Definitions

  • the invention relates to a freight container, in particular a light container for air freight, with a support frame, which is fixed to a container base and is formed from profiled bars or the like, and which at least partially covers a skin formed from sheets, fabrics or the like or fanned out and on which a door is provided within at least one frame field.
  • Flight containers of this type are known, for example, from a publication by the applicant ("Mitont", issue 4 198 0 ); the almost square base plate supports the skeleton-like supporting structure made of profile bars running at right angles to the base plate and the ridge and cross profiles connecting their ends, the ridge profiles protruding over one side of the base plate and being part of a container approach with the base part inclined upwards. The latter is directed towards the aircraft wall in the installed position of the flight container and is generally adapted to its curvature.
  • Such flight containers are usually brought to the aircraft on trolleys and pushed horizontally into the cargo hold from the loading area of the trolley.
  • a so-called Forklift version of a special design is used, under the bottom plate of which so-called pockets with a channel-like interior are provided for the forks or tines of the forklift.
  • the supporting structure in the Forklift version described must be shorter than the supporting structure of the freight containers mentioned at the outset to compensate for the height of those pockets; Both the Forklift version and the flight containers intended for trolley operation require different production, since their parts are not interchangeable.
  • An exclusive use of flight containers for the Forklift is not possible due to lack of space, so that so far all airlines have used at least the two different container versions described, with all the disadvantages of the already mentioned extensive warehousing and the further shortcoming that if necessary, a different one each - So there is a container type that is not currently needed.
  • the inventor has set itself the goal of improving a freight container of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that the disadvantages identified are eliminated and, above all, both container Versions with simplified warehousing and production are available in the desired type.
  • an intermediate floor is provided with channel-like profiles on its underside and is releasably connected to the base plate and / or the supporting structure.
  • Such an intermediate floor makes it possible to prepare the freight container for use as a Forklift version in a few simple steps, without having to change the container dimensions or even use a different container concept.
  • the storage of operational containers and spare parts is reduced to an exceptionally high degree.
  • the so-called Forklift attachment preferably consists of a base plate, the intermediate floor, and U-profiles attached to it, the free legs of which are bent at a distance from the underside of the intermediate base to base webs, which sit on the base plate of the container in the Forklift version, while the top the intermediate floor becomes the loading area in the container interior.
  • the Forklift attachment or the one-piece insert can be connected to the container in a different way, whereby it remains essential that quick releasability or locking is possible.
  • the relatively low height of the attachment is compensated for in a few simple steps when converting the container both on the door and on the back panel opposite it; these are made possible by further features according to the invention.
  • the prior art includes multi-part doors, which are primarily hinged to the ridge profile and can be folded parallel to the base plate.
  • Such foldable doors are characterized in the context of the invention in that the width of a gap existing between the door leaves corresponds at least to the height of the top or insert and is closed by a flexible strip of material; this advantageously has piping beads on its longitudinal edges, which are detachably mounted in piping grooves in the door leaf. Thanks to these measures, the length of the door can be adapted to the essay by reducing that gap and can be extended again after it has been removed. Unfortunately, it's over For customs reasons it is necessary to rivet hinges of different lengths to replace the height difference or to replace them after removing the rivets.
  • That strip of material can also be replaced by another different width when changing the gap width. If, moreover, there was talk that the width of the gap between the door leaves corresponds to the height of the attachment, this naturally applies to the condition before the shortening required by the attachment and only insofar as the sum of the gap widths of the door corresponds to the height of the attachment must correspond.
  • keder channels are parts of profile bars which, according to the invention, run at least on the longitudinal edges of the door leaves, but preferably form their frame. Then the piping channels arranged on the outer edges of the door are used to insert corresponding beads of sealing lips. These keder profiles in turn lead to very convenient handling and equipment of the container doors.
  • the back panel opposite the container door in the normal version of the flight container has a profile bar at the lower edge which connects the panel edge to the base plate or a hollow profile delimiting it.
  • That profile bar is removed and replaced by an angle piece that rests on the attachment with one leg and with the other leg lies against the back panel.
  • This angle piece or angle profile is preferably part of the attachment, so it is stored or transported with it.
  • a cargo container or container 1 which serves in particular as a light container for air transport, has a supporting structure 3 above a base plate 2; from a base frame 2 surrounding that base plate 2, a length a of 1534 mm given in the selected exemplary embodiment and a width b of 2003 mm from hollow profiles 5, 6 protrude from these u. a. with corner plates 7 fixed, also hollow - profile bars 8, 9, each of which has two ridge profiles 10 running parallel to the longitudinal axis M of the container to form a side frame. Total height h of 1623 mm are summarized here.
  • the latter also contains a frame field filled out by a sheet metal plate 16 with an inclined base profile 12 and an end profile 13 extending between this and that ridge profile 10.
  • Stiffening cross profiles 14 are arranged between the two ridge profiles 10.
  • An inclined base strip 17, a short outer panel 18, a high end wall 19 and a roof panel 20 are fixed, preferably riveted, and reinforced by external edge profiles 21 on the supporting frame 3.
  • the rear side frame 4/7/8/10 of the container 1 in FIG. 1 is closed by a back panel 24 shown in FIG. 4, which is riveted to the profile bars 8, 9 and the ridge profile 10 and a comb web 25 of a base profile 26; the latter is placed on the hollow profile 6 of the floor frame 4 with a sealing strip 27 — neglected in FIG. 5 for reasons of clarity.
  • Hollow profile 5 is equipped with an insert groove 32 upwards in addition to a fastening leg 31; the other hollow profile 6 also shows such an insert groove 32 and along this a molded lip 33 directed towards the container interior 30 and inclined towards the base plate 2.
  • the side of the container 1 facing the viewer of FIG. 1 is closed by a multipart and foldable door 35, which is connected to the cross profiles 14 by means of hinges or by other holding members 36 at both ends via hinge bolts 37, optionally also directly to the ridge profile 10 which those cross profiles 14 and the roof panel 20 are connected thanks to a side ridge 25 of the ridge profile 10. From the box body 38 of the ridge profile 10 protrudes at an angle of 90 ° to that ridge 25 an edge ridge 39 to the door 35 to bridge the gap between the box body 38 and the adjacent door edge.
  • the door 35 is composed of a plurality of frames formed from piping profiles 40 of the same cross-section and within these planks 41 connected to comb webs 35 of the piping profiles 40.
  • a keder groove 42 is formed on the keder profile 40 on the opposite side of the comb 25, the undercut groove 43 of which, by definition, can accommodate the bead body 44 of a sealing lip 45; such sealing lips 45 can be seen in FIGS. 8, 10, 13, the sealing lips 45 a pointing towards the floor having a longer cross section than those at the upper edge of the door 35.
  • the piping profiles 40 provided with the hinges 46 receive in their mutually facing piping channels 42 edge piping 47 of a sealing bellows 48 which covers a door gap 49 of height i and - as the adjacent FIGS. 9 and 11 readily offer - is provided interchangeably.
  • the container 1 described is converted to a so-called fork lift version for transport with forklifts, ie. H.
  • a so-called forklift attachment 51 (FIG. 12) consisting of cover plate 52 and U-profiles 53 is placed on the surface 50 of the base plate 2.
  • the latter hold the cover plate 52 with an angular profile 56 reinforcing its rear edge and a hollow profile 5 of the base frame 4 which is then parallel corresponding profile rod 57 at a distance q to the base plate 2.
  • the angled legs of those U-profiles 53 rest with their base webs 54 on that surface 50; the interior 55 of those U-profiles 53 forms pockets for the tines of a forklift not shown in the drawing.
  • the back panel 24 is either adjusted by removing the foot profile 26 or - in another embodiment - by an in Fig. 13 schematically reproduced change.
  • a keder profile 40 a which is also provided on the back panel 24, is removed by loosening bolts 61 and replaced by an angle bar 62, which is fixed to the forklift attachment 51 during its period of use, or by its angle profile 56.
  • hollow profiles 5 f extending between door 35 and back panel 24 are equipped with profile ribs 70 directed towards container interior 30; an integral insert 71, preferably an extruded hollow profile, is inserted between the latter and the base plate 2, the height n of which corresponds to the already mentioned distance t between the surfaces 50, 60 of the base plate 2 or forklift attachment 51.
  • This insert consists of two profile walls 73, 74 connected by profile webs 72; those profile webs 72 laterally delimit insertion channels 75.
