Claims20
A pallet comprising:
- a base comprising a length extending between a first end and a second end opposite the first end and a width transverse to the length;
- a cage removably coupled to the base and comprising a first side coupled to a back side coupled to a second side;
- a gate forming a front side of the cage that is removably connected to the first side of the cage and the second side of the cage, wherein the gate has a multiplicity of slats interconnected in a scissoring lattice-type structure configured to extend within a plane of the front side between a compact, collapsed narrow configuration to an expanded, wider configuration extending between the first second and the second side of the cage, and
- at least one shelf coupled to the cage by an adjustable coupling configured to adjust the at least one shelf along a vertical dimension relative to the cage creating a first space under the at least one shelf having a first height and a second space above the at least one shelf having a second height, the first and second heights of the first and second spaces being adjustable based upon a selected vertical position of the adjustable coupling,
- wherein the adjustable coupling comprises a first plurality of apertures on the first side of the cage and at least a first fixator configured to insert through at least one of the first plurality of apertures, a second plurality of apertures on the second side of the cage and at least a second fixator configured to insert through at least one of the second plurality of apertures, to fix the shelf at the selected vertical position preventing relative movement between the cage and the at least one shelf.
