  • the arms 274 are then pivoted upwards in the vertical direction, wherein they are locked in a well-defined position by means of the locking lever 280.
  • the Containers 6 are now moved towards each other by actuating one of the cranks 266, that the threaded rods of the assemblies 270 through the elongated holes in the corner fittings 4 protrude into it. It is advantageous that the middle between those moving towards each other Containers remains stationary.
  • a motorized drive of the Adapter sleeves can be integrated.
  • the pivoting of the arms 274 and the drive the pinion or gears 264 motorized so that an even faster and more comfortable operation is possible.
  • the spring clip assemblies 278 can do this be expanded that by further swivel arms provided on them, which also can be operated by motor, the hammer pieces introduced into the interior of the corner fittings can be, so that the entire operation of the device is automated or central can be controlled.
  • the arms 274 can be omitted entirely.
  • Containers other than 6.1 m containers can also be connected to one another, for example four 3.05 m (10 foot) containers to form a 12.2 m container, two 3.05 (10 foot) containers a 6.1 m container etc.
