Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] This invention relates to a reinforced container.

Containers such as tanks often have a lid or beam attached to the upper end of the side wall.

Such lids and beams are subject to loads when people stand on them or when snow accumulates on them, so it is necessary to support important points with pillars.

Since this pillar supports the space between the bottom and the lid or the bottom and the beam, as the height of the side wall increases, the length of the pillar also increases accordingly.

However, the work of transporting the long pillars and installing them in the tank is extremely complicated.

Therefore, this inventor did not make the pillars as one piece from the beginning.
My idea was to make connectable rods of a certain length, transport these rods to the location where the pillars would be installed, add more rods there so that they would extend in the axial direction, and assemble them into a long pillar. .

However, when a column is assembled by adding rods together, when the column receives force from the side, it tends to bend into a dogleg shape at the joint.

Therefore, it became necessary to prevent this bending.

The inventor noticed that in large containers, in order to prevent the side walls from bending, a stay is often inserted between the opposing side walls, and he thought of using this stay to prevent the above bending. Ta.

He also thought that bending could be prevented by passing a stay through the joint near the joint of the pillar.

In addition, in order to pass the stay through the pillar, there is a conventional method of drilling a hole in the pillar and inserting the stay into the hole (Utility Model Application No. 120312/1983). It is not easy to insert the stay because the stay must be inserted from the end.

The inventor thought that if a notch is provided at the joint of the pillar and the stay is inserted through the notch, the stay can be inserted halfway into the notch, making it easier to insert the stay.

This idea was developed based on this idea.

That is, this invention is a reinforced container in which a pillar is erected from the bottom and a stay is inserted between the side walls or between the side wall and the bottom, and the pillar is constructed by adding at least two rods, and the rods are connected. In the section, a receiver is provided at the end of one rod,
A notch is provided at the end of the other rod, the notch is shaped to extend inward from the end of the rod, the end of the rod with the notch is inserted into the receiving part, and the end of the notch is exposed from the edge of the receiving part, This is a reinforced container with a stay inserted into the exposed notch.

The reinforcing container according to this invention will be explained as follows based on the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a partially cutaway sectional view showing an example of a reinforced container according to this invention.

FIGS. 2 and 3 are partially cutaway perspective views showing examples of columns used in this invention.

FIGS. 4 and 5 are partially cutaway sectional views showing another example of the pillar used in this invention.

FIG. 6 is a partially cutaway sectional view showing another example of the reinforcing container according to the invention.

In FIG. 1, a column 1 is erected from the bottom of a container having a bottom a and a side wall.

Between the side walls (only one side wall is shown),
Stay 2 is being squeezed.

The pillar 1 is constructed by adding at least two rods 11 together.

At the connecting portion, as shown in FIG. 2, a receiving portion 12 is provided at the end of one rod 11A, and a notch 13 is provided at the end of the other rod 11B.

The notch 13 is shaped to extend inward from the end of the rod 11B.

The end of the rod 11B provided with this notch 13 is inserted into the receiving portion 12 of the rod 11A.

The end of the notch 13 is exposed from the edge of the receiver part 12.

The stay 2 is inserted into the exposed notch 13.

What is constructed in this way is the reinforcing container according to this invention.

In the above container, the bottom a and the side wall may be assembled from unit plates or may be a single plate.

Additionally, the bottom may be concrete.

In the example shown in FIG. 1, both the bottom a and the side wall are assembled from unit plates 3A.

The unit plate 3A has a right-angled rectangular substrate 31 and a joining edge 32 that stands upright toward the same side around the four peripheries of the substrate 31.

The substrate 31 may be provided with unevenness, or may include a heat insulating material and have a sandwich structure.

This unit plate is suitably made of metal such as iron or reinforced synthetic resin.

The joining edges of adjacent unit plates 3A are brought into contact with each other and fixed with a gasket (not shown) with a gasket sandwiched therebetween.

In this way, the unit plates 3A are connected in the same plane, and the bottom a and the side walls are assembled.

The bottom a and the side wall are connected via an angle 4.

This container can be provided with a lid.

In the example shown in FIG. 1, a lid C assembled from unit plates 3B is attached.

The unit plate 3B is the unit plate 3A in which the substrate 31 is bulged out to the side opposite to the protruding side of the joint edge 32.

The lid C and the side wall are connected using an angle 4.

The rod 11 constituting the pillar 1 is preferably made of a hard material such as metal or synthetic resin.

The rod 11 may be hollow or solid.

Further, the cross section may be circular or polygonal such as a quadrangle, a hexagon, or a hexagon.

The receiving portion 12 of the rod 11A is preferably cylindrical,
The inner surface may be provided with an inward taper or a non-slip protrusion.

Further, the insertion portion of the rod 11B may also be provided with a tapered taper or a protrusion.

An adhesive may be applied to the contact surface during insertion.

The notch 13 of the rod 11B is shaped so that it can be seen across the rod.

It is desirable that the upper end of the pillar 1 is fixed to the lid C as shown in FIG.

When fixing, a block 5A having a groove at the tip is attached to the upper end of the column 1, and a unit plate 3 constituting the lid is inserted into the groove.
It is convenient to insert the joining edge 32 of B.

The lower end of the pillar 1 may simply contact the bottom a, or may be fixed.

Note that it is desirable to use rods 11 that have the same connecting portion shape and constant length.

In addition to the unit length, the constant length includes one-half of the unit length and a length that is an integral multiple.

Appropriate unit length is about 1 m.

As the stay 2, an iron rod, a pipe, a steel band, or the like is used.

To fix the end of the stay 2 to the side wall, as shown in FIG. comes into contact with
It is appropriate to provide a screw at the penetrating end of the stay and fix it using nuts 1-6.

Note that it is desirable that two stays 2 be provided in directions perpendicular to each other and that these stays 2 intersect within the pillar 1, as shown in FIG.

In the above container, as the rods constituting the pillar 1, rods 11C to 11E can be used as shown in FIGS. 3 to 5 instead of the rod 11A shown in FIG.

The rod 11C shown in FIG. 3 is the rod 11A shown in FIG. 2, with a recess 14 provided at the edge of the receiver portion 12, and the end of the notch 13 exposed from the edge of the recess 14.

A rod 11D shown in FIG. 4 is the same as the rod 11A shown in FIG.

The rod 11E shown in FIG. 5 is different from the rod 11A in FIG.
The 1A main body is inserted and fixed, for example, with adhesive.

This invention further includes the following embodiments.

In the reinforcing container of this invention shown in FIG. 6, the rods 11 constituting the pillars 1 are used upside down compared to the case shown in FIG.

At the upper end of the column 1, a unit plate 3 constituting the lid C is placed in the notch 13.
The joining edge 32 of B is inserted.

A block 5B is inserted into the receiving part 12 at the lower end of the column 1, and its lower end is brought into contact with the bottom a.

In this container, the bottom a and the side wall are assembled from unit plates 3C.

In the unit plate 3C, in the unit plate 3A, the substrate 31 is bulged out to the side opposite to the protruding side of the joint edge 32 to form a slope 33 on the peripheral edge, and the slope 33 has an inclination angle of 135° with respect to the substrate 31. This is what I did.

At the bottom a, a groove 7 having a V-shaped cross section is formed by facing the slopes 33 of adjacent unit plates 3C.

On the other hand, the block 5B attached to the lower end of the column 1 has its tip narrower than the width of the groove 7, and the narrowed portion is in contact with the groove surface.

Furthermore, another embodiment of this invention includes one in which the stay 2 is diagonally crossed between the bottom a and the side wall.

In the reinforcing container according to this invention, the pillar that stands inside the container is constructed by adding at least two rods, so that the pillar can be easily transported and installed.

Further, in the connection part of the pillar, a receiving part is provided on the end face of one of the rods, and the end of the other rod is inserted into the receiving part, so that the connection is easy.

Furthermore, the insertion part of the other rod is provided with a notch that extends inward from the end, and the stay is inserted through the notch, so it is possible to insert the stay midway into the squirrel without passing the stay through the end. It is easy to insert.

In addition, the notched end of the rod was inserted into the receiving part, the notched end was exposed from the edge of the receiving part, and the stay was passed through the exposed part.
Even though the stay is inserted through a notch, it does not come out easily.

Since the stay is inserted into the vicinity of the connection part of the column, the column is prevented from being bent into a dogleg shape with the connection part as a border.

However, since the stay is supported by a pillar in the middle, it does not bend.

Furthermore, since the stays support the space between the opposing side walls or between the bottom and the side wall, the side wall is prevented from deflecting.

This invention has a number of advantages as mentioned above.
