Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of containers, and in particular to a container for storing and transporting liquid materials. Background Art
[0002] Currently, in international intermodal transport, liquids are mostly transported in tank containers. Because liquid transport requires relatively high strength, tank container designs are more likely to meet these requirements. However, this design compromises internal volume. Conventional square containers, on the other hand, have a larger internal volume, but their strength requirements for liquid transport are significantly more challenging.
[0003] Therefore, a container is needed to at least partially solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] The Summary of the Utility Model introduces a series of simplified concepts that will be further described in the Detailed Description of the Implementation Method.

[0079] The present application provides a container for storing and transporting liquid materials.
[0080] Now, exemplary embodiments according to the present application will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0081] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in a specific embodiment, a square container 100 can be used to store and transport liquid materials. In this application, the container 100 can also be referred to as a square box 100. Under the same length, width and height dimensions, a square box has a larger volume than a round tank container.
[0082] The container 100 comprises a rectangular frame formed by connecting multiple beams (two bottom side beams 17A, two top side beams 17B, two bottom end beams 18A, and two top end beams 18B) and four corner posts 10. A roof panel 11, floor panel 12, left side wall 13, right side wall 14, front end wall 15, and rear end wall 16 are attached to this frame. The roof panel 11 and floor panel 12 are spaced apart along the height direction DH of the container 100. The left side wall 13 and right side wall 14 are spaced apart along the width direction DW of the container 100. The front end wall 15 and rear end wall 16 are spaced apart along the length direction DL of the container 100. The corner posts 10 extend vertically, and the left side wall 13, right side wall 14, front end wall 15, and rear end wall 16 all extend in a vertical plane, giving the container 100 a generally rectangular parallelepiped structure. The roof panel 11, floor panel 12, left side wall 13, right side wall 14, front end wall 15, and rear end wall 16 collectively enclose an interior space 19 of the container 100. The inner space 19 is used to accommodate materials (cargo), especially liquid materials.
[0083] The top panel 11 is provided with a manhole 71 for personnel to pass through and also serves as a feed inlet (liquid materials flow into the interior space 19 through manhole 71). Manhole 71 is typically covered. The rear wall 16 is provided with a discharge port 72, through which liquid materials flow out of the interior space 19. Discharge port 72 is typically provided with a discharge valve. When the discharge valve is opened, discharge port 72 is opened. A cover can also be provided to prevent the discharge valve from being accidentally touched. The top panel 11 is also provided with a venting device 70 for ventilating the interior space 19 to the outside environment. The venting device 70 can be, for example, a valve. When the valve is opened, the interior space 19 is connected to the outside environment. To discharge materials, the venting device 70 is first operated to ventilate the interior space 19 to maintain a uniform air pressure. The discharge valve is then opened, allowing air to continuously enter the interior space 19, thereby equalizing the pressure inside and outside the container 100. This prevents deformation of the outer wall of the container 100 due to the pressure imbalance.
[0084] In order to reduce the surge caused by the liquid during transportation, at least one wave-breaking plate 20 is provided inside the container 100. The wave-breaking plate 20 is substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction DL of the container 100, that is, substantially parallel to the front and rear end walls. Figure 2 As shown, the container 100 may include multiple wave-breaking panels 20, which are spaced apart along the length direction DL of the container 100. The wave-breaking panels 20 divide the interior space 19 into several smaller spaces, so that the liquid in the interior space 19 can basically only surge in the smaller spaces between two adjacent wave-breaking panels 20, thereby reducing surges and improving the safety factor. Preferably, the wave-breaking panels 20 are provided with a third opening or third gap 21 for personnel to pass through.
[0085] The container 100 is also provided with a thermometer 52 and a heating pipe 40. The temperature of certain liquid materials needs to be maintained within an appropriate temperature range. The thermometer 52 is used to detect the temperature of the liquid. The thermometer 52 is installed on the rear end wall 16, for example. The heating pipe 40 is arranged in the internal space 19 to accommodate the heating liquid. When the sensing value of the thermometer 50 shows that the temperature of the liquid in the internal space 19 is too low, the heating pipe 40 is connected to an external device so that high-temperature liquid flows through the inside of the heating pipe 40, thereby heating the liquid material in the internal space 19. The heating pipe 40 is installed on the floor 12, for example. The rear end wall 16 is provided with a first through hole 61 and a second through hole 62, which are respectively connected to the inlet and outlet of the heating pipe 40 (for example, respectively accommodating the two ends of the heating pipe 40).
[0086] To reduce the gross weight of the container 100 while ensuring the strength of the exterior walls, at least one of the front and rear end walls (15 and 16) and the left and right side walls (13 and 14) preferably includes corrugated sheeting 80. The corrugated sheeting 80 extends vertically. Preferably, all of the front and rear end walls (15 and 16) and the left and right side walls (13 and 14) are constructed using corrugated sheeting 80. The end walls (15 and 16) are each supported by two bottom end beams 18A. The side walls (13 and 14) are each supported by two bottom side beams 17A.
[0087] like Figure 3 As shown, the corrugated sheet 80 includes a plurality of convex waves 81 and a plurality of concave waves 82, which are arranged alternately. In this application, the convex waves 81 and concave waves 82 are defined as viewed from the interior space 19. The portions protruding toward the interior space 19 are convex waves 81, and the portions protruding toward the exterior of the container 100 are concave waves 82. The corrugated sheet 80 has a wavy appearance, including alternating crests 83 and troughs 84, and connecting portions 85 connecting adjacent crests 83 and troughs 84. A crest 83 and its two connecting portions 85 constitute a convex wave 81. A trough 84 and its two connecting portions 85 constitute a concave wave 82. The alternating direction of the convex and concave waves 81 and 82 is the corrugation width direction DCW. The direction in which the convex and concave waves 81 and 82 extend is the corrugation length direction DCL. The convex and concave directions of the corrugated sheet 80 are the corrugation depth direction DCD. Preferably, the corrugation width direction DCW, the corrugation length direction DCL and the corrugation depth direction DCD are perpendicular to each other.
[0088] In the present application, in the two side walls, convex waves 81 and concave waves 82 are arranged alternately along the length direction DL of the container 100. In the two end walls, convex waves 81 and concave waves 82 are arranged alternately along the width direction DW of the container 100. In other words, the axial direction of the corrugated plate 80 serving as the outer wall is the vertical direction.
[0089] In this application, the two bottom end beams 18A and the two bottom side beams 17A may be referred to as the bottom beams 378 of the container 100, and the two top side beams 17B and the two top end beams 18B may be referred to as the top beams 377 of the container 100. Figure 4 As shown, the corrugated panels 80 are positioned between the top beam 377 and the bottom beam 378. The corrugated panels 80 are supported by the bottom beam 378, or in other words, the bottom of the corrugated panels 80 is connected to the bottom beam 378. The top of the corrugated panels 80 is connected to the top beam 377, for example, to the lower surface of the top beam 377. The left side wall 13, the right side wall 14, the front wall 15, and the rear wall 16 can also be referred to as wall panels of the container 100.
[0090] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, to strengthen the corrugated panels 80, the container 100 further includes at least one reinforcement beam 30. The reinforcement beam 30 is disposed on the inner side of the corrugated panels 80 (the side of the corrugated panels 80 facing the interior space 19) to enhance the strength of the corrugated panels 80. Preferably, the reinforcement beam 30 extends vertically. Preferably, the cross-section of the reinforcement beam 30 is configured as a non-linear, open-ended figure. Preferably, when projected along the height direction DH of the container 100, the reinforcement beam 30 and the corrugated panels 80 form an open figure. Consequently, the reinforcement beam 30 and the corrugated panels 80 form an open structure (the component formed by the reinforcement beam 30 and the corrugated panels 80 has only an outer surface and no inner surface). All surfaces of the reinforcement beam 30 and the inner side of the corrugated panels 80 are exposed to the environment (e.g., to the interior space 19 of the container 100), facilitating the application of coatings (e.g., anti-rust paint, anti-corrosion paint, etc.) to these surfaces. For example, the reinforcing beam 30 may be welded to the inner surface of the corrugated plate 80 to securely connect the reinforcing beam 30 to the corrugated plate, and then all surfaces may be coated to prevent the components in contact with the liquid material from being corroded by the liquid material.
[0091] In the present application, the “inner side” of a component refers to the side of the component facing the interior of the container 100 when the container 100 is assembled.
[0092] Preferably, the reinforcement beams 30 protrude toward the interior of the container 100 relative to the innermost surface (e.g., the peaks 83) of the corrugated sheet 80. In other words, if a reference plane extending parallel to the innermost point of the corrugated sheet 80 is drawn, the corrugated sheet 80 is entirely located on one side of the reference plane, while at least a portion of the reinforcement beams 30 is located on the other side of the reference plane. In other words, in the projection of the container 100 along the height direction DH, at least a portion of the reinforcement beams 30 provided on the side walls is located between the innermost surface of the corrugated sheet 80 in the side walls and the centerline of the container 100 along the length direction DL; while at least a portion of the reinforcement beams 30 provided on the end walls is located between the innermost surface of the corrugated sheet 80 in the end walls and the centerline of the container 100 along the width direction DW. Due to their greater depth, the reinforcement beams 30 can more effectively enhance the strength of the corrugated sheet 80.
[0093] Since the cross section of the reinforcing beam 30 is a non-closed figure, the reinforcing beam 30 can be formed of a plate, for example, the reinforcing beam 30 can be constructed as a sheet metal part. Figures 5 to 14 As shown, the cross section of the reinforcing beam 30 can be a combination of a broken line or a straight line, that is, each wall constituting the reinforcing beam 30 is a flat plate. Of course, the cross section of the reinforcing beam 30 can also be a curve, a combination of curves, or a combination of straight lines and curves.
[0094] For example, the reinforcing beam 30 includes at least a first wall 31 and a second wall 32. The first wall 31 can be configured as a flat plate. Of course, the first wall 31 can also be configured as a non-flat plate. The first wall 31 has a first side 33 and a second side 34 opposite to each other. The first side 33 is connected (e.g., welded) to the corrugated plate 80, and the second wall 32 is connected (e.g., welded) to the second side 34 of the first wall 31. The extension direction of the second wall 32 is not parallel to the extension direction of the first wall 31, thereby ensuring that the cross-section of the reinforcing beam 30 is non-linear. The first wall 31 can be substantially perpendicular to the corrugation width direction DCW of the corrugated plate 80. This allows both sides of the first wall 31 to be well exposed to the environment, facilitating the coating of the reinforcing beam 30.
[0095] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the cross-section of the reinforcing beam 30 can be J-shaped, wherein the J-shape is formed by a broken line (such as the embodiment shown in the figure), a curved line, or a combination of straight lines and curved lines. The end (first side 33) of one vertical section (first wall 31) of the J-shape is connected to the corrugated sheet 80. Figure 5 The implementation method and Figure 6 The difference between the embodiments is the angle of the J-shaped bending portion (for example, the angle between the first wall 31 and the second wall 32).
[0096] like Figure 7As shown, the cross-section of the reinforcing beam 30 can also be L-shaped, wherein the L-shape is formed by a broken line (such as the embodiment shown in the figure) or a combination of straight lines and curves. The end (first side 33) of one vertical section (first wall 31) of the L-shape is connected to the corrugated plate 80.
[0097] like Figure 8 As shown, the cross-section of the reinforcing beam 30 may also be Z-shaped, wherein the Z-shape is formed by a zigzag line (such as in the illustrated embodiment), a curved line, or a combination of straight lines and curved lines. The end (first side 33) of one of the two opposing arms of the Z-shape (the first wall 31) is connected to the corrugated sheet 80. Preferably, the angle of each of the two bends of the Z-shape is 30 to 150 degrees.
[0098] like Figures 9 to 13 As shown, the cross section of the reinforcing beam 30 may also be T-shaped, wherein the T-shaped shape is formed by a combination of straight lines (such as the embodiment shown in the figure), or by a combination of curves, or by a combination of straight lines and curves. The end (first side 33) of a vertical portion of the T-shaped portion (the first wall 31) is connected to the corrugated plate 80. In the T-shaped embodiment, for example, a flange 35 may be provided at the end of a horizontal portion of the T-shaped portion (the second wall 32) to enhance the strength of the reinforcing beam 30. The flange 35 may be provided in a variety of ways. For example Figure 10 As shown, the flange 35 is bent toward the corrugated sheet 80. Figure 11 As shown, the flange 35 is bent away from the corrugated sheet 80. Figure 12 As shown, the flange 35 is bent toward the corrugated plate 80 and then bent again to form an L-shaped flange. Figure 13 As shown, the flange 35 is bent away from the corrugated plate 80 and then bent again to form an L-shaped flange.
[0099] Preferably, the reinforcement beam 30 is provided at the convex wave 81 of the corrugated plate 80. For example, each of the plurality of continuous convex waves 81 of the corrugated plate 80 is provided with a reinforcement beam 30. For example, each convex wave 81 of the corrugated plate 80 is provided with a reinforcement beam 30. When the reinforcement beam 30 is provided at the convex wave 81 of the corrugated plate 80, the reinforcement beam 30 naturally protrudes toward the interior of the container 100 relative to the innermost surface (peak portion 83) of the corrugated plate 80. Of course, as Figure 14As shown, the reinforcement beam 30 can also be positioned within the concave waves 82 of the corrugated sheet 80. When positioned within the concave waves 82 of the corrugated sheet 80, the reinforcement beam 30 needs to have a certain depth such that it protrudes toward the interior of the container 100 relative to the innermost surface (peaks 83) of the corrugated sheet 80. For example, the first wall 31 can have a greater depth H so that, when projected along the corrugation width direction DCW of the corrugated sheet 80, the second side 34 of the first wall 31 protrudes toward the interior of the container 100 relative to the innermost surface of the corrugated sheet 80. This allows all structures of the reinforcement beam 30, except the first wall 31, to be positioned outside the concave waves 82. This simplifies the structure of the reinforcement beam 30 positioned within the concave waves 82, facilitating the coating of paint on the surface of the reinforcement beam 30 and the inner surface of the concave waves 82.
[0100] The axial length of the reinforcing beam 30 can be substantially the same as the height of the corrugated plate 80, that is, the top of the reinforcing beam 30 can reach the position of the top beam 377 of the container 100, and the bottom thereof can reach the position of the bottom beam 378 of the container 100. Figure 15 As shown, the bottom of the reinforcing beam 30 can contact the bottom beam 378 and can be further fixed to the bottom beam 378. The top of the reinforcing beam 30 can contact the top beam 377 and can be further fixed to the top beam 377. Alternatively, the axial length of the reinforcing beam 30 can also be less than the height of the corrugated plate 80. Figure 16 As shown, the bottom of the reinforcement beam 30 is higher than the bottom beam 378 of the container and is separated from the bottom beam 378. The top of the reinforcement beam 30 can be lower than the top beam 377 of the container and is separated from the top beam 377.
[0101] In addition to being provided on the inner side of the wall panel, the reinforcing beam can also be provided on the inner side (lower surface) of the top plate 11 to strengthen the strength of the top plate 11. The reinforcing beam provided on the top plate 11 is called an auxiliary reinforcing beam. Preferably, the cross-section of the auxiliary reinforcing beam is configured as a non-linear, non-closed figure. Preferably, in the projection of the container 100 along the axial direction of the auxiliary reinforcing beam, the auxiliary reinforcing beam and the top plate 11 form a non-closed figure. Thus, the auxiliary reinforcing beam and the top plate 11 also form an open structure, and each surface of the auxiliary reinforcing beam and the inner side of the top plate 11 are exposed to the environment, and these surfaces can be easily coated with paint.
[0102] The auxiliary reinforcement beams may extend along the width direction DW of the container 100, such that a plurality of auxiliary reinforcement beams are arranged at intervals along the length direction DL of the container 100. Alternatively, the auxiliary reinforcement beams may extend along the length direction DL of the container 100, such that a plurality of auxiliary reinforcement beams are arranged at intervals along the width direction DW of the container 100. Alternatively, the extension direction of the auxiliary reinforcement beams may be non-parallel to both the length direction DL and the width direction DW of the container 100.
[0103] Similar to the reinforcement beam 30, the auxiliary reinforcement beam has a cross-section that is a broken line, a combination of straight lines, a curve, a combination of curves, or a combination of straight lines and curves. The auxiliary reinforcement beam has a J-shaped, L-shaped, Z-shaped, or T-shaped cross-section. Thus, the auxiliary reinforcement beam differs from the reinforcement beam 30 in its mounting position, but the two can have similar structures. For example, the auxiliary reinforcement beam and the reinforcement beam 30 can have the same cross-section. The auxiliary reinforcement beam and the reinforcement beam 30 can be cut from the same profile. Alternatively, the auxiliary reinforcement beam 38 and the reinforcement beam 30 can be constructed as the same component.
