  • Patent number: 7987796
    Abstract: A loading pallet includes first bars (2) and second bars (3) arranged essentially parallel with each other, The first bars (2) are arranged essentially in a single plane (8) and the second bars (3) include upper parts (9) arranged essentially in the plane (8) and downwardly directed parts (10) directed downwards relative to the plane (8). Third bars (4) are arranged transverse to the first bars (2) and second bars (3), lie under the plane (8), and are connected to the first bars (2) and the upper parts (9) of the second bars (3). The loading pallet (1) can be stacked onto a corresponding loading pallet (1), whereby the third bars (4) can make contact with such bars (2) from the loading pallet (1) located below. The height (h5) of the third bars (4) is such that the height of the spaces between stacked loading pallets (1) is such that lifting structure (17) can be introduced into the spaces for lifting loading pallets (1).

  • Publication number: 20100243647
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a goods container for loading spaces in vehicles, preferably in aircraft, which goods container comprises at least one goods storage space for the loading, storage, transport and unloading of goods. With a view to achieving a goods container which allows optimum utilization of the loading space of a vehicle, preferably of an aircraft, the goods container has at least one sidewall (1, 2, 3 and 4), a bottom (5) and a top (6) made of non-self-supporting material which delineate the goods storage space, and also a loadbearing structure (7) which maintains the sidewalls, the bottom and the top made of non-self-supporting material so that they delineate said goods storage space, and the non-self-supporting material is disposed in the bottom (5) of the goods container in at least two, preferably three or four, layers.

  • Publication number: 20090000524
    Abstract: The present invention concerns a loading pallet that demonstrates first bars (2) and second bars (3) arranged essentially parallel with each other, whereby the first bars (2) are arranged essentially in a single plane (8) and the second bars (3) demonstrate upper parts (9) that are arranged essentially in the said plane (8) and downwardly directed parts (10) that are directed downwards relative to the said plane (8). Third bars (4) are arranged transverse relative to the first bars (2) and second bars (3); they lie under the said plane (8), and they are connected to the first bars (2) and to the upper parts (9) of the second bars (3). The loading pallet (1) can be stacked onto a corresponding loading pallet (1), whereby the third bars (4) can make contact with such bars (2) as those included in the said plane (8) from the loading pallet (1) that is located below.

  • Patent number: 7410128
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a transport device in cargo spaces in aircrafts, the transport device including a frame structure which, using retaining devices, is provided at the fuselage in the cargo space. The frame structure includes at least one conveyor belt for transport and storage of goods in the cargo space. The retaining devices are provided to retain the frame structure at the fuselage such that it can move in the retaining devices when it is subjected to abnormally high loads.

  • Patent number: 5163801
    Abstract: A loading device for loading and unloading of a loading space comprising a framework having longitudinal profile strips and transverse coal-fibre foils between which a slide cloth is positioned. A partition limits the loading space and is connected to a transport cloth which extends forwards above the slide cloth to the front end of the loading space and over the front foil and backwards below the slide cloth and at the other end being connected to several pull bands which extend further backwards to the inner end of the loading space below the slide cloth and then forwards above the slide cloth and to the other side of the partition. Two nuts are attached to the partition and cooperate with two longitudinal drive screws. The screws are anchored in the longitudinal direction by sleeves in either end and the sleeves having axial needle bearings as well as radial roller bearings.

  • Patent number: 5046690
    Abstract: A device for loading and unloading goods in an aircraft is provided in the cargo space (1) of the aircraft. The device has at least one transport path (3; 3A, 3B) which is substantially parallel to the floor of the cargo space (1) and on which the goods is placed; a drive assembly (11, 13-19, 13', 17'; 40-47) by means of which the transport path (3; 3A, 3B) can be driven forwards and backwards; and a wall (10) which extends vertically transversely of the cargo space, serves as a stop for the load piled on the belt and is connected to the transport path and movable together with it from a position adjacent the opening of the cargo space through which the goods is loaded and unloaded, to a position at the far end (1A) of the cargo space, and vice versa.

  • Patent number: 4347794
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a pallet which is particularly, but not exclusively intended for use in cargo terminals or other stations where goods are transferred from one means of transportation to another to facilitate loading, unloading and reloading of goods, but which is also useful for the ordinary purposes of the pallet. Characteristic of the invention is that the pallet comprises a body in the form of a rectangular, relatively light-weight framework of light metal or aluminum beams with a load-carrying surface formed by a plurality of rollers, preferably in the form of ball roller means, connected to the framework, and with at least one brake roller which is supported in such a position that goods having planar undersides, which, when carried on the pallet, are moved on the rollers, will be braked by means of the brake roller which is preferably carried by a swiveling frame to permit braking in whatever direction the goods are shifted.
