Disclosed herein is a pallet that includes a carriage rest and a ramp. The pallet can include one or more running boards and can comprise a wheel chock. The disclosed pallets can include a bump stop to prevent equipment from rolling out of position. The disclosed pallets can also include supports and tiedown buckles. The disclosed pallets are useful to allow easy vertical storage of equipment, particularly rolling equipment.

Assembled and combined pallet constitutes of supporting beams and skids wherein: the supporting beams are made of the hollow metal section bar and the supporting beams are equipped with the grooves along its length direction on the top; the skids are set with inserting blocks at the bottom in relation to the grooves on the top of the supporting beams and inserting blocks are inserted into the grooves along the length direction of the grooves; the supporting beam is set with a locating lever in relation to the inserting block of each skid, and the inserting block of each skid is set with a locking hole in relation to the locating lever and the locating level passes through the corresponding locking hole of the inserting block to lock the skid. The skid connection and supporting beam is reliable and the disassembly and assembly during the use is convenient and fast.

An apparatus for storing, transporting and dispensing conveyor belts is described. The apparatus, in the form of a crate, has top and bottom conventional pallets, allowing for easy handling and strength for additional stacked crates. The center of the crate holds a hub assembly that moves rotationally, and allows smooth transition from consecutive layers of the conveyor belt wrapped thereon. During shipment, the roll of conveyor belt lies on its side. In one embodiment, a center pipe axle of the spool passes through holes in the top and bottom pallets. Alternatively, the center pipe axle passes through channels created between planks of the top and bottom pallets. These configurations secure the roll in the crate, and allow it to turn freely when loaded or unloaded.

An assemblable pallet is provided. The assemblable pallet mainly includes a plurality of top plates, a plurality of bottom plates, a plurality of upper support plates, a plurality of lower support plates, and a plurality of feet stacked correspondingly. The above plates are all sheets. Then a plurality of fasteners is inserted through corresponding fastening holes of the above plates and bent to be locked at the fastening holes. Thus the plurality of plates is combined to form a pallet which can be assembled and disassembled more easily and conveniently.

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 metal pallet (10) has a deck (12), a base (14) and a plurality of beams (16) therebetween. The deck (12), the base (14) and the beams (16) may be formed from lightweight sheet metal. The metal sheets are folded into the desired shape to respectively form the beams (16), and panels (18, 22) and slats (20, 32) for the deck (12) and the base (14). The panels (18, 22) and the slats (20, 32) are corrugated and the opposed side edges thereof may be folded upon themselves to provide for robust multi-ply edge constructions. Different types of corrugations may be provided over the panels (18, 22) and the slats (20, 32) to locally reinforce the pallet (10). The bottom portion of the beams (16) may be plastically deformed to create arched opening (58) to permit side entry of pallet handling equipment. The plastically deformed regions (60) of the beams (16) may be configured to improve the mechanical properties of the beam while providing maximal clearance for pallet handling equipment.

A rack for simultaneously processing a plurality of parts includes a frame, a plurality of defined locations on the frame for receiving and holding individual parts for processing and a latching assembly for locking the parts to the frame in the defined locations. The rack further includes a security feature for indicating if the latching assembly is opened after the parts have been loaded and locked into the defined locations on the frame.

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 container for holding product therein during shipment and being returned for reuse has a frame, tracks supported by opposite sides of the frame, and a plurality of dunnage supports extending between the tracks. At least one of the tracks on each side is generally U-shaped and at least one is linear. Each dunnage support may comprise end members and a middle member, the end members being movable along the tracks. The dunnage supports support dunnage for supporting products for storage or shipment.

Described is a pallet including a base having a length extending between a first end and a second end opposite the first end and a width transverse to the length; and a cage removably coupled to the base.
