Abstract: A lading support carrier for handling packaged goods in conjunction with an overhead conveyor, such as a monorail conveyor. Includes a support member suspendable in generally upright position from the conveyor and spaced apart, generally outstanding bars hingeable and detachably connected thereto to receive the goods such as package goods to be moved. Provision is made for suspending the support rack for movement along an overhead conveyor. The outstanding bars may be selectively hinged in aligned relation with respect to the upright support member to vary the space between any two extending support bars to accomodate larger packages or goods. All outwardly extending support bars may be hinged for greater convenience in handling and/or shipping. Where used in a food processing plant, the outstanding bars may be readily removed for sterilization and quickly replaced. The material from which the unit is made may be provided of substantially corrosion proof and impermeable material.

Abstract: A support rack for handling packaged goods in conjunction with an overhead conveyor, such as a suspended monorail conveyor. An upright member has spaced apart, outstanding bars hingeable and detachably connected thereto to receive the goods to be moved, preferably packaged goods. Provision is made for attaching the entire unit to an overhead conveyor. The outstanding bars may be selectively hinged upward in the same plane and in aligned relation with respect to the upright support member to vary the space between the normally outwardly extending support bars to accommodate larger packages or goods of greater size, or all outwardly extending support bars may be hinged upwardly for greater convenience in handling and/or shipping. If used in a food processing plant, the outstanding bars may be readily removed for sterilization and quickly replaced. The material from which the unit is made may be rust proof metal, metal treated against rust or metal coated to prevent rust.
