[0022] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0023] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside" and the like indicate positions or positional relationships based on the positions or positional relationships shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific position, be constructed and operated in a specific position, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention. In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise specified, "multiple" means two or more.

[0024] Reference Figure 1-3 The utility model provides a bottom-turning side-opening container, comprising a box body 1; an open area is provided on the side of the box body 1 extending in the length direction; a box door 2 is connected to the open area; the bottom edge of the box door 2 is rotatably connected to the bottom edge of the open area; the area of ​​the box door 2 matches the area of ​​the open area to ensure the sealing of the container when the box door 2 is closed; and a box door support rod 5 is movably connected to the outer surface of the box door 2. When loading, the box door 2 is rotated to open the container from the side, and the goods are loaded into the box body 1 for transportation by a freight vehicle. When unloading, after the vehicle stops steadily at the loading and unloading line, the box door 2 can be directly flipped open without unloading, and the box door support rod 5 is supported between the outer surface of the box door 2 and the roadbed surface, so that the box door 2 forms a slope connecting the box body 1 and the roadbed surface, which serves as a transportation channel for packaged goods, making it easy to move the goods out. The support rod serves as a supporting structure for the bottom-turning box door 2 to ensure the reliability of the box door 2 when it is used as a transportation channel.

[0025] Furthermore, the flip-down side-opening container further comprises a plurality of partitions for partitioning the container; the plurality of partitions are arranged in the box body 1 at intervals along the length direction of the box body 1, and the container is divided into different areas according to the purpose. The partitions are preferably composite partitions with moisture-proof and heat-insulating properties. The container can simultaneously transport general dry goods, moisture-sensitive dry goods, and constant temperature dry goods, avoiding the impact between different goods and improving the utilization rate of the internal shipping space of the box body 1.

[0026] In order to prevent the container partition from being affected by the door 2 being always open during the loading or unloading process, a plurality of open areas are provided on the side of the container body 1 extending along the length direction; the plurality of open areas correspond to the container partitions one by one, and each open area is connected to a door 2, so that each partition of the container has its own independent door 2.

[0027] Optionally, the outer surface of the door 2 is provided with a support rod groove 4 for receiving the door support rod 5; one end of the door support rod 5 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the support rod groove 4. When the door 2 is in a closed state, the door support rod 5 is received in the support rod groove 4; after the door 2 is opened, one end of the door support rod 5 rotates around the connection point to leave the support rod groove 4, providing support force for the door 2.

[0028] Furthermore, the length direction of the support rod slot 4 is parallel to the height direction of the box body 1; the upper end of the door support rod 5 is hinged to the upper side wall of the support rod slot 4. When the door 2 is closed, the door support rod 5 is stored in the support rod slot 4, and when the door 2 is flipped down, the door support rod 5 rotates around the hinge point to disengage from the support rod slot 4, providing support force for the door 2.

[0029] In a detailed embodiment, open areas are provided on both sides of the box body 1 extending in the length direction, so that both sides can be operated simultaneously, and the loading and unloading efficiency is greatly improved.

[0030] Preferably, an opening handle 6 is provided on the outer surface of the box door 2, and the box can be opened manually or mechanically.

[0031] In order to facilitate the box door 2 to form a transportation channel, the maximum opening and closing angle between the box door 2 and the box body 1 is greater than 90°, so that a slope can be formed between the bottom surface of the box body 1 and the roadbed surface for cargo transportation.

[0032] In a detailed embodiment, the bottom edge of the door 2 is rotatably connected to the bottom edge of the open area via a hinge 3, and the door 2 can be flipped downward around the hinge point to open.

[0033] Specifically, the flip-down side-opening container further includes a door lock 7 for locking the door 2 and the box body 1. The door lock 7 is preferably arranged on the side opposite to the rotating side of the door 2, and the structure of the door lock 7 is selected according to actual conditions, as long as the door 2 does not separate from the box body 1 when in a locked state.

[0034] Embodiment 1:

[0035] The present embodiment provides a flip-down side-opening container, comprising a container body 1; the container body 1 is divided into three shipping areas, namely, container area I, container area II (moisture-sensitive), and container area III (constant temperature), by a partition plate; container area I is used as a shipping area for general dry goods; container area II is used as a shipping area for moisture-sensitive dry goods, such as packaged grains and chemical products; and container area III is used as a shipping area for dry goods that need to be kept warm, such as medicines, fresh food, etc.

[0036] The box body 1 has three open areas on both sides (left and right sides) extending along the length direction, and each box area has an open area on each side. The open area is connected to the box door 2; the bottom edge of the box door 2 is connected to the bottom edge of the open area through a hinge 3, and the maximum opening and closing angle between the box door 2 and the box body 1 is 136.5°; the box body 1 is provided with a door lock 7 matching the box door 2, and the area of ​​the box door 2 matches the area of ​​the open area.

[0037] The upper end of the outer surface of the box door 2 is provided with a box opening handle 6, and the length direction of the box opening handle 6 is parallel to the length of the box body 1. The outer surface of the box door 2 is provided with a support rod groove 4 along the height direction, and the box door support rod 5 is connected in the support rod groove 4; the upper end of the box door support rod 5 is hinged to the upper side wall of the support rod groove 4 through the hinge 3.

[0038] The flip-down side-opening container provided in this embodiment refers to the geometric dimensions of a 40-foot standard dry cargo container. The specific dimensions and technical parameters are shown in Table 1.

[0042] When packing, according to the demand for goods, open the door lock 7 of the corresponding box area, turn the box door 2, open the container from the side, and one end of the box door support rod 5 rotates around the connection point to leave the support rod groove 4 to provide support for the box door 2. Load the goods into the corresponding box area. After the box body 1 is full, close the box door 2, store the box door support rod 5 into the support rod groove 4, lock the door lock 7, and transfer the container by a freight vehicle. When unloading, after the vehicle stops steadily on the loading and unloading line, you can directly flip open the box door 2 without unloading, and support the box door support rod 5 between the outer surface of the box door 2 and the roadbed surface. The box door 2 forms a slope connecting the box body 1 and the roadbed surface, which serves as a transportation channel for packaged goods, making it easy to move the goods out.
