Material handling system that is used to transport components from one location to another

Abstract

Some embodiments relate to a material handling system that is used to transport components from one location to another. The example material handling system includes a horizontal top bar and a horizontal bottom bar. A first side bar connects the horizontal top bar with the horizontal bottom bar and a second side bar connects the horizontal top bar with the horizontal bottom bar. The components are adapted to be connected to the horizontal bottom bar and the horizontal top bar.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A material handling system that is used to transport components from one location to another, the material handling system comprising:
 a horizontal top bar;   a horizontal bottom bar;   a first side bar connecting the horizontal top bar with the horizontal bottom;   a second side bar connecting the horizontal top bar with the horizontal bottom bar; and   wherein the components are adapted to be connected to the horizontal bottom bar and the horizontal top bar.   
     
     
         2 . The material handling system of  claim 1 , wherein the horizontal top bar and the horizontal bottom bar are linear. 
     
     
         3 . The material handling system of  claim 1 , wherein the first side bar and the second side bar are linear. 
     
     
         4 . The material handling system of  claim 3 , wherein the first side bar and the second side bar are vertical. 
     
     
         5 . The material handling system of  claim 3 , wherein the first side bar, the second side bar, the horizontal top bar and the horizontal bottom bar are connected together in a rectangular shape. 
     
     
         6 . The material handling system of  claim 1 , wherein the horizontal bottom bar is formed as a channel that includes a horizontal section that extends between a first side section and a second side section, and wherein a first set of components is secured to the first side section and a second set of components is secured to the second side section. 
     
     
         7 . The material handling system of  claim 1 , further comprising a spring that secures the components to the horizontal bottom bar such that the spring connects the components to the horizontal bottom bar. 
     
     
         8 . The material handling system of  claim 7 , further comprising a hook that is attached between the components and the spring such that the hook connects the components to the spring. 
     
     
         9 . The material handling system of  claim 1 , further comprising a load member that is attached to at least one of the horizontal top member and the first and second side members such that load member is positioned above the horizontal top member. 
     
     
         10 . The material handling system of  claim 9 , wherein the horizontal top member, the horizontal bottom member and the first and second side members hang from the load member. 
     
     
         11 . The material handling system of  claim 9 , wherein the load member includes a first support member at one end of the load member and a second support member at an opposing end of the load member, wherein the first and second support members are adapted to be received by a carrier. 
     
     
         12 . The material handling system of  claim 11 , wherein the first and second support members align the load member relative to the carrier.
