Benefits of technology
The invention is a system for vertically stacking box trays of different types. The system includes a plurality of box trays of a first type and a plurality of box trays of a second type. The first type trays have a first side and a second side, while the second type trays have a first side and a second side. The system also includes a plurality of adapting members that are vertically mounatable between the trays. The adapting members have hollow elongate configurations with off-axis pins and recesses for receiving the heads of the first terminals and the recesses of the second terminals. The system can be used to stack the trays in an arbitrary sequence, and the adapting members can be connected to the trays at the matching sites on the first and second sides. The invention also includes an open top container for loading, storing, and shipping goods in bulk, with a rigid structure and a bag for accommodating the goods. The technical effects of the invention include improved vertical stacking of box trays, simplified handling of the trays, and increased efficiency in the use of space.
Problems solved by technology
The difficulty is that packaging units of different types can not be stacked one upon the other in an arbitrary sequence.

Embodiment Construction
[0039]The following description is provided, so as to enable any person skilled in the art to make use of said invention and sets forth the best modes contemplated by the inventor of carrying out this invention. Various modifications, however, are adapted to remain apparent to those skilled in the art, since the generic principles of the present invention have been defined specifically to provide a method for vertically stacking trays of at least two standard types and a method of using the same.
[0040]Reference is now made to FIG. 1, presenting an elemental vertical stack of trays. The aforesaid stack comprises trays of different types 210 and 220 which are vertically spaced apart by means of adapting members 100. The aforesaid members 100 provide stable and reliable connection between the trays of different types 210 and 220.
[0041]Reference is now made to FIG. 2, presenting a set of the adapting members 100 which should be disposed at corners of the trays 210 / 220.
[0042]Reference is...

Abstract
A system for vertically stacking trays of at least two standard types is disclosed. The system comprises a plurality of adapting elongate members which are vertically mountable between the trays. Each elongate member has a longitudinal axis; each elongate member has a first terminal and a second terminal. The first terminal has a taper head provided with at least two off-axis pins are oppositely disposed relative to the axis. The second terminal has at least one recess within a wall of the second terminal. Each tray of each type has a first side and a second side. Each tray is provided with matching sites such that the matching sites located on the first side are configured for receiving the heads of the first terminals and the matching sites located on the second side are configured for receiving the recess of the second terminals.
Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention is related to packaging, shipping and warehousing, and more specifically, to combined stacking of trays of at least two types.BACKGROUND[0002]At the moment, there are the following kinds of packaging: (a) plastic boxes, (b) carton boxes and Ecopack® trays. During conveying and warehousing of the goods, intermixture of goods takes place. The goods packaged in different type of trays should be stored and conveyed together. Logistic operators use main three types of packaging unit, specifically, Ecopack® trays, plastic trays and plastic boxes. The difficulty is that packaging units of different types can not be stacked one upon the other in an arbitrary sequence.[0003]Thus, there is a long-felt and unmet need for a system providing vertical stacking of packaging units of different types in the arbitrary sequence. Three opportunities should be provided: (a) mounting the Ecopack® tray onto the plastic tray; mounting the plastic box onto t...
