Definitions

  • a freight container with the features specified in the first part of claim 1 is known from DE-C-18 08 755.
  • Such containers are used to transport flowable goods and are characterized by a high usable volume within the overall dimensions defined by the frame.
  • curved shell elements which are preferably curved around vertical axes in the side and end faces, a useful strength is also achieved.
  • Bitumen which is used particularly in road construction, has so far been transported in individual drums.
  • the bitumen is filled at temperatures from 180 to 200 ° C and solidifies during transport.
  • the drums are heated at their destination so that the bitumen melts and the drums can be emptied.
  • the invention has for its object to develop the known freight container so that it is suitable for the large transport of such substances that require tempering (heating or cooling) before emptying and / or during transport.
  • the solution to this problem according to the invention is characterized in claim 1.
  • the then formed by the frame elements in connection with the container wall-shell elements, lying within the container interior and approximately triangular in cross-section allow the introduction of a heating or cooling medium for temperature control of the container content before its removal, without additional, the tare weight of the Freight container-increasing construction elements are required.
  • angle rails which are light in themselves and supplemented by edge areas of the shell elements for closed profiles, the inherent rigidity of the container frame is increased without increasing weight.
  • At least the two lower frame elements running in the longitudinal direction of the container will be designed in the manner according to the invention as channels for conducting a temperature control medium.
  • tubular tie rods which penetrate the interior of the container also serve the above two purposes, namely both the conduction of a heating or cooling medium and the stiffening of the frame structure.
  • the embodiment of the invention according to claim 3 not only leads to a further stiffening of the frame while reducing the stresses occurring in the longitudinal edges, but also to an increase in the surface area available for heat exchange with the container contents.
  • the connectors provided according to claim 3 form anti-surge elements.
  • claims 4 and 5 serve a simple manufacture with high strength of the container.
  • a further increase in strength is achieved by the outer corner supports specified in claim 6, which can also be used according to claim 7 as holders for an outer container insulation.
  • the container frame is constructed from two lower longitudinal spars 10, two upper longitudinal spars 11, two lower transverse spars 12, two upper transverse spars 13 and four corner elements 14.
  • the ends of the cross bars 12, 13 and the corner elements 14 are connected to corner fittings 15 provided at all eight corners.
  • the longitudinal bars 10, 11 are, as can be seen from FIG. 1, connected to the respective corner elements 14 at locations which are offset inwards (i.e. upwards or downwards) with respect to the corner fittings 15.
  • the container jacket is formed by shell elements which are curved outwards and are inserted between the frame elements.
  • the container width is spanned by a single bottom shell 16 and a single cover shell 17.
  • the bottom shell 16 and the cover shell 17 are curved about axes parallel to the longitudinal axis of the container.
  • the bottom shell 16 and the cover shell 17 are composed of several sheet metal sections in the longitudinal direction, frame cross braces being able to be inserted between individual sections, as is the case with the container according to DE-C-18 08 755.
  • the side shells 19, 20 forming the container side walls are curved around vertical axes. Depending on the container length, two or more shells in the longitudinal direction are also required here; this also corresponds to the extent of the structure of the container according to DE-C-18 08 755.
  • the side shell 20 shown in FIG. 2 below has a continuous, outwardly convex curvature, while the side shell 19 shown in FIG. 2 above has concave edges in its edge regions Counter curvatures is provided.
  • All twelve frame elements 10 ... 14 consist of L-profile or angle rails, with their two legs each point outwards.
  • the horizontal legs of the lower and upper longitudinal spars 10, 11 are approximately twice as wide as their vertical legs.
  • the width of the vertical legs of the lower and upper cross members 12, 13 is chosen so that it at least corresponds to the curvature height of the bottom or top shell 16, 17.
  • the shells 16, 17 can therefore be butt welded to the vertical legs of the cross bars 12, 13.
  • the extent to which the longitudinal spars 10, 11 are offset inwards with respect to the container outer dimensions is also selected such that the bottom shell 16 and the cover shell 17 can be welded to both free edges of the longitudinal spars 10, 11 in their edge regions with continuous curvature. This results in a total of four closed channels 21 with a substantially triangular cross section in the longitudinal direction of the container, which lie almost completely within the container interior formed by all the shell elements.
  • FIG. 1 it is also shown that the vertical legs of the two lower longitudinal spars 10 are connected to one another by tubes 22 which pass horizontally through the interior of the container.
  • the longitudinal bars 10 are provided with bores in the areas to which the tubes 22 are welded, so that the channels 21 communicate with one another via the tubes 22.
  • FIG. 1 Another horizontal connecting pipe 23 is partially shown in the upper left part of FIG. 1 and connects the vertical legs of the upper longitudinal spars 11 to one another. Furthermore, a vertical tube 24 is shown in the left part of FIG. 1, which connects the horizontal legs of the lower left longitudinal spar 10 and the upper left longitudinal spar 11 to one another. This tube 24 also runs within the side shell 19 or 20 and is therefore located entirely within the container interior.
  • the leg pointing in the longitudinal direction of the container is approximately half as wide as the leg extending in the transverse direction.
  • the front shell 18 can be with continuous curvature in its edge areas with the vertical free edges of both Weld the legs of the corner elements 14 so that channels 21 with a closed, essentially triangular cross-section are also formed here.
  • the front shell 18 is welded at its upper and at its lower edge to the horizontal leg of the cross bars 13 and 12 respectively.
  • a diagonal connecting plate 25 inserted between the horizontal tube 22 and the vertical tube 24 is shown.
  • Such connecting pieces 25, which can also be designed as tubes, can also be provided in the other four corner areas and at several locations in the longitudinal direction of the container.
  • the described unequal leg length of the corner elements 14 shown in FIG. 2 leaves space in the outermost corner area for tubular corner supports 26, each of which connects a lower corner fitting 15 to an upper corner fitting 15. As a result, the frame structure is further stiffened. At the same time, the outwardly round corner supports 26 can be used to wrap the tank with an insulating sleeve (not shown).
  • the channels 21 formed in the longitudinal spars 10, 11, in the corner elements 14 and possibly also in the transverse spars 12, 13 form a pipeline system connected via the connecting tubes 22... 24 for guiding a temperature control medium.
  • this piping system with inlet and outlet is connected for connection to an external supply device with a circulation pump and heating or cooling unit.
  • the freight container is used, for example, to transport bitumen, it is connected to a heating system upon arrival at the destination, which sends thermal oil through the piping system of the container.
  • flow guiding devices can be provided in the different connection areas of the channels 21 with the tubes 22... 24.
