Ladungsplatte, Frachtplatte, Kargoplatte usw.
Explanation:
These are definitely not Tieflader.
The original sentence continue with the following paragraph.
A freight carrier of this type is already known, for example, from our U.S. Pat. No: 3,568,608, and the carrier comprises a substantially flat, rectangular base structure having a post member at each corner thereof which is pivotally mounted on the base structure so as to be capable of being selectively moved between a folded position, in which the post lies parallel to and adjacent to the base structure and an erected position in which the post is perpendicular to or substantially perpendicular to the base structure, that is upright in the normal orientation of the carrier.

It is explained further on the reference web page https://patents.google.com/patent/US3735713 as follows:

A cargo transporting device which comprises a platform and frame assembly having at longitudinally opposite ends bulkheads, which in an upright position relative to the base, permit the handling and transporting of cargo secured to the platform.

According to Oxford Dictionary at https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/flat

flat : An upright section of stage scenery mounted on a movable frame.

According to https://www.linguee.com/english-german/search?source=auto&qu...

flat : Platte (a kind of Plattform)

So it is a platform used for transportation.

I suggest Ladungsplatte, Frachtplatte, Kargoplatte usw. bzw. Ladungsplattform, Frachtplattform, Kargoplattform.
