ABSTRACT:
A corrugated cardboard pallet is disclosed which bears a load without crushing struts and without destroying beam members even though the pallet is exposed to transverse vibrations generated during transportation by a truck or a transport vehicle. Pallet deck plates are bonded on both the upper and lower surfaces of multiple beam members made of corrugated cardboard. Beam member comprises a body having a first square prism and a second square prism wherein body has a square prism shape by overlaying inner plates of beam members and another inner plate of another beam member on common base platform. The bottom edges of a pair of struts are foldably connected via linking plates; the size of each strut being set such that its side edge contacts an outer plate6of each corresponding square prism. Flaps extend toward inner plate in an inclined manner such that flaps contact inner plates thereby providing load-bearing portions. The bottom edge of strut contacts linking plate and the size of flaps that are housed square prisms contacting inner plates is set such that their tips interfere with each other.
