Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a tray for bundling glass plates and a glass plate conveying body having the tray for bundling glass plates. Background Technology

[0002] Previously, for example, in the field of manufacturing glass sheets for panel displays such as liquid crystal display devices and organic EL display devices, there were known glass sheet bundling pallets for bundling manufactured glass sheets and then loading them into shipping containers for delivery to domestic and foreign glass consumers.

[0003] Generally speaking, the aforementioned glass plate bundling pallets, taking into account loading efficiency into the transport container, are structures that stack multiple glass plates together to form a glass plate stack and hold the glass plate stack in a horizontal or approximately horizontal position (slightly tilted relative to an imaginary horizontal plane).

[0004] Furthermore, there are cases where glass plate bundles, which maintain a stack of glass plates, are housed in a transport container in a longitudinally stacked state and then transported to a designated destination. In this case, the upper-level glass plate bundles are susceptible to vibrations and sudden impacts during transport, posing a risk of breakage or damage to the glass plates bundled by the upper-level bundles.

[0005] Therefore, it is known from the past that there are packaging trays (glass plate packaging trays) with shock-absorbing sheets (vibration damping members) provided on the upper end surface of the guide member (support), as disclosed in Patent Document 1.

[0006] If a glass plate bundling pallet is constructed with this structure, even when transported in a longitudinally stacked state, a vibration damping member is sandwiched between the upper-level glass plate bundling pallet and the lower-level glass plate bundling pallet. Therefore, the vibration damping member can effectively absorb vibrations and sudden impacts during transport and suppress possible breakage or damage to the glass plate.

[0010] The problem to be solved by utility models

[0011] However, the self-weight of glass plate bundled pallets in the state of glass plate stacking can reach more than 2000 kg. Therefore, in the case of conventional glass plate bundled pallets with rubber anti-vibration members as described above, the anti-vibration members tend to come into close contact with both the upper end surface of the support of the lower glass plate bundled pallet and the lower surface of the upper glass plate bundled pallet (i.e., the upper glass plate bundled pallet and the lower glass plate bundled pallet are easily bonded together by the anti-vibration members). As a result, it is difficult to unload the stacked glass plate bundled pallets from the transport container at the transport destination, which may lead to a deterioration in the workability of unpacking glass plate bundled pallets.

[0012] This invention was made in view of the current problems described above. The objective is to provide a glass plate bundling tray comprising a support portion supporting a glass plate stack consisting of multiple stacked glass plates from below, a base portion having a rectangular shape in plan view disposed on the lower surface of the support portion, and four pillars respectively erected at the four corners of the upper surface of the base portion, and a glass plate conveyor body formed by stacking the glass plate bundling body longitudinally. Even when a vibration damping member is sandwiched between the upper and lower glass plate bundling trays, the workability of the unbundling operation of the glass plate bundling tray can be prevented from deteriorating.

[0013] Solution for solving the problem

[0014] The problem to be solved by this utility model is as described above. The solution to solve this problem will be described below.

[0015] That is, the glass plate bundling tray of Scheme 1 of this utility model includes: a support portion that supports a glass plate stack composed of multiple stacked glass plates from below; a rectangular base portion in plan view that is disposed on the lower surface of the support portion; and support columns that are respectively erected at the four corners of the upper surface of the base portion. The glass plate bundling tray is characterized in that it further includes: rubber vibration damping members that are disposed on the upper end face of each of the support columns or at the four corners of the lower surface of the base portion; and a tight-fitting anti-vibration member that is stacked on the vibration damping member.

[0016] Thus, in the glass plate bundling tray of this utility model, a tight-fitting prevention member is provided layered on the rubber anti-vibration member. Therefore, even when stacked longitudinally, since the tight-fitting prevention member is sandwiched between at least one of the lower surface of the base portion of the upper glass plate bundling tray and the anti-vibration member, and between the upper end surface of the support column of the lower glass plate bundling tray and the anti-vibration member, it is possible to prevent the anti-vibration member from sticking tightly to both the upper and lower glass plate bundling trays.

[0017] Therefore, the glass plate bundling pallet according to this utility model can prevent the upper-level glass plate bundling pallet from sticking to the lower-level glass plate bundling pallet through the anti-vibration component, and can suppress the deterioration of the unloading operation when unloading stacked glass plate bundling pallets from the transport container, thereby improving the unbundling operation of the glass plate bundling pallet.

[0018] In the glass plate bundling tray of Scheme 2 of this utility model, as described in Scheme 1 above, the vibration damping member is preferably disposed on the upper end face of the support column, and the tight-fitting anti-vibration member is disposed on the upper surface of the vibration damping member.

[0019] With this structure, the glass plate bundling tray according to the present invention can prevent the rubber vibration damping member from sticking tightly to the lower surface of the base of the upper glass plate bundling tray when stacked longitudinally, by means of a tight-fitting anti-vibration member.

[0020] In the glass plate bundling tray of Scheme 3 of this utility model, preferably in Scheme 1 or Scheme 2 above, the glass plate bundling tray further includes a metal support plate sandwiched between the vibration damping member and the anti-adhesion member. The support plate is formed with the same shape as the vibration damping member when viewed from above. The vibration damping member, the anti-adhesion member, and the support plate are all fixed to the upper end face of the support column by a through fastening member.

[0021] With this structure, the glass plate bundling tray according to the present invention can utilize a metal support plate to suppress the gradual local elastic deformation of the rubber vibration damping member under the action of the fastening force of the fastening member when the fastening member is screwed onto the upper end face of the support column, thereby stably fixing the vibration damping member to the upper end face of the support column and tightly adhering to the vibration damping member.

[0022] The glass plate bundling tray of Scheme 4 of this utility model is characterized in that, in any one of Schemes 1 to 3 above, the vibration damping member is disposed at the four corners of the lower surface of the base portion, and the close-fitting anti-vibration member is disposed on the lower surface of the vibration damping member.

[0023] With this structure, the glass plate bundling tray according to the present invention can prevent the rubber anti-vibration member from being in close contact with the upper surface of the support of the lower glass plate bundling tray when stacked longitudinally, by means of a tight-fitting anti-vibration member.

[0024] In any of the above-mentioned schemes 1 to 4, the preferred embodiment of the glass plate bundling tray of Scheme 5 of this utility model is that the support column has a protrusion protruding upward from the center of the upper end face, the base portion has four corners provided on the lower surface and capable of engaging with the protrusion, and the vibration damping member and the tight-fitting prevention member have through holes through which the protrusion can pass.

[0025] With this structure, the glass plate bundling tray according to the present invention can be stacked longitudinally in a more stable state by engaging the protrusion of the lower-level glass plate bundling tray with the fitting part of the upper-level glass plate bundling tray.

[0026] Furthermore, through holes are provided in the vibration damping members and the contact prevention members, allowing the protrusions to pass through. Thus, these vibration damping members and contact prevention members can be reliably positioned between the lower surface of the base of the upper glass plate bundling tray and the upper end surface of the support column of the lower glass plate bundling tray by means of the through holes, avoiding interference with the protrusions.

[0027] The glass plate conveying body of Scheme 6 of this utility model is formed by stacking glass plate bundles longitudinally. The glass plate bundles are formed by placing a glass plate stack consisting of multiple stacked glass plates on a glass plate bundling tray. The glass plate bundling tray includes: a support portion that supports the glass plate stack from below; a rectangular base portion disposed on the lower surface of the support portion; and support columns erected at the four corners of the upper surface of the base portion. The glass plate conveying body is characterized by being located at the lower... The glass plate bundling tray of the first level has a rubber vibration damping member between the support column and the base portion of the glass plate bundling tray of the upper level, which reduces the transmission of vibration in the vertical direction. The glass plate conveying body has a contact prevention member between at least one of the vibration damping member and the support column of the glass plate bundling tray of the lower level, and between the vibration damping member and the base portion of the glass plate bundling tray of the upper level, to prevent the vibration damping member from sticking tightly to the glass plate bundling tray.

[0028] With this structure, the glass plate conveyor according to the present invention can prevent the glass plate bundling trays located at the upper and lower levels from sticking together, even when glass plate bundling trays are stacked longitudinally. This is because a contact prevention member is provided between at least one of the vibration damping member and the support of the lower-level glass plate bundling tray, and between the vibration damping member and the base of the upper-level glass plate bundling tray.

[0029] Therefore, the glass plate conveyor according to this utility model can prevent the glass plate bundling pallet located at the upper level from sticking together with the glass plate bundling pallet located at the lower level through the anti-vibration member, and can suppress the deterioration of the workability of the unloading operation when unloading the stacked glass plate bundling pallets from the transport container, thereby improving the unbundling operation of the glass plate bundling pallets.

[0030] In the glass plate conveying body of Scheme 7 of this utility model, as described in Scheme 6 above, it is preferred that the vibration damping member and the tight-fitting prevention member are composed of a structure that is separate from the tray for bundling the glass plate.

[0031] With this structure, the glass plate conveyor according to this invention can be easily replaced with new vibration damping components and anti-adhesion components even if the rubber vibration damping components and anti-adhesion components deteriorate over the years due to long-term use, for example.

[0032] Utility Model Effect

[0033] As a result of this utility model, it achieves the effects shown below.

[0034] That is, according to the glass plate bundling tray and glass plate conveyor of the present invention, even when a vibration damping component is sandwiched between the upper glass plate bundling tray and the lower glass plate bundling tray, the workability of the unbundling operation of the glass plate bundling tray can be prevented from deteriorating.

[0059] Next, use Figures 1 to 4 One embodiment of this utility model will be described.

[0060] [Structure of tray 1 for bundling glass plates]

[0061] First, use Figure 1 as well as Figure 2 The structure of the glass plate bundling tray 1 in this embodiment will be described.

[0062] exist Figure 1 In the manufacturing process of glass sheets used as glass substrates and cover glass for panel displays such as liquid crystal displays and organic EL displays, multiple glass sheets Ga are bundled together and then loaded into a transport container for delivery to domestic and international glass customers.

[0063] Here, the glass plate Ga is a rectangular flat glass component with external dimensions (longitudinal dimension × transverse dimension) of (1000mm × 1200mm) or more and (3000mm × 3400mm) or less, and a thickness of 0.2mm or more and 2.0mm or less.

[0064] In addition, multiple glass plates Ga are stacked together while sandwiching a protective sheet (not shown), for example, made of rectangular sheet-shaped pure pulp paper (backing paper). Thus, a glass plate laminate G is formed.

[0065] It should be noted that, generally speaking, the outer dimensions of the aforementioned protective sheet are set to be one size larger than the outer dimensions of the glass plate Ga.

[0066] In addition, the raw materials for the aforementioned protective sheets are not limited to pure pulp paper; for example, they can also be foamed resin sheets, non-foamed resin sheets, etc.

[0067] Furthermore, the formed glass plate stack G is placed on the stage 20 in a horizontal position and is bundled by the glass plate bundling tray 1.

[0068] It should be noted that the placement posture of the glass plate stack G in the glass plate bundling tray 1 is not limited to a horizontal posture. For example, it can also be a roughly horizontal posture that is slightly tilted relative to an imaginary horizontal plane.

[0069] The glass plate bundling tray 1 mainly includes a base 10, a platform 20 disposed on the upper surface 10a of the base 10, and a support column 30.

[0070] In addition, the glass plate bundling tray 1 has a vibration damping component 40 and a tight-fitting prevention component 50 (see reference). Figure 2 ).

[0071] It should be noted that the base 10 is an example of the base portion of this utility model.

[0072] In addition, the mounting platform 20 is an example of the support portion of this utility model.

[0073] The base 10 is the part that serves as the base for the tray 1 used for bundling glass plates.

[0074] The base 10 is constructed using steel, such as aluminum alloy, and is a loading platform with a generally rectangular shape when viewed from above. Multiple openings 11 are provided on the side end faces of its periphery, which are capable of having transport claws for inserting forklifts, etc.

[0075] Additionally, on the lower surface 10b of the base 10 (refer to...) Figure 2 Each of the four corners of the support column 30 is provided with a fitting part 12 that can fit into the protrusion 31 provided on the upper end surface of the support column 30.

[0076] It should be noted that details regarding the structure of the fitting part 12 will be described later.

[0077] The mounting stage 20 is the part that loads the glass plate laminate G in a flat position and supports the glass plate laminate G from below.

[0078] The mounting platform 20 is also similar to the base platform 10, for example, made of steel such as aluminum alloy and formed into a rectangular shape when viewed from above, and its upper surface 20a functions as a support surface for supporting the glass plate laminate G.

[0079] The top-view dimensions of the stage 20 (i.e., the dimensions of the upper surface 20a) are set to be approximately the same as or slightly larger than the dimensions of the glass plate Ga.

[0080] It should be noted that the external dimensions of the stage 20 in this embodiment are set to be approximately the same as those of the glass plate Ga.

[0081] In addition, the aforementioned external dimensions of the mounting platform 20 are set to be slightly smaller than the external dimensions of the base 10 when viewed from above.

[0082] Furthermore, the mounting platform 20 is disposed at the center of the upper surface 10a of the base 10 and is integrally formed with the base 10.

[0083] It should be noted that multiple upwardly protruding limiting plates 21 are detachably fixed at the periphery of the mounting platform 20 using fastening components such as bolts.

[0084] Furthermore, the glass plate laminate G is placed on the upper surface 20a of the stage 20 in a flat position while its position is restricted by the aforementioned multiple limiting plates 21.

[0085] The support column 30 is used to support the lower glass plate bundle 1 and the upper glass plate bundle 1 when multiple glass plate bundle 1 are stacked longitudinally.

[0086] The support column 30, like the base 10, is formed using a hollow rod-shaped member with a cross-sectional rectangular shape, made of steel such as aluminum alloy, and extending to one side.

[0087] The support columns 30 are integrally installed with the base 10 at the four corners of the upper surface 10a of the base 10, respectively. In addition, the support columns 30 can also be installed in a way that allows them to be detached from the base 10.

[0088] In addition, such as Figure 2 As shown, the upper end of the support column 30 is blocked by the upper end surface 30a, and a protrusion 31 protruding upward is provided in the center of the upper end surface 30a.

[0089] The protrusion 31 is a prism-shaped part made of steel such as aluminum alloy, and a tapered part 31a is formed at its upper end, which tends to rise and gradually reduces in cross-sectional area.

[0090] In addition, the protrusion 31 is arranged approximately coaxially with respect to the four fitting portions 12 (more specifically, the holes 12a described later) provided on the lower surface of the base 10.

[0091] On the other hand, each fitting portion 12 is provided with an upwardly extending hole portion 12a.

[0092] The aforementioned hole 12a is formed with a shape that is approximately the same as that of the protrusion 31, and its inner dimensions are set to be slightly larger than the cross-sectional shape of the protrusion 31.

[0093] Furthermore, when multiple glass plate bundling trays 1 are stacked longitudinally, the protrusion 31 of the lower-level glass plate bundling tray 1 is inserted into the hole 12a of the upper-level glass plate bundling tray 1 and engages with the fitting part 12 having the hole 12a.

[0094] Therefore, by limiting the positional offset of the upper-level glass plate bundling tray 1 relative to the lower-level glass plate bundling tray 1, multiple glass plate bundling trays 1 can be stacked longitudinally in a more stable state.

[0095] The vibration damping component 40 reduces the transmission of vibrations and sudden impacts to the upper glass plate bundled pallet 1 when multiple glass plate bundled pallets 1 are stacked longitudinally.

[0096] The vibration damping component 40 is made of a rubber plate-shaped component, and its external dimensions are set to be approximately the same as the external dimensions of the upper end face 30a of the support column 30.

[0097] A through hole 40a is provided in the center of the vibration damping component 40.

[0098] The aforementioned through hole 40a is, for example, formed by a shape that is approximately the same as the cross-sectional shape of the protrusion 31 of the support 30, and its inner dimension is set to be slightly larger than the outer dimension of the cross-sectional shape of the protrusion 31.

[0099] Furthermore, the vibration damping member 40 is disposed on the upper end surface 30a of the support column 30 with the protrusion 31 passing through the through hole 40a.

[0100] The anti-vibration member 40 prevents vibration from being in close contact with the lower surface 10b of the glass plate bundle 1 and the upper end surface 30a of the support column 30 of the lower glass plate bundle 1 when multiple glass plate bundle trays 1 are stacked longitudinally due to the weight of the upper glass plate bundle tray 1.

[0101] The close-fitting anti-corrosion component 50 is, for example, a plate-shaped component made of resin such as polypropylene (PP) or polyethylene (PE), and its external dimensions are set to be approximately the same as the external dimensions of the upper end face 30a of the support column 30.

[0102] A through hole 50a is provided in the center of the part that is close to the anti-corrosion component 50.

[0103] The aforementioned through hole 50a is, for example, formed by a shape that is approximately the same as the cross-sectional shape of the protrusion 31 of the support column 30, and its inner dimension is set to be slightly larger than the outer dimension of the cross-sectional shape of the protrusion 31.

[0104] Furthermore, the anti-vibration member 40 is stacked on the upper surface 40b of the vibration damping member 40 with the protrusion 31 passing through the through hole 50a.

[0105] Thus, in this embodiment, the vibration damping member 40 is disposed on the upper end surface 30a of the support column 30 and the vibration damping member 50 is disposed on the upper surface 40b of the vibration damping member 40 in close contact with the vibration damping member 50.

[0106] With this structure, the glass plate bundling tray 1 according to this embodiment can prevent the rubber vibration damping member 40 from sticking to the lower surface 10b of the base 10 of the upper glass plate bundling tray 1 when stacked longitudinally, by using the contact prevention member 50.

[0107] Therefore, according to the glass plate bundling pallet 1 in this embodiment, it is possible to prevent the glass plate bundling pallet 1 located at the upper level from sticking together with the glass plate bundling pallet 1 located at the lower level via the vibration damping member 40, and to suppress the deterioration of the workability of the unloading operation when unloading the stacked glass plate bundling pallet 1 from the transport container, thereby improving the unbundling operation of the glass plate bundling pallet 1.

[0108] In addition, in this embodiment, the structure is as follows: the support column 30 has a protrusion 31 that protrudes upward from the center of the upper end face 30a, and the base (base part) 10 has fitting parts 12 provided at the four corners of the lower surface 10b and capable of fitting with the protrusion 31. The vibration damping member 40 and the tight-fitting prevention member 50 respectively have through holes 40a and 50a through which the protrusion 31 can pass.

[0109] With this structure, the glass plate bundling tray 1 according to this embodiment can be stacked longitudinally in a more stable state by engaging the protrusion 31 of the lower-level glass plate bundling tray 1 with the engaging portion 12 of the upper-level glass plate bundling tray 1.

[0110] Furthermore, through holes 40a and 50a are provided in the vibration damping member 40 and the close-fitting prevention member 50, respectively, which allow the protrusion 31 to pass through. Therefore, the vibration damping member 40 and the close-fitting prevention member 50 can be reliably arranged between the lower surface 10b of the base (base part) 10 of the upper glass plate bundling tray 1 and the upper end surface 30a of the support column 30 of the lower glass plate bundling tray 1 through the through holes 40a and 50a to avoid interference with the protrusion 31.

[0111] In addition, in this embodiment, a metal support plate 60 is provided between the vibration damping member 40 and the anti-vibration member 50.

[0112] The support plate 60 is formed with a shape and external dimensions that are at least substantially the same as those of the vibration damping member 40, and a through hole 60a is provided in its central part.

[0113] In addition, the aforementioned through hole 60a is formed, for example, by a shape that is approximately the same as the cross-sectional shape of the protrusion 31 of the support 30, and its inner dimension is set to be slightly larger than the outer dimension of the cross-sectional shape of the protrusion 31.

[0114] Furthermore, the support plate 60 is clamped between the vibration damping member 40 and the tight-fitting prevention member 50 with the protrusion 31 passing through the through hole 60a.

[0115] In addition, the vibration damping members 40, the support plate 60, and the anti-adhesion members 50 arranged sequentially on the upper end face 30a of the support column 30 are all fixed to the upper end face 30a of the support column 30 by a plurality of fastening members 70 arranged in a through state.

[0116] Thus, in this embodiment, a metal support plate 60 is also provided, which is sandwiched between the vibration damping member 40 and the anti-vibration member 50. The support plate 60 is formed to be approximately the same shape as the vibration damping member 40 when viewed from above.

[0117] Furthermore, the vibration damping members 40, the anti-vibration members 50, and the support plate 60, which are arranged in a stacked state, are all fixed to the upper end surface 30a of the support column 30 by the through fastening members 70.

[0118] With this structure, the glass plate bundling tray 1 according to this embodiment can use the metal support plate 60 to suppress, for example, the local elastic deformation of the rubber vibration damping member 40 under the action of the fastening force of the fastening member 70 when the fastening member 70 is screwed onto the upper end face 30a of the support column 30, and can stably fix the vibration damping member 40 and the anti-vibration member 50 to the upper end face 30a of the support column 30.

[0119] Using a glass plate bundling tray 1 with the structure described above, a glass plate stack G consisting of multiple stacked glass plates Ga is placed on the upper surface 20a of the stage 20 and bundled, thereby constructing a glass plate bundling body Ma (see reference). Figure 1 ).

[0120] After constructing the glass plate bundle Ma, as follows Figure 1 As shown, the glass plates are stacked sequentially along the longitudinal direction. This, in turn, constructs the glass plate conveyor body M.

[0121] In the constructed glass plate conveyor M, a rubber vibration damping member 40 is provided between the support column 30 of the lower-level glass plate bundling tray 1 and the base (base part) 10 of the upper-level glass plate bundling tray 1 to reduce the transmission of vertical vibration (see reference). Figure 2 ) state.

[0122] In addition, a contact prevention member 50 is provided between the vibration damping member 40 and the base (base part) 10 of the glass plate bundling tray 1 located above, to prevent the vibration damping member 40 from sticking to the glass plate bundling tray 1.

[0123] Furthermore, the glass plate bundle Ma is housed in the transport container as a glass plate transporter M and transported to the designated transport destination.

[0124] [Structure of the glass plate bundling tray 101 (first other embodiment)]

[0125] Next, use Figure 1 as well as Figure 3 The structure of the glass plate bundling tray 101 in the first other embodiment will be described.

[0126] The glass plate bundling tray 101 in the first other embodiment has a structure that is substantially the same as that of the glass plate bundling tray 1 in this embodiment, but differs from that of the glass plate bundling tray 1 in terms of the location where the vibration damping member 140 is provided and the location where it is in close contact with the anti-vibration member 150.

[0127] Therefore, in the following description, we will mainly describe the differences from the glass plate bundling tray 1 in this embodiment, and omit descriptions of structures that are equivalent to the glass plate bundling tray 1.

[0128] exist Figure 1 In the case of glass plate bundling tray 101, there are mainly a base 110, a platform 120 and a support column 130 disposed on the upper surface 110a of the base 110.

[0129] In addition, the glass plate bundling tray 101 has a vibration damping member 140 and a tight-fitting prevention member 150 (see reference). Figure 3 ).

[0130] It should be noted that the base 110 is an example of the base portion of this utility model.

[0131] In addition, the mounting platform 120 is an example of the support portion of this utility model.

[0132] Furthermore, the base 110, the platform 120, and the support column 130 are constructed with structures that are substantially the same as those of the base 10, platform 20, and support column 30 in the aforementioned embodiment, so the description is omitted.

[0133] exist Figure 3 In this embodiment, the vibration damping member 140 is similar to the vibration damping member 40 described above, and is made of a rubber plate-shaped member, with its external dimensions set to be approximately the same as the external dimensions of the upper end face 130a of the support column 130.

[0134] A through hole 140a is provided in the central part of the vibration damping component 140.

[0135] The aforementioned through hole 140a is, for example, formed by a shape that is approximately the same as the cross-sectional shape of the protrusion 131 of the support 130, and its inner dimension is set to be slightly larger than the outer dimension of the cross-sectional shape of the protrusion 131.

[0136] Furthermore, the vibration damping member 140 is positioned at the four corners of the lower surface 110b of the base 110 such that the through hole 140a is coaxial with the hole portion 112a of the fitting portion 112.

[0137] The anti-adhesion member 150 is also the same as the anti-adhesion member 50 in the aforementioned embodiment. For example, it is a plate-shaped member made of resin such as polypropylene (PP) or polyethylene (PE), and its external dimensions are set to be approximately the same as the external dimensions of the upper end face 130a of the support column 130.

[0138] A through hole 150a is provided in the center of the part that is close to the anti-corrosion member 150.

[0139] The aforementioned through hole 150a is, for example, formed by a shape that is approximately the same as the cross-sectional shape of the protrusion 131 of the support 130, and its inner dimension is set to be slightly larger than the outer dimension of the cross-sectional shape of the protrusion 131.

[0140] Furthermore, the anti-vibration member 150 is disposed on the lower surface of the vibration damping member 140 in such a state that the through hole 150a is coaxial with the hole portion 112a of the fitting portion 112.

[0141] Thus, in this other embodiment, the vibration damping member 140 is provided at the four corners of the lower surface 110b of the base (base portion) 110, and the anti-vibration member 150 is disposed close to the lower surface of the vibration damping member 140. The vibration damping member 140 and the anti-vibration member 150 are disposed such that each through hole 140a, 150a is coaxial with respect to the hole portion 112a of the fitting portion 112.

[0142] With this structure, the glass plate bundling tray 101 according to this other embodiment can prevent the rubber vibration damping member 140 from being in close contact with the upper end face 130a of the support 130 of the lower glass plate bundling tray 101 when stacked in the longitudinal direction by using the contact prevention member 150.

[0143] Therefore, according to the glass plate bundling pallet 101 in this other embodiment, it is possible to prevent the upper glass plate bundling pallet 101 from sticking to the lower glass plate bundling pallet 101 via the vibration damping member 140, and to suppress the deterioration of the workability of the unloading operation when unloading the stacked glass plate bundling pallets 101 from the transport container, thereby improving the unbundling operation of the glass plate bundling pallet 101.

[0144] In addition, the vibration damping members 140 and the close-fitting anti-vibration members 150 arranged sequentially at the four corners of the lower surface 110b of the base 110 are respectively fixed to the four corners of the lower surface 110b by a plurality of fastening members 170 arranged in a through state.

[0145] Here, the glass plate bundling tray 101 in this other embodiment may also be the same as the glass plate bundling tray 1 in the aforementioned other embodiment, and may also have a metal support plate (not shown) sandwiched between the vibration damping member 140 and the close-fitting prevention member 150 for the purpose of suppressing the local elastic deformation of the rubber vibration damping member 140.

[0146] The glass plate conveyor M (refer to) is obtained based on the glass plate bundling tray 101 constructed with the structure described above. Figure 1 In this case, a rubber vibration damping member 140 is provided between the support 130 of the lower glass plate bundling tray 101 and the base (base part) 110 of the upper glass plate bundling tray 101 to reduce the transmission of vibration in the vertical direction.

[0147] In addition, a contact prevention member 150 is provided between the vibration damping member 140 and the support column 130 of the lower glass plate bundling tray 101 to prevent the vibration damping member 140 from sticking to the glass plate bundling tray 101.

[0148] Furthermore, the glass plate bundle Ma is housed in the transport container as a glass plate transporter M and transported to the designated transport destination.

[0149] [Structure of the glass plate bundling tray 201 (second alternative embodiment)]

[0150] Next, use Figure 1 as well as Figure 4 The structure of the glass plate bundling tray 201 in the second embodiment will be described.

[0151] The glass plate bundling tray 201 in the second other embodiment has a structure that is substantially the same as that of the glass plate bundling tray 1 in the present embodiment. However, it differs from the glass plate bundling tray 1 in that the vibration damping member 240 and the tight-fitting prevention member 250 are separated from the glass plate bundling tray 201.

[0152] Therefore, in the following description, we will mainly describe the differences from the glass plate bundling tray 1 in this embodiment, and omit descriptions of structures that are equivalent to the glass plate bundling tray 1.

[0153] exist Figure 1 In the case of glass plate bundling tray 201, there is a base 210, a platform 220 and a support 230 disposed on the upper surface 210a of the base 210.

[0154] In addition, the glass plate bundling tray 201 has a vibration damping member 240 and a tight-fitting prevention member 250 (see reference). Figure 4 ).

[0155] It should be noted that the base 210 is an example of the base portion of this utility model.

[0156] In addition, the mounting platform 220 is an example of the support portion of this utility model.

[0157] Furthermore, the base 210, the platform 220, and the support column 230 are constructed with structures that are substantially the same as those of the base 10, platform 20, and support column 30 in the aforementioned embodiment, so the description is omitted.

[0158] exist Figure 4 In this embodiment, the vibration damping member 240 is similar to the vibration damping member 40 described above, and is made of a rubber plate-shaped member, with its external dimensions set to be approximately the same as the external dimensions of the upper end face 230a of the support column 230.

[0159] A through hole 240a is provided in the central part of the vibration damping component 240.

[0160] The aforementioned through hole 240a is, for example, formed by a shape that is approximately the same as the cross-sectional shape of the protrusion 231 of the support 230, and its inner dimension is set to be slightly larger than the outer dimension of the cross-sectional shape of the protrusion 231.

[0161] Furthermore, the vibration damping component 240 is separated from the glass plate bundling tray 201 and is assembled onto the upper end face 230a of the support column 230 by having the protrusion 231 pass through the through hole 240a.

[0162] The anti-adhesion member 250 is also the same as the anti-adhesion member 50 in the aforementioned embodiment. For example, it is a plate-shaped member made of resin such as polypropylene (PP) or polyethylene (PE), and its external dimensions are set to be approximately the same as the external dimensions of the upper end surface 230a of the support column 230.

[0163] A through hole 250a is provided in the center of the part that is close to the anti-corrosion member 250.

[0164] The aforementioned through hole 250a is, for example, formed by a shape that is approximately the same as the cross-sectional shape of the protrusion 231 of the support 230, and its inner dimension is set to be slightly larger than the outer dimension of the cross-sectional shape of the protrusion 231.

[0165] Furthermore, it is tightly attached to prevent the component 250 from separating from the glass plate bundling tray 201, and is assembled to the upper end face 230a of the support 230 by having the protrusion 231 pass through the through hole 250a.

[0166] Thus, in other embodiments, both the vibration damping member 240 and the tight-fitting prevention member 250 are constructed from structures separate from the glass plate bundling tray 201.

[0167] With this structure, the glass plate bundling tray 201 according to this other embodiment can be easily replaced with new vibration damping members 240 and tight-fitting prevention members 250 even if the rubber vibration damping members 240 and tight-fitting prevention members 250 deteriorate over the years due to long-term use, for example.

[0168] It should be noted that in other embodiments, the two components are assembled on the upper end surface 230a of the support column 230 in the order of the anti-vibration component 250 and the vibration damping component 240, but it is not limited to this. It is also possible to assemble the two components on the upper end surface 230a of the support column 230 in the order of the vibration damping component 240 and the anti-vibration component 250.

[0169] In other embodiments, the structure consists of the vibration damping member 240 and the close-fitting prevention member 250, but it is not limited to this. The two members can also be close to each other in a pre-stacked state.

[0170] Furthermore, two anti-vibration members 240 can be provided in such a way that the anti-vibration member 240 is sandwiched in the middle.

[0171] As described above, the glass plate bundling tray 1 in this embodiment has the following structure: it includes: a platform (support part) 20, which supports a glass plate stack G composed of multiple stacked glass plates Ga from below; a base (base part) 10 with a rectangular shape when viewed from above, which is disposed on the lower surface of the platform 20; and support columns 30, which are respectively erected at the four corners of the upper surface 10a of the base 10. The glass plate bundling tray also includes: rubber vibration damping members 40, which are disposed on the upper end surface 30a of each support column 30; and a close-fitting anti-vibration member 50, which is stacked on the vibration damping member 40.

[0172] In addition, the glass plate bundling tray 101 in the first other embodiment has the following structure: it includes: a platform (support part) 120, which supports a glass plate stack G composed of multiple stacked glass plates Ga from below; a base (base part) 110 with a rectangular shape when viewed from above, which is disposed on the lower surface of the platform 120; and support columns 130, which are respectively erected at the four corners of the upper surface 110a of the base 110. The glass plate bundling tray also includes: rubber vibration damping members 140, which are disposed at the four corners of the lower surface 110b of the base 110; and a tight-fitting anti-vibration member 150, which is stacked on the vibration damping member 140.

[0173] Thus, in the glass plate bundling tray 1 of this embodiment and the glass plate bundling tray 101 of the first other embodiment, there are anti-adhesion members 50 and 150 stacked on the rubber anti-vibration members 40 and 140. Therefore, even when they are stacked longitudinally, since the anti-adhesion members 50 and 150 are sandwiched between the lower surfaces 10b and 110b of the base (base portion) 10 and 110 of the upper-level glass plate bundling tray 1 and 101 and the anti-vibration members 40 and 140, and between the upper end surfaces 30a and 130a of the supports 30 and 130 of the lower-level glass plate bundling tray 1 and 101 and the anti-vibration members 40 and 140, it is possible to prevent the anti-vibration members 40 and 140 from adhering tightly to the glass plate bundling tray 1 and 101 located at the upper and lower levels, respectively.

[0174] Therefore, according to the glass plate bundling pallet 1 in this embodiment and the first other embodiment, it is possible to prevent the upper glass plate bundling pallets 1, 101 and the lower glass plate bundling pallets 1, 101 from sticking together via the vibration damping members 40, 140. This can suppress the deterioration of the workability of the unloading operation when unloading the stacked glass plate bundling pallets 1, 101 from the transport container, and improve the unbundling operation of the glass plate bundling pallets 1, 101.

[0175] In addition, the glass plate conveying body M in this embodiment is formed by stacking glass plate bundles Ma in the longitudinal direction. The glass plate bundles Ma are formed by placing the glass plate bundles G on a glass plate stack G consisting of a glass plate stack G composed of multiple stacked glass plates Ga, which is supported from below by a platform (support part) 20, a base (base part) 10 with a top rectangular shape provided on the lower surface of the platform 20, and support columns 30 provided at the four corners of the upper surface 10a of the base 10.

[0176] Here, the glass plate conveyor M has the following structure: a rubber vibration damping member 40 is provided between the support column 30 of the lower glass plate bundling tray 1 and the base 10 of the upper glass plate bundling tray 1 to reduce the transmission of vibration in the vertical direction; and a contact prevention member 50 is provided between the vibration damping member 40 and the base 10 of the upper glass plate bundling tray 1 to prevent the vibration damping member 40 from sticking tightly to the glass plate bundling tray 1.

[0177] In addition, the glass plate conveyor M in the first other embodiment is a glass plate conveyor M formed by stacking glass plate bundles Ma in the longitudinal direction. The glass plate bundles Ma are formed by placing the glass plate bundles G on a glass plate stack G consisting of a glass plate stack G composed of multiple stacked glass plates Ga from below, a base (base part) 110 with a top rectangular shape provided on the lower surface of the base 120, and support columns 130 provided at the four corners of the upper surface 110a of the base 110.

[0178] Here, the glass plate conveyor M has the following structure: a rubber vibration damping member 140 is provided between the support column 130 of the lower-level glass plate bundling tray 101 and the base 110 of the upper-level glass plate bundling tray 101 to reduce the transmission of vibration in the vertical direction; and a tight-fitting anti-adhesion member 150 is provided between the vibration damping member 140 and the support column 130 of the lower-level glass plate bundling tray 101 to prevent the vibration damping member 140 from sticking tightly to the glass plate bundling tray 101.

[0179] Furthermore, in the second embodiment, the glass plate conveyor M is formed by stacking glass plate bundles Ma in the longitudinal direction. The glass plate bundles Ma are formed by placing the glass plate bundles G on a glass plate stack G consisting of a support platform (support portion) 220 that supports a glass plate stack G composed of multiple stacked glass plates Ga from below, a base (base portion) 210 with a top rectangular shape provided on the lower surface of the support platform 220, and support columns 230 provided at the four corners of the upper surface 210a of the base 210.

[0180] Here, the glass plate conveyor M is structured such that a rubber vibration damping member 240 is provided between the support column 230 of the lower-level glass plate bundling tray 201 and the base 210 of the upper-level glass plate bundling tray 201 to reduce the transmission of vibration in the vertical direction, and a contact prevention member 250 is provided between at least one of the vibration damping member 240 and the support column 230 of the lower-level glass plate bundling tray 201 and between the vibration damping member 240 and the base 210 of the upper-level glass plate bundling tray 201 to prevent the vibration damping member 240 from sticking tightly to the glass plate bundling tray 201.

[0181] With this structure, according to the above-described embodiment, the first other embodiment, and the second other embodiment, even when the glass plate bundling trays 1, 101, and 201 are stacked longitudinally, since at least one of the vibration damping members 40, 140, and 240 and the supports 30, 130, and 230 of the lower-level glass plate bundling trays 1, 101, and 201, and the vibration damping members 40, 140, and 240 and the bases (base portions) 10, 110, and 210 of the upper-level glass plate bundling trays is provided with anti-adhesion members 50, 150, and 250, it is possible to prevent the vibration damping members 40, 140, and 240 from adhering to the glass plate bundling trays 1, 101, and 201 located at the upper and lower levels, respectively.

[0182] Therefore, according to the glass plate conveying body M in the above-described embodiment, the first other embodiment, and the second other embodiment, it is possible to prevent the glass plate bundling pallets 1, 101, and 201 located at the upper level from sticking together with the glass plate bundling pallets 1, 101, and 201 located at the lower level via the vibration damping members 40, 140, and 240. It is possible to suppress the deterioration of the workability of the unloading operation when unloading the stacked glass plate bundling pallets 1, 101, and 201 from the conveying container, and to improve the workability of the unbundling operation of the glass plate bundling pallets 1, 101, and 201.

[0183] The above describes one embodiment of the present utility model, but the present utility model is not limited to this embodiment in any way and is merely an example. Of course, it can be implemented in various ways without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
