PACKAGING DEVICE FOR A TWO-WHEELER AND PACKAGING SYSTEM WITH A PACKAGING DEVICE

Description

[0001] The present disclosure relates to a packaging device for a two-wheeler, in particular for a motorcycle.

[0002] The present invention relates to a packaging system for a two-wheeler, in particular for a motorcycle, with a packaging device.

[0003] Packaging devices can be used, for example, to deliver brand-new two-wheelers, especially motorcycles, from the manufacturer to the dealer and / or the end customer. In addition to reliable packaging of the two-wheeler, a small pack size is advantageous to save transport costs. For this purpose, it is common practice, for example, to pack the two-wheeler partially disassembled. For example, the front wheel is removed from the two-wheeler frame, while the rear wheel remains attached to the frame. Alternatively, both wheels can remain attached to shorten setup time. The handlebars can be positioned sideways on bicycles or removed on bicycles and motorcycles. Other two-wheeler parts and / or accessories or equipment are usually shipped together with the two-wheeler.

[0004] When packing motorcycles, their considerable weight must be taken into account, which can be approximately 100 kg to 200 kg. To ensure stable support, motorcycles can be secured to trailers or similar devices using tensioning straps that engage the frame. This requires considerable effort and complicates handling. It is also undesirable for tensioning straps to engage certain motorcycle parts, such as the hydraulic cylinders of a suspension fork, as there is a risk of damage. Conventional motorcycle packaging requires the motorcycle to be lifted into the packaging container using a crane due to its heavy weight, which, in addition to the mechanical effort required, makes handling difficult.

[0005] Packaging devices for two-wheelers, especially bicycles, are described, for example, in EP 3 611 106 A1, DE 20 2018 102 422 U1, DE 20 2009 005 489 U1, and DE 20 2020 104 051 U1. A frame for accommodating several motorcycles arranged side by side is described in JP 2002-145378 A. US 2013 / 0270202 A1 discloses a mounting device for a motorcycle, which comprises supports for the front and rear wheels, each placed on a floor surface. The rear support can be pivoted, thereby raising a hub of the rear wheel via a lever effect.

[0006] DE 197 31 868 A1 describes a recyclable packaging container with support parts for motorcycle axles. The components of the packaging container are made of impact-resistant plastic, sheet metal with appropriate stiffeners, aluminum walls, or similar materials.

[0007] US 2,629,487 A1 discloses a packaging container for a bicycle with fixing parts made of paper material that are placed over the wheels and held in a form-fitting manner between opposing side walls of the packaging container. Additionally, the frame is supported downwards in the area of ​​the bottom bracket.

[0008] Fixing parts for a respective lateral fixation of the frame are provided for packaging containers for motorcycles which are described in the generic JP 2009-227285 A or in JP 2003-040385 A.

[0009] ES 2 351 814 A1 describes a packaging container for a bicycle, in which axle stubs on the front wheel axle can be inserted into a receiving slot of a support body standing on the bottom of the packaging container.

[0010] The object of the present invention is to provide a packaging system that enables reliable packaging of the two-wheeler with easier handling.

[0011] This object is achieved by a packaging system according to the invention having the features of claim 1.

[0012] The packaging device comprises two support members arranged on the ground and spaced apart from one another in the transverse direction. The wheel, which is preferably a rear wheel of the bicycle, can be positioned between the support members. The support body can rest on the respective support element of the support member. A contact force of the support body can be diverted to the ground via the support member. By positioning the support members laterally next to the wheel, in addition to the downward support, the wheel and thus the bicycle can be transversely stabilized.

[0013] The support body can be designed, for example, as a rod or tube. Particularly in motorcycles, the rod or tube can be passed through a hollow axle of the rear wheel, allowing it to be arranged in a simple, predefined position on the wheel. This allows for reliable support while allowing easy handling of the packaging device and the support body.

[0014] Position and orientation specifications such as "top," "bottom," "above," or "below," or the like, refer to the intended use of the packaging device. In this case, the packaging device rests, in particular, on a support surface above the floor. The support parts are accordingly arranged on top of the floor and rest on it.

[0015] The packaging device is intended in particular for transport purposes. Specifically for transport, the packaging device can comprise or form a packaging container. The packaging container can comprise a base, a casing projecting therefrom, and preferably a lid at least partially covering the casing. This will be discussed further below.

[0016] A distance of the respective support element from the floor, in particular a floor wall, is for example approximately 20 cm to 50 cm, preferably approximately 25 cm to 45 cm, more preferably approximately 30 cm to 40 cm.

[0017] Ideally, the support elements are dimensioned so that, on the one hand, the support body can be supported by the support elements, and, on the other hand, the wheel can rest on the ground in the space between the support elements. This allows the weight of the bicycle to be transferred indirectly via the support elements and directly to the ground.

[0018] It is further claimed that the support parts comprise or form a flat support element and rest flatly on the floor via this, in particular on a floor wall. The force can be reliably transferred to the floor via the flat support element. At the same time, the pressure on the floor can be limited due to the flat design of the support element.

[0019] It is advantageous if the support elements are fixed or can be fixed to the ground. This prevents movement of the support elements relative to the ground and ensures more reliable support of the bicycle.

[0020] It is advantageous if the support part comprises or forms at least one tab or connecting section through which the support part can be stapled to the floor. The support part can be stapled to the floor through the tab or connecting section and thus easily connected to the floor. For example, the aforementioned support element forms the tab or connecting section.

[0021] Alternatively or in addition to stapling, a connection by gluing and / or by form-fitting with the floor can be provided.

[0022] Preferably, the support parts are formed separately from the floor and are freely positioned or positionable on the floor. This provides the packaging device with a high degree of versatility. The positionability of the support parts allows, for example, the packaging device to be adapted to two-wheelers of different dimensions, particularly even directly during packaging. Depending on the dimensions of the two-wheeler, the support parts can preferably be fixed to a suitable position on the floor.

[0023] In a preferred embodiment of the packaging device, it can be provided, in particular, that several pairs of support parts are provided that are functionally identical but differ in size. For example, the support parts differ only in their height and thus the distance of the respective support element from the ground. Depending on the bicycle to be packaged, the pair of support parts with the appropriate dimensions can be selected and, for example, fixed to the ground.

[0024] It is advantageous if the support elements comprise a recess for receiving the support body, which engages with the recess when the bicycle is in a supporting position. The engagement between the support body and the recess ensures a defined relative position of the bicycle to the support part. This enables reliable fixation of the bicycle. For example, it can be provided that the bicycle is pushed onto the ground until the support body engages with the recesses, thereby allowing the bicycle to assume the desired, defined position on the packaging device.

[0025] In this context, "pushing in" and / or "sliding on" is understood to mean, in particular, "rolling," whereby the bicycle is rolled along the ground with rotating wheels. "Pushing into the packaging device" can, in particular, mean "sliding on the ground."

[0026] For example, the support elements are arranged and aligned parallel to the ground.

[0027] It can be provided that the support body can sink into the material of the support part at the recess when it engages with the recess. For example, it can be provided that the support part is deformable at least in the region of the recess in order to improve the engagement between the support body and the recess.

[0028] The recess is, for example, a trough extending in the transverse direction. It can be provided that the depth of the recess in the vertical direction is smaller than the diameter of a support body configured as a rod or tube. In this way, the support body does not fully penetrate the recess, but can protrude vertically, in particular beyond an upper edge of the recess. This makes it easier, for example, to remove the bicycle from the packaging device after transport by removing the engagement between the support body and the recess.

[0029] According to the invention, the support parts comprise a ramp element that rises in the vertical direction, against which the support body can rest and be guided in the longitudinal direction towards the support element. The support body can rest on the ramp element and, in particular, can be guided to a greater distance from the ground when the two-wheeler is pushed into the packaging device until a desired distance from the ground is achieved. The desired distance is defined in particular by the support element, on which the aforementioned recess is advantageously provided. The provision of the ramp element makes it easier for the user to transfer the support body into the desired position on the support element and thereby ensure the defined position of the two-wheeler on the support parts. The two-wheeler can preferably be pushed into the packaging device in an insertion direction that is oriented in the longitudinal direction.During insertion, the support body can contact the ramp element. As it is further inserted, the support body is guided along the ramp element.

[0030] An initial section of the ramp element facing away from the support element, relative to the insertion direction, is preferably arranged at a distance from the floor. In particular, the ramp element does not extend all the way to the floor.

[0031] The ramp element preferably defines an incline for guiding the support body. The ramp element is advantageously rectilinear. An angle between a plane defined by the ground and the direction of travel of the ramp element is, for example, approximately 20° to 70°, preferably approximately 30° to 60°.

[0032] The support parts advantageously comprise a stop element for the support body that acts in the longitudinal direction. When the bicycle is pushed in, the support body can strike the stop element. The bicycle is thus secured against longitudinal movement during pushing in and / or transport. Advantageously, the stop element is arranged in the aforementioned recess. The stop element can preferably be arranged on the side of the support element facing away from the aforementioned ramp element.

[0033] It is further claimed that the support parts comprise a plurality of flat material layers positioned laterally next to one another in the transverse direction and overlapping one another. It has been shown that by providing a plurality of material layers, both structurally simple production and reliable function of the support parts can be ensured. In this case, two or more adjacent material layers lie flat against one another. The support parts are extended, for example, in the vertical direction and in the longitudinal direction and lie flat against one another in the transverse direction, at least partially (for example, corresponding to a rotated stack of material layers). Advantageously, two or more material layers are connected to one another.

[0034] In a preferred embodiment, a respective material layer can be multi-layered, for example when the support parts are manufactured from a paper material such as corrugated cardboard.

[0035] It is advantageous if the support parts are made of a paper material, especially corrugated cardboard. Using paper, and especially corrugated cardboard, allows the weight of the packaging device to be kept low. In addition to reducing manufacturing costs, this also allows for lower transport costs due to the reduced weight of the packaging device.

[0036] Advantageously, the support parts can be erected into a position of use starting from a flat cut of the paper material.

[0037] As already mentioned, a particular material layer can itself be multi-layered. For example, when using corrugated board, a particular material layer must be made of at least two layers of corrugated board, and preferably three layers of corrugated board.

[0038] The crests of the corrugated cardboard material layers preferably run in the vertical direction. The "propagation direction" of the corrugated cardboard material preferably runs in the longitudinal direction.

[0039] The stiffness of the material layers is advantageously greater in the vertical direction than in the longitudinal direction and / or in the transverse direction.

[0040] The supporting parts are preferably inherently stable and self-supporting.

[0041] It is advantageous if the support parts comprise at least one stiffening element, which extends, for example, in the vertical direction and in the transverse direction and via which two material layers arranged at a distance from one another or aligned at an angle to one another are connected to one another. In this way, an inherently stable and self-standing support part can be formed in a structurally simple manner, in particular from a paper material. For example, two material layers can be provided which are aligned at an angle to one another and do not intersect, and which are connected via the at least one stiffening element. Alternatively, material layers aligned parallel to one another can be connected via the at least one stiffening element.

[0042] For example, the stiffening element is connected to one of the material layers via tabs to achieve a positive fit. Alternatively or additionally, the stiffening element can be held in a foldable manner, for example, on at least one of the material layers.

[0043] The support parts are advantageously designed as identical parts. This allows for cost-effective production and easy handling of the packaging device.

[0044] The packaging device preferably comprises two centering parts arranged at a distance from one another in the transverse direction and resting on the floor, between which a groove-shaped recess is arranged for receiving a wheel of the bicycle, in particular the front wheel. When the bicycle is inserted, the mounted front wheel can be guided into the groove-shaped recess. Upon further movement, the front wheel can be guided in the recess, preferably between the centering parts. This makes handling of the packaging device easier for the user.

[0045] The centering parts are preferably made of a paper material, in particular corrugated cardboard.

[0046] Advantageously, each centering part can be erected into a position of use starting from a flat cut of the paper material.

[0047] For example, the centering parts are wedge-shaped (e.g., substantially triangular) when viewed in the longitudinal direction, with an upper portion of the groove-shaped recess sloping downwards in the transverse direction toward the edge of the base. Alternatively, a rectangular cross-section, viewed in the longitudinal direction, may be provided.

[0048] It is advantageous if the packaging device comprises at least one blocking part for engaging a wheel of the bicycle and for securing the bicycle against movement in the longitudinal direction. The at least one blocking part can ensure a defined target position of the bicycle in the packaging device.

[0049] Conveniently, two locking elements are provided that are attached or can be attached to the front and rear wheels of the bicycle. This allows the bicycle to be secured at both wheels against longitudinal movement.

[0050] The at least one blocking part can preferably be fixed in a desired position on the floor by means of a casing or casing part of the packaging device. For example, the casing or casing part rests on a holding element and / or on an edge of the blocking part.

[0051] The at least one blocking part is preferably made of a paper material, in particular of corrugated cardboard.

[0052] Advantageously, the blocking part can be erected into a position of use starting from a flat cut of the paper material.

[0053] The at least one blocking part is advantageously configured to extend transversely between side walls of the packaging device. The at least one blocking part can, for example, be arranged in a form-fitting manner between the side walls. Alternatively or additionally, the at least one blocking part can, for example, be arranged in a form-fitting manner between portions of an edge of the base that protrudes from a base wall.

[0054] Viewed in the transverse direction, the at least one blocking part is preferably wedge-shaped. The at least one blocking part can, in particular, form a wheel chock that engages under the wheel at a tread and thereby secures the wheel against movement in the longitudinal direction.

[0055] Preferably, two blocking parts are provided, which are preferably arranged at opposite end portions of the packaging device. For example, the blocking parts are each arranged adjacent to or adjacent to opposite side walls of the packaging device, wherein the blocking parts block the wheels in opposite orientations in the longitudinal direction. The side walls are, for example, transverse side walls of the packaging device.

[0056] For example, one locking element blocks the front wheel from moving in the direction of insertion, or vice versa. The other locking element can block the rear wheel from moving in the opposite direction of insertion, or vice versa.

[0057] The two blocking parts are preferably designed as identical parts.

[0058] The packaging device can, for example, be positioned on a support surface such that a bottom wall of the base rests on the support surface. In another embodiment of the invention, the packaging device can comprise a pallet on which the bottom wall is arranged.

[0059] Particularly in the last-mentioned embodiment, it may be advantageous if the packaging device comprises a ramp part, which is preferably designed to be placed laterally against the ground in the longitudinal direction and to extend in the transverse direction, and comprises a ramp element over which the two-wheeler can be pushed from a support surface for the packaging device onto the ground. The two-wheeler, in particular a motorcycle with considerable weight, can be rolled onto the ground in a handling-friendly manner via the ramp part. For this purpose, the two-wheeler is guided over the ramp element.

[0060] The ramp element is preferably made of a paper material, in particular corrugated cardboard.

[0061] Advantageously, the ramp element can be erected into a position of use starting from a flat cut of the paper material.

[0062] The ramp part can be wedge-shaped, particularly when viewed in the transverse direction.

[0063] With respect to the transverse direction, the ramp section can preferably include a stiffener in a central area below the ramp element, acting in the direction of the support surface. This stiffener enables a more robust design of the ramp section, particularly in the area over which the bicycle is rolled onto the ground. The weight force can be transferred to the ground via the ramp element and the stiffener.

[0064] It is advantageous if the ramp section includes a locking element that can be used as a ramp section for pushing the bicycle onto the ground. After pushing the bicycle onto the ground, it can be placed back on the ground and used as a locking element. This eliminates the need for a separate ramp section or locking element. For example, the ramp section can be used as a locking element to lock the rear wheel.

[0065] As already mentioned, the floor can include a floor wall.

[0066] As already mentioned, the floor may comprise at least one pallet, above which a floor wall of the floor is arranged in the height direction.

[0067] The packaging device advantageously comprises a casing projecting from the floor, wherein the casing comprises at least one longitudinal side wall extending in the longitudinal direction and / or at least one transverse side wall extending in the transverse direction, wherein the casing at least partially encloses a receiving space of the packaging device. The two-wheeler positioned on the floor can be laterally protected by the casing. Preferably, the casing completely surrounds the receiving space.

[0068] The base may have an edge protruding from a base wall, which covers the outer shell. This allows the shell to be easily arranged for easy handling.

[0069] In a preferred embodiment, the casing may comprise two casing parts, each comprising three side walls. For example, the casing comprises oppositely overlapping side walls of the first casing part and the second casing part. For example, the overlapping side walls are transverse side walls along the transverse direction. Accordingly, the casing may, for example, comprise two transverse side walls and two longitudinal side walls.

[0070] This makes it possible, for example, to first push the bicycle onto the ground and secure it using the support parts. The first casing section can then be positioned so that the storage area is closed on three sides and remains open on one side. Bicycle parts and / or accessories can be arranged in the storage area. The storage area can then be closed using the second casing section.

[0071] The packaging device advantageously comprises a lid that covers the casing, at least partially covering and closing the receiving space with a top wall. For example, the lid is a slip lid that includes an edge that protrudes toward the bottom and covers the casing on the outside.

[0072] The bottom wall, the casing and / or the lid are advantageously made of a paper material, in particular corrugated cardboard.

[0073] For example, these components of the packaging device can be erected into a use position starting from a flat cut of the paper material.

[0074] The base wall with edge on the one hand and the lid on the other hand can be designed as identical parts.

[0075] It is advantageous if the bicycle can be fixed in the receiving space between the side walls of the casing.

[0076] Accordingly, it is advantageous if the packaging device comprises a fixing part that comprises two support sections that are spaced apart from one another in the transverse direction and are connected to one another via a connecting section in the transverse direction, wherein a recess is formed between the support sections, which recess is delimited in the vertical direction by the connecting section and opens towards the floor. The fixing part can preferably be slipped over the two-wheeler, wherein, for example, a seat or a frame part of the two-wheeler can engage in the recess. If the two-wheeler is a motorcycle, the support part is advantageously slipped over the motorcycle seat, wherein the support sections are arranged on opposite sides of the motorcycle seat. The support sections can advantageously be supported on the casing and thereby ensure fixation of the two-wheeler in its transverse direction.

[0077] It can be advantageous if the recess is designed to widen toward the ground. In this case, this can be understood in particular as meaning that the recess tapers upwards in height. Such a design of the recess can, for example, allow for size adjustment to the bicycle, so that the same fixing part can be used for different models.

[0078] The recess can, for example, be trapezoidal in shape when viewed in the longitudinal direction.

[0079] The connecting section is advantageously aligned parallel to the ground.

[0080] The support sections preferably comprise contact elements that lie flat against opposite side walls of the casing. A first support section, for example, lies flat against a first longitudinal side wall of the casing. The second support section preferably lies flat against the opposite second longitudinal side wall of the casing.

[0081] At least one support section, preferably both support sections, advantageously comprise two longitudinally spaced-apart side walls and a bottom wall, which together define a receiving space of the support section. This allows, for example, bicycle parts and / or accessories to be placed in the receiving space and thereby secured by means of the fixing part.

[0082] The packaging device preferably comprises longitudinally extending and vertically aligned stiffening elements that rest on the base and are attached to the casing, preferably extending to a free edge of the casing facing away from the base. The stiffening elements are, for example, wooden strips that can be attached to the casing by means of connecting elements. The stiffening elements reinforce the packaging container, which is closed by the base and casing, and preferably by the lid. Preferably, it is possible to stack packaging containers on top of each other even when filled.

[0083] As already mentioned, the present invention relates to a packaging system.

[0084] A packaging system according to the invention for a two-wheeler, in particular for a motorcycle, comprises a packaging device of the type mentioned above and a support body which is arranged and held in a predetermined or predeterminable position on a wheel hub or axle of the wheel and further contains the remaining features of claim 1.

[0085] The advantages already mentioned in connection with the explanation of the packaging device can be achieved by means of the packaging system according to the invention. Reference can be made to the above explanations in this regard.

[0086] Advantageous embodiments of the packaging system result from advantageous embodiments of the packaging device.

[0087] The support body can, in particular, be a rod or tube extending through a hollow axle of the bicycle. The support body extends beyond the hollow axle far enough to rest on the support elements of the support parts.

[0088] The following description of preferred embodiments of the invention, in conjunction with the drawings, serves to explain the invention in more detail. They show: Figure 1: a perspective schematic representation of a packaging system according to the invention, comprising a packaging device; Figure 2: the packaging system from Figure 1 with a packaged two-wheeler in the form of a motorcycle; Figure 3: a partial view of the packaging device when pushing the motorcycle onto a floor; Figure 4: an enlarged perspective view of detail A according to Figure 2; Figures 5 and 6: perspective views of a support part of the packaging device; Figure 7: a material blank for the support part according to the Figures 5 and 6 ; Figures 8 and 9: perspective views of a ramp part of the packaging device; Figure 10: a material blank for the ramp part according to the Figures 8 and 9 ; Figures 11 and 12: perspective views of a fixing part of the packaging device; Figure 13: a material cut of the fixing part according to the Figures 11 and 12 ; and Figure 14: a perspective view of a centering part of the packaging device.

[0089] Figure 1 shows a schematic perspective view of a preferred embodiment of a packaging device of the packaging system according to the invention, designated by the reference number 10, hereinafter referred to simply as device 10.

[0090] The device 10 is a component of a preferred embodiment of a packaging system designated by reference numeral 12. The packaging system 12 comprises the device 10 and a support body 14. The support body 14 is configured here as a tube or rod 16.

[0091] The packaging system 12 serves to package a two-wheeler, which in this case is in particular a motorcycle 18. In particular, the motorcycle 18 is packaged for transport purposes, for example, for transport from the manufacturer to the dealer.

[0092] In the present exemplary embodiment, the motorcycle 18 is packaged partially disassembled, although the rear wheel 20 and the front wheel 22 remain mounted. Components such as a handlebar of the motorcycle 18, on the other hand, can preferably be disassembled. In addition to the motorcycle 18, accessories, for example, can be packaged and transported using the packaging device.

[0093] As initially stated, particularly with regard to the Figures 1 and 2 As explained, the device 10 comprises a packaging container 24. The packaging container 24 has a bottom 26, a jacket 28 and a lid 30. The lid 30 is only in Figure 2 shown.

[0094] In its intended use, the device 10 can stand on a support surface 32 via the base 26, wherein a contact plane defined by the base 26 coincides with the plane of the support surface 32.

[0095] In the present embodiment, the floor 26 comprises a pallet 34, for example made of wood, and a floor wall 36 arranged above the pallet 34. Preferably, the floor wall 36 is connected to the pallet 34, for example by stapling.

[0096] The base 26 further comprises an edge 38 that protrudes from the base wall 36 in a vertical direction 40 and runs along the outer circumference of the base wall 36. The base 26 thus forms a slip-on base.

[0097] The device 10, in particular the packaging container 24, has in particular a longitudinal direction 42. A transverse direction 44 is oriented transversely and in particular perpendicularly to the longitudinal direction 42. The height direction 40 is oriented transversely and in particular perpendicularly to the longitudinal direction 42 and to the transverse direction 44. The dimension of the device 10 in the longitudinal direction 42 exceeds the dimension of the transverse direction 44. The motorcycle 18 is preferably packaged and arranged in the packaging container 24 such that the longitudinal direction 42 coincides with the longitudinal direction of the motorcycle 18.

[0098] In the present case, it is advantageous that the packaging container 24 is provided. The casing 28 is provided to form the packaging container 24. For example, the casing 28 is formed from two casing parts 46. The casing parts 46 are preferably identically configured.

[0099] In particular, it can be provided that each casing part 46 comprises a longitudinal side wall 48 and two mutually opposite transverse side walls 50. Accordingly, two mutually spaced longitudinal side walls 48 can be provided in the longitudinal direction 42. On each transverse side, the casing 28 comprises two transverse side walls 50 ( Figures 1 and 2 ).

[0100] When packing the motorcycle 18, this offers the advantage that it can first be pushed onto the floor 26, as explained below, and secured there. Subsequently, the first casing part 46 and / or the blocking parts mentioned below can be placed on the floor 26 and / or can be placed around the motorcycle 18 on three sides. Accessories and / or motorcycle parts can be inserted into the receiving space 52 enclosed by the casing 28 and delimited at the bottom by the floor 26.

[0101] Subsequently, the receiving space 52 can be closed laterally by arranging the second casing part 46, with the respective transverse side walls 50 overlapping one another and preferably abutting one another. The transverse side walls 50 can be connected to one another, for example, by stitching.

[0102] The preferably present lid 30 comprises a top wall 54 and can be placed on the casing 28 to close the receiving space 52 at the top. In this case, an edge 56 protrudes from the top wall 54 toward the bottom 26. The lid 30 is thus, in particular, a slip lid that can be slipped over the casing 28. The edge 56 runs along the entire outer circumference of the top wall 54.

[0103] The casing 28, the lid 30, and the bottom wall 36 including the edge 38 are preferably made of a paper material, in particular corrugated cardboard. These components can preferably be transferred into a use position from a one-piece, flat blank (not shown).

[0104] To fix the packaging container 24 in the closed state, straps may be provided (not shown), preferably around the bottom 26 and around the lid 30 and / or horizontally around the jacket 28.

[0105] The packaging container 24 is further preferably reinforced by providing stiffening elements 58. The stiffening elements 58, for example wooden strips, stand on the bottom wall 36 and are fixed to the casing 28 by means of connecting elements 60. The stiffening elements 58 extend essentially to the free edge of the casing 28, which faces away from the bottom 26. On the top side, stiffening elements 58 opposite one another in the transverse direction 44 can be connected to one another via a further stiffening element 58, which runs in particular parallel to the bottom wall 36.

[0106] The provision of the stiffening elements 58 preferably allows devices 10 to be stacked on top of one another even when filled.

[0107] The following is a summary of the Figures 3 to 10The sliding of the motorcycle 18 onto the floor 26 and the supporting of the motorcycle 18 on the floor 26 are discussed. In this case, the casing 28 is not yet arranged on the floor 26 and the cover 26 is not yet arranged on the casing 28. Sliding the motorcycle 18 onto the floor 26 can be viewed in particular as "sliding" into the still-open device 10. Sliding is carried out in particular by rolling the motorcycle onto the floor 26 with the wheels 20, 22 mounted.

[0108] Since in the present embodiment, the floor 26 encompasses the pallet 34, the floor wall 36 is arranged above the support surface 32 and at a distance therefrom. To facilitate the handling of the device 10 by a user, the device 10 comprises a ramp part 62 ( Figures 3 and 8 to 10).

[0109] The ramp part 62 can be placed in the longitudinal direction 42 against the floor 26, specifically on the side from which the motorcycle 18 is inserted in an insertion direction 64. The insertion direction 64 runs in the longitudinal direction 42 ( Figure 3 ).

[0110] The ramp part 62 comprises a ramp element 66 rising from the support surface 32 to the bottom wall 36 in order to overcome the height offset.

[0111] Advantageously, the ramp part 66 is designed to extend in the transverse direction 44. The extension of the ramp part 62 can preferably correspond to the clear width of the receiving space 52 between the longitudinal side walls 48.

[0112] The ramp part 62 is wedge-shaped when viewed in the transverse direction 44. In addition to the ramp element 66, the ramp part 62 preferably comprises a support element 68 for resting on the support surface 32 and a support element 70, which is preferably designed in multiple layers.

[0113] The ramp part 62 is preferably made of a paper material, in particular corrugated cardboard. Figure 10 shows a one-piece flat blank 72 for the ramp part 62.

[0114] Fold lines 74, which in the present case run parallel to one another, connect the ramp element 66 to the support element 68, the ramp element 66 to a segment 75 of the support element 70, further segments 75 of the support element 70 to one another and a segment 75 to the support element 68. The ramp part 62 can be folded into itself and fixed in a use position via a tab 76 which engages in a recess 77.

[0115] A stiffener 78 is arranged below the ramp element 66. The stiffener 78 is arranged in the transverse direction 48 in the central region of the ramp part 62 and thus particularly where the greatest force acts on the ramp part 62 when the motorcycle 18 is pushed onto it.

[0116] To form the stiffener 78, support members 80 can be folded out from the plane of the blank 72 on the support element 68 around fold lines 81. The support members 80 are also wedge-shaped and can rest against the ramp element 66 at the bottom. This transfers the weight force from the ramp element 66 to the support element 68 via the support members 80.

[0117] Edges 83 on the support element 68 project laterally beyond the ramp element 66 and the support element 70 in the transverse direction 44.

[0118] When the ramp part 62 is in use, the support element 70 rests laterally against the floor 26. For example, retaining members 82 are arranged, for example, on the support element 68 in the form of tabs 76 below the pallet 34, whereby the ramp part 62 is immovably fixed to the floor 26. The motorcycle 18 is rolled over the ramp element 66 onto the floor wall 36.

[0119] In the cut 72 according to Figure 10as well as in the further cuts according to the Figures 7 and 13 Solid lines are dividing lines of the underlying material, especially punch lines. Dashed lines are folding lines.

[0120] It is advantageous in the device 10 that the ramp part 62 forms a blocking part 84. The ramp part 62 can be used as a blocking part 84 when the motorcycle 18 is in the desired position on the ground 26 ( Figures 1 and 2 ). The blocking part 84 can be applied to a wheel, preferably the rear wheel 20, such that the motorcycle 18 is secured against movement in the longitudinal direction 42.

[0121] The blocking part 84 borders the transverse side walls 50 and is arranged in a form-fitting manner in the transverse direction 44 between the opposing sections of the edge 38. The blocking part 84 acts counter to the insertion direction 64 on the rear wheel 20. The blocking part 84 forms, in particular, a wheel chock for the rear wheel 20.

[0122] The device 10 comprises a further blocking part 86. The blocking part 86 is advantageously designed identically to the blocking part 84 and serves to block the front wheel 22 against movement in the longitudinal direction 42. In this case, the blocking part 86 is effective against a movement in the insertion direction 64.

[0123] The blocking part 86 is positioned adjacent to the side opposite the insertion side, adjacent to the transverse side walls 50, and is arranged in a form-fitting manner in the transverse direction 44 between the opposing portions of the edge 38. The blocking part 86 forms a wheel chock for the front wheel 22.

[0124] When the packaging container 24 is closed, the blocking parts 84, 86 are fixed by means of the jacket 28. The jacket parts 46 rest with the transverse side walls 50 on the holding members 82 ( Figures 1 and 2 ). In addition, the longitudinal side walls 48 rest on the edges 83.

[0125] The device 10 comprises two centering parts 88 which are identical in design in the present case. The centering parts 88 are elongated in the longitudinal direction 42. Viewed in the longitudinal direction 42, the centering parts 88 are wedge-shaped ( Figures 1 and 14 ).

[0126] The centering parts 88 are spaced apart from one another in the transverse direction 44. A groove-shaped recess 90 is arranged between the centering parts 88. Each centering part 88 borders an adjacent longitudinal side wall 48.

[0127] When the motorcycle 18 is pushed in, the front wheel 22 enters the recess 90. This allows the front wheel 22 to be guided during insertion until it reaches the desired target position.

[0128] It is advantageous if the centering parts 88 are adjacent to the blocking part 86, as in the present case. In this way, in addition to the blocking in the longitudinal direction 42, a fixation can be achieved via the centering parts 88 in the transverse direction 44.

[0129] A respective centering part 88 is formed from a one-piece material blank made of paper material, in particular corrugated cardboard. For example, at least three segments 92 are foldably connected to one another along fold lines 93, preferably four segments 92 ( Figure 14 ).

[0130] Facing the recess 90, the centering parts 88 have a greater height than facing away from the recess 90, so that the centering parts 88 slope downwards toward the adjacent longitudinal side wall 48 toward the floor 26. This provides additional space in the receiving space 52 laterally next to the front wheel 22 for accommodating motorcycle components or accessories.

[0131] In this case, the support body 14, in combination with the support parts 96 of the device 10 explained below, allows the rear wheel 20 to be supported and the motorcycle 18 to be secured against tipping in the transverse direction 44. The support body 14 is adapted to a hollow axle 98 of the rear wheel 20. The support body 14 can be pushed through the hollow axle 98 and is dimensioned such that it projects beyond the hollow axle 98 on both sides. Figure 4This is shown using the example of the left side. The projection of the support body 14 is preferably at least approximately 5 cm to 20 cm, for example approximately 10 cm to 15 cm.

[0132] By being accommodated in the hollow axle 98, the support body 14 is arranged in a defined, predetermined position on the rear wheel 20.

[0133] Instead of the support body 14 pushed through the hollow axle 98, at least one other type of support body can be provided. For example, it is conceivable that each support body is fixed to an axle or hub of the rear wheel 20, for example, by being screwed onto it. Accordingly, two support bodies can be provided on the opposite sides of the rear wheel 20.

[0134] As can be seen in particular from the Figures 1As is clear from Figures 3 to 7, two support members 96 are provided. The support members 96 are arranged spaced apart from one another in the transverse direction 44. A gap 100 is arranged between the support members 96. The rear wheel 20 can be arranged in the gap 100, including, for example, frame parts such as a portion of a swing arm 102 to which the rear wheel 20 is mounted.

[0135] In the present case, it is advantageous that the support parts 96 are designed as identical parts. Therefore, only the design of one of the support parts 96 is explained below. The relevant explanations also apply to the other support part 96.

[0136] Relative to the longitudinal direction 82, the support parts 96 are arranged near the transverse side from which the motorcycle 18 is pushed onto the ground 26. If the ramp part 62 acts as a blocking part 84, it is adjacent to the support parts 96 in the longitudinal direction 82. For example, the support parts 96 are arranged in the longitudinal direction 42 in the region of a rear third, preferably in the region of a rear quarter of the device 10, relative to the orientation of the motorcycle 18 ( Figure 2 ).

[0137] The support part 96 rests on the floor 26, in particular the floor wall 36. For this purpose, a flat support element 104 is provided. It is advantageous if the support part 96 can be freely positioned relative to the floor 26. For example, depending on the type of motorcycle 18 to be packaged, the support part 96 can be arranged in a suitable position to achieve the best possible desired position for the motorcycle 18.

[0138] The support part 96 comprises at least one connecting section 106. Two connecting sections 106 are provided here. To secure the support part 96 to the floor 26, stapling can preferably be performed through the connecting sections 106. Clamps advantageously extend into the pallet 34. The stapling reliably secures the support part 96 to the floor 26.

[0139] The support part 96 comprises a support element 108 on a side facing away from the base 26, in particular on an upper side. Due to the design of the support part 96 explained below, the support element 108 is configured as a multi-segment structure. In some sections, the support element 108 is aligned parallel to the base wall 36.

[0140] The support element 108 further comprises a recess 110 for receiving the support body 14. The recess 110 is configured as a depression and defines an axis 112. When the support part 96 is correctly positioned on the ground 26, the axis 112 is aligned in the transverse direction 44. When the motorcycle 18 is correctly positioned, the axis 112 coincides with an axis 114 defined by the support body 14.

[0141] Upstream of the support element 108 in the insertion direction 64, ie in the direction of the insertion side on which the ramp part 62 is arranged, the support part 96 comprises a ramp element 116. The ramp element 116 is also multi-segmented.

[0142] The ramp element 116 rises in the vertical direction as viewed in the insertion direction 64. An initial section 118 facing away from the support element 108 is arranged at a distance from the bottom wall 36.

[0143] A slope of the ramp element 116 forms an angle of, for example, approximately 30° to 70° with a plane defined by the bottom wall 36. In the present embodiment, the angle is approximately 40°.

[0144] Downstream of the support element 108, in particular the recess 110 in the insertion direction 64, i.e., on the side facing away from the insertion side, the support element 96 comprises a stop element 120. The stop element 120 is formed, for example, by an extension of the edge of the recess 110. The stop element 120 blocks the support body 14 against movement in the insertion direction 64.

[0145] Accordingly, viewed in the insertion direction 64 from the insertion side, the support part 96 first comprises the ramp element 116, then the support element 108, first its section parallel to the bottom wall 36 and then the recess 110, and finally the stop element 120.

[0146] When the motorcycle 18 is pushed in, the rear wheel 20 rolls onto the floor wall 36. The support body 14 comes to rest against, and in particular on, the ramp element 116. As the motorcycle 18 continues to move, the support body 14 is guided upwards toward the support element 108 until it engages the recess 110 and strikes the stop element 120 in the insertion direction 64.

[0147] If the support body 14 is engaged with the support part 96 at the recess 110 in a support position, a portion of the weight of the motorcycle 18 can be transferred to the ground 26 via the support parts 96. By providing two support parts 96 on opposite sides of the motorcycle 18, additional fixation in the transverse direction 44 is achieved. As a result, the motorcycle 18 is reliably held on the ground 26 and assumes a defined desired position. Furthermore, the front wheel 22 is fixed between the centering parts 88 and blocked at the front by the blocking part 86. The rear wheel 20 can be blocked by the blocking part 84.

[0148] When the support body 14 engages in the recess 110, it is aligned parallel to the plane of the bottom wall 36.

[0149] In the present example, the rear wheel 20 is not suspended from the support members 96 and the support body 14. Instead, the rear wheel 20 also rests on the floor wall 36, which supports part of the weight of the motorcycle 18. This helps distribute the load and avoid overloading the support members 96.

[0150] The support part 96 is in this case made of a one-piece blank 122 ( Figure 7 ) is made of a paper material, in particular corrugated cardboard. Three-layer corrugated cardboard is preferably used to provide sufficient stability to the support member 96.

[0151] As can be seen in particular from the Figures 4 to 6As can be seen, the support part 96 comprises a plurality of material layers 124 arranged laterally next to one another in the transverse direction 44. Of four material layers 124, three adjacent material layers 124 lie flat against one another. A fifth material layer 124 is arranged at a distance from the nearest material layer 124 and, in this case, is aligned at an angle to it.

[0152] The material layers 124 together form the segments of the ramp element 116 and the support element 108, including the bottom of the recess 110.

[0153] The material layers 124 are each formed to extend in the longitudinal direction 42 and in the height direction 40.

[0154] The two spaced-apart material layers 124 are connected to one another via a stiffening element 126 of the support part 96. In the present case, two stiffening elements 126 are provided, which are spaced apart from one another in the longitudinal direction 42. Each stiffening element 126 extends in the vertical direction 40 and in the transverse direction 44.

[0155] The stiffening element 126 is held foldably, for example, on a material layer 124. The stiffening element 126 is connected to at least one further material layer 124. In the present example, tabs 128 are used for this purpose, which engage in corresponding recesses 130 of the at least one further material layer 124. In the present case, the tabs 128 engage in two material layers 124 ( Figure 7 ).

[0156] In the longitudinal direction 42, the support element 104 projects beyond the stiffening elements 126. For this purpose, the material layer 124 that is connected to the stiffening element 126 via the fold line 127 is shorter in the longitudinal direction 42 than the adjacent material layer 124. This exposes the connecting section 106 ( Figures 5 and 6 ).

[0157] In the case of the support part 96, it is particularly provided that a rigidity in the vertical direction 40 is greater than in the longitudinal direction 42 and / or in the transverse direction 44. It is advantageous if a wave crest of the corrugated cardboard material extends in the vertical direction 40. In this way, the support part 96 can be given the necessary rigidity to dissipate the weight force onto the base wall 36.

[0158] To unfold the support part 96 starting from the blank 122, for example, a material layer 124a can be folded around a pair of fold lines 131 (upward in the drawing) onto another material layer 124b. Parallel fold lines 132 connect the second material layer 124b via a top section 134 of the support part 96 to the material layer 124c, to which the stiffening elements 126 are foldably held.

[0159] The support element 104 is foldably connected to the last-mentioned material layer 124c and to another material layer 124d via parallel fold lines 136. In the present example, this layer and the support element 104 are pivoted upward out of the plane of the drawing. The last of the material layers 124e is connected to the previously mentioned material layer 124d via another pair of fold lines 137. It can be pivoted upward out of the plane of the drawing or downward into the plane of the drawing.

[0160] Tabs 138 on the material layer 124b can engage in recesses 139 between the support element 104 and the material layer 124d and / or 124e to fix the support part 96 in a position of use.

[0161] In Figure 7 the individual segments of the support element 108, the recess 110 and the ramp element 116 are marked with the respective reference symbol.

[0162] The stiffening elements 126 are essentially trapezoidal when viewed in the longitudinal direction 42. For this reason, the spaced-apart material layers 124 are not aligned parallel to one another, but rather at an angle to one another. The material layer 124 (124c) to which the stiffening elements 126 are attached is inclined relative to the normal to the floor 26. As a result, the support part 96 widens from top to bottom, and the weight force can be distributed over a larger area.

[0163] Due to the widening of the support part 96 from top to bottom, it has an approximately truncated pyramid shape.

[0164] The support member 96 is dimensioned such that the support element 108 and the support body 14 are arranged at a distance of approximately 20 cm to approximately 50 cm above the base wall 36. For example, a distance of approximately 25 cm to 45 cm may prove advantageous, preferably approximately 30 cm to 40 cm.

[0165] In particular, the packaging system 12 or the device 10 can be provided with support parts 96 which are functionally identical but differ from one another in terms of their height in order to enable the most precise adaptation possible to the type of motorcycle 18.

[0166] In order to fix the motorcycle 18 in the receiving space 52, the device 10 further comprises a fixing part 140, which is described below with particular reference to the Figures 1 , 2and 11 to 13.

[0167] The fixing part 140 can be slipped over the motorcycle 18, especially over a motorcycle seat 142.

[0168] The fixing part 140 comprises two support sections 144 arranged at a distance from one another in the transverse direction 44, which are connected to one another via a connecting section 146.

[0169] In the present case, it is advantageous that the fixing part 140 is designed to be mirror-symmetrical with respect to an axis of symmetry 148. The axis of symmetry 148 runs centrally through the connecting section 146 and is oriented perpendicular to a plane defined by the connecting section.

[0170] Due to the symmetry, the user can put the fixing part 140 over the motorcycle 18 in two orientations, each with identical operation, without the user having to pay attention to the orientation.

[0171] Each support section 144 comprises a contact element 150. The fixing part 140 can rest flat against the longitudinal side wall 48 via the contact element 150. Overall, this makes it possible to fix the fixing part 140 in a form-fitting manner between the longitudinal side walls 48 in the transverse direction 44.

[0172] Via the connecting section 146, the fixing part 140 can also rest on the motorcycle 18 and is fixed in the vertical direction 40. In the present case, the connecting section 146 is a support element 152 that is aligned parallel to the bottom wall 36.

[0173] Below the connecting section 146, a recess 154 is formed, which is delimited in the transverse direction 44 by the support sections 144. The recess 154 widens toward the floor 26. Conversely, the recess 154 tapers upward in the height direction 40. Viewed in the longitudinal direction 42, the recess 154 is approximately trapezoidal.

[0174] The widening recess 154 allows the position of the fixing part 140 to be adapted to motorcycles 18 of different types in a structurally simple manner.

[0175] A respective support section 144 comprises, in the longitudinal direction 42, two side walls 156 spaced apart from one another and also a bottom wall 158. The side walls 156 and the bottom wall 158 delimit a respective receiving space 160 of the support section 144. Motorcycle parts or accessories, for example, can be received in the receiving space 160.

[0176] Above the connecting section 146, a further recess 162 is formed between the support sections 144. Longer motorcycle parts, for example, can be passed through the recess 162. For example, the disassembled handlebar can be passed through the recess 162 and placed on top of the motorcycle seat 142.

[0177] Figure 13shows a one-piece blank 164 for the fixing part 140 made of a paper material, in particular corrugated cardboard. The fixing part 140 can be transferred from the blank 164 into a use position by unfolding it and can be fixed in the use position.

[0178] The fixing part 140 can preferably form a hold-down device that is supported on the top side of the cover 30. This enables additional fixation of the motorcycle 18 in the vertical direction 40.

[0179] It will be appreciated that padding may be placed between the motorcycle 18 and components of the device 10 for protection during transport.

[0180] It is further understood that, in contrast to the off-road motorcycle shown, a motorcycle 18 of a different type or a different type of two-wheeler could alternatively be packaged. List of reference symbols:
