A collapsible nestable container is provided. The collapsible nestable container may comprise a plurality of panels, each having one or more locking features that interlock with the locking features of the other panels to form an assembled container. The panels further comprise one or more nesting features, that interlock with the nesting features of the other panels to allow the panels to nest in a collapsed configuration with similar or dissimilar panels.

A container for bulk handling including a body defined by an upper portion of rigid construction, a lower portion of rigid construction and a central portion of flexible construction extending between the upper portion and the lower portion. The lower portion includes an outlet for the discharge of product from the container, and the upper portion, the lower portion and the central portion define a chamber for bulk handling of product.

A material transport system and method having a frame with a plurality of upright frame members, upper lateral frame members, central lateral frame members, and lower lateral frame members. In one aspect, removable sidewalls can be affixed to the frame. In other aspects, the removable sidewalls have a density that is less than the density of the frame members. In other aspects, a modular container can be disposed in the frame. The frame can be constructed from a material having a lower density than the materials used for the frame.

The present invention is directed generally to a demountable silo (10) comprising a series of interconnected silo modules (12A to 12F) constructed in accordance with a preferred embodiment of this invention. The silo modules such as (12A) are each of a substantially identical configuration and interconnected in a side-by-side and end-to-end relationship. The demountable silo (10) is designed to contain particulate material and configured depending on the nature of the material and its storage requirements. It will be appreciated that the provision of multiple silo modules such as (12A to 12F) together contains significantly more particulate material in a heap than a single silo module. The maximum storage capacity for the demountable silo (10) is determined largely by the angle of repose of the heaped particulate material.

A shipping container includes: a bottom plate onto which cargo is to be placed, columns vertically extending from the bottom plate, and top plates detachably supported by the columns. Since the top plates are detachable from the columns, it is possible to smoothly load long objects into the shipping container from above the container, by removing the top plates in advance. When the loading is completed, the top plates are attached back to the columns again to reinforce the columns, thereby ensuring the strength of the shipping container as a whole. A plurality of these shipping containers can therefore be stacked one on another in a container ship, in the same manner as ordinary shipping containers.

Disclosed is a tank that retains a large amount of fluid in a safe manner. The tank can be easily and rapidly constructed and disassembled for subsequent use. A liner has lifting straps that are lifted by winch booms connected to booms. Exterior securing straps are used to hold the liner in place. Connecting plates are secured to trunnions on each of the panels. Pressure pins allow the connector plates to flex so that the panels can form a round or oval tank. The panels are constructed in a curved fashion to create the round or oval tank wall.

An assembly box for transportation is disclosed. The assembly box for transportation may comprise: a vertical corner frame arranged at a corner portion; first and second horizontal frames arranged perpendicularly, with the vertical corner frame interposed therebetween, so as to constitute upper and lower edge portions of a side wall; and corner brackets connecting the upper and lower ends of the vertical corner frames with ends of the first and second horizontal frames, respectively.
