Pallet attachment frame

摘要

The invention relates to an attachment frame (2) for transport pallets, comprising receiving elements that are provided on the bottom side of the transport pallet and cooperate with corresponding engaging elements in the upper side of the transport pallet. The attachment frame is composed of a rigid base frame (3) and lateral walls (5) foldably hinged thereon, wherein two opposing lateral walls are designed so that they can be folded down against the pallet surface and the two other opposing lateral walls are designed so that they can be folded down onto the previously folded-down lateral walls. Engaging elements (8) are provided in the upper edges of the lateral walls for corresponding receiving elements in the base frame lower edges.
