Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of container fixing, in particular to a conversion frame for container fastening. Background Art

[0002] The container is usually fixed to the deck of the ship in the following manner: a fixing part is provided at the four corners of the bottom of the container, and a connecting seat corresponding to the fixing part of the container is provided on the deck (the position of the connecting seat can be seen in Figure 1 Point A in Figure 1 The dotted line in the figure represents the outline of the container), and then the fixing part is connected to the connection seat by a twist lock. The connection seat on the deck needs to have a hole opened on the deck. Once the position of the connection seat is determined, the hole on the deck is also determined. After the classification society inspects the ship, the hole position on the deck is not allowed to be changed at will.

[0003] In view of the advantages of longitudinal arrangement of containers, such as improving unloading efficiency, rationally utilizing space, ensuring ship safety, reducing lashing difficulty and reducing resistance, containers are usually arranged longitudinally on the hull, that is, the length direction of the container is parallel to the longitudinal direction of the hull (i.e. Figure 1 For example, containers on multipurpose ships and icebreakers are usually arranged longitudinally.

[0004] However, for ships with special purposes, such as multi-purpose ships and icebreakers, since some large tools or other items will be placed on the ship, and since there needs to be a certain amount of space on both sides of the ship in the width direction for people to pass or launch operations, these items will be placed at one end of the longitudinal direction of the container, and the door of the container is usually set at one end of its longitudinal direction. Therefore, in the above scenario, the door of the container cannot be opened smoothly on the ship. Especially for the situation where multiple containers are arranged in sequence in the longitudinal direction, for example, two 10-inch containers are arranged in sequence along the longitudinal direction of the hull. For each 10-inch container, one end is blocked by the adjacent 10-inch container. Once the other end is blocked, no matter which end the door of the container is arranged, it cannot be opened normally. Based on the above situation that the hole position on the deck cannot be changed at will, when encountering the situation where the door of the container needs to be opened on the hull, the prior art generally takes measures to transfer the items on the ship to a position that does not hinder the door, such as hoisting, but this method will waste a lot of manpower, and changing the items at the door of the container may also cause the problem of inconvenience in the use of the items. Therefore, when the deck is only provided with holes for longitudinally fixing containers, a convenient and labor-saving solution is urgently needed to solve the problem of interference between the container door and the items on board.
