Locking mechanism suitable for large container and large container

Abstract

The invention provides a locking mechanism suitable for a large container and the large container. The large container comprises two pairs of parallel lateral plates and a base, and the locking mechanism is used for connecting every two adjacent lateral plates. The locking mechanism comprises a handle, a latch and a drive rod. The handle is arranged in a cavity formed by every two adjacent lateral plates, the outer side of the upper portion of a lateral plate for arranging the handle is provided with hole for exposing the handle, two ends of the lateral plate are respectively provided with more than two lock holes separated for a certain distance and used for the latch to penetrate through. The drive rod is matched with the handle and the latch to enable the latch to be contracted into the lateral plate when the handle is wrenched, so that connection of two lateral plates is released, and the latch can be reset when the handle is loosened. The locking mechanism overcomes the defect of structural strength of a traditional single latch, improves the overall strength of the container and is simple in operation.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a large container, in particular to a collapsible large container. Background technique [0002] Collapsible large containers generally refer to containers with a capacity of more than 800L. It usually includes foldable and detachable side panels and a base connected to the side panels. This connection is mostly in the form of hinges. Optionally there is a small door in the side panel, which is used to gain access to the deep interior of the container without opening or dismantling the entire side panel. Such containers are well known, especially for transporting and storing various objects ( large containers such as whole objects and bulk materials). The side panels of this empty collapsible container can be folded, so that the height of the container is greatly reduced, and the occupied space is also reduced, which is convenient for reloading. One or more side panels or damaged side panels can be removed and replaced...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0005] In the existing locking mechanisms, most of them have only one latch and are located at the upper and lower sides of the side plate. The hinges below the side plate are generally a certain size away from the two ends of the side plate. The side plate is equivalent to the structure of the cantilever when it is subjected to the force from the outside, which will make the container easy to damage

Similarly, when the container is subjected to a force in a diagonal direction, such as a corner drop test, etc., this place will also become a weak point of structural strength
