[0043] In one embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 shown, the bin body 3 includes four longitudinal rods 31 arranged in parallel. A rectangular space is formed between the four longitudinal rods 31, and this space constitutes the accommodation space inside the bin body 3 for accommodating multiple stacked shipping containers. Adjacent two longitudinal rods 31 are connected by a telescopic connection mechanism 32, so that the distance between adjacent two longitudinal rods 31 can be adjusted by the telescopic movement of the telescopic connection mechanism 32, thereby achieving the effect of adjusting the size of the bin body 3.

[0044] In one embodiment, the telescopic connection mechanism 32 includes an inclined connecting rod 321 and an intermediate connecting rod 322. The intermediate connecting rod 322 is disposed between the two longitudinal rods 31 in parallel with the two longitudinal rods 31. The intermediate connecting rod 322 is connected to the two longitudinal rods 31 through the inclined connecting rod 321. The inclined connecting rods 321 are symmetrically disposed on both sides of the intermediate connecting rod 322, and the inclined connecting rod 321 is rotatably connected to both the intermediate connecting rod 322 and the longitudinal rod 31. Pulling the longitudinal rod 31 can drive the inclined connecting rod 321 to rotate, achieving the effect of adjusting the size of the bin body 3.

[0045] An opening is formed at the bottom of the bin body 3. By adjusting the size of the bin body 3, the size of the opening can be changed so that the opening can adapt to cargo boxes of different sizes. Claw mechanisms are disposed on both sides of the opening. The claw mechanisms are used to grasp the cargo box located at the bottom of the bin body 3.

[0046] Each longitudinal rod 31 is slidably connected to a bin body 3 connecting block.

Since the lifting motor 33 is fixed on the width slide rail 221, the bin body 3 can be lifted or lowered. In this embodiment, lifting motors 33 are disposed on both width slide rails 221. Correspondingly, transmission strips corresponding to the lifting motors 33 are disposed on both sides of the bin body 3. The bin body 3 is lifted and lowered synchronously by the two lifting motors 33.
