FOLDING TRANSPORTATION RACK AND PRODUCT DELIVERY SYSTEM

摘要

This invention relates to a rack for transporting, storing and dispensing bales of manufactured rolled goods. The folding transportation rack and product delivery system prevents damage to the bales during transportation and permits removal of the product from the bale directly from the rack. The rack is collapsible and includes a base with end frames pivotally attached to the base. Side support members are attached to the end frames when the end frames are in an extended position. Cam fixtures are aligned on either of the opposing frames or an opposing side support members to vertically secure both long core and short core bales of rolled goods. The racks are interchangeable and allow the stacking of several racks while holding bales of material. The present invention also permits the dispensing of the material directly from the storage rack. Upon removal of all the rolled goods from the bale, the entire rack collapses into a smaller structure and may be stacked onto other racks for return shipping and reuse.
