ABSTRACT:
A four-way pallet is of rectangular shape and is unitarily formed inwardly f each of its longitudinal edges with a row of three edge bosses projecting and tapering from one of the faces of the pallet. These bosses constitute feet for the pallet and define a pair of parallel ways across the plate at the one face and perpendicular to the longitudinal edges of the pallet. The plate is further formed between and parallel to the edge rows with a row of two middle bosses projecting and tapering from the one pallet face and each formed with apertures in line with the ways. Thus tines of a lift fork can pass under the pallet standing on the bosses between the edge bosses and through the apertures of the middle bosses. Such an arrangement of staggered bosses on the pallet provides continuous support therefor when rolling on a roller-type conveyor in a direction parallel to the longitudinal edges. The pallet is of uniform thickness throughout and the feet have flat faces and sides formed as isosceles trapezoids.
