摘要

A refrigerated cargo bay such as a cargo bay of a refrigerated cargo transport in combination with a plurality of generally rectangular product support platforms. The product support platforms each have a generally rectangular upper panel and a plurality of spacers depending from the upper panel for spacing the upper panel from the floor of the cargo bay. The spacers are arranged in spaced apart locations and define passageways for air beneath the upper panel and above the floor between all of the four sides of the platform to permit the flow of air into any one of the sides between the upper panel and the floor and out all three of the other sides of the platform. The platforms are arranged in a side-by-side relationship on the floor of the cargo bay with adjacent sides of the platforms generally in engagement with one another such that air is permitted to flow under the upper panels between all platforms in substantially all directions parallel to the floor.
