  • FIG IO WALTEZ SPRICK I ATTORNEYS BAGGAGE AND CARGO CONTAINER DOOR MECHANISM The present invention relates to cargo containers and more particularly to an improved door construction for such containers.
  • Cargo containers are now widely used to facilitate the handling of baggage and other cargo. For example, many of the larger modern aircraft are designed to receive cargo containers. Difficulties have been encountered, however, with the door mechanism of the containers presently in use. Since there may only be a small area available in which the container is to be loaded or unloaded the door mechanism must be designed so that it can be opened and closed without being moved through a large area. Also, where conveyor systems are used to handle the containers, the rails of the conveyor may present obstacles requiring the lower section of the door to be lifted upwardly before it can be swung to an open position.
  • the arrangements which had been proposed heretofore to meet these requirements include doors which are formed of a number of sections each of which is guided by rollers running in tracks extending on the side of the opening and along the inner face of the top of the container. Such an arrangement, however, reduces the amount of available storage space within the container and, unless the rollers and tracks are closely fitted precision members, does not provide for tight sealing of the container.
  • Another arrangement which has been used utilizes an elongated guide member which runs in a track mounted on the door. This arrangement requires a heavy door construction to provide sufficient rigidity for the track. Also, with such a construction the door must be opened carefully or jamming will occur as one side of the door attempts to lead the other.
  • a further object of the present invention is the provision of a door operating mechanism in which the door may be of lightweight construction while providing for the secure sealing ofthe container.
  • Another object of the present invention is the provision of a door operating mechanism for a cargo container in which the possibility of jamming the door is substantially reduced.
  • a door operating mechanism for a cargo container which mechanism does not occupy any otherwise usable space within the container
  • an operating mechanism which permits the door to be opened and closed in a relatively small area and which permits the opening and closing of the door even if there are obstructions present near the base of the container
  • the provision of a container door assembly which will remain in its closed position even if the guide roller becomes damaged or broken
  • a door mechanism for a cargo container which consists, essentially, of a door having upper and lower sections connected by a horizontal hinge, rollers mounted to brackets at the upper corners of the upper door section, guidetracks extending lengthwise along the upper ends of the end panels of the containers for receiving the rollers, anchoring pins at the lower end of the door for engaging recesses in the container base when the door is closed, and a latching mechanism for holding the door securely in a closed position.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a cargo container hav ing the door mechanism of the present invention
  • FIG. 2 is a side elevational view of the cargo container of FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 3 is an end elevational view of the cargo container
  • FIG. 4 is a fragmentary vertical sectional view taken along the line 4-4 of FIG. 2',
  • FIGS. 5, 6, and 7 are fragmentary vertical sectional views taken along the lines 55, 66, and 77, respectively, of FIG. 3;

  • FIG. 12 is a fragmentary elevational view showing the relationship of the guide roller and support bracket to the door and the track;
  • FIG. 13 is a fragmentary sectional view taken along the line 1313 of FIG. 12;
  • FIG. 14 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing the door in a partially opened position
  • FIG. 15 is a view similar to that of FIG. but showing the door in its fully opened position.
  • FIG. 16 is a fragmentary sectional view taken along the line 16-16 of FIG. 3.
  • FIGS. 1-3 A cargo container having the door mechanisms of the present invention is illustrated-in FIGS. 1-3 and designated generally by the reference numeral 10.
  • This container has a base 12, end panels 14 which may be corrugated metal sheeting, a top panel 16, and side panels 18.
  • the side panels 18 are doors which may be opened to provide access to the container.
  • each of the doors 18 consists of a lower door section 20 and an upper section 22 which are joined together by a horizontal hinge 24.
  • Brackets 26 are affixed to the upper corners of the upper door panels 22 and these brackets journal rollers which run in tracks 28 extending across the top of the side panels 14.
  • the lower edge of the door panel is provided with a number of pins 30which engage mating openings 32 in the base 12 when the door is in a closed position.
  • a latch mechanism 34 is provided for fastenl060ll 0598 ing the door in its closed position.
  • the cargo container may be provided with shelves 36, if desired, and these shelves may be removably secured within the. container. Handles 38 may be provided on the ends of the container to facilitatemovement and additional handles 40 provided on the door panels 18.
  • the base and top panels 12 and 16, respectively, may be of any suitable construction.
  • the side panels 14 may be of any suitable construction and are not necessarily formed of corrugated sheets, as illustrated.
  • the side panels 14 are removably connected to the base 12 and top panel 16 so that the container may be disassembled for shipment or storage.
  • FIG. 4 One possible arrangement for securing the side panels 14 tothe base 12 is shown in FIG. 4 where the lower end of panel 14 is provided with a rail 94 which is riveted to the panel and which includes an inwardly projecting web 96 which may be secured to the base by screws 98.
  • the upper door panel 22 consists of acorrugated metal sheet 38 positioned with the corrugation extending vertically.
  • a top rail 40 having downwardly projecting flanges 42 and 44 is secured to the upper edge of the corrugated sheet 38 by means of rivets 46 and 48.
  • the rail 40 which is preferably an aluminum extrusion, has aweb portion projecting at right angles to the plane of the corrugated sheet 38 and terminating in a lip 52 extending generally parallel to the sheet 38.
  • the rail 54 which forms the front edge of the top panel 16 has a continuous groove 60 which mates with the lip 52 of the door top rail 40.
  • This arrangement provides a seal between the door and top member when the door is closed, and, as will be discussed below, holds the door in a closed position if the roller assemblies 26 become broken or damaged.
  • a sealing gasket (not shown) may also be provided to form a tight seal between the rails 40 and 54.
  • the rail 54 has projecting flanges 58 and 60 for engaging the top panel 16 and may be secured to this panel by any suitable means, such as riveting or welding.
  • a beam 60 extends along the lower edge of the corrugated sheet 38, the beam having upwardly projecting flanges 64 and 66 for engaging opposite faces of the corrugated sheet 38 and rivets 66 are employed to secure the beam to the sheet 38.
  • a suitable handle 68 may be attached to the beam, preferably midway between the edges of the'door panel 18.
  • the beam 60 is preferably a hollow aluminum extrusion forming a box beam which extends the width of the door assembly. This construction permits the use of relatively light gauge corrugated sheeting 38 while still maintaining sufficient strength and rigidity in the door assembly. Further, the use of a horizontally extending beam in conjunction with the vertically extending corrugations of the sheets provides an exceptionally rigid yet lightweight door assembly. It should be noted, however, that while this is the preferred construction, other materials may be used in place of the corrugated sheeting 38 or the sheeting may be arranged with the corrugations extending horizontally.
  • the lower door section 20 also consists of a corrugated sheet 70 which again, preferably, has its corrugations extending vertically.
  • An upper rail 72 having parallel flanges 74 is riveted to the upper edge of the corrugated sheet 76 and extendsthe width of the door assembly.
  • This rail 72 again preferably an aluminum extrusion, has a web portion 78 extending upwardly from the rail 72 and at an angle to the plane of the corrugated sheet 70. Preferably, this angle is approximately 45.
  • One leaf of the hinge 24 is riveted or otherwise connected to the bottom surface of the beam 60 while the other leaf of the hinge 24 is riveted or otherwise connected to the angled web 78 of the rail 72..
  • hinge 24 may be a stainless steel piano hinge. However,
  • neoprene gasket is provided along the lower surface of the bottom rail 80 performing a weathertight seal with the container base 12 when the door is closed.
  • the pins 30 are connected to the lower rail 80 by suitable fasteners such as bolts 88.
  • the lateral edges of the upper door panel 22 maybe provided with side rails 90.
  • Side rails 92 may also be provided on the lateral edges 'of the lower door panel 20.
  • each of these rails and 92 carries a sealing gasket for engaging the face of the rail which forms the lateral edge of the container side panel 14.
  • the sealing strip may be affixed to the side panel rail 100 and engage the inner face of the door edge rails 90 and 92.
  • roller guide assemblies 26 Affixed to each of the upper corners of the door panel assembly 18 are roller guide assemblies 26.
  • Each assembly has an angle bracket 101 which has a first leg 102 extending parallel to the plane of the corrugated sheets forming the door and which is securely riveted or bolted to the door and a second leg 104 extending at right angles to the plane of the door.
  • a stud or other suitable pin 106 is provided at the outer end of the bracket leg 104 and a guide roller 108 is joumaled on the stud or pin.
  • the roller 108 is preferably a nylon roller and, as can be seen from FIG.
  • the edge 110 of the roller furthest from the bracket is rounded on a fairly large radius while the edge 112 of the roller closer to the bracket has a smaller radius.
  • a suitable bushing 116 may be provided on the stud 106 to assure free rotation of the roller 108.
  • the track 28 in which the roller 108 runs forms the top rail of the end panel 14 of the container assembly.
  • the track-28 has a channellike passage 116 extending its length and the roller 108 runs in this passage, generally bearing on the wall 118.
  • a downwardly projecting lip 120 serves to retain the roller within the channel 116.
  • the roller 108 has a loose fitting relationship with the inset l 0599 channel 116, the roller being of sufficient heighth to be retained in place by the downwardly projecting lip 120 but normally being free to move a limited extent both vertically and laterally within the confines of the channel 116. This arrangement eliminates one of the major difficulties encountered with prior container door mechanisms where the door guide assemblies have relatively close tolerances.
  • a stop member 124 which is retained by a bolt 126.
  • the bolt 126 also retains a spring 128 which has downwardly projecting end portions 130 protruding into the channel 116 through suitable notches 132 in the rail 128.
  • the downwardly projecting end portion 130 of the spring 128 serve to engage the rollers 108 to retain the doors in their fully opened position.
  • the rollers for the doors on opposite sides of the container travel to substantially the midpoint of the container so that a common stop member 124 may be employed.
  • a common stop member 124 may be employed.
  • the latch mechanism 34 employed to hold the doors in a closed position may be any suitable latch. Also, the location of the latch mechanisms are not critical so long as the mechanisms are capable of holding the door securely in its closed position.
  • One mechanism which may be used is illustrated in FIG. 9.
  • This latch mechanism has a housing 124 which is mounted at the end 126 of the beam 60, the outer wall of the beam being cut away at the end thereof.
  • a latching stud 128 which has a frusto-conical head portion 130 and an annular groove 132 immediately below the head portion 130 is secured to the end panel rail 100 in any suitable manner.
  • Slidably received within the housing 124 is a latch plate 134 which has a notch 136 at one end.
  • FIGS. 14 and 15 The manner in which the door assembly 18 is opened is illustrated in FIGS. 14 and 15.
  • the door is opened by pulling the handle 68 outwardly. This will result in a pivoting of the upper door section 22 about the studs .106 while the lower door assembly 20 pivots inwardly about the hinge 24 so that the lower end of the door moves substantially vertically.
  • This pivoting of the lower door section 20 relative to the upper door section 22 in the direction of the arrow A causes the lowermost end of the door to be raised before being swung outwardly and thus permits the door to clear obstructions such as the rail 138.
  • the amount of movement in the direction of the arrow A is limited by the bottom side of the beam and the web 78 of the lower door top rail 72.
  • this movement will be through an angle of less than 45.
  • the lower door section 20 can be pivoted upwardly about the hinge 24 in the direction of the arrow B to bring this door section into substantially parallel relationship with the upper door section 22.
  • the top rail 40 of the upper door section 22 is provided with suitable clips 134 which engage the pins 30 to hold the upper section in this folded position.
  • the door may now be continued to be moved upwardly, pivoting about the axis of the roller 108. As the door moves upwardly the roller 108 is free to move forwardly in the track 28, that is in the directions of the arrow C. This forward motion of the roller brings the upper portion of the door 22 to a position clear of the rail 54 at the edge of the top panel 16.
  • Wear plates 122 may be provided at the corners of the top panel 16 so that the door can be easily slid to its fully opened position.
  • these plates 122 are formed of nylon or other suitable material which will not mar the faces of the door sections 20 and 22. lt should be noted that as the door is opened only a small amount of distance above the container is necessary, the door being in a fully folded position before being slid along the top surface of the container. This arrangement, it will be noted, requires only a limited amount of vertical clearance above the container.
  • hold down straps 138 may be provided. As is shown in FIG. 16, the straps 138 may be connected to a suitable rod 140 riveted to the corrugated sheet forming the lower door panel. A book member 142 is provided at the free end of the strap 138 and a rod 144 may be provided on the corrugated sheet 70 for retaining this hook when the strap is not in use.
  • the hook 140 engages the lip portion of the track 128 when the door is open to provide a hold down, preventing the door from accidentally being blown or knocked from its fully opened position.
  • bracket 101 and rollers 108 are readily accessable and may be removed for repair or replacement, if necessary, without requiring the disassembly of the door itself.
  • a door panel on at least one side of the container
  • the door assembly according to claim 1 further including means to secure the lower end of the door panel to the base panel when the door panel is in its closed position.
  • the door assembly according to claim 1 further including latch means to secure the door in its closed position.
  • each guide rail is of channel-like configuration having its open side directed away from the container.
  • a container door assembly for a container having top, bottom, and end walls and at least one open side comprising:
  • a door panel which, when in closed position, covers the open side of the container
  • latching means for securing the door panel in closed position
  • a guide mechanism for the door panel to direct the panel between its closed position and an open position in which the panel is positioned above and substantially parallel to the top of the container
  • the mechanism comprising a pair of channel-like tracks, the tracks being located at opposite edges of the top wall of the the ganel.
  • the door panel is comprised of upper and lower panel sections and hinge means connecting the upper and lower sections.
  • the latching means comprises at least'one pin projecting downwardly from the lower edge of the lower panel section, the bottom wall'of the container having a recess for receiving the pin, a first latching member mounted on the door panel, and a second latching member mounted on the container, the first and second latching members co-operating to releasably secure the door panel.
  • the container door assembly according to claim 9 further including clip means carried by the upper panel section for engaging the pin to retain the lower panel section in folded relation to the upper panel section.
