A platform includes a top deck with spaced apart platform support leg openings extending therethrough, and platform support legs extending from a lower surface of the top deck and aligned with the platform support leg openings. Each platform support leg includes an upper portion and a lower portion, with the upper portion having an opening extending therethrough and aligned with a respective one of the platform support leg openings in the top deck. The lower portion includes a shelf that separates the opening in the upper portion from the lower portion. The shelf provides support to a bottom surface of a platform support leg from an identical platform when stacked thereon. A pair of extensions extend outwards from a bottom surface of the lower portion, with the opening in the upper portion providing clearance for the pair of extensions on the platform support leg of the identical platform when stacked thereon.

A pallet comprises a pallet arrangement which comprises a carrier arrangement (1) for carrying at least one item and a runner arrangement connected to the carrier arrangement (1) for providing support with respect to a support surface. It further comprises at least one in particular profile-like reinforcement element (13, 20), which is non-detachably connected to the pallet arrangement, for reinforcing the pallet arrangement at least in regions.

Disclosed herein is a packaging kit. The kit includes a pallet having a top support surface and fork lift apertures. The kit also includes a base having an enclosed volume sized so the pallet fits within the enclosure volume. The kit also includes side walls each being smaller in area than the top support surface of the pallet. The kit includes a plurality of joint supports with each of the plurality of joint supports configured to couple at least two side walls together providing support across the joints between the side walls. A coupler is provided that is configured to attach the base to the pallet. A cap is provided that is configured to slide down over top of the base substantially enclosing the enclosed volume between the base and the cap. The pallet, side walls, joint supports, and coupler fit within the enclosed volume. The packaging kit is also expandable to be assembled as a packaging system with a container positioned on the pallet.

The present invention provides a thinner, movable load bearing structure having indentations, grooves, valleys, channels or other similar depressions on its underside. These depressions are mated with corresponding features for improved loading bearing capabilities. The load bearing structures also includes roughened side edges for improving the strength of the edges. The load bearing structure may be a dunnage platform or a container for storing and/or shipping cargo.

A pipe coil lifting device includes a superstructure with a central longitudinal member and at least two supports attached to opposite sides of the central longitudinal member, with two channels at the outside long-edges of the superstructure attached to the supports, with a convex upper surface attached to the supports of the superstructure.

The present invention discloses an equal-fork pallet comprising a pallet body, wherein the pallet body is provided with a stand structure and a reinforcing structure, the reinforcing structure is a reinforcing rib embodied by a groove structure pressed on the surface of the pallet body, and the reinforcing rib comprises a connection type reinforcing rib and a semi-partition type reinforcing rib, the stand structure comprises a corner stand, an edge stand and a center stand, and neither end of the partition type reinforcing rib is connected to the stand. The present invention has a reasonable structural design and strong pressure bearing capacity, with targeted layout and design of the reinforcing rib centralized position and stress concentration position such as stand. It can overcome the problems of the prior art, such as low local compressive strength of the pallet, proneness to produce stress fracture and local cracking, etc.

A pallet includes a deck and one or more leg-plank bridges that extend from the deck. The leg-plank bridges include one or more legs and a plank that extends between the legs. The legs and plank are integrally formed together and attached to the deck. The legs have one or more internal walls that define one or more cavities. Concrete fills the cavities of the legs located on a lead end of the pallet. The remaining cavities in the legs are filled with foam. The cavities in one version are wedge shaped. Other legs of the deck are filled entirely with foam.

A pallet includes a top deck that includes a product support surface and an opposing underside, and with the product support surface including a pair of pallet support leg receiving areas. A pair of pallet support legs is on the underside of the top deck and aligned with the pallet support leg receiving areas. Each pallet support leg including a center leg section having a first end adjacent the underside of the top deck and a second end opposite the first end, and a pair of leg extensions extending outwards from the second end of the center leg section. An underside of the center leg section and the pair of leg extensions are configured to engage one of the pallet support leg receiving areas of an identical pallet when stacked thereon.

A reconfigurable pallet/dolly platform includes a top deck that includes a product support surface and an opposing underside. The underside includes pallet support leg attachment areas for receiving pallet support legs when configured as a pallet, and dolly wheel attachment areas for receiving dolly wheels when configured as a dolly. The product support surface includes pallet support leg receiving areas aligned with the pallet support leg attachment areas and configured to engage the pallet support legs from an identical platform stacked thereon when configured as a pallet. The product support surface also includes dolly wheel receiving areas aligned with the dolly wheel wells and configured to engage the dolly wheels from an identical platform stacked thereon when configured as a dolly.

A method, system, apparatus, or device to support or move objects. The apparatus may include a substrate and a rib structure. The rib structure may be disposed at an interior portion of the substrate. The rib structure may include a first chamber extending downwardly from a first plane to a second plane. A wall of the first chamber may taper inwardly to form a first inverted dome. The rib structure may include a second chamber extending downwardly from the first plane to the second plane to form a second inverted dome. A wall of the second chamber may taper inwardly to form a first inverted dome.
