A modular repair kit for repairing damaged pallet rack frames and a method of installation thereof which incudes modular elements that can be customized by mechanical process such as cutting, drilling and connecting, for example, by bolts, that avoids major modifications, such as welding, at the installation site. The modular repair kit utilizes a standard replacement post assembly that can be cut to fit into nearly any size gap that is created when the damaged portion of the pallet rack frame is removed. The remaining elements of the repair kit can then be customized to accommodate any size of the standard replacement post assembly.

A system for dismantling a pallet includes a feed system configured to convey the pallet along a direction of travel. The feed system has a measuring station and a staging area. The measuring station is configured to obtain dimensions of the pallet. A saw is configured to dismantle the pallet. A manipulator includes a robotic arm. The manipulator is configured to move the pallet from the staging area to the saw for dismantling.

The invention concerns a robot cell (1) comprising a multi axis robot arm (3), which terminates in a gripper (4) arranged to handle a pallet (2), and a sawing device (10), which is arranged to separate a nailed pallet part from a pallet (2) handled by said gripper (4). The sawing device (10) comprises a saw blade immersed in a liquid bath, which is contained in a trough (11) of the sawing device (10), such that separation of said nailed pallet part is performed in a liquid environment.

A removal tool including a frame having a first side and a second side defining a longitudinal direction therebetween and a first end and a second end defining a transverse direction therebetween, a pivotable separating mechanism and a stopping mechanism is disclosed. The removal tool may be adapted to remove a portion of a pallet. The pivotable separating mechanism may include a first position and a second position. When the pivotable separating mechanism is moved from the first position to the second position the pivotable separating mechanism is adjusted from a first angle relative to the ground to a second angle relative to the ground. The second angle may be greater than the first angle.

The present invention relates to a device for the removal of a pallet jack's load wheel pins. Where said invention is comprised of a hydraulic jack secured in a horizontal position within a frame assembly. A tooling adapter is fitted on the end of the piston rod so that the piston rod may push against the pallet jack's load wheel pin when the piston rod is extended. The frame assembly is slid underneath the forks of the pallet jack and the hydraulic jack's piston rod is aligned with the pallet jack load wheel pins that are to be removed. When the hydraulic jack is activated, the piston rod pushes against the pallet jack's load wheel pins pushing them out from the load wheel allowing the load wheel to be removed from the pallet jack's fork. Large extension springs are mounted on the underside of the frame assembly and are attached to piston rod to return the piston rod to the hydraulic jack once the load wheel pins are removed.

A method and a device are provided for replacing individual idler rollers for conveyors, with which a web belt can be lifted and worn-out or damaged idler rollers in upper and lower runs can be individually replaced. The device includes, separately for replacing the idler rollers in the upper run and in the lower run, a subframe (1) for lifting the web belt (7) and for holding the web belt (7), such that a sufficient clearance is formed for replacing worn-out idler rollers (53) by means of a changing frame (2). A service vehicle is equipped with a lifting apparatus for moving dividing devices. The process steps include lifting the web belt (7), removing the old idler roller (53.sup.old), inserting the new idler roller (53.sup.new) and lowering the web belt (7). The drawing shows the use of two dividing devices in the replacing of idler rollers in the upper run.

A pallet dismantling system includes a pallet that has a frame, a plurality of slats and a plurality of nails. Each of the nails extends through slats and engages the frame to fasten the slats on the frame. A tool is provided to disassemble the pallet and the tool includes a slot. The tool is selectively inserted between a selected one of the slats and the frame. Additionally, a selected one of the nails is positioned in the slot. The tool is urged to lift the selected slat from the frame. Moreover, the tool inhibits the nail from splintering the selected slat when the selected slat is removed from the frame.
