Abstract

In order to be able to fix a small or medium-sized container directly to securing elements present on vehicle loading surfaces for ISO containers as well as to insert it in ISO containers or container frames, only one (23) of two fittings (23, 27) present at opposite ends of the container is attached rigidly while the other one (27) can be pivoted between an operating position, in which it projects over the outer dimension of the container, and a position of rest in which it is situated within the outer dimension of the container. <IMAGE>

Description

Ein Frachtcontainer mit den im ersten Teil des Anspruchs 1 angegebenen Merkmalen ist aus EP-A-0 401 635 bekannt. Wie dort erläutert, sind an Ladeflächen von Eisenbahnwaggons oder Kraftfahrzeugen Arretierungsdorne bzw. Drehschlösser in einer bestimmten Anordnung vorgesehen, bei der sich an mehreren Stellen zwei benachbarte Arretierungselemente im Abstand von ca. 280 mm ergeben. Beim Stand der Technik wird diese Tatsache zum Fixieren von Klein- oder Mittelcontainern ausgenutzt, die keine Normmaße aufweisen und sich daher nicht an Arretierungselemente an allen vier Ecken ankoppeln lassen, dennoch wegen der Fixierung an insgesamt vier Punkten kippfest arretiert werden können.A freight container with the features specified in the first part of claim 1 is known from EP-A-0 401 635. As explained there, locking pins or rotary locks are provided on the loading surfaces of railway wagons or motor vehicles in a specific arrangement, in which two adjacent locking elements result at a distance of approximately 280 mm at several points. In the prior art, this fact is used to fix small or medium-sized containers that have no standard dimensions and therefore cannot be coupled to locking elements at all four corners, but can still be locked in a tilt-proof manner due to the fixing at a total of four points.

Bei dem bekannten Tankcontainer sind die beiden Doppel- oder Mehrfachbeschläge an zwei gegenüberliegenden Containerseiten starr befestigt und ragen über das Tankmaß hinaus. Bei geschickter Anordnung und Weglassung einzelner Rungen lassen sie sich auch zu mehreren auf einem Flat anordnen, das seinerseits normgerechte Eckbeschläge aufweisen kann. Eine Aufnahme der bekannten Klein- oder Mittelcontainer in einem ISO-gerechten Containerrahmen etwa gemäß DE-U-8 401 788 ist jedoch wegen der herausragenden Beschläge nicht möglich.In the known tank container, the two double or multiple fittings are rigidly attached to two opposite container sides and protrude beyond the tank dimensions. With skillful arrangement and omission of individual stanchions, they can also be arranged in groups on a flat, which in turn can have standard corner fittings. However, it is not possible to accommodate the known small or medium-sized containers in an ISO-compliant container frame, for example in accordance with DE-U-8 401 788, because of the outstanding fittings.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Frachtcontainer anzugeben, der sich einerseits unmittelbar an Arretierungselementen, wie sie auf Fahrzeugladeflächen zum Transport von ISO-Ladeeinheiten vorgesehen sind, fixieren und andererseits auch in ISO-Container oder -Containerrahmen einsetzen läßt.The invention is based on the object of specifying a freight container which, on the one hand, can be fixed directly to locking elements, such as are provided on vehicle loading areas for the transport of ISO loading units, and on the other hand can also be used in ISO containers or container frames.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe ist in Anspruch 1 gekennzeichnet. Die Klappfähigkeit (mindestens) eines der an beiden Enden des Containers vorgesehenen Mehrfachbeschläge führt in der Arretierstellung des betreffenden Beschlags zu einem Gesamtmaß, bei dem der Mittenabstand zwischen den Öffnungen der beiden Beschläge dem ISO-Maß von 2259 mm entspricht, während in der weggeklappten Ruhestellung ein Container-Außenmaß erreicht wird, das das Einsetzen dieses Containers in einen ISO-gerechten Container oder Containerrahmen gestattet.The solution to this problem is characterized in claim 1. The folding ability (at least) one of the at both ends The multiple fittings provided for in the container result in an overall dimension in the locking position of the fitting in question, in which the center distance between the openings of the two fittings corresponds to the ISO dimension of 2259 mm, while in the folded-away rest position, an outer container dimension is achieved which enables this to be inserted Containers allowed in an ISO-compliant container or container frame.

Bei der Weiterbildung der Erfindung nach Anspruch 2 und 3 wird eine in mechanischer Hinsicht unaufwendige Lösung erreicht. Zwar führt diese dazu, daß der Container bei seiner direkten Arretierung an einer Fahrzeugladefläche mit seinem Schwerpunkt gegenüber der Längsachse der Ladefläche leicht seitlich versetzt ist, doch beträgt diese Asymmetrie bei typischen Dimensionierungen nur ca. 80 mm und ist tolerierbar. Bei im Verkehr üblicher paarweiser Verladung und gegenseitige Drehung der beiden Container um 180° gleicht sich diese Asymmetrie sogar völlig aus.In the development of the invention according to claims 2 and 3, a mechanically uncomplicated solution is achieved. Although this leads to the container being slightly laterally offset with its center of gravity relative to the longitudinal axis of the loading area when it is directly locked to a vehicle loading area, this asymmetry is only about 80 mm in typical dimensions and is tolerable. This asymmetry is evenly compensated for when the two containers are loaded in pairs and the containers are rotated by 180 °.

Die Ausgestaltung der Erfindung nach Anspruch 4 ergibt die Möglichkeit einer tragfähigen Abstützung des Containers auf dem klappbaren Beschlag, wobei die Schwenkachse in senkrechter und horizontaler Richtung innerhalb des Containerprofils liegt und damit gegen Beschädigung geschützt ist.The embodiment of the invention according to claim 4 gives the possibility of a stable support of the container on the hinged fitting, the pivot axis lying in the vertical and horizontal directions within the container profile and is therefore protected against damage.

Anspruch 5 zeigt eine mechanisch günstige Gestaltung der Erfindung in Zusammenhang mit einem Tankcontainer.Claim 5 shows a mechanically favorable design of the invention in connection with a tank container.

Die Weiterbildung der Erfindung nach Anspruch 6 und 7 erhöht die Anzahl der Positionen, in denen sich der Container an den auf der Ladefläche vohandenen Arretierungselementen fixieren läßt.The development of the invention according to claims 6 and 7 increases the number of positions in which the container can be fixed to the locking elements on the loading surface.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung wird nachstehend anhand der Zeichnungen näher erläutert, in denen Figur 1 eine Draufsicht und Figur 2 eine Seitenansicht eines Frachtcontainers zeigt.An embodiment of the invention is explained below with reference to the drawings, in which Figure 1 shows a plan view and Figure 2 shows a side view of a freight container.

Der in den Zeichnungen dargestellte Container besteht im wesentlichen aus einem liegenden zylindrischen Tank 10 mit stirnseitigen Böden 11, einem oberen Mannlochstutzen 12, einer weiteren oben angeordneten Armatur 13 und einem unteren Auslauf 14.The container shown in the drawings essentially consists of a lying cylindrical tank 10 with end bottoms 11, an upper manhole spigot 12, a further fitting 13 arranged at the top and a lower outlet 14.

Über am unteren Bereich des Tankmantels angesetzte Träger 15 stützt sich der Tank 10 auf ein rechteckiges Fußteil 16, das von zwei Gabelstaplerkanälen 17 durchsetzt wird. Wie in die Draufsicht der Figur 1 mit strichpunktierten Linien eingezeichnet, hat das reckeckige Fußteil 16 Außenabmessungen, die etwa nur die Hälfte der Außenabmessungen des Tanks betragen. Mit diesem Fußteil läßt sich der Tank in eine Aussparung eines ISO-Containerrahmens (etwa gemäß DE 84 01 788 U1) einsetzen.The carrier 10 is supported on a rectangular base part 16, which is penetrated by two fork-lift truck channels 17, via a carrier 15 attached to the lower region of the tank jacket. As shown in dash-dotted lines in the top view of FIG. 1, the rectangular foot part has 16 outer dimensions, which are only about half the outer dimensions of the tank. With this foot section, the tank can be inserted into a recess in an ISO container frame (for example according to DE 84 01 788 U1).

An jeden Tankboden 11 ist ein Sattelring 20 mit seinem zur Längsachse 21 des Tanks 10 parallel verlaufenden Axialflansch angeschweißt. An den Radialflansch des gemäß Figur 1 und 2 linken Sattelrings sind ferner zwei stehende Winkelschienen 22 angeschweißt, die oben etwas oberhalb des Profils des Mannlochstutzens 12 und der Armatur 13 und unten im Bereich der von der Unterfläche des Fußteils 16 definierten Grundebene des Containers enden. Werden auch am anderen Sattelring Eckstützen vorgesehen (was in den Zeichnungen nicht dargestellt ist), so ergeben sich ein Überrollschutz und eine Stapelbarkeit.A saddle ring 20 is welded to each tank bottom 11 with its axial flange running parallel to the longitudinal axis 21 of the tank 10. On the radial flange of the left saddle ring according to Figures 1 and 2, two standing angle rails 22 are also welded, which end slightly above the profile of the manhole connector 12 and the fitting 13 and below in the area of the base plane of the container defined by the lower surface of the foot part 16. If corner supports are also provided on the other seat ring (which is not shown in the drawings), rollover protection and stackability result.

Am unteren Ende einer der beiden Winkelschienen 22 ist ein Beschlag 23 starr befestigt, der als eine parallel zur Querachse 24 des Tanks 10 verlaufende längliche Platte mit insgesamt vier länglichen Öffnungen 25 und zwei stirnseitigen Aussparungen 26 gestaltet ist. Die Langloch-Form der Öffnungen 25 entspricht der von ISO-Drehschlössern bei einem allseitigen Spiel von 3 mm.At the lower end of one of the two angle rails 22, a fitting 23 is rigidly attached, which is designed as an elongated plate running parallel to the transverse axis 24 of the tank 10 with a total of four elongated openings 25 and two end-side recesses 26. The elongated hole shape of the openings 25 corresponds to that of ISO rotary locks with an all-round play of 3 mm.

Ein zweiter Beschlag 27 in Form einer ähnlich gestalteten, jedoch in Richtung der Längsachse 21 des Tanks 10 breiteren Platte ist an dem in Figur 1 und 2 rechten Stirnende des Containers vorgesehen.A second fitting 27 in the form of a similarly designed plate, but wider in the direction of the longitudinal axis 21 of the tank 10, is provided on the right end of the container in FIGS. 1 and 2.

Dieser Beschlag 27 ist mit zwei (oder auch mehreren) senkrecht nach oben ragenden etwa dreieckigen Stützplatten 28 versehen, die durch eine am unteren Bereich des Radialflansches des rechten Sattelrings 20 vorhandene Lageranordnung um eine zur Querachse 24 des Tanks 10 parallele Schwenkachse 29 drehbar gelagert sind. Auf diese Weise läßt sich der Beschlag 27 aus der in Figur 2 in ausgezogenen Linien gezeigten Arretierstellung um 90° in die in Figur 2 gestrichelt gezeigt Ruhestellung nach oben klappen. Zur Fixierung des Beschlags 27 sowohl in der Arretierstellung als auch in der Ruhestellung sind (nicht gezeigte) Arretiereinrichtungen vorgesehen.This fitting 27 is provided with two (or more) vertically upwardly extending approximately triangular support plates 28, which are rotatably supported by a bearing arrangement provided on the lower region of the radial flange of the right seat ring 20 about a pivot axis 29 parallel to the transverse axis 24 of the tank 10. In this way, the fitting can 27 from the locking position shown in solid lines in FIG. 2 by 90 ° to the rest position shown in broken lines in FIG. 2. To fix the fitting 27 both in the locking position and in the rest position (not shown) locking devices are provided.

Bei beiden Beschlägen 23 und 27 beträgt der Mittenabstand benachbarter Öffnungen 25 jeweils 140 mm. Die Stegbreite zwischen benachbarten Öffnungen 25 stimmt mit der Stegbreite zwischen der jeweils letzten Öffnung 25 und der benachbarten stirnseitigen Aussparung 26 überein. Auf diese Weise läßt sich der Container in vier verschiedenen Positionen an zwei an der jeweiligen Fahrzeugladefläche im Abstand von ca. 280 mm vorhandenen Arretierungselementen (Dornen oder Drehschlössern) fixieren.In both fittings 23 and 27, the center distance between adjacent openings 25 is 140 mm. The web width between adjacent openings 25 corresponds to the web width between the respective last opening 25 and the adjacent front recess 26. In this way, the container can be fixed in four different positions to two locking elements (spikes or rotary locks) on the respective vehicle bed at a distance of approx. 280 mm.

Da ferner die beiden Beschläge 23 und 27 gegenüber der Längsachse 21 des Tanks asymmetrisch angeordnet sind, ergeben sich durch Drehen des Containers um 180° insgesamt acht verschiedene Positionen, in denen sich der Container an der Ladefläche arretieren läßt.Furthermore, since the two fittings 23 and 27 are arranged asymmetrically with respect to the longitudinal axis 21 of the tank, turning the container through 180 ° results in a total of eight different positions in which the container can be locked on the loading area.

Wie in Figur 1 eingezeichnet, weist der Tank eine Gesamtlänge von ca. 2200 mm auf. Der starr befestigte linke Beschlag 23 liegt innerhalb dieses Außenmaßes. Wie aus Figur 2 hervorgeht, befindet sich auch der rechte Beschlag 27 in der hochgeklappten Ruhestellung innerhalb des Außenmaßes von 2200 mm. In dieser Stellung läßt sich der Tankcontainer in einen ISO-Container oder -Containerrahmen (z.B. Stückgut-Box, Flat mit Rungen oder auch Kühlcontainer) einsetzen.As shown in Figure 1, the tank has a total length of approximately 2200 mm. The rigidly attached left fitting 23 lies within this external dimension. As can be seen from FIG. 2, the right fitting 27 is also in the folded-up rest position within the external dimension of 2200 mm. In this position, the tank container can be inserted into an ISO container or container frame (e.g. general cargo box, flat with stanchions or even refrigerated containers).

In der in Figur 1 gezeigten Arbeitsstellung des rechten Beschlags 27 beträgt dagegen die Gesamtlänge des Containers einschließlich dieses Beschlags 27 ca. 2359 mm. Dieses Maß liegt innerhalb der Gesamtbreite von ISO-Containern. Der Mittenabstand zwischen den Öffnungen 25 der gegenüberliegenden Beschläge 23 und 27 beträgt ca. 2259 mm, was dem Abstand der Arretierungselemente auf Fahrzeugladeflächen für ISO-Container entspricht.In contrast, in the working position of the right fitting 27 shown in FIG. 1, the total length of the container including this fitting 27 is approximately 2359 mm. This measure is within the overall width of ISO containers. The center distance between the openings 25 of the opposite fittings 23 and 27 is approximately 2259 mm, which corresponds to the distance of the locking elements on vehicle loading areas for ISO containers.
