Abstract: According to a first aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a dolly featuring at least one wheel, an auto-engaging brake, and a release mechanism for selectively manipulating the auto-engaging brake from an applied state to a released state. The dolly further includes a tow bar which is connected to the release mechanism for operating the auto-engaging brake between the applied and released state.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: According to an example aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a novel caster assembly for a roll container (1000). The caster assembly has a caster (410) with a fork (411) as well as a pin (414). The pin (414) may be repeatedly attached to and removed from the fork (411) so as to attach the chassis (100) of the roll container (1000) to the fork (411). The pin (414) also acts as the hinge pin of a pivotable side wall (200) of said roll container (1000).

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: A logistics system, adaptor pallet and load carrier are proposed for transporting many load carriers at once. The novel logistics system (100) includes at least one load carrier (20) and an adaptor pallet (10) for receiving a plurality of such load carriers (20). The adaptor pallet (10) includes a detent (13), which has a deployed configuration, in which the detent (13) is configured to prevent lateral movement of the at least one load carrier (20), and a released configuration, in which the detent (13) is configured to allow lateral movement of the at least one load carrier (20). The logistics system (100) also includes a locking interface having a first counterpart (15) fixed to the adaptor pallet (10) and a second counterpart (23) provided to the at least one load carrier (20).

Abstract: An accessory shelf for a roll container. The shelf includes a pivoting mechanism provided to the first end of the shelf for pivoting the shelf relative to to a frame profile of a first wall of the roll container between a horizontal load carrying configuration and a vertical folding configuration. Included in the shelf is a locking mechanism provided to the second end of the shelf to rest the shelf in a load carrying orientation against a second wall of the roll container. The locking mechanism is configured to engage a horizontal element of the first wall to suspend the shelf from the horizontal element when the shelf is in the vertical folding configuration.

The locking mechanism is configured to engage a horizontal element of the first wall to suspend the shelf from the horizontal element, when the shelf is in the vertical folding configuration. The pivoting mechanism includes two slide members that oppose each other at the first end and are shaped to at least partly envelop a vertical section of a frame profile of the first wall of the roll container to slide along corresponding opposing vertical sections of the frame profile.

Abstract: An adaptor pallet and a method for transporting a plurality of dollies without compromising occupational safety. The novel adaptor pallet includes a base and two lifting structures. The base is shaped to receive adjacent wheels of at least two parallel dollies. The lifting structures are arranged extend from both sides of the base so as to receive a lifting device for directly supporting the weight of the dolly from beneath upon lifting motion of the adaptor pallet by means of a lifting device.

Abstract: The adaptor pallet includes two sets of parallel tracks, a lifting structure connecting the tracks at an elevated level, a loading end for introducing dollies to the adapter pallet, and a closed end including a stopper for limiting the movement of dollies. The adaptor pallet further includes a locking plate which is rotatably connected to the lifting structure at one end, while another end of the locking plate includes a stopper protrusion and a member for releasably affixing the locking plate into a horizontal position such that the stopper protrusion limits the movement of the dollies at the loading end of the adaptor pallet, wherein the locking plate is releasable from the horizontal position into an angled position for opening the loading end of the adaptor pallet.
