Patent number: 8056488Abstract: A pallet assembly includes an upper deck and a lower deck spaced by a plurality of columns. The weight of the pallet is reduced without significant reduction in strength by providing only a single cross beam in each of the upper and lower reinforcement members and orienting them perpendicular to one another. The reinforcement members are minimized for weight reduction and for improved performance in heat tests. The peripheral rail of the upper reinforcement member is reduced such that it rests on only an inwardly open recess on an inner corner of each of the corner columns. This reduces the size and weight of the upper reinforcement member, while still providing support to the upper deck. Additionally, the peripheral rails of both the upper and lower decks are reduced in length such that either ledge does not directly support them while the pallet is stored on a rack.Type: GrantFiled: December 8, 2009Date of Patent: November 15, 2011Assignee: Rehrig Pacific CompanyInventors: William P. Apps, Justin M. Smyers, Trenton M. Overholt

Patent number: 7604309Abstract: An automatic release retaining mechanism of a slide includes a locating member, an elastic member, and a retaining member operating in conjunction with a first rail and a second rail. The second rail passes through and slides on the first rail. The locating member and the elastic member are disposed on the second rail. The retaining member is disposed on the first rail. The elastic member applies pressure upon the locating member. The locating member holds against the retaining member to temporarily secure the second rail when the second rail slides and extends in relation to the first rail. The second rail is automatically released to be retracted into the first rail when the second rail is pushed into the first rail.Type: GrantFiled: January 19, 2006Date of Patent: October 20, 2009Assignee: King Slide Works Co., Ltd.Inventors: Ken-Ching Chen, Shih-Ling Hwang, Shun-Ho Yang, Chun-Chiang Wang

Patent number: 5809902Abstract: A pallet includes a pair of rails with inner side surfaces that have mortises formed therein near their top surface and are arranged facing each other. Load deck boards extend between the rails and have ends that substantially correspond to the mortises. The boards are inserted into the mortises to form a mortise joint. Fixing members formed of integral legs conform to the outer surfaces of the rails. A flange extends from each leg along its length and in a direction such that one of the flanges can be inserted into a longitudinal groove formed in an outer side surface of a rail and another flange can be inserted into another corresponding groove that is formed in the top surface of the rail and in the boards, thus securing the boards to the rails. The flanges of the fixing member are removable from the grooves, and the boards are removable from the mortises to permit disassembly of the pallet.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 1996Date of Patent: September 22, 1998Inventor: Mats Zetterberg
