CA 2081949

The apparatus includes a pallet of corrugated material such as cardboard or fibreboard. The pallet includes a horizontal load-bearing surface which is supported by a matrix of ground engaging runners. The runners in a first direction include upwardly facing slots while the runners in a second direction, perpendicular thereto, include downwardly facing slots. The upwardly facing slots inter-engage with the downwardly facing slots so that a matrix of runners is formed to support the horizontal load-bearing surface. The runners in the first direction are substantially identical to the runners in the second direction but for the orientation of the slots. Alternately, the runners in a first direction include alternating slots, whereas the runners in a second direction alternate between all slots being upwardly facing and all slots being downwardly facing. The runners in both directions include cut-outs for engaging the tines of a forklift. The pallet may also have a bottom member coupled with runners to facilitate the transport of the pallet on roller conveyors.

Dispositif à palette composée d'un matériau ondulé, par exemple du carton mince ou du carton dur. La palette comprend une surface horizontale porteuse supportée par une série de rails en contact avec le sol. Les rails orientés dans une première direction comportent des fentes orientées vers le haut, et les rails orientés dans une deuxième direction perpendiculaire comportent des fentes orientées vers le bas. Les fentes orientées vers le haut s'engagent avec les fentes orientées vers le bas de manière à former une matrice de rails qui supporte la surface horizontale portante. Les rails orientés dans la première direction sont pour ainsi dire identiques à ceux qui vont dans la deuxième direction, sauf pour ce qui est de l'orientation des fentes. Selon un autre modèle, les rails orientés dans la première direction comportent des fentes alternées, alors que les rails orientés dans la deuxième direction présentent en alternance la totalité des fentes orientées vers le haut puis vers le bas. Les rails orientés dans les deux directions présentent des logements engageant les fourches d'un chariot élévateur. La palette peut aussi comporter un fond associé aux rails pour faciliter le transport de la palette sur convoyeurs à rouleaux.
