Embodiment Construction

[0016] According to the figures, a transport device for moving containers or pallets 1 with air cargo comprises an elongated central member 2 and a load-carrying beam 3 . The load beams 3 extend from different ends of the central member 2 perpendicular to the central member 2 in the same direction, forming a U-shaped frame. Four inwardly facing engaging members 4 are provided on the inwardly facing sides of the load beams 3, one near each end of the load beams 3, to engage and clamp the bottom of the container or pallet 1 between the load beams 3 . The joint member 4 has a substantially L-shaped shape, such that the lower horizontal plate-like portion of the L-shaped joint member can be moved inwardly by a pneumatic drive under the side of the container or pallet, so that the joint member can be pushed upwards, and the L-shaped The vertical planar inwardly facing surfaces of the engagement members may be urged inwardly by the drive against the underside of the container or ag...

Abstract

A method for transporting containers or pallets with cargo using at least one transport device comprising a frame consisting of an elongated central member (11) and a load-carrying beam (12). Each load beam (12) extends from different ends of the central member (11) in the same direction perpendicular to the central member (11), thereby forming a generally U-shaped frame. In use, the U-shaped frame extends in a generally horizontal direction. The load beam is configured to engage and carry the bottom of the container or pallet. The underside of the frame is provided with a plurality of air bearings (13) arranged to lift the frame with cargo from the flat platform surface. At the transshipment location, containers or pallets to be transported are moved into or out of the carrier. To transport the container or pallet into or out of the vehicle, by activating the air bearing (13), at least one transport device engages and lifts the container or pallet. The transport device is moved into or out of the vehicle while the air bearing (13) is activated, and the transport device is disengaged from the container or pallet by deactivating the air bearing (13).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to transport devices for moving containers or pallets loaded with goods. A similar device is described in European patent application publication number EP0508447A2. Although the invention has been described in relation to air cargo, the invention can also be used in other modes of transportation such as trains, trucks and ships. Background technique [0002] In air cargo transportation, standard containers and pallets are increasingly used. The most commonly used cases and pallets have a footprint of 317.5 cm in length and a width of between 150 cm and 244 cm, or smaller pallets have a footprint of 120 cm in length and 80 cm in width. In smaller aircraft, cargo is also replaced by air cargo containers. During the transport and transfer of containers, at suppliers, at airports and inside aircraft, there are many transfer occasions. Containers have to be transferred from the storage space to the truck and vice versa, or from th...
