Abstract

A shipment packaging for elongate components is provided. Turbine blades must be sent from remote locations of the world to another location. During shipment, the coating of the turbine blades must be protected. The turbine blades are fixed at both ends by means of shipment packaging so that the turbine blades are protected.

Claims (24)

1. An arrangement to carry elongate components, comprising:

a shipment packaging for elongate components, comprising:

a stable outer packaging consisting of an open container with an outer cover, and

an internal space of the outer packaging in which there is an inner packaging,

wherein the inner packaging comprises a plug-in divider and two lateral receptacles; and

an elongate component,

wherein the plug-in divider comprises a plurality of compartments,

wherein the two lateral receptacles hold the elongate component in a compartment of the plug-in divider and such that the elongate component is held lying in the two lateral receptacles,

wherein each of the two lateral receptacles includes a depression with a contour corresponding to a contour of a portion of the elongate component, and

wherein the arrangement is configured such that the elongate component does not come into contact with a further elongate component, and

wherein the elongate component is a turbine component.

2. The arrangement as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the plug-in divider comprises polypropylene trilaminate.

3. The arrangement as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a plurality of inner packagings are present one above another in layers in the internal space of the outer packaging.

4. The arrangement as claimed in claim 1 , wherein two components are arranged in the compartment of the plug-in divider.

5. The arrangement as claim 1 , wherein only one component is arrangement in the compartment of the plug-in divider.

6. The arrangement as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a protective cover.

7. The arrangement as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a plug-in divider cover is present at least in one layer.

8. The arrangement as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the plug-in divider cover comprises means for fixing the elongate component.

9. The arrangement as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the fixing means represent corrugated foams including a groove-like form.

10. The arrangement as claimed 1 , further comprising an insert which directly faces the outer cover and rests on the plug-in divider, the insert comprises a plurality of blocks on the insert for the transmission of force from the cover to the plug-in divider.

11. The arrangement as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the two lateral receptacles receive only one elongate component.

12. The arrangement as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the two lateral receptacles receive two elongate components.

13. The arrangement as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the two lateral receptacles receive only identical components.

14. The arrangement as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the arrangement comprises a reinforcement for the plug-in divider.
