Definitions

  • the invention relates to a large load carrier according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the invention relates in particular to large load carriers with four circumferentially arranged and pivotably arranged side walls on the bottom of the large load carrier, of which at least one side wall is provided with a flap opening which can preferably be folded outwards and downwards to reveal a flap opening in the side wall.
  • Such large load carriers are large load carriers for the purposes of the application, usually with dimensions in the range of 800 ⁇ 600 mm, 1200 ⁇ 800 mm, 1200 ⁇ 1000 mm and 1200 ⁇ 1600 mm, these being standard dimensions and in individual cases
  • corresponding modifications between the height and width of the corresponding side walls are also possible.
  • the height of such large load carriers depends on the desired capacity, so that the information given above is in no way to be understood as restrictive.
  • a usual height calculated from the contact area of the large load carrier on the floor to the upper edge of the side walls is 1000 mm, this again not being restrictive.
  • the large load carriers are used to hold, in particular, piece goods and the like and are used in the non-food sector, industry, and preferably in the automotive sector.
  • these large load carriers on the one hand there is a lightweight, but nonetheless one Due to the amount of piece goods to be picked up, it has a stable structure and easy handling when opening the side walls, if the large load carriers are emptied, in order to enable simple and space-saving return transport.
  • Such large load carriers are designed as reusable containers and are made of plastic within the scope of the invention.
  • the side walls are in a vertical position, in which they limit the transport volume or the receiving volume of the large load carrier, coupled to one another by conventional locking elements, so that a stable connection of the large load carrier is ensured in the upright position of the side walls.
  • the side walls or at least one side wall are provided with a flap opening which can be folded down outwards, with the flap resting on the outer surface of the corresponding side wall in the folded down position.
  • swivel flaps are known ( DE 698 26 757 T2 ), whereby the flap is connected to the side wall via hinges.
  • translationally displaceable flaps are also known ( DE 10 2008 047 857 A1 ), in which the flap can be moved from the position closing the flap opening in the side wall downwards in front of the outside of the side wall. Both alternatives are in need of improvement in terms of handling and structure, which is what the invention is concerned with.
  • a large load carrier with the features of the preamble of claim 1 is known.
  • US 2006/260976 A1 shows another such large load carrier.
  • the object of the invention is to create a large load carrier which has a flap on at least one side wall, the handling of which is improved with a simple structure.
  • the flap is articulated to the side wall by means of coupling elements.
  • the coupling elements are on the one hand by means of side wall joints with the Side wall itself and, on the other hand, articulated to the flap by means of flap joints, so that the pivot connection between the flap and side wall takes place by interposing these coupling elements, which facilitates handling when opening and closing the flap.
  • At least one positive guide for the flap is provided in such a way that when the flap is pivoted by means of the coupling elements, it simultaneously creates a translational flap movement, advantageously in the plane of the flap itself, whereby the flap when closing the flap opening due to the forced upward movement is moved in the direction of the upper edge and thus up the side wall.
  • the forced guidance of the flap for a translatory flap movement is formed by at least one ramp which is arranged on the side wall in the region of the flap opening or the flap.
  • the flap, the coupling element or the side wall expediently has at least one guide groove which is provided for the translational flap movement and interacts with one of the two joints of the coupling element, i.e. either with the joint that the coupling member with the flap, or the joint that the Coupling member with the side wall, hingedly connects.
  • the advantage of the measure according to the invention is that, so to speak, automatically when the flap is flipped up or swiveled up in order to transfer it into the closed position in which it closes the flap opening in the side wall, a lifting movement is brought about which makes it possible for an at the Locking element formed by the flap can be engaged in a complementary locking element on the side wall in order to lock the flap in the closed position.
  • this takes place automatically when the flap is folded up, whereby the flap experiences a lifting movement in the direction of the upper edge of the side wall and thus a corresponding locking element on the side wall engages behind when it is moved into the closed position and thus the flap can be locked against the side wall.
  • the flap only needs to be lifted and can then be easily folded down again. This considerably simplifies the handling of such large load carriers when loading and unloading the goods.
  • the positive guidance is arranged on both side edges of the flap opening and the two edges of the flap. This results in a safe opening and closing of the flap, since the flap is guided, so to speak, without tilting during the closing process.
  • a first run-up ramp is provided on each of the lateral edges of the flap opening of the side wall, which cooperates with a first projection on each of the two lateral flap edges, which is preferably designed like a hook.
  • a second ramp is provided on the side edges of the flap opening or on the side edges of the flap, and a corresponding projection is provided accordingly.
  • the first and second run-up ramps work together to the extent that when the flap runs up the first run-up ramp and is located at the upper end of the ramp, when the flap is closed further into the closed position, the corresponding second projection runs up the second run-up ramp and thus, so to speak quasi a doubling of the lifting movement is made possible with a simple structure.
  • a kinematically reversed arrangement of the ramp and projection is also possible.
  • the ramps are designed so that the flaps fall down either by gravity or by a suitable spring preload as soon as the ramps are overrun. This applies both to embodiments with one constrained guidance as well as in embodiments with two constrained guidance, which here are each preferably formed by inclined ramps.
  • the projections cooperating with the ramp surfaces are expediently designed as locking elements, preferably formed by hook-like projections, the lowering of the flap after driving over the ramp results in an automatic locking of the flaps in the closed position, in that the hook-like projections in particular engage behind the ramps. It is useful here to use the ramps as locking elements, with in expedient training the ramps can also be provided with an undercut in the form of grooves for the locking engagement, if necessary.
  • springs are provided which are pretensioned when the flap is closed, whereby, depending on the orientation of the pretensioning force, the closed position can be secured or the pivoting of the flap into the open position can be facilitated by appropriate design and / or arrangement of the springs .
  • the coupling elements and the joints of the coupling elements can be made very simple, since two hinge pins are expediently provided for the articulated connection, which preferably each pass through the coupling element and on the one hand one of the hinge pins is displaced on the flap and the other hinge pin on the side wall.
  • a flush arrangement can be achieved in that the coupling elements are each received in recesses on the lower edge of the flap when the flap is in the closed position.
  • the guide for the flap that is, the translational guide, in the form of grooves in the lateral surfaces of the recesses, with which the corresponding joint or joint pin of the coupling element then interacts.
  • the translational guide can also be provided accordingly in the coupling member itself or on the side wall.
  • the ramp can be formed at different positions, in particular on the side wall in the area of the flap opening.
  • large load carriers which can be provided with a lid for closing the front opening of the large load carrier
  • At least one downwardly directed extension is provided on the outwardly directed side, in particular on the lower flap edge, which delimits a receiving pocket in which, in the closed position, an upwardly directed wall projection of the side wall is formed in the area of the flap opening is.
  • the wall projection can represent a guide for the folding movement of the flap, in particular at the beginning of the flap movement. It can be useful here to form the extension and wall projection and thus the receiving pocket as well as the ramp at the lower edge of the flap opening or in the area of the lower edge of the flap opening.
  • the flap can advantageously be provided with a handle, for example a swivel handle or with a handle opening.
  • Fig. 1 shows a large load carrier according to the invention, which has four circumferentially arranged side walls 2, 4, 6 and 8, wherein the side walls are hinged to a bottom 10 and at least one side wall has a closing flap 12, which is attached to the corresponding side wall with its lower flap edge 14 is hinged.
  • the floor has the usual support feet which delimit engagement openings for lifting devices, such as for the tines of forklifts, between them.
  • the large load carrier is made of plastic.
  • Fig. 2 shows the side wall 2 with further elements in an exploded view.
  • the flap has three recesses 16 on the lower flap edge 14, which in turn serve to accommodate three coupling elements 18.
  • the flap 12 is here articulated to the three (non-limiting) coupling elements 18, specifically by means of hinge pins 20, so that a total of three flap hinges are formed in that the hinge pins 20 on the one hand reach through the corresponding coupling elements 18 and on the other hand with their ends in each case in the Coupling elements 18 receiving flap recesses 16 are displaced.
  • the coupling elements 18 are again preferably connected to the lower edge 24 of the flap opening 26 via hinge pins 22, for which purpose again, purely by way of example, according to FIG Fig. 2 corresponding extensions 30 are formed on the lower edge 24 of the flap opening 26, in which the ends of the hinge pins 22 are displaced.
  • Fig. 3 shows a purely schematic sectional view through the side wall 2 in the region of the flap opening 26, the flap 12 being in the folded-down position in which the flap opening 26 is completely open.
  • the coupling element 18 shown in the drawing is in a horizontal position, that is to say perpendicular to the plane of the side wall 2, which, however, is again not mandatory.
  • the flap 12 is here in this downwardly pivoted folded position essentially parallel to the side wall 2.
  • the hinge pin 20 of the flap hinge is expediently received in a translatory manner in a guide groove 28 of the flap.
  • a guide groove 28 of the flap shows Fig. 3 only one coupling element in each case and also only one guide groove, although the guide grooves 28 are expediently formed on the two side edges of the recesses 16 which each receive the coupling elements 18, which is shown schematically in FIG Fig. 2 is shown in each case on the left side of the recess 16.
  • the guide groove 28 expediently extends in the plane of the side wall 12 and enables a translatory movement of the flap 12 relative to the hinge pin 20 stored, that is pivotable, but not translationally displaceable.
  • the coupling element could also be provided with a corresponding guide groove, in which case the hinge pin 20 could then move in a translatory manner in the coupling element.
  • corresponding guide grooves would only be possible in the extensions.
  • the embodiment shown in the figures is preferred, in which the guide grooves for the translational movement of the flap 12 are formed on the flap side.
  • Fig. 4 shows the flap after being pivoted up by about 90 °, the flap being in the horizontal direction, that is to say vertical to the plane of the side wall 2.
  • stop tongues 32 formed on the inside of the flap overlap the coupling elements on the inside of the flap 12, as shown in FIG Fig. 4 can be seen. This prevents the flap hinge from pivoting over when the flap 12 is pivoted up; Fig. 4 The position shown upwards, the flap 12 with the coupling element 18 in the off Fig. 4 apparent location or position.
  • Fig. 5 shows a further intermediate position during the folding up of the flap 12, with the further pivoting of the flap 12 the flap is displaced translationally in the direction of the coupling element 18 or slides down, which can be seen in that in Fig. 5 the hinge pin 20 of the flap-side hinge is located in the upper region of the guide groove 28 (see also the arrow information in this figure).
  • the device comprises, as from Fig. 6 It becomes clear, a forced guidance for the flap 12, which when pivoting the flap at the same time brings about a translational flap movement in the plane of the flap, so that the flap 12 is moved upwards in the direction of the upper edge of the side wall.
  • a ramp 34 is provided as a forced guidance, which in the illustrated embodiment has an inclined wall running upwards from the outer surface of the side wall 2 to the inner surface of the side wall 2 as a ramp surface, which is designated by 36.
  • the forced guidance comprises on the flap side a hook-like projection 42, preferably directed downwards here, which, like Fig. 6 shows in this in Fig. 6 shown pivoted-up position, in which, for example, the flap is located approximately at an angle of 6 ° to the vertical side wall, runs onto the inclined surface 36 of the ramp 34.
  • the hook-like projection 42 runs on the ramp 34 so that the flap 12 is lifted upwards
  • Fig. 7 shows a pivoted position of the flap very close to the vertical position of the side wall. In this position, the hook-like projection 42 is located at the upper end of the inclined surface 36 of the ramp 34.
  • a kinematic reversal of the arrangement of ramp and projection is also possible.
  • a second positive guide which has a second ramp 44 with an inclined surface 46, the inclined surface likewise running obliquely upwards from the outside to the inside.
  • the ramp 44 is undercut on the inside of the side wall, the undercut being indicated in the form of a groove with the reference numeral 48.
  • the forced guidance on the side of the flap 12 has a second, again hook-like projection 50 on the side edge of the flap, which, like the projection 42, is directed downward.
  • Fig. 7 As can be seen, in this pivoted position of the flap 12, the second projection 50 runs straight onto the inclined surface 46 of the second ramp 44 and, when the flap 12 is pivoted further, runs upwards on the incline, so that the flap 12 is raised further by the second inclined surface 46, until finally the in Fig. 9 position shown is reached, in which the projection 50 has overrun the ramp 44 and engages or engages with its outwardly directed nose or hook 52 below the inclined surface of the ramp, whereby the The flap 12 is locked in this closed position in which the flap 12 closes the flap opening 26. In this position after Fig.
  • the flap 12 has fallen translationally downwards, with, as also from Fig. 9 It can be seen, in this position, the first hook-shaped projection 42 engages behind the first ramp 34 and thus the flap 12 is also locked in this position.
  • the flap 12 can be unlocked in that, in the case of the embodiment with both ramps, the corresponding projections are correspondingly raised further upwards, so that the flap 12 is pivoted outward into the outward direction Fig. 3 apparent position is possible.
  • a spring preload is provided for the flap 12 in the closed position, which is explained purely by way of example with reference to the drawings.
  • a spring 54 is provided on each of the two edges 38, 40 of the side wall which laterally delimit the flap opening 26 and can expediently be clipped into the wall.
  • it can be tensioned vertically upwards when the flap 12 is moved into the closed position, so that a downward tension is produced. This ensures that the flap 12 is securely locked in the side wall 2.
  • To raise the flap 12 it is then necessary to pull the flap 12 vertically against the biasing force of the spring 54 upwards in order to then be able to pivot it.
  • the spring when the flap 12 is moved into the closed position to block the flap opening 26, the spring can also be pressed horizontally in the direction of the inside of the flap, with the result that when the flap 12 is pulled up to unlock the flap 12 is virtually automatically transferred into the flap position, so to speak, since the spring then pushes the flap 12 into the open position.
  • the function of the spring and its arrangement are also quite clear from the enlarged illustration in Fig. 8 can be seen, which also shows the clip-in part 56 of the spring.
  • the ramp can expediently be provided on both lateral edges of the flap 12 be.
  • two ramps arranged one above the other can be provided so that an upward movement occurs when the first ramp is driven over and, finally, a further upward movement occurs when the second ramp is passed over, which is particularly advantageous in the case of narrow side walls and flap walls, in order to avoid a corresponding lifting movement of the To generate flap.
  • FIGS. 10 to 16 show a further exemplary embodiment with, in principle, the same mode of operation as the previous exemplary embodiment, but with modifications explained below, the same reference numerals being used for the same or comparable components as in the preceding exemplary embodiment.
  • both the ramp 34 with the inclined surface 36 and elements 42 for locking the flap 12 in its vertical position downward in the direction of the lower flap edge 14 are arranged or formed.
  • Figure 11 shows the flap 12 in a slightly offset section with respect to the cutting plane Figure 10 , the flap being in the same functional position, that is to say in a vertical position in alignment with the side wall 2.
  • the guide groove 28 for the translational guidance of the flap 12 again preferably designed as an elongated hole, is shown.
  • Figure 13 shows the flap in an inclined position, the projection 42 running over the ramp 34 in this position.
  • Figure 14 shows the same functional position as Figure 13 , but in a sectional plane according to Figure 11 so that the guidance of the hinged bolt 20 on the flap side in the elongated hole 28 can be seen.
  • Figure 15 finally shows a position of the flap 12 close to the fully folded down position, the hinge pin 20 being in the upper region of the guide 28.
  • the flap 12 is completely folded onto the side wall, that is to say completely folded out downwards.
  • the flap has a tongue-like extension 58 on the outside of the container at the lower edge of the flap, which in the from Figures 10 and 11 apparent vertical position of the flap 12 engages behind an upwardly directed wall projection 60 of the side wall.
  • the tongue-like projection 58 delimits a receiving pocket 62, as best shown Figure 13 and 14th it can be seen in which in the Figures 10 and 11 apparent position engages the upwardly directed wall projection 60, which is formed in the area of the lower flap edge 24 directed upward.
  • Figure 12 shows a position in front of the functional position according to FIGS Figures 10 and 11 with a position of the flap 12 where it is currently in a vertical position and can move translationally downward, so that the receiving pocket 62 then the wall projection 60 according to FIGS Figures 10 and 11 overlaps.
  • Figure 13 shows a folded position, wherein the flap 12 is raised and can be folded outwards.
  • the wall projection 60 finally moves out of the receiving pocket 62 with the further flipping down, as is best Figure 14 emerges, and the flap 12 then rotates, so to speak, about the wall projection 60 downwards, which takes place here with the interposition of the coupling members 18.
  • FIG. 17 and 18th show a slightly modified embodiment in which the flap 12 is hinged to the lower edge 24 of the flap opening via only two flap hinges 64 and 66.
  • Figure 18 shows the flap 12 in its completely folded down position to release the flap opening 26. Aus Figure 18 the ramps 34 can also be clearly seen.
  • FIG. 3 shows a practicable embodiment of the articulation arrangement of the pivotable side wall 2 via three articulation formations in a construction known per se on the bottom of the large container.
