Abstract: 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).

Abstract: A pallet system (50b) is formed from a pallet (10) and a plurality of panels (54a, 54b, 54c, 54t and 56). The pallet (10) has a base (12) configured to receive members of a lifting apparatus to enable lifting of the pallet (10). The panels (54a, 54b, 54c, 54t and 56) are coupled to each other and the pallet (10) to enable the panels to be moved between a closed configuration and an open configuration. In the closed configuration the panels can surround and contain one or more articles on the pallet (10). In the open configuration one of the panels is positioned to provide an opening to enable transfer of an article through the opening onto or off of the pallet (10) in a direction substantially parallel to a plane of the pallet (10).

Abstract: A parts washer having a cleaning chamber and a receptacle into which parts to be cleaned are placed. The receptacle is rotatably mounted within the cleaning chamber and is rotated by a drive device. One or more spray manifolds are provided, each having a plurality of spray jets arranged to spray cleaning fluid onto the parts in the receptacle. The spray manifolds are moveably mounted within the cleaning chamber and are coupled to the drive device such that the drive device causes reciprocating motion of the spray manifolds.

Abstract: A parts washer comprises a cabinet defining a washing chamber and a tank for holding a volume of liquid. A fluid communication path extends between the tank and a discharge valve. During a normal wash cycle, cleaning fluid is drawn from the tank, passes through the communication path, and is returned to a manifold within the washing chamber to clean articles held therein. A separator is in fluid communication with the tank and separates contaminants from the liquid to produce clean liquid that flows back to the tank. A drain system allows draining of the separator to the tank and comprises a drain valve in fluid communication between the separator and a tank. An actuator system is coupled with the discharge valve and the drain valve to open the drain valve allowing the separator to drain to the tank and, opening the discharge valve allowing the tank (and thus the separator) to be purged via the discharge valve.

Abstract: A water evaporation apparatus 10 for evaporating water 12 contained in a drum 14 includes a thermally insulated float assembly 16 for floating in the water 12. The float assembly defines a space 18 which is in fluid communication with the water 12 via a hole 22 formed though a bottom wall 24 of the float assembly 16. The float assembly 16 also includes an exhaust stack 26 which extends from the space 18 and has a discharge end 28 located outside the drum 14. A volume of water 20 flows into space 18 through the hole 22. A heater 30 is located within the space 18 and below the level of the water 20 for causing evaporation thereof. This generates steam and other vapours which rise through the stack 26 and are vented through discharge end 28. As the water 20 is evaporated it is replenished by water 12 from the drum 14 flowing through the hole 22 into the space 18. In this way, the water 12 within the drum 14 is progressively evaporated.
