Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of container technology, and more specifically, to a multifunctional container for the transfer of new energy equipment. Background Technology
[0002] With the accelerated global energy transition, the demand for transporting large equipment such as wind power equipment, photovoltaic modules, energy storage battery cabinets, and new energy vehicles has surged. These devices are generally characterized by their large size, heavy weight, and complex structure. Traditional transportation methods face two core challenges:
[0003] Poor size compatibility: Fixed-size containers are difficult to integrate with equipment of different specifications. For example, the battery boxes of small passenger cars and large commercial vehicles differ significantly in size, requiring the use of dedicated containers or customized packaging, leading to logistical disruptions and increased costs.
[0004] Low loading and unloading efficiency and high risk: Relying on hoisting equipment or manual handling, equipment is easily damaged by collisions due to shaking (such as deformation of lithium battery casings causing safety hazards), and loading and unloading time accounts for more than 30% of the total logistics time. In addition, most existing containers are equipped with opening and closing doors at the rear for moving equipment into the container. Due to the small opening of the container, the actual operation is cumbersome and inconvenient, which is not conducive to loading and unloading equipment.
[0005] In view of this, the present invention proposes a multifunctional container for the transfer of new energy equipment. Summary of the Invention
[0006] This invention proposes a multi-functional container for the transfer of new energy equipment, which solves the problems of poor size adaptability, low loading and unloading efficiency and high risk of existing containers in related technologies.
[0007] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows: A multifunctional container for transporting new energy equipment includes a container body, reinforcing ribs fixed to the outer wall of the container body, and a door rotatably connected to the end of the container body. The container body includes: a first container body, a second container body, and an adjustment frame disposed between the first container body. The adjustment frame is slidably disposed inside the first and second container bodies. The first and second container bodies are detachably fixed to the adjustment frame by bolts.
[0008] The bottom of the inner side of the first box, the second box, and the adjustment frame are all equipped with a base support mechanism for placing new energy equipment.
[0009] A drive assembly is provided between the bottoms of container one and container two, which enables the bottom support mechanism to be positioned inside and outside the container.
[0010] Preferably, the base support mechanism includes a base plate one disposed on the inner side of the bottom of the first box and a base plate two disposed on the inner side of the bottom of the second box, and an adjustment plate is provided between the base plate two and the base plate one.
[0011] Preferably, both the second base plate and the first base plate have an insertion cavity on their inner sides, and the two ends of the adjusting plate slide to the inner sides of the two insertion cavities respectively. The first base plate and the second base plate are detachably fixed to the adjusting plate by bolts, and a moving wheel is provided on one bottom end of the second base plate.
[0012] Preferably, a plurality of limiting rods are fixedly connected to one bottom end of the base plate, and the limiting rod located in the middle position has a threaded groove through it.
[0013] Preferably, the adjusting plate has multiple rod cavities extending through it, which connect the two insertion cavities.
[0014] Preferably, a plurality of positioning rods are equidistantly distributed on the inner sides of both insertion cavities. One end of each positioning rod is fixed to the inner wall of the insertion cavity, and the other end of the positioning rod slides into the rod cavity. The positioning rods on the inner sides of the two insertion cavities are staggered in the width direction of the container body. A return spring is sleeved on the outer side of each positioning rod, and one end of the return spring is fixed to the end of the adjusting plate.
[0015] Preferably, both the first and second housings have tracks at their bottoms, the tracks are slidably connected to the limiting rod, and the inner sides of the first and second housings have movable cavities for inserting the adjusting frame.
[0016] Preferably, the top of the adjustment frame is uniformly provided with shaft cavities, and several positioning shafts are fixedly connected to the inner side of the top of both the first and second housings. The positioning shafts slide to the inner side of the shaft cavity, and a connecting spring is sleeved on the outer side of the positioning shaft. One end of the connecting spring is fixedly connected to one end of the adjustment frame.
[0017] Preferably, the drive assembly includes a rotary joint rotatably sleeved on an outer wall of the housing, one end of the rotary joint being fixedly connected to a first lead screw, the first lead screw being threadedly connected to the inner side of a threaded groove opened inside the limiting rod.
[0018] Preferably, the drive assembly further includes a second lead screw rotatably connected to the bottom of the housing, the second lead screw having a cross cavity on its inner side, and a cross shaft fixed to one end of the first lead screw, the cross shaft slidingly extending to the inner side of the cross cavity.
[0019] The working principle and beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:
[0020] 1. This invention can flexibly adapt to new energy equipment of different sizes, improving loading efficiency: A sliding adjustable frame connects container one and container two, which are fixed with bolts; the adjusting plate in the base support mechanism can extend and retract along the insertion cavity, cooperating with the drive assembly to control the extension and retraction displacement of the base support mechanism. The container length can be dynamically adjusted according to the equipment size or transport vehicle type: when container one and container two are close together, they are suitable for small equipment; when separated, the adjustable frame expands the space to meet the needs of large equipment. The base support mechanism extends and retracts synchronously, ensuring that the equipment bearing surface always matches the internal dimensions of the container, significantly improving loading flexibility and space utilization. For example, new energy vehicles, large battery modules, and other equipment can be efficiently adapted, reducing transfer interruptions caused by size mismatches and improving logistics efficiency.
[0021] 2. This invention optimizes the loading and unloading process, reducing manual labor intensity and collision risks: The drive component, through a rotary joint, links the first and second lead screws, pushing the limit rod to slide along the track, causing the entire base support mechanism to move out of the container; movable wheels assist in the equipment's movement. The base support mechanism can fully extend out of the container, forming an external support platform, allowing the equipment to be directly pushed into the platform and then retracted into the container. This design avoids the collision risks of traditional hoisting or manual handling, and is particularly suitable for precision new energy equipment. With the simplified operation process, loading and unloading time is shortened, manual labor intensity is reduced, and safety is significantly improved. Attached Figure Description

[0042] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0043] Example 1
[0044] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 A multi-functional container for transporting new energy equipment includes a container body, reinforcing ribs 9 fixed to the outer wall of the container body, and a door 4 rotatably connected to the end of the container body. The container body includes a first container 1, a second container 2, and an adjustment frame 3 disposed between the first container 1. The adjustment frame 3 can be slidably disposed inside the first container 1 and the second container 2. The first container 1 and the second container 2 are detachably fixed to the adjustment frame 3 by bolts.
[0045] Furthermore, both box 1 and box 2 have a track 11 at the bottom and an active cavity 12 for inserting the adjustment frame 3 on the inner side of box 1 and box 2.
[0046] Furthermore, the top of the adjustment frame 3 is uniformly provided with shaft cavities 31, and several positioning shafts 8 are fixedly connected to the inner side of the top of both the first box 1 and the second box 2. The positioning shafts 8 slide to the inner side of the shaft cavity 31, and a connecting spring 7 is sleeved on the outer side of the positioning shaft 8. One end of the connecting spring 7 is fixedly connected to one end of the adjustment frame 3.
[0047] In this embodiment, when loading the new energy equipment to be transported into containers in advance, the container size is adjusted according to the required equipment size or the type of vehicle used for transport. Specifically, when the required equipment size is small or the vehicle used for transport is a small vehicle, container body 1 and container body 2 can be brought closer together to cover the adjustment frame 3. Conversely, when the required equipment size is large or the vehicle used for transport is a large vehicle, container body 1 and container body 2 can be moved further apart to extend the adjustment frame 3, thereby providing a larger loading space.
[0048] In this embodiment, when adjusting the distance between housing 1 and housing 2, the adjusting frame 3 slides in the movable cavity 12 opened inside housing 1 and housing 2, so that the positioning shaft 8 slides inside the shaft cavity 31, thereby compressing or extending the connecting spring 7 accordingly.
[0049] Example 2
[0050] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 A multi-functional container for transporting new energy equipment is provided, comprising all the contents of Embodiment 1. Furthermore, a base support mechanism 5 for placing the new energy equipment is provided on the inner bottom of container body 1, container body 2, and adjusting frame 3. A drive assembly 6 is provided between the bottoms of container body 1 and container body 2, allowing for position adjustment of the base support mechanism 5 within and outside the container.
[0051] Specifically, the base support mechanism 5 includes a base plate 51 located on the inner side of the bottom of housing 1 and a base plate 52 located on the inner side of the bottom of housing 2. An adjusting plate 53 is provided between the base plate 52 and the base plate 51. Both the base plate 52 and the base plate 51 have an insertion cavity 54 on their inner sides. The two ends of the adjusting plate 53 slide to the inner sides of the two insertion cavities 54 respectively. The base plate 51 and the base plate 52 are detachably fixed to the adjusting plate 53 by bolts. A movable wheel 55 is provided on one bottom end of the base plate 52.
[0052] Furthermore, several limiting rods 56 are fixedly connected to the bottom end of the base plate 51, and the track 11 is slidably connected to the limiting rods 56. The limiting rod 56 located in the middle position has a threaded groove 57 through it. The adjusting plate 53 has multiple rod cavities 531 through it, which connect the two insertion cavities 54.
[0053] Furthermore, several positioning rods 59 are evenly distributed on the inner sides of both insertion cavities 54. One end of the positioning rod 59 is fixed to the inner wall of the insertion cavity 54, and the other end of the positioning rod 59 slides into the rod cavity 531. The positioning rods 59 on the inner sides of the two insertion cavities 54 are staggered in the width direction of the container body. A return spring 58 is sleeved on the outer side of each positioning rod 59. One end of the return spring 58 is fixed to the end of the adjustment plate 53.
[0054] Specifically, the drive assembly 6 includes a rotary joint 61 rotatably sleeved on the outer wall of the housing 1. One end of the rotary joint 61 is fixedly connected to a first lead screw 62, which is threadedly connected to the inner side of the threaded groove 57 opened inside the limiting rod 56.
[0055] Furthermore, the drive assembly 6 also includes a second lead screw 64 rotatably connected to the bottom of the housing 2. A cross cavity 65 is provided on the inner side of the second lead screw 64. A cross shaft 63 is fixedly connected to one end of the first lead screw 62. The cross shaft 63 slides to the inner side of the cross cavity 65.
[0056] In this embodiment, when adjusting the distance between housing 1 and housing 2, the adjusting frame 3 slides within the movable cavity 12 inside housing 1 and housing 2. The base support mechanism 5 can adjust accordingly to the change in distance between housing 1 and housing 2. The adjusting plate 53 can slide within the insertion cavity 54 inside the base plate 51 and base plate 52, allowing the positioning rod 59 to slide within the rod cavity 531, thus compressing or extending the return spring 58 accordingly. Furthermore, the cross shaft 63 can also slide accordingly within the cross cavity 65. When adjusted to a suitable loading space, housing 1 and adjusting frame 3, housing 2 and adjusting frame 3, base plate 2 and adjusting plate 53, and base plate 51 and adjusting plate 53 are detachably fixed with bolts.
[0057] In this embodiment, an external drive device rotates the rotary joint 61, which in turn rotates the first lead screw 62. The first lead screw 62, in conjunction with the cross shaft 63 and the cross cavity 65, rotates the second lead screw 64. During the rotation of the first lead screw 62, the limiting rod 56, located at the middle position, can move along the outer wall of the first lead screw 62, thereby moving the base plate 51. As the base plate 51 moves outward, before the threaded groove 57 completely disengages from the first lead screw 62, one end of the threaded groove 57 is pre-threadedly connected to the second lead screw 64, allowing the base plate 51 to continue moving outward. This allows the base plate 52 to move stably outward via the moving wheels 55 until the base plate 51 reaches its original position. When the bottom support mechanism 5 is partially moved out of the container, it facilitates the loading of the new energy equipment to be transported onto the bottom support mechanism 5.
[0058] Working principle and usage process: When loading new energy equipment to be transported into containers, the container size is adjusted according to the required equipment size or the type of vehicle used for transport. Specifically, when the required equipment size is small or the vehicle used for transport is a small vehicle, container body 1 and container body 2 can be brought closer together to cover the adjustment frame 3. Conversely, when the required equipment size is large or the vehicle used for transport is a large vehicle, container body 1 and container body 2 can be spaced further apart to extend the adjustment frame 3, thus providing more loading space.
[0059] When adjusting the distance between housing 1 and housing 2, the adjusting frame 3 slides within the movable cavity 12 inside housing 1 and housing 2, causing the positioning shaft 8 to slide within the shaft cavity 31, thus compressing or extending the connecting spring 7 accordingly. Simultaneously, the base support mechanism 5 adjusts accordingly to changes in the distance between housing 1 and housing 2, and the adjusting plate 53 slides within the insertion cavity 54 inside the base plate 51 and base plate 52, causing the positioning rod 59 to slide within the rod cavity 531, thus compressing or extending the return spring 58 accordingly. Furthermore, the cross shaft 63 also slides accordingly within the cross cavity 65. When adjusted to a suitable loading space, housing 1 and adjusting frame 3, housing 2 and adjusting frame 3, base plate 2 and adjusting plate 53, and base plate 51 and adjusting plate 53 are detachably fixed using bolts.
[0060] When loading new energy equipment into the container, regardless of the size of the loading space formed between container 1, container 2, and the adjusting frame 3, the bottom support mechanism 5 can extend outward from the inside of the container, facilitating the mounting of the new energy equipment on the bottom support mechanism 5. An external drive device rotates the rotary joint 61, which in turn rotates the first lead screw 62. The first lead screw 62, in conjunction with the cross shaft 63 and the cross cavity 65, can rotate the second lead screw 64. During the rotation of the first lead screw 62, the limiting rod 56 located in the middle position can move along the outer wall of the first lead screw 62, thereby driving the bottom plate 51 to move. During the outward movement of the bottom plate 51, before the threaded groove 57 completely disengages from the first lead screw 62, one end of the threaded groove 57 is pre-threadedly connected to the second lead screw 64, allowing the bottom plate 51 to continue moving outward. This enables the bottom plate 52 to move stably outward via the moving wheels 55 until the bottom plate 51 reaches the original position of the bottom plate 52. When the bottom support mechanism 5 is partially removed from the inside of the container, it facilitates the loading of new energy equipment onto the bottom support mechanism 5, significantly reducing the workload of personnel, simplifying operation, and reducing the risk of collisions during loading. It ensures that the equipment bearing surface always matches the internal dimensions of the container, significantly improving loading flexibility and space utilization. For example, new energy vehicles, large battery modules, and other equipment can be efficiently adapted, reducing transshipment interruptions caused by size mismatches and improving logistics efficiency.

The content protected by this invention does not involve improvements to the software and methods.
