CA 2360063

A pallet (60) is assembled from three basic components that can be combined in various ways to produce different configurations. Several identical slats (12) are connected in alternative positions to latches over the top member of at least two transverse runners (14), thereby forming a load-bearing support surface. The bottom side of each runner includes uniformly-spaced blocks (16) for elevating the support surface over the ground and providing clearance under the top member for engagement of the pallet by the fork of material handling equipment. Identical slats (12) are also connected to the bottom of these blocks to provide continuous bottom surfaces in the longitudinal direction of the pallet. An additional basic component, a foot-frame member (32) that is adapted to fill the space between pairs of blocks in the underside of the runners, can be added or formed integrally with the runners to provide a continuous bottom surface also in the transverse direction of the pallet.

Cette invention concerne une palette (60) assemblée à partir de trois composants de base qui peuvent être combinés de diverses manières afin de produire différentes configurations. Plusieurs lattes identiques (12) sont connectées en positions alternantes à des verrous sur l'élément supérieur d'au moins deux coulisseaux transversaux (14) de manière à former une surface de support de charges. Le côté inférieur de chaque coulisseau comprend des blocs (16) régulièrement espacés qui permettent d'élever la surface de support au-dessus du sol, et de laisser un jour sous l'élément supérieur de sorte que la palette puisse être manipulée par la fourche d'un engin de manutention. Les lattes identiques (12) sont également connectées au fond de ces blocs de manière à former des surfaces de fond continues dans le sens longitudinal de la palette. Un composant de base additionnel consistant en un élément de type cadre à pieds (32) est en outre prévu pour remplir l'espace entre des paires de blocs sur le dessous des coulisseaux, lequel élément peut être rapporté ou faire partie intégrante des coulisseaux de manière former également une surface de fond continue dans le sens transversal de la palette.
