Container

Abstract

The present invention discloses a container comprising a base frame, bottom side rails are provided respectively at both sides of the base frame and extends along a lengthwise direction of the container, and corner fittings are provided respectively at positions close to both ends of the each bottom side rail, the each bottom side rail is provided with a twist lock receiving groove which is formed by notching upward vertically from a bottom of the each bottom side rail, a bottom side of which is open, and a position of which corresponds to a position of a twist lock provided on a container carrier and disposed below the each bottom side rail. In the container of the present invention, it will be effective to prevent impact or press on the bottom side rails from twist locks provided on the container carrier, and the service life of the container is increased.

1 . A container comprising a base frame, in which bottom side rails are provided respectively at both sides of the base frame and extends along a lengthwise direction of the container, and corner fittings for stacking and/or lifting the container are provided respectively at positions close to both ends of each bottom side rail of said bottom side rails, wherein said each bottom side rail is provided with a twist lock receiving groove which is formed by notching upward vertically from a bottom of said each bottom side rail, a bottom side of which is open, and a position of which corresponds to a position of a twist lock provided on a container carrier for transporting the container and disposed below said each bottom side rail. 
   
   
       2 . The container according to  claim 1 , wherein a length of a container body of the container is 40 feet, and said each twist lock receiving groove is located at a position at a distance of 20 feet from one end of the container. 
   
   
       3 . The container according to  claim 1 , wherein a reinforcing rib plate is provided along a peripheral wall of said each twist lock receiving groove, a sealing plate for fixing the reinforcing rib plate is connected between the reinforcing rib plate and a top section of said each bottom side rail, and extends along a direction perpendicular to a lengthwise direction of said each bottom side rail. 
   
   
       4 . The container according to  claim 3 , wherein two widening portions are formed by extending the reinforcing rib plate respectively towards both sides of said each bottom side rail, one widening portion of said two widening portions of the reinforcing rib plate located inside said each bottom side rail is connected to a bottom plate located at a bottom of the container, and a periphery surface of the other widening portion of said two widening portions of the reinforcing rib plate located outside said each bottom side rail is connected to a reinforcement plate. 
   
   
       5 . The container according to  claim 1 , wherein a flat plate for reinforcing a strength of said each bottom side rail is fixed at a position close to the open bottom side of said each twist lock receiving groove, the flat plate is provided with a through slot extending along a lengthwise direction of said each bottom side rail, an opening of the through slot faces downwards and a width of the through slot corresponds to a size of said twist lock provided on the container carrier for transporting the container and disposed below said each bottom side rail. 
   
   
       6 . The container according to  claim 1 , wherein a width of said twist lock receiving groove is greater than 80 mm, a length of said twist lock receiving groove is less than or equal to 1500 mm, and a vertical highness from a top of said twist lock receiving groove to a bottom surface of a respective corner fitting of said corner fittings located at a bottom of the container is greater than 50 mm. 
   
   
       7 . The container according to  claim 6 , wherein the length of said twist lock receiving groove is 640 mm, and the vertical highness from the top of said twist lock receiving groove to the bottom surface of the respective corner fitting of said corner fittings located at the bottom of the container is 86 mm. 
   
   
       8 . The container according to  claim 2 , wherein a reinforcing rib plate is provided along a peripheral wall of said each twist lock receiving groove, a sealing plate for fixing the reinforcing rib plate is connected between the reinforcing rib plate and a top section of said each bottom side rail, and extends along a direction perpendicular to a lengthwise direction of said each bottom side rail. 
   
   
       9 . The container according to  claim 8 , wherein two widening portions are formed by extending the reinforcing rib plate respectively towards both sides of said each bottom side rail, one widening portion of said two widening portions of the reinforcing rib plate located inside said each bottom side rail is connected to a bottom plate located at a bottom of the container, and a periphery surface of the other widening portion of said two widening portions of the reinforcing rib plate located outside said each bottom side rail is connected to a reinforcement plate.
