11142370 · 2021-10-12 ·

A pallet with wheels and braking system, that can be interlocked with other pallets. The pallet has wheels underneath that allow the pallet to move in all directions. The pallet's braking system slows and stops the wheels on the pallet. There is interlocking connection capabilities on all four sides of the pallet that interlocks and connects multiple pallets together, and synchronizes the interlocked pallet's braking systems. There is also forklift access on all four sides of the pallet that allows the forklift to push, pull or lift the pallet, and operate the pallet's braking and interlocking systems. The pallet further includes corner bumpers to protect pallet, load stabilizers that prevent pallet from moving during transit, shelf rack bars that are installed or extended for additional support of goods and shelving, and wheel insets that prevent wheels from moving when pallets are stacked.

Low Stress Packaging Design to Minimize Pellet Blocking

Packaging configuration comprising: a pallet comprising a top surface, a bottom surface and a height HP; a first stack of bagged goods having a total height HL 1, stacked on the pallet and comprising at least two layers; and a support structure comprising at least four walls situated over the first stack of bagged goods, one of the walls being a top wall and at least three of the walls being sidewalls. The support structure has a height HC that meets one of the following equations: HC>HL 1, when the bottom end of at least one sidewall of the support structure is positioned on the top surface of the at least one pallet; or HC>HP+HL 1, when the bottom end of at least one sidewall of the support structure and the bottom surface of the pallet are both positioned on the same surface. An air gap having a height HAG is situated between a top layer of the first stack of bagged goods and the top wall of the support structure.

Molded container assembly connection system

A molded container assembly including a pallet, a molded container, and a plurality of connection systems.
