A MODULAR LOGISTICS SYSTEM
A modular logistics system (10) including: a container (12) having a top (14), a base (16), side walls (18) and end walls (20); and a storage frame (23) housed within the container (12) in an operationally ready state, wherein in a first configuration the side walls (18) and end walls (20) are fixed to form an enclosure around the storage frame (23) for transport of the storage system (10), and in a second configuration the end panels (20) are removable to allow extension of the storage frame (23), and at least a portion of one of the side walls (18) is removable to provide access to the storage frame (23) during use, so that the container (12) and the storage frame (23) are transported and installed as a single unit.
Bulk material shipping container
A bulk material shipping container including a pallet, a compartment mounted on the pallet, a material unloading assembly, and a material loading assembly.
Proppant discharge system and a container for use in such a proppant discharge system
A proppant discharge system has a container with an outlet formed at a bottom thereof and a gate slidably affixed at the outlet so as to be movable between a first position covering the outlet to a second position opening the outlet, and a support structure having an actuator thereon. The container is removably positioned on the top surface of the support structure. The actuator is engageable with gate so as to move the gate from the first position to the second position. A conveyor underlies the container so as to receive proppant as discharged from the container through the outlet. The container is a ten foot ISO container.
SELF-UNLOADING CONTAINER FOR THE TRANSPORT OF CEREALS AND OILSEEDS
A container to be used with trucks, semitrailers, railway wagons and ships, so as to carry out a multimodal transport where the transport by land, railway and fluvial routes is combined as needed. The container has a metal parallelepiped structure which contains a truck bed receiving the material, and one end it is mounted over a hinging resource that allows its turn regarding a lower cross axis; and at another end it is connected with a hydraulic cylinder that is fixed over the basis of the mentioned metallic structure and has its end free of its piston linked to the upper and rear cross edge of the truck bed.
CONTAINMENT UNIT
Example embodiments relate to containment units usable for safely containing, storing and transporting items such as electric vehicles.
Enclosure system for storage
A method of loading a flexible enclosure, and the flexible enclosure. The enclosure has a floor, a sealable port, and a top enclosure. The top enclosure has an opening that is sealingly closable with an airtight closure. The method includes the steps of selecting a parking location for the enclosure, and positioning the enclosure over the parking location. Equipment, such as a vehicle is loaded in the enclosure. The enclosure is sealed, and the internal atmosphere of the enclosure is modified, such as lowering the oxygen content of the interior atmosphere.
Modular shipping apparatus and system
A modular shipping apparatus having a shipping container with a bottom interior with a first track and a second track attached thereto; a base having a bottom portion with at least two wheel assemblies that slide along the first track and the second track; a pulley system assembly attached to the bottom interior of the shipping container and the top side of the liftgate to drag the base along the first track and the second track, wherein the pulley system assembly has a wheel end installed along an underside of the shipping container, a pulley end that is attached to the top side of the lift gate, a strap that is wrapped around the wheel end and the pulley end and attached to a portion of the base to drag the base along the tracks of the shipping container when removing the base from the shipping container.
MOBILE DISTRIBUTION PLATFORM APPARATUS AND METHODS USED THEREIN
A mobile distribution platform apparatus and method utilizing an over the road tractor platform constructed to be freely movable upon the road system. A plurality of ramps are each pivotally joined to the platform and each pivotable between a raised travel configuration and lowered to an extending loading configuration. Each ramp further includes a plurality of adjustable removable support jacks which may be installed on the underside of a ramp and extend downwardly therefrom to provide support for the ramp in its loading configuration. The mobile distribution platform provides a transportation and distribution hub which may be located as required without the need of stationary support facilities. In addition to providing a road transport hub, the present invention mobile distribution platform also provides the capability to locate adjacent a section of railroad track without the need of supporting stationary facilities.
Portable collapsible container
The portable collapsible container includes a collapsible frame assembly having a plurality of open frames and a plurality of scissor linkages. Adjacent ones of the open frames are adjustably coupled to one another by a respective one of the scissor linkages. The collapsible frame assembly further includes a plurality of hinged vertically extending panels mounted to and extending between adjacent open frames. A first cover member is secured to a first end frame and a second cover member is secured to a second end frame. A first end of an upper foldable panel is secured to an upper end of the first cover member, and a first end of a lower foldable panel is secured to a lower end of the first cover member. Pulling the second cover member away from the first cover member expands the collapsible frame assembly.
Transportable refrigerated container and method of distribution of perishable goods
A transportable refrigerated container has an interior chamber sub-divided into separate compartments by movable partitions that allow free air circulation to maintain the compartments at the same temperature and a plurality of security doors in at least one of the sides of the container, each door affording access only to a selected respective compartment or group of compartments. A method of distributing perishable goods from a supply depot to a plurality of customers utilizes such a container. At the supply depot, goods for different customers are loaded into separate compartments and the container is then transported to a location convenient to all the customers. There, delivery drivers who can each only open a door leading to a compartment containing goods intended for a specific customer, transfer the goods from the compartment onto a smaller vehicle and deliver them to their respective customer.
