Abstract

Novel runners for a transport box, a pallet or the like are described which are provided with an arrangement allowing assembly of several similar or diametrically opposed runner elements into a runner.

We claim:  
     
         1 . A runner for a transport box, a pallet or the like, comprising several similar or diametrically opposed runner elements positioned in an arrangement that can be assembled into the runner.  
     
     
         2 . A runner according to  claim 1 , wherein the runner elements comprise cams that are arranged transversally to the cams at end regions of the cams.  
     
     
         3 . A runner according to  claim 1 , wherein the runner elements comprise hollow spaces.  
     
     
         4 . A runner according to  claim 3 , wherein the hollow spaces of the runner elements have at least one arrangement selected from the group consisting of: trapezoid-shaped and arc-shaped arrangements.  
     
     
         5 . A runner according to  claim 1 , wherein the runner elements comprise flat longitudinal ribs.  
     
     
         6 . A runner according to  claim 1 , wherein the runner elements can be assembled at their end zones into a runner by means of connection pieces.  
     
     
         7 . A runner according to  claim 6 , wherein at least one of the end zones of a runner element is beveled and forms a right angle with a respectively beveled end region of another runner element.  
     
     
         8 . A runner according to  claim 7 , wherein the respective end zones are beveled in a step-like fashion.  
     
     
         9 . A runner according to  claim 2 , wherein the cams comprise honeycomb-like reinforcements.
