Definitions

• Container for transport of products, especially in the form of coils
• the present invention is a container for the transport of products, especially in the form of coils, designed to be moved by cranes, forklift trucks, overhead cranes, or container carriers.
• a container for transport of various products including those of a circular cross-section, in which the floor is equipped with deflected covering plates is known from the American patent application US2003106822.
• the flaps In the closed position the flaps form one plane with the floor, allowing transport of products on pallets, or having a stable basis.
• the flaps In the open position the flaps reveal cavities located in the floor of the container, which provide two points of support for oval objects located horizontally. If the object has a large diameter, the points of support are provided by deflected flaps which, in the open position, form an extension of a cavity in the floor.
• the disadvantage of the solution, according to the invention is that the floor of the container must be thick in order to provide enough space for sufficiently deep cavities Therefore, while maintaining the standard external dimensions of the container, the amount of space available inside is reduced.
• a container holding a floor adapted to carry cylindrical objects is shown.
• the container is equipped with sets of pivoting supports in the floor.
• the supports can be arranged perpendicularly or parallel to the longer axis of symmetry of the floor. In the closed position the supports form one plane with the floor, while in the open position they form a trough in the shape of an inverted isosceles trapezium which provides three points of support for oval objects.
• the mechanism locking the supports in the open and closed positions is in the floor, directly under the support.
• the container is also equipped with a rigid, removable roof, so that products can be loaded and unloaded from the container also by a cranes or a high lift forklift truck.
• the aim of the invention is to elaborate a container having a floor adapted to transport cargo on pallets, freestanding, and cylinder-shaped objects such as steel coils, which provides high stability for the transport of objects, irrespective of their length, while still being resistant to mechanical damage.
• the essence of the solution according to the invention is a container for the transport of products, particularly in the form of coils, comprising the floor, two side walls, a front wall, two doors with a lock, and a removable rigid roof with a fastening mechanism, where the floor is equipped with at least one pair of pivoting supports with a locking system, grouped in at least one pair, placed along its longer axis of symmetry, opposite to each other, which, in the closed position, form one horizontal plane with the floor, while in the raised position they form a trough.
• the solution is characterized in that the pivoting support, being a part of one pair, is made up of a flap connected to the flap support or a wide flap connected to the wide flap support.
• the flap and the wide flap are movably connected to the floor by means of hinges located on one of their edges.
• the flap and the wide flap are movably connected, by the other edge, to the flap support or to the wide flap support by hinges.
• the floor has two grooves, parallel to each other and running through its whole length, located on both sides of the longer axis of symmetry of the floor. The grooves are lying horizontally under the flap supports or wide flap supports.
• the flap and the wide flap and the flap support and the wide flap supports are in the shape of a rectangular.
• the floor has preferably two pairs of flaps and two pairs of flap supports of corresponding width, that are on the shorter ends of the floor, and between them there are two pairs of wide flaps and wide flap supports of corresponding width.
• the flap and the flap support are narrower than the wide flap and the wide flap supports.
• the flap and the flap support have three hinges each, and the wide flap and the wide flap supports have five hinges each.
• the flap and the wide flap are equipped with two oval handles.
• the flap and the wide flap are equipped with an anti-slip layer.
• the anti-slip layer is made of rubber.
• the fastening mechanism on the roof consists of two locking bars positioned perpendicularly to the longer edges of the roof.
• the lock of each door leaf consists of two locking bars. At the edges of the doors there is a sheet rubber gasket.
• Each door leaf preferably has a latch hook.
• Each of the side walls has two attachment mechanisms for the roof, which are connected to the locking bars.
• Each of the side walls has a door hold compatible with the catch hook.
• the floor is equipped with small hinged rectangular flaps, located on opposite sides of the longer axis of symmetry of the floor, the flaps being mounted on strap hinges and are placed under the flap supports lying horizontally and/or wide flap supports.
• the floor has two rectangular through holes placed under its usable layer, parallel to the shorter axis of symmetry of the floor, the spacing of the holes being identical to the spacing of the two large handles situated on the roof.
• the usable layer of the floor is made of a flat sheet.
• the fill of the door frame structure consists of a flat sheet with moulded sections while the fill of the structure of the side walls, the front wall, and the roof is made of a trapezoidal sheet, where the roof surface in the area extending between its longer edges, where the big and small handles are positioned, is made of a flat sheet.
• the fill of the roof frame structure is a flat sheet with moulded sections.
• eight small handles are located on each side wall, along its upper and lower edges.
• Above the upper edge of the door there is a beam which is detachably connected to the side walls.
• corner fittings Preferably, on the corners of the container structure there are corner fittings.
• An advantage of the invention is to provide a container which is adapted to carry objects on pallets, free-standing, and oval objects such as steel coils.
• the solution according to the invention makes the carrying of oval objects of different lengths possible.
• only one support to stabilize may be used and the rest of the floor may be left flat. This allows to maximize the container surfaces.
• a long line of contact of a cylindrical object with a support ensures more friction and thus greater object stability in the case of moving the container.
• the anti-slip layer mounted increases friction.
• a large area of support consisting of a flap and flap support increases its resistance to mechanical damage.
• the simple system of connection of individual elements of the support makes the assembly and disassembly as well as replacement of defective parts its easy.
