Definitions

  • the present invention concerns a coupling device for containers for coupling upper and lower containers to each other when stacking containers, more specifically an automatic coupling device for containers capable of automatically disconnecting the containers by lifting them, at the time of unloading.
  • a coupling device for containers comprises a plate-like coupling seat disposed between corner fittings of the containers stacked one upon another, upper and lower pedestals, provided in protrusion from the coupling seat, for positioning and fitting the coupling device for containers in a slot of the upper and lower corner fittings respectively, and upper and lower cones, provided at the tip of the pedestals, to couple the containers as the cones are engaged in the slot of the corner fittings.
  • an automatic coupling device for containers realized in such a way that the upper cone is installed in advance on the corner fitting at the bottom of the container, to enable to automatically engage the lower cone in the slot in the corner fitting of the lower container, for coupling the containers, at the time of stacking of that container on the lower container, by letting down the container by fitting it to the lower container, and, conversely, enable to automatically disengage the containers by lifting them, at the time of unloading of the containers.
  • said lower cone 10 comprises, as shown in Fig. 10, for example, a neck 12 hanging from the pedestal 11 by being displaced to one side in the direction of breadth of the slot C1, and a fixed projection 13 further protruding in the direction of displacement from the tip of the neck 12.
  • a lower inclined face 14 getting in slide contact with the edge of the slot C1 at the time of loading, for guiding the pedestal 11 to the fitting position is formed at the bottom of the pedestal 11 on the side opposite to said direction of displacement, and an upper inclined face 15, getting in slide contact with the edge of the slot C1 by a drawing action made at the time of unloading, for guiding the coupling device for containers in the direction opposite to said direction of displacement to move the fixed projection 13 to a position not to be engaged in the slot C1.
  • reference numeral 16 indicates a coupling seat, while 17 represents the upper cone.
  • the lower inclined face 14 gets in slide contact with the edge of the slot C1, and guides the pedestal 11 up to the fitting position, to engage the fixed projection 13 in the slot C1, at the time of loading.
  • the upper inclined face 15 of the fixed projection 13 gets in slide contact with the edge of the slot C1, by that drawing action, to guide the coupling device for containers in the direction opposite to the direction of displacement, and this makes it possible for the fixed projection 13 to move to a position not to be engaged in the slot C1.
  • the adjacent container is a tank container
  • another problem is that, if one of the left and right coupling devices for containers got in the corner fitting C first, the other coupling device for containers cannot get in and, if the container is lifted again for restarting the operation, the coupling devices for container which got in first becomes undetachable because of prying which acts on it.
  • the first objective of the present invention is to provide, in view of the above-described problems of the conventional coupling device for containers, an automatic twist type coupling device for containers, not easily detached during a transportation and, in addition, capable of being engaged and disengaged easily by reducing the amount of rolling of the containers.
  • the second objective of the present invention is to provide a coupling device for containers which can be installed correctly in the slot in the corner fitting of a suspended container, without any error of orientation.
  • the third objective of the present invention is to provide a coupling device for containers which enables to perform connection & disconnection of the upper cone easily with a single hand.

  • the coupling device for containers is a coupling device for containers comprising:
  • the coupling device for containers of the present invention for achieving the above-described first objective, it is possible to fasten the lower cone in the slot from right above without hardly any rolling of the containers, at the time of loading because, as the lower cone is inserted in the slot in the corner fitting, the mobile projection gets in slide contact with the edge of the slot and retreats by being pushed upward.
  • the lower pedestal and the mobile projection are engaged with the edge of the slot, against the force acting upward diagonally for floating and, furthermore, in case the swing of the ship acted on the side opposite to the displacement side, the fixed projection is engaged with the edge on the opposite side of the slot, against the force acting upward diagonally in opposite direction for floating, thus preventing the coupling devices for containers from being disengaged.
  • a coupling device for containers of the present invention for achieving the above-described second objective, which is a coupling device for containers comprising:
