Abstract: A pipe float is configured for receiving a pipe therein and providing buoyancy for maintaining the pipe along the surface of a body of water. The pipe float has an inner surface presenting a central passage adapted for receiving the pipe, the inner surface including a plurality of preferably substantially planar, longitudinally extending panels which provide a continuous inner surface. Adjacent panels are angularly oriented relative to one another, and the pipe float is preferably provided as a plurality of pipe float sections assembled together whereby one panel of a pipe float section is preferably oriented at an obtuse angle to an adjacent panel of that pipe float section. The panels may be of different transverse dimensions whereby the passage has a greater transverse dimension G which is substantially greater than a smaller transverse dimension S, with the outer diameter D of the pipe received in the passage being of a value equal to or smaller than G and greater than or equal to S.

Abstract: A container includes a pallet base having a rectangular deck and support portions extending downward from an underside of the deck and a channel extending into an upper surface of the deck along edges of the deck. A sidewall defines a corrugated rectangular wall having four sides and setting into the channel in the pallet. Magnets are embedded into two sections of the sidewall to attract and retain the sections together. A cover fits over the sidewall. Alignment portions are formed in the channel and complementary alignment portions are formed in the bottom of the sidewall for aligning the sidewall with the pallet base. The pallet base includes intersecting strap receiving portions formed in an underside of the pallet base and the cover includes intersecting strap receiving portions formed on a top portion of the cover. The sidewall may be a see through material to provide for viewing contents from outside the container.
