A composite pallet structure includes a unit pallet including: upper and lower basic supporting boards, at least two spaced-apart auxiliary rods attached to each of the corresponding sides of the upper and lower basic supporting boards, a plurality of spacers distributed between the auxiliary rods on the upper basic supporting board and the auxiliary rods on the lower basic supporting board, and a plurality of fixing elements for restricting the spacers within the space between the upper and lower basic supporting boards in order for the unit pallet to have high supporting strength. The composite pallet structure needs no soldering and, therefore, can be easily repaired and recycled.

A pallet includes a top plate, an opposite bottom plate, and a series of supports disposed between the top and bottom plates. The series of supports, top plate, and bottom plate collectively define an opening on each vertical side of the pallet. The spacing of the supports from each other further defines a series of pathways configured to receive the forks of both a forklift and a pallet jack. The pallet may be configured to receive the forks of a forklift and a pallet jack from multiple different directions. The forks of the forklift may be received by the pallet such that the forks are oriented either perpendicular or parallel to the sides of the pallet. The forks of the pallet jack may be received by the pallet such that the forks are offset from being either perpendicular or parallel to the sides of the pallet.

A gas cylinder lifting extension for industrial gas cylinder transportation. The gas cylinder lifting extension containing a first end with a cylindrical cavity and a second flat end with two perpendicular, rectangular channels through it to allow for secured lifting with a forklift.

A cage can be positioned around a medical balloon, such as an angioplasty balloon, to assist in a medical procedure. The cage can include a plurality of strips, each extending between a set of rings including first and second rings. As the balloon expands, the first and second rings move closer together and allow the strips to expand outward. The cage may have wedge dissectors on the strips.

A collapsible container comprising a base comprising a plurality of grooves located at a periphery of a top surface of said base; a first sleeve having a first set of three flat surfaces; wherein at least one first flat surface of said first set of three flat surfaces comprises an extension of said first flat surface adapted to be inserted in at least one groove of said plurality of grooves; a second sleeve having a second set of three flat surfaces; wherein at least one second flat surface of said second set of three flat surfaces comprises an extension of said second flat surface adapted to be inserted in at least one groove of said plurality of grooves; where when said first sleeve and said second sleeve are located in their respective grooves, they completely surround said base; where said plurality of grooves do not comprise a full-angled groove.

A pallet includes an upper structure and a lower structure. The upper structure includes an upper deck and a plurality of upper column portions projecting downward from the upper deck. The lower structure includes a plurality of lower column portions. The upper column portions and the lower column portions are configured such that the upper deck is configured at first height when the upper structure is secured to the lower structure in a first orientation and the upper deck is configured at a second height when the upper structure is secured to the lower structure at a second orientation. Optionally, the upper deck of the pallet includes a plurality of perimeter regions into which a desired one of a plurality of inserts can be secured to produce pallets with different perimeter options.
