[0050] Hereinafter, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These drawings show representative embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0051] The utility model provides a container.

[0052] First embodiment

[0053] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 Container 1 is used to carry a rolled cargo 100. Container 1 includes a base frame 11 and a cross member 12. Specifically, base frame 11 has a recess 11a. Cross member 12 includes a cross member 13 extending along a first horizontal direction and movably connected to base frame 11 along a vertical direction DH between a first position and a second position. When in the first position, cross member 13 is at least partially located within recess 11a. Cross member 13, while carrying rolled cargo 100, can move downward from the first position to the second position. When container 1 is carrying rolled cargo 100, cross member 13, located outside rolled cargo 100 and in the first position, can prevent the rolled cargo 100 from moving in the second horizontal direction, which is perpendicular to the first horizontal direction.

[0054] According to the container 1 of the present invention, the cross member 13 can be raised and lowered between a first position and a second position, thereby being capable of carrying rolled cargo 100 of different sizes. Furthermore, the cross member 13 extends along a first horizontal direction. Along a second horizontal direction, the cross member 13 located outside the rolled cargo 100 and in the first position can prevent the rolled cargo 100 from moving along the second horizontal direction. This increases the contact area between the cross member 13 and the rolled cargo 100, thereby ensuring that the rolled cargo 100 is effectively secured.

[0055] Furthermore, there are at least two cross-piece assemblies 12 spaced apart along the second horizontal direction. It will be appreciated that multiple cross-piece assemblies 12 can divide the container 1 into multiple loading areas, facilitating the placement of rolls 100 of varying sizes. Alternatively, some or all of the cross-piece assemblies 12 can be moved downward from the first position to the second position to accommodate rolls 100 of varying sizes.

[0056] It should be noted that, for example Figure 2 In the embodiment, when the rolled cargo 100 is placed in the container 1, the axial direction of the rolled cargo 100 is configured as the second horizontal direction. For rolled cargo 100 of different sizes, if the spacing between adjacent cross-pieces 13 along the second horizontal direction is not less than the axial dimension of the rolled cargo 100, the rolled cargo 100 can be positioned between adjacent cross-pieces 13 along the second horizontal direction. In this case, all cross-pieces 13 are in the first position. It is understood that if the spacing between adjacent cross-pieces 13 along the second horizontal direction is less than the axial dimension of the rolled cargo 100, at least one cross-piece 13 needs to support the rolled cargo 100. In other words, at least one cross-piece 13 needs to move from the first position to the second position. In the second horizontal direction, the cross-piece 13 located outside the rolled cargo 100 and in the first position can prevent the rolled cargo 100 from moving along the first horizontal direction, thereby enabling the container 1 to carry rolled cargo 100 of different sizes. In addition, the rolled goods 100 in the present invention are not limited to the rolled materials mentioned in the background technology part, and can also be cloth, rubber products, electric wires, copper wires, PE glue, PE film, etc.

[0057] Please continue reading Figure 1 and Figure 2 Preferably, the first horizontal direction is configured as the width direction DW of the container 1, and the second horizontal direction is configured as the length direction DL of the container 1. In an embodiment not shown, the first horizontal direction may also be configured as the length direction DL of the container 1, and correspondingly, the second horizontal direction is configured as the width direction DW of the container 1.

[0058] See also Figure 3The cross member 12 further includes an elastic member 14, both ends of which are connected to the cross member 13 and the base frame 11. The elastic members 14 are arranged in pairs, and adjacent elastic members 14 are arranged along the first horizontal direction ( Figure 3 In the width direction DW) of the container 1, the spacing is as follows: Figure 3 In the embodiment, the elastic member 14 is constructed as a compression spring, and the axial direction of the compression spring is constructed as the vertical direction DH. The interior of the chassis 11 also has a fixing member 15 for connecting the compression spring, and the fixing member 15 can be constructed as a square tube. It can be understood that Figure 3 The fixing member 15 extends along the second horizontal direction (ie, the length direction DL of the container 1 ). One end of the compression spring is connected to the bottom of the cross member 13 , and the other end of the compression spring away from the cross member 13 is connected to the fixing member 15 .

[0059] See also Figure 1 and Figure 3 The groove 11a includes a first bearing surface 11c, and the first bearing surface 11c is relative to the first horizontal direction ( Figure 3 The first bearing surfaces 11c are arranged in pairs, that is, in the width direction DW) and the vertical direction DH of the container 1. Furthermore, the bottom edges of the first bearing surfaces 11c adjacent to each other along the first horizontal direction may overlap (not shown). Alternatively, please continue to refer to Figure 3 The groove 11a may further include a connecting surface 11d, which is respectively connected to the bottom edges of the first supporting surfaces 11c adjacent to each other along the first horizontal direction, that is, the connecting surface 11d is constructed as the bottom surface of the groove 11a and is a flat surface.

[0060] Figure 4 and Figure 5 The container 1 is shown as being loaded with a rolled cargo 100. The outer peripheral surface of the rolled cargo 100 abuts against the first loading surface 11c. In other words, the first loading surface 11c is used to abut against the outer peripheral surface of the rolled cargo 100. Furthermore, the top surface of the cross member 13 can be configured as a second loading surface 13a. When the cross member 13 is loaded with the rolled cargo 100, the outer peripheral surface of the rolled cargo 100 abuts against the first loading surface 11c and the second loading surface 13a. Figures 4 to 6 , along the second horizontal direction ( Figure 6 In the longitudinal direction (DL) of the container 1, the cross member 13 located outside the rolled cargo 100 and in the first position can prevent the rolled cargo 100 from moving along the second horizontal direction. Preferably, the cross member 13 located in the first position can abut against the rolled cargo 100 along the second horizontal direction.

[0061] Return to Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2The groove 11a also has an opening 11b that communicates with the interior of the chassis 11, along the first horizontal direction ( Figure 1 In the vertical direction (i.e., the width direction (DW) of the container 1), both ends of the cross member 13 extend through the opening 11b into the interior of the base frame 11. Furthermore, the top edge of the first support surface 11c extends to the top surface of the base frame 11, while the top of the opening 11b is located below the top surface of the base frame 11, preventing the cross member 13 from moving upward from the base frame 11. In other words, along the vertical direction (DH), the cross member 13 can only abut against the top edge of the opening 11b at most, and the opening 11b does not extend upward through the first support surface 11c, thereby preventing the cross member 13 from sliding upward relative to the base frame 11. Furthermore, the bottom edge of the first support surface 11c is located above the bottom surface of the base frame 11. In other words, there is a gap between the bottom edge of the first support surface 11c and the bottom of the base frame 11. The opening 11b can be configured to extend downward through the bottom edges of adjacent first support surfaces 11c along the first horizontal direction, thereby increasing the downward movement range of the cross member 13.

[0062] See also Figure 4 The cross member 13 in the second position is located above the bottom of the groove 11a. In other words, when the cross member 13 carries the rolled cargo 100, the cross member 13 is still located above the connecting surface 11d, which also facilitates the configuration of the opening 11b so that it does not downwardly penetrate the bottom edge of the first supporting surface 11c (or the connecting surface 11d) adjacent to each other in the first horizontal direction. Alternatively, when the opening 11b is configured to downwardly penetrate the bottom edge of the first supporting surface 11c adjacent to each other in the first horizontal direction, the cross member 13 in the second position can be partially located above the bottom of the groove 11a, that is, in the vertical direction, the cross member 13 partially extends through the opening 11b to below the bottom of the groove 11a.

[0063] Return to Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The container 1 further includes a corner post 21 connected to the base frame 11. The corner post 21 extends in the vertical direction DH and is connected to a top corner piece 22 at one end away from the base frame 11. Along the length direction DL of the container 1, there are two corner posts 21 spaced apart. Along the width direction DW of the container 1, there are two corner posts 21 spaced apart. In addition, to facilitate folding and storage of the corner posts 21, the corner posts 21 can be configured to be arranged around the first horizontal direction ( Figure 1 The chassis 11 is pivotally connected to the chassis 11 in the width direction (ie the width direction DW) of the container 1.

[0064] Second embodiment

[0065] Figure 7 and Figure 8Another embodiment is shown. Compared with the first embodiment, the difference is that the elastic member 114 is configured as a tension spring, and the axis direction of the tension spring is relative to the vertical direction DH and the first horizontal direction ( Figure 7 and Figure 8 In the width direction (DW) of the container 1, one end of the tension spring is connected to the cross member 13, and the other end of the tension spring away from the cross member 13 is located above the cross member 13 and connected to the bottom frame 11, rather than being connected to the fixed member 15.

[0066] According to the container 1 of the present invention, different numbers of cross members 13 can be used to support the rolled cargo 100 according to the size of the rolled cargo 100. In addition, along the second horizontal direction, the cross member 13 located outside the rolled cargo 100 and in the first position can prevent the rolled cargo 100 from moving along the second horizontal direction, thereby increasing the contact area between the cross member 13 and the rolled cargo 100 and ensuring the fixation effect of the rolled cargo 100.
