IMPROVED SIDE-LOADING CONTAINER CHASSIS STORAGE RACK ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A side-loading rack for storing wheeled container chassis in a nearly vertical, slightly leaning position has a framework of dividers defining plural vertical slots open on one or both sides for receiving a container chassis sideways in each slot. Each divider includes a chassis support arm which extends front to rear along an upper side of each slot. A wheel support on one side of each divider is positioned in a lower part of each slot to support the wheels of a container chassis so that the chassis frame leans at a small angle from vertical against the chassis support arm of an adjacent divid- er. Corner castings are positioned at opposite ends of the rack so that it can be handled in the same manner as a contain- er. The dividers of one embodiment are constructed with an upper portion, including the chassis support arms, either removable from or collapsible into the lower portion of the frame means to form a more compact structure for ease of handl- ing. In the first embodiment, the wheel support is a cradle-like structure. The dividers of a second embodiment include opposed support surfaces inclined downwardly toward the center of the slot to support the wheels on one divider and the rear end of the chassis on the other divider. The foundation is arranged safely to provide added support to the rear end and includes lengthwise end extensions to form an extra slot between the ends of two abutting racks.
