Abstract

The pallet has a base (2) supported by support blocks (3). Three transversal strips (4) are parallel to each other, where each strip receives the support blocks. A lateral fixation unit (6) is provided for fixation of each transversal strip and allows the placement of one of the support blocks in the neighborhood of one of longitudinal edges (7) of the base. The longitudinal edges are provided in a direction same as that of forks of a truck that lifts the pallet. The unit (6) is formed by the strips (4) supported on a rim (9) of the edges.

Description

PALETTE A FIXATION DE BANDES LATERALEPALLET WITH SIDE BAND FIXATION

La présente invention concerne une palette de type comprenant une base supportée par au moins quatre plots de support et au moins deux bandes transversales de matière souple définissant des créneaux et assurant, d'une part, le logement desdits plots et, d'autre part, l'assujettissement entre les plots et la base.  The present invention relates to a pallet of type comprising a base supported by at least four support pads and at least two transverse strips of flexible material defining crenellations and ensuring, on the one hand, the housing of said pads and, on the other hand, the subjection between the studs and the base.

La palette sera avantageusement prévue pour supporter les charges pour 10 des durées courtes ou longues, ces charges pouvant être de nature très diverses et de formes empilables ou non.  The pallet will advantageously be designed to support the loads for short or long durations, these loads being of a very different nature and of stackable or non-stackable shapes.

Ladite palette pourra être déplacée à l'aide de chariots de manutention et notamment, de type à fourches.  Said pallet may be moved using forklifts and in particular, fork type.

On connaît déjà un certain nombre de ce type de palettes de conception 15 économique simple ou robuste, résistant bien à l'humidité par les documents FR-2.556.692 et FR-2.786.160.  A number of this type of pallets of economic design, which are simple or robust and resistant to moisture, are already known from documents FR-2.556.692 and FR-2.786.160.

Une telle palette est obtenue en découpant dans la base rigide plusieurs alignements de trous débouchants, en disposant au dessus de chacun de ces alignements, une bande de matériau pliable de largeur inférieure ou égale à la largeur des trous débouchants, en enfonçant ladite bande dans chaque trou de façon à former, par pliage, un créneau dans lequel on insère un patin servant de plot de support.  Such a pallet is obtained by cutting in the rigid base several alignments of through holes, by placing above each of these alignments, a band of foldable material of width less than or equal to the width of the through holes, by pressing said strip into each hole so as to form, by folding, a slot in which is inserted a pad serving as a support pad.

Pour la fixation de la bande, on vient placer les extrémités de la bande à travers deux fentes successives disposées entre le plot et le bord de la base rigide.  For fastening the strip, the ends of the strip are placed through two successive slots arranged between the stud and the edge of the rigid base.

Malgré tous les avantages procurés en terme de légèreté, robustesse, la palette décrite dans ces deux documents français présente des inconvénients.  Despite all the advantages provided in terms of lightness, robustness, the palette described in these two French documents has disadvantages.

En effet, pour le transport de ces palettes, on a vu plus haut qu'il était avantageux d'utiliser des chariots à fourches.  Indeed, for the transport of these pallets, we have seen above that it was advantageous to use forklifts.

L'écartement entre les fourches des chariots est généralement standard de 30 la même manière que les dimensions de la base de la palette.  The spacing between the forks of the carriages is generally standard in the same manner as the dimensions of the base of the pallet.

2890045 2 Il a été constaté par la demanderesse que l'écartement entre les plots dans le sens de la largeur de la palette laissait une marge réduite à l'utilisateur pour le positionnement des fourches de l'élévateur.  It was found by the Applicant that the spacing between the pads in the direction of the width of the pallet left a margin reduced to the user for the positioning of the forks of the elevator.

Lorsque la manipulation de la palette se fait par des systèmes automatisés, 5 le chargement des palettes et leur déplacement ne causent aucun problème particulier.  When the handling of the pallet is done by automated systems, the loading of the pallets and their displacement do not cause any particular problem.

Par contre, lorsque les opérations sont réalisées manuellement, il y a un risque de mauvais positionnement des fourches, ces dernières venant en butée contre les patins.  On the other hand, when the operations are carried out manually, there is a risk of incorrect positioning of the forks, the latter coming into abutment against the pads.

En cas de chocs importants ou répétés, les plots peuvent être déformés ou arrachés et ne peuvent plus par conséquent jouer correctement leur rôle de support de base rigide.  In case of large or repeated shocks, the studs can be deformed or torn off and can therefore no longer correctly play their role of rigid base support.

Par ailleurs, une réduction de la largeur des plots pour augmenter la distance entre les plots n'est pas envisageable puisqu'elle entraînerait des problèmes de stabilité et une charge surfacique sur chaque plot trop élevée.  In addition, a reduction in the width of the studs to increase the distance between the studs is not conceivable since it would cause stability problems and a surface charge on each stud too high.

Il a été également constaté par la demanderesse que les bords de la base rigide s'étendant à l'extérieur du rectangle formé par les plots de support pouvaient fléchir lorsque la charge supportée s'étend sur cette zone extérieure et par conséquent, engendrer des déformations au niveau de la base de la palette.  It has also been found by the Applicant that the edges of the rigid base extending outside the rectangle formed by the support pads could bend when the supported load extends over this outer area and therefore generate deformations at the base of the pallet.

Le but de la présente invention est de proposer une palette palliant aux inconvénients précités.  The object of the present invention is to provide a pallet overcoming the aforementioned drawbacks.

L'invention a ainsi pour objet une palette dans laquelle l'écartement entre le plot central et le plot latéral est suffisamment important pour permettre le passage des fourches d'un chariot élévateur avec une marge de manoeuvre accrue.  The invention thus relates to a pallet in which the spacing between the central stud and the side stud is large enough to allow the passage of the forks of a forklift with increased maneuverability.

Un autre but de la présente invention est de proposer une palette dont les opérations de fabrication peuvent être automatisées.  Another object of the present invention is to provide a pallet whose manufacturing operations can be automated.

Un autre but de la présente invention est de proposer une palette dont les différents éléments constitutifs peuvent être remplacés en cas de dégradations.  Another object of the present invention is to provide a pallet whose different components can be replaced in case of damage.

Un autre but de la présente invention est de proposer une palette dans laquelle les zones latérales s'étendant au-delà de la zone formée par les plots de support sont de très faibles dimensions ou nulles permettant d'éviter le fléchissement de ces bords et leurs dégradations.  Another object of the present invention is to propose a pallet in which the lateral zones extending beyond the zone formed by the support pads are of very small or zero dimensions, making it possible to avoid the deflection of these edges and their degradations.

L'invention a ainsi pour objet une palette du type comprenant: une base supportée par au moins quatre plots de support; au moins deux bandes transversales de manière souple, définissant des créneaux, assurant, d'une part, le logement desdits plots et, d'autre part, l'assujettissement entre les plots et la base.  The invention thus relates to a pallet of the type comprising: a base supported by at least four support pads; at least two transversely flexible strips, defining slots, ensuring, on the one hand, the housing of said pads and, secondly, the subjection between the pads and the base.

ladite palette comportant, selon l'invention, pour une bande et un plot donnés, des moyens de fixation latérale de la bande autorisant un placement d'un plot de support au voisinage d'un bord longitudinal de la base.  said pallet comprising, according to the invention, for a band and a given pad, lateral fastening means of the strip allowing placement of a support pad in the vicinity of a longitudinal edge of the base.

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparaîtront plus clairement à la lecture de la description ci-après d'un exemple préféré de réalisation dans laquelle la description n'est donnée qu'à titre d'exemple non limitatif et en référence aux dessins annexés parmi lesquels: la figure 1 représente une vue schématique en perspective d'un exemple de palette conforme à l'invention; - la figure 2 représente en vue de côté un exemple de palette de la figure 1.  Other features and advantages of the invention will appear more clearly on reading the following description of a preferred embodiment in which the description is given by way of non-limiting example and with reference to attached drawings among which: Figure 1 shows a schematic perspective view of an example of pallet according to the invention; FIG. 2 is a side view of an example of a pallet of FIG.

En se reportant particulièrement à la figure 1, on voit que la palette 1 20 comprend une base 2 supportée par des plots de support 3.  Referring particularly to FIG. 1, it can be seen that the pallet 1 comprises a base 2 supported by support pads 3.

Avantageusement, on prévoira que la base comporte de quatre à neuf plots 3 en fonction des dimensions de la palette 1 et des conditions d'utilisation de cette palette 1.  Advantageously, it will be provided that the base comprises from four to nine studs 3 depending on the dimensions of the pallet 1 and the conditions of use of this pallet 1.

Dans l'exemple de la figure 1, une des bandes 4 à savoir la bande centrale est mise en évidence en noir.  In the example of Figure 1, one of the bands 4 namely the central band is highlighted in black.

Dans la figure 1, la palette 1 comporte trois bandes 4 sensiblement parallèles entre elles et logeant chacun deux plots 3 au voisinage des bords longitudinaux 7 de la base 2 et un plot central 3.  In FIG. 1, the pallet 1 comprises three strips 4 substantially parallel to each other and each housing two studs 3 in the vicinity of the longitudinal edges 7 of the base 2 and a central stud 3.

Ladite palette comporte également au moins deux bandes transversales 4 de maintien souple.  Said pallet also comprises at least two transverse strips 4 of flexible retention.

De manière connue et notamment des documents FR-2.556.692 et FR-2.786.160, ces bandes 4 définissent des créneaux 5 assurant, d'une part, le logement des plots 3 et, d'autre part, l'assujettissement entre lesdits plots 3 et la base 2.  In known manner and in particular documents FR-2.556.692 and FR-2.786.160, these strips 4 define slots 5 ensuring, on the one hand, the housing of the pads 3 and, on the other hand, the subjection between said pads 3 and base 2.

Selon l'invention, on prévoit des moyens de fixation latérale 6 de chaque bande transversale 4, ces moyens de fixation latérale de la bande autorisant, pour une bande et un plot donnés, le placement d'un plot de support 3 au voisinage d'un bord longitudinal 7 de la base 2.  According to the invention, there are provided lateral fastening means 6 of each transverse strip 4, these lateral fixing means of the strip allowing, for a given strip and a pad, the placement of a support pad 3 in the vicinity of a longitudinal edge 7 of the base 2.

A ce sujet, par convention, on désignera par bords longitudinaux 7, les bords qui seront sensiblement dans la même direction que celle des fourches du chariot venant soulever la palette 1. Les bords transversaux 8 correspondront aux bords qui viendront en appui contre les fourches du chariot élévateur.  In this regard, by convention, the term longitudinal edges 7, the edges which will be substantially in the same direction as that of the fork of the carriage from lifting the pallet 1. The transverse edges 8 will correspond to the edges which will bear against the forks of the forklift.

Les moyens de fixation 6 autorisant le positionnement des plots au voisinage des bords 7, permettent d'obtenir des longueurs L entre les plots importante facilitant le positionnement des fourches du chariot élévateur.  The fastening means 6 allowing the positioning of the studs in the vicinity of the edges 7, allow to obtain lengths L between the large studs facilitating the positioning of the forks of the forklift.

Par ailleurs, les moyens de fixation 6 permettent en outre de réduire considérablement les zones de la base 2 se situant au-delà de la zone formée par les plots de support 3.  Furthermore, the fastening means 6 also make it possible to considerably reduce the areas of the base 2 lying beyond the zone formed by the support pads 3.

A ce sujet, on voit qu'à la figure 2, les plots 3 sont disposés au niveau des angles de la base 2. Dans cette configuration, aucune zone ou partie de la base 2 n'est située en dehors de la zone formée par les plots 3.  In this regard, we see that in Figure 2, the pads 3 are arranged at the corners of the base 2. In this configuration, no area or part of the base 2 is located outside the area formed by the studs 3.

Toutefois, selon d'autres modes de réalisation possibles, on pourra envisager que les plots 3 soient décalés par rapport aux bords transversaux 8 de la palette 1.  However, according to other possible embodiments, it may be envisaged that the pads 3 are offset with respect to the transverse edges 8 of the pallet 1.

Dans l'exemple de réalisation des figures 1 et 2, les moyens de fixation latérale 6 sont réalisés par la bande 4 venant en appui sur le chant 9 du bord longitudinal 7 de la base 2 et dont les extrémités 11 comportent des moyens de liaison 10 à la partie supérieure de la base 2.  In the embodiment of Figures 1 and 2, the lateral fixing means 6 are formed by the strip 4 bearing on the edge 9 of the longitudinal edge 7 of the base 2 and whose ends 11 comprise connecting means 10 at the top of the base 2.

Toutefois, selon un autre mode de réalisation avantageux de l'invention, les moyens de fixation 6 seront réalisés par la bande 4 venant cette fois traverser une fente ménagée au voisinage de chaque bord 7 et dont les extrémités 11 comportent des moyens de liaison 10 à la partie supérieure de la base 2.  However, according to another advantageous embodiment of the invention, the fastening means 6 will be made by the strip 4 this time through a slot formed in the vicinity of each edge 7 and whose ends 11 comprise connecting means 10 to the upper part of the base 2.

2890045 5 De préférence, la liaison entre l'extrémité 11 des bandes 4 s'effectuera au niveau des fentes 12 correspondant aux fentes intérieures des plots 3 disposés le long des bords longitudinaux 7.  2890045 5 Preferably, the connection between the end 11 of the strips 4 will occur at the slots 12 corresponding to the inner slots of the pads 3 arranged along the longitudinal edges 7.

Les moyens de liaison 10 seront réalisés par une coopération entre l'extrémité de la bande 4 et la fente 12 ménagée dans la partie supérieure de la base 2, l'extrémité 11 de la bande 4 étant munie de pattes permettant un blocage en translation de cette bande.  The connecting means 10 will be made by a cooperation between the end of the band 4 and the slot 12 formed in the upper part of the base 2, the end 11 of the band 4 being provided with tabs allowing translation locking in translation. this band.

D'autres moyens de liaison 10 auraient également pu être envisagés, soit en remplacement, soit en addition avec une extrémité de bande 4 munie de pattes.  Other connection means 10 could also have been envisaged, either as a replacement or in addition with a band end 4 provided with tabs.

On pourra notamment envisager que les moyens de liaison 10 comportent une soudure réalisée à proximité de l'extrémité 11 de la bande 4, liant la bande 4 à la face supérieure de la base 2. Cette soudure pourra être une soudure point par point ou une soudure en ligne.  It may be envisaged that the connection means 10 comprise a weld made near the end 11 of the strip 4, linking the strip 4 to the upper face of the base 2. This weld may be a point-to-point weld or a online welding.

Les plots 3 de support pourront être réalisés à partir de matériaux légers et résistants et notamment des blocs de polystyrène.  The support pads 3 may be made from light and resistant materials and in particular polystyrene blocks.

Toutefois, pour résister à des charges élevées, on pourra prévoir que le plot de support soit un profilé ouvert comportant des éléments raidisseurs 13 tels que représentés aux figures 1 et 2.  However, to withstand high loads, it can be provided that the support pad is an open profile having stiffening elements 13 as shown in Figures 1 and 2.

Ces plots 3 réalisés en profilé ouvert sont particulièrement intéressants puisqu'ils permettent le passage d'élingues à l'intérieur des plots 3 permettant la mise en suspension de la palette 1.  These studs 3 made in open profile are particularly interesting since they allow the passage of slings inside the studs 3 allowing the suspension of the pallet 1.

Cette mise en suspension facilitera les opérations de transbordement de la palette 1 et notamment du sol vers un véhicule ou un navire et inversement.  This suspension will facilitate the transhipment operations of the pallet 1 and in particular the ground to a vehicle or a ship and vice versa.

Dans le cas de l'utilisation d'un plot 3 réalisé à partir d'un profilé ouvert, on utilisera de manière avantageuse pour la production de ce plot un matériau plastique.  In the case of the use of a stud 3 made from an open profile, it will advantageously be used for the production of this stud a plastic material.

Bien entendu, d'autres modes de réalisation à la portée de l'homme de l'art auraient pu être envisagés sans pour autant sortir du cadre de l'invention définie  Of course, other embodiments within the reach of ordinary skill in the art could have been envisaged without departing from the scope of the invention defined
