Description

  The present invention relates to a loading method and a sea transportation method, and more particularly to a method for loading iron scrap onto a container ship using a special container and a sea transportation method for transporting iron scrap to a destination port using the container ship.

  Conventionally, when iron scrap is transported on a container ship, the shipper of the iron scrap transports the iron scrap to the warehouse by truck, receives the cargo once, and after passing through procedures such as export customs clearance, packs the iron scrap in the container, The container was transported to a container ship. When there are three shipping sources A, B, and C, each shipping source (A, B, C) independently transports iron scrap by truck to the warehouse. Since the warehouse is often near the harbor (quay) where the container ship is anchored, the transportation distance from the shipping source to the warehouse is long, and the transportation cost is high. In addition, warehouse storage costs are also required.

  Furthermore, since the unit price of transportation is high when iron scrap is transported in a small lot, the shipping origin may refrain from shipping iron scrap until it reaches a certain large lot. During that time, if the price of iron scrap fluctuated and plummeted, it was often impossible to ship iron scrap at the market price intended by the shipper, and in many cases suffered damage due to the market price plummeting.

  Therefore, a method of transporting the container to the shipper of the iron scrap and loading the iron scrap into the container at the shipper can be considered, but there are the following problems. In other words, conventionally, the door on the side of the container is opened, and iron scrap is forcibly pushed into the back of the container, or the container is lifted by a crane or the like, and the container is leaned so that the side door faces upward. I opened the side door and pushed steel scrap from above. However, since iron scrap is sharply pointed, the container penetrates and opens a hole, and the container is damaged, so that it is not put into practical use in terms of durability.

  Moreover, since the scraps of iron scrap contain oil and the like, there is a problem that the container is contaminated with oil. Further, the bottom surface of the container is mostly a wood panel, and oil is immersed in the wood panel and the oil stain becomes severe. Usually, containers are often rented and unsuitable for transporting iron scrap.

  By the way, as a container which can load a luggage | load from the top, the container of patent document 1 and patent document 2 is proposed, for example.

  Patent Document 1 states that “a bottom plate (10) on which a load is placed, a column (20) erected on both left and right ends of the bottom plate (10), and the column (20) are detachable. And a top plate (30) supported by the door, and a gap is formed between the adjacent column parts (20), and the cargo (C) loaded inside can be visually recognized from the gap. In addition, a container that enables the loading operation of the luggage (C). "

  Patent Document 2 states that “in a waste container used for transporting and storing waste, almost the entire upper surface is open, and a container portion for storing waste therein and an upper surface opening of the storage portion are opened and closed. A waste container, comprising: a fastening part for fastening the container part and the lid part in order to seal the inside of the container part by the lid part.

  However, the container described in Patent Document 1 is intended for transporting long items such as wood and cannot transport iron scrap. That is, in the container described in Patent Document 1, a gap is formed between the pillar portions in order to visually recognize the load loaded inside from the outside, and sharply pointed iron scrap falls from the gap.

  Moreover, since the waste container described in Patent Document 2 is for transporting and storing waste containing hazardous substances, high airtightness is required. Therefore, the joint part of the bottom face and the side face of the container part and the joint part of the side faces are welded from the inside to form an airtight structure. In addition, it is necessary to provide a seal packing on the entire periphery of the lower surface of the lid portion in order to secure the airtightness and fastening means for sealing the inside of the container portion. Furthermore, the gap generated in the waste container is filled with the adsorbing sheet and the adsorbing material so that the vertical vibration, rollover and roll of the waste in the container do not occur. As described above, the waste container described in Patent Document 2 transports or stores waste containing hazardous substances that may contaminate the surrounding environment or adversely affect the human body. Not suitable for.

(1-5). Shipping Container 1 that has undergone procedures such as export customs clearance is loaded onto a container ship with a crane.

  Here, the container ship refers to a cargo ship that transports containers.

(1-6). Sea transport After loading container 1 on a container ship, the ship transports steel scrap to the destination port (destination) by sea.

  The method (1) is a preferable collection (collection) method when the shipping source A, the shipping source B, and the shipping source C are relatively close to each other.

  When there are a plurality of shipping sources (for example, three locations A, B, and C), in the shipping method according to this embodiment, the container is transported by truck to each shipping source (A, B, and C), and iron scrap is stored in the container. , It is not necessary for each shipping company (A, B, C) to transport iron scrap by truck. Moreover, since a warehouse for storing iron scrap is not required, the storage cost of the warehouse is not required. Furthermore, even when a small amount of iron scrap is shipped, the scrap can be shipped at the market price intended by the shipping source.

  Conventionally, when transporting steel scrap by sea, when bulk cargo is loaded on a conventional ship without using containers, it is limited to transportation in large lots from the viewpoint of transportation cost. It was limited to large cargo ships. In addition, the ports where large cargo ships can enter are limited to those in the suburbs of large cities, and cannot enter small local ports. As a result, land transportation by truck to a distant port is sometimes necessary, and the transportation distance is often long, resulting in high transportation costs. In the shipping and sea transportation method according to this embodiment, since the container ship can be used for transportation, sea transportation from a small local port is also possible, and it is possible to collect and ship iron scraps from all over the country.
