Abstract
A pallet for transporting a load having a deck and two skids removably mounted under the deck for supporting the deck and screw jacks which make it possible to vary the height of the deck relative to the ground. The deck is capable of supporting the weight of the load when it is carried by the screw jacks. Right angle brackets fasten the load to the deck. Depalletization consists of removing the skids by raising the deck via the screw jacks, then lowering the deck and moving the load in horizontal translation. The invention applies most particularly to the transport of heavy, bulky or fragile objects such as cabinets of data processing machines.
