Abstract: A container includes a container body having a base and walls extending upward from the base to define a container interior and an open upper end. A lid extends over at least a portion of the upper end of the container body. The lid is movable between an open position and a closed position. A latch selectively secures the lid in the closed position. The latch includes a first latched position and a second latched position, which may be more secure than the first latched position. The lid may be a primary lid or a secondary, sub-lid within the primary lid.

Abstract: A pallet assembly includes an upper portion and a lower portion. The upper portion includes an upper deck for supporting items thereon and upper column portions extending downward from the upper deck.

The lower portion includes a plurality of lower column portions including a first lower column portion. The first lower column portion includes a peripheral wall and a support structure having a pair of walls extending inward from the peripheral wall. One of the first upper column portion and the first lower column portion is received within the other, with the support structure received in the slot between the slot walls.

Abstract: A keg delivery system includes a rack having a plurality of bays for receiving kegs horizontally. The keg delivery system also includes means for controllably lowering a keg from one of the bays to a floor.

Abstract: A collapsible container includes a base and a plurality of walls pivotable between an upright position and a collapsed position on the base. A first wall includes an opening therethrough. A first door selectively covers the opening through the first wall. In one embodiment, the first door is slidable between an open, retracted position away from the opening and a closed position covering the opening.

Abstract: A dolly includes a base having a pair of spaced apart side walls and an end wall connecting the side walls. Casters supporting the side walls and end wall. In one embodiment, a spreader bar assembly is pivotably connected to the dolly to permit a user to selectively connect the dolly to another dolly, such that a pallet could be supported at each end by one of the dollies.

Abstract: A container includes a body having base wall and a side wall extending upward from the base wall. The body includes a bracket portion having an elongated slot. An axle extends through the elongated slot. The axle is slidable in the elongated slot between a deployed position and a retracted position. A wheel is connected proximate one end of the axle. A clip secures the axle within the elongated slot.

Abstract: A cart according includes a frame for supporting a container. A pedal is connected to the frame. An arm for opening a lid of the container is supported by the frame. Linkage connects the arm to the pedal, so that when the pedal is depressed, the arm lifts open the lid of the container. Existing container designs can be used with the cart. The pedal and arm can be used to lift open the lid of the existing container. The existing containers can easily be removed and replaced on the cart.
