Abstract

The invention relates to a transport container which is made of plastic and has side walls which rise up from a bottom part and are reinforced on their outwardly facing surface by vertical and/or horizontal ribs which protrude from the walls and are characterized in that plates made of plastic filled with stiffness-increasing additives are applied to the outer side of at least two opposing side walls.

Description

Transportbehälter transport container

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Transportbehälter aus Kunststoff mit von einem Bodenteil aufsteigenden Seitenwänden, die auf ihrer nach außen weisenden Oberfläche durch senkrechte und/oder waagerechte, von den Wänden abstehende Rippen verstärkt sind. Es kann sich hierbei um Klein- aber auch um Großladungsträger handeln, bei denen die Seitenwände auch klappbar ausgebildet sein können.The invention relates to a transport container made of plastic with rising from a bottom part side walls, which are reinforced on its outwardly facing surface by vertical and / or horizontal, projecting from the walls ribs. These may be small or large load carriers in which the side walls may also be foldable.

Derartige Ladungsträger werden im beladenen Zustand aufeinander gestellt, so dass auf die Seitenwände recht große Kräfte einwirken. ' Such charge carriers are placed on each other in the loaded state, so that act on the side walls quite large forces. '

Das Gewicht und die mechanische Belastbarkeit spielen insbesondere bei Kleinladungsträgern aus Kunststoff eine immer größere Rolle.The weight and the mechanical strength play an increasingly important role, especially in small load carriers made of plastic.

Die Forderung nach immer höheren Auflasten kann erfüllt werden, indem beispielsweise steifere und damit sprödere Materialien eingesetzt werden, zusätzliche Rippen vorwiegend in den Eckbereichen eingebracht werden oder Stahlverstärkungen angeschraubt oder angenietet werden. Fertigt man den Ladungsträger aus einem steifen Material, kann man zwar die Auflast steigern, andererseits brechen die Produkte infolge der Sprödigkeit des Materials wesentlich schneller.The demand for ever higher loads can be met by, for example, using stiffer and thus more brittle materials, introducing additional ribs predominantly in the corner regions, or screwing or riveting steel reinforcements. If you make the carrier of a stiff material, although you can increase the ballast, on the other hand, the products break much faster due to the brittleness of the material.

Zusätzliche Rippen können zwar die Auflast um 20 bis 30% erhöhen, sind aber wesentlich schlechter zu reinigen und erhöhen das Gewicht.Although additional ribs can increase the ballast load by 20 to 30%, they are much worse to clean and increase the weight.

Stahlverstärkungen sind extrem teuer und die Kombination Kunststoff und Stahl ist schwer zu recyceln.Steel reinforcements are extremely expensive and the combination of plastic and steel is difficult to recycle.

Daher liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Transportbehälter der eingangs genannten Art so auszugestalten, dass bei bleibender Elastizität des Transportbehälters die Auflast um mindestens 100% steigen kann, ohne dass das Recycling mit Mehraufwand verbunden ist und das Gewicht des Transportbehälters steigt.The invention is therefore based on the object, a transport container of the type mentioned in such a way that at constant elasticity of the transport container load can rise by at least 100%, without recycling is associated with overhead and the weight of the transport container increases.

Die Erfindung löst diese Aufgabe gemäß dem kennzeichnenden Teil des Patentanspruchs 1 dadurch, dass auf die Außenseite von zumindest zwei sich gegenüberliegenden Seitenwänden Platten aus mit die Stabilität erhöhenden Additiven gefülltem Kunststoff aufgebracht sind.The invention solves this problem according to the characterizing part of patent claim 1, characterized in that on the outside of at least two opposite side walls plates of stability-enhancing additives filled plastic are applied.

Auf einen normal hergestellten Kunststoffbehälter aus einem elastischen Kunststoffmaterial werden stabile, steife Platten aufgebracht.On a normally made plastic container made of a resilient plastic material stable, rigid plates are applied.

Die Kombination beider Materialien erfüllt dieThe combination of both materials fulfills the

Teilaufgabenstellung, dass die Auflast erhöht werden kann ohne dass die Elastizität des Transportbehälters verschlechtert wird. Als weiterer Vorteil des erfindungsgemäß ausgestalteten Transportbehälters ist die Reinigungsfreundlichkeit durch die glatte Außenfläche zu nennen.Partial task that the ballast can be increased without the elasticity of the transport container is deteriorated. Another advantage of the transport container designed according to the invention is the ease of cleaning due to the smooth outer surface.

Darüber hinaus können Transportbehälter und Platte gemeinsam recycelt werden.In addition, transport container and plate can be recycled together.

Ein Hauptvorteil ist aber darin zu sehen, dass der Basisbehälter aus einem elastischeren Material hergestellt werden kann, wobei zudem Material eingespart werden kann, da die eigentliche Stabilität und Belastbarkeit des Behälters durch die aufgebrachten Platten erzeugt wird.A major advantage, however, is the fact that the base container can be made of a more elastic material, which also material can be saved, since the actual stability and resilience of the container is generated by the applied plates.

Als Additive können Glasfasern, Hanffaser, Stahlfasern, Talkum, Kreide und ähnliche Stabilitätserhöhende Materialien vorgesehen sein. Daneben können die Platten aber auch aus an sich steiferem Material bestehen, wie zum Beispiel Polyamid, POM etc..As additives, glass fibers, hemp fiber, steel fibers, talc, chalk and similar stability-increasing materials may be provided. In addition, however, the plates can also consist of stiffer material, such as polyamide, POM, etc.

Gemäß Anspruch 2 ist vorgesehen, dass die mit den Additiven gefüllten Kunststoffplatten auf die Verstärkungsrippen auf der Oberfläche der Seitenwände aufgeschweißt werden.According to claim 2 it is provided that the filled with the additives plastic plates are welded to the reinforcing ribs on the surface of the side walls.

Alternativ ist gemäß Anspruch 3 vorgesehen, dass die mit den Additiven gefüllten Kunststoffplatten auf die Verstärkungsrippen aufgeschraubt oder genietet werden.Alternatively, it is provided according to claim 3 that the filled with the additives plastic plates are screwed or riveted to the reinforcing ribs.

In einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform ist gemäß Anspruch 4 vorgesehen, dass die mit den Additiven gefüllten Kunststoffplatten mit ihrer unteren Kante auf einer in Bodenhöhe des Behälters umlaufenden Rippe aufstehen und die obere Kante der jeweiligen Kunststoffplatte an die Unterseite eines die Oberkante des Behälters umgebende, nach außen vorkragende Rippe anstößt. Die mit den Additiven gefüllte Kunststoffplatte ist also unten und oben abgestützt und kann somit die in die Seitenwände von oben senkrecht eingeleiteten Kräfte gut aufnehmen.In an advantageous embodiment, it is provided according to claim 4 that the filled with the additives plastic plates with its lower edge on a revolving at ground level of the container rib and the upper edge of the respective plastic plate to the underside of the upper edge of the container, projecting outwardly projecting Rib abuts. The plastic plate filled with the additives is thus supported at the bottom and at the top and thus can absorb well the forces introduced perpendicularly into the side walls from above.

Je nach Ausführungsform und Einsatzzweck können die mit den Additiven gefüllten Kunststoffplatten lediglich in den Eckbereichen der Seitenwände angeordnet sein. D.h., dass die verstärkten Platten streifenförmig ausgebildet sind und in dem Bereich, in dem zwei Seitenwände aneinander stoßen, eingesetzt werden.Depending on the embodiment and intended use, the plastic plates filled with the additives may be arranged only in the corner regions of the side walls. That is, the reinforced plates are striped and inserted in the area where two side walls abut each other.

Alternativ ist gemäß Anspruch 6 vorgesehen, dass die mit den Additiven gefüllten Kunststoffplatten mittig auf den Seitenwänden angeordnet sind.Alternatively, it is provided according to claim 6 that the filled with the additives plastic plates are arranged centrally on the side walls.

Somit decken die Platten praktisch die gesamte Oberfläche einer Seitenwand des Basistransportbehälters ab.Thus, the plates cover virtually the entire surface of a side wall of the base transport container.

Im Extremfall kann natürlich auch vorgesehen sein, dass sowohl mittig auf den Seitenwänden als auch in den Eckbereichen derartige Platten aus verstärktem Kunststoff angeordnet sind.In the extreme case, of course, it can also be provided that such plates of reinforced plastic are arranged both centrally on the side walls and in the corner areas.

Um die Stabilität einer derartigen Konstruktion noch zu steigern, sieht Anspruch 7 vor, dass zwischen Seitenoberfläche und der mit den Additiven gefüllten Kunststoffplatte eine Schicht aus gepresster Pappe eingeschlossen ist.To further increase the stability of such a construction, claim 7 provides that a layer of pressed cardboard is enclosed between the side surface and the plastic plate filled with the additives.

Es kann jedoch auch eine Verstärkung aus Metallteilen vorgesehen sein, die in den Zwischenraum eingebracht sind.However, it can also be provided a reinforcement of metal parts, which are introduced into the space.

Alternativ kann gemäß Anspruch 8 vorgesehen sein, dass zwischen Seitenwandoberfläche und der mit den Additiven gefüllten Kunststoffplatte eine Schicht aus Holz eingeschlossen ist, wobei gemäß Anspruch 9 vorgesehen ist, dass die Maserung des Holzes in Richtung vom Boden zum Rand des Behälters verläuft.Alternatively, it can be provided according to claim 8 that a layer of wood is enclosed between the side wall surface and the plastic plate filled with the additives, wherein according to claim 9 it is provided that the grain of the wood extends in the direction from the bottom to the edge of the container.

Somit können die senkrecht in die Seitenwände eingeleiteten Kräfte noch effektiver aufgenommen werden.Thus, the perpendicular introduced into the side walls forces can be absorbed more effectively.

Eine derartige Ausrichtung können auch die Additive, z. B. die Glasfasern in den Kunststoffplatten haben, so dass hierdurch eine weitere Auflaststeigerung ermöglicht wird.Such an orientation can also the additives, for. B. have the glass fibers in the plastic plates, so that in this way a further increase in load is made possible.

Die Erfindung wird im folgenden anhand von Zeichnungen dargestellt und erläutert.The invention is illustrated and explained below with reference to drawings.

Fig. 5 Schnitt durch eine Seitenwand mit zusätzlicher VerstärkungFig. 5 section through a side wall with additional reinforcement

In den Figuren 1 bis 4 ist ein Transportbehälter (Kleinladungsträger oder Großladungsträger) in perspektivischer Darstellung dargestellt und allgemein mit dem Bezugszeichen 1 versehen. Er besteht aus einem Bodenteil 2 und senkrecht von diesem Bodenteil 2 aufsteigenden Seitenwänden 3, 4, 5 und 6.In FIGS. 1 to 4, a transport container (small load carrier or large load carrier) is shown in a perspective view and generally designated by the reference numeral 1. It consists of a bottom part 2 and vertically from this bottom part 2 rising side walls 3, 4, 5 and 6.

Im Bodenbereich ist umlaufend eine horizontal nach außen abstehende Rippe 7 vorgesehen. Entsprechend ist am oberen Rand des Behälters 1 eine umlaufende horizontal nach außen stehende Rippe 8 vorgesehen.In the bottom area, a rib 7 protruding horizontally outwards is provided circumferentially. Accordingly, a circumferential horizontally outward rib 8 is provided at the upper edge of the container 1.

Im Bereich zwischen diesen Rippen 7 und 8 sind auf der Oberseite der Seitenwände 3 bis 6 horizontal umlaufende und vertikal angeordnete Verstärkungsrippen 9 und 10 vorgesehen, die jedoch nicht so weit nach außen vorstehen wie die Rippen 7 und 8.In the area between these ribs 7 and 8 are provided on the upper side of the side walls 3 to 6 horizontally encircling and vertically arranged reinforcing ribs 9 and 10, which, however, do not project as far outward as the ribs 7 and 8.

Zur Verstärkung des in Figur 1 dargestellten Transportbehälters 1 ist -wie in Figur 2 dargestellt- auf die Seitenwand 3 und (nicht dargestellt auf die Seitenwand4) eine Platte 11 aus glasfaserverstärktem Kunststoff aufgebracht.To reinforce the transport container 1 shown in FIG. 1, as shown in FIG. 2, a plate 11 of glass fiber reinforced plastic is applied to the side wall 3 and (not shown on the side wall 4).

Diese glasfaserverstärkte Platte 11 stützt sich zum einen auf der unteren Rippe 7 ab und stößt andererseits mit ihrer Oberkante an die Unterseite der Rippe 8 an.This glass fiber reinforced plate 11 is supported on the one hand on the lower rib 7 and abuts the other hand with its upper edge to the underside of the rib 8.

Die glasfaserverstärkte Platte 11 deckt hierbei fast die gesamte Seitenwand 3, 4 ab. Sie ist beispielsweise auf die horizontalen bzw. vertikalen Rippen 9 und 10 aufgeschweißt. Sie kann aber auch aufgeschraubt oder aufgenietet sein.The glass fiber reinforced plate 11 covers almost the entire side wall 3, 4 here. It is for example welded onto the horizontal or vertical ribs 9 and 10. But it can also be screwed or riveted.

In der Figur 3 ist ein Transportbehälter 1 dargestellt, der lediglich in den Eckbereichen 12 und 13 durch glasfaserverstärkte Platten 11 verstärkt, wobei die Platten 11 hier streifenförmig ausgebildet sind. Schließlich ist in Figur 4 eine Ausführungsform dargestellt, bei der diese streifenförmigen Platten 11 in allen Eckbereichen vorgesehen sind.3 shows a transport container 1 is shown, which only in the corner regions 12 and 13 reinforced by glass fiber reinforced plates 11, wherein the plates 11 are formed here strip-shaped. Finally, an embodiment is shown in Figure 4, in which these strip-shaped plates 11 are provided in all corners.

In der Figur 5 ist im Querschnitt eine mit einer glasfaserverstärkten Kunststoffplatte 11 verstärkte Seitenwand 3 dargestellt, wobei in dem Zwischenraum zwischen Seitenwandoberflache und glasfaserverstärkter Platte 11 ein Füllmaterial (14) vorgesehen ist.FIG. 5 shows in cross-section a side wall 3 reinforced with a glass-fiber-reinforced plastic plate 11, wherein a filling material (14) is provided in the intermediate space between side wall surface and glass-fiber reinforced plate 11.

Dieses Füllmaterial kann beispielsweise gepresste Pappe sein aber auch Holz, wobei vorteilhafterweise das Holz in Maserrichtung vom Boden zum oberen Rand des Behälters 1 verläuft. Diese Füllung steigert die Auflastfähigkeit des Behälters weiter, stört jedoch den Recyclingprozess nicht, da die Pappe oder das Holz durch eine Windsichtung vom Kunststoff getrennt werden kann. This filling material may be, for example, pressed cardboard but also wood, wherein advantageously the wood runs in the direction of the grain from the bottom to the upper edge of the container 1. This filling further increases the load capacity of the container, but does not interfere with the recycling process, since the cardboard or the wood can be separated from the plastic by an air classification.
