Described herein are collapsible containers for transportation of cargo, and methods of using them. The containers may include textured bottom surfaces to facilitate positive engagement with a conveyor. In some embodiments, the containers include secure locking mechanisms that prevent inadvertent unlocking while also permitting one-handed operation. In some embodiments, the containers include adapters to facilitate discharge of liquid cargo.

Folding transport container intended mainly for transport of materials, goods, and other cargo, comprising the base, side panels with side uprights (2, 3), where these panels have pivot links with edges of the base and lock-release mechanism (1). The lock-release mechanism is placed inside the side upright (2) of the first side panel and includes the lever (4) with catch (5) and spring (6), wherein the lever (4) is placed in rotary fashion inside the side upright (2) of the first side panel using fixed axis (7) so that one end of the lever (4) is placed within the hollow 1 (8) of the side upright (2) of the first side panel, while the other end of the lever (2) has fixed link to a catch (5), which is placed inside the hollow 2 (9) of the side upright (2) of the first side panel. The side upright (3) of the adjacent side panel is equipped with an opening (10), whose shape and dimensions are adapted to the shape and dimensions of the catch (5) and it is in one plane with the catch (5). The spring (6) is linked to the lever (4).

The present invention relates to a folding container (100) that comprises a base (102) further comprising a floor (112). At least two side panels (104, 104′) are mechanically attached to the base. A rear panel (106) comprises rear hinges (118) attached thereto that are pivotably connected to the base (102) and operable to pivot between a folded position that contacts the floor and a vertically deployed position. A hinge block (119) is attached to the base (102). A front panel (108) comprising a front door (109), and further comprising front hinges (122) is pivotably connected to the hinge block (119), and operable to pivot between a folded position that contacts the front panel (108) and a vertically deployed position.

Modular pallet system for transporting bulky and fragile goods in a multi-story constellation, the system consists of the modules basic-pallet, vertical-pillars, longitudinal-reinforce-elements and transversal-reinforce-elements. The basic-pallet provides the surface for placing the cargo and for lashing via integrated tie-down points. Further junction points at the edges of the basic-pallet are for the connection with the vertical-pillars and through these with the reinforce elements, necessary to provide the assembly's stability, enabling stack ability with additional basic-pallets on top.

A collapsible storage and transportation unit is disclosed and comprises a base including a cargo area surrounded by an edge having four ends; four wall panel supporting members connected to the edge of the base, each wall panel supporting member comprising at least a first post member and a second post member, the wall panel supporting members being pivotable between a folded configuration and an unfolded configuration, wherein in the folded configuration the wall panel supporting members are lying down over the base and the collapsible storage and transportation unit is in a collapsed configuration. In the unfolded configuration the first post member of a first given wall panel supporting member and the second post member of a second given wall panel supporting member are both adjacent to each other. A first collapsible storage and transportation unit is stackable over a second collapsible storage and transportation unit.
