pallet racking
A pallet racking is characterized by a lower pallet unit and an upper pallet unit supported on the lower pallet unit. The lower pallet unit includes a lower pallet and plurality of posts extending upwardly from the lower pallet. The posts have lower portions secured to the lower pallet and have upper portions. The upper portions have longitudinal passages terminating at upper ends circumscribing entry openings into the passages. The upper pallet unit includes an upper pallet having a lower surface and a plurality of bores in the upper pallet with entry openings along the lower surface in respective longitudinal alignment with the passages. Connectors connect the upper pallet to the posts and have upper extensions respectively received in the bores of the upper pallet, lower extensions respectively received in the passages of the posts, and flanges disposed between the lower surface of the upper pallet and the upper ends of the passages.
1. A pallet racking comprising a lower pallet unit including a lower pallet having a horizontal upper surface and a plurality of vertical posts extending longitudinally upwardly from said upper surface, each of said posts having a lower portion secured to said lower pallet and having an upper portion, each of said posts having a longitudinal passage at said upper portion terminating at an upper end circumscribing an entry opening to said passage; a plurality of connectors respectively associated with said passages, each of said connectors including a support flange having a lower face and an upper face, a lower extension extending longitudinally from said lower face and an upper extension extending longitudinally from said upper face coaxial with said lower extension, said flanges having an external size to prevent passage of said flanges through said entry openings, said lower extensions being respectively disposed with a close fit in said passages via said entry openings with said lower faces of said flanges in respective abutment with said upper ends of said passages; and an upper pallet unit including an upper pallet having a lower surface and a horizontal upper surface, and a plurality of bores in said upper pallet respectively corresponding to said upper extensions, each of said bores having an entry aperture along said lower surface of a size to prevent passage of said flanges therethrough, said upper extensions being respectively disposed with a close fit in said bores via said entry apertures with said lower surface of said upper pallet in abutment with said upper faces of said flanges whereby said upper pallet is supported in parallel spaced relation over said lower pallet.
2. The pallet racking recited in claim 1 and further including a plurality of securing devices respectively securing said lower portions to said lower pallet, said securing devices comprising a plurality of base plates respectively secured to said lower portions of said posts at a perpendicular angle and attached to said upper surface of said lower pallet.
3. The pallet racking recited in claim 1 wherein each of said lower portions of said posts has a longitudinal passage terminating at a lower end circumscribing an entry opening to said passage of said lower portion, and further including a plurality of securing devices respectively securing said lower portions to said lower pallet, said securing devices comprising an additional plurality of said connectors respectively associated with said passages of said lower portions, said flanges of said additional plurality of said connectors having an external size to prevent passage of said flanges of said additional plurality of said connectors through said entry openings at said lower ends, said upper extensions of said additional plurality of said connectors being respectively disposed with a close fit in said passages of said lower portions via said entry openings at said lower ends with said upper faces of said flanges of said additional plurality of said connectors in respective abutment with said lower ends, and a plurality of bores in said lower pallet respectively corresponding to said lower extensions of said additional plurality of said connectors, each of said bores in said lower pallet having an entry aperture along said upper surface of said lower pallet of a size to prevent passage of said flanges of said additional plurality of said connectors therethrough, said lower extensions of said additional plurality of said connectors being respectively disposed with a close fit in said bores of said lower pallet via said entry apertures along said upper surface of said lower pallet, with said upper surface of said lower pallet in abutment with said lower faces of said flanges of said additional plurality of said connectors.
4. The pallet rackingrecited in claim 3 wherein said longitudinal passages of said upper and lower portions are formed coaxially in each of said posts.
5. The pallet racking recited in claim 1 wherein said upper pallet unit further comprises an additional plurality of said vertical posts extending longitudinally upwardly from said upper surface of said upper pallet, each of said posts of said upper pallet unit having a lower portion secured to said upper pallet and an upper portion terminating at an upper end.
6. The pallet racking recited in claim 5 wherein said posts of said upper pallet unit are respectively longitudinally aligned with said posts of said lower pallet unit.
7. The pallet racking recited in claim 5 wherein said lower pallet unit further comprises at least one shelf secured to said posts of said lower pallet unit in spaced parallel relation above said upper surface of said lower pallet, and said upper pallet unit further comprises at least one shelf secured to said posts of said upper pallet unit in spaced parallel relation above said upper surface of said upper pallet.
8. The pallet racking recited in claim 5 wherein said posts of said lower pallet unit comprise two front posts and two rear posts, said lower pallet unit further comprises a front stabilizing bar extending diagonally between said front posts, a rear stabilizing bar extending diagonally between said rear posts, and a pair of side stabilizing bars respectively extending diagonally between said front posts and said rear posts, said posts of said upper pallet unit comprise two front posts and two rear posts, said upper pallet unit further comprises a front stabilizing bar extending diagonally between said front posts of said upper pallet unit, a rear stabilizing bar extending diagonally between said rear posts of said upper pallet unit and a pair of side stabilizing bars respectively extending diagonally between said front posts of said upper pallet unit and said rear posts of said upper pallet unit.
