Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of containers, and in particular to a consolidation protection structure and a modular container. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of information technology, the demand for container buildings is increasing. Large container buildings such as housing containers and data center containers are mostly prefabricated in factories and quickly assembled on site, which effectively shortens the production cycle and increases the construction speed.

[0003] However, in practical applications, it has been found that container buildings need to be assembled before use, and it is still necessary to ensure the insulation, waterproofing and moisture-proofing inside the container. Reliable sealing and waterproofing performance are still the key factors that determine its normal operation and stable operation. Especially in multi-container combination scenarios, the reliability of the sealing of the gaps at the splicing of adjacent containers directly affects the overall waterproofing level.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to propose a consolidation protection structure and modular container to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to propose a container protection structure and a modular container that can improve the waterproof sealing level of the joints after multiple containers are assembled, and prevent water seepage and slippage caused by vibration or damage, thereby expanding the applicable scenarios of containerized data centers.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a container consolidation protection structure, which is applied to container consolidation. The consolidation protection structure includes corner waterproof cover plates and end face waterproof cover plates.

[0007] The corner waterproof cover plate shall be installed at least at the corner of the adjacent container of the container leasing;

[0008] The end-face waterproof cover is installed on the corner posts of the adjacent container bodies of the container leasing; wherein, one end of the corner waterproof cover extends and partially overlaps the end-face waterproof cover.

[0014] The connecting part is installed at the corner of the adjacent container of the container consolidation, and one end of the connecting part extends and partially overlaps the end waterproof cover plate; one end of the extension is perpendicularly connected to the other end of the connecting part, and the other end of the extension extends horizontally and is located between the connecting pad and the connecting plate, or above the connecting plate.

[0015] Furthermore, it also includes a waterproof edge; the connection portion of the waterproof edge and the corner waterproof cover plate is located on both sides of the connecting pad, and the waterproof edge is located above the joint of adjacent container bodies of the container consolidation.

[0016] Furthermore, it also includes a top waterproof cover plate; the top waterproof cover plate is disposed on the waterproof edge.

[0017] Furthermore, one end of the top waterproof cover plate near the connecting plate extends above the connecting plate to form a shielding portion; the shielding portion is located above the gap between the connecting plate and the top waterproof cover plate, and above the extension of the corner waterproof cover plate.

[0018] Furthermore, it also includes a waterproof component sandwiched between adjacent containers of the container leasing, wherein the waterproof component has an interference fit with the side wall of the adjacent container.

[0019] Furthermore, it also includes filler material for placement in the gaps formed between adjacent containers of the container leasing unit.

[0020] In addition, this utility model also proposes a modular container, including a container leasing unit and a leasing protection structure as described above. The container leasing unit includes a first container and a second container arranged adjacent to each other; the first container and the second container are arranged side by side and connected by the leasing protection structure.

[0021] Furthermore, it also includes a connector; both the first container and the second container are provided with reinforcing frames, and when the first container and the second container are spliced ​​together, the two reinforcing frames fit together, and the connector is fitted onto the two reinforcing frames.

[0022] Through the above technical solution, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0023] By installing corner waterproof covers and end waterproof covers, and by partially overlapping the corner waterproof covers with the end waterproof covers, a tight waterproof structure is formed, which effectively prevents rainwater from seeping into the joints of the container and improves the waterproof performance.

[0024] In addition, by setting up multiple waterproof structures such as connecting pads, waterproof edges, top waterproof covers and waterproof components, and filling the gaps with fillers, along with the support of reinforced frames and connecting parts, a comprehensive waterproof and anti-corrosion system is formed, which greatly improves the sealing performance and service life of container consolidation, especially suitable for scenarios with high waterproof requirements, such as containers with built-in precision components and data center boxes.

[0030] Based on the teachings of this specification, those skilled in the art can form new technical solutions through cross-combination of different implementation methods without creating technical contradictions. Such variations should all be considered to fall within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0031] The following is a more detailed description of a container protection structure and a modular container according to the present invention, with reference to the accompanying drawings, which illustrate preferred embodiments of the present invention. It should be understood that those skilled in the art can modify the present invention described herein while still achieving its advantageous effects. Therefore, the following description should be understood as being of general knowledge to those skilled in the art and is not intended to limit the present invention.

[0032] The present invention will be described in more detail below by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings. The advantages and features of the present invention will become clearer from the following description. It should be noted that the drawings are in a very simplified form and use non-precise proportions, and are only used to facilitate and clarify the illustration of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this utility model embodiment proposes a container consolidation protection structure, which is applied to container consolidation. The consolidation protection structure includes corner waterproof cover plates 21 and end waterproof cover plates 22.

[0034] Specifically, container consolidation involves arranging at least two containers side-by-side (e.g., defining one container as the first container and the other as the second container), connecting the corner fittings 11 and corner posts 12 of the first and second containers that are close to each other. "Side-by-side arrangement" can be understood as the first and second containers being vertically stacked side-by-side, or horizontally arranged side-by-side; this embodiment does not impose any restrictions on the specific form of the side-by-side arrangement. The corner fitting waterproof cover 21 covers at least the corner fittings 11 of the adjacent container bodies 1 (i.e., the adjacent first and second containers); the end face waterproof cover 22 covers the corner posts 12 of the adjacent container bodies 1; wherein, one end of the corner fitting waterproof cover 21 extends and partially overlaps the end face waterproof cover 22. In this embodiment, the corner fitting waterproof cover 21 can simultaneously cover both sides of the corner fitting 11, achieving all-around protection for the corner fitting 11. The corner waterproof cover 21 extends and overlaps the end waterproof cover 22, forming a double-layer waterproof structure of "top cover and bottom pressure". Even if rainwater flows down along the corner waterproof cover 21, it will be blocked by the end waterproof cover 22, preventing rainwater from seeping into the connection between the corner piece 11 and the corner post 12. This stepped waterproof design not only improves the waterproof performance at the joints of the container, but also can withstand slight shaking of the container 1 during use, maintaining a good waterproof effect.

[0035] Preferably, both the end face waterproof cover 22 and the corner waterproof cover 21 are provided with multiple mating holes (such as screw holes). Specifically, by passing screws sequentially through the holes in the corner waterproof cover 21 and the holes in the end face waterproof cover 22, the end face waterproof cover 22 and the corner waterproof cover 21 are installed at a designated position (see reference). Figure 1(As shown). The multiple holes enable multi-point fixing, creating a uniform pressure distribution between the waterproof cover and the container 1, preventing localized deformation. Simultaneously, multi-point fixing effectively counteracts vibrations and deformations generated during transport and use, preventing the cover from loosening or shifting. In a specific example, screws can be used in conjunction with waterproof washers. The washers fill the gaps around the screw holes, further enhancing the seal at the joints and forming a point-to-surface waterproof structure. This design not only enhances the stability of the cover but also improves installation convenience and maintenance operability. Those skilled in the art will understand that the end-face waterproof cover 22 and the corner waterproof cover 21 can be configured according to actual needs. For example, they can be directly fixed by rivets. The above examples illustrate the feasibility of specific fixing methods, but this embodiment does not limit the fixing method. Those skilled in the art can adjust and change the fixing method according to needs to achieve the purpose of fixing the end-face waterproof cover 22 and the corner waterproof cover 21 to the container in this embodiment.

[0036] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment also includes a connecting pad 23 and a connecting plate 24. Specifically, the connecting pad 23 covers the top of the adjacent container body 1 of the container leasing and is located on one side of the corner waterproof cover 21; the connecting plate 24 covers the side of the connecting pad 23 away from the container body 1. The connecting pad 23 is fixed to the top of the container body 1 by welding, spanning the two container bodies 1, forming a stable connection base. In a specific example, the connecting plate 24 is made of metal, for example. When rainwater flows to the top of the container body 1, it is first blocked by the connecting plate 24. Even if a small amount of rainwater penetrates, it will be further blocked by the lower connecting pad 23, forming a reliable "double insurance" waterproof system. At the same time, the connecting pad 23 is fixed to the container by welding, which can improve the stability of the overall structure and prevent loosening when the container body 1 shakes, thereby maintaining a long-term waterproof effect.

[0037] As those skilled in the art will know, the connection method between the connecting plate 24 and the connecting pad 23 can be configured according to actual needs. For example, threaded holes can be provided on each of the adjacent housings 1, and corresponding threaded holes can be provided on the connecting pad 23 and the connecting plate 24. Hex bolts 25 can be passed through the threaded holes of the connecting plate 24, the threaded holes of the connecting pad 23, and the threaded holes in sequence to jointly install the connecting pad 23 and the connecting plate 24 on the adjacent housing 1. Alternatively, the connecting plate 24 can be installed with the connecting pad 23 using self-tapping screws.

[0038] To further enhance waterproofing, the corner waterproof cover 21 includes a connecting portion 210 and an extension portion 211. Both the connecting portion 210 and the extension portion 211 are L-shaped. The connecting portion 210 covers the corner piece 11 of the adjacent container body 1 of the container assembly, and one end of the connecting portion 210 extends and partially overlaps the end face waterproof cover 22. One end of the extension portion 211 is perpendicularly connected to the other end of the connecting portion 210, and the other end of the extension portion 211 extends horizontally and is located between the connecting pad 23 and the connecting plate 24, or above the connecting plate 24. The extension portion 211 can cover the seam between the connecting pad 23 and the corner piece 11, thereby preventing rainwater from accumulating at the seam.

[0039] In actual operation, the extension 211 is the same length as the connecting plate 24, extending horizontally from below the connecting plate 24 to form a drainage channel. That is, for the corner waterproof cover 21, the extension 211 extends horizontally from below the connecting plate 24, not only covering the joint between the connecting pad 23 and the corner piece 11, but also guiding rainwater along the surface of the extension 211 to both sides of the housing 1, preventing rainwater from accumulating at the joint. The equal length of the extension 211 and the connecting plate 24 ensures effective waterproofing of the entire joint area, and the horizontally extending structure creates a continuous drainage path, thereby improving the overall drainage effect.

[0040] The connection between the connecting part 210 and the extension part 211 can be chamfered, and the connecting part 210 and the extension part 211 can be integrally formed to reduce the occurrence of seams, thereby improving the overall waterproof effect and achieving multiple waterproof effects.

[0041] For the best options, please continue to refer to them. Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment also includes a waterproof edge 26. Specifically, the waterproof edge 26 and the corner waterproof cover plate 21 are located on both sides of the connecting pad plate 23, and the waterproof edge 26 is located above the joint of adjacent container bodies 1 of the container consolidation unit. The waterproof edge 26 is set at the joint of the top end frame of the container consolidation unit. In this embodiment, the waterproof edge 26 can be set horizontally, that is, the waterproof edge 26 is set parallel to the top surface of the container consolidation unit. This horizontally set waterproof edge 26 facilitates the connection of other top structures (such as rain eaves) and can effectively cover the joint of adjacent container bodies 1, forming a stable waterproof barrier, while also facilitating installation in conjunction with other waterproof structures.

[0042] In other alternative implementations, the waterproof edge 26 can also be designed with an incline, meaning that the two ends of the waterproof edge 26 have a certain height difference, allowing rainwater to flow naturally along the inclined surface to both sides of the housing 1. This incline design enhances the drainage effect. For example, by forming a preset flow-guiding angle, rainwater can be quickly directed to both sides of the housing 1, preventing rainwater from accumulating at the joints. The coordinated arrangement of the waterproof edge 26 and the connecting pad 23 forms a dual protective structure of "slope + trough". The waterproof edge 26 acts as a flow guide, quickly directing rainwater to both sides of the housing 1; while the connecting pad 23 serves as a second line of defense, blocking and guiding any small amount of rainwater that seeps through the waterproof edge 26. This design not only improves the waterproofing effect but also prevents material corrosion problems that may be caused by long-term accumulation of rainwater at the joints, thereby extending the service life of the entire waterproofing system.

[0043] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment also includes a top waterproof cover plate 27. Specifically, the top waterproof cover plate 27 is disposed on the waterproof edge 26. The top waterproof cover plate 27 adopts an integral design, spanning the entire joint area to form a continuous waterproof surface. In a specific example, the top waterproof cover plate 27 and the lower waterproof edge 26 form a "top cover, bottom guide" protective structure: the top waterproof cover plate 27 acts as the first line of defense, blocking most of the direct erosion of rainwater; while the waterproof edge 26 acts as the second line of defense, responsible for quickly draining any small amount of infiltrated rainwater. This layered waterproofing not only improves the overall waterproofing performance but also reduces the risk of damage to various components of the waterproofing system by reducing direct contact between rainwater and the joint. At the same time, the overall coverage of the top waterproof cover plate 27 also prevents dust, leaves, and other debris from falling into the joint.

[0044] The top waterproof cover 27 is fixedly connected to the waterproof edge 26 with screws to ensure a secure installation.

[0045] Preferably, the top waterproof cover 27 has rain eaves formed on both sides. The rain eaves allow rainwater to drain quickly, thereby improving the waterproof effect.

[0046] Preferably, the top waterproof cover 27 extends above the connecting plate 24 at one end, forming a shielding portion (not shown in the figure for simplicity); the shielding portion is located above the gap between the connecting plate 24 and the top waterproof cover 27, and above the extension 211 of the corner waterproof cover 21. The shielding portion allows the container protection structure to cover the joint between the connecting plate 24 and the top waterproof cover 27, thereby preventing rainwater from accumulating at the joint and further improving the overall waterproof effect.

[0047] For example, when the connecting plate 24 is installed with the connecting pad 23 via a detachable connector such as a self-tapping screw, the shielding part can be spaced from the exposed end of the self-tapping screw during its extension. The shielding part does not need to be located above the self-tapping screw; it only needs to be able to cover the joint.

[0048] In one embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment also includes a waterproof component 28 sandwiched between adjacent container bodies 1 of the container leasing, wherein the waterproof component 28 is interference-fitted with the side wall of the adjacent container body 1. In a specific example, the waterproof component 28 is a herringbone plug, which can enhance the sealing between the container bodies 1. The main skeleton in the middle of the herringbone plug provides support, so that it will not deform or sink after installation; the protruding ribs on both sides of the herringbone plug can fit tightly against the wall of the container body 1 to form multiple sealing layers.

[0049] Preferably, the fishbone plug can be made of rubber material, which can accommodate slight deformation of the box 1 during use. This structural design not only enhances the sealing between the boxes 1, but also provides a certain cushioning effect, reducing the mutual impact of the boxes 1 during transportation.

[0050] Preferably, this embodiment also includes a filler 31 for placement in the gaps formed by adjacent container bodies 1 of the container leasing unit. In a specific example, the filler 31 is made of foam material, which can improve the sealing effect of the gap. Specifically, the foam material generates continuous expansion stress after compression, ensuring close contact with the gap wall at all times; this structure not only improves the sealing effect of the gap, but also, through the elastic properties of the material, can adapt to the slight deformation of the container body 1 caused by temperature changes during use.

[0051] Furthermore, this embodiment also proposes a modular container, including container leasing and a leasing protection structure as described above. The container leasing includes a first container and a second container arranged adjacent to each other; the first container and the second container are arranged side by side and connected by the leasing protection structure.

[0052] Specifically, the LCL protection structure is installed at the corner posts 12, corner fittings 11, and top of the first and second containers. More specifically, the end waterproof cover plate 22 of the LCL protection structure is installed on the corner post 12; the corner waterproof cover plate 21 of the LCL protection structure is installed at least at the corner fitting 11.

[0053] In this embodiment, reference continues to be made to Figure 4As shown, in some special container structures, if neither of the two containers 1 has side walls, the joint will be formed by the direct connection of the top crossbeams of the two containers 1. The structure is weak and easily deformed due to uneven stress or vibration, which in turn affects the overall sealing and waterproof performance.

[0054] To address this issue, this embodiment adds a reinforcing frame 29 to the inner top edge of each container 1. This reinforcing frame 29 extends downwards from the top side beam of the container 1, thus extending downwards close to the top crossbeam of the container 1. Without introducing side walls or obstructing the container opening, it enhances the structural rigidity and compressive strength of the joint area. With the reinforcing frame 29 installed, during container consolidation, the two reinforcing frames 29 are positioned close together, strengthening the sides of the container 1 to resist deformation and reducing side deformation of the containers 1 caused by consolidation.

[0055] However, the connection points of the reinforcing frames 29 are located inside the housing 1, which is visually exposed and affects the overall aesthetics, especially in scenarios where a high degree of cleanliness is required. Therefore, this embodiment further provides a connecting piece 30, which has a U-shaped or C-shaped cross-section structure, etc., and can be seamlessly fitted onto the outside of the connection point of the two reinforcing frames 29. This not only covers the connection structure and bolt holes, thus concealing the unsightly parts, but also further improves the sealing and integrity of the joint area, balancing functionality and aesthetics.

[0056] In short, the reinforced frame 29 can solve the problem of insufficient strength of the sidewall-less container structure, while the socket 30 achieves triple optimization of structural reinforcement, waterproofing improvement and visual concealment without interfering with the function of the sidewall-less opening.

[0057] The reinforcement frame 29 is configured according to the requirements of the side-by-side arrangement when containers are consolidated. For example, when containers are consolidated side-by-side (i.e., horizontally aligned), the reinforcement frame 29 is installed on the opposite side walls of the first and second containers; when containers are consolidated end-by-end (i.e., vertically stacked), the reinforcement frame 29 is installed on the opposite end faces of the first and second containers. Regardless of the consolidation method, the reinforcement frame 29 is always installed on the contact surface of adjacent container bodies 1 to improve the structural strength and stability of the joint.

[0058] More specifically, the modular container in this embodiment also includes a connecting piece 30, which is fitted onto two reinforcing frames 29 between adjacent container bodies 1 of the container leasing. This arrangement forms a dual reinforcement system of "frame support + connecting piece": the reinforcing frames 29 provide the main load-bearing and support functions, preventing the container body 1 from deforming during use; the connecting piece 30, through its covering connection, enhances the connection strength between the reinforcing frames 29, improves the stability of the overall structure, and also results in better internal integrity and aesthetics for the container interior.

[0059] Preferably, the corner waterproof cover 21, end waterproof cover 22 and top waterproof cover 27 of this embodiment can all be made of metal.

[0060] In this embodiment, when containers need to be assembled, two adjacent container bodies 1 (i.e., the first container and the second container) are first joined together, and then corner waterproof covers 21 and end waterproof covers 22 are installed and fixed with screws. Next, connecting pads 23 and connecting plates 24 are installed to form the first waterproof barrier. Then, waterproof edges 26 and top waterproof covers 27 are installed to form the second waterproof barrier. Finally, waterproof components 28 are installed between the container bodies 1, and filler components 31 are used to fill the gaps, completing the construction of the entire waterproof system.

[0061] In summary, the container protection structure and modular container proposed in this utility model have the following advantages:

[0062] By installing corner waterproof covers and end waterproof covers, and by partially overlapping the corner waterproof covers with the end waterproof covers, a tight waterproof structure is formed, which effectively prevents rainwater from seeping into the joints of the container and improves the waterproof performance.

[0063] In addition, by setting up multiple waterproof structures such as connecting pads, waterproof edges, top waterproof covers and waterproof components, and filling the gaps with fillers, along with the support of reinforced frames and connecting parts, a comprehensive waterproof and anti-corrosion system is formed, which greatly improves the sealing performance and service life of container consolidation, especially suitable for scenarios with high waterproof requirements, such as containers with built-in precision components and data center boxes.

[0064] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope. Therefore, if these modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims of this utility model and their equivalents, this utility model also intends to include these modifications and variations.
