Embodiment Construction

[0063] In the following description of Figures 1 to 4, reference will be made to modules and platforms embodied as pallets. However, it should be understood that the text is equally relevant to modules and platforms embodied as floors and frames and the like.

[0064] Referring first to FIG. 1 , the module is shown in the form of a first pallet tile 10 capable of forming a facile (removable) pallet for construction that can be easily transported and stored. the basic unit of .

[0065] Brick 10 constitutes a first embodiment of a pallet module and includes a generally square body portion 12 having four sides 14A-14D, each of which is adapted to be connected to another (usually the same) molding brick. One of the sides is tightly joined (or connected) face-to-face. In plan view, the brick body has a generally square shape with adjacent sides 14A-14B, 14B-14C, etc. at right angles (90°) to each other. However, the corners 15 of the main body portion 12 can be rounded for func...

Abstract

Module (10) for a platform comprises a body (12) having at least one side (14A) for adjoining a side of another module. At least two spaced dovetailed shaped lugs (16A, 16B, 16C) are located at the side (14A) to define a shaped region (18) so that a corresponding lug on another module can be positioned in the region. The module has a central region (28) with a plurality of apertures (30) arranged in a honeycomb pattern. A cover strip can be applied to periphery sides of the platform to improve both the aesthetics and safety. A method of loading goods on a platform is disclosed, and a module with loaded goods can be detached from the platform. The module is produced by plastics injection moulding and recycled plastic such as polyethylene can be employed. A plurality of modules can create a platform, pallet, flooring, formwork or a rainwater tank stand.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention discloses a module for forming various platform types. The platform can be embodied as a so-called detachable (or detachable) pallet comprising one or more of the modules. The pallet can in turn be used to form an integral part of the rainwater tank support and can be provided as an integral part of a complete rainwater tank component. Alternatively, the platform can embody a floor, a frame or the same supporting structure (for example in detachable form), especially for temporary, non-permanent applications. Although the module is described herein, it should be understood that the module should not be limited thereto. Background technique [0002] Field-installed home rainwater tanks are becoming more common in countries and cities currently experiencing declining annual rainfall. In order to simplify and facilitate the on-site assembly of rainwater tanks, it is now proposed to use easily disassembled pallets, which are provid...
