An apparatus for construction of a stringer of a pallet is disclosed herein. In various aspects, the apparatus includes a corrugate sheet (30) cut to form a stringer shape sheet (32) with the stringer shape sheet (32) having a plurality of parallel stringer sections (33) defined by cuts from an upper surface through a lower surface of the stringer shape sheet (32). Each stringer section (33) on the stringer shape sheet (32) may be linked to an adjacent stringer section (33) by a plurality of shear bridges (34).

Provided is a mounting base member used in a pair for mounting an object to be conveyed thereon, the mounting base member including: a body part configured to support the object to be conveyed; and a top plate part that extends in at least a horizontal direction from an upper part of the body part. The top plate part covers an upper surface of the body part, or the upper surface of the body part contacting the conveyed object is flush with an upper surface of an extending portion of the top plate part.

A shipping pallet apparatus (10) comprises an upper deck (12) comprising a plurality of corrugate sheets bonded in lamination to one another, a plurality of stringers (18) or blocks (19) adhesively secured to a lower surface of the upper deck (12), and a plurality of reinforcing plates (16) secured between adjacent corrugate sheets of the plurality of corrugate sheets, each reinforcing plate (16) of the plurality of reinforcing plates positioned between two stringers (18) or two blocks (19) of the plurality of stringers or blocks to define a medial gap (32) and a lateral gap (34), and each reinforcing plate (16) defining an impact edge aligned with an edge of the upper deck (12) to absorb a force from a tine.

A packaging fastener includes a base member and a key member. The base member includes a first cylindrical part inserted through overlapped through holes of packaging materials. The key member includes a second cylindrical part inserted into the first cylindrical part of the base member. By inserting the first cylindrical part of the base member through the through holes and then inserting the second cylindrical part into the first cylindrical part, the packaging materials are coupled together. The key member has an engaging part. The base member has an engaged part. The engagement part has an elastically deformable supporting part and a lock claw. In a state where the lock claw is engaged with the engaged part, by elastically deforming the supporting part, the lock claw is displaced to a direction separate away from the engaged part to release an engagement of the lock claw with the engaged part.

A corrugated pallet folded together from two planar blanks, including a pallet top that supports a load above a floor, and a pallet bottom that rests on the floor. Each pallet top and pallet bottom has multiple double thickness interior support ribs folded vertically from the plane of the pallet top and bottom. Ribs from the pallet top intersect with ribs from the pallet bottom perpendicularly and support the pallet top on the pallet bottom. Multiple mechanical vertical locks hold the pallet top in vertically spaced relation with the pallet bottom with middle straps folded vertically from the pallet top and/or pallet bottom into contact with interior surfaces of the pallet and lock directly into sides of the interior support ribs at positions intermediate the pallet top and bottom. Reinforcement tubes are provided over intersections of double thickness ribs at the corners of the pallet while folded doubled thickness ribs provide compression support near the center.

A pallet is formed in which one or more components thereof is formed of a composite material. The composite material includes mass particles consisting of a fibrous material derived at least in part from recycled post-consumer materials and a binding material consisting of a thermoplastic material derived at least in part from recycled post-consumer materials. The mass particles and the binding material are mixed such that the binding material is liquified and each mass particle is fully encapsulated by the liquified binding material.

Sleeve pallet 10 is constructed from corrugate are disclosed. The sleeve pallet 10 includes a series of stringers 12 secured to an upper deck 14 and/or collar 16. When bonded to an upper deck 14, the upper deck 14 is bonded to and supports a collar 16. The collar 16 defines a peripheral flange 40. The peripheral flange 40 retains a sleeve over the collar 16 and/or upper deck 14 of the sleeve pallet 10. A cap 60 can be provided to cover and retains goods within the cavity 82 defined by the sleeve pallet 10. Before assembly, the flange 40 of the collar 16, the sleeve 18, and, when used, the cap 60 may be secured together by straps in a collapsed configuration.

Methods, devices, and systems for assembling a pallet are provided. In particular, a pallet is provided that is made from multiple pieces that are bent from an initial planar shape to a final shape. In some embodiments, a transverse piece locks at least one longitudinal piece in the final shape without the use of fasteners or adhesives. The resulting pallet can be loaded with materials and then maneuvered and transported using a forklift. In addition, the pieces can be made from cardboard which significantly reduces the weight of the pallet.

Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide a bin riser positionable between different types of shipping bins to enable these shipping bins to stably stack atop one another in a way that inhibits an adjacent stack of shipping bins from toppling over during transit.

A stackable pallet display system includes a tray portion having a rectangular bottom wall, corner posts extending upward from corners of the tray portion and an interior divider panel extending upward from the tray portion. The tray, corner posts and interior divider wall of the system can be folded from blanks of material.
