20120317929 | CELL TRAY, USE THEREOF AND METHOD FOR HANDLING CONTAINERS - The present invention provides a novel cell tray for transporting a plurality of containers in a diagonal loading pattern and a method for handling containers. The cell tray includes a rectangular frame and a loading surface which is defined by the frame and is configured to support container bottoms in a number of bottle positions such that a number of bottle positions is arranged to accommodate a different number of containers on the tray in a loading pattern. The number of bottle positions is at least twice as large as the number of containers in the loading pattern. The bottle positions are also arranged in a matrix-like pattern, whereby a diagonal pattern can be loaded onto the tray without a specific orientation thereof. | 12-20-2012 |
20130199953 | CELL TRAY - A cell tray suitable for accommodating bottles of at least two different sizes. The cell tray has a loading surface to receive bottle bottoms in a matrix-like loading pattern and holding devices to receive and lock into place bottle mouths loaded onto a similar cell tray beneath said holding devices in a stack of cell trays. The holding devices are arranged as to align with at least two separate loading patterns on the loading surface. The first loading pattern is formed by a first plurality of holding devices arranged in a matrix-like formation having a first number of rows and columns. The second loading pattern is formed by a second plurality of holding devices arranged in a matrix-like formation having a second number of rows and columns. The second number of rows and columns is at least one less than the first number of rows and columns. | 08-08-2013 |
20140174976 | TRAY FOR CARTON PACKAGES - A tray for carton packages comprising a first quadrangular surface forming a flat support plateau for accommodating bottoms of carton packages and a second quadrangular surface forming a flat support plateau for accommodating tops of carton packages. A first edge surrounds the first surface and extends away therefrom. A second edge surrounds the second flat surface and extends away thereform and at least a first row of recesses is formed in the second surface and at least a second row of recesses is formed on the second surface, the second row of recesses being dissimilar to the first row of recesses. | 06-26-2014 |
20140291196 | LOGISTICS CRATE MODULE AND METHOD OF TRANSPORTING GOODS - A crate module which includes a quadrilateral tray portion with a load carrying side and an opposing side. The tray portion is delimited by four successively connected peripheral edges and has form fitting elements. The crate module also includes four side panels each of which have a proximal end, from which the side panel is pivotably connected to a respective peripheral edge, and a distal end having a counterpart form fitting element which is configured to cooperate with a corresponding form fitting element of the tray portion of a similar logistics crate in a superposed configuration. At least one of the side panels is pivotably connected to the respective peripheral edge on said opposing side of the tray portion. | 10-02-2014 |
20140366783 | ADAPTOR PALLET AND METHOD OF TRANSPORTING A PLURALITY OF DOLLIES BY MEANS OF AN ADAPTOR PALLET - The present invention provides a simplified adaptor pallet and method for transporting a plurality of dollies without compromising occupational safety. The novel adaptor pallet includes a base and two lifting structures. The base is shaped to receive adjacent wheels of at least two parallel dollies. The lifting structures are arranged extend from both sides of the base so as to receive a lifting device for directly supporting the weight of the dolly from beneath upon lifting motion of the adaptor pallet by means of a lifting device. | 12-18-2014 |
20150143665 | ONE-PIECE HINGE BODY AND HINGE ASSEMBLY FOR PIVOTING ELEMENTS - The present invention provides for a robust one-piece hinge body which is suitable to withstand strain of rough handling. The novel one-piece hinge body includes a first profile portion which is configured to at least partially enclose a first profile. The hinge body also includes a second profile portion which is configured to at least partially enclose a second profile which is parallel to the first profile. The hinge body further has an outer portion which connects the first and second profile portions and which is located on the outside of the hinge joint of the pivoted profiles. The body also includes an inner portion which opposes the outer portion and connects the first and second profile portions while being located on the inside of the hinge joint of the pivoted profiles. According to the invention the inner portion consists of joinable terminal ends of the first and second profile portions, wherein a mating surface is formed between said joined terminal ends. Accordingly, the outer portion is solid for withstanding retraction upon closing movement of the hinge. | 05-28-2015 |
20150368017 | SYSTEM FOR THE TRANSPORT OF AN ARRAY OF A PLURALITY OF SELF-SUPPORTING CONTAINERS FOR LIQUIDS - A novel system for the transport of an array of a plurality of self-supporting containers for liquids is provided. The system includes a cell tray, which is designed for a particular type of containers and has a load carrying surface for receiving bottom portions of said particular containers. The undersurface of the cell tray is on the reverse side to the load carrying surface and is shaped to receive top portions of similar containers of another cell tray beneath the undersurface. The cell tray also has a quadrilateral peripheral edge, which defines a periphery and surrounds the load carrying surface and the undersurface. The system also includes an insert, which features a peripheral edge, which fits within the periphery of the edge of the cell tray. The insert is configured to be removably inserted onto the load carrying surface or to the undersurface of the cell tray. A first surface of the insert is defined by the peripheral edge and configured to engage with a plurality of containers, which are different to those for which the cell tray is designed. A second surface of the insert is on the reverse side to the first surface and defined by the peripheral edge and configured to engage with the cell tray. | 12-24-2015 |
