Bakery tray
A bakery tray includes a base and a pair of opposed side walls extending upward from side edges of the base. Front and rear walls extend upward from front and rear edges of the base. A plurality of recesses for receiving bakery items therein are formed in the base. This increases the number of bakery items that can be received in the tray and/or permits a decrease in the stacking height of the trays, thereby permitting another tray to be received on the stack. In one embodiment, the recesses are a plurality of parallel troughs formed in an upper surface of the base. In another embodiment, the plurality of recesses are formed in the ribs in the base, such that the bakery items are received in the recesses.
COVERED STORAGE BIN
A storage bin including a box and a lid. The box includes a bottom and at least four walls extending from the bottom to an upper rim. The lid is configured to be positioned relative to the rim such that the lid closes the box. The lid defines a planar lid surface with an upwardly extending peripheral raised edge thereabout. A plurality of friction feet may be secured to the box bottom. The lid may include at least one lock assembly. The lid may include a label assembly.
CANTILEVERED DUMPER SYSTEM
A cantilevered dumping system comprising a dumping mechanism that is adapted to be repositioned (e.g., reversed) relative to a base structure such that there may be multiple modes of operation of the dumping mechanism relative to the base structure (e.g., loading of materials and/or movement of the dumping mechanism, etc.). An exemplary embodiment of a dumping system may allow for the connections of a dumping mechanism to a base structure to be changed (e.g., reversed) such that the operation of the dumping mechanism relative to the base structure (e.g., loading of materials and/or movement of the dumping mechanism, etc.) is different. Another embodiment of a dumping system may include a base structure that includes multiple guide plates and/or guide rails to facilitate the desired modes of operation of a dumping mechanism relative to the base structure (e.g., loading of materials and/or movement of the dumping mechanism, etc.).
Interlocking basket system
In one embodiment, a storage container is disclosed. The storage container includes a plurality of sidewalls and a bottom wall operably coupled to the plurality of sidewalls. The bottom wall and the plurality of sidewalls together define a storage cavity. A storage container also includes a support bracket that transitions from a first position where the support bracket is contained within an exterior perimeter of the bottom wall to a second position where the support bracket extends past the exterior perimeter of the bottom wall. The support bracket may be used to support the storage container on an adjacent storage container, such that the storage container can be nested within an adjacent storage container or positioned above the adjacent storage container.
INTERLOCKING BASKET SYSTEM
A storage container includes: a plurality of sidewalls; a bottom wall operably coupled to the plurality of sidewalls, together defining a storage cavity; at least one support bracket coupled to the bottom wall, movable between a first position wherein an outer surface of at least one support bracket is flush with a perimeter of the bottom wall, and a second position wherein the outer surface of the at least one support bracket extends beyond the perimeter; and a plurality of guide walls extending parallel to one another and formed adjacent to the at least one support bracket that guide the movement of the at least one support bracket between the first position and second the position.
