Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model generally relates to the technical field of cargo boxes and containers, and more specifically to a container and a transport vehicle. Background Art
[0002] Containers can be loaded with packaged or unpackaged goods for sea, land and air transportation. Container transportation is an important mode of transportation in the process of multimodal transportation of international trade goods. The goods in the container do not need to be moved during transshipment. The container can be quickly loaded and unloaded as a transport unit, which is convenient for loading and unloading with mechanical equipment and can be reused for a long time. Freight transportation through containers can greatly improve transportation efficiency and reduce transportation costs.
[0003] Most of the existing bulk transport containers are standard 20-foot dry bulk containers, which comply with the "ISO 668-Series I freight containers-Classification, external dimensions and weights" standard, that is, containers have fixed external dimensions according to series and types. The 20-foot types are 1CC, 1C and 1CX, with a length of 6058mm, a width of 2438mm, and a height of 2591mm, 2438mm and less than 2348mm respectively. When transporting low-density goods such as grain, this type of container always has a situation where the cargo is full but the tonnage is lost, resulting in a waste of the transport capacity of the transport vehicle.
[0004] An open wagon is a type of railway transport vehicle. It is characterized by being uncovered and having four side panels, two of which have openable side doors to facilitate unloading of goods. However, when using an open wagon to transport goods, the goods need to be loaded and unloaded before and after transportation, wasting manpower and material resources. With the development of containers, a mode of transporting containers inside open wagons has gradually developed. This mode can retain the open wagon (for transporting other goods) and only requires loading and unloading containers before and after transportation, greatly improving the efficiency of loading and unloading goods. However, since the internal dimensions of an open wagon are larger than the external dimensions of a standard container, the internal space of the open wagon is wasted.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a container and a transport vehicle to at least partially solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0006] A series of simplified concepts are introduced in the utility model content section, which will be further described in detail in the detailed implementation section.
