The present invention relates to a block coupler for connecting block to block for septic tank and water treatment facility. The block coupler according to the present invention comprises a body having a flow path therein; an inflow part having an inflow hole formed on one side of the longitudinal ends of the body so as to communicate with the flow path; an outflow part having an outflow hole formed on the other side of the longitudinal ends of the body having the inflow part so as to communicate with the flow path; and a connecting part provided at the outer end of the body having the inflow part so as to prevent the body coupled to the block from being separated.

A freight carrier configured to be received in an aircraft cargo hold, a system of one or more such freight carriers and a receiving platform, and a platform, are each provided. The freight carrier includes a floor element having a resting surface configured to lie on a floor surface of a cargo hold of an aircraft. The freight carrier is configured such that its resting surface can be moved over a floor surface in a floor plane. The floor element has a base element having a base surface. The base surface is situated on the base element such that the base surface faces away from the resting surface. The resting surface is provided with an arrangement to allow the freight carrier to be slid over the floor surface. The floor element has a cavity which extends toward the base surface between the front portion and the rear portion.

A bracket system creates a cost-effective way to build large clear spans in shipping container structures. The system efficiently joins four shipping containers along the longitudinal corner edges, with the containers set adjacent one another, to create a compound beam made by combining or coupling both top rails of the two lower containers and bottom rails of the top containers. A single T-bracket mounts onto pre-installed angle brackets on the raised containers, and a fastener is set through the lower plate to the T-bar joining the lower containers. The bracket system may be iterative and used to combine multiple pairs, or single, containers on top of or beside the initial set.

A storage vessel includes a body, two or more internal chambers or sections which may hold fluids or debris, one or more bulkheads 108 within the body of the storage vessel to separate the sections, and a roll off attachment apparatus. The storage vessel also comprises a series of ports and hatches to provide access to the sections within the storage vessel. The storage vessel can be moved to and from excavation sites using the roll off attachment apparatus which allows the storage vessel to be attached to or lifted onto a truck.

A lashing device includes: a base seat having a bottom wall, and two pivot lugs which cooperate with the bottom wall to define a pivot slot thereamong, and each of which is formed with an pivot hole communicating with the pivot slot; a pivot pin extending through the pivot hole of each of the pivot lugs; and an eye plate received in the pivot slot, and having a middle portion that is formed with a pivot hole provided for the pivot pin to movably extends therethrough, and first and second wing portions which are connected to opposite ends of the middle portion, respectively, and each of which has an elongated hole having an arc section. The arc axes of the arc sections of the elongated holes are aligned with the center axis of the pivot hole.

An apparatus, a vehicle and a method for securing intermodal cargo containers is provided. Couplers include pins and bottom supports to engage apertures and bottom surfaces of corner fittings for intermodal cargo containers. The couplers may also include sidewall supports to engage forward facing side surfaces of the corner fittings. The pins, bottom supports, and sidewall supports hold an intermodal cargo container in place through a relatively large range of acceleration forces without damaging the corner fittings of the intermodal cargo containers. The couplers are selectively movable from a retracted position to an extended position to engage the corner fittings of the intermodal cargo containers.

Examples include a cargo container for carrying items in an aircraft. The cargo container includes a first sidewall including a first length and a second sidewall including a second length extending transversely from the first sidewall. The first length is greater than the second length. The cargo container further includes a base sidewall extending from the first sidewall and the second sidewall, where the base sidewall is configured to support the cargo container on a cargo support surface of the aircraft. The cargo container further includes a lid configured to couple to the first sidewall, the second sidewall, or the base sidewall to at least partially cover a cavity formed by the first sidewall, the second sidewall, and the base sidewall.

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.

There is disclosed a dry bulk hopper system that includes a generally frustoconical bottle and a base having a tapered wall that defines a cradle for holding the bottle. The bottle has locking tabs disposed at bottom end thereof that cooperate with engagement ledges to secure the bottle to the base when the bottle has been received into the base in a first orientation, but not in a second orientation. Extruded support columns are disposed inside an interior of the base to distribute loads created by material in the bottle when the system is raised by a forklift.

A mobile tower system includes a steel shipping container. A tower structure is moveable between a substantially horizontal travel position and a substantially vertical operational position. A connection member is fixed to a lower portion of the tower structure and moveably coupled to a channel disposed in a horizontal member removeably attached to a vertical frame attached to a back wall of the steel shipping container. When the tower structure is displaced from the substantially horizontal travel position to the substantially vertical operational position, the connection member and the tower structure are linearly displaced together along the channel toward the back wall and the tower structure is pivotably displaced about the connection member, such that the upper portion of the tower structure is displaced through an opening disposed in a roof of the steel shipping container proximate a back wall of the steel shipping container.
