Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a pallet mainly used for storing motorcycles, etc., which has a good automatic fixing effect on the loaded motorcycles when being transported via a forklift, and The present invention is characterized in that it is constructed so that it can be extremely easily secured to and released from the loaded motorcycle at any time, even when not in use of a forklift.

Conventionally, when storing motorcycles using a pallet as shown in Design Registration No. 380556, in order to prevent the motorcycle from tipping over during transportation via a forklift, it is necessary to store the motorcycle on the pallet. It was customary to secure the required number of bikes together with ropes, etc. However, with this type of rope, not only is it extremely troublesome to attach and detach the rope, but if the rope is tied down for a long time, the part that the rope touches may rub and cause damage to the car body. It was inevitable that there would be financial damage as described above.

In the present invention, when a forklift is used for transportation, a collective fixing action is automatically applied to the loaded bikes based on the insertion of the fork, and the fixing action is automatically canceled based on the removal of the fork. The present invention is constructed so that it is possible to stabilize the loaded bike in a collectively fixed state and release it at any time based on a simple lever operation even when the bike is not in use. This is characterized by the fact that problems with conventional pallets have been solved.

The configuration of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a rectangular board made of a plate material stretched over the entire surface of the four-periphery frame, and pillars 2 are erected at the four corners of the board, with the lower end serving as the grounding end. . 3a and 3a' are front half fork insertion frames fixed symmetrically on the lower front half side of the board 1;
b, 3b' are rear fork insertion frames fixed at a predetermined interval on the rear extension line of the front fork insertion frame, and both fork insertion frames 3a, 3
The distal end portions of operating levers 4, 4, as described below, for operating a bike fixing mechanism, which will be described later, are respectively exposed at the opposed spaced portions of a', 3b, and 3b'.

Reference numeral 4 indicates an operation for constructing a push-up plate 4b having an inverted side mountain shape near the tips of the opposing side levers 4a, 4a, and hooking the lower end of a fixing linear rod 7 described later on the rear end thereof. The pair of operating levers 4, 4, which are operating levers for constructing the rod 4c, are:
The push-up plate 4b is located within the opposing interval between the two fork insertion frames 3a, 3a' and 3b, 3b', and the push-up plate 4b is pivoted in such a state that it is pushed up based on the insertion of the fork. It is rotatably attached to the substrate 1 via 5. Reference numeral 4d designates sheath tubes for shaft insertion installed at required locations on both side levers 4a, 4a.

Reference numeral 6 denotes a rod-shaped body for fixing a bike, which has an inner ring length slightly longer than the front width of the base plate 1. A cushioning material 6a such as a sponge is attached to the lower surface of the rod-shaped body 6. This is intended to be placed all at once on the upper surface of the seat portion of the bikes stacked in an orderly manner, and to secure the bikes based on its pressing force. Although one motorcycle is exemplarily shown in the drawings, in the illustrated embodiment, five motorcycles are loaded side by side.

A, A are tightening bodies fixed to the lower surfaces of both ends of the rod-shaped body 6 for fixing the bike, and 7, 7 are linear rod members having an annular retainer 7a connected to the upper end; 7, 7 pass through the fastening bodies A, A fixed on both ends of the rod-shaped body 6 for fixing the bike and the lower surface thereof, and also pass through the required through holes drilled in the base plate 1. It is guided to the lower surface side and is hooked onto each operating rod 4c of the operating levers 4, 4 described above. Reference numeral 7b is a hook portion formed at the lower end of the linear rod member 7, and is for hooking on the operating rod 4c in a detachable manner.

The above-mentioned tightening bodies A and A are for connecting the rod-shaped body 6 for fixing the bike to the linear rod members 7, 7, and usually the rod-shaped body 6 is When placed on the seat of a loaded bike, the rod-shaped body 6 is fixed at a position where the lower ends of the linear rods 7, 7 reach the operating rods 4c of the operating levers 4, 4. The first purpose is to use the tightening body A itself to firmly press the rod-shaped body 6 against the bike and release the pressure. The configuration of the tightening body A will be described in detail below.

Reference numeral 10 denotes a base frame with a frontal shape fixed to the lower surface of the end of the rod-shaped body 6 for fixing the bike; 11 is a fixed side lever fixed to the base frame 10, and a horizontal board connected to the base end thereof; The portion 11a has a bottom plate shape by closing the lower part of the base frame 10, and has an insertion hole 11b formed almost in the center thereof for slidably inserting the linear rod 7 described above. . In addition, the insertion hole 11b
The insertion holes 6b and 10a, through which the linear rods 7 are inserted, are formed in the ends of the bike fixing rods 6 and the top plate of the base frame 10, respectively, and are arranged on the same axis. ing.

12 is a pivot 12a for the fixed lever 11.
It is a movable side lever that is swingably pivoted via the movable side lever, and an actuation pin 12b is attached to the base end thereof. 13 is an engagement hole 13a bored in the center thereof.
On the other hand, this is a first stopper piece into which the previously described linear rod 7 is inserted, one end of which is in contact with the horizontal plate portion 11a, and the other end of which is engaged with the operating pin 12b. The stopper piece 13 usually has its engagement hole 13
A linear rod 7 is slidably inserted into the inside of a, and when the movable lever 12 is rotated in the direction of the arrow in FIG. As a result, the edge of the engagement hole 13a bites into the surface of the linear rod 7 (as shown in FIG. 10, the edge of the hole at the upper left end bites). ), based on the rotational rise of the stopper piece 13, the linear rod member 7 is pushed upward, thereby allowing the bike fixing rod member 6 to be relatively lowered. There is. 1
Reference numeral 4 denotes a restoring spring that acts to push down the first stopper piece 13.

A second stopper 15 is swingably attached to the lowermost end of the base frame 10 by inserting a rotating shaft 15a fixed to the base end into a horizontally long hole 10b formed in the base frame 10. A linear rod member 7 is inserted into a stopper hole 15b formed in the substantially central portion of the piece. Further, a spring 16 is applied to the second stopper piece 15 to apply rotational force to push it down.
As a result, the second stopper piece 15 usually
The hole edge of the stopper hole 15b bites into the surface of the linear rod material 7 (as shown in FIGS. 9 and 11, the right upper end hole edge bites), and as a result, as shown in FIG. The bike fixing rod 6 is prevented from rising relative to the member 7, and this can be prevented by pushing up the tip of the second stopper piece 15 and rotating it slightly clockwise in the figure. It is designed to be released.

The present invention has the above-mentioned configuration, and now, in the state shown in FIGS. While placing the rod-shaped body 6, the fixed length of the linear rod to the rod-shaped body 6 is adjusted so that the lower end of the linear rod 7 is connected to the operating lever 4c of the operating lever 4 in a straight line. Keep it taut. Such length adjustment can be performed using the second stopper piece 1 in the tightening body A as described above.
5 (the stopper piece 1
5, the rod-shaped body 6 can freely descend relative to the linear rod 7, but is restricted from rising. ).

Next, when the pallet of the present invention is transferred via a forklift, when the fork is inserted into the front and rear fork insertion frames 3a, 3a' and 3b, 3b', the tip of the fork is As a result, the operating levers 4, 4 hit the push-up plate 4b exhibiting an inverted crest shape and are pushed up along the inverted angled tapered surface, so that the operating levers 4, 4 rotate. Moving and the basement ends will descend. Therefore, the linear rod members 7, 7 connected to the operating rod 4c installed at the rear end of the operating lever are pulled downward, and the bike fixing rod 6 is thereby lowered and the bike is fixed. The seat is pressed from above to secure the bike.

When the fork is pulled out after the transfer is completed, the pushing up of the operating levers 4, 4 by the fork is canceled, and as a result of the operating levers 4, 4 being restored by their own weight, the linear rod members 7, Based on the cancellation of the pulling force 7, the fixation to the bike by the rod-shaped body 6 is released. Therefore, the problem of deformation of the seat due to the pressing force, which would occur if the rod-shaped body 6 was always in pressure contact with the seat of the motorcycle, can be avoided.

Next, when the forklift is not used and it is necessary to secure it to the loaded bike, grasp the fixed side lever 11 and the movable side lever 12 of the tightening body A under the condition shown in the drawing, and then tighten the movable side lever. 12, the actuating pin 12b is moved to rotate the first stopper piece 13 in a clockwise direction in FIG. 13a in the same figure, the hole edge at the upper left end bites into the linear rod 7 and pushes it up as shown in FIG. By lowering the 6th side, pressing and fixing to the bike will be achieved.

In addition, in order to release the press fixation made as described above, rotate the second stopper piece 15 slightly clockwise with respect to FIG.
This can be easily achieved by eliminating the stopper effect caused by b.

The present invention is based on a pallet in which pillars 2 are erected at the four corners of a board 1 and fork insertion frames are formed on the underside of the board 1, and the seats of each bike are stacked on the board 1 in an orderly manner. The upper ends of the linear rod members 7, 7 are slidably inserted into both ends of the rod-shaped body 6 for fixing the bike to be placed all at once on the bike.
A linear rod material 7 is inserted into the rod-shaped body 6 through which the linear rod material is inserted.
a first stopper piece 1 for engaging with the lever and causing forced downward movement of the rod-like body 6 based on lever operation;
3, and a second member for releasably engaging with the linear rod member 7 to restrict upward movement relative to the rod member 6.
The operating levers 4, 4 have fastening bodies A, A having a stopper piece 15 fixedly installed therein, and have their tips freely exposed within the fork insertion frame described above.
This relates to a motorcycle loading pallet characterized in that the linear rod members 7, 7 are rotatably mounted on the base plate 1, and the lower ends of the linear rod members 7, 7 are connected to the base ends of the operating levers 4, 4. .

Since the present invention adopts the above-mentioned configuration, based on the action described above, when the forklift is used for transportation, the loaded bike is automatically fixed to the loaded bike based on the fork insertion, and the loaded bike is fixed during the transfer. This will completely eliminate the occurrence of accidents such as falls. Furthermore, after the transfer is completed, the fixation to the loaded bike is automatically released when the fork is pulled out, so problems such as deformation of the seat of the bike due to long-term fixation occur. is often avoided.

Furthermore, the present invention allows the fixing action to be applied to the loaded bike at will by operating the tightening bodies A, A attached to the bike fixing rod 6, even when not being transported by a forklift as described above. Since the fixing action can be performed and canceled based on a simple lever operation, the work that occurs when fixing to a loaded bike as with conventional pallets depends on rope hanging work. The complication of the above is completely eliminated, and damage such as damage to the bike itself due to rubbing of the part touched by the rope due to long rope hanging is completely eliminated.

As described above, the present invention has a simple structure and has outstanding practical effects, so the present invention has a particularly high utility value as a pallet for loading a motorcycle.
