Description

Die Neuerung betrifft einen Palettenbehälter für Transport und Lagerung von Flüssigkeiten, bei dem ein Kunststoffbehälter auf einer Palette in einem Gitterkorb aus Metall angeordnet ist und der Gitterkorb über die Palette geerdet ist.The innovation relates to a pallet container for the transport and storage of liquids, in which a plastic container is arranged on a pallet in a metal mesh basket and the mesh basket is grounded via the pallet.

Die bekannten Palettenbehälter dieser Art weisen einen Gitterkorb mit einem scholenförmigen Boden aus Blech auf, der auf einer ein Untergestell bildenden Stahlpalette montiert ist. Über die Stahlpalette erfolgt eine Ableitung etwa entstehender elektrostatischer Ladungen in den Boden, im Falle gestapelter Palettenbehälter in den Gitterkorb des nächstunteren PalettenbehältersThe known pallet container of this type have a mesh basket with a scholastic base made of sheet metal, which is mounted on a steel frame forming a base. About the steel pallet is a derivation of any resulting electrostatic charges in the ground, in the case of stacked pallet container in the mesh basket of the next lower pallet container

Aus der EP 1 357 052 , die unter Art. 54(3) EPÜ fällt ist, ein Palettenbehälter bekannt. Der bekannte Palettenbehälter weist als Hauptbauteile einen Innenbehälter aus Kunststoff mit vier Seitenwänden, einem unteren als Ablaufboden ausgebildeten Boden und einem oberen Boden mit einen durch einen Schraubdeckel verschließbaren Einfüllstutzen sowie einen unterem Auslaufstutzen mit einer Entnahmearmatur, einen Außenmantel aus Gitterstäbe aus Metall, einen an dem Außenmantel befestigten Schutzdeckel aus Metall mit einer mittigen Zugangöffnung zu dem Einfüllstutzen des Innenbehälters und ein palettenartiges Untergestell zum Abstützen des Kunststoffinnenbehälters auf.From the EP 1 357 052 , which falls under Art. 54 (3) EPC, a pallet container is known. The well-known pallet container has as main components an inner container made of plastic with four side walls, a lower designed as a drain bottom and an upper floor with a closable by a screw filler neck and a lower outlet nozzle with a removal fitting, an outer sheath of metal bars, one on the outer sheath fixed protective metal cover with a central access opening to the filler neck of the inner container and a pallet-like base for supporting the plastic inner container on.

Aus der DE 201 07 962 U ist ein weiterer Palettenbehälter zum Transport und/oder zur Lagerung eines Pulverigen oder flüssigen Mediums bekannt. Der bekannte Palettenbehälter weist einem weitgehend formstabilen, oben offenen und unten palettenartig ausgebildeten Außenbehälter für einen an seiner Innenflache anliegenden, bedarfsweise durch ein am Außenbehälter anschließbares Deckelement auf, wobei zumindest der Innenbehälter eine Wandung aus Kunststoff besitzt and die aus Kunststoff bestehenden Teile der Palettenbehälter an Ihrer Außenflache mindestens eine elektrisch leitende Schicht aufweisen and elektrisch leitend miteinander verbunden sind.From the DE 201 07 962 U Another pallet container for transporting and / or storing a powdered or liquid medium is known. The well-known pallet container has a largely dimensionally stable, open at the top and bottom pallet-like outer container for a voltage applied to its inner surface, if necessary by a connectable to the outer container cover element, wherein at least the inner container has a plastic wall and made of plastic parts of the pallet container on your Outer surface have at least one electrically conductive layer and are electrically conductively connected to each other.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen weiteren Palettenbehälter der eingangs genannten Art zur Verfügung zu stellen.The invention has for its object to provide a further pallet container of the type mentioned.

Bei dem Palettenbehälter gemäß der Neuerung besteht die Palette aus einem nichtleitenden Material und an der Palette ist eine der Erdung dienende elektrisch leitende Verbindung zu einem an der Unterseite der Palette vorgesehenen Kontakt zur Bodenberührung und einem bei Stapelung des Palettenbehälters wirksamen Kontakt zur Berührung des darunter befindlichen Gitterkorbes eingerichtet.In the pallet container according to the invention, the pallet is made of a non-conductive material and on the pallet is an earth connection electrically conductive connection to a provided on the underside of the pallet contact with the ground contact and an effective in stacking the pallet container contact for touching the underlying grate basket set up.

Damit ist die, bisher nicht gesehene, Möglichkeit eröffnet, auch Palettenbehälter mit Holz- oder Kunststoffpaletten in gegen Funkenbildung infolge elektrostatischer Ladungen gesicherter Ausführung herzustellen.This opens up the possibility, previously unseen, of also producing pallet containers with wooden or plastic pallets in a form secured against sparking as a result of electrostatic charges.

Gemäß der Erfindung ist die leitende Verbindung in Form eines gemeinsamen Leiterstreifens für die beiden Kontakte, an der Außenseite der Palette entlang geführt.According to the invention, the conductive connection in the form of a common conductor strip for the two contacts, guided along the outside of the pallet along.

Diese Art der Verbindung erscheint zwar in gewisser Weise umständlicher als die, gleichfalls mögliche, Verbindung des Gitterkorbes mit dem Boden durch einen direkt durch die Palette geführten und ggf. mit seinem Ende den Kontakt bildenden Stift, einen Draht o.ä.. Sie ist aber in verschiedenen Beziehungen vorteilhafter. Insbesondere ist sie weitgehend sichtbar und auf ihre Funktionsfähigkeit kontrollierbar, besonders im Falle des Stapelns der Palettenbehälter.Although this type of connection appears in some ways more cumbersome than the, also possible, connection of the mesh basket to the ground by a guided directly through the pallet and possibly with its end forming the contact pin, a wire, etc. It is more advantageous in different relationships. In particular, it is largely visible and controllable on its operability, especially in the case of stacking the pallet container.

Sie ist auch bei unsachgemäßer Behandlung des Palettenbehälters, wie elastischer oder auch bleibender Verbiegung des Gitterkorbes durch Anstoß, wenig abrissgefährdet, jedenfalls in der bevorzugten Ausgestaltung, dass sie an der Oberseite der Palette unmittelbar unter dem Gitterkorb eingeklemmt ist, so dass der Gitterkorb auf ihr verrutschen kann, ohne den Kontakt zu verlieren. Nötigenfalls kann die Klemmung einfach durch Eintreiben eines flachen Metallstückes, etwa einer kleinen Münze, wieder hergestellt werden.It is also in case of improper handling of the pallet container, such as elastic or permanent bending of the mesh basket by impact, little risk of demolition, at least in the preferred embodiment that it is clamped at the top of the pallet immediately under the mesh basket, so that the mesh basket slip on her can, without losing contact. If necessary, the clamping can be restored simply by driving a flat metal piece, such as a small coin.

Eine besonders vorteilhafte Ausführungsform des Leiterstreifens besteht in einem vorgebogenen, im ganzen U-förmigen Blechteil.A particularly advantageous embodiment of the conductor strip consists in a pre-bent, in the whole U-shaped sheet metal part.

Das Blechteil ist robust und leicht zu montieren.The sheet metal part is robust and easy to assemble.

Grundsätzlich könnte der Leiterstreifen aber auch aus einem leitfähigen Kunststoff oder einem Auftrag aus leitfähigem Material bestehen. In diesem Falle sollte er an seiner Auflagefläche auf dem Boden mit einer Auflage aus einem abriebfesten leitenden Material, vorzugsweise Metall, versehen sein.In principle, the conductor strip could also consist of a conductive plastic or an order of conductive material. In this case, it should be provided at its bearing surface on the ground with a support made of an abrasion-resistant conductive material, preferably metal.

Eine besonders vorteilhafte Weiterbildung der Erfindung besteht darin, sie an einem Palettenbehälter anzuwenden, bei dem gemäß weiterer Erfindung der Gitterkorb selbst keinen Boden aufweist und die Oberfläche der Palette mindestens gitterförmig leitend gemacht, etwa durch Auftragen eines leitfähigen Lackes oder Versehen mit einem leitenden Belag, und mit der Einrichtung zur leitenden Verbindung leitend verbunden ist.A particularly advantageous embodiment of the invention is to apply them to a pallet container, according to another invention, the mesh basket itself has no bottom and made the surface of the pallet at least lattice-like conductive, such as by applying a conductive lacquer or providing a conductive coating, and is conductively connected to the device for conductive connection.

Die leitende Verbindung ist gerade in Kombination mit dem Auftrag oder Belag der Palette besonders zweckmäßig. Der Leiterstreifen o.a. kann an der Oberseite der Palette einfach auf den Auftrag oder Belag aufgelegt und auf diesem in der oben schon erwähnten Weise unter dem Gitterkorb eingeklemmt werden.The conductive connection is particularly useful in combination with the application or coating of the pallet. The conductor strip o.a. can simply be placed on top of the pallet on the job or covering and clamped on this in the manner already mentioned under the mesh basket.

Die vollständigste Kombination der Einrichtung zur leitenden Verbindung mit dem Auftrag oder Belag besteht darin, diese Einrichtung als eine Fortsetzung des Auftrages oder Belages zu bilden. Sie könnte insbesondere dann auch auf größerer Breite als nur in Gestalt eines Streifens und/oder in Form vieler Streifen an der Seite oder mehreren Seiten der Palette heruntergezogen werden.The most complete combination of the means for conducting connection with the application or coating is to form this device as a continuation of the order or coating. In particular, it could then be pulled down over a greater width than just in the form of a strip and / or in the form of many strips on the side or on several sides of the pallet.

Die beiden Kontakte wird man in der Regel mindestens zweifach einrichten an verschiedenen Stellen der Palette, beispielsweise jeweils nahe Ecken der Palette, um die Bodenberührung bzw. die Berührung des darunter befindlichen Gitterkorbes sicherzustellen.As a rule, the two contacts are set up at least twice at different points of the pallet, for example close corners of the pallet in each case, in order to ensure the ground contact or the contact of the grid basket underneath.

Im gleichen Sinne wird als weitere Ausgestaltung vorgeschlagen, mindestens einen der beiden Kontakte federnd auszubilden.In the same sense is proposed as a further embodiment, at least one of the two contacts form resilient.

Bei entsprechender Ausbildung der Unterseite der Palette und der Oberseite des Gitterkorbes könnten ggf. der Kontakt zur Bodenberührung und der Kontakt zur Berührung des darunter befindlichen Gitterkorbes derselbe sein.With appropriate formation of the underside of the pallet and the top of the mesh basket could possibly be the same contact with the ground contact and the contact to the touch of the underlying mesh basket.

Ein ggf. auf den Palettenbehälter gesetzter gleicher Palettenbehälter liegt unter Zentrierung durch die rückversetzten Kufenleisten 16 mit dem Klotz 15 und den weiteren Klötzen auf dem obersten waagerechten Gitterstab 19 auf. Dieser wird dabei von dem vor der Kröpfung liegenden, einen Kontakt 20 zur Berührung eines darunter befindlichen Gitterkorbes bildenden, Abschnitt des Schenkels 13 berührt, so dass auch der aufgesetzte Palettenbehälter auf dem Wege über den darunter befindlichen geerdet ist usw..An optionally set to the pallet container same pallet container is centered by the recessed skids 16 with the block 15 and the other blocks on the top horizontal grid bar 19. This is thereby touched by the front of the crank lying, a contact 20 for contacting an underlying grating basket forming portion of the leg 13, so that the patch pallet container is grounded on the way to the underlying, etc ..

Statt einer Holzpalette kommt z.B. auch eine Kunststoffpalette in Betracht.Instead of a wooden pallet, e.g. also a plastic pallet into consideration.

In Fig. 3 ist das Erdungsteil 10 durch ein, gleichfalls aus einem Blechstreifen bestehendes, etwas anders gestaltetes und angebrachtes Erdungsteil 21 ersetzt.In Fig. 3 is the grounding member 10 by a, also consisting of a sheet metal strip, slightly differently designed and attached grounding part 21 replaced.

Das Erdungsteil 21 ist bei 22 und 23 angeschraubt, jedoch unter Anlage seines unteren Schenkels 24 ausschließlich an der Kufenleiste 16, d.h. von deren Ende her. Der untere Schenkel 24 ist mit einer Auswölbung 25 geformt. Diese bildet einen Kontakt 26 zur Bodenberührung und außerdem eine Zentrierung für das Stapeln. Der in der Zeichnung rechts neben der Auswölbung befindliche Abschnitt des Schenkels 24 dient als Kontakt 27 zur Berührung eines darunter befindlichen Gitterkorbes.The grounding member 21 is screwed at 22 and 23, but under rest of its lower leg 24 exclusively on the skid bar 16, i. from the end. The lower leg 24 is formed with a bulge 25. This forms a contact 26 for ground contact and also a centering for stacking. The section of the leg 24 located to the right of the bulge in the drawing serves as a contact 27 for contacting a grid basket located thereunder.

Die Verschraubung 22 befindet sich an diesem Abschnitt, der Endabschnitt 28 auf der anderen Seite der Auswölbung 25 ist unbefestigt. Die Auswölbung 25 mit dem Kontakt 26 lässt sich daher unter Verschiebung des Endabschnitts 28 etwas federnd eindrücken.The screw 22 is located at this section, the end portion 28 on the other side of the bulge 25 is unpaved. The bulge 25 with the contact 26 can therefore be pressed slightly resiliently with displacement of the end portion 28.

In Fig. 4 erstreckt sich als Erdungsteil ein Bolzen 29 von dem untersten waagerechten Gitterstab 7 durch die verschiedenen Lagen der Holzpalette 1 hindurch bis an deren Unterseite und endet dort mit einem flachen Kopf 30. Der Kopf 30 ist mit seiner Unterseite der Kontakt 31 zur Bodenberührung und kann seitlich, an seinem Umfang, als Kontakt 32 zur Berührung eines darunter befindlichen Gitterkorbes dienen.In Fig. 4 extends as a grounding part of a bolt 29 from the bottom horizontal bar 7 through the various layers of the wooden pallet 1 through to the bottom and ends there with a flat head 30. The head 30 is with its bottom, the contact 31 for ground contact and can laterally at its periphery, serve as a contact 32 for contacting an underlying grate basket.

In Fig. 5 ist die Holzpalette 1 mit einem Drahtnetz 33 überzogen. Das Drahtnetz bedeckt als leitender Belag die Oberfläche der Holzpalette und zieht sich an deren Seiten nach unten und dann einige Zentimeter auf die Unterseite. Hier sind die Netzdrähte 34 unter den Klötzen 15 und Kufenleisten 16 unmittelbar die beiden Kontakte oder, wie an den Seiten, die leitende Verbindung von der Oberfläche zu, gesondert eingerichteten, Kontakten.In Fig. 5 the wooden pallet 1 is covered with a wire mesh 33. The wire mesh covers as a conductive coating the surface of the wooden pallet and pulls down the sides and then a few inches on the bottom. Here are the power wires 34 under the blocks 15 and skids 16 directly the two contacts or, as on the sides, the conductive connection from the surface to separately furnished, contacts.

Statt eines Drahtnetzes kommt auch ein Kunststoffnetz mit in die Netzfäden eingearbeiteten Drähten in Betracht.Instead of a wire mesh is also a plastic mesh with incorporated into the net threads wires into consideration.

In Fig. 6 ist die Holzpalette 1 gitterförmig mit Kunststoffstreifen 35 beklebt, in die ein Draht 36 eingelegt ist. Die Kunststoffstreifen 36 sind am Palettenrand auf die Klötze 15 und dann noch einmal auf die Unterseite der Palette umgelegt, wo sie an Kontaktstücken für die beiden Kontakte zur Bodenberührung bzw. Berührung eines darunter befindlichen Gitterkorbes enden. Mit diesen ist der Draht 36 verbunden.In Fig. 6 the wooden pallet 1 is glued lattice-shaped with plastic strips 35, in which a wire 36 is inserted. The plastic strips 36 are folded on the pallet edge on the blocks 15 and then once again on the underside of the pallet, where they end at contact pieces for the two contacts for touching the ground or touching a grid basket located underneath. With these, the wire 36 is connected.
