An apparatus configured to receive, store and transport windows and doors that is further operable to provide assistance in the installation process. The apparatus includes a frame having a floor support assembly and a floor member superposed thereon. A frame is integrally formed with the floor support assembly and extends upwards therefrom on three sides thereof. The frame consists of four vertical support members and a plurality of horizontal support members. The frame defines the receiving area of the apparatus. Hingedly attached securing members are present on the vertical support members and are operable to assist in the securing of the apparatus during transport. A plurality of tie-down loops are secured to the frame. The floor support assembly is configured to be operably coupled with forks of a forklift. The frame further includes joining members and grooves configured to mateably couple when the apparatus are vertically stacked.

A molded container assembly including a pallet, a molded container, and a plurality of connection systems. The pallet supports the molded container thereon and includes stacking alignment structure for stacking the pallet on another molded container assembly. The molded container includes a tank portion, several leg supports, and several buttresses. The tank portion includes several curved sidewalls and a fill opening. The leg supports include lower sections and upper sections that extend above the fill opening for spacing a pallet stacked on top of the molded container above the fill opening. The upper sections include pallet engaging structure for engaging pallets of at least two different types. The buttresses extend between the tank portion and the leg supports. The connection systems include washers that allow for shrinkage and expansion between the molded container and the pallet in a number of directions.

An improved shipping frame for use with storage and/or transporting goods includes four corner posts and a top surface and a bottom surface. The corner posts comprise of telescoping leg sections whereby the smaller dimensioned section fits within the larger dimensioned section and can be locked at a particular height. A shield assembly comprises a rear shield and two side shields is affixed to the top section of the frame to brace any upper load therein.

The invention relates to a stabilizing arrangement for transporting a switch cabinet, with a switch cabinet which comprises a frame stand consisting of vertical and horizontal struts, and with a switch cabinet door fastened on a door side of the frame stand by at least one hinge, so that the switch cabinet door can be pivoted back and forth between an open position in which it is pivoted away from the door side and a closed position in which it rests on the door side, characterized in that at least one positive-locking part is fastened on the door side and which extends away from the door side with its free end and comprises an undercut on its free end, wherein the switch cabinet door comprises a positive receptacle into which receptacle the positive-locking part extends with its free end in the closed position and extends behind the undercut in the closed position.

The various embodiments herein relate to collapsible and stackable pallets having a base, two fork channels, a transverse fork opening, and first and second extension frames.

A composite pallet for the transport and long-term storage of barrels, comprising a base element made of plastic with a top side, an under side and support projections; a deck element made of plastic with a top side for storing the barrels; and a depositing area for holding a vertical barrel. The deck element has an under side and support projections resting on the base element support projections, and is supported against the base element; the deck element under side is at a distance from the base element top side. Support inserts made of a material with a creep modulus which is higher over a predefined period than a creep modulus of plastic, and the decrease in which is lower than that of plastic over the specified period, are locked into holders on the deck element under side and on the base element top side.

A rack construction assembly for building a storage rack includes a plurality of bracket units. Each of the bracket units has a plurality of channels therein to insertably receive dimensional lumber. Thus, the dimensional lumber is arranged to form a rack for storing objects. Each of the channels corresponding to each of the bracket units is oriented at right angles with respect to each other. Thus, the dimensional lumber corresponding to each of the channels defines an X axis, a Y axis and a Z axis of the rack.

A container comprising a first side-panel section separated from a second side-panel section. Each of the first and second side-panel sections includes a side portion fold line extending laterally across the side-panel sections, such that each side-panel section presents two side portions. Furthermore, the container includes a pair of end flaps extending along lateral edges of the first and second side-panel sections and separated from the side-panel sections via primary fold lines, with the end flaps operable to connect the first and second side-panel sections together. The container is configured to be erected from a knockdown configuration by folding together the first side-panel section and the second side-panel section, and extending the first side-panel section and the second side-panel section away from each other such that the container forms a rectangular perimeter.
