[0002] For some prefabricated modular data center and steel structure building projects, connection and sealing of containers are required between layers. For such structures, for the convenience of connection and sealing of containers, the top side beams need to be flush with the upper surface of the corner fittings, and at least the top plate should not protrude above the upper surface of the top side beams to prevent interference with the installation connection.

[0003] In the prior art, for the drainage of the top of the container, most of them use the corrugated plate formed by a corrugated mold with a 4-6° arc to drain water, or form a certain angle through a process structure to support the top corrugated plate for drainage. In this way, the top corrugated plate will protrude above the upper surface of the top side beam of the container body, but be lower than the upper surface of the corner fittings. Therefore, the upper surface of the top side beam will be lower than the upper surface of the corner fittings by a large distance, which will interfere with the connection and sealing of containers.

[0045] Figures 1 to 5 There is shown a top frame assembly of a container according to the present utility model. The top frame assembly includes corner fittings 100, top longitudinal beams 110, top cross beams 120, a top plate 130, and a drainage assembly 150. The top longitudinal beams 110 extend along the length direction D2 of the container and are connected to the corner fittings 100. The top cross beams 120 extend along the width direction D3 of the container and are connected to the corner fittings 100. The top plate 130 is connected to the top longitudinal beams 110 and the top cross beams 120 and is lower than the top longitudinal beams 110 and the top cross beams 120 along the height direction D1 of the container. The drainage assembly 150 is disposed below the top plate 130 along the height direction D1 and is in communication with the upper surface of the top plate 130. The drainage assembly 150 is used to communicate with the outside of the container.

[0046] According to the top frame assembly of the container of the present utility model, the accumulated water on the top plate 130 is discharged to the outside of the container through the drainage assembly 150, and the top plate 130 is lower than the top cross beams 120 and the top longitudinal beams 110, so that the top plate 130 does not affect the combined connection and sealing of the containers, and the applicable range of the containers is improved.

[0047] Optionally, the upper surface of at least one of the top longitudinal beams 110 and the top cross beams 120 is flush with the upper surface of the corner fittings 100, so as to facilitate the connection and sealing of the containers. Preferably, the upper surfaces of both the top longitudinal beams 110 and the top cross beams 120 are flush with the upper surface of the corner fittings 100, such that the top plate 130 forms a sunken structure at the top of the container, enabling accumulated water to easily flow through the top plate 130 to the drainage assembly 150, and the top of the container is flatter, further facilitating the connection and sealing of the containers.

[0048] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the top frame assembly of the container according to the present utility model includes four corner fittings 100, two top longitudinal beams 110 and two top cross beams 120. The two top longitudinal beams 110 are spaced apart along the width direction D3 of the container, and the two top cross beams 120 are respectively disposed at both ends of the top longitudinal beams 110. The four corner fittings 100 are respectively arranged at both ends of the two top longitudinal beams 110, and the corner fittings 100 are used to connect the ends of the top longitudinal beams 110 and the top cross beams 120.

[0049] Referring to Figure 1 , the top frame assembly further includes an intermediate cross beam 160. The intermediate cross beam 160 is disposed between the top longitudinal beams 110 and is located in the middle of the top longitudinal beams 110 along the length direction D2 of the container, and is used to partition the top plate 130 and ensure the structural strength of the top plate 130.

[0050] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 4 , the top plate 130 includes a top panel 131 and a reinforcing plate 132. The top panel 131 is disposed on both sides of the intermediate cross beam 160 and is connected to the intermediate cross beam 160. The top panel 131 and the reinforcing plate 132 are arranged along the length direction D2 of the container, and the reinforcing plate 132 is respectively connected to the top panel 131 and the top cross beam 120, and is used to enhance the connection strength of the top panel 131.

[0051] Combined with Figure 5 as shown, the side edges of the reinforcing plate 132 close to the top longitudinal beam 110 and the top cross beam 120 are both provided with bent edges 134. The bent edges 134 of the reinforcing plate 132 are respectively attached to and connected to the inner sides of the top cross beam 120 and the top longitudinal beam 110, and one end of the top panel 131 away from the intermediate cross beam 160 is lapped onto the upper side of the reinforcing plate 132 and is connected to the reinforcing plate 132. Therefore, the arrangement of the reinforcing plate 132 can enhance the connection strength between the top panel 131, the top cross beam 120 and the top longitudinal beam 110.

[0052] Optionally, the drainage assembly 150 is disposed below the reinforcing plate 132, such that the drainage assembly 150 is closer to the top cross beam 120, thereby facilitating the drainage of accumulated water through the drainage assembly 150.

[0053] Referring to Figure 3 andFigure 4 The top frame assembly further includes a connecting member 170, which is a sheet metal part with an L-shaped cross-section. The connecting member 170 is disposed between the middle cross beam 160 and the top longitudinal beam 110, and extends along the length direction D2 of the middle cross beam 160 and the length direction D2 of the top longitudinal beam 110. The connecting member 170 is attached to and connected with the side walls of the middle cross beam 160 and the top longitudinal beam 110, and the side edges of the top panel 131 close to the middle cross beam 160 and the top longitudinal beam 110 are respectively lapped onto the corresponding connecting members 170 and fixed to the connecting members 170. The setting of the connecting member 170 enhances the connection strength between the top panel 131 and the middle cross beam 160 and the top longitudinal beam 110 respectively.

[0054] In addition, the bent edge 134 of the reinforcing plate 132 and the setting of the connecting member 170 cause the peripheral side edges of the top panel 131 to be blocked, thereby preventing the accumulated water on the top panel 131 from leaking to each joint, and improving the waterproof performance of the top frame assembly.

[0055] Optionally, the top frame assembly further includes a plurality of reinforcing cross beams 140, which are arranged at intervals along the length direction D2 of the container, and the reinforcing cross beams 140 extend along the width direction D3 of the container and are connected to the top longitudinal beam 110. The bottom surfaces of the top panel 131 and the reinforcing plate 132 are connected to the reinforcing cross beams 140, so the setting of the reinforcing cross beams 140 can improve the support strength of the top panel 131 and the reinforcing plate 132.

[0056] Refer to Figure 2 and Figure 5 , the drainage assembly 150 includes a connecting plate 151 and a drain pipe 152. The top plate 130 is provided with a first drainage port 133, and the first drainage port 133 can be selected as rectangular or square. The connecting plate 151 is connected to the bottom surface of the top plate 130 and is provided with a second drainage port 153. The projection of the second drainage port 153 along the height direction D1 is within the projection range of the first drainage port 133 along the height direction D1. In other words, the second drainage port 153 is communicated with the first drainage port 133.

[0057] The first end of the drain pipe 152 is connected to the second drainage port 153, and the second end of the drain pipe 152 is used to communicate with the outside of the container, so that the accumulated water on the top plate 130 (including the top panel 131 and the reinforcing plate 132) can be discharged to the outside of the container through the first drainage port 133, the second drainage port 153 and the drain pipe 152 in sequence.

[0058] Optionally, the drain pipe 152 can extend to the outside of the container through the top cross beam 120 or the top longitudinal beam 110, so as to discharge the accumulated water to the outside of the container.

[0059] Taking the example that the drain pipe 152 extends to the outside of the container through the top cross beam 120, refer toFigure 2 and Figure 5 A drain hole 121 is provided on the side wall of the top cross beam 120. The drain pipe 152 is in an L shape, and the second end of the drain pipe 152 passes through the drain hole 121 and extends to the outside of the container through the top cross beam 120, so that the drainage distance is short and the drainage efficiency is high.

[0060] Similarly, a drain hole 121 can also be provided on the top longitudinal beam 110. The drain pipe 152 can pass through the drain hole 121 of the top longitudinal beam 110 and extend to the outside of the container through the top longitudinal beam 110, so that the drainage distance is short and the drainage efficiency is high.

[0061] As an alternative, the drain pipe 152 can also extend to the inside of the container and be discharged to the outside of the container through a pipeline provided inside the container.

[0062] Optionally, both ends of the drain pipe 152 can be connected to the connecting plate 151 and the external pipeline respectively through threads, which is convenient for installation and maintenance.

[0063] Optionally, the top panel 131 is a corrugated plate, which has high structural strength and is easy to process.

[0064] Optionally, the top plate 130 (the top panel 131 and the reinforcing plate 132) can be arranged in parallel. In other words, the top plate 130 is perpendicular to the height direction D1 of the container, which can enable the accumulated water on the top plate 130 to be discharged through the first drain port 133.

[0065] Optionally, along the height direction D1 of the container, one end of the top plate 130 close to the middle of the top longitudinal beam 110 is higher than one end of the top plate 130 close to the top cross beam 120, so that the accumulated water on the top plate 130 can flow towards the first drain port 133 under the action of gravity.

[0066] Furthermore, along the length direction D2 of the container, in the order from the middle cross beam 160 to the top cross beam 120 at one end of the container, the heights of multiple reinforcing cross beams 140 decrease in sequence, so that the top plate 130 has an inclination, and one end of the top plate 130 close to the middle of the top longitudinal beam 110 is higher than one end of the top plate 130 close to the top cross beam 120, and the structure is stable.

[0067] The present utility model also provides a container, including the top frame assembly of the container according to the above. For the container according to the present utility model, the sunken setting of the top plate 130 does not affect drainage, side-by-side connection and sealing, and has a wide range of applications.
