Patent

CA 2235508

A horizontally stretch-wrapped masterpackage includes four individual horizontally tension film-wrapped modular units in a horizontal two-by-two relationship. Each unit includes a rectangular pallet which is capable of being lifted from any of the four sides by a forklift truck. Each unit contains fifty bundles of builders shims. Each bundle contains, for example, forty-eight builders shims. Each bundle may itself be horizontally shrink-wrapped around its vertical outer periphery to facilitate drying of the shims during shipment. A method of loading the masterpackages in a truck trailer is also disclosed.

La présente invention vise un emballage d'expédition plein sous film étiré à l'horizontale se composant de quatre éléments modulaires séparés emballés par paire sous un film étirable tendu horizontalement. Chaque élément comprend une palette rectangulaire pouvant être levée de l'un ou l'autre des quatre côtés par un chariot élévateur. Chaque élément modulaire contient cinquante paquets de lattes servant de cales d'épaisseur. Chaque paquet renferme, par exemple, quarante-huit lattes et peut être lui-même recouvert d'un film étiré à l'horizontale encerclant le haut des lattes formant les surfaces extérieures du paquet en vue de faciliter le séchage de ces lattes durant leur expédition. Une méthode de chargement de ce type d'emballages d'expédition pleins dans un train routier fait également l'objet de l'invention.
