A pallet container includes a bottom, side walls that extend from the bottom upwards, widening conically and/or in stages, towards a peripheral container edge, and skids that allow a fork of a forklift truck or other industrial truck to be inserted. The bottom and the side walls are shaped such that the pallet container can be nested in an identical pallet container oriented the same way and can be stacked on an identical pallet container that has been rotated relative to the pallet container by 180° only in relation to a vertical axis. The outer contour of the skids aligns with the outer contour of the side walls.

A container has a bottom and side walls extending from the bottom towards a circumferential container edge. The container edge is provided with a damping portion on at least one container corner. The damping portion is designed and adapted to at least partially dissipate an impact acting on the container corner while undergoing elastic and/or plastic deformation.

The invention is directed to a flexible and collapsible extended-length bulk bin. The bulk bin includes two molded plastic end pieces that are connected at each side to each by metal rails. A bottom panel and two side wall panels are also positioned between the two molded plastic end pieces.

A molded container assembly includes a pallet, a molded container, and a plurality of connection systems. The pallet supports the molded container thereon and includes stacking alignment structure for stacking the pallet on another molded container assembly. The molded container includes a tank portion, several leg supports, several buttresses, and several horizontally extending ribs. The tank portion includes several curved sidewalls and a fill opening. The leg supports include lower and upper sections that extend above the fill opening for spacing a pallet stacked on top of the molded container above the fill opening. The upper sections include pallet engaging structure for engaging pallets of at least two different types. The horizontally extending ribs minimize outward deflection due to hydrostatic loading and/or pressurization. The connection systems include washers that allow for shrinkage and expansion between the molded container and the pallet in a number of directions.

The invention is directed to an integrated plastic tray and pallet system. The system includes a molded plastic pallet having an upper surface with tray components integrally formed with the remainder of the pallet extending upward from the upper surface. A plurality of pallet feet extend downward from a lower surface of the pallet. The pallet also includes side walls extending upward from the periphery of the upper surface. The system may include additional pallet and integrated tray structures without the pallet feet, and a top cap.

An intermediate bulk container (IBC) system including a base and walls, and having an interior space. The system comprises a drain in the base or in a wall, a liner bag having a liner bag drain couplable to the drain in the base or in a wall, and a door coupled to the wall by a hinge and shaped to cover an opening in the wall. The opening extends from a top of the wall. The hinge is coupled to the door to allow the door to rotate into the interior space. A stop prevents the door from rotating beyond the wall. The system may be used by rotating the door into the interior space to expose the opening, reaching through the opening and operatively coupling the liner bag drain at the drain in the base or in a wall, and rotating the door to cover the opening.

The present invention discloses a novel form of a reusable pallet tent that is used to transport goods, like (small) boxes, on different types of pallets, is portable and foldable and can be used on if types of pallets. The tent is waterproof, has a UV-resistant coating and with scratch-resistant material it is durable and long lasting The said pallet tent has only one opening on the side, which is closed with two zippers from bottom to top. For use, the tent is placed on a pallet and before the goods are stacked inside the tent. When solidity for the small goods is needed, the zippers are raised a little by little to close the tent completely. The said tent is beneficial in that it is reusable and foldable so that it can be piled up for transportation. The material used in making the said tent re solid to ensure that the tent is durable and long lasting. Further, the invention is friendly to environment in that the tent is designed to transport higher volumes of goods at the same time inside a truck. This lowers CO2 emissions as well as lower use of plastic foil to seal a pallet and lower use of cardboard boxes that need to be recycled.

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.

A modular pallet system utilizes a plurality of modular pallets that are configured to engage along sides of the pallet to form an interconnected array of coupled pallets that may be moved by a pallet truck and wherein the individual pallets are configured for detachment and transport with a hand-truck. A quad array of coupled pallets may be formed that is about a conventional pallet size and configured to receive the two forks of a fork truck into fork truck openings. One of the modular pallets of the quad array of coupled pallets may be disengaged or disconnected by use of a hand-truck, wherein the tongue of the hand-truck extends in the fork truck opening between the feet of a pallet and engages with hand-truck notches configured on feet. An interconnecting feature of a modular pallet may include a dovetail and dovetail recess.

This application discloses a foldable container. The foldable container has a base and two pairs of opposite side plates. The side plates are hinged to the base. Adjacent side plates are capable of being engaged with each other through engaging structures and being locked with each other through locking mechanisms to form a container body. At least one of the side plates is arranged such that when being unlocked from an adjacent side plate, it can be rotated towards the inner side of the container body and can be also rotated towards the outer side of the container body relative to the base. At least one side plate of the foldable container in this application can be rotated towards the inner side of the container body and can be rotated towards the outer side of the container body, and can be removed after being rotated, thereby greatly facilitate accessing goods, especially bulky and heavy goods.
