Definitions
- Container transport unit formed therefrom and container system
- the present invention relates to a container for intermodal transport with an aircraft and a ship, a train and / or a motor vehicle with a parallelepiped housing, a transport unit for in ⁇ termodalen transport whose footprint of a genorm ⁇ th sea freight container corresponds, and a for the container system suitable in ⁇ termodal transport.
- sea freight containers ISO 668
- sea freight containers Due to the standardized dimensions, these containers are easy to load.
- the sea freight containers have standardized fittings ("corner castings"), with which a simple stacking and securing of the container is possible. So can ship transport with today's usual container ships several thousand Loading containers in a short time and transporting them over long distances.
- This system has be ⁇ lasts for sea and land transport, but it is desirable to include air transport to speed up the transport of goods.
- the sea freight containers for the Heiltrans ⁇ port are not practically suitable. This is first of all that the dimensions of the flight deck within the Airplanes ⁇ ge are mostly not suitable for receiving the Seefrachtcon ⁇ tainer. Even if a flight deck is in principle suitable for receiving a sea freight container, only a few aircraft, such as the freight version of the Boeing 747 with a fold-up bow, have loading openings in order to be able to invite a sea freight container. In addition, the requirements for the stability of sea freight containers are very high, so that they have a high weight.
- Repackaging the goods is also considered to be unfavorable, for example, when dealing with fragile, environmentally sensitive , dangerous or particularly valuable goods. Repackaging increases the risk of damage, hazardous substance release or loss. When repackaging food, further hygiene and cooling requirements must be observed, in particular, the cold chain must not be interrupted.
- intermodal container Due to their dimensions, they are only suitable for use in a few particularly large cargo aircraft, such as the aforementioned Boeing 747, so that use, for example, as loading charge in passenger aircraft is not possible. Despite the reduced weight compared to sea freight containers, their own weight is high, which increases the transport costs for air transport over air freight containers. Due to the low penetration of Intermodalcontainer most airports are not equipped for their use, so that the Intermodalcontainer are to be used only on fully ⁇ selected airports.
- the basic idea of the present invention is therefore to provide single ⁇ ne container having a suitable size for air transport, and may have been used with existing transport ⁇ aircraft or on the cargo deck of conventional passenger aircraft.
- the containers For transport by ship, rail or truck, the containers become transport units, as they are used by default for the Trans ⁇ port with these means of transport combined.
- the containers thus meet individually the require ⁇ implications for air transport, in particular in terms of size and weight, in order to utilize the cargo space by type of aircraft efficiently.
- the existing infrastructure for the handling of these containers can continue to be used.
- units are created that meet the requirements for transport by ship, rail and / or truck, in particular with regard to stackability and transport safety. tion.
- the delivery and the further transport of the containers as connected transport units with the usual, standardized means of transport is possible and the infrastructure provided for these transport units can be used without changes.
- containers from different aircraft can be combined for the joint onward transport to form a transport unit. It is also currency ⁇ rend further transport possible to separate a transport unit and combine the container with other containers to new transport units.
- the containers favor the distribution and onward transport of compared to the sea freight container low transported quantities of goods.
- the design of each individual container with fittings on each corner ensures that the containers are connected in any way with each other and therefore flexible to use.
- the transport units can be formed in a short time.
- the design of the containers with a footprint of substantially 3029 mm x 2438 mm or 2019 mm x 2438 mm is particularly advantageous. Then either two or three containers can be combined to form a transport unit with the standard length of 20 feet.
- the individual containers are suitable for air freight and the Bil ⁇ dung of transport units that are geometrically compatible with marine cargo containers, is possible in a short time, since only two or three separate containers to connect. Slightly reduced dimensions in the connecting direction of the containers can be provided to facilitate the handling of the container when positioning and connecting by a small clearance.
- the containers have a height of 2108 mm or 1626 mm. These heights are matched to the application in the United ⁇ main or lower deck of nowadays usual aircraft, so that the containers in Wesentli ⁇ chen can be transported in any aircraft.
- the predetermined in accordance with ISO 668 Minimum height of 2438 mm is not reached, but this is not a limitation for the Stackable ⁇ ness of the connected transport units. It is important in the first place that no maximum dimensions are exceeded, in particular to enable transport by road or rail. Accordingly, the transport units with reduced height are also suitable for the usual transport analogous to that of the standard sea freight containers.
- the housing may have a support frame and attached plate-shaped wall elements.
- the supporting frame ensures sufficient stability of the housing so that it is also possible to stack further container / transport units without damaging the container.
- the walls are usually loaded only to a small extent, so that the wall elements cause adequate protection and sealing of the container.
- additional sealing elements between the Tragrah- provide men and the wall elements, for example, to seal the container against the ingress of seawater.
- connecting means may be provided for fastening the housing to housings of adjacent containers.
- the connecting means can be designed in various ways and must ensure a secure connection of the individual containers with each other.
- the connection means may be formed as a screw-bridge members, as today in some ⁇ be used to stack assurance in shipping.
- the bridge elements engage in adjacent fittings and connect the containers after screwing together.
- the connecting means are provided on the housing, so that the provision and Vorhal ⁇ th of separate connecting means is eliminated. This facilitates handling.
- connection means may comprise Verriegelungsele ⁇ elements and recesses are so provided on the housing, that the locking elements and recesses ⁇ From side by side positioned container are engageable with each other. The engagement of locking elements and recesses is easy and fast to bring about.
- the locking element can be designed as Verriege ⁇ ment lever, which by a rotation about its longitudinal axis between a securing position, in he is held axially fixed, and a Verstellpositi ⁇ on, in which he is positioned between a single position in which it is positioned within the outer dimensions of the housing, and a connecting position, in which it is engageable with the recess of the housing of an adjacent container, in order to effect a lock with this, is displaceable in the direction of its longitudinal axis, is movable.
- In the adjustment position of the locking lever can be moved in the axial direction between the single position and the connecting position.
- the lock lever For connecting the housings of adjacent containers, the lock lever is shifted to the connection position, being inserted into the engagement area of an adjacent container. By subsequent rotation in the securing position of the locking lever ge ⁇ secures to avoid unintentional disconnection of the connected container.
- the locking lever When the locking lever is in the single position, the containers or transport units to be connected can be positioned next to each other. Moving and turning the locking elements is easy to accomplish, so that the connection of the container in a short time to produce or disconnect.
- an engagement element in particular in the form of an elongated plate is provided on the locking lever, which is feasible in the adjustment position through the recess and engages behind in the securing position.
- the Eingreifele ⁇ ment is arranged so that it by the rotation of the locking lever in the adjustment position by the Recess is feasible. In the securing position, the engaging element is rotated against the recess and fixed therein.
- a stop element may be provided on the locking lever and be positioned such that it comes into abutment with the He ⁇ rich the connection position and / or the individual position with a stop surface to limit the displacement of the locking lever.
- a movement of the locking lever can be limited by the recess to achieve the engagement substantially without play.
- the individual and / or the connecting position can be defined by the stop surfaces, so that the locking lever is easily displaced into the respective position.
- a Be ⁇ actuating lever is provided on the locking lever, with which the locking lever is movable. This allows the application of large forces ⁇ te to effect a secure connection of the housing adjacent containers. As a result, small tolerances in the positioning of the container can be compensated. Despite the size and weight of each container ei ⁇ ne reliable manual actuation of Verriegelungshe ⁇ lever is guaranteed.
- the locking lever may have a radial securing projection, which causes the axial fixing of the locking lever in the securing position.
- the locking lever can be reliably secured be when the securing projection is inserted into a corresponding recess.
- the actuating lever is pivotally held on the securing projection. Accordingly, the operating lever is shifted from the radial direction to the locking lever, which improves operability.
- pivoting the actuating lever can be used well in both the sliding and in the securing position for actuating the locking lever. Persons under ⁇ different body sizes can use the operating lever in the most comfortable for each position.
- a receptacle in particular in the form of a groove is provided, in which the actuating lever is pivotable such that it is held within the outer dimensions of the housing.
- the operating lever is thus pivoted only for producing or separating the connection of containers from the groove. In the recording, the operating lever is protected from damage and allows the usual handling of the individual containers as well as the transport units.
- the locking lever may be positioned in the support frame of the housing and operable through a window in the support frame.
- a protection of the locking lever is effected from damage and accidental operation.
- at least one recess is formed on the window, in which the securing projection can be received in the securing position in order to effect an axial securing of the locking lever. Visibility from the outside makes it easy to check the position of the locking lever.
- the recesses can be easily provided on the window, and other components are not required for the axial Fixie ⁇ tion of the locking lever.
- the container can be made simple and IDE günsitg, as in each corner area entwe ⁇ ⁇ a locking element or an engagement region is provided and surplus connecting means entfal ⁇ len.
- the housing has at least one loading opening, which is in the state connected to the transport unit at one of its outer sides. So every container can be loaded or unloaded even when connected. It is it is advantageous for reasons of symmetry that containers of a size each have similar and identically arranged La ⁇ deö Stammen. Container, in pairs form a transport unit, can be loaded from the front side of the transport unit as usual Seefrachtcon ⁇ tainer. In particular, loading of one container through another may be provided. When using containers with a low internal height, the passage of the container is made more difficult, so that loading from the longitudinal sides of the transport unit is easier to carry out.
- the at least one loading opening can be closed by a door element, in particular by a hinged door, one or two swinging doors, a sliding door or a roller door.
- Outwardly opening folding or swinging doors have the advantage that they take up no space in the interior, so that the loading volume of the container is not reduced.
- Sliding or rolling doors Benö ⁇ term contrast, a certain amount of space within the container where they can be absorbed during opening. This area must be separated from the rest of the interior of the Con ⁇ tainers to prevent blockage of the door by goods located in the container.
- Rolloder sliding doors are in principle suitable to allow a load from one container to an adjacent, since they need no space outdoors in which they are moved.
- the housing base in Wesentli ⁇ surfaces is planar. This is a transport via Rol ⁇ lensysteme or conveyor belts, as is customary in air freight traffic, without tilting or tilting of the container possible. Since the container is moved passively with its flat underside on the roller systems, even slightly different configurations of these systems ⁇ me, as they occur in different types of aircraft from different manufacturers or in various airlines, irrelevant.
- Forklift trucks are widely used efficient transport equipment that allows easy transport of containers and transport units.
- a single container and / or a plurality of containers can be transported as a transport unit of a forklift.
- the forklift pockets are so provided that they are positioned at the longitudinal side of the container or the transport unit in order to make a secure transport to be granted ⁇ .
- the forklift pockets can be attached to the support frame, which ensures high stability.
- the forklift pockets for the transportation of a single container which can partially coincide stim ⁇ men to transport a transport unit.
- Container is possible to ensure both the safe transport of a single container as well as a Trans ⁇ portö from several containers.
- the container can be made of aluminum, an aluminum alloy or reinforced plastics. These materials have an excellent stability ratio of Ge to ⁇ weight so that the weight of the container remains low. This is especially advantageous for air transport.
- the container can be designed as a refrigerated container.
- the container is insulated with an insulating layer and equipped with a cooling unit.
- the transport of perishable life ⁇ convey is possible for the rapid transport is particularly important. Since the container to a particular air freight container already has an increased stability in ⁇ , the weight gain by the insulating layer and the cooling unit is percentage low.
- a clean air ⁇ cargo container requires additional reinforcements for use as a reefer container, which accounts for the inventive containers.

- Both the container 1 of the first imple mentation form as well as the second embodiment may be performed in a manner not shown here as a refrigerated container.
- the container 1 is insulated on the inside and equipped with egg ⁇ nem cooling unit. Since these changes are only made within Container 1, they can be used as usual.
- FIG. 12 shows the fundamentally different structure of the planned aircraft of the type A400M and A350. While the A400M has only one main deck 31, the A350 has a main deck 31 and a lower deck 32 of different dimensions. As currently the only aircraft, the A380 additionally comprises a continuous upper deck 33, again with different dimensions.
- the lower deck 32 has a small height and is there ⁇ forth particularly suitable for container 1 with a height of 1626mm, as shown in FIG. 13 Due to the width of the lower decks 32 shown, in the A330, A340 and A380, the containers 1 of the first embodiment can be easily used both transversely and longitudinally.
- the containers 1 of the first embodiment are principally usable in all aircraft types shown. In the B767 and A320 aircraft, however, only one such container 1 fits on the main deck 31 with its width, while in the A330, A340, A350 and A380 aircraft two containers 1 are juxtaposed can be positioned on the main deck 31. When the A380 also two of these containers 1 are next to each other on the upper deck 33 to accommodate.
- Figure 15 shows the uses of the container 1 according to the second embodiment.
- the A380 can accommodate two such containers 1 transversely side by side on the main deck 31, while in the types A330, A340 and A350 only one such container 1 can be transversely positioned on the main deck 31.
- the containers 1 according to the present invention can be used for transport with different types of aircraft.
- a container system with a few different containers 1 is sufficient to meet the requirements of the variety of different aircraft.
- all the containers are one of this Containersys ⁇ tems also well suited for transport with other means of transport.
