[0002] With the increase of automobile trade, the transportation demand for automobiles also increases accordingly. An automobile container (a vehicle transportation folding cabinet) is a widely used automobile transportation device.
[0003] The existing automobile containers mainly have the following problems:
[0004] Since automobiles usually need to be transported more than three at a time, the automobiles need to be placed on the support vehicle frame in an inclined manner. The lifting of the support vehicle frame generally uses hydraulic or other transmission methods to drive, and the production cost and maintenance cost of the equipment are both relatively high, and professional maintenance personnel are required.
[0005] On the other hand, during the loading and unloading of vehicles, the loading and unloading site needs to prepare equipment in advance to set up a ramp for getting on and off the vehicle, which requires a large number of operators and a long preparation time. Summary of the Utility Model
[0006] Under the above background, the utility model provides an automobile container, which includes a front frame, a rear frame, a bottom frame, and a support vehicle frame. The rear frame is a flip mechanism. The support vehicle frame includes two sets of support devices. Each support device includes a support plate, a lifting rod, a connecting rod, a lifting rod, a first lifting block, a second lifting block, a fixed hinge, and a support shaft. One end of the support plate is connected to the bottom frame through the fixed hinge. The lifting rod is connected to the bottom frame through the support shaft. A pin hole is provided on the lifting rod. The first lifting block and the second lifting block are sleeved on the lifting rod and are provided with openings corresponding to the pin holes. The first lifting block and the second lifting block are connected through a hinge structure between the connecting rod and the lifting rod. The first lifting block is hinged to the support plate.
[0007] The concept of the utility model is as follows: By improving the lifting mechanism, the support vehicle frame is lifted under a pure mechanical structure, the stability is improved, and the manufacturing and maintenance costs are reduced. Through the built-in folding unloading plate, the preparation time and the number of personnel equipped in the loading and unloading site are reduced.
[0008] Preferably, the front frame includes a fixed frame, a column, a twist lock, and a limit post. The fixed frame is rotatably connected to the column. The twist lock is installed between the fixed frame and the column. The limit post is arranged on the fixed frame.
[0009] Preferably, the front frame further includes a bundling ring.
[0010] Preferably, the rear frame includes a fixed seat, vertical arms, a rotating shaft, and a limiting pin shaft. There are two vertical arms. The fixed seat is rotatably connected to the vertical arms through the rotating shaft, and the limiting pin shaft is arranged on the fixed seat.

The second lifting block 46 is used as a fulcrum at this time. Then press down the lifting rod 44, and the lifting rod 44 and the connecting rod 43 drive the first lifting block 45 to rise. When the opening on the first lifting block 45 corresponds to the pin hole 401 on the lifting rod 42, fix the first lifting block 45 with a pin and remove the pin on the second lifting block 46;
[0062] At this time, the first lifting block 45 is used as a fulcrum, lift up the lifting rod 44, and the lifting rod 44 and the connecting rod 43 drive the second lifting block 46 to rise. When the opening on the second lifting block 46 corresponds to the pin hole 401 on the lifting rod 42, fix the second lifting block 46 with a pin and remove the pin on the first lifting block 45;
[0063] After this process, one lifting action of the support plate 41 is completed. Repeat such actions several times until the support plate 41 is lifted to a suitable height and the vehicle reaches a preset inclination angle on the support vehicle frame 4.
[0064] The second vehicle and the third vehicle drive onto the vehicle container in sequence and are positioned, tied, and fixed. After loading three vehicles, remove the folding ramp plate 5 and fold and store it in the idle position on the bottom frame 3. Flip the rear frame 2 to the vertical state, and the loading process is completed.
[0065] The unloading process is similar to the loading process. Similarly, using the combined structure of the folding ramp plate 5 and the bottom frame 3, the three vehicles are unloaded from the vehicle container in sequence.
