CORNER FITTINGS FOR MODULAR CONTAINERS
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.
LOAD-SECUREMENT DEVICES AND PROCESSES
Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide load-securement devices and processes for securing loads in a shipping container. Generally, each load-securement device includes a base and two wings each having a corner-engaging end. The wings are attached to the base and are movable relative to one another and to the base from a compact configuration in which a first distance separates the corner-engaging ends to a securement configuration in which a second greater distance separates the corner-engaging ends. Since the load-securement device is more compact when the wings are in the compact configuration (as compared to the securement configuration), it is easier to attach to a shipping container—and particularly to a front corner post of the shipping container—as compared to a similar load-securement device that has immovable wings fixed in the securement configuration.
MODULAR CARGO CONTAINERS WITH SURFACE CONNECTORS
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for a modular container, including: six sides, wherein: each side of the six sides of the modular container comprises at least four surface connector arrangements, each surface connector arrangement of the at least four surface connector arrangements comprises at least two connector elements, wherein: 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.
TELESCOPING CONTAINER SYSTEM
A telescoping container system with a first container and a second container that is configured to slide into and out of the second container. The invention includes first, second and third elongated gaskets that are configured to create various seals between the first and second containers and a wiper seal that creates a further seal between the top front rail of the first container and the top panel of the second container. The invention includes two non-pivoting guide wheels situated at the top of the rear end of the second container and two pivoting guide wheel assemblies situated on wings that extend inwardly front the front corner posts of the first container. The pivoting guide wheel assembly allows the invention to seal in each direction by pivoting backward and forward.
MODULAR CARGO CONTAINERS WITH SURFACE CONNECTORS
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.
Mobile equipment storage and charging station
A shippable, balanced, self-contained, solar-powered, battery-charging, restricted-access, parkable, equipment station.
Method and Apparatus for Collapsible Container
A hollow container or box formed from a roof, a first side (i.e., or first upper and lower sides), a second side (i.e., for second upper and lower sides), a rear side (i.e., or rear upper and lower sides), a door (i.e., or upper and lower door), and a base placing the container or box in a fully assembled position. Unique side and end access doors are provided. Each of the sides are releaseably coupled or hingedly connected to one another and the adjacent sides are hingedly coupled to the base. Upon releasing the sides from one another and rotating each relative to one another in a particular order along various axis rotation, the container or box is transitioned from a fully assembled position into a flat, parallel orientation, fully collapsed position
CONTAINER ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM
A container energy storage system is provided in this disclosure. The system includes a container and a plurality of functional assemblies. The container includes a container frame and a bottom plate. The container frame is formed a plurality of openings and a hollow main body. The bottom plate is disposed at the bottom of the container frame and is fixedly connected to the container frame. The functional assemblies are disposed in the hollow main body and located above the bottom plate.
Functional training rig kit
A functional training rig kit includes a box and a plurality of components adapted to fit within the box. At least some of the components and the box include elements by which the components are adapted to be attached to the outside of the box to provide at least one functional training rig attached to the outside of the box.
Convertible shipping container
A convertible container includes a top panel, a first longitudinal wall panel, a second longitudinal wall panel, and a bottom panel. The first longitudinal wall panel has a first longitudinal edge. The first longitudinal edge is connected to the top panel via a hinge. The second longitudinal wall panel has a second longitudinal edge. The second longitudinal edge is connected to the top panel at a fixed 90-degree angle. The bottom panel has an openable edge. The bottom panel is permanently coupled to the first longitudinal wall panel and removably coupled to the second longitudinal wall panel at the openable edge. The top panel is moveable between a first configuration and a second configuration. A method of assembling a functional structure includes providing the convertible container and lifting and rotating the second longitudinal wall panel away from the bottom panel about the hinge.
