Description

[0001] This application is a U.S. Pat. No. 6,0 entitled “Luggage Restraint System for Transport Containers” published July 18, 2000, all inventor and assignee in common with this application.
No. 89,802, US Pat. No. 6,227,779 entitled “Transport Container Luggage Method” published on May 8, 2001, and “Luggage Restraint” published on August 19, 2003. U.S. Pat. No. 6,607,337 entitled "System".

[0002] The present invention relates to an improved system and method for restraining loads during transport.
More particularly, the present invention fixes undesired movement of drums, boxes, rigid and flexible containers, whether or not they are placed on pallets inside truck bodies, rail cars, intermodal containers, etc. And new systems and methods for binding. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a system and method for improving the fixing strength and reducing the movement of luggage during transportation.

[0003] In the United States, land shipments are realized using a tractor / trailer truck combination, often referred to descriptively as an 18-wheel truck, or by a truck trailer mounted on a railroad car and / or a long car. . Truck trailers are usually 1371.6 in length
1463.04, or 1615.44 centimeters (45, 48, or 53 feet), often 208.175 liters (55 gallons) head occlusion drum, super sack (s
upper suck) flexible container bag or plastic reinforced bag, plastic packaging bundle, cased product, metal coil, special heavy paper roll (special heavy paper pap)
er rolls), loads in storage enclosures such as plastic or metal containers mounted on pallets. Each enclosure or bundle is quite heavy,
Although it may not move stationary, a package of transport luggage can create a significant moment force when a truck or rail vehicle is moved and placed.

[0004] Rail vehicles can be made in a yard by a coupling or transport process. When a railway vehicle is turned into a stationary row of vehicles, the vehicle joint is locked with an impact due to the impact. This impact can apply a considerable force to the load in the railway vehicle. In addition, during transport, railcars can be used for braking forces, leveling on the slope and run-off impact, rail vibration,
Drops and shakes in the truck are added. In a similar manner, the truck is subjected to stopping forces, starting forces, emergency braking, collisions and shaking from uneven roadbeds, centrifugal forces on curved surfaces, vibrations, etc. that tend to move the load.

[0005] In addition to the onshore delivery discussed above, many of the shipping shipments both in the United States and abroad are located in complex shipping containers. These containers are 609.1 in length
Standard dimensions of centimeters (20 feet) or 1219.2 centimeters (40 feet);
It is made of steel wavy side walls that are structurally self-supporting and rugged.
Some composite shipping containers can be stacked one above the other for shipping by sea, rail, or road. Inside the container, drums, boxes, etc. hold the actual product as described above.

[0006] The cargo in these combined shipping containers is accelerated, centrifugal loaded,
Various forces are applied throughout the transport process described above in relation to land transport, such as braking and vibration.
In addition, when a composite shipping container is loaded onto a marine vessel, wave forces including yaw, pitch, up and down, sway, and large waves are applied. Each of these forces has the potential to apply a substantial force to the contents in the composite shipping container. In this regard, if the container changes direction or speed, the cargo in the container tends to continue along the previously existing path until it contacts the inner wall of the container. Without some type of restraint and / or buffering system, the cargo increases a significant moment apart from the container. The magnitude of the momentum is a magnitude obtained by multiplying the load by the speed. If the cargo load is high, even small changes in speed or direction can generate significant forces.

[0007] When the cargo contacts the inner wall or door of the container, the force necessary to reduce the momentum to zero must be absorbed by the goods and / or the container. Such forces can lead to damage to the cargo, damage to the inner walls or doors of the container, damage to the cargo packaging, and can result in dangerous leakage if the cargo is a hazardous material. Therefore, it is not desirable that the cargo can gain any momentum during transportation independent of the container. This is accomplished by constraining the cargo within the container so that the cargo and the container are essentially combined and operably function as a single object during transport.

[0008] To secure luggage during transport and to minimize unwanted movement and damage, luggage restraining enclosures are often made with specially made wooden frames, floor blocks, rubber mats, steel straps, heavy air It is fixed to the floor and / or side of a trailer or a covered car by a bag or the like. Each of these previously known systems for securing has limitations associated with construction costs, lack of sufficient strength to secure dense loads, and the like. In addition, relying on trailer rear doors to at least partially secure non-hazardous items such as dangerous goods, tissue or soft paper products, furniture, appliances, and many other types of cargo. However, the rear door of the container cannot be used to secure the cargo even partially. In fact, to comply with the regulations of the Department of Transportation and the Explosives Bureau, dangerous goods are not even allowed to contact the rear door during a collision.

[0009] Further, in some examples, a trailer or a covered car can be used for shipping when only a portion of the load is carried. Furthermore, the partial luggage may be located in the central position of the trailer. In this example, it is impractical to build a wooden front and rear luggage bed sufficient to secure the load when the trailer front is not utilized.

[0010] In the past, a variety of loading materials have been utilized in trailers and / or composite shipping containers to eliminate undesired movement or shifting of packages in transit. Drums, boxes, or other containers have been constrained in several different ways. Initially, the cargo was secured by a load lock and cover method. The system includes a support strategically placed between the surface of the luggage and the rear door of the container. However, this is costly and time consuming and can be a means of securing normally inefficient loads. In this regard, the parcel process requires carpenters and is often outsourced to contractors. In addition, wooden barriers can take time to install. Furthermore, wooden supports are somewhat fragile and prone to failure as a result of sudden impacts.

[0011] In addition to the above, the conventional method of blocking a load on a load lay cannot perform some operations easily. For example, the most effective means of packing a composite shipping container is 80 208.1 in a container that is 609.1 cm (20 feet) long.
Double stacking 75 liter (55 gallon) drums. However, with 80 barrels loaded, there is only about 10.16 cm (4 inches) between the load surface and the rear door of the container. To put enough luggage to adequately support 80 drum packages, 1
0.16 cm (4 inches) is not enough space. Therefore, when using timber as a restraint system, the shipper can ship a container whose capacity is not satisfied. Thereby, transportation efficiency falls and transportation cost increases. In addition, some types of wood, such as coniferous wood, are not recognized at the mutual borders without special fumigation or heat treatment proof of coniferous wood loading. In this regard, the International Plant Protection Council (“IPPC”) has established “Guidelines for regulating timber packaging in international trade, with special terms, requirements and restrictions on timber loading recognized by many countries, including the United States. Issued.

[0012] The Department of Transportation has established criteria for determining whether a particular restraint system can adequately secure dangerous goods packages. In certain instances, conventional luggage locks and bedding are not authorized to transport dangerous goods luggage.

[0013] Other known restraining means such as ropes, metal or plastic straps or strands seen in the past tend to exhibit poor performance and often restrain the load even under moderate conditions Not functionally suitable for. Therefore, the cargo needs to be secured in cargo trailers, boxed vehicles, and complex shipping containers that are functionally effective, cost effective, work efficient, and that can comply with regulations of the Department of Transportation and the Explosives Bureau. There is. Furthermore,
There is a need for a fastening system that has high strength properties and limits the movement of cargo within a container.

[0014] At least one method and apparatus for constraining cargo movement that overcomes some of the aforementioned limitations is disclosed in commonly assigned US Pat. No. 4,264,251. The invention disclosed in that patent is used to securely and tightly constrain the sealing strips attached to opposing side walls of the container, the strips of support material, and the ends of the strips together. And a connection mechanism.

[0015] In the '251 patent, a flexible fixed strip is applied in a manner similar to applying wallpaper, and adhesive is applied on the surface in the trailer when adhesion is desired. Thereafter, a restraining strip is applied to the adhesive. In addition to this requirement for alternative adhesives, the systems found in the past have sometimes encountered problems related to joint fragility. At the junction where the strips come together, there was a possibility of sliding of the joined panels. Further, the composite shipping container has a corrugated wall surface as described above. These waves cause the constraining strip to be applied to another adhesive and do not make the uniform application substantially more difficult.

[0016] In addition to the restraint system disclosed in US Pat. No. 4,264,251, the above-mentioned US Pat. Nos. 6,089,802, 6th, all inventor and assignee in common with the present application.
, 227,779, and 6,607,337, other systems have been developed that provide high operating features and advantages. The disclosures of these four prior art patents of the common assignee of the present application are hereby incorporated by reference as if set forth in detail.

[0017] In addition to these prior art systems for securing cargo in freight trailers, rail vehicles, and composite shipping containers, dangerous goods can be removed without abandoning the benefits obtained by previously known commercial systems. Greater attention has been paid to securing heavier and denser packages, including. Furthermore, there is an advantage in improving the vertical fixing function by reducing elastic and / or plastic elongation so that dangerous goods can be transported with high efficiency and safety. In this regard, it would be desirable to utilize 80 208.175 liter (55 gallon) drum packages in a conventional combined shipping container. This arrangement requires that four steel drums be positioned immediately adjacent to the rear door of the composite shipping container. In the past, there have been problems with the unacceptable movement of luggage that could even touch the rear door of a container during a collision. As noted above, for dangerous goods luggage, the luggage in contact with the rear door is HazMa
t Not allowed by regulation.

[0018] In addition to the above, other restraint systems known in the past are numerous elements that are cumbersome to store, difficult to install, and often require some technical effort. Was necessary. All systems that use straps, claws, anchors, or bolts require substantial storage space, even when not in use. Furthermore, such a system increases the safety risks for workers restraining cargo. Still further, such systems have often been unable to meet the safety and travel restrictions imposed by regulatory agencies in various countries.

[0019] In addition to the above problems, systems and procedures used in the past that rely on accessories located in a cargo container often failed to secure partial loads.
That is, if the package does not extend to the front or rear of the container, such as a centrally located package, the required anchor may not be available in an area where it can be used effectively.

[0020] The previously proposed problems are not intended to be complete, but rather are among many that may tend to reduce the effectiveness of previously known cargo restraint systems. There may also be other notable issues, but the above should be sufficient to show that the cargo restraint system seen in the past recognizes a valuable improvement.

[0021] The overall object of the present invention is a cargo trailer, a covered car, which prevents or minimizes problems in advance and achieves at least some of the desired aspects of cargo fastening of the type previously described. It is to provide a new system and method for securing packages in complex shipping containers and the like.
