  • Such containers particularly suitable for multimodal transport are defined in particular by ISO standards IS0668 and ISO1161.
  • the invention is of course not limited to the containers defined by this standard.
  • the containers defined by the standard IS0668 are equipped with ISO1161-compliant corners, that is to say boxes containing oblong openings intended to introduce a handling or stowage device.
  • this handling device may be a hook or a lifting shackle.
  • This device can also be a securing device, allowing, for example to fix the container and equipped to the deck of a ship or the hold of an aircraft.
  • Such a handling device is known from the document JP 7 172758 A .
  • an articulated device it is particularly advantageous to be able to use an articulated device in such a way that it accepts all ISO1161 compatible wedge-compatible traction orientations while remaining locked regardless of the orientation, and which can remain in place during transport of the container equipped with it. In particular, this limits the number and duration of operations when unloading the container.
  • the European road gauge is 2550 mm and the width of an ISO container is 2438 mm. Thus, it remains on both sides of the container, in the sense of its width, that 56 mm.
  • the handling devices known in the state of the art have a bulk such that a container equipped with it exceeds the European road gauge, that is to say that these devices of the prior art make a transverse projection more than 56 mm from the corner on which they are engaged. In addition, the reduction of this transverse projection is particularly important for air transport, given the narrowness of the aircraft bunkers.
  • the invention aims to provide a handling device forming a transverse projection, relative to the load with which it is engaged, preferably less than 56mm. More particularly, the object of the invention is to propose a securing and handling device for a container defined by the standards IS0668 and ISO1161, sufficiently strong to withstand the forces during transport or lifting, the locking of which on the container does not depend on the direction of these efforts, and planned to remain fixed to the container during transport, including road transport. Another object of the invention is also to provide a handling device adapted to be used both for lifting and securing the container.
  • such a handling device for a container provided with a handling port is characterized in that it comprises a handling ring, a body and a lardon, the body and the lardon being movable one by relative to the other in rotation about a main axis between a first position in which the body and the lardon together have a transverse profile adapted to pass through the handling port, and a second position, in which the body and the bacon have, together, a transverse profile unfit to pass through the handling port, the body further comprising a footprint in which the lardon can be housed when in the second position.
  • Such a device comprises a shaft extending along the main axis, the gibber being disposed at a first end of the shaft, said shaft being preferably formed in one piece with said gib, this shaft being axially extended to a second end opposite the first by a threaded zone, the device further comprising a movable nut, between a target position and an unscrewed position, on the threaded zone.
  • the device comprises means for locking the nut in its screwed position.
  • the second end of the shaft carries an abutment piece, the threaded zone forming with the shaft a shoulder, so that the axial displacement of the nut is limited between the abutment piece, in its unscrewed position, and the shoulder, in its screwed position.
  • Such a device may comprise return means arranged so that they tend to make penetrate the bacon in the impression when the bacon is in the second position.
  • An abutment preferably forming a single piece with the body, can advantageously be arranged so that in the second position, the stop and the lardon can be arranged each on one side of the handling port.
  • the ring may comprise a body rotatably mounted around the shaft, the ring further comprising a loop, preferably hinged to the body about an axis transverse to the main axis.
  • the return means can also be mounted around the shaft, between the body and the nut.
  • the body of the ring can be mounted on the shaft between the nut and the return means.

  • the ring comprises a body 31 and a handle 32.
  • the handle is articulated on the body about an axis X6, transverse and non-secant with the main axis X1.
  • the handle 32 extends substantially in a plane including the transverse axis X6.
  • the body 31 is provided to be mounted on the shaft 12.
  • the handle is provided to receive a lifting hook or lashing device for the container.
  • the body 31 of the ring 6 is of symmetrical shape relative to a plane transverse to the main axis X1. It is pierced with an orifice 33 for the effortless passage of the shaft 12.
  • the body 31 comprises at the front and at the rear of the orifice 33, a cylindrical recess 34 whose diameter D34 is greater than the diameter D33 of the orifice 33. That of the recesses 34 which is at the front of the body is intended to receive and serve as a support for the annular zone 23 of the abutment 3.
  • the nut 7 has a substantially square cross-section, with beveled corners.
  • the square shape allows a good grip, so that the nut can be handled without the use of a tool.
  • the nut comprises a cylindrical extension 36 whose diameter is in the square of the nut.
  • the cylindrical extension is intended to be housed and abut in that of the recesses 34, not visible in the figures, which is at the rear of the body 31 of the ring 6.
  • the nut further comprises a threaded hole 38 therethrough axially and provided to engage the threaded zone 13 of the stud 2.
  • the nut further comprises, in its rear portion 37 of square shape, on either side of the tapped hole 38, a transverse passage 39.
  • the passage 39 is intended to come in the extension of the passage 15 of the peak 2 and to introduce pin 8.
  • the nut 7 also comprises a cylindrical housing 41, open towards the rear, and in front of which opens the tapped hole 38.

  • the compactness of the device particularly benefits. Such a device therefore extends less outside the corner of the container.
  • the handling device 1 is a single piece that can be used without other accessories and without tools.
  • the abutment 3, the spring 4 and the spacer 5 together form biasing means 3-5 which tend to bring the bolt towards the rear of the device.
  • the nut comprises without one of its angles a passage 52 to arrange the pin 8, when it does not serve to lock the nut 7 on the shaft 12.
  • FIGS. 8 to 11 These figures partially represent an ISO1161 wedge of a container 60.
  • the container handling port 20, of oblong shape, is arranged vertically, that is to say that its largest dimension is vertical.
  • the handling device 1 is shown vis-à-vis the orifice 20, ready to be introduced therein.

  • the device is then in the configuration of the figure 11 .
  • the clearance between the body 31 of the ring 6 has been reduced, so that only a clearance J2 remains, which is insufficient for the bolt 11 to escape from the groove 24 and sufficient to allow rotation of the ring. around the main axis X1.
  • the ring can freely rotate around the shaft 12, so that it can align naturally with slings provided to lift the container 60 or be oriented the handle down to be used at the stowage of the container on the deck of a ship, on the platform of a truck or in the hold of an aircraft.
  • the pin 8 is inserted into the passages 15, 39 provided for this purpose in the nut. 7 and the bolt 2, thus preventing the rotation of the nut relative to the bolt.
  • Such a device is particularly compact, so that it can be left in place on a container, without it exceeding the road gauge. It can thus be used both for loading and unloading the container on the tray of a truck, and, during transport, used to tie the container on the tray. Thus, the risks of accidents related to the setting up such a device are reduced, along with the time lost to such an operation.
  • a device according to the invention can be adapted to another type of container having in particular a handling port which is not circular, so that a rotation of a bacon of suitable shape prevents the withdrawal; whatever the shape of the orifice.
