Catwalk fluid and ground protection recovery system
A removable fluid capturing system adapted for installation onto a support structure/frame located under an oil rig catwalk, said fluid capturing system comprising: an elongated trough adapted for insertion under an aperture located on said catwalk; means to secure said trough to structure of the catwalk wherein, upon use, the system is capable of collected fluid seeping from removed pipes through said aperture and directing the fluid to a catchment basin located at a position proximate said second end of the trough. Also disclosed are methods using such system.
PALLET
A platform comprising a deck, wherein the deck comprises a product supporting surface for supporting an article thereon. The deck is defined by a plurality of sidewalls which extend from a periphery of the product supporting surface. The platform further comprises an attachment feature arrangement disposed along one or more of the sidewalls. The attachment feature arrangement comprises an inner slot and an outer recess. The inner slot and the outer recess are disposed adjacent one another and separated by a divider. The inner slot comprises one or more inwardly-facing projections, and the outer recess comprises one or more outwardly-facing projections. The projections extend from the divider and are configured to engage a corresponding projection-engaging feature of the article supported by the product supporting surface.
PALLET
There is disclosed a pallet component comprising a support portion and an attachment portion. The attachment portion extends from the support portion and is defined, at least in part, by a perimeter wall. The perimeter wall surrounds one or more internal chambers. The attachment portion is configured to engage a corresponding attachment portion of another pallet component. The one or more internal chambers comprises at least one device chamber configured to at least partially receive an electronic device therein. One or more walls of the attachment portion comprises one or more cut-outs which define, at least in part, a fluid pathway between the at least one device chamber and atmosphere.
Reusable bin assembly
A bin assembly including: a container having a base and sidewalls extending upwardly and outwardly from the base; at least one locking portion disposed on the base; a pallet; and at least one locking mechanism disposed on the pallet, complementary to the at least one locking portion, wherein relative rotation between the container and the pallet engages or disengages the at least one locking portion and at least one locking mechanism to respectively lock or unlock the pallet and the container.
REUSABLE BIN ASSEMBLY
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.
Transport platform including adapter elements
An adapter element and a transport platform, such as a dolly (1), including at least one such adapter element (5), said at least one adapter element (5) being connected or connectable to the dolly (1) and having a rim portion (6) protruding from a deck (2) of the dolly (1) for restraining loads placed on top of the deck (2) at least in a lateral direction, wherein the at least one adapter element (5) is provided with one or more legs (8, 12; 8, 12, 17,.18) each comprising an engagement portion (9, 13; 9;13, 19, 20), preferably tabs or protrusions, for being received and snap-fitted into a corresponding opening (10, 15) provided in the deck (2). An outer leg (12) of the one or more legs (8, 12; 8, 12, 17, 18) is formed as a tab or tongue having a through hole (13) which serves as an engagement portion of the outer leg (12).
Container
The container (10) has a lid structure (18) comprising two lid panels (20f) and (20t). The first lid panel (20t) forms at least a part of the top wall (14). The second lid panel 20f forms at least part of one of the side walls (16d). When the container (10) is in the erected condition the lid structure (18) can have one of, and be moved between, a closed configuration; top load configuration; and, front load configuration. The front load configuration has two variants. In a first front load configuration the first and second lid panels (20t) and (20f) remain connected to each other and are moved so that they are in a substantial face to face relationship. In the second front load configuration the second lid panel (20f) is pivoted to lie on top of the first lid panel (20t).
Bulk material shipping container top wall assembly and bulk material shipping container having a top wall assembly
Various embodiments provide a bulk material shipping container top wall assembly, and a bulk material shipping container including the top wall assembly, that provides various advantages over previously known commercially available bulk shipping material container top wall assemblies and bulk shipping material containers.
HYGIENIC PALLET AND METHODS OF USE AND MANUFACTURE
A hygienic pallet suitable for use in food manufacturing is formed of a food-grade material. The pallet comprises a load supporting surface extending between pallet edges. The pallet also comprises support lips that extend upward and away from the load supporting surface and in a direction away from a pallet edge. At least two support lips can be separated to form a channel between chamfered edges of the support lips. The support lips support molds or other objects on the load supporting surface during movement of the pallet, while the channels facilitate removal of debris and liquid during use or cleaning of the pallet. The pallet further comprises a section divider that divides stacking sections of the load supporting surface. Stackable molds for food manufacturing can be placed within the stacking areas to transport the mold stacks. A method of manufacturing the hygienic pallet comprises rotational molding.
Offshore cargo rack for use in transferring palletized loads between a marine vessel and an offshore platform
A cargo rack for transferring loads between a marine vessel and an offshore marine platform (for example, oil and gas well drilling or production platform) provides a frame having a base, a front, a rear, upper and lower end portions and side walls. The lower end of the frame has a floor. Openings in the base align with forklift tine tubes or sockets. The frame includes a pair of fixed side walls extending upwardly from the base that include at least left and right side walls. A plurality of gates are movably mounted on the frame including a gate at least at the front and at least at the rear of the frame, each gate being movable between open and closed positions. The gates enable a forklift to place loads on the floor by accessing either the front of the frame or the rear of the frame. Each gate can be pivotally attached to a corner column.
