  • Foldable transport rack and methods of use thereof
    Patent number: 6820752
    Abstract: A stackable, folding transport rack generally including a base, a plurality of supports, at least one foldable A-frame hingedly secured to the base and an optional securing assembly. The base of the transport rack is supported by a plurality of legs bearing supports which are adapted to support the lower edges of objects, such as glass sheets or other sheet materials to be carried by the transport rack. The supports are configured to be as low as possible to the resting surface of the transport rack so as to provide for a minimal lift height for loading and unloading. The low arrangement of the supports also maximizes the size of glass sheets that can be carried and maintains the lowest possible center of gravity. The top of the sheet supports may be cushioned with appropriate resilient material.
