Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention generally relates to the field of containers, and more particularly to a container. Background Art

[0002] Figures 1 to 3 It is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of the underframe 10 and the floor 20 of a container in the prior art assembled together.

[0003] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the container of the prior art includes a floor 20 and a bottom frame 10. The bottom frame 10 includes a bottom side beam 11, a bottom end beam 12, a first bottom cross beam 13 and a second bottom cross beam 15. The bottom side beam 11 and the bottom end beam 12 form a substantially rectangular bottom frame 10. The cross-sectional shape of the first bottom cross beam 13 is an inverted L-shape. Figure 3 As shown, the outer surface of the vertical side of the first bottom cross beam 13 is attached to the side of the bottom end beam 12 facing the first bottom cross beam 13, and the outer rounded corner 13a of the first bottom cross beam 13 and the bottom end 13b of the vertical side are welded to the bottom end beam 12. The second bottom cross beam 15 is arranged on the side of the first bottom cross beam 13 away from the bottom end beam 12. The first bottom cross beam 13 and the second bottom cross beam 15 are arranged below the floor 20 to support the floor 20. The floor 20 can be a wooden floor or an iron floor. The wooden floor is connected to the top surface of the first bottom cross beam 13 and the second bottom cross beam 15 by self-tapping screws. The iron floor is welded to the top surface of the first bottom cross beam 13 and the second bottom cross beam 15. On the bottom frame 10, the arc surface of the outer rounded corner 13a of the first bottom cross beam 13 and the side of the bottom end beam 12 facing the first bottom cross beam 13 form a groove with an opening facing upward. In this way, powdery objects, granular objects or water gather in the groove, and the groove is not easy to clean. In the prior art, intermittent welding is used between the first bottom cross beam 13 and the bottom end beam 12, that is, along the length direction of the first bottom cross beam 13, between the first bottom cross beam 13 and the bottom end beam 12, at the outer rounded corner 13a of the first bottom cross beam 13 and the bottom end 13b of the vertical side, after welding the first preset length, after welding the second preset length, then welding the first preset length, and so on, until the entire first bottom cross beam 13 is welded to the bottom end beam 12. In this way, there are multiple welding intervals set at intervals between the first bottom cross beam 13 and the bottom end beam 12. In order to prevent water from entering the welding interval between the first bottom cross beam 13 and the bottom end beam 12, thereby causing rust on the welding part of the first bottom cross beam 13 and the bottom end beam 12. In the prior art, sealant is added to the welding interval between the first bottom cross beam 13 and the bottom end beam 12.

[0004] In the prior art, since there is a groove between the first bottom cross beam 13 and the bottom end beam 12, when the container adopts a wooden floor, it is necessary to first drill holes on the wooden floor for installing self-tapping screws. In this way, wood chips generated during drilling will fall into the groove and are not easy to clean. When sealant is added to the welding gap between the first bottom cross beam 13 and the bottom end beam 12, the sealant will adhere to the wood chips in the groove, so that the sealing performance of the sealant is reduced; and water will accumulate in the groove. The accumulated water gradually reduces the anti-corrosion performance of the paint at the weld of the first bottom beam 13 and the bottom end beam 12, and gradually reduces the anti-corrosion performance of the sealant at the welding gap between the first bottom beam 13 and the bottom end beam 12, thereby rendering the anti-corrosion performance of the paint at the weld of the first bottom beam 13 and the bottom end beam 12 ineffective, and rendering the anti-corrosion performance of the sealant at the welding gap between the first bottom beam 13 and the bottom end beam 12 ineffective, thereby exposing the welding parts of the first bottom beam 13 and the bottom end beam 12 to the air or the accumulated water in the groove, causing the welding parts of the first bottom beam 13 and the bottom end beam 12 to rust, resulting in failure of the welding connection between the first bottom beam 13 and the bottom beam.

[0005] In the prior art, since welding is performed in the length direction of the first bottom cross beam 13 , the length of the weld between the first bottom cross beam 13 and the bottom end beam is relatively large, and the welding time is relatively long.

[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a container to at least partially solve the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0007] A series of simplified concepts are introduced in the summary of the invention, which will be further described in detail in the specific embodiments.

[0037] 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.

[0038] 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.

[0039] First embodiment

[0040] The present invention provides a container. The container is generally a roughly rectangular box body, comprising two spaced end surfaces, two spaced side surfaces, a top surface arranged at the top, and a bottom surface arranged at the bottom, and the two end surfaces, the two side surfaces, the top surface, and the bottom surface form a receiving cavity for receiving items to be transported. Figure 4 For the sake of brevity, Figure 4 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing only the assembly of the bottom frame 110 and the floor 120 of the container.

[0041] like Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the container includes a floor 120 of a flat structure. The floor 120 is used to carry items placed in the container's receiving cavity. The floor 120 can be a wooden floor or an iron floor. In this embodiment, the floor 120 can be a wooden floor.

[0042] The container of this embodiment also includes a chassis 110. The chassis 110 is used to support the floor 120. Specifically, the chassis 110 includes: two bottom side beams 111 parallel to each other and two bottom end beams 112 parallel to each other. The cross-sectional shape of the bottom side beam 111 is an I-shaped structure, and the cross-sectional shape of the bottom end beam 112 can be an I-shaped structure. Of course, the cross-sectional shape of the bottom side beam 111 and the cross-sectional shape of the bottom end beam 112 can also be other structures, and those skilled in the art can set them as needed. In this embodiment, the two bottom side beams 111 are respectively connected to the two ends of each bottom end beam 112, the end of each bottom side beam 111 is connected to the end of each bottom end beam 112, and the two bottom side beams 111 and the two bottom end beams 112 are connected end to end to form a roughly rectangular chassis 110.

[0043] like Figure 4As shown, in this embodiment, the chassis 110 further includes a first bottom cross beam 113. Both ends of the first bottom cross beam 113 are connected to the bottom side beam 111, and the first bottom cross beam 113 is arranged on the inner side of the bottom end beam 112, that is, the first bottom cross beam 113 is arranged between the two bottom end beams 112, and the first bottom cross beam 113 is adjacent to the inner side of the bottom end beam 112. A first gap A is provided between the first bottom cross beam 113 and the bottom end beam 112. Thus, there is no groove between the outer rounded corner of the first bottom cross beam 113 and the bottom end beam 112, and powdery objects, granular objects and liquids (such as rainwater) can fall out of the chassis 110 from the first gap A between the first bottom cross beam 113 and the bottom end beam 112, so that the powdery objects, granular objects and liquids are prevented from gathering in the groove and being inconvenient to clean, thereby improving the anti-corrosion performance of the first bottom cross beam 113 and the bottom end beam 112. Preferably, the chassis 110 includes two first bottom cross beams 113 spaced apart from each other, a first gap A is provided between one first bottom cross beam 113 and a bottom end beam 112, and a first gap A is provided between another first bottom cross beam 113 and another bottom end beam 112. Further preferably, the first bottom cross beam 113 is welded to the bottom side beam 111. Thus, the connection length of the first bottom cross beam 113 and the bottom side beam 111 is small, and the welding distance is short.

[0044] Preferably, the first gap A is in the range of 5 mm ≤ A ≤ 400 mm, thereby facilitating the processing of the base frame 110. Further preferably, A = 50 mm.

[0045] Preferably, if Figure 4 As shown, the cross-sectional shape of the first bottom beam 113 is C-shaped, Z-shaped, L-shaped or rectangular. Thus, the freedom of choice of the type of the first bottom beam 113 is increased. In this embodiment, the cross-sectional shape of the first bottom beam 113 is C-shaped, that is, the first bottom beam 113 is made of C-shaped channel steel.

[0046] In this embodiment, the base frame 110 further includes a second bottom cross beam 115 spaced apart from the first bottom cross beam 113. In this embodiment, the second bottom cross beam 115 is disposed on a side of the first bottom cross beam 113 away from the bottom end beam 112, and both ends of the second bottom cross beam 115 are connected to the bottom side beam 111. This strengthens the structural strength of the base frame 110. Preferably, the base frame 110 includes a plurality of second bottom cross beams 115 spaced apart, and the plurality of second bottom cross beams 115 are all disposed between two first bottom cross beams 113. Preferably, both ends of the second bottom cross beam 115 are welded to the bottom side beam 111.

[0047] In this embodiment, the cross-sectional shape of the second bottom cross beam 115 can be C-shaped, Z-shaped, L-shaped or rectangular. Thus, the freedom of choice of the type of the second bottom cross beam 115 is increased. In this embodiment, the cross-sectional shape of the second bottom cross beam 115 is C-shaped, that is, the second bottom cross beam 115 is made of C-shaped channel steel. In this embodiment, Figure 4 As shown, the opening of the C-shaped channel steel of the first bottom cross beam 113 faces the second bottom cross beam 115 .

[0048] In this embodiment, the floor 120 is far away from the bottom end beam 112 and the bottom side beam 111. The second bottom cross beam 115 and the first bottom cross beam 113 are used to support the floor 120. Specifically, Figure 4 As shown, the chassis also includes a plurality of self-tapping screws, and the floor 120 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the first bottom beam 113 and the top surface of the second bottom beam 115 by the self-tapping screws. In this way, the second bottom beam 115 and the floor 120 form a substantially T-shaped structure.

[0049] In this embodiment, the distance between the end surface of the floor 120 facing the bottom end beam 112 and the end surface of the bottom end beam 112 facing the first bottom cross beam 113 is less than the first gap A. That is, the end surface of the floor 120 facing the bottom end beam 112 extends out of the first bottom cross beam 113 to form a cantilever beam structure. Since the wooden floor itself has a certain strength, the cantilever part of the floor 120 can meet the strength requirements of the floor. Preferably, the range of the first gap A is 15mm≤A≤150mm.

[0050] Second embodiment

[0051] The following reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 The second preferred embodiment of the present invention is described. For the purpose of simplicity, the description of the same parts as the first embodiment is omitted when describing the second embodiment. The bottom side beam 211 is the same as the first preferred embodiment.

[0052] Figure 5 and Figure 6 is a schematic diagram of a second preferred embodiment of the present invention. Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the second embodiment has the following differences from the first embodiment:

[0053] In this embodiment, the floor 220 of the base frame 210 is made of iron material, and the floor 220 is welded to the top surface of the first bottom beam 213 and the top surface of the second bottom beam 215. The distance between the end surface of the floor 220 facing the bottom end beam 212 and the end surface of the bottom end beam 212 facing the first bottom beam 213 is greater than the first gap A. That is, the end of the floor 220 facing the bottom end beam 212 overlaps the top surface of the first bottom beam 213. Preferably, the range of the first gap A is 50 mm ≤ A ≤ 300 mm. Thus, drainage can be achieved through the first gap A between the first bottom beam 213 and the bottom end beam 212.

[0054] In an embodiment not shown, the distance between the end surface of the floor panel 220 facing the bottom end beam 212 and the end surface of the bottom end beam 212 facing the first bottom cross beam 213 is equal to the first gap A.

[0055] In this embodiment, the base frame 210 further includes a connecting member 214, which is disposed in the first gap A and respectively connects the first bottom cross beam 213 and the bottom end beam 212. Thus, the structural strength of the base frame 210 is further enhanced. At the same time, the connecting member 214 can be used to tie up items placed on the floor 220.

[0056] Since the surface of the iron floor is impermeable, in order to facilitate drainage, it is preferred that Figure 6 As shown, the container includes a plurality of connectors 214, and the plurality of connectors 214 are arranged at intervals along the width direction of the bottom frame 210. There is a second gap between adjacent connectors 214, so that water can be discharged through the second gap between adjacent connectors 214.

[0057] Preferably, the connector 214 can be a rectangular tube, a square tube, a round tube, a round steel or a flat steel, thereby increasing the degree of freedom in selecting the type of the connector 214. In this embodiment, the connector 214 is a flat steel structure.

[0058] In this embodiment, the cross-sectional shape of the second bottom cross beam 215 is L-shaped. In this embodiment, preferably, the first gap A=200 mm, so that it is convenient to install the connecting member 214 into the first gap A between the first bottom cross beam 213 and the bottom end beam 212 .

[0059] In an embodiment not shown, the distance between the end surface of the floor 220 facing the bottom end beam 212 and the end surface of the bottom end beam 212 facing the first bottom cross beam 213 is smaller than the first gap A. That is, the end surface of the floor 220 facing the bottom end beam 212 extends out of the first bottom cross beam 213 to form a cantilever beam structure. The range of the first gap A is 15 mm ≤ A ≤ 150 mm. Thus, drainage can be achieved through the first gap A between the first bottom cross beam 213 and the bottom end beam 212.

[0060] Third embodiment

[0061] The following reference Figure 7 The third preferred embodiment of the present invention is described. For the purpose of simplicity, the description of the same parts as the first embodiment is omitted when describing the third embodiment. The bottom side beam 311 is the same as the first preferred embodiment.

[0062] Figure 7 is a schematic diagram of a third preferred embodiment of the present invention. Figure 7 As shown, the third embodiment has the following differences from the first embodiment:

[0063] In this embodiment, the cross-sectional shape of the first bottom beam 313 of the base frame 310 is L-shaped, and the cross-sectional shape of the second bottom beam 315 is L-shaped. The floor 320 is an iron floor, and the floor 320 is welded to the top surface of the first bottom beam 313 and the top surface of the second bottom beam 315. The distance between the end surface of the floor 320 facing the bottom end beam 312 and the end surface of the bottom end beam 312 facing the first bottom beam 313 is less than the first gap A. One end of the floor 320 facing the bottom end beam 312 is bent downward to form a bent portion 321. Thus, the strength of the floor 320 is increased. In this embodiment, preferably, the first gap 50mm≤A≤300mm, thereby facilitating the installation of the floor 320 to the top surface of the first bottom beam 313 and the second bottom beam 315. In addition, water can be drained through the first gap A between the first bottom beam 313 and the bottom end beam 312. Further preferably, A=220mm.
