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

Method for transporting a container or pallet with cargo, wherein at least one transport device is used comprising a frame consisting of an elongate central member (11) and carrying beams (12), each carrying beam (12) extending perpendicular to the central member (11) in the same direction from a different end of the central member (11) thus forming a generally U-shaped frame, wherein in use saidU-shaped frame extends in a generally horizontal orientation, said carrying beams being arranged to engage and carry a bottom part of a container or a pallet, wherein the bottom side of said frame isprovided with a plurality of air bearings (13) arranged to lift said frame with said cargo from a flat floor surface, wherein a container or pallet to be transported is moved into or out of a vehicleat an transshipment location, wherein for transporting said container or pallet in or out of said vehicle said container or pallet is engaged and lifted by said at least one transport device by activating said air bearings (13), wherein said transport device is moved in and / or out of said vehicle while said air bearings (13) are activated, and wherein said transport device is disengaged from saidcontainer or pallet by deactivating said air bearings (13).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method and a transport device for transporting containers or pallets with goods. 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 the truck to the aircraft and vice versa, and have to be moved into the aircraft. ...
