摘要 |
The invention is directed to a supporting frame, in particular for a transporting device for transporting flat, preferably surface-coated objects. The supporting frame has a plurality of web parts which are welded together to form a receiving surface for the transported objects. A first web part has a cross-sectional profile having at least one bead which projects above a fastening surface for fastening to a second web part. The bead provides an alignment guide during assembly of the web parts so that none of the web parts protrude above the receiving surface of the support frame. The bead also prevents excess welding materials from protruding above the receiving surface of the support frame. By preventing protrusions of web parts and welding materials above the receiving surface of the support frame, damage to objects transported on the support frame is avoided or eliminated. Also, all terminating ends of the second web parts are connected with the first web part and there are no web parts or portions thereof extending at right angles to the feed direction of the objects, further avoiding or eliminating damage to the objects transported.
