Transport frame or cradle used e.g. to support bags for bulk materials, includes joints in upright posts enabling compact folding

摘要

Upright posts (16,18, 20) include joints (24) with a guide in which the lower end of the associated upper post section (18) can be slid over a given length. The latter has the same thickness as the thickness of the upper post section (18) which is to be folded. After folding these lie mutually-parallel, resting on each other in pairs. The joints are fitted to the base (12) which includes a resting surface for the upper post section.
