Abstract: A pallet lift includes a base and a deck extending forward of the base. Load wheels support the deck. A platform above the deck is pivotable relative to the base. The platform has an upper support surface for supporting objects thereon. The platform may be pivoted as the pallet lift travels on an inclined surface, such as a truck ramp, in order to keep the platform relatively level relative to gravity to increase stability.

Abstract: A cart includes a base, a pair of rear wheels supporting the base, and a pair of tines extending forward of the base. A load wheel is positioned below forward ends of each of the pair of tines for raising and lowering the tine. A handle extends upward from the base, the handle including a horizontal handle, wherein the horizontal handle is substantially aligned with the axles of the rear wheels. The tines are wider and longer so that each tine can support two small nestable pallets. Each nestable pallet includes a deck, feet supporting the deck and a peripheral lip extending upward from the deck. The pallet is sized to support single stack of containers, such as standard-size totes.

Abstract: A hub motor includes a hub motor body, an axle extending into the hub motor body, a rotor coupled to the outer housing, a stator within the rotor and coupled to the axle, and a brake within the hub motor body. The brake may include a brake pad spring-biased into braking engagement and moved out of braking engagement by an electromagnetic coil, such that the brake will fail into a braked state.

Abstract: A tote mover includes a base and a plurality of wheels supporting the base. A backrest is moveable relative to the base. A hook assembly is moveable relative to the backrest between a first rotational position and a second rotational position.

Abstract: A pallet sled includes a base and a pair of tines extending from the base. A load wheel supports outer ends of each of the tines. A wheel supports the base. At least one motor is configured to drive the base wheel or at least one of the load wheels for driving the pallet sled. The motor may be a hub motor inside the base wheel or the load wheel.

Abstract: A collapsible container includes rigid sidewalls and end walls that are hinged together and a rigid bottom wall that is hinged to one of the sidewalls. A short leg on an end of each of the sidewalls gives the sidewall a L-shape (when viewed from above). Hinges formed on distal ends of the legs enable the bottom wall to fold against an inboard surface of one of the sidewalls, and enable one of the end walls to lie flat to conserve volume for shipping multiple containers in the collapsed configuration.

Abstract: A tray destacker includes a pair of spaced-apart carriages movable vertically relative to a frame. An indexing member is carried by each of the carriages. Each indexing member is movable between a deployed position in which the indexing members are closer to one another and a retracted position in which the indexing members are further from one another. A controller is programmed to automatically split a large stack of trays into two or more smaller stacks.

Abstract: A pallet sled includes a base and a plurality of tines extending forward from the base. At least one of the plurality of tines includes a wheel supporting the tine away from the base. A brake assembly is positioned adjacent the wheel to selectively brake the wheel. The brake assembly may include a drum adjacent the wheel. Alternatively, the brake assembly may include a brake shoe selectively directly contacting the wheel to brake the sled.

Abstract: A pallet sled includes a lower frame and a plurality of wheels supporting the lower frame. An upper frame is configured to support a pallet thereon. A ratchet is configured to lift the upper frame relative to the lower frame. A handle is configured to operate the ratchet to lift the upper frame relative to the lower frame. The handle may be pivotable relative to the lower frame. The ratchet may include a gear and a pawl. The ratchet may also be configured to selectively lower the upper frame. As another option, one or more of the handle, the upper frame or the plurality of wheels are reconfigurable between an extended position and a retracted position.

Abstract: A collapsible container includes a base having a base wall with a plurality of support surfaces separated by a longitudinal drainage channel and a plurality of lateral drainage channels intersecting the longitudinal drainage channel. The drainage channels are lower than the support surfaces. The base wall does not include any openings therethrough, so the drainage channels retain fluid leaking from products or packages in the container. The base may further include a plurality of troughs proximate edges of the base. The plurality of troughs are lower than the drainage channels. Walls are pivotably mounted to the base and are pivotable between an upright position and a collapsed position.

Abstract: A container moving assembly includes a frame with a drive wheel pivotably attached to the frame about a steering axis. A pair of guide wheels are rotatably attached relative to the frame opposite the drive wheel. A platform lifting assembly is pivotable relative to the frame and includes an engagement platform for supporting a container.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a collapsible container includes a base and a plurality of walls including a first wall and an adjacent second wall. The first wall and the second wall each include a U-shaped frame hingeably secured to the base and at least one section pivotably secured to the respective frame to selectively restrict and facilitate access to an interior of the container. A frame latch selectively secures the frame of the first wall to the frame of the second wall.

Abstract: A pallet sled includes a sled base having wheels. A fork tine assembly extends from the sled base and includes a pair of fork tines. At least one of the pair of fork tines is configured to be secured to a base of a hand cart, such as with a slot or recess. The hand cart can be carried by the fork tine while the fork tines are supporting a pallet loaded with goods thereon.

Abstract: The collapsible container includes a base and a pair of opposed first walls pivotably connected to opposed first edges of the base. A second wall or front wall is pivotably connected to a second edge of the base such that the second wall is perpendicular to the first walls. The front wall includes a frame including a pair of elongated vertical upstanding members each including a recess opening outward of the container. The front wall further includes a door pivotably connected to the upstanding members. The door includes an upper panel portion having a pair of wing portions projecting away from one another and receivable in the recesses in the upstanding members.
