Abstract: The present invention comprises an adaptable transfer conveyor for the storage and movement of goods. One embodiment of the invention includes an adaptable transfer structure for conveying a load from a first location to a second location. The adaptable transfer structure can include at least one profile capable of supporting a wheel assembly, and a plurality of wheel assemblies capable of conveying a load. Each wheel assembly can include an axle with at least one end capable of mounting to the at least one profile, at least one wheel rotatably mounted to the axle, wherein the at least one wheel is capable of contacting a portion of the load. The wheel assembly can also include a spring capable of maintaining the position of the respective wheel assembly with the at least one profile, and further capable of permitting the manual removal of the respective wheel assembly from the at least one profile when the spring is compressed against either the at least one wheel or the at least one profile.

Abstract: A pallet brake track assembly for use in an inclined pallet flow system to maintain slow movement of descending loaded pallets and including, in its most preferred embodiment, first and second frame members extending in parallel to form an extended inner channel, a plurality of inner axles transversely connected between the first and second frame members and located within the extended inner channel, a plurality of inner wheels rotatably mounted on the plurality of inner axles, a plurality of inner cylindrical spacers with axial slits for snap-on assembly coaxially connected around the plurality of inner axles, a brake apparatus located at least partially within the extended inner channel and including a support assembly connected to the first and second frame members and a cylindrical brake drum with a rubber contact surface rotatably connected to the support assembly, a plurality of outer axles connected to at least one of the first and second frame members adjacent to the brake apparatus, each of the outer
