Repair Kit For Industrial Pallet Racking Frame

A pallet racking repair kit has been recently marketed which is installable without unloading of the rack and requires no welding during installation

. It consists of a frame with a front upright so configured as to receive the lower end of the frame upright after removal of the damaged lower portion, thereof, and to provide a mechanical splice therewith. Struts extend rearward from the kit upright and mechanically secure to the rear leg of the pallet racking frame. Hence, the force imparted by any subsequent impact to the front leg of the pallet rack is transferred to, and borne by, the rear leg of the pallet rack, which has lost some stability by loss of a cross member which normally extends between the front leg and the rear leg close to ground level.

By contrast, the repair kit of the present invention does not use the undamaged back leg of the pallet rackking to support or increase the impact capacity of the repair kit. The present invention includes a second leg intermediate the damaged front leg and the rear leg of the pallet rack, together with upper and lower cross members which brace the upright legs of the repair kit in a rectangular formation, such that no additional weight must be born by the existing rear post, and, indeed, less weight must be borne by the existing rear post after kit installation.

The repair kit for an industrial pallet racking frame has a front post having an upper end and a lower end, and an intermediate post having an upper end and a lower end. The front post and the rear post are connected by an upper cross member and a lower cross member in parallel and spaced apart relation defining a rectangular or square frame having an interior. The front and intermediate posts and the upper and lower cross members are preferably made from rectangular tubular metal stock. Both the front post and the rear post have an anchor plate attached to the lower end of the posts facing the interior of the frame.
