Description

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0013] This disclosure is further described in the detailed description that follows, with reference to the drawings, in which:

[0014] FIG. 1 illustrates, in simplified form, a schematic view of the structure of a fast unloading folding cargo container as described herein; and

[0015] FIG. 2 illustrates, in simplified form, schematic view of the structure of the unloading rack for the fast unloading folding cargo container of FIG. 1.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0016] Specific examples of our fast unloading folding cargo container will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be apparent that the described examples are only representative of a few, not all, of the embodiments that can be created based upon this disclosure. All other embodiments that can be created by those skilled in the art based on the examples herein are intended to be encompassed by the present disclosure.

[0017] Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the fast unloading folding cargo container comprises a left frame 1, a right frame 2, a rear frame 3, a bottom frame 4, and connection members 5. The left frame 1 and the right frame 2 are rotatably connected to the rear frame 3 via the connection members 5. The connection members 5 may be one or more hinges, shafts or other connection devices.

[0018] Two ends of the bottom frame 4 are formed with locking slots 41. The locking slots 41 lock onto the rails on the bottoms of the left frame 1 and the right frame 2. Two sides of the bottoms of the left frame 1 and the right frame 2 are all formed with recessed support grooves 6. The left frame 1 and the right frame 2 include at least one suspension member 7 on the top for lifting. The suspension member may be a suspension ring or a hook, or may be other structures.

[0019] Preferably, the cargo container further comprises a front rung 8. As shown, one end of the front rung 8 is rotatably connected to the left frame 1. The right frame 2 includes a locking member 81 for locking the front rung 8 to the right frame 2. The locking member 81 may be a hook, a latch or the like. The provision of the front rung 8 blocks the goods to prevent the goods from falling out. One, two, three or more front rungs 8 may be provided as needed to secure the goods the cargo container will contain. In addition, any one or all of the front rungs 8 can alternatively be rotatably connected to the right frame 2, in which case the corresponding part of the left frame 1 would include the locking member 81.

[0020] Ideally, the left frame 1, the right frame 2 and the rear frame 3 are all rectangular and respectively each comprise and outer frame 11, 21, 31 and a number of frame support rails 12, 22, 32 located inside the respective rectangular outer frames 11, 21, 31. The bottom frame 4 comprises bottom bars 42 and a number of base support rails 43 located on the bottom bars 42 at spaced intervals.

[0021] The cargo container further comprises an unloading rack 9. The unloading rack comprises base bars 91 and a number of loading rails 92 disposed on the base bars 91, and loading rails 92 spaced apart so as to correspond to the space between the base support rails 43.

[0022] Ideally, a cushion layer 93 on the top of the loading rails 92 acts as a buffer for loaded cargo.

[0023] As shown, the two sides of the bottoms of the left frame 1 and the right frame 2 are all formed with recessed support grooves 6. The support grooves 6 enable transport of the cargo container by means of a forklift, a dolly and the like, yielding strong universal applicability. In addition, as shown, the left frame 1 and the right frame 2 are both provided with a suspension ring 7 on the top, which enables the transport of the cargo container by means of a crane, also yielding strong universal applicability. During unloading, the cargo container is placed on the unloading rack 9 so that the unloading rack 9 supports goods. Then, the left frame 1 and the right frame 2 can be rotated around behind the rear frame 3 to open the cargo container up, which facilitates the unloading. Likewise, when not in use, the left frame 1, the right frame 2 and the rear frame 3 can be folded together to greatly reduce the space occupied by the cargo container and to facilitate the recovery of the cargo container.

[0024] Having described and illustrated the principles of this application by reference to one or more example embodiments, it should be apparent that the embodiment(s) may be modified in arrangement and detail without departing from the principles disclosed herein and that it is intended that the application be construed as including all such modifications and variations insofar as they come within the spirit and scope of the subject matter disclosed.
