摘要： A winding or storage reel for large, continuous lengths of flexible materials such as cable, rope or paper is collapsible into substantially flat components for recycling transport. The reel core is preferably twin sheet, vacuum formed of thermoplastic sheet material and comprises a plurality of laterally hinged stave elements in substantially circular alignment between a pair of end flanges. Threaded assembly rods compress the core stave elements between the end flanges. The adjacent lateral edges of the several stave elements are parallel to the core axis and are flexibly joined to hinge about an axis parallel to the lateral edge. One pair of laterally adjacent edges in the core circle are non-pivotally joined by respectively meshing fingers. Two integral plastic sheets respective to inside and outside shell walls are thermoformed to integrate all or several stave elements and hinges into a continuously single component that can be manually formed into the closed perimeter of the reel core cylinder for support of an over-wrapped material. For return transport, the closed perimeter of the core component is opened along the joint edge and developed to a substantially flat configuration.

摘要： An enclosed pallet unit comprises an assembly of two basic components that are twin sheet molded from high density polymer sheet material. Substantially identical pallet platforms serve as both the floor and roof of the assembly. A plurality of substantially identical load bearing wall units are slide bolt locked to both the floor and roof pallet platforms. Each load bearing wall unit is divided into two, twin sheet panels that are joined longitudinally by a strip portion of the opposite side sheets being fused together to form a hinge axis. A wall unit is socketed in receptacle channels adjacent each corner respective to the floor and roof pallets with each panel of a respective wall unit radiating substantially 90.degree. from the panel hinge axis. Additional wall units may be used midway along either or both pairs of pallet edges with one panel of each wall unit aligned parallel with the pallet edge and the other panel of a respective unit turned substantially 90.degree. to the pallet edge.
