Pallet construction with RFID/GPS tracking, light and sound locating features, in combination with magnetic stack-ability

A pallet, comprising:

• a body having a rectangular upper support surface and a plurality of downwardly extending support feet;
• a plurality of edge or corner defined mating locations established between upper and lower surfaces of each of first and second identically constructed pallet bodies arranged in a stacked arrangement, such that the second identically configured pallet is capable of being seated in supporting fashion upon the first pallet;
• and
• a first sub-plurality of said magnets, each displace-ably supported upon a spring in turn secured to a selected one of said upper or lower surface proximate locations of each of said bodies, a second and equal sub-plurality of said magnets secured to the other selected one of said upper or lower surface locations of each of said bodies such that, upon stacking a second pallet upon a first identically configured pallet, said first and second sub-pluralities of magnets are in opposing alignment with attracting forces exerted between said magnets causing said first sub plurality of magnets to displace into seating contact with said second sub-plurality of magnets.

A pallet, comprising:

• a molded body which integrates a plurality of structurally supporting and reinforcing members, including first and second interior grid extending members, said body having a rectangular upper support surface and a plurality of downwardly extending support feet;
• first and second sub-pluralities of magnets of opposite polarity distributed across each of upper and lower surfaces of each of first and second identically configured and stacked bodies for facilitating inter-attraction between said bodies in a non-use position;
• and
• a selected one of said sub-pluralities of magnets of said first body being displaceable relative to said first body into seating contact with said other selected sub-plurality of magnets of said second stacked body which opposes said displaceable magnets of said first body.
