A safety door latch system is presented for a grain bin having a door frame. An inner door is connected to the door frame that is configured to move between an open position and a closed position. An outer door is connected to the door frame and is configured to move between an open position and a closed position. A safety mechanism is connected to the door frame and is configured to move between an open position and a closed position. When the inner door frame is moved to a closed position, a portion of the inner door engages the safety mechanism thereby causing the safety mechanism to move to the closed position. When the safety mechanism is in the closed position, the outer door may be latched to the safety mechanism. When the safety mechanism is in the open position, the outer door cannot latch to the safety mechanism.

A cargo securement system for securing cargo in a container includes a number of extendable upper and extendable lower braces. The extendable upper braces mount to an upper portion of the framework of a module and extend to engage the container. The extendable lower braces extend from the floor system of the module and engage the walls of the container to apply a force that secures the module in place.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide for modular containers with specialized corner fittings. In one example, a container, includes: six sides; and eight corner fittings, wherein each respective corner fitting of the eight corner fittings comprises: a first outward face on a first side of the six sides; a second outward face on a second side of the six sides; a third outward face on a third side of the six sides; and a corner fitting aperture in at least one of the first outward face, second outward face, or third outward face and centered approximately 3.379 inches from a first edge of the respective corner fitting and approximately 3.379 inches from a second edge of the respective corner fitting.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide a modular container, including: six sides, wherein: each side of the six sides of the modular container comprises at least four surface connectors, each surface connector of the at least four surface connectors comprises at least two connector elements, at least one connector element of the at least two connector elements is of a first type, and at least one connector element of the at least two connector elements is of a second type; and an access door in at least one side of the six sides.

A canopy for a compressor or generator installation comprising a chassis (2) with—a base plate (3) comprising a body with a mounting surface bounded by a polygonal peripheral edge (4); and—a mounting frame (5) containing this base plate (3) and going around the peripheral edge (4); whereby the canopy (1) further comprises a number of corner stays (6), whereby each corner stay (6) is provided with a mounting end which is configured to be mounted onto the chassis (2), whereby at each corner of the peripheral edge (4), at least one corner stay (6) is mounted with its mounting end onto the chassis (2), whereby each corner stay (6) in a mounted state extends from the mounting surface of the base plate (3) in a direction essentially perpendicular to the mounting surface and outwards from the body of the base plate (3), and whereby each corner stay (6) in a mounted state has a free end which is opposite to the mounting end of this corner stay (6) and which is not mounted onto the mounting surface; and whereby the canopy (1) further comprises at least one roof panel (9), characterised in that at each one corner of the peripheral edge (4), the free end of the at least one corner stay (6) is configured to be connected by means of at least one lateral beam (10) to the free end of the at least one corner stay (6) which is mounted at a corner adjacent to said one corner; and that the canopy (1) further comprises a number of lateral beams (10) such that, at each one corner of the peripheral edge (4), the free end of the at least one corner stay (6) at said one corner is connected to the free end of the at least one corner stay (6) which is mounted at a corner adjacent to said one corner.

A transportable container assembly including a transportable container defining an enclosed interior space and having an opening member cooperatively engaging a mounting frame. The opening member has a closed position and an open position and access to the interior space is permitted in the open position. A localized device or system is attached to the transportable container and is coupled to an electrical power source. A reed switch apparatus coupled to the transportable container communicates the position of the opening member to the localized device or system. The localized device or system provides a localized function depending on the reported position of the opening member. The localized function includes at least one of a group consisting of a local lighting function, local locking mechanism action and local refrigeration system action/function. The localized device or system communicates the position of the opening member to a remote device or system at a location remote from the transportable container. The remote device or system is capable of providing remote monitoring and control functions or actions at the transportable container depending on the communicated position of the opening member.

Disclosed is a closure for a door of a shipping container. The closure includes a housing, an outside handle pivotally mounted relative to the housing, an inside handle pivotally mounted relative to the housing, and a catch connected to the inside handle. The closure is configured so that movement of the inside handle between a first position and a second position causes corresponding movement of the catch. A locking mechanism can releasably fix the inside handle relative to the outside handle, such that when in a locked position rotation of the outside handle causes corresponding rotation of the inside handle and when in an unlocked position the inside handle can be rotated independently of the outside handle.

A container assembly configured for loading into/onto a Unit Load Device (ULD) generally includes first and second containers. Rearward sides of the first and second containers include a securing catchment assembly for mating and securing the first and second containers. Frontward sides of the first and second containers each include a plurality of female/male door securing assemblies that complementarily mate with male/female door securing assemblies of a door assembly. When the first and second containers are mated, the container assembly defines an outer perimeter that is smaller than an inner perimeter of the ULD. The outer perimeter of the container assembly has a shape generally conforming with the shape of the inner perimeter of the ULD. One or more shock absorption assemblies/airbag assemblies configured to reduce vibration and movement of the container assembly are disposable between one or more walls of the ULD and the first and second containers/container assembly.
