Mobile container module for military and/or humanitarian field operations

Abstract

A container module for military and/or humanitarian field operations has a floor, a roof cover and side walls which, at least in the transport state, form a substantially closed, preferably cuboid container housing. A number of technical devices are permanently installed in the container housing and determine the functional scope of the container module. The container housing is permanently mounted on a load-bearing transport plate.

1 . A mobile container module for decontamination of people or items of personal equipment in field conditions, the container module having a predefined functional scope, a deployed state for decontamination and a transport state for transport, the container module comprising
 a floor, a roof cover and side walls defining a substantially closed container housing in the transport state,   a number of technical devices configured to allow the decontamination of people or items of personal equipment, the technical devices determining the functional scope, and   a load-bearing transport plate on which the container housing is permanently installed, the load-bearing transport plate being configured to be secured in helicopters or other transport aircraft,   wherein the majority of the technical devices is spatially grouped together and permanently installed in the container housing.   
   
   
       2 . The mobile container module of  claim 1 , wherein the transport plate is a standard pallet designed for loading and securing loose items of equipment in helicopters or other transport aircraft. 
   
   
       3 . The mobile container module of  claim 1 , wherein the container housing is moveably mounted on the transport plate in a manner to allow a longitudinal movement along at least one longitudinal direction. 
   
   
       4 . The mobile container module of  claim 1 , wherein the transport plate has an upper face designed to support the container housing, and at least two guide rails arranged on the upper face and running parallel to one another, with the floor being attached to the guide rails. 
   
   
       5 . The mobile container module of  claim 4 , wherein the floor comprises sliding blocks arranged to engage in the guide rails. 
   
   
       6 . The mobile container module of  claim 1 , wherein the transport plate is longer than the floor in at least one longitudinal direction. 
   
   
       7 . The mobile container module of  claim 1 , further comprising at least one intermediate wall, which subdivides the container housing into a first subarea and a separate second subarea, with the majority of the technical devices being installed in the separate second subarea. 
   
   
       8 . The mobile container module of  claim 7 , wherein the at least one intermediate wall includes a vertical wall section, such that the first and the second subareas are arranged at least partially alongside one another on the transport plate. 
   
   
       9 . The mobile container module according to  claim 7 , further comprising at least two shower trays, at least one of which forms the roof cover in the transport state. 
   
   
       10 . The mobile container module of  claim 9 , further comprising at least one lamellar curtain, by means of which the at least two shower trays can be selectively separated. 
   
   
       11 . The mobile container module of  claim 7 , further comprising a tent which, in the transport state, is accommodated in the first subarea. 
   
   
       12 . The mobile container module of  claim 7 , further comprising a first water tank which is arranged largely over the entire floor. 
   
   
       13 . The mobile container module of  claim 7 , further comprising at least one second, foldable water tank, which is arranged in the first subarea. 
   
   
       14 . The mobile container module of  claim 13 , further comprising insulation walls configured to be detachably plugged together in order to form a tank housing surrounding the second water tank, and comprising an air heater designed to heat the internal area with warm air. 
   
   
       15 . The mobile container module of  claim 1 , wherein the technical devices comprise at least one of the following devices: heater for heating fresh water, heater for heating air, air-conditioning unit, generator for electricity generation and/or electrical power conversion. 
   
   
       16 . A mobile container module for military and/or humanitarian field operations, the container module having a predefined functional scope, a deployed state for carrying out the field operations, and a transport state for transport, the container module comprising
 a floor, a roof cover and side walls defining a substantially closed container housing in the transport state,   a number of technical devices configured to enable the field operations, the technical devices determining the functional scope, and   a load-bearing transport plate on which the container housing is permanently installed, the load-bearing transport plate being a pallet designed for loading and securing loose items of equipment in helicopters or other transport aircraft,   wherein the majority of the technical devices is grouped together and permanently installed in the container housing, and   wherein the container housing is moveably mounted on the transport plate in a manner to allow a longitudinal movement along at least one longitudinal direction.   
   
   
       17 . A mobile container system for military and/or humanitarian field operations, comprising a first and a second container module, with each container module having a floor, a roof cover and side walls, which, at least in a transport state, form a substantially closed container housing, with each container module having a number of technical devices required for carrying out the field operations, with the majority of the technical devices being grouped together and permanently installed in the container housing, and with each container module having a load-bearing transport plate on which the container housing is permanently mounted.
