Abstract: A cross bar forming a support surface between parallel deck beams of rack-type storage systems to create storage shelves, the cross bars being lockable and readily removable and reusable.

Abstract: A beam and column connector connects a beam to a column in structural support systems, such as storage racks. The beam and column connector has a body portion which is securely connected to the end of the beam. The body portion of the beam and column connector has a shape which conforms to the shape of the beam. The beam and column connector also has a column mounting portion which extends from the body portion. The column mounting portion allows the beam and column connector to be securely connected to the column. The beam and column connector can be used with a wide variety of beams and columns. The beam and column connector can provide a strong and safe connection between the beam and the column.

Abstract: A reinforced rack truss base to protect against damage to a rack truss storage system is provided.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a pallet storage system including a cart that rides on rails between an open or access position and a closed or storage position. More particularly, the present invention relates to a storage device that facilitates the picking of individual cases or items from pallets that are stored on the floor under a rack type storage structure. The device of the present invention enables two-deep storage of pallets on the floor and the automatic presentation of a rear pallet to the access aisle for easy picking of items stored on the pallet using a cart that cantilevers from the end of the rails.

Abstract: The present inventions provide self-supporting drawer type storage carts for the storage of pallets or other loads, including heavy and relatively fragile loads, that may be smoothly moved between an open or forward position and a closed or rearward position.

Abstract: A rack truss for use in forming shelf-type storage racks which may be assembled at the site using bolts and/or which includes reinforcement at the lower level of the rack truss.

Abstract: A container pick and return system is provided having a two-tiered flow rail conveyor system that includes an inclined upper set of feed flow rails forming an input conveyor assembly and a lower set of inclined return flow rails forming an exit conveyor upon which a unit load may roll. At the front end of the system is a transfer conveyor assembly that receives a loaded container. The line worker may then operate a damper control pedal that permits the container to be positioned at any desired angle greater than the angle of the input conveyor. This permits enhanced accessibility of the contents of the container regardless of the height or arm length of the line worker or the size and shape of the container contents. When the container is emptied by the line worker, the transfer conveyor assembly is triggered and the empty container is automatically lowered and transferred to the exit conveyor where it rolls down the exit conveyor to the rear of the system for reloading.
