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.
OFFSHORE CARGO RACK FOR USE IN TRANSFERRING FLUID HOLDING TANK LOADS BETWEEN A MARINE VESSEL AND AN OFFSHORE PLATFORM
A cargo rack for transferring loads between a marine vessel and an offshore marine platform (for example, oil and gas well drilling or production platform) provides a frame having a front, a rear, and upper and lower end portions. The lower end of the frame has a perimeter beam base, a raised floor and a pair of open-ended parallel fork tine tubes or sockets that communicate with the perimeter beam at the front and rear of the frame, preferably being structurally connected (e.g., welded) thereto. Openings in the perimeter beam base align with the forklift tine tubes or sockets. The frame includes a plurality of fixed side walls extending upwardly from the perimeter beam that include at least left and right side walls. A plurality of gates are movably mounted on the frame including a gate at least at the front and at least at the rear of the frame, each gate being movable between open and closed positions, the gates enabling a forklift to place fluid holding tanks on the floor by accessing either the front of the frame or the rear of the frame. A manifold arrangement with specially configured fittings enables transfer of fluid in any tank to a common outlet.
SHIPPING CONTAINER CONNECTOR
A shipping container connector includes a first latch unit, a second latch unit and a pulling rope unit. The first latch unit has a first body member, a first latch portion. The first body member has two side walls cooperatively defining a mounting space. One of the side walls has a threading hole. The second latch unit is disposed in the mounting space, and includes a second body member, and a spring member. The pulling rope unit extends through the threading hole, and has an end fixed to the second latch unit, and an opposite end disposed outside of the threading hole. When the pulling rope unit is pulled, the second latch unit is driven to move relative to the first latch unit from a locked position to a released position, where the spring member accumulates a biasing force for biasing the second latch unit towards the locked position.
SELF-STORAGE FACILITY, FABRICATION, AND METHODOLOGY
A storage facility. The facility comprises a plurality of load-bearing containers located at a single facility. The facility further comprises a climate controlled enclosure comprising a skin and providing a volume around the plurality of load-bearing containers. The climate controlled enclosure further comprises a ceiling above and positioned to shield an uppermost level of the plurality of load-bearing containers from outdoor environmental exposure.
BUNDED TANK SYSTEM
A bunded tank system suitable for both transport and storage of bulk dangerous industrial liquids is provided. Preferably the tank is containerised to provide efficient use of space and improved logistics for transport and storage. The containerised bunded tank system includes a plurality of bunded sub-tanks arranged in an interlocking manner within an ISO container. In addition the container is fitted with an improved container lock.
Modular Construction Supply Materials Container System and Method of Providing Same
The present invention is a system for transporting and storing construction materials for a job site using a tractor trailer having a plurality of openings, a container having a frame carrying support feet for being received into the tractor trailer openings, a plurality of attachment points carried by the frame on the floor of the interior of the container, a plurality of shelves carried by the interior of the container; and a door carried by the container having a lock.
Modular container transport systems
Disclosed are apparatus, systems, and methods, including a ground transport drive container comprising an outer container having a cuboid shape and comprising a plurality of fittings for securing the outer container to another apparatus; and a drive wheel assembly. The drive wheel assembly comprises one or more wheels and a deployment mechanism secured to the one or more wheels. An actuating member actuates the drive wheel assembly between a stowed configuration and one or more deployed configurations. In the stowed configuration, the drive wheel assembly is housed entirely within the outer container. In the one or more deployed configurations, the drive wheel assembly extends from the outer container.
Self-storage facility, fabrication, and methodology
A self-storage facility. The facility comprises a first set of commercial containers forming a first level of storage volume and a second set of commercial containers, atop the first set, forming a second level of storage volume.
Systems and methods for securing cargo containers
A securing lock for a cargo support apparatus includes one or more first locking interfaces. The one or more first locking interfaces include a tooth assembly including one or more teeth, and a jaws assembly including one or more jaws. The one or more teeth are configured to be engaged by one or more other jaws of a second locking interface of at least one other container to secure the container to the at least one other container. The one or more jaws are configured to engage one or more other teeth of the second locking interface of the at least one other container to secure the container to the at least one other container.
