Definitions

  • the disclosure relates to the field of logistics transportation, more specifically to a storage and transportation container and even more specifically to a tank container.
  • a storage and transportation container is mainly used for storging and transporting material, e.g. liquefied petroleum gas, ammonia, refrigerant and other non-refrigeration gas.
  • the storage and transportation container can be a tank container.
  • the tank container is usually designed to meet the standard of ISO tank container according to the international transport regulation (e.g. IMDG-International Maritime Dangerous Goods Code, ADR- European Agreement on the international carriage of dangerous goods, China standard JB/T 4781- "liquefied gas tank container”, etc.).
  • IMDG-International Maritime Dangerous Goods Code e.g. IMDG-International Maritime Dangerous Goods Code
  • ADR- European Agreement on the international carriage of dangerous goods
  • ISO tank container generally includes a frame and a tank located in the frame.
  • the tank includes a cylinder body and two sealing heads configured to seal two ends opening of the cylinder body respectively.
