A structure has spaces that can accommodate at least two International Organization for Standardization compliant shipping containers. The structure has studs, joists, and rafters connected together above, besides, between, and in front of the spaces for the shipping containers. The structure provides for an attractive outdoor retail space with shading, allowing for signage, decorations, product display, ergonomics, and other retail design features. In an implementation, the structure is for a mobile retail space that is tailored for customizing and manufacture of the customized apparel, especially the laser finishing of products like jeans. The mobile retail space can be relocated to and deployed easily at various events, such as sports events and music festival venues.

Features for a solar generation system. The system includes a solar generator that may be installed on a shipping container. The solar generator includes one or more deployable rotating solar arrays. The rotating solar arrays may be deployed and stowed using actuators. The rotating solar arrays may be stowed for transport of the system on ships or to remote locations. The solar panels of the array are unexposed when stowed. A base frame with corner castings may attach to standard connections on cargo containers. The solar generators may be stacked on top of each other when stowed for transport. An actuation system may include linear actuators with two arms connecting at a moving pivot point that attach to a base frame and to the panels for deployment. Another actuation system may include end-mounted linear actuation arms with panel backside-mounted deployment arms.

A containment basin system includes a basin and a lifting brace configured to be secured to and stabilize the basin for lifting and emptying operations. The basin includes a bottom wall, three or more side walls, and a lip extending around a top of all of the side walls. The bottom wall includes two transverse recesses. The lifting brace includes a base, two guide rails extending perpendicularly from the base, and two receptacles extending perpendicularly from the base. The two receptacles of the lifting brace are configured to engage the two transverse recesses of the basin. Each of the receptacles includes a central space dimensioned to receive a fork of a fork lift. The two guide rails each includes an upper guide and a lower guide configured to receive the lip of the basin therebetween.

An exemplary approach for protecting floorings in containers may utilize a first ledger attached to an upper portion of a first support beam associated with a foundational base assembly. A portion of the first ledger may protrude outward in a first horizontal direction from the upper portion of the first support beam. A second ledger may be attached to an upper portion of a second support beam next to the first support beam. A portion of the second ledger may protrude outward in a second horizontal direction from the upper portion of the second support beam. The second horizontal direction may face the first horizontal direction. A support panel may be placed on top of the portion of the first ledger and the portion of the second ledger. The support panel may have a length proximate to a distance between the first support beam and the second support beam.

The invention relates to a container arrangement comprising a plurality of connected containers, each for storing an automated storage and retrieval system. A coupling arrangement connects and aligns connected containers side-by-side. The containers may be intermodal containers. The invention also relates to a method for providing such an arrangement.

A bulk fluid storage container has a top wall structure and a bottom wall structure held in spaced relation by a side wall structure. An internal baffle assembly is disposed in the fluid storage volume between the side wall structure for reducing fluid sloshing. A fill port formed in the top wall structure has a fill flange for coupling with a source of the fluid. A vent port formed in the top wall structure has a pressure vacuum value. A drain port formed in the side wall structure in a lower region adjacent the gutter region has a drain valve assembly is coupled to the drain port. A frame assembly includes an upper rectangular frame member and a lower rectangular frame member arranged in spaced relation by a plurality of post; wherein the frame assembly surrounds and supports the fluid storage vessel.

A hang harvesting system for deployment in a cargo container includes an anchor bar, a column bar, and a hanging bar. The anchor bar includes a first end portion and second end portion configured to engage sidewalls of the cargo container. The column bar includes a top end portion and a bottom end portion, wherein the top end portion is configured to couple to the anchor bar. The hanging bar is coupled to the column bar.

A modular structure system includes a plurality of shipping containers arranged to form a contiguous enclosure comprising an interior volume of the plurality of shipping containers, wherein each of the plurality of shipping containers comprises a first side defining an opening configured to be arranged opposite and adjacent to a corresponding opening in a first side of a different shipping container of the plurality to form the contiguous enclosure; a bottom group of the plurality of shipping containers including bottom sides having floor sections arranged to form a bottom floor of the modular structure; a top group of the plurality of shipping containers including top sides having ceiling sections arranged to form a top ceiling of the modular structure; and a side group of the plurality of shipping containers comprising a second side having a side wall arranged to form exterior right and left side walls of the modular structure.

An apparatus, system and method for securing wheeled shipping carts within a shipping container. The apparatus, system and method for securing wheeled shipping carts within a shipping container secures the shipping racks across the width of the container and vertically, and then end-to-end inside the length of the container from the fixed end of the container to the doors as the container is loaded. In addition, the system and method secures wheeled shipping carts within a shipping container using a securing apparatus installed within the shipping container to constrain the wheeled shipping carts both vertically and horizontally in location during transport.
