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.

An assembled plastic pallet is provided in the disclosure, which includes a panel and a plurality of support legs detachably arranged at a lower side of the panel. A metal reinforcement is embedded in the panel, each of the plurality of support legs is in a cuboid, four sides of each of the plurality of support legs is recessed inward to form a first groove, four sides of each of the plurality of support legs is formed with a reinforcing rib, and the reinforcing rib is smoothly transitioned to a bottom of the first groove with an arc. An assembled plastic pallet provided in this disclosure can be freely assembled as required and has high bearing capacity.

A method of assembling a pallet using a machine includes folding a first portion of a pallet support column to define a vertical support structure. The method further includes folding a second portion of the pallet support column to engage the vertical support structure. The method further includes gluing at least a portion of the second portion to the first portion. The method further includes coupling the pallet support column to at least one of a bottom member or a top member of the pallet.

The invention relates to a system comprising at least one lightweight pallet and multiple similarly designed containers. Each container has four side walls and container base. The system includes stacking pins as separate components. The pallet features an upper deck with a bearing surface, supported by feet and/or runners, and incorporates first stacking pin receivers. Each container base is provided with at least one second stacking pin receiver. These receivers are dimensioned for insertion of a stacking pin, allowing a container to be securely fixed to the pallet. The stacking pin can be stably arranged in two positions: in the first, it engages the first receiver on the container's side while protruding over the bearing surface to engage the second receiver; in the second, it is countersunk in the first receiver, forming a clamping fit with the upper deck or its thread.

A pallet includes an upper structure and a lower structure. The upper structure includes an upper deck and a plurality of upper column portions projecting downward from the upper deck. The lower structure includes a plurality of lower column portions. The upper column portions and the lower column portions are configured such that the upper deck is configured at first height when the upper structure is secured to the lower structure in a first orientation and the upper deck is configured at a second height when the upper structure is secured to the lower structure at a second orientation. Optionally, the upper deck of the pallet includes a plurality of perimeter regions into which a desired one of a plurality of inserts can be secured to produce pallets with different perimeter options.
