Definitions

  • the invention relates to a transport container for sheets intended for use as a transport container transporting sheets by ship, for example.
  • the invention relates especially to transporting large steel sheets.
  • Steel sheets of this kind are used in the shipbuilding industry, for example.
  • Such a steel sheet can be 2 to 3 m wide, approximately 12 m long and 5 to 15 mm thick, for instance.
  • An arrangement for transporting sheets by ship in which the sheets are loaded directly into a cargo space of a ship by lifting them one by one or in batches into the cargo space and fastening them there.
  • a problem with this arrangement is that when the sheets are lifted to the ship, they may bend, because there is no firm transport pallet underneath the sheets, in which the sheets can be lifted. Especially the edges of the sheets may be damaged, if the sheets are lifted on the edges.
  • US publication 5 809 906 disclosing a transport pallet for sheets, on which the sheets to be transported can be placed and on which the sheets can be lifted to the cargo space of a ship and transported by the ship.
  • US 3 802 357 on which the preamble of claim 1 is based, discloses such a transport container.
  • US 2425421 discloses a lifting device which can be used for moving articles having e.g. a square or oblong configuration.
  • the lifting device includes an upper structure to be placed on top of the articles.
  • Grab arms are arranged to the upper structure. The grab arms automatically grab the articles when the lifting device is lifted by crane or hoist.
  • the lifting device together with the articles is moved with the crane of hoist to desired spot where the articles are released.
  • the lifting device loaded with articles is lowered down on the ground, whereupon the grab arms automatically open and the articles will be released from the lifting device.
  • a mechanism prevents the grabbing arms from closing and the empty lifting device remains connected to the crane or hoist and can be moved to the desired spot.
  • the transport container of the invention is disclosed in claim 1.
  • the transport container of the invention comprises an upper structure that is intended to be placed on top of the sheets and movable supports that can be moved under the sheets. Owing to this, the transport container is easy to load.
  • the transport container comprises elements for fastening it in the cargo space of a ship or in any other transport means, it cannot move during a sea voyage, for instance.
  • the transport container is provided with elements enabling stacking it with other containers.
  • the transport container comprises a roof and walls.
  • the transport container is preferably a container open at the bottom, i.e. a container without a bottom, and has movable supports that can be moved under the sheets when the open-bottomed container is on top of the sheets.
  • the transport container comprises spring-loaded stops that are fastened to the bottom surface of the upper structure.
  • the spring-loaded stops are arranged to be loaded when the transport container is lifted on top of the sheets, i.e. the spring-loaded stops move upwards in such a manner that the distance between the upper structure and the spring-loaded stops becomes smaller.
  • the weight of the transport container makes the springs press at least partly together when the transport container leans against the sheets while supported by the spring-loaded stops.
  • the movable supports are pushed under the sheets.
  • the sheets descend to rest on the movable supports both due to their own weight and due to the fact that the spring-loaded stops press the sheets against the movable supports.
  • the solution of the invention makes it possible to use a light-structured transport container, because the transport container is fastened to the fastening elements in the ship and the strength of the sheets is utilized during lifting. Therefore, the ship itself helps support the sheets during transport and a heavy-duty transport container is thus not needed. Because the transport container can be made light, it is also easier to handle, for instance to lift to and from the cargo space of a ship. Because the transport container can be made simple in structure, it is also inexpensive to manufacture.
  • the invention relates to a transport container 3 for sheets that is intended for use as a transport container 3 for sheets in transporting the sheets 1 by ship, for instance.
  • the transport container 3 of the invention can also be used for transports by river barges, for instance.
  • Figure 1 shows an arrangement for transporting sheets 1 on a ship 2.
  • the sheets 1 are in the transport container 3 for sheets and the transport container 3 for sheets is in the cargo space 4 of the ship.
  • the transport container 3 for sheets comprises first fastening elements 5 for fastening the transport container 3 for sheets to second fastening elements 6 in the cargo space 4 of a ship, or in some other transport means, such as a motor vehicle (not shown in the figures).
  • the transport container 3 for sheets is fastened by means of the first fastening elements 5 and the second fastening elements 6.
  • the first fastening elements 5 are preferably fastening elements that are used in containers (not shown in figures) for fastening them to ships 2, i.e. container shoes.
  • the second fastening elements 6 are preferably fastening elements that are used in cargo spaces 4 of ships for fastening containers, in other words, they are arranged to operate together with container shoes.
  • the second fastening elements 6 can be fastening elements that are intended not only for fastening transport containers 3 for sheets but also for fastening ordinary containers. If the sheets 1 transported on the ship 2, and thus also the transport containers 3 for the sheets, are wider than standard containers (width 2.4 m), the second fastening elements 6 in the cargo space 4 of the ship can be ones intended especially for the transport container 3 for sheets. It is also possible that the transport containers 3 for sheets are fastened in the cargo space 4 of the ship both with the second fastening elements 6 that are intended for fastening containers and with the second fastening elements 6 that are intended especially for fastening transport containers 3 for sheets.
  • the first fastening elements 5 and/or the second fastening elements 6 preferably comprise a twist-lock-type fastening element (not shown in the figures).
  • the second fastening elements 6 in the cargo space 4 of the ship are at the bottom 7 of the cargo space. It is also possible that the second fastening elements 6 are on a middle deck (not shown in the figures) above the bottom 7 of the cargo space.
  • Figure 1 shows an arrangement, in which several transport containers 3 for sheets are placed on top of each other in the cargo space 4 of the ship.
  • the transport container 3 for sheets comprises elements for placing a second transport container 3 for sheets on top of a first one. These elements are preferably arranged to operate together with the first fastening elements 5 of the transport container 3 being placed on top.
  • said elements comprise studs 8 that are arranged to support the second transport container 3 for sheets that is placed on top of the first transport container 3.
  • the tops (not marked with a reference numeral) of the studs 8 are arranged to operate together with the first fastening elements 5 of the transport container 3 being placed on top.
  • the tops of the studs 8 can for instance have the same kinds of second fastening elements 6 as are located at the bottom 7 of the cargo space.
  • the tops of the studs 8 can have fastening elements, such as container shoes, that are used for instance at the corresponding points of containers, i.e. top corners of the containers, for fastening a second container to the container below.
  • the transport container 3 for sheets comprises an upper structure 14 that is intended to be placed on top of the sheets 1.
  • the upper structure 14 preferably comprises a lattice structure (no marked with a reference numeral) to stiffen the upper structure 14.
  • the transport container 3 for sheets also comprises movable supports 15 that can be moved under the sheets 1, when the upper structure 14 is on top of the sheets 1, in such a manner that the upper surface 14 and the movable support 15 at least partly surround the sheets 1 and the sheets 1 can be moved by moving the transport container 3 for sheets.
