Definitions
- the present invention relates to pallets for shipping purposes and is especially concerned with the shipment of coils of metal strip but the invention may be equally applicable to the shipment of other products particularly in coil form but not necessarily so.
- a pallet may be subjected to severe forces due to impact when the pallet and its load is picked up and deposited by a forklift truck and furthermore during transportation forces are imposed due to substantial accelerations and decelerations.
- the pallet when the pallet is being moved by rail, during shunting operations to prevent damage to the product on the pallet, the pallet must support the product and restrain movement.
- the present invention consists in one aspect, in a pallet suitable for shipment of coils of metal strip or similar products and comprises a base for supporting the product, support means connected to the base and shaped and dimensioned for supporting the base and providing a clearance under the base for the insertion of forks of a forklift truck, and a centrally located dowel connected to the base and projecting upwardly therefrom for engaging within a central cavity in the product for restraining movement of the product in a plane parallel to the base.
- the dowel is of circular shape and tapered upwardly to facilitate location and engagement of the cavity in the product.
- the dowel can be of the order of 25mm to 75mm in height.
- the dowel typically will have a diameter of about 250mm and a taper of a few percent over the height of the dowel has proven to be convenient and satisfactory.
- embodiments of the invention are formed with the base of circular shape whereby a high density of packing of pallets can be achieved.
- the base could be of polygonal shape of at least five sides again to achieve high density packing.
- a standard shipping container will accommodate only three conventional timber pallets but four pallets in accordance with the present invention can be accommodated in the same space thereby offering substantial economic advantage.
- the support means comprises a multiplicity of legs in spaced array and most preferably the array permits the forks of a forklift truck to be inserted from any one of four directions.
- the array of legs includes a central space for accommodating the dowel of another pallet so that an interengaged stack can be formed.
- the pallet is formed as a single plastic moulding and it has been found that this can be achieved economically by low pressure injection moulding in polypropylene.
- a relatively cheap, lightweight and durable pallet can be formed.
- the pallet will weigh only about 16KG and the pallet is of competitive price having regard to its durability compared to timber pallets.
- Such a pallet is considered to be economic for export where return of the pallet is not feasible and in any event the pallet is of valuable plastic material which can be recycled to form other products after shipment of the coil.
- the invention extends to a lid of suitable form for use on a coil supported on a pallet and the invention also extends to a method of shipment using such items.
- Figure 1 is a perspective view from above of a pallet
- Figure 2 is a side elevation of the pallet
- Figure 3 is a sectional side elevation of the pallet taken along the line A-A in Figure 4
- Figure 4 is a plan view of the pallet
- Figure 5 is an inverted plan view of the pallet
- Figure 6 is a plan view of a complimentary lid to be used with the pallet of Figures 1 to 5;
- Figure 7 is a cross sectional view taken along the line B-B of Figure 6.
- the pallet and lid illustrated are each integrally formed in polypropylene by low pressure injection moulding in a single operation.
- the pallet comprises a circular base 10, having an upstanding peripheral lip 9, an integral upstanding dowel 11 and array of twelve support legs 12.
- the dowel is slightly tapered, has an internal cross-shaped strengthening wall 17, and is of the order of 50mm high.
- the pallet diameter is 1590mm and thus can accommodate a wide range of coil sizes.
- Each of the support legs is hollow and slightly tapered and stiffened by a set of radially outwardly extending buttress walls 15, and a cross-shaped interior webbing 16.
- the buttress In the case of the buttress walls 15A reaching the periphery of the base, the buttress is the full depth of the support legs but the other buttress walls 15 terminate short of the bottom of the support leg.
- a forklift truck can insert its forks in any one of four directions under the pallet. This facilitates pallet handling is an advantage over many one-trip pallets where strip-like supports for the base are used thereby restricting access of forks to two directions.
- the array of legs provides a high degree of stability irrespective of direction of any loads or forces during transportation.
- the base also includes a series of four notches 13 each defined by respective pairs of parallel walls 14 for accommodating strapping which can facilitate holding in place protective plastic sheeting.
- the lid 20 is of the same overall diametar as the pallet 10.
- the lid comprises a thin plastic disc-shaped portion 21 with a downwardly extending peripheral skirt 22 interrupted at four equally spaced locations 23, a central depending collar 24 and, extending from the upper surface, a central smaller location collar 25 and an array of location rings 26.
- the location rings 26 are dimensioned to accomodate and locate the bases of the support legs 12 of another pallet which may be placed on top of the lid to form a stack.
- the collar 25 is dimensioned and located to cooperate with the rings and depending collar 24 of another lid so lids may be stacked and located for shipment and storage.
- a series of four identical tie locators 27 are provided equally spaced around the lid, the radially outer portion of each locator being where there is an interruption 23 in the peripheral skirt 22.
- Each locator comprises a pair of spaced upstanding walls 28 extending substantially radially so that a tiedown strap passes between the walls and over the edge of the lid to secure the lid and a coil onto a supporting pallet.
- a series of transverse grooves or slots 29 are provided in the plastic material between the walls 28 thereby providing lines of weakening.
- a further feature which may be utilised is the provision of packing rings, the external dimension of the upstanding dowel 11 on the pallet being chosen to represent the smallest diameter used on a coiling machine. If machines providing a greater coil diameter are used then packing rings are simply inserted to make the coil a snug fit.
- the present invention can be applied in plastics material such as polypropylene which readily can be recycled when pallets become damaged. It is envisaged that a multiplicity of trips will be completed before pallet damage is likely. It is then a simple matter to reuse the material to make further lids and pallets.
- plastics material such as polypropylene which readily can be recycled when pallets become damaged. It is envisaged that a multiplicity of trips will be completed before pallet damage is likely. It is then a simple matter to reuse the material to make further lids and pallets.
- Embodiments of the invention can be utilised with plastic wrapping materials so that a completely weather tight package is provided to protect valuable products such as thin aluminium strips when in transit from the place of manufacture to the place of utilisation.
- Embodiments of the invention permit fast, safe and reliable handling with minimal chance of coil damage and wastage compared with conventional palletisation and delivery systems.
Abstract
Une palette en plastique moulé, destinée à des bobines de métal, comprend une base (10), une série de pieds de support (12) permettant l'insertion des fourches d'un chariot élévateur à fourches à partir d'une multiplicité de directions et un goujon vertical central (11) s'engageant dans la cavité centrale d'une bobine afin d'en restreindre les mouvements dans un plan parallèle à la base au cours de l'expédition. Un couvercle complémentaire (20) peut être utilisé, lequel est pourvu d'éléments de positionnement verticaux (26) dans lesquels peuvent être placés les pieds de support (12) d'une autre palette placée dans la pile, et des éléments de positionnement (27, 28), destinés à la fixation par sangles, sont prévus pour assujettir une bobine et maintenir fermement le bord de la bobine, même lorsque celle-ci présente un diamètre inférieur à celui du couvercle (20).A molded plastic pallet, intended for metal coils, comprises a base (10), a series of support legs (12) allowing the insertion of the forks of a forklift truck from a multiplicity of directions and a central vertical stud (11) engaging in the central cavity of a coil in order to restrict its movements in a plane parallel to the base during the shipment. A complementary cover (20) can be used, which is provided with vertical positioning elements (26) in which the support legs (12) of another pallet placed in the stack can be placed, and positioning elements ( 27, 28), intended for fixing by straps, are provided for securing a coil and firmly holding the edge of the coil, even when the latter has a diameter less than that of the cover (20).
