Gas cylinder pallet transport - has open slots underneath cylinder receiving spaces and engaged by chain conveyor for transport

摘要

The pallet has in its bottom endwise open slots (22) underneath article receiving spaces so that articles are supported by the undersides of laterally projecting portions (12) of the articles. The slot is used for loading and/or unloading purposes by engaging a chain conveyor (8). The longitudinally-extending pallet parts (18) are connected by framework (17) lifted by a T-piece (28). The T-piece can be retracted into a slot so that stacking is possible. The pallet can slide on rollers to load and unload instead of the articles being carried by a conveyor. The articles may be engaged by flanges on their upper parts.
