ABSTRACT:
A parts stacking pallet is formed by a horizontal base that is constructed to define a number of channel-shaped tracks. Each track adjustably supports an upstanding post, such that the posts can be moved along the tracks adjacent an area defined by a plan configuration of the parts to be stored on the pallet. The posts prevent the stacked parts from being laterally dislocated off the stack. Each post is adjustably clamped to the associated track by a clamping mechanism that includes a shoe located within the track and a manually-operated toggle device that is effective to raise the shoe into pressure engagement with an upper wall of the track. The toggle device includes a swingable handle and a link element that swings through an arc to an overcenter position in which the shoe is firmly clamped to the track. The clamp mechanism is readily operated to the locked or unlocked position. Adjustments are incorporated into the link elements for varying the clamping force.
