Abstract
A knock-down device is presented for use in stacking wooden pallets, one above the other, in a manner to protect the wooden pallet against much of the damage usually encountered, and in a manner wherein the load from each pallet above the lowermost is transmitted through aligned corner posts to the supporting floor independently of the pallets. The completed device is usually composed of two identical complexes, each of which includes two adjacent sides of the stacker device arranged in such a manner that two generally L-shape structures, as seen in plan view, are secured together to form a complete rectangle in plan.
