Transport frame

A transport frame for transporting cargo in combination with a mounting base, wherein,

• the mounting base comprises a plurality of mounting extensions, each mounting extension including at least one of a transport protrusion and a locking clamp, each one of the transport protrusion and the locking clamp having a first height;
• and
• said transport frame comprises:
• a bottom section having a substantially rectangular shape, the bottom section defining four elongated sides;
• four walls, each of the four walls extending from a different one of the four elongated sides in a first direction substantially perpendicular to the bottom section, the four walls defining four corner edges extending in the first direction;
• a corner pole disposed along each of the four corner edges;
• and
• a corner casting disposed at a bottom of each corner pole, a bottom surface of each corner casting being upwardly displaced from a bottom surface of the bottom section by the first height to form a notch located immediately below each corner casting;
• wherein the transport frame mounts on the mounting base with each of the notches mated with a corresponding one of the transport protrusion and the locking clamp;
• and
• wherein with the notches mated with the corresponding one of the transport protrusion and the locking clamp, (i) the bottom surface of each corner casting lies flush against a top surface of the corresponding one of the transport protrusion and the locking clamp, and (ii) the bottom surface of the bottom section lies flush against a top surface of the mounting base, the bottom section being unbent.

A transport frame for transporting cargo, and for mating with a mounting base comprising a plurality of mounting extensions, each mounting extension having a first height, said transport frame comprising:

• a bottom section having a substantially rectangular shape, the bottom section defining four elongated sides;
• four walls, each of the four walls extending from a different one of the four elongated sides in a first direction substantially perpendicular to the bottom section, the four walls defining four corner edges extending in the first direction;
• a corner pole disposed along each of the four corner edges;
• and
• a corner casting disposed at a bottom of each corner pole, a bottom surface of each corner casting being upwardly displaced from a bottom surface of the bottom section by the first height to form a notch located immediately below each corner casting,
• wherein, when mated with the mounting base, i) each of the notches mate with a corresponding one of the mounting extensions, and ii) the bottom surface of each corner casting lies flush against a top surface of the corresponding one mounting extension, and the bottom surface of the bottom section lies flush against a top surface of the mounting base, the bottom section being unbent.
