[0066] First embodiment
[0067] Figures 1 to 4 、 Figure 9 as well as Figure 11 A container end wall assembly 100 according to a first embodiment of the present invention is shown.
[0068] The container end wall assembly 100 may include two fixed hinges 110, two movable hinges 150, an end wall 130, a lifting member 120, a corner member 180, and an end beam 190. The two fixed hinges 110 may be disposed opposite each other along the width direction. The two movable hinges 150 may be disposed opposite each other along the width direction. The two movable hinges 150 are pivotally connected to the two fixed hinges 110, respectively, to move between a folded position and an upright position. The end wall 130 is fixedly connected to the movable hinges 150 to pivot together with the movable hinges 150.
[0069] It can be understood that the fixed hinge 110 can provide a pivot center and support for the pivoting of the movable hinge 150 and the end wall 130 .
[0070] The fixed hinge 110 may have a U-shaped opening with an opening facing inward. The fixed hinge 110 may include a side panel 112 and an end panel 113, wherein the two side panels 112 are arranged opposite each other along the width direction, and the end panel 113 is connected between the two side panels 112 to form a U-shaped opening with an opening facing inward. The two movable hinges 150 may each be pivotally connected within the U-shaped openings of the two fixed hinges 110. Specifically, the movable hinge 150 may be arranged between the two side panels 112 of the fixed hinge 110 along the width direction. The side panels 112 of the fixed hinge 110 may be provided with a first pivot hole 111. The movable hinge 150 may be provided with a second pivot hole 151. The positions of the first pivot hole 111 and the second pivot hole 151 correspond to each other. The pivot shaft 170 passes through the first pivot hole 111 and the second pivot hole 151 along a width direction perpendicular to the height direction so that the movable hinge 150 can pivot along the height direction relative to the fixed hinge 110. The pivot shaft 170 can be configured as a straight pin.
[0071] The movable hinge 150 includes a stacking member 140 and a first groove 154 that opens outward. The stacking member 140 is fixedly connected to the first groove 154. The movable hinge 150 in the upright position may have a first side 152 and a second side 153 that are oppositely disposed along the length direction, and the first side 152 is closer to the end plate 113 than the second side 153. Figure 3 And the following shows the second embodiment Figure 6 , a first groove 154 can be defined in the first side 152 of the movable hinge 150 in the upright position. The first groove 154 can include a bottom wall 154a, a first wall 154b, and a second wall 154c, with the bottom wall 154a connected between the first wall 154b and the second wall 154c. When the movable hinge 150 is in the upright position, the first wall 154b of the first groove 154 can be located above the second wall 154c. The stacking member 140 can be fixedly connected to the first wall 154b and / or the bottom wall 154a. The stacking member 140 can be welded to the first groove 154.
[0072] In some embodiments, the lower end of the first side 152 of the movable hinge 150 may be configured to be chamfered, thereby preventing the movable hinge 150 from being interfered with by the end plate 113 of the fixed hinge 110, etc. during the process of pivoting the movable hinge 150 between the upright position and the folded position. In the illustrated embodiment, the second pivot hole 151 may be defined at the lower end of the second side 153 of the movable hinge 150. Of course, the second pivot hole 151 may be defined at other locations of the movable hinge 150 if desired and / or necessary.
[0073] The lifting member 120 is provided at the top of the fixed hinge 110. The lifting member 120 enables the container 10 using the container end wall assembly 100 to be easily lifted and stacked even after being folded. The lifting member 120 can be constructed in a variety of ways. For example, the lifting member 120 can be an L-shaped corner member 120 (see FIG. Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 ), bevel angle piece 120 (see Figure 8 and Figure 9 ) or welded angle plate 120 (see Figure 10 and Figure 11 The lifting member 120 includes a top plate having a top surface and a lifting plate connected to an outer end of the top plate and extending downward from the top plate. The lifting plate is provided with a lifting hole 121.
[0074] The container end wall assembly 100 may further include corner fittings 180 disposed opposite each other along the width direction. The corner fittings 180 may be connected to the lower end of the fixed hinge 110 and / or the upper end of the end wall 130. The corner fitting 180 connected to the lower end of the fixed hinge 110 may be a bottom corner fitting 180, while the corner fitting 180 connected to the upper end of the end wall 130 may be a top corner fitting 180. The corner fittings 180 and the lifting fixture 120 may correspond in width direction. Specifically, the corner fitting holes 181 defined on the longitudinally outwardly facing outer end wall of the corner fitting 180 correspond in width direction to the lifting holes 121 of the lifting fixture 120. Consequently, the widthwise distance between the corner fitting holes 181 of the two corner fittings 180 may be equal to the widthwise distance between the lifting holes 121 of the two lifting fixtures 120. Lifting using the corner fittings 180 or the lifting fixture 120 may utilize the same lifting equipment.
[0075] The end wall 130 is fixedly connected to the movable hinge 150 so as to pivot together with the movable hinge 150. The stacking member 140 in the upright position abuts against the top surface 122 of the lifting member 120 in the height direction. The stacking member 140 can be roughly constructed as a rectangular parallelepiped with a notch (see FIG. Figure 4 ), flexibly adjust the gap between the movable hinge 150 and the lifting member 120, control the opening and angle of the movable hinge 150 and the end wall 130, and reduce the processing accuracy of the movable hinge 150. The actual size of the stacking member 140 can be adjusted according to actual needs.
[0076] The movable hinge 150 can simultaneously drive the end wall 130 to pivot from the upright position to the folded position.
[0077] The end wall 130 may include two corner posts 131 positioned opposite each other along the width direction, and an end wall panel 132 connected between the two corner posts 131. A second groove is defined along the widthwise inner side of each corner post 131 to securely connect with the movable hinge 150. The internal shape of the second groove can be adapted to the shape of the movable hinge 150, ensuring a tight fit and minimal gaps at the connection. A third groove may be defined at the lower end of each corner post 131, corresponding to the position of the first groove 154. The stacking element 140 is positioned in the third groove along the height direction, thereby facilitating the assembly of the end wall 130 and its corner posts 131 with the movable hinge 150 and its stacking element 140.
[0078] The stacking member 140 in the upright position abuts against the top surface 122 of the lifting member 120 in the height direction. The stacking member 140 is formed with a notch 160 that is recessed in a direction away from the lifting member 120. Specifically, the bottom surface 141 of the stacking member 140 in the upright position is recessed upward to form the notch 160.
[0079] The notch 160 can be used for inserting a prying member 12 such as a crowbar, so that the top surface 122 of the lifting member 120 can be used as a fulcrum. By utilizing the principle of leverage, the difficulty of pushing the end wall 130 from the upright position to the folded position is greatly reduced. In actual application, only two workers are needed to push the end wall 130 from the upright position to the folded position, especially when the end wall 130 is overweight or the center of gravity of the end wall 130 is outward, which significantly reduces the difficulty. The structure is simple, the cost is low, and the operation is easy.
[0080] refer to Figure 7 At least two notch portions 160 , for example, three notch portions 160 , may be formed at intervals along a width direction perpendicular to the height direction.
[0081] The bottom surface 141 of the stacking member 140 in the upright position is recessed upward to form a notch 160. In some embodiments, the bottom surface 141 of the stacking member 140 may extend inward along a length direction perpendicular to the height direction and tilt downward. As a result, the space for the prying member 12 to be inserted in the notch 160 extends downward from the outside to the inside, making it easier for the prying member 12 to be inserted and for the staff to apply force to the prying member 12. Figure 3 As shown, an upward force F is applied to the outer end of the prying member 12, and the inner end of the prying member 12 is inserted into the notch portion, pressing against the top surface 122 of the lifting member 120. The prying member 12 pivots the movable hinge 150, and the movable hinge 150 drives the end wall 130 to pivot.
[0082] The movable hinge 150 can simultaneously drive the end wall 130 to pivot from the folded position to the upright position when it pivots from the folded position to the upright position. In actual operation, the operator can also apply external force to cause the end wall 130 to pivot from the folded position to the upright position, thereby driving the movable hinge 150 to pivot from the folded position to the upright position.
[0083] The lower end or portion of the end wall 130 may be fixedly connected to two living hinges 150 in the width direction to be pivotally movable between a folded position and an upright position.
[0084] The end beam 190 may be connected between two fixed hinges 110. The fixed hinges 110 may be hinges. The movable hinges 150 may be hinges.
[0085] According to a second aspect of the present invention, a container 10 is provided, comprising a container end wall assembly 100 according to the first aspect of the present invention and a chassis 11. The chassis 11 extends in a longitudinal direction perpendicular to the height direction and is connected to a fixed hinge 110. The top surface of the chassis 11, adjacent to the container end wall assembly 100, is recessed downward to accommodate a movable hinge 150 in a folded position. Thus, after the end wall 130 and the movable hinge 150 are pivoted from the upright position to the folded position, the movable hinge 150 can be received by the downwardly recessed recess provided on the top of the chassis 11, facilitating the folding of the container end wall, thereby facilitating folding of the container into a relatively regular folded container, saving space, and facilitating subsequent operations such as stacking and lifting.
[0086] The container 10 according to the second aspect of the present invention can achieve similar technical effects as the container end wall assembly 100 of the first aspect described above.
[0087] Second embodiment
[0088] Reference Figure 5 、 Figure 6 、 Figure 8 as well as Figure 10 The container end wall assembly 200 according to the second embodiment of the present application is exemplified. Unlike the first embodiment, the stacking member 240 is not provided with a notch. The top surface 222 of the lifting member 220 is recessed downward to form a notch 260. The notch 260 allows for the insertion of a prying member such as a crowbar. Thus, the top surface 222 of the lifting member 220 can be used as a fulcrum. Utilizing the principle of leverage, the difficulty of pushing the end wall from an upright position to a folded position is greatly reduced, especially when the end wall is overweight or has its center of gravity outward. The structure is simple, the cost is low, and the operation is convenient.
[0089] In some embodiments, the top surface 222 of the lifting member 220 may extend inwardly and tilt downwardly along a length direction perpendicular to the height direction. Thus, the space for inserting the prying member in the notch 260 extends downwardly from the outside to the inside, facilitating the insertion of the prying member and making it easier for the operator to apply force to the prying member.
[0090] For the remaining parts of the second embodiment not explained, refer to the description and drawings of the first embodiment, and for the sake of brevity, they will not be described and / or illustrated in detail again.
[0091] Third embodiment
[0092] Reference Figure 7 , a container end wall assembly 300 according to the third embodiment of the present application is exemplified. Unlike the first embodiment, the bottom surface 341 of the stacking member 340 is recessed upward, while the top surface 322 of the lifting member 320 is recessed downward, forming a notch 360. The upward recess of the bottom surface 341 of the stacking member 340 and the downward recess of the top surface 322 of the lifting member 320 can correspond to each other in the width direction or be spaced apart. This can be flexibly adjusted based on actual needs.
[0093] For the remaining parts of the third embodiment not explained, refer to the description and drawings of the first embodiment, and for the sake of brevity, they will not be described and / or illustrated in detail again.
