Description

Container coupling structure {CONTAINER COUPLING STRUCTURE}

The present invention relates to a structure for coupling a plurality of containers in a transverse direction. Specifically, when the sidewall of the container is removed or the container is manufactured without the sidewall, and then coupled in the transverse direction while facing each other It is about the coupling structure of the upper and lower parts applied when coupled to.

Container structures are used as temporary buildings such as offices or management booths at construction sites by forming doors and windows in container boxes used for cargo transportation. Since these container structures have advantages of low unit price and short construction period, they are not limited to one booth type, but several are connected and used as various types of structures. Recently, electricity, water, or gas is supplied so that office work or living is possible inside the container, so that it is being manufactured as a residential, office, or business space.

In particular, recently, the use of 20ft or 40ft marine containers is being used to produce variously as well as residential as well as commercial spaces.

However, due to the limited width of the container for road transport, the lateral width is constant because the container is standardized, thereby limiting the internal space of one container, removing the sidewalls of these containers and combining them in the lateral direction Therefore, it is necessary to increase the lateral width. Alternatively, even in the case of increasing the lateral width while manufacturing the container, it is also applicable to the case of combining these containers after manufacturing without a side wall.

In particular, when a large number of equipment such as a data center must be provided, two or more containers must be connected in the transverse direction. there was.

As a prior art, Patent Registration No. 10-1471039 shows a protrusion and a groove structure as a structure in which containers are coupled to each other in the transverse or up-down direction. There is a problem in that it is difficult to construct the container by precisely matching the projections.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a technique for a structure for transversely coupling a plurality of containers to face each other.

The present invention is to expand the inner space in the transverse direction by coupling two or a plurality of containers to each other in the transverse direction, and at this time, having an upper coupling structure and a lower coupling structure for firmly coupling the upper and lower ends that are coupled to each other while facing each other is characterized.
