[0002] As an irreplaceable means of transportation, containers not only need to meet the requirements of various transportation conditions, but also need to meet the transportation of goods in various fields. At present, there are more and more types of goods carried by containers. When transporting corrosive bulk goods (such as sulfur), it usually causes the following results:

[0003] 1. When flushing the box, the corrosive liquid will flow to the bottom corner pieces outside the box, causing corrosion to the corner pieces;

[0004] 2. When the boxes are stacked and it rains, the corrosive liquid in the upper box or on the box surface will flow to the bottom corner pieces of the lower box, causing corrosion to the corner pieces;

[0005] 3. During unloading, corrosive bulk cargo will remain on the bottom corner fittings, causing corrosion to the corner fittings.

[0006] Corner fittings are important components of containers. They are used for transportation, bolting, stacking, lifting, etc. If the corner fittings are corroded, there will be great safety hazards during the transportation and lifting of the containers.

[0007] In response to this situation, some boxes are currently using stainless steel corner fittings, but the cost of stainless steel corner fittings is relatively high, and the overall strength of the corner fittings is lower than that of ordinary cast corner fittings. The box strength using stainless steel corner fittings is significantly weaker, and its scope of use is relatively small.

[0008] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a container with an anti-corrosion structure for preventing corner pieces from corroding, so as to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0009] A series of simplified concepts are introduced in the Summary of the Invention, which will be further described in detail in the Detailed Description of the Invention.

[0033] In the following description, a large number of specific details are provided to provide a more thorough understanding of the present invention. However, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that the embodiments of the present invention can be implemented without one or more of these details. In other examples, in order to avoid confusion with the embodiments of the present invention, some technical features well known in the art are not described.

[0034] In order to fully understand the embodiments of the present invention, detailed structures will be presented in the following description. Obviously, the implementation of the embodiments of the present invention is not limited to the specific details familiar to those skilled in the art. The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, but in addition to these detailed descriptions, the present invention may also have other embodiments.

[0035] The present invention provides a container, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 For the sake of brevity, Figure 1 Only the door end of the container is shown in the diagram. Figure 2 The side view of the container is shown. The container 1 is generally a substantially rectangular box body, and includes a box body and corner fittings arranged on the box body. Specifically, the corner fittings include a bottom corner fitting 2 located at the bottom of the box body and a top corner fitting 5 located at the top of the box body. Generally, the container 1 includes four bottom corner fittings 2 and four top corner fittings 5.

[0036] like Figure 3 and 4 As shown, when the bottom corner piece 2 is installed to the container 1, a part of the bottom corner piece 2 is exposed relative to the container 1, that is, the bottom corner piece 2 has an exposed part 21 when the bottom corner piece 2 is installed to the container 1.

[0037] In addition, if Figure 3 As shown, the container 1 further includes an anti-corrosion member 3, which covers at least one of the outer surfaces of the exposed portion 21 of the bottom corner fitting 2 to prevent the corrosive bulk cargo in the container from flowing to the exposed portion of the bottom corner fitting and causing corrosion thereto. Wherein, the anti-corrosion member 3 may cover the entire outer surface of the exposed portion 21 of the bottom corner fitting 2 or may cover a portion of the outer surface thereof as required. Preferably, Figure 3 In the illustrated embodiment, the anti-corrosion member 3 covers the upper surface 211 of the exposed portion 21 of the bottom corner member 2.

[0038] For example Figure 1 As shown, the container 1 includes a door end 4, which is arranged at the end of the container 1, and a discharge door is arranged on the door end 4. In actual operation, the cargo to be transported is placed in the container 1 or unloaded from the container 1 by opening and closing the discharge door. In order to prevent the corrosive bulk cargo in the container from flowing out from the discharge door with the cleaning agent when the inside of the container 1 is cleaned, preferably, the anti-corrosion part 3 is arranged on the bottom corner piece 2 near the door end 4 of the container 1. In this way, it is possible to prevent the corrosive bulk cargo from remaining on the bottom corner piece during loading and unloading and causing corrosion to the bottom corner piece, and it is possible to prevent the corrosive bulk cargo flowing out from the bottom corner piece 2 near the door end 4 during cleaning of the container, causing corrosion to the bottom corner piece. This preferred embodiment can make the container stronger and more durable. It can be understood that those skilled in the art can also arrange anti-corrosion parts on other bottom corner pieces except the bottom corner piece near the door end 4 as needed to achieve a better anti-corrosion effect. Although in the illustrated embodiment, the door end is disposed at the end of the container, it is understandable that those skilled in the art may also dispose the door end at the side of the container as required.

[0039] Preferably, the top corner fittings 5 ​​of the container are also provided with anti-corrosion parts. Specifically, when the top corner fittings 5 ​​are installed to the container 1, a part of the top corner fittings 5 ​​is exposed relative to the container 1, that is, the top corner fittings 5 ​​have an exposed part when the top corner fittings 5 ​​are installed to the container 1. Similar to the anti-corrosion parts on the bottom corner fittings, the anti-corrosion parts 3 cover the outer surface of the exposed part of the top corner fittings 5. Among them, the anti-corrosion parts 3 can cover the entire outer surface of the exposed part of the top corner fittings 5, and can also cover a part of its outer surface. Therefore, when multiple containers are stacked, when corrosive bulk cargo in the box or on the surface of the box of the upper container flows to the top corner fittings 5 ​​of the lower container, corrosion of the top corner fittings 5 ​​can be prevented.

[0040] Specifically, in a preferred embodiment, the anti-corrosion member 3 is a stainless steel plate, which can be connected to the bottom corner member 2 and / or the top corner member 5 by welding, riveting or bonding. In another preferred embodiment, the anti-corrosion member 3 can also be a PVC plate or a fiberglass plate, and can be connected to the bottom corner member 2 and / or the top corner member 5 by riveting or bonding. In this way, the corrosion of the corner member can be effectively prevented, and the strength of the corner member can be increased.

[0041] In other preferred embodiments, the anti-corrosion member 3 may also be a paint with an anti-corrosion function. Further preferably, the anti-corrosion paint may be a glass flake paint or a polyurea paint. In actual operation, the anti-corrosion paint may be directly applied to the top corner member 5 or the bottom corner member 2, thereby preventing the corrosive bulk cargo from flowing to the bottom corner member 2 and / or the top corner member 5 and causing corrosion thereto. At the same time, applying the anti-corrosion paint may simplify the anti-corrosion structure.

[0042] It should be understood that the above-mentioned embodiment provides a preferred embodiment of an anti-corrosion member for anti-corrosion of corner members of a container. In fact, the anti-corrosion member may also be made of other materials with anti-corrosion function.

[0043] Further, if Figure 3 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, the anti-corrosion member 3 is a flat plate structure 31, and mainly covers the upper surface 211 of the exposed portion 21 of the bottom corner member 2. Specifically, the main body of the anti-corrosion member 3 is a flat plate parallel to the upper surface 211 of the bottom corner member 2, so as to receive the corrosive bulk cargo flowing toward the bottom corner member 2 and isolate it from the bottom corner member 2, thereby preventing the bottom corner member 2 from being corroded. Furthermore, the flat plate structure 31 extends toward the side surface of the exposed portion 21 of the bottom corner member 2, so as to prevent the side surface of the bottom corner member 2 from being corroded when the corrosive bulk cargo flows toward the side surface of the exposed portion 21 of the bottom corner member 2 to a certain extent.

[0044] Next, if Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the anti-corrosion material according to the second embodiment of the present invention will be described.

[0045] The anti-corrosion member 3 is an inclined plate structure 32, and mainly covers the upper surface of the exposed portion 21 of the bottom corner member 2. Specifically, the inclined plate structure 32 is inclined downward in a direction away from the container, thereby guiding the corrosive bulk cargo flowing toward the bottom corner member 2 to flow downward along the inclined upper surface of the anti-corrosion member 3, thereby preventing the bottom corner member 2 from being corroded. Furthermore, the inclined plate structure 32 extends to the side of the exposed portion 21 of the bottom corner member 2, thereby preventing the side of the bottom corner member 2 from being corroded when the corrosive bulk cargo flows toward the side of the bottom corner member 2 to a certain extent.

[0046] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the anti-corrosion member according to the third embodiment of the present invention will be described below.

[0047] The anti-corrosion member 3 is a V-shaped plate structure 33, and mainly covers the upper surface of the exposed portion 21 of the bottom corner member 2. Specifically, Figure 8 As shown, a V-shaped groove is provided on the V-shaped plate structure 33, so that the corrosive bulk cargo flowing toward the bottom corner fitting flows along the inner side wall of the V-shaped groove and is retained at the bottom of the groove. Further preferably, a downwardly inclined outflow structure 331 is provided at one end of the V-shaped plate structure 33. Specifically, the outflow structure 331 extends outward and downward along the V-shaped plate structure 33 relative to the bottom corner fitting 2, so that the corrosive bulk cargo accumulated in the groove of the V-shaped plate can be guided to flow out along the outflow structure 331 of the V-shaped plate structure 33, thereby preventing the bottom corner fitting 2 from being corroded.

[0048] In another preferred embodiment, the V-shaped plate structure 33 can be installed obliquely on the upper surface 211 of the exposed portion 21 of the bottom corner piece 2, so that the corrosive bulk cargo accumulated in the groove of the V-shaped plate can flow out along the inclined V-shaped plate structure 33, thereby preventing the bottom corner piece 2 from being corroded.

[0049] According to the container of the present invention, by arranging anti-corrosion parts on the corner fittings, it is possible to prevent the corner fittings from being corroded when corrosive liquids flow toward the corner fittings, thereby effectively improving the corrosion resistance of the corner fittings of the container, thereby making the container stronger, more durable, and safer.
