STACKABLE FLAT-PACK SHIPPING CONTAINER WITH SEGMENTED ROOF
A modular container is provided having a base. A plurality of panels is coupled to the base to form an enclosure having an internal volume. The plurality of panels substantially defines an outer perimeter, and substantially defines a top circumferential edge of the modular container. At least one door provides access to the internal volume. A roof having a shoebox flange is coupled to the plurality of panels. The shoebox flange circumscribes the roof and defines the outer perimeter of the roof. The shoebox flange fits over the top circumferential edge. The roof comprises a plurality of individual roof panels that are fastenable together. The modular container, when in a disassembled and flat-packed state, fits at least one of horizontally and vertically in an ISO container.
Modular particulate storage system
A modular particulate storage system includes a plurality of portable skids, wherein each skid includes an elongate rectangular base supporting a floor section and a wall section extending upward from the floor section. The plurality of portable skids are securable together in a side-by-side configuration to form a storage bay having a contiguous rectangular floor that combines the floor sections of the plurality of portable skids and a contiguous wall that combines the walls sections of the plurality of portion skids and extends along three sides of the contiguous rectangular floor. One side of the contiguous rectangular floor includes an open passageway into the storage bay. A skid may be formed as a trailer that may be lowered to be supported by the ground.
Adjustable storage systems, adjustable storage receptacles, and methods of manufacturing and using the same
Adjustable storage systems, adjustable storage receptacles, and methods of manufacturing and using the same are disclosed. In one aspect, an adjustable storage system includes a plurality of adjustable storage receptacles, each of which may include a housing, an opening/closing mechanism, and an expansion mechanism. The expansion mechanism may be operable to increase or decrease an interior storage volume of the associated storage receptacle, enabling greater flexibility in storing objects of different shapes and sizes, relative to a fixed-size or fixed-geometry storage receptacle. In additional aspects, a method of using an adjustable storage receptacle and a method of using an adjustable storage system are provided, and further, a method of manufacturing an adjustable storage receptacle and a method of manufacturing an adjustable storage system are provided.
Telescopic shipping container
The invention relates to a telescopic shipping container transformable between a reduced configuration having reduced height and an erected configuration, the container including a top segment and a bottom segment. The container bottom segment includes a rigid base panel having four corner fittings and the container top segment includes a rigid roof panel having four corner fittings. The container includes four corner posts each extending between a roof corner fitting and a base corner fitting and including a top element rigidly connected to the roof panel and a bottom element rigidly connected to the base panel, each corner post having a retractable/extendable configuration. The container is characterized in that the container includes a front-end panel having at least one hinged door leaf. The door leaf includes a top section pivotably connected to the top element of the adjacent corner post, a bottom section pivotably connected to the bottom element of the adjacent corner post, and an intermediate section that is in telescopic engagement with the top section of the door leaf and with the bottom section of the door leaf. The intermediate section interconnects the top section and the bottom section.
Roll-off container, system with at least two roll-off containers, an equipment trolley system and use of a roll-off container
A roll-off container, a system consisting of at least two roll-off containers, an equipment trolley system and the use of a roll-off container are described. The roll-off container comprises a main frame arranged on a platform. The platform comprises attachment rollers on its bottom side and an upward-pointing hook with a transverse strut on a face side. The main frame comprises a bottom, side walls, and roof sections. On an upper end of the main frame on both longitudinal sides, a roof structure is rotatably mounted, wherein the roof structure comprises at least first and second roof-frame sections, each having a width equal to a height of the side walls of the main frame, and a length of which corresponds to a length of the main frame.
