Patent number: 11767046Abstract: A novel logistics system is disclosed involving a roll container (100) with a base (110) and two elongated supports (120) that are supported by the base (110). The supports each have a plurality of individual slots (122) provided in a spaced apart configuration along the supports (120) for receiving a tab (133, 134) of a respective plurality of shelves (130) in a spaced apart configuration. The roll container may further include a folding mechanism between the base and the supports for turning the supports between an operational state and a folded state. In the operational state of the roll container the supports extend transversally in respect to the base. In the folded state of the roll container the supports extend parallel to the base.Type: GrantFiled: June 18, 2021Date of Patent: September 26, 2023Assignee: K.

Patent number: 10364065Abstract: A logistics system, adaptor pallet and load carrier are proposed for transporting many load carriers at once. The novel logistics system includes at least one load carrier and an adaptor pallet for receiving a plurality of such load carriers. The adaptor pallet includes a detent, which has a deployed configuration, in which the detent is configured to prevent lateral movement of the at least one load carrier, and a released configuration, in which the detent is configured to allow lateral movement of the at least one load carrier. The logistics system also includes a locking interface having a first counterpart fixed to the adaptor pallet and a second counterpart provided to the at least one load carrier. The first and second counterpart have been configured to engage each other, when the at least one load carrier is in the transporting position on the adaptor pallet so as to prevent rotation movement of the at least one load carrier in respect to the adaptor pallet.Type: GrantFiled: October 2, 2017Date of Patent: July 30, 2019Assignee: K.

Publication number: 20170361982Abstract: The present invention relates to storage and display device comprising a base wall and a side wall that are connected together and operable to move between a folded and an expanded configuration, the expanded configuration defining an interior region for the storage of product between the side wall and the base wall, and the side wall and the base wall are arranged to provide a top opening and a side opening to the interior region. The device comprises at least one locking arm arrangement comprising a pair of connected locking arms each having a side wall engaging locking surface and together operable to move between a locked configuration and an unlocked configuration in the expanded configuration of the device. The locking arm arrangement strengthens and provides considerable stability and rigidity to the device in the expanded configuration by preventing sideways movement or wobble of the side wall when of the device in the expanded configuration.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 10, 2015Publication date: December 21, 2017Applicant: K.

Publication number: 20170349013Abstract: The present invention provides a tow bar assembly, which may be retrofitted to a dolly while maintaining convenient space saving properties of permanently fitted tow bars. The novel tow bar assembly includes a tow bar, a shaft and a biasing member, such as a spring, biasing the tow bar towards an upright orientation about an axis of revolution. The shaft has a first end and a second end, which opposes the first end. The shaft connects the tow bar to the dolly from the ends so as to provide rotation of the tow bar in respect to the dolly about the axis of revolution. The shaft features an inner cavity, which extends along the axis of revolution. The biasing member is arranged into the cavity of the shaft and rotationally secured thereto. The shaft also features a first end plug at the first end of the shaft for enclosing the biasing member to the cavity. The first end plug rotationally locks the biasing member to the dolly.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 10, 2015Publication date: December 7, 2017Applicant: K. Hartwall Oy AbInventor: Jack Grönholm
