A container deck of a trailer includes a front mounting floor, a central elevating floor, a rear mounting floor and a rear elevating floor, the central elevating floor is capable of loading and unloading the air container from the left or right side of the trailer vehicle body, the rear elevating floor is capable of loading and unloading the air container from any of the left and right sides and rear end, the front and rear mounting floors are provided with a roller conveyor for movably placing the container and a roller conveyor and a fixed side guide for slidably engaged the container, the central elevating floor is rotatable, the rear elevating floor includes a turntable and a ball conveyor, the central elevating floor and the rear elevating floor are capable to move up and down a single container.

An apparatus for storing or transporting flowable materials or other materials, such as diesel fuel, includes a container and a support. The container is supported by the support. The support sits on or is mounted across an upper part of an open top railway wagon or open top truck or truck trailer used for transporting bulk commodities (such as coal or iron ore). The apparatus is movable between an expanded configuration in which the container is expandable into a lower part of the open top railway wagon or open top truck or truck trailer used for transporting bulk commodities, and a collapsed configuration in which the container is collapsible to the support. In use, a railway wagon is filled with coal or other bulk commodities and the apparatus is placed on top of the railway wagon in the collapsed configuration. At the port, the coal is emptied from the railway wagon and the container of the apparatus is filled with fuel. The support supports the apparatus on the railway wagon and the container extends into the railway wagon. The fuel may then be transported back to the mine, where the apparatus is removed from the railway wagon and the container decanted. The railway wagon is again filled with coal or other bulk commodities and the apparatus is placed on top of the railway wagon in the collapsed configuration and the cycle continues to meet the fuel requirements of the relevant mine.

A transportation system has transport vehicles with electric motors, pods, being enclosed compartments that accommodate cargo, podports, being exchange stations, charging stations, and a computerized transport control system. An authorized person communicates a request to the computerized transport control system to transport a specific cargo from a first location in the geographic area to a second location in the geographic area, the computerized transport control system defines a journey from the first location to the second location, along a route comprising sequential hops through a series of podports and charging stations. The computerized transport control system manages movement of transport vehicles, exchanges at podports, and charging at charging stations along the defined route, and terminates the journey at the second location where the cargo disembarks.

An electronic trigger rotary latch includes a trigger cutout, a controller in electrical communication with a plug receiver. Springs are engaged to the latch and trigger pawls. A gear motor having an actuator engages a surface of the trigger pawl. A handle includes a striker bolt and an electrical plug. In an unlatched configuration the striker bolt is separated from the latch pawl, an electrical circuit is open, the latch pawl spring has reduced compression, the trigger pawl spring has increased compression, and the trigger tip is engaged to a latch tab. The actuator has moved the lower leg in the trigger cutout. In the latched configuration, the striker bolt is held by the latch pawl, an electrical circuit is closed, the trigger tip is engaged to the latch shoulder, and the trigger leg has been moved in the trigger cutout in an opposite direction.

An anti-rollout assembly may comprise: a housing defining a cavity; a guide/restraint head pivotably coupled to the housing at a first end of the cavity; an overridable trigger pivotably coupled to the housing at a second end of the cavity, the second end opposite the first end; and a locking system operably coupled to the guide/restraint head and the overridable trigger, the locking system configured to bias the guide/restraint head into an upright position, the locking system configured to retract the guide/restraint head into the cavity in response to a first lateral force driving the overridable trigger. The locking system may comprise a drive link and a locking link and be configured to lock the guide/restraint head in a raised state.

A stowable cargo guide may be configured to couple to a roller tray. The stowable cargo guide may comprise a guide block configured to rotate between a stowed position and a raised position. In the stowed position, the guide block may be located below a conveyance plane of the roller tray. In the raised position, the guide block may be located above the conveyance plane of the roller tray.
