Stillage comprising similar containers in vertical stacked apart relationship to one another. The container includes a flat load carrying surface for carrying items and corner fittings having a collar for cooperatively engaging with one end of support legs to support the container. The support leg has an external plug provided with a pocket having this spaced side walls at one end and an internal cavity surrounded by an enlarged flange at the other end. The lower end of a spacer for spacing apart two containers is received in the pocket of the support and the other end of the spacer is received within the internal cavity of the support leg which is provided with a guide for guiding movement of the spacer to adopt and maintain the correct vertical orientation to form a stable array of vertically stacked containers. The advantage of the stillage formed using the support leg and spacer is that a stable stacked array is formed enabling safe transport of items in the containers without risk of damage to the items.

A foldable crate includes a base having a front end and a rear end and a pair of end gates, wherein an end gate is rotatably attached to each end of the base. Each end gate includes a cap attached adjacent to one end of each post of the end gate and a knob is attached adjacent to the opposing end of each post. A skid shoe is attached to the bottom of each corner of the base, wherein each skid shoe includes a socket for receiving the knob or cap of the corresponding end gate of an adjacent foldable crate when a plurality of foldable crates are stacked.

A container for holding product therein during shipment and being returned for reuse has guides containing generally L-shaped slotted tracks having horizontal and vertical portions. A plurality of dunnage supports extend between the tracks. Dunnage is suspended by the dunnage supports. The dunnage supports have narrowed portions engaged with the slotted tracks.

A pallet for transporting a plurality of differently shaped parts is disclosed. The pallet including a rectangular base having a planar top surface, the top surface having a plurality of holes arranged thereon in a round staggered configuration, a bottom support connected to the underside of the rectangular base, each ski located along the underside of an edge of the rectangular bed, four rectangular pillars located at the four corners of the rectangular base and extending upwardly.

A collapsible crate for transporting goods, the crate having an upstanding wall, at least a portion of which is movable, locating feature and releasable locking feature for releasably securing the movable wall portion relative to the crate, wherein the locating feature has a projection receivable within a recess or aperture to align, in use, the movable wall portion relative to the crate such that the movable wall portion is releasably securable by the locking feature.

An insulating container comprises a container body and a container cover connected to the container body. The container both and the container cover each comprises a frame and a plate arranged on the frame. The plate comprises, from inside out, an external high strength sheet, an extruded polystyrene sheet, phase-change insulating sheets made of phase-change material, and an internal sheet. A phase-change process of the phase-change insulating sheets cooperates with a refrigeration system of the transportation device to precisely control the temperature of the insulating container and a refrigerator truck to be near a phase-change temperature. In the present disclosure, the phase-change insulating sheets made of the phase-change material remain to be in a solid state before or after occurrence of a phase change, so that the structure of the insulating container does not change with the phase change and a leakage problem of the phase-change material does not exist.

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.

A packaging system for radioactive waste is robust, highly functional, and can be used for nearly all radioactive waste streams that require shielded packaging. The packaging system includes a modular container that is configured to receive modular shielding inserts. The packaging system can be used to store, transport, and dispose of radioactive waste.

The present device and system provide rigid, stackable storage and transportation platforms. Vertical posts interconnecting side and end beams incorporate upper and lower connection pin plates. In use, these pin plates allow connection of the platform to transport means or stacked connection to other platforms using ISO lock pins. Cross beams extending between the side beams provide additional strength.

A rack and a method of assembling the rack are disclosed that includes guard plates welded to right and left sides of a tubular frame. Each guard plate includes a fixed bushing. A locking bar pivots on pivot bushings provided on right and left swing arms. Right and left pins are assembled into one of the fixed and pivot bushings with a head of each pin contacting one pivot bushing, and a shaft of each pin being welded to the fixed bushing.
