摘要 |
A pallet includes a support structure configured to accept fork tines, a deck secured to the support structure, and a plate secured to at least one of the deck and the support structure by a securing device. The securing device is configured to allow movement of the plate between a first position obstructing entry of a fork tine through the support structure and a second position allowing entry of a fork tine through the support structure. The securing device is configured to allow movement of the plate from the first position to the second position when a fork tine impacts the plate from a first direction. The plate is blocked from moving from the first position when a fork tine impacts the plate from a second direction opposing the first direction. |
