Problems solved by technology

Therefore, with this structure, an extremely strong container fastening force can be exerted, but conversely, since the cone cannot be removed from the corner casting or the socket without manually rotating the cone, the unloading work of the container is troublesome.

[0095] respectively expressed as: figure 1 is a front view of the connector for the container according to the first embodiment of the present invention, figure 2 is a top view, image 3 is the right side view, Figure 4 is the left view, Figure 5 is a plan view. And, respectively expressed as: Figure 6 to Figure 8 is an explanatory diagram of the rotation position of the upper and lower cones, Figure 9 to Figure 12 It is an explanatory diagram of the operating state of the connector. According to its function and structure, this connecting piece is called container fastening twist lock (twist lock). In addition, the description in the "Example" column below also describes the case of loading and unloading a plurality of containers. Therefore, in the case of securing the container to the deck, in the following descriptions, replace "upper container" with "container", and "the lower corner casting of the upper container" with "the lower corner casting of the containe...

Abstract

A container connector having cones at upper and lower parts of a shaft of the connector. The lower cone can be detached from an upper corner casting of a lower container or a socket on a deck board without manually rotating the lower cone. The construction enhances workability of load discharging and provides sufficient fastening force required in different situations. To achieve the above, the lower cone has a rotation engagement structure and a non-rotatable second engagement structure. The rotation engagement structure allows the lower cone to engage with an inner edge of an engagement hole when the lower cone is in inserted into the upper corner casting or the socket and rotated from a disengagement position to an engagement position. The second engagement structure allows a projection-like engagement section, which is arranged on a side face of the lower cone, to engage with the inner edge of the engagement hole even if the lower cone is not rotated when it is inserted into the upper corner casting or the socket.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a connecting piece for a container related to container loading fastening technology. The connector of the present invention is used when loading and unloading a plurality of containers, or when fixing containers to the deck of a ship, and the like. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, as disclosed in the following patent document 1, etc., there is known a container connector having an upper cone and a lower cone, wherein the upper cone engages with a lower corner provided on the lower surface of an upper container. Casting (in case of loading multiple containers up and down) or lower corner casting (in case of fixing the container on the deck of the ship) installed on the bottom of the container, and the lower cone is engaged on the upper surface of the lower container The upper corner casting (in the case of loading multiple containers up and down) or the socket installed on the deck of the ship (in the case of fixi...
