Definitions

  • the invention relates to containers for transporting goods or equipment, including people and animals, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • ISO 1496 standardized containers are usually used to transport goods by sea, air or land.
  • the correspondingly standardized containers are used on container ships, on the corresponding rail wagons, on trucks and in airplanes.
  • the use of these conventional containers is preferred, since in this way the transport container is independent of the means of transport.
  • the cargo can therefore remain in the same transport container, even if the means of transport changes.
  • Through the worldwide use of the standardized container it is easily possible to change the means of transport. For example, it is common worldwide to load containers that have landed on the ship, for further transport on the train or on trucks.
  • the usual containers are usually made of metal, wood or plastic or combinations of these materials.
  • Containers manufactured in metal construction are assembled from metal sheets in welding or riveting technology in a supporting frame in such a way that the desired cuboid shape results. Furthermore, additional profiles are attached to stiffen the cuboid shape.
  • corner elements In the eight corners of the container are corner elements or connection elements (corner fittings), on which the container can be hung for loading, the corner elements also serving for the internationally standardized fastening of the container on the means of transport or the connection with other containers. Furthermore, the corner elements serve as standing areas for the parked container.
  • the empty weight of the usual "20-foot" container is approximately 2.5 T, so that there is a high energy requirement in particular when transported by train or ship, in which a large number of such containers are transported at the same time. This results in high transport costs, just for the transport of the empty transport container.
  • insulating containers which are constructed from a metal frame and are provided with a covering made of wood or metal, the interior being equipped with thermal insulation.
  • These insulated containers have the disadvantage that devices which are used, for example, to fasten the goods to be transported are connected to the metal frame. In this way there are thermal bridges that cause an undesirable transfer of heat.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of developing a generic container according to EP-A-0 349 667 in such a way that the dead weight is reduced and at the same time the strength is increased.
  • the self-supporting fiber sandwich structure ensures that the dynamic load capacity of the fiber-reinforced plastic container or LC container is above the maximum load capacity of a conventional container.
  • corner elements are provided which serve both to connect a container to another container and to fasten the LC container on the means of transport. Furthermore, the corner elements are used for loading the holding elements of the loading crane in the FK container.
  • holding devices and / or receiving devices according to claims 3 to 5 can be formed simultaneously with the container housing or integrated as prefabricated elements in the manufacture of the container housing.
  • the holding devices can be used, for example, for fastening the goods to be transported or also for living and Serve office facilities in the FK container. Furthermore, hinges for attaching the doors can also be provided as holding devices.
  • the holding devices can be attached at any point, which means that the LC container can be equipped as required in accordance with special requirements.
  • Main openings or additional openings of the container housing can be covered according to claims 6 to 12 with doors or locking devices which can be produced from the same material as the container housing in a corresponding fiber sandwich structure.
  • the locking mechanism of the doors can be arranged according to claim 7 within the fiber sandwich structure, whereby the locking mechanism is protected from dirt, icing and damage.
  • the LC container top layer is provided.
  • the outer cover layer protects it against environmental influences; the inner cover layer protects it against damage from the transport goods, the inner cover layer being neutral towards the transport goods.
  • the material used has heat-insulating properties, so that the LC container according to claims 13 to 16 is suitable as an insulating container.
  • the FK container can therefore be used as an insulating and living container without additional heat or cold insulation measures.
  • the construction method described enables the FK container described to be manufactured with high accuracy, it can also be sealed tightly (i.e. gas, water and dust tight) with simple means.
  • the holding devices made of fiber-reinforced plastic do not form any heat-conducting connections to the surroundings.
  • the attachment of metallic additional devices can also be carried out in the fiber sandwich structure in such a way that the formation of heat-conducting connections to the surroundings is avoided.
  • the FK container described consists of a self-supporting structure, it is possible according to claims 17 and 18 to mount movement elements on the corner elements without additional structural measures, such movement elements consisting, for example, of wheel sets.
  • the LC container can, for example, be attached to a tractor on road or rail and transported. After transportation, the wheel sets can then be stored on the tractor and removed for further use.
  • Fig. 1 shows the basic shape of the LC container.
  • This consists of a cuboid container housing 1, the dimensions of which correspond to the dimensions of a container manufactured, for example, according to ISO standard 1469.
  • the FK container is designed in one piece as a self-supporting construction.
  • the walls 2 forming the cuboid are produced as a sandwich shell, with the preferred use of glass fiber-reinforced resin.
  • Main openings 3 are formed on the end faces of the LC container, through which the interior of the LC container is accessible. These openings can be closed by means of doors 4. These doors 4 are usually made of the same material as the container housing 1 and are flush with the container housing 1.
  • Such a LC container can have about half the weight of a conventional metal container.
  • the fiber sandwich shell is composed of a maximum of five layers.
  • the outer Layer is formed by a first cover layer 11, followed by a first fiber layer 12, which is separated from a second fiber layer 14 by means of a support layer 13.
  • a second cover layer 15 is applied to the inner side of the second fiber layer 14.
  • the first cover layer 11 serves to protect the first fiber layer 12 against environmental influences, in particular against erosion, which would be caused by the fact that the first fiber layer 12 is exposed to the sun for a longer period of time or to direct contact with water.
  • the second cover layer 15 protects the second fiber layer 14 from damage that can result from direct contact with the goods to be transported.
  • the fiber layers 12 and 14 are made of wet, resin-impregnated fiber fabric, the fiber fabric being laid both along the direction of stress and transversely to the direction of stress. Because it is possible to bond fiber layers intimately to one another during processing, it is possible for the container housing 1 to be in one piece, i.e. without creating seams. Applying the fibers in two different directions of propagation ensures that crack formation is blocked. At the same time, the structure described ensures that the container housing absorbs a large area of force, the distance-retaining support layer 13 leading to a suitable force distribution between the first and second fabric layers.
  • the cuboidal LC container described is produced in such a way that the individual layers are built up one after the other in or on a mold.
  • the spacer-supporting layer 13 is preferably hard foam, which is either placed in the form of a finished plate between the first and the second fiber layer or is foamed directly between the two fiber layers. Once all layers have been applied, curing takes place under the application of pressure and temperature.
  • the corner elements 5, which are provided for a standardized fastening of the LC container on the means of transport, can be fitted into the fiber sandwich structure during manufacture in such a way that the self-supporting structure remains unaffected.
  • the doors 4 customary for such a LC container can be produced accordingly from the same materials with an identical layer sequence.
  • All other devices such as holding devices, door hinges 6 or door seals 7, can also be molded directly from LC material in the manufacture of the container housing 1 or the doors 4.
  • the LC container is excellently suited as an insulating container. This is supported by the fact that additionally provided devices are designed so that the formation of cold bridges is prevented.
  • the stable construction of the LC container offers the possibility of mounting movement elements on the corner elements 5, for which wheel sets are suitable, for example.
