Pallet base, intermediate bulk container, method of assembly of an intermediate bulk container, runner and deck structure - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240034512 titled 'Pallet base, intermediate bulk container, method of assembly of an intermediate bulk container, runner and deck structure

Simplified Explanation

The abstract of the patent application describes a pallet base for intermediate bulk containers (IBCs) that helps overcome the problem of expensive transportation and storage space requirements. The pallet base consists of a deck structure with a top surface defining a load area for supporting an IBC container, at least one foot structure extending from the bottom surface, and at least one runner structure that engages with the foot structure using a snap-fit mechanism.

  • The pallet base is designed to support IBC containers and reduce the need for excessive storage space during transportation.
  • The deck structure provides a stable and secure load area for the IBC container.
  • The foot structure extends from the bottom surface of the deck structure to provide stability and support.
  • The runner structure engages with the foot structure using a snap-fit mechanism, ensuring a secure connection between the pallet base and the IBC container.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Transportation and storage of intermediate bulk containers.
  • Logistics and supply chain management.
  • Warehousing and distribution.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Expensive transportation and storage costs associated with intermediate bulk containers.
  • Limited storage space for transporting and storing IBC containers.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Cost savings in transportation and storage.
  • Efficient use of storage space.
  • Secure and stable support for IBC containers during transportation.


Original Abstract Submitted

transportation of the various parts of intermediate bulk containers requires a lot of storage space and is thus expensive. this problem is overcome by a pallet base (), in particular a pallet base () of an intermediate bulk container (ibc) (), comprising: —a deck structure (″) with a top surface () and a bottom surface (), the top surface defining a load area () adapted to support an ibc container (); —at least one foot structure (″) extending from the bottom surface (); further comprising at least one runner structure (), the at least one runner structure () configured to engage with the at least one foot structure (″), preferably using a snap-fit mechanism ().
