Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for handling bulk containers according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a device is from WO 85/99347 A1 known.
  • bulk goods such as ore, coal or wood pellets
  • which are transported in containers by rail to ports in order to be transported on bulk freighters are initially unloaded directly onto the quay or, especially in the case of moisture-sensitive bulk goods, in halls.
  • the bulk goods are brought into the cargo hold of the freighter in portions either by means of a conveyor belt or by means of double-shell grippers.
  • Most bulk goods are therefore stored outdoors or in halls for a period of time, which can result in a loss of quality and being exposed to contamination.
  • the subsequent loading of the bulk carrier is time-consuming and inconvenient.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of providing a device by means of which bulk containers can be unloaded and reloaded easily and conveniently and, if necessary, also emptied; in particular, bulk goods should be able to be emptied directly from the container into the hold of a bulk carrier without intermediate storage .
  • the upper steel frame is welded to a further, likewise rectangular steel frame, which is arranged perpendicular to the upper steel frame (3) and on which a rotating device for Rotating a support device is arranged, which has two mutually parallel fork prongs which can be threaded into the fork tunnel of the container.
  • the invention therefore enables the intended transfer of a bulk goods container to the unloading point of the bulk goods, in particular the unloading of bulk goods containers from a vehicle, for example a rail vehicle, and the emptying of the bulk goods into the hold of the bulk goods carrier.
  • the intermediate storage of the bulk material and the risk of contamination of the same can therefore be dispensed with.
  • a particular advantage of the invention lies in the short loading time of the bulk cargo carrier, cumbersome handling of the bulk cargo by reloading it onto conveyor belts or handling double-shell grippers is eliminated.
  • the bulk material can also be emptied onto the quay or into a hall in a quick and convenient way if intermediate storage is required.
  • An emptying of the received container by turning is made possible in that a turning device is arranged on the further steel frame for turning a support device, which has two fork prongs which run parallel to one another and which can be threaded into the container's fork tunnel.
  • the steel frame construction should on the one hand be stable and torsion-resistant, on the other hand it should have a relatively moderate or low weight.
  • the steel frame construction therefore has a rectangular, upper steel frame which is provided with corner fittings on which rotary latches arranged on the load pick-up can be locked.
  • the steel frame construction according to the invention has a further rectangular steel frame which is arranged perpendicular to the upper steel frame and whose one cross member simultaneously forms an additional cross member in the upper steel frame.
  • Torsional rigidity and stability are also supported by the fact that the two steel frames are connected to one another by means of inclined support beams.
  • the rotating device is expediently arranged on a holder which runs on the lower cross member and on one in the central area of the further steel frame additional cross member is attached. This measure contributes to a particularly compact construction of the device according to the invention.
  • Container conveying devices that can be coupled with a device according to the invention are cranes and reach stackers that can be fitted with or are equipped with load-bearing devices that are usually provided for coupling conventional, standardized containers.
  • FIGS 1a and 1b show schematically and by way of example a gantry crane 1 as it is used, for example, in a port terminal for handling ISO-standardized containers is used, the gantry crane 1 shown spanning a harbor basin.
  • the gantry crane 1 is a steel structure with supports 1a and a steel girder frame and has a crane bridge 1b on which a girder, not shown, is arranged, along which a trolley, also not shown, can be moved.
  • the trolley carries in a known manner one or more deflection pulley (s), not shown, for traction cables 1c, to which a load pick-up 2, also called “spreader", is attached, which is provided for coupling a container.
  • s deflection pulley
  • the load pick-up 2 is not the subject of the invention and can have a telescopic frame in a manner known per se, which is usually adjusted to the length of the container to be transferred.
  • a twistlock (not shown), which can be inserted and locked in corresponding openings on corner fittings on the top of a container.
  • load receptacles matched to the respective container dimensions can also be used.
  • Fig. 2a and Figure 2b show a reach stacker 21, that is to say a reach stacker, as is usually used for stacking and handling containers.
  • Such vehicles are also equipped with a load pick-up 22, a spreader, analogously to cranes.
  • the load receptacle 22 is mounted at the end of a pivotable, inclined arm 23. Twistlocks at the corners of the load pick-up 22 allow a container and the device according to the invention to be coupled.
  • Bulky goods such as ore, coal, pellets and the like are usually transported by rail in special bulk containers and on waterways in special ships, so-called bulk carriers or bulk carriers, which are intended for the transport of loose materials and bulk goods.
  • the bulk goods are transported on bulk freighters in cargo holds that can be locked from above.
  • conveying devices such as cranes or reach stackers
  • containers filled with bulk goods can be carried directly from the rail vehicle to the bulk goods carrier or to an intermediate storage facility, for example a hall, transfer it and empty it there.
  • the emptied container can be brought back to the rail vehicle or starting point with the conveyor device.
  • the device according to the invention is a steel frame construction made of steel girders or steel profiles welded together.
  • the device has an upper, rectangular steel frame 3 made up of two longitudinal beams 4 running parallel to one another and two cross members 5 running parallel to one another. Corner fittings 6, which are each provided with an opening 7, are arranged at the corners.
  • the longitudinal and transverse dimensions of the steel frame 3 are adapted to a conventional load suspension 2, 22 and therefore correspond, for example, to the dimensions of a standardized container to be fastened to the load suspension 2, 22, for example a 20 foot container.
  • the twist locks of the load receptacle 2, 22 can be inserted in the openings 7, so that the device according to the invention can be releasably attached to a load receptacle 2, 22 in a manner analogous to a container.
  • the upper steel frame 3 is welded to a further rectangular steel frame 9, which is arranged perpendicular to the upper steel frame 3.
  • the steel frame 9 has two longitudinal members 10 and two cross members 11, the one upper cross member 11 simultaneously forming a cross member between the two longitudinal members 4 of the upper steel frame 3.
  • the steel frame 9 is connected to the steel frame 3 at a distance from the one cross member 5 of the upper steel frame 3, this distance corresponding to approximately a quarter to a third of the length of the longitudinal members 4.
  • Support beams 12 run between the corners of the steel frame 3 closer to the steel frame 9 and the lower end regions of the longitudinal beams 10 of the steel frame 9. Opposite the support beams 12, a second pair of short support beams 13 support the longitudinal beams 10 relative to the longitudinal beams 4. The support beams 12, 13 ensure a stable and torsion-resistant construction of the device.
  • the two longitudinal members 10 of the steel frame 9 are connected approximately centrally by an additional cross member 14.
  • Fastening elements 15a for a bracket 15 are arranged on the lower cross member 11 and on the additional cross member 14 of the steel frame 9, on which a rotating device 8, which is not the subject of the invention, is arranged for a support device 16.
  • the support device 16 has a rotatably mounted Base part 16a and two fork prongs 17 arranged thereon and extending parallel to one another.
  • the rotating device 8 allows the supporting device 16 to be rotated by any angle.
  • Fig. 3 shows, for example, a possible rotated position of the support device 16.
  • the fork prongs 17 run at a mutual distance which corresponds to the mutual distance between two fork tunnels which are usually provided on containers in the area of the floor or below the floor, in order to transport these containers by means of an unloading vehicle which is provided with fork prongs in the manner of a forklift truck to be able to be positioned on a rail vehicle or taken from the rail vehicle.
  • a container 19 with fork tunnels 18 is for example in Fig. 5 shown.
  • the container 19 is a conventional bulk goods container with four side walls and a steel frame construction, not shown, which is either open at the top or is provided with a removable lid. In the figures, a container 19 open at the top is shown in each case.
  • FIGs 1a and 1b illustrate the use of the device according to the invention on the gantry crane 1 shown as an example, Fig. 2a and Figure 2b on a reach stacker 21.
  • Container carriers 20 with full bulk goods containers 19 have been driven under the gantry crane 1.
  • the device according to the invention has been firmly connected to the load receiver 2 of the crane 1 or the load receiver 22 of the reach stacker 21 by means of the twistlocks by means of its openings 7 located on the corner fittings 6.
  • the twist locks allow the device to be quickly connected to the load pick-up 2, 22 and also an easy release, for example if the load pick-up 2, 22 is to be used for other purposes, such as the transfer of conventional containers.
  • the load suspension 2, 22 together with the device according to the invention is brought into a position in which the fork tines 17 can be threaded into the fork tunnel 18 of the container 19 to be picked up.
