Embodiment Construction

[0027] In the description that follows, like elements are marked throughout the specification and drawings with the same reference character, respectively. The drawing figures are not necessarily to scale. Further, description of the assembly and various elements, components or portions of the assembly are provided according to their orientation as depicted in the drawings and are not meant to be limiting in any way.

[0028] With reference to FIG. 1, the preferred embodiment, generally 10, has a rectangular pallet base 12 mounted on three support runners or beams 14, 16, 18. The thickness of the base 12 varies depending on the load to be carried by the pallet 10. The support runners, e.g., 18, are each made with numerous sheets of paper, or chipboard, or corrugated wrapped layer upon layer and individually glued together with polyvinyl acetate or similar glue or a moisture resistant glue. The paper, or chipboard, or cardboard may be treated with moisture resistant chemicals or a mois...

Abstract

This invention relates to an improved pallet for material handling, shipping, packaging and the like. In particular this invention relates to a pallet that is lightweight, strong, recyclable, resistant to insect infestation, and preferably made of paper and glue.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] Traditionally, pallets have been made of wood planks nailed together. In one common structure, a series of parallel wood planks are nailed to the top of three transversely extending, parallel, and equally spaced wood support planks. Similarly, a series of parallel lower wood planks are nailed to the bottom of the three support planks. [0002] Forklift tines can slide under the upper planks in the two parallel channels formed by the three spaced support planks. The forklift can then raise its tines which lifts the pallet and anything mounted on it. [0003] Wood pallets are expensive, because they eventually breakdown. When they do little of the wood is useable to make new pallets. To make new pallets, new wood is required which necessitates the cutting down of tress, which is both expensive, and of great environmental concern. [0004] Wood pallets are very heavy which increases their cost both in storage and shipping. [0005] Wood pallets are dangerous ...
