Title:
CARGO PILLAR INCLUDING A TELESCOPING DEVICE
TECHNICAL FlELD
The present invention relates to a cargo pillar including a telescoping device according to the preamble of claim1, particularly intended to be applied, for instance, between two surfaces, such as between floor and ceiling or between two walls or the like in a cargo space.
BACKGROUND
Cargo pillars are used to secure cargo on, for instance, platform bodies, in holds of ships or the like and are in that connection jammed between opposite walls or between floor and ceiling or the like, for instance, in a cargo space. They may also be used to separate cargos. Different types of cargo pillars are known. A type of cargo pillar of ten used today comprises a telescoping device håving telescoping elements displaceable in each other and a force device mounted at the same consisting of a rack and an element interacting with the rack that is connected with a control handle arranged on one telescoping element and a locking member that should lock the telescoping elements in desired position in relation to each other. By means of the handle, the locking member can be brought into a non-blocking position so that the telescoping elements can be displaced in relation to each other and the desired length can be set. By means of the handle, the rack and the tooth element can be brought into engagement to clamp and lock the rack in desired location.
A disadvantage of such cargo pillars is that there is a large risk of crushing injuries to the user. Another disadvantage is that the cargo pillar is heavy and yet another disadvantage consists of racks being subjected to wear-out, wherein the teeth of the rack are worn.
In order to remedy these drawbacks, a cargo pillar is defined in SE 510 130 wherein the force device instead consists of a gas spring. The locking member comprises a closable valve, which is interconnected with the gas spring and, in closed position, locks the gas spring in a present position, and in an open position, the spring is allowed to expand or contract.
However, also this device is impaired by a number of disadvantages. One of these disadvantages consists of the gas spring comprising a cartridge filled with air and a little oil. In repeated uses, however, gaskets in the same are subjected to wear-out, and if the gasket breaks, the pressure in the cartridge disappears and the cargo pillar becomes unusable. Thus, the cartridge has to be replaced in order for the cargo pillar to function.
Another disadvantage of using gas springs as force devices is that these are temperature dependent inasmuch as they are sensitive to cold. This is of large importance, for instance, upon transportation of food, in particular frozen food, where a temperature of below -18 °C is required. Lowered temperature means that the pressure falls, wherein the nominal pressure of, for instance, approx. 1200 N to be exerted falls considerably, particularly down to 900-1000 N. Low temperatures and temperature differences, for instance, upon co-transportations of food where a part of the cargo can be transported at a higher temperature, e.g., -4 °C and another part consists of frozen goods, which require a temperature of less than -18 °C and partition walls are used between them becomes accordingly also problematic.
Another disadvantage of the device known by SE 510 130 is that, in order for it to be mountable, for instance, between floor and ceiling, the locking device with the handle has to be placed low down so that the user should be able to tighten it by means of the handle, which be pulled downward upon clamping. This low placement of the handle makes that it easily risks becoming damaged, for instance hit by industrial trucks and so on, but is also situated on such a low height that it risks damaging the cargo, which often is stored in relatively poorly protected packages.
A further disadvantage consists of the device being heavy, which may lead to strain injuries to the staff, since numerous both lifting and clamping operations are required, possibly with a partition wall, and the weight needed to be lifted easily may reach or even exceed threshold values in force for workers, which at present are of 25 kg for men and 20 kg for women. In addition, the device is composed of a plurality of components, which leads to it becoming relatively expensive. The relatively large number of components also means an increased vulnerability and decreased manageability.
SUMMARY OP THE INVENTION
Therefore, it is an aim of the present invention to provide a cargo pillar håving the features indicated by way of introduction by which one or more of the above mentioned problems can be solved.
Particularly, it is an aim to define a cargo pillar, which is easy to use and which in addition has a low weight. Another particular aim consists of defining a cargo pillar, which is simple and inexpensive to produce, and which in addition is reliable in operation and has a long service life and accordingly is resistant to wear-out as well as robust,
Another particular aim of the invention is to define a cargo pillar, which is reliable in use and which in addition is formed in such a way that the risk of crushing injuries to staff is low. Another particular aim is to define a cargo pillar, which in mounted (clamped) state reduces the risk of it itself becoming damaged or unintentionally being opened or being brought into a position where the cargo pillar loses its function as a jammed or clamped pillar, as well as the fact that the risk of cargo being damaged by a handle and the like projecting element can be kept low.
A particular aim of the invention is to define a cargo pillar, which is flexible and which can be used within a wide area as regards distance between clamping points, i.e., the distance between wall and wall or between floor and ceiling or the like. A further particular aim of the invention is to define a cargo pillar, which is temperature-insensitive, i.e., the clamping force of which is not affected by the temperature of the spaces where it is used.
Therefore, a cargo pillar is provided as initially indicated, which in addition comprises the features defined in the characterizing part of claim 1.
Preferred embodiments are indicated by the features defined in the dependent claims.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a cargo pillar according to the invention and comprises a telescoping device håving a first telescoping element 10 and a second telescoping element20, which is displaceable in the first telescoping element 10. ln the respective extreme ends of the telescoping device, different types of contact elements 44, 45 may be arranged, which are intended for abutment against two opposite surfaces or points, for instance two opposite walls, floor and ceiling, and so on. Said contact elements 44, 45 may be formed in many different ways. For instance, they may consist of contact pads, materials håving a certain elasticity, or rubber and may have a surface håving a certain friction to guarantee a friction grip in relation to the contact surfaces. The second telescoping element20has a smaller cross-section than the first hollow telescoping element 10, which in the example shown has a quadratic cross-sectional shape. It should, of course, be clear that the telescoping elements also may have other cross-sectional shapes, such as rectangular, circular, triangular, and so on, on the assumption that they have the same cross-sectional shape and the first telescoping element is greater so that the second telescoping element can be displaced in the first telescoping element.
In the example shown, the second telescoping element 20 is, on one of the outsides thereof, provided with a number of holes25 to allow setting of a suitable basic length (in released, non-clamped position) of the telescoping device, which is intended to be possible to be clamped between two surfaces or the like. This setting is provided by a holder element 21, which is displaceably arranged on the second holder element20, being provided with a pin (not shown in Fig. 1) , which is spring-loaded and connected with a grip member 37 by which the pin, against the action of the spring, can be pulled out so that the second telescoping element 20 and the second holder element 21 become displaceable in relation to each other, and at desired length, the grip element 37 can be released, which brings the pin to be pushed into desired hole 25 and the second telescoping element 20 and the second holder element 21 to become fixed in relation to each other.
The cargo pillar comprises a force transmission device 30, 40 håving a locking function so that the cargo pillar can be clamped and locked in desired position between, for instance, two opposite walls or floor and ceiling.
The force transmission device may be said to consist of two included devices 30, 40, the first one 30 of which comprises a first holder element 11, which surrounds and is connected with the outer end of the first telescoping element, which is positioned opposite the outer free end 201 of the first telescoping element 10 and which is intended to be clamped against a wall, a floor, or the like. The first holder element 11 may be formed integrally with the first telescoping element10, or be fixedly connected with the same, or alternatively be fixedly mountable to the same (not shown) , for instance by means of screws, nuts or, the like.
The force transmission device 3 0 also comprises said second holder element 21, which preferably (but not necessarily) is settably mountable on the second telescoping element 20, and a control member 15 mounted at a flange device 17 comprising, in the example shown, two parallel flange elements 17', 17' fixedly connected with or integral with the first holder element 11and projecting in a first direction from an outer side of the same. The control member 15 is, in that connection, rotatably mounted on a first shaft 18, which extends between the flange elements 17', 17' perpendicular to the longitudinal extension of the first telescoping element 10 (i.e., of the cargo pillar), in a plane at a certain distance from the outer surface of the first telescoping element on the side where the flange elements are arranged. The control member 15 is in turn, e.g., provided with parallel flange elements 16', 16' between which, and rotatably mounted on a second shaft 19 parallel to said first shaft18, a connection device 14 is arranged, which here consists of a link lever. Said second shaft 19 is positioned at a distance from the outer end of the control member at which the same is connected by the first shaft 18. The link lever 14 is, in an opposite extreme end, connected with a flange device 27 of the second holder element 21, which projects in the same direction as the flange devices 17, 16, so that the link lever 14 in this end is rotatably mounted on a third shaft 28. Thus, the first and second holder elements 11, 21 are connected via three bearing shafts 18, 19, 28.
The force transmission device also comprises a force device consisting of a clamping spring device 40 arranged adjacent to the free end of the first telescoping element 10 where the contact element 44 is arranged. This clamping spring device 40 comprises a spring {not shown in this figure) arranged inside a spring housing 42, which in turn is part ly received in the outer free end portion of the first telescoping element 10 so that the same forms the outer free end 201 of the telescoping device on one side. Thus, the spring housing 42 projects outside the free end of the first telescoping element 10 and the compression spring is at its one (outer) end attached by a connection element 43, which, for instance, may consist of a screw and nut, to the outer free end of the spring housing 42 and in its second, inner, end by means of a connection element likewise consisting of, for instance, a screw and nut 46 attached to the first telescoping element 10. Preferably, the spring housing 42 and the spring, respectively, are connected with the contact element 44 via a cylindrical pin 54. This connection may be provided in various ways.
In Figure 1, the telescoping device is shown in non-clamped position and håving a suitable length selected by choice of suitable hole 25 in which a pin, not shown, is inserted by means of the grip member 37 and which is kept in place by spring action. For the clamping, the control member 15 is rotated on the first shaft 18, which results in the first 10 and second 20 telescoping elements being brought apart when the contact elements 44, 45 are in contact with opposite surfaces or points. Then the spring of the clamping spring device 4 0 will be compressed and when the control member 15 is brought upward in Fig. 1, and upon rotation on the first shaft 18 in relation to the first holder element, also a rotary motion is provided between the control member 15 and the link lever 14 on the second shaft 19. The link lever 14 will in that connection in turn, at its opposite end, be rotated on the third shaft28so that the opposite end of the same (of the link lever 14) , which is connected with the control member 15 via the shaft 19, is pushed upward (in the same figure) and inward toward the telescoping element 10. In that connection, the connection arm or link lever 14 will actuate the second holder element 21, which is fixedly connected via the pin (not shown) with the second telescoping element 20, so that the same is pulled outward from the first telescoping element 10 at the same time as the spring of the clamping spring device is increasingly tensioned. After the shaft 19 has reached a certain position, here called the position of equilibrium, locking of the cargo pillar in clamped, or jammed position, will occur, which will be described in more detail below. After this position, it remains locked in the same state and the control member may possibly be rotated further in the same direction.
In Figures 2-4, the cargo pillar according to Figure 1 is shown as seen from the side in three different states.
In Figure 2, the cargo pillar is positioned in released, i.e., non-clamped or non-jammed position. The length is selected by the grip member 37 being in non-loaded position and the pin connected with the same (not shown) accordingly being inserted in the desired hole 25 in the second telescoping element 20. The control member 15, which here consists of a handle, is folded-out and in the example shown forms an angle of slightly more than 90° in relation to the second telescoping element 20 and the second telescoping element 20 being maximally inserted in the first telescoping element 10 as is allowed by the length setting, and the design of the length of the link lever 14, and how the flange arm is arranged, and so on. The rest of the included elements shown in the figure have already been described, reference being made to Figure 1.
In the state illustrated in Figure 3, the cargo pillar is applied between two opposite surfaces (not shown) against which the contact elements 44, 45 abut and the handle 15 has been rotated on the first shaft 18 toward the second telescoping element 20 so that the angle between the handle 15 and the length extension of the second telescoping element is decreased in relation to the angle in released position. In the figure, it is seen that, by the link lever 14 being tied to the second holder element 21, which is fixedly connected with the second telescoping element 20, which in turn is movably journalled in the first telescoping element 10, the same will be pulled out from the first telescoping element 10 and the link lever 14 will become more parallel to the length extension of the telescoping device. In that connection, the second shaft 19, which connects the flange of the handle 15 with one outer end of the link lever 14, is moved inward toward the central axis y of the telescoping element and the distance therebetween approaches the perpendicular distance from the first shaft 18 on which the handle15 is rotated in relation to the flange of the first holder element 11. When the position of the second translatable, rotation shaft 19 passes a fictitious connection line x between the first shaft 18 and the third shaft 28, so that the three shafts are located on a straight fictitious connection line, locking will occur and the cargo pillar is then fixedly clamped and locked between two opposite walls or between floor and ceiling, or the like, and the handle 15 is then, for instance, essentially parallel to the longitudinal extension of the telescoping device and the shaft 19 is positioned inside the fictitious connection line between the first and the third shaft 18, 28 (Fig. 4). The second telescoping element 20 is then - given the force of the clamping spring, the length of the link lever 14 in relation to the connection points, and the rotation shafts 18, 19, 28 - maximally extended. Figure 5 shows once again the cargo pillar according to Figure 1 but now in a section view from the side. The referencedesignations are the same as previously and every detail will therefore not be described. However, it is shown how the second telescoping element 20 extends inside the first telescoping element 10, and how the spring 41, which is included in the clamping spring device and which is arranged in the spring housing 42, is anchored by the fastening devices43,46 at the spring housing 42 and the first telescoping element. In this embodiment example, the cargo pillar is in jammed or clamped position like Figure 4. Figure 6 is a side view of the cargo pillar according to, for instance, Figure 1, as seen from the side but where the part that comprises the clamping spring device 40 is shown as a section through the lower part of the first telescoping element, the spring housing 42, so that the spring 41 more clearly could be illustrated, as well as its fastening via, for instance, nut and bolt 4 6 to, but at a distance from, the free end of the first telescoping element 10 and by means of another screw/nut device 43 to the spring housing 42. In the state illustrated in Figure 6, the cargo pillar is in released, i.e., not clamped, position.
Figure 7 is a schematic view from the side along the arrows D, D of the cargo pillar in Figure 6, only intended to illustrate how, in one embodiment, the handle extends essentially parallel to the first telescoping element 10 and the connection of the link lever with the flange arm 27 of the second holder element 21. The grip member 37 abuts freely against a housing 38in which a spring-loaded pin (not shown in this figure) is positioned for the introduction into a selectable hole in the second telescoping element 20. In Figure 7, however, the portion that shows the tension spring device is not a section but is shown as a side view.
Figure 8 is a schematic illustration of the combined force transmission device and the locking device 30. A clamping spring device 40 is included in the force transmission device but is not shown here since the purpose of this figure is to show how locking or blocking in clamping position is provided.
The first holder element 11 is fixedly mounted and forms or is included in the upper part of the first telescoping element 10and the second holder element 21 is here assumed to be connected with the second telescoping element 20 in desired location. At the flange device 17, the handle 15 is consisting of two parallel flange elements 17' articulately journalled on the first shaft 18 at the first holder element 11, and has in addition a flange device 16 on the same side of the handle 15 consisting of two parallel flange elements 16', 16' (only one of which shown in this side view) between which the link lever 14 is articulately journalled to be rotatable on a second shaft 19. At a second, opposite, end, the link lever 14 is articulately journalled on a shaft through a flange 27 of the second holder element 21 which projects in the same direction as the flange device 17 of the first holder element, and on which shaft 28 the link lever 14 can be rotated.
In Figure 8, the cargo pillar is assumed to be prestressed between, for instance, two walls or between floor and ceiling or at least arranged so that it is in contact with two opposite walls or floor and ceiling, and the handle is actuated to be rotated in the direction indicated by the arrow A toward the telescoping element 20. As has been previously described, reference being made to Figures 2-4, this rotation of the handle on the first shaft 18 causes the second shaft 19 to be displaced toward the centre axis y of the telescoping device, and the link lever 14 becomes increasingly parallel to the length extension of the telescoping device. In the example shown, the positioning of the handle 15 is shown and the translatable, movable second shaft19 is here positioned in a position precisely before locking or blocking. Blocking, locking arises when the second shaft 19, by the actuation of the handle 15 in the direction of the arrow A, passes the fictitious connection line between the fixed rotation shafts 18, 28, which is illustrated by the dashed line x in the figure. It has also been called that a position of eguilibrium is reached. As soon as the translatable shaft 19 has passed said line x, the cargo pillar is accordingly jammed and locked and can only be opened by overcoming a force i f the handle actively is rotated outward, in the opposite direction, until the second rotation shaft 19 passes the fictitious connection line x between the shafts 18 and 28. Figure 9 is an enlarged view of the clamping spring device 40, which shows a helical spring 41 arranged in the spring housing42which, with the spring, is mounted at a outer free end of the first telescoping element 10 by means of, for instance, a screw and nut device 46 and with the helical spring 41, via a second screw and nut device 43, being attached to the spring housing42, and a cylinder pin 54 or the like with which the contact element 44 is connected or formed integrally. Upon actuation for clamping, when the contact elements 44, 45 are in contact with two opposite surfaces and when the telescoping elements 10, 20 cannot be brought further apart without being subjected to the force of the clamping spring, the spring is compressed.Figure 10 schematically shows the functioning of the setting of the total length of the first and second telescoping elements by means of the grip member 37 arranged on or formed integral ly with the second holder element 21, which is arranged to surround the second telescoping element 20. The grip element 37 is connected with a compression spring 38 mounted on a pin 36 and is positioned inside a setting spring housing 39 so that, when the grip member 37 is pulled outward in the direction from the telescoping element 20, the spring 38 is compressed and the pin 36 can be pulled out from a hole 25. However, when the grip member 37 is released, the pin 36 is pressed by the spring 38 into the desired hole, the second holder element 21 remaining fixedly connected with the second telescoping element20.
It should be clear that the invention is not limited to the shown embodiment examples, but may be varied in a variety of ways within the scope of the attached claims.
In an advantageous embodiment, at least the first and second telescoping elements, preferably also the first and second holder elements, consist of aluminium profiles. Preferably, the clamping spring device consists of a helical spring, but in an alternative embodiment, the clamping spring device consists of a gas spring. As previously has been mentioned, the telescoping elements may have different shapes as well as also the control member. For instance, the handle, grip member and contact elements may be formed in many different ways. In one example, the contact elements (the first and/or second> are detachably arranged at the second telescoping element and the first telescoping element, respectively, or more particularly the spring housing 42. It then becomes possible to either replace either or both contact elements depending on application. In one embodiment, the second telescoping element may be turnable and be provided with holes for setting the length in various ways so that, in one position, it is inserted longer and has certain setting possiblities so that a shorter telescoping device is obtained, while if the detachable telescoping element is turned and inserted from the other side, a longer cargo pillar is obtained. In this way, for instance, a device may particularly be obtained that is adjustable between a maximum length of, for instance, between 2,10 m and 3,30 m according to the different setting alternatives. It should, of course, be clear that these numerical indications only are given for exemplifying purposes.
If, upon mounting between ceiling and floor, the second telescoping element is facing upward and the first telescoping element is brought to abutment against the floor, the handle will need to be pressed upward for clamping, which allows easy application of a great force, which is an advantage. This also allows that the handle can be arranged higher up than in known devices and accordingly the device becomes less sensible to impact or damage, which, for instance, may arise by it being hit by industrial trucks used upon loading and unloading and so on, and is also running a smaller risk of injuring loading staff and damaging cargo.
It is also an advantage that the device consists of few components, which makes it both simple and inexpensive to produce and easy to use, as well as that parts easily can be exchanged or adapted depending on particular desires. By the fact that the clamping spring device consists of a helical spring, the same can easily be attached and does not have to be welded on as was necessary with previously used gas springs, which allows the use of aluminium profiles. In certain cases, it is, according to the invention, also possible to use aluminium profiles in spite of a gas spring being utilized when this is used as a clamping spring. The use of aluminium profiles makes that the weight is considerably reduced, which is a major advantage cons ider ing that many lifts have to be made by staff for the clamping of cargo, etc. It is also possible to easily exchange, for instance, link lever and handle so that these can be adapted to prevailing circumstances and desires; the handle may be exchanged for more ergonomic handles, and the length of the link lever may be varied. Also in other respects, the invention may be freely varied within the scope of the attached claims. The utilization of a gas spring is also allowed as has been indicated above by the present invention, wherein not until then the problems present in existing gas springs are solved.
