Definitions

  • the invention is in the field of waterproof multipurpose containers. It relates more particularly to improvements to containers intended for the transport under an inert or controlled atmosphere of perishable materials, for example bulky or powdery products in bulk, such as agricultural food products.
  • containers of this type are described, the sealing of which allows multiple uses, in particular the transport under an inert or controlled atmosphere of perishable products, said containers have in purpose a corresponding opening as well as a door allowing sealing said opening.
  • the introduction of an inert gas at one end of the container and its exit at the other end, after sweeping the ambient gaseous medium is not carried out satisfactorily because it forms preferential passage zones, in particular in the vicinity of the walls, said zones not making it possible to carry out a rigorous control of the internal atmosphere of the container. It follows that the air capable of causing harmful effects on the products to be transported can remain inside the container.
  • An object of the invention is to obviate this drawback of the containers of the prior art, by producing a sealed container provided with an inert gas diffusion device previously conditioned, inside a mass of powdered product loaded in said container, thereby subtracting the products transported from the harmful effects of ambient air, certain constituents of which, such as oxygen and water vapor, are most often responsible for the degradation of the products stored in the container.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a sealed container provided with the device for diffusing the abovementioned gases, in which a new design of the floor of the container allows the installation of the diffusion device, while eliminating the difficulties of laying ur device, difficulties resulting from the presence of fork passages which must equip the container bottoms.
  • the present invention therefore relates to a waterproof container for multiple uses, in particular for the transport under an inert or controlled atmosphere of perishable materials, which may be in the form of heavy or powdery products, such as agricultural food products, container in which are provided respectively gas intake and expulsion systems from the container, the latter also comprising an inert gas diffusion device inside the container, constituted by a peripheral gas supply system, which is advantageously constituted by the tubular framework of the container, this system being further connected to a plurality of lateral conduits connected to removable diffusion ramps in whole or in part, arranged in a central area of the floor of the container at an appropriate distance from the walls of the container ci, so as to avoid the formation of preferential gas passage zones at said walls of the container.
  • a peripheral gas supply system which is advantageously constituted by the tubular framework of the container, this system being further connected to a plurality of lateral conduits connected to removable diffusion ramps in whole or in part, arranged in a central area of the floor of the container at an appropriate distance from the walls of
  • the lateral conduits come out connected to the right of the tubes of the framework and arranged on either side of the walls of the receiver, each conduit being connected to at least one diffusion ramp.
  • On each ramp are provided a plurality of holes or diffusing bores formed in the upper zone of the ramp.
  • the side conduits are formed by gutters formed in the floor of the container and on which are sealed sections, while the diffusion ramps are formed by the extensions of the gutters of the lateral conduits , on which are removably mounted profiles pierced with a plurality of holes or diffusion bores, a regulating device, advantageously constituted by a tube extending in the diffusion ramp, is provided in the connection zone between the lateral conduits and the diffusion ramps, respectively.
  • valves of the gas intake and expulsion systems of the container are arranged in the same place on a wall of said container, allowing joint sealing of the two valves at customs.
  • the sealed container according to the invention has a generally parallelepiped shape and its frame 2 is made up of tubes in hollow profile. At least one longitudinal tubular profile 2a, 2b of the framework at floor level is connected by lateral conduits 3 to removable ramps 4 arranged in a central region of the floor of the container, at a certain distance from the walls of the latter, as shown in Figures 1 and 2.
  • the central part of the gutters 6 is covered with a profile of corresponding shape 8 which is inserted therein by force in a removable manner.
  • a series of holes or diffusion bores 9 are formed, thus defining for each gutter of the floor of the profile a central diffusion ramp.
  • connection solution consists of a plate 10 axially bored and welded at one end of each lateral duct 3 and to which is connected a tube 11 forming a sleeve and extending substantially coaxially with the inside the corresponding diffusion ramp 4.
  • gutters 6 are arranged on the floor so as not to interfere with the fork passage zones 12.
  • Figure 1 are also shown in a corner area of a side wall of the container the inlet valves 13 and expulsion 14 of the container gas.
  • One of the gases from the container is made possible by the use of the frame in tubular section 2 of the container of the invention for the admission and evacuation of said gases.
  • Such an arrangement makes it possible to have to use only one sealing point for these two valves.
  • the inert gas is made to flow from the inlet valve 13 to the diffusion ramps through the neighboring upright 15 of said valve. It then progresses along the adjacent lower tubular beam 2a of the frame 2 which serves as a distributor.
  • the lateral conduits 3 opening into the diffusion ramps 4 are connected directly to the tubular sections 2a or 2b.
  • the insufflation therefore comes from these conduits 3 via the tubular section concerned.
  • the inlet valve 13 can communicate simul simultaneously with each of the tubular sections 2a and 2b by the adjacent vertical uprights 15 and 16 and inject neutral gas at each of the ends of each diffusion ramp 4.
