaped, cardanic stored grippers 10 excited to the two parallel circulation chains 11 of the conveyor 6 attached are. 1 in the embodiment seven pairs of grippers 10 on the circulating chains 11 arranged opposite each other. Then with one pneumatic drive, not shown, the circulating chains-11 of the conveyor 6 clocked. The small load carriers 1 with continuous rotation around its own or clamping axis 12 transported through the heated tunnel 3, the by means of the arranged on the ceiling 13 of the container 2 Heaters 7, e.g. Heater, is heated. The constant rotation serves for better distribution of the Spray and cleaning liquid and for their penetration also in the corners of the small load carriers 1.

Eine Umdrehung eines Kleinladungsträger 1 erfolgt bei 250 mm Förderlänge des Förderers 6. Diese beträgt im vertikaler Richtung des Tunnels 3 etwa 2500 mm. Der Förderer 6 bzw. die Umlaufketten 11 machen im vertikalen Tunnel 3 nach Erreichen der Decke 13 des Containers 2 eine 90-Grad- Biegung, verlaufen dann ca.5OO mm gerade und machen danach eine weitere 90-Grad-Biegung zum Boden 53 des Containers 2. One rotation of a small load carrier 1 takes place at 250 mm conveyor length of the conveyor 6. This is in vertical direction of the tunnel 3 about 2500 mm. The Conveyor 6 and the circulating chains 11 make in vertical tunnel 3 after reaching the ceiling 13 of the Containers 2 a 90 degree bend, then run about 500 mm straight and then make another one 90 degree bend to bottom 53 of container 2.

Nach dem Start des Förderers 6 werden die Kleinladungsträger 1 über ein diagonal zur Mitte der Kleinladungsträger 1 ausgerichtetes Düsensystem der Sprüheinrichtung 8 mit einer Spül- und Reinigungsflüssigkeit eingesprüht. Diese ist eine 1,5 bis 2 prozentige Wasseremulsion, die aus einem auf ca. 650 °C aufgeheizten Behälter 9 mit ca. 2 bis 3 bar Druck durch das Düsensystem gepumpt wird.After the start of the conveyor 6, the small load carriers 1 via a diagonally to the center of the small load carriers 1 aligned nozzle system of the spray device 8 with a rinsing and cleaning liquid sprayed. This is a 1.5 to 2 percent Water emulsion made from a heated to approx. 650 ° C Container 9 with about 2 to 3 bar pressure through the Nozzle system is pumped.

Durch die Drehung um die Spannachse 12 wird erreicht, daß überschüssiges Reinigungsmittel nicht abtropft, sondern in die Hinterschneidungen der Kleinladungsträger 1 läuft. Dies ermöglicht gleichzeitig einen sparsamen Verbrauch des relativ teuren Reinigungsmittels. Der beheizte Tunnel 3 hat die Aufgabe, die Verunreinigungen der Kleinladungsträger 1 aufzuweichen. Die Einweichzeit richtet sich nach der eingestellten variablen Taktzeit des Förderers 6. Die Einweichzeit beträgt je nach Verschmutzung der Kleinladungsträger 1 zwischen 90 und 120 Sekunden.The rotation about the clamping axis 12 achieves that excess cleaning agent does not drip off, but in the undercuts of the small load carriers 1 is running. This enables one at the same time economical consumption of the relatively expensive cleaning agent. The heated tunnel 3 has the task of Soften contamination of small load carriers 1. The soaking time depends on the set one variable cycle time of the conveyor 6. The Soaking time is depending on the contamination of the small load carriers 1 between 90 and 120 seconds.

Nach Durchlaufen der Kleinladungsträger 1 durch den Tunnel 3 werden die Greifer 10 entriegelt und die Kleinladungsträger 1 aus den Umlaufketten 11 des Förderers 6 in die zweite Station 15 mittels einer Übergabeeinrichtung 14, z.B. Teleskopzylinder, geschoben.After passing through the small load carrier 1 through the Tunnel 3, the grippers 10 are unlocked and the Small load carriers 1 from the conveyor chains 11 6 into the second station 15 by means of a transfer device 14, e.g. Telescopic cylinder, pushed.

Die zweite Station 15 weist eine Wendeeinrichtung 16 für die Kleinladungsträger 1 und diese von innen und außen reinigende Bürstensätze 17 bzw. 18 auf.
