Abstract:
According to a first aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a wheeled transport device featuring at least one castor which has a wheel and a brake system which has a contact member with one opening which is defined by an edge. The contact member is configured to be manipulated between an applied state, where the edge is in contact with the wheel, and a released state where the edge is not in contact with the wheel.

Abstract:
According to a first aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a folding container comprising a base, a first mount on the base, a first side wall, and a translational hinge connecting the first side wall to the first mount. The translational hinge facilitates rotational and translational movement of the first side wall between an upright erected state and a folded state, in which the first side wall extends in a generally parallel to the base. The container also has an upright lock featuring a peg on the first side wall and a catch on the mount. The catch has a recess for receiving the peg of the first side wall to lock the first side wall into the erected state. The recess is elongated, at least in part, in a direction that is slanted in respect to the upright orientation.
Abstract:
An adaptor pallet and a 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.
Abstract:
A dolly comprising a chassis, a castor having a fork and a wheel rotatably mounted to the fork, and a fastener for fixing the fork of the castor to the chassis of the dolly. The fastener comprises a head which is shaped to the peripheral shape of the wheel of the castor.
Abstract:
A safe and user-friendly door, especially for logistics containers, which preferably includes a quadrilateral frame, defining the perimeter for the door. A latch is provided movably to the frame so as to be manipulated between a locking state, in which at least a distal portion of the latch protrudes outside the perimeter, and a released state, in which the distal portion is flush with or inside the perimeter. The frame also preferably includes a diagonal guide, which is configured to guide the latch between the locking state and the released state by allowing deviation of the latch along a path diagonal to the quadrilateral shape of the frame.
Abstract:
A novel proposition is herein presented for providing a safe and user-friendly door especially for logistics containers. The door includes a quadrilateral frame, which defining the perimeter for the door. A latch is provided movably to the frame so as to be manipulated between a locking state, in which at least a distal portion of the latch protrudes outside said perimeter, and a released state, in which the distal portion is flush with or inside said perimeter. The frame also includes a diagonal guide, which is configured to guide the latch between the locking state and the released state by allowing deviation of the latch along a path diagonal to the quadrilateral shape of the frame.
Abstract:
An accessory shelf for a roll container. The shelf includes a pivoting mechanism provided to the first end of the shelf for pivoting the shelf relative to to a frame profile of a first wall of the roll container between a horizontal load carrying configuration and a vertical folding configuration. Included in the shelf is a locking mechanism provided to the second end of the shelf to rest the shelf in a load carrying orientation against a second wall of the roll container. The locking mechanism is configured to engage a horizontal element of the first wall to suspend the shelf from the horizontal element when the shelf is in the vertical folding configuration. The pivoting mechanism includes two slide members that oppose each other at the first end and are shaped to at least partly envelop a vertical section of a frame profile of the first wall of the roll container to slide along corresponding opposing vertical sections of the frame profile The pivoting mechanism also includes an axle connected to at least one slide member extending towards the other hinge member to create an axis of revolution for the shelf. The pivoting mechanism further includes a limiter connected to the axle and rotatable about the axis of revolution relative to at least one slide member and to engage with a horizontal element of the first wall.
