A movable equipment loading and unloading structure for movably mounting equipment within a container includes a loading and unloading assembly and a guide assembly. The loading and unloading assembly includes a loading and unloading rail mounted to a ceiling of the container and a loading and unloading wheel assembly movably coupled to the loading and unloading rail. The loading and unloading wheel assembly is mounted to a side of the equipment. The guide assembly includes a guide rail mounted to a floor of the container and at least one guide wheel rollably coupled to the guide rail. The guide wheel is mounted to another side of the equipment opposite to the side mounted to the loading and unloading wheel assembly.

A system and method for cultivating plants is described. The system may include a tower structure having a vertical series of vessels for holding a netted pot or other container. The system may have a pressurized irrigation system that is in fluid communication with each vessel. The system may further include lamps to provide an adequate light source. The system may also include sensors, monitors and controls to establish and maintain environmental conditions suitable for proper plant growth. The system may further be implemented as a scalable system in which multiple tower structures may be installed into a scaffold system. Sets of towers may be slidably affixed to a scaffold such that the towers may be slid along a track thereby creating easy access to the plants, vessels, lights and the irrigation system. The system may be expanded to include multiple scaffolds affixed to a skeletal frame or compartment interior.

A flexible tank has an inner tank and at least one end closure with alternating interlaced hollow loops from two separate exterior layers. A nylon rope or similar securing element is passed through the hollow loops to use the exterior layers in an end closure to constrain the inner tank. An end flap may be welded to an exterior layer and positioned between the inner tank and the end closure. The hollow loops may be formed by folding over the exterior layers and cutting out complementary portions so the loops are in an alternating interlaced pattern.

A method for mounting an inner support beam of a container, including: fixing a bottom support beam and a back support beam to a container body in a reusable and detachable manner; supporting the bottom support beam on a floor of the container body, and supporting the back support beam on a side wall corrugated plate. The back support beam is supported in a groove of the side wall corrugated plate, and the top end of the back support beam is connected to the side wall corrugated plate in the reusable and detachable manner. The end of the bottom support beam is jointed to the bottom end of the back support beam in the reusable and detachable manner and in a manner of restricting a movement of the bottom end of the back support beam in a direction away from the side wall corrugated plate.

A double door temporary bulkhead locking member comprising a single or joined rigid material with the angle apex pointing inward. The temporary bulkhead is wedged across the width of the inside opening of a container. When the flowable product is installed into the container the pressure on the bulkhead is transferred to the outer edges sealing the product into the container. The temporary bulkhead material has a series of creases, notches, slots and shapes that are folded and locked into the proprietary shape. A single door bulkhead locking member comprising a single or joined rigid material as a straight plain panel to fit into the single doorway of a shipping container. The temporary bulkhead is wedged across the width of the inside opening of a container when one door is closed and the other open. When the flowable product is installed into the container the pressure on the bulkhead is transferred to the outer edges sealing the product into the container. The temporary bulkhead material has a series of creases, notches, slots and shapes that are folded and locked into the proprietary shape.

Presenting an auxiliary storage apparatus and aircraft container that enables existing non-regulated temperature containers to be equipped with specific features such as cooling, heating, and humidifying features. The storage container with specific features is inserted into a non-regulated temperature container for aircraft use and affixed to the interior of the non-regulated temperature container by the auxiliary storage apparatus, which includes a wire that passes over the storage container, hooks and pulleys that affix to existing support brackets located on four corners of a floor surface, and a turnbuckle. One end of the wire hooks onto a first hook. The wire passes over the storage container and winds around the pulleys. The other end of the wire attaches to a second hook using the turnbuckle. During operation of the turnbuckle, the wire tightens against the storage container, and the storage container is affixed to the interior of the non-regulated temperature container.

A subsea storage unit includes a pressure hull having a cargo hold configured for storing cargo. The pressure hull has a movable hatch, providing access to the cargo hold; and a base configured for supporting the storage unit on a seabed. The unit also includes a suspension, whereby the storage unit can be lifted and lowered in a body of water, and a ballast. A seabed facility can be configured for receiving and accommodating at least one subsea storage unit.

A load securing assembly for securing cargo in a trailer includes a trailer that has an outer wall. A plurality of channels is provided, each of the channels is coupled to the outer wall of the trailer and each of the channels is positioned within the trailer. A plurality of locking units is provided and each of the locking units is slidably positioned in a respective one of the channels. Each of the locking units releasably engages the respective channel to retain each of the locking units at a selected point along the respective channel. Each of the locking units is positioned to abut the cargo in the trailer thereby inhibiting the cargo from moving in the trailer. Additionally, each of the locking units is positionable in a home position for storage.

A cargo securement system for securing cargo in a container includes a number of upper and lower braces. The upper braces abut a ceiling of the container and the lower braces abut a floor of the container. The lower braces have a module engagement rail sized to slide within a rail guide of a module to guide the module to stowed position within the container and prevent movement of the module along a horizontal and a vertical axis. Bracing rods provide a compressive force to the upper and lower braces to provide a pressure fit that secures the braces and corresponding modules in place.

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.
