The present disclosure is also directed to the holding of one or more loads of items including building materials and/or other items during transport to one or more target surfaces including one or more elevated surfaces. The present disclosure is also directed to the holding of one or more loads of items including building materials and/or other items on one or more target surfaces including one or more elevated surfaces.

A bin assembly includes a container and a pallet. The container has a base and sidewalls that extend upwardly and outwardly from the base. The base includes a centrally disposed alignment means and at least one spaced apart locking portion. The pallet includes a centrally disposed alignment means that is complementary to the container alignment means and at least one spaced apart locking mechanism disposed on the pallet and that is complementary to the at least one spaced apart locking portion. The at least one spaced apart locking mechanism is configured to engage or disengage the at least one spaced apart locking portion upon relative rotation between the container and the pallet to respectively lock or unlock the pallet and the container.

Thermally insulated shipping system for use in transporting a pallet-sized payload. In one embodiment, the system includes a plurality of thermally insulating walls arranged to define an interior volume suitable for receiving a pallet-sized payload. The thermally insulating walls include a top wall, a bottom wall, a front wall, a rear wall, a left wall, and a right wall, of which all but the bottom wall include at least two slots facing towards the interior volume. One of the slots is an inner slot that is more proximal to the interior volume, and one of the slots is an outer slot that is more distal to the interior volume. The system also includes a plurality of inner cassettes disposed in at least some of the inner slots and a plurality of outer cassettes disposed in at least some of the outer slots. The inner and outer cassettes include phase-change materials.

A lift van crate formed as a rectilinear shaped compartment formed by a base; a first long wall having tabbed edges and a second long wall having tabbed edges, mounted to said base; a first short wall having tabbed edges and a second short wall having tabbed edges, mounted to said base, said first short wall and said second short wall having short wall receivers configured to receive at least one long wall interior tab of each of said respective adjacent first long wall and second long wall; a lid having an interior face and an exterior face, at least one lid receiver formed in said lid interior face, said lid configured to mount to each of said first long wall, second long wall, first short wall and said second short wall respectively by insertion of said tabbed edges into said at least one lid receiver.

The disclosure relates to a transportation unit for transporting a plurality of coils. This transportation unit provides an easy transportation and an easy to handle system wherein the respective load of coils which can be shipped can be increased. The transportation unit comprises a palette, and a plurality of bags stacked in layers on the palette, wherein each of the bags contains a plurality of coils arranged in a first layer such that centers of the coils in the first layer are arranged parallel with respect to each other such that an axial direction of the center of each coil in the first layer is approximately perpendicular to an extension direction of the palette. Further the disclosure relates to an assembly comprising a plurality of transport units.

An apparatus and methods are described for an improved pallet for the transportation and storage of goods. The pallet disclosed herein has four walls that are at least 4 inches tall that may be lowered to allow the efficient removal of goods off of the pallet. The wall may be used as a ramp to slide the goods off of the pallet. The walls may be locked in an upright position to ensure the goods are secured onto the pallet during transport or storage. When the goods are needed, one or more of the walls may be unlocked and lowered so that the goods do not have to be lifted over the wall to unload the goods from the pallet. The wall may also be in the lowered position to allow goods to be loaded onto to the pallet without having to lift them up and over the wall. The pallet also consists of nine feet that are at least 4 inches high, which minimizes the risk of forks missing the pallet opening when the forks are inserted to move 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 method for installing building panels, the method including forming a composite building panel from a plurality of panels, transporting the composite building panel to the site of installation and lifting the composite building panel by a lifting facility into position within a building.

Disclosed are a support unit and a floor plate. The support unit includes a first plate and a second plate which are spaced apart from each other, one end of the first plate is provided with a plurality of first ring walls at intervals, one end of second plate facing the first plate is provided with a plurality of second ring walls at intervals, the plurality of second ring walls are arranged corresponding to the plurality of first ring walls, each of the second ring walls is sleeved outside and matched with a respective one of the first ring walls to form a support structure that supports the first plate and the second plate.
