Embodiment Construction

[0020] Now referring to the drawings one by one, the same reference numerals in each figure indicate the same parts. The corner piece constructed in accordance with the principles of the present invention shown in FIG. 4 is referenced 10. The corner piece 10 is basically composed of two parts: a substantially rectangular hollow block 12, and a bottom plate 14 that can be detachably connected to the above block.

[0021] In many respects, the block 12 is similar to a traditional corner piece, with a top 16 (which can be opened or closed), at least one side wall 18, at least one end wall 20 and a bottom wall 22. The corners of the block 12 and the container 24 are permanently fixed, as shown in Figs. 1, 2, and 3. The container is temporarily locked on the platform of a tractor, a rail transport vehicle, or a ship. As with conventional corner pieces known in the art, there are long holes 26 in the bottom wall 22 of the block 12, and round holes or long holes 28, 30 in the side wall 1...

Abstract

An adjustable height corner fitting (10) for a shipping container is comprised of a substantially hollow rectangularly shaped block (12) having a bottom wall (22), end walls (20) and side walls (18). An elongated aperture (26) is located in the bottom wall (22) and is adapted to cooperate with a locking mechanism in order to lock the shipping container to the platform of a vehicle. Also provided is a substantially rectangularly shaped plate (14) that is complementary to the bottom wall (22) and is adapted to be temporarily attached thereto in order to increase the height of the block. The plate (14) also has an elongated aperture (44) therein which is complementary to the aperture (26) in the bottom wall (22). When the plate (14) is attached, the apertures (44,26) in the plate (14) and in the bottom wall (22) are in alignment, but the plate (14) causes the corner fitting (10) to extend downwardly approximately a half an inch below the container for shipment on a truck, boat or rail car. With the plate (14) removed, the bottom of the corner fitting (10) is essentially flush with the bottom of the container thereby allowing the container to be transported by cargo plane.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention provides an improved corner piece, more specifically, an improved corner piece with adjustable height, which can be used for various purposes. Background technique [0002] In order to utilize various transportation methods, the container generally adopts a series of standard corner fittings to firmly fix the container to the supporting platform. Because the container is to be carried by truck, rail or ship, it must conform to the ISO standards promulgated by the International Organization for Standardization. The container is generally fixed with a quick locking mechanism, so that the four corner pieces under the container are fixed to the supporting platform. These four points are located at the corresponding ends of the bottom plane of the container. The corner piece is a piece that is usually fixed by welding and is embedded in each corner of the container, and its three sides are exposed on the surface of the container. [0003] O...
