Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a transport unit for foodstuff products.
  • the present invention regards a transport unit of a pallet type, i.e., of the type comprising:
  • the products P preferably have rigid packagings, for example made of glass, plastic, metal, as well as paper or cardboard.
  • the unit 10 is prearranged for being moved, within an industrial plant or a warehouse, using specific equipment, such as forklift trucks, pallet trolleys, etc.
  • the transport unit described herein is, moreover, designed to be used as structure for the display of the products in the sales point.
  • the transport unit described herein has a configuration that renders clearly visible the products and enables communication to the consumer.
  • the aforesaid supports 2 are constituted by trays, each of which has a bottom 22 and side walls 24 that surround the bottom and which are characterized in that they have a small height as compared to the height of the products P, preferably less than half the height of the latter.
  • the trays 2 containing the products P are prearranged for being stacked on top of one another according to a condition in which the bottom of each tray that overlies another tray of the stack, rests directly on the products carried by the latter so that the weight of the stack of products is supported by the products themselves.
  • the trays 2 do not require a particularly rigid and strong structure.
  • the stack of trays 2 containing the products P rests directly on the top surface 1A of the pallet 1.
  • the pallet 1 has two resting feet 1B set at a distance from one another to enable insertion of forks or equivalent members of the means for handling goods normally used in industry and logistics.
  • the pallet 1 is made of plastic or wood, or cardboard material.
  • the transport unit described herein further comprises a covering panel 4, which is prearranged for covering preferably two or three sides of the stack of trays 2.
  • the panel 4 has dimensions such as to identify three distinct portions 4A, 4B, 4C, which are connected together by two folding lines (not visible), and are prearranged for covering, respectively, the rear face and the two lateral faces of the stack of trays 2.
  • the height of the panel 4 is such that its edge terminates at the same level of the top end of the products of the top tray 2, or else above it.
  • the band 6 performs the multiple functions of communication to the consumer, protection from impact (during transport and at the sales point), and support for the covering panel 4.
  • the transport unit described herein hence has at least one side for display of the products, and at least one side for presentation of the brand or of advertisements.
  • the protections 28 are defined by the same sheet or panel that constitutes the bottom 22 and the side walls 24 of the individual trays.
  • the above protections have the function of protecting the products from any possible impact during transport of the unit 10, as well as inside the sales point, for example form possible impact by shopping trolleys used in the sales point.
  • Figure 3 illustrates a sheet obtained according to a paperboard-manufacturing process, which has a pre-set contour and predefined folding lines (i.e., creases) so that the tray 2 illustrated in Figures 1 and 2 can be assembled in only one way.
  • the sheet shown for constructing a tray for the transport unit described herein comprises a central portion 202, designed to define the bottom 22 of the tray, and at least two portions 204 that can be folded with respect to one another, connected to each side of the central portion 202, for defining double lateral walls 24.
  • the two portions 204 designed to define a single double lateral wall are fixed via slotting in the condition where they are folded against one another; for example, as in the embodiment illustrated, the outer portion 204 may present projecting tabs 204A at its end edge, which are to fit into corresponding slots 202' provided on the central portion 202.
  • the aforesaid protections are defined by just two portions 204, which are directly connected to the central portion 202 and are located in positions opposite to the central portion.
  • each of these portions 204 the protections 28 are defined by two widened ends 205 that have a generic quadrangular profile and are positioned at opposite corners of the sheet.
  • Each of the aforesaid ends has a predefined folding line 205', to be folded in the corresponding angular configuration envisaged.
  • the sheet 200 may be fixed in its folded configuration to define the tray 2 with the aid of glue.
  • the transport unit described herein is assembled directly in the industrial production plant, and in the configuration that has been described may be used for the transport of products from the industrial plant to the sales point.
  • the unit may then be directly positioned in the sales area.
