[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and feature vectors in the embodiments of this application can be arbitrarily combined with each other.

[0020] Flat rack containers are characterized by flexible loading and unloading and unrestricted space. In related technologies, they are commonly used to transport automobiles and small items. When using flat rack containers to transport automobiles, space needs to be reserved at the bottom of the container to install a locking mechanism. The container is then connected to the vehicle via ropes to secure it. When not transporting automobiles, the reserved space at the bottom of the container occupies some of the transport space, which is not conducive to the transport of small items and thus affects the transport efficiency of the flat rack container.

[0021] To address the above problems, this application provides a frame box, which includes a base frame, detachable panels, and a locking structure. The detachable panels are disposed between adjacent support components and can be installed or removed according to transportation needs. When the frame box transports a vehicle, the detachable panels are removed, and the locking structure is connected to the vehicle body via a locking device to secure the vehicle. When transporting small items, the detachable panels are installed on the frame box and cover the space between adjacent support components to increase the transport space of the frame box and improve its transport efficiency.

[0022] One embodiment of this application provides a frame box, see [link to relevant documentation] Figures 1-2 The frame box 10 includes a base frame 1, a disassembly plate 2, and a locking structure 3. The base frame 1 is located at the bottom of the frame box 10 and is used to support items. The base frame 1 includes at least two support components 11, and a space 5 is provided between adjacent support components 11. The weight of the frame box 10 can be reduced by providing the space 5. The length direction of the base frame 1 is a first direction, and the base frame 1 extends along the first direction. Exemplarily, the first direction is parallel to the horizontal direction, so that the base frame 1 can support items on a horizontal surface.

[0023] See Figures 1-2 The detachable plate 2 is disposed between adjacent support components 11. The detachable plate 2 is detachably connected to the adjacent support component 11. When the detachable plate 2 is connected to the support component 11, the detachable plate 2 covers the gap space 5. For example, the detachable connection between the detachable plate 2 and the adjacent support component 11 can be such that the detachable plate 2 overlaps the support component 11, or the detachable plate 2 is snapped onto the support component 11.

[0024] See Figures 1-2The locking structure 3 is disposed within the space 5. The locking structure 3 is used to attach a locking device to secure the item when the disassembly plate 2 is removed. For example, the locking device can be a rope or a fixing rod. The fixing rod can be provided with locking rings at both ends. The locking ring at one end of the fixing rod is connected to the locking structure 3, and the locking ring at the other end of the fixing rod is connected to the item to secure the item.

[0025] In this embodiment, the overall weight of the frame box 10 is reduced by using the gap space 5 between adjacent support components 11, while ensuring load-bearing strength, thus reducing energy consumption during transportation. The detachable plate 2 is detachably connected to the adjacent support components 11. When transporting a car, removing the detachable plate 2 exposes the locking structure 3 within the gap space 5. The locking structure 3 and the car are then connected by a locking device to secure the car, meeting the fixing requirements for car transportation. When transporting small items, the detachable plate 2 is installed between adjacent support components 11, completely covering the gap space 5, allowing the base frame 1 to form a complete load-bearing surface. This avoids the existing reserved space at the bottom of the frame box 10 occupying the transportation space for small items, thereby increasing the transportation space and improving the versatility of the frame box 10.

[0026] In some embodiments, see Figure 5 The support assembly 11 includes multiple support beams 111 and a load plate 112. The multiple support beams 111 are arranged side by side. For example, the support assembly 11 includes six support beams 111 arranged in parallel. The load plate 112 is disposed on top of the support beams 111, covering the support beams 111, and the support beams 111 provide stable support to the load plate 112.

[0027] In this embodiment, multiple parallel support beams 111 can improve the load-bearing capacity of the frame box 10 for items. When the loading plate 112 bears the weight of the items, the multiple support beams 111 can improve the structural strength of the support assembly 11, preventing a single support beam 111 from bending or breaking due to overload, and preventing the loading plate 112 from denting or deforming. The loading plate 112 is set on top of the support beams 111. The parallel arrangement of multiple support beams 111 can limit the installation position of the loading plate 112, improve the installation efficiency of the loading plate 112 on the support beams 111, and cover the support beams 111 to cover the gaps between adjacent support beams 111, further enabling the support assembly 11 to form a complete load-bearing surface, reducing the risk of items shaking or colliding due to uneven load-bearing surfaces.

[0028] In some embodiments, see Figures 4-6The carrying plate 112 includes an overlapping portion 1121, which corresponds to the interval space 5. Exemplarily, the overlapping portion 1121 is located on the side of the carrying plate 112 closest to the interval space 5, and in its vertical projection, at least a portion of the overlapping portion 1121 is located within the interval space 5. The overlapping portion 1121 abuts against the disassembly plate 2 and is used to support the carrying plate 112 so that the disassembly plate 2 can cover the interval space 5.

[0029] In this embodiment, the loading plate 112 is supported by the overlapping part 1121 so that the disassembly plate 2 and the bearing surface of the loading plate 112 are located on the same plane. The disassembly plate 2 and the bearing surface of the loading plate 112 form a continuous and flat whole, which can avoid the occupation of the bearing area by the interval space 5, thereby increasing the transport capacity of the frame box 10.

[0030] In some embodiments, see Figure 6 The overlapping portion 1121 includes a mounting groove 1121a, which has a mounting opening facing the disassembly plate 2. Exemplarily, the mounting opening faces upwards, and the mounting groove 1121a extends along a first direction. Limiting portions 21 are provided on both sides of the disassembly plate 2 corresponding to the adjacent support components 11. That is, the limiting portions 21 are located at the two ends of the disassembly plate 2 that contact the two adjacent support components 11. The limiting portions 21 are inserted into the mounting groove 1121a through the mounting opening, at which point the disassembly plate 2 abuts against the overlapping portion 1121.

[0031] In this embodiment, after the limiting part 21 is inserted into the mounting groove 1121a through the mounting port, the side wall of the mounting groove 1121a forms a horizontal constraint on the limiting part 21, which can effectively limit the large-scale movement of the disassembly plate 2 during transportation bumps, thereby ensuring the stability of the items carried on the disassembly plate 2 during transportation.

[0032] In some embodiments, see Figure 6The overlapping portion 1121 includes a support plate 1122 and a first plate 1121b, a second plate 1121c, and a third plate 1121d connected in sequence. The support plate 1122 is used to support articles. The first plate 1121b, the second plate 1121c, and the third plate 1121d form a mounting groove 1121a inside. The first plate 1121b and the third plate 1121d are arranged opposite to each other to form the side walls of the mounting groove 1121a. The first plate 1121b is located on the side of the overlapping portion 1121 closest to the support plate 1122 and is connected to the support plate 1122. The third plate 1121d is located on the side of the overlapping portion 1121 away from the support plate 1122. The second plate 1121c forms the bottom of the mounting groove 1121a. Exemplarily, the overlapping portion 1121 and the support plate 1122 are integrally formed to improve the overall structural strength of the carrying plate 112. When the limiting part 21 is inserted into the mounting slot 1121a through the mounting port, the limiting part 21 is located between the first plate 1121b and the second plate 1121c. The first plate 1121b and the second plate 1121c are used to restrict the movement of the limiting part 21 and prevent the limiting part 21 from leaving the mounting slot 1121a.

[0033] In some embodiments, see Figures 2-5 The frame box 10 also includes connecting rods 4, and multiple connecting rods 4 can be provided. In a first direction, multiple connecting rods 4 are arranged sequentially at intervals. In a second direction, the connecting rods 4 pass through at least two adjacent support components 11, and at least some of the connecting rods 4 are located within the interval space 5. Exemplarily, the connecting rods 4 extend along the second direction, which is perpendicular to the first direction and parallel to the horizontal direction. When the base frame 1 includes multiple support components 11, it can be configured to connect multiple counterweight components by sequentially passing multiple support components 11 through a connecting rod 4, or it can be configured to sequentially connect multiple support components 11 by providing multiple connecting rods 4, each connecting rod 4 connecting to an adjacent support component 11. In this embodiment, at least two adjacent support components 11 are connected by connecting rods 4, with at least a portion of the connecting rods 4 located within the spacing space 5. This connects at least two adjacent support components 11. When the base frame 1 partially bears an item, the weight of the item can be transferred to the connecting rods 4 through the support components 11, and then distributed to the adjacent support components 11 by the connecting rods 4. This avoids deformation of a single support component 11 due to local overload, thereby enhancing the load-bearing capacity of the frame box 10.

[0034] In some embodiments, the locking structure 3 is disposed on the connecting rod 4 and / or the support beam 111 of the support assembly 11. The connecting rod 4 and the support beam 111 have high structural strength. By disposing the locking structure 3 on the connecting rod 4 and / or the support beam 111, the reliability of the locking structure 3 can be improved, and the connecting rod 4 and / or the support beam 111 can be prevented from deforming or breaking when the locking structure 3 is subjected to the tension of the rope or the fixing rod. This ensures the stability of the locking device in fixing the items and improves the safety of transporting the frame box 10.

[0035] In some embodiments, see Figures 2-5 In the extending direction of the connecting rod 4, the support beams 111 at opposite ends of the support assembly 11 are provided with locking structures 3. For example, when the base frame 1 includes two support assemblies 11, the support beam 111 at one end of the support assembly 11 corresponds to the interval space 5, and the support beam 111 at the other end of the support assembly 11 corresponds to the edge of the frame box 10. When the base frame 1 includes three or more support assemblies 11, the support beam 111 at one end of the support assembly 11 located at the edge of the frame box 10 corresponds to the interval space 5, and the support beam 111 at the other end corresponds to the edge of the frame box 10. The support beams 111 at both ends of the support assembly 11 located in the middle of the frame box 10 respectively correspond to the interval space 5. This design makes it easier to connect the locking structure 3, which is fitted onto the support beams 111 at opposite ends of the support assembly 11, in the extending direction of the connecting rod 4. This allows the locking device to pass through the interval space 5 or the edge of the frame box 10 and connect to the carried item, improving the convenience of fixing the item using the locking device.

[0036] In some embodiments, see Figure 5 and Figure 8 The locking structure 3 includes a locking sleeve 31 and a retaining ring 32. The locking sleeve 31 is sleeved on the connecting rod 4 or the support beam 111. The locking sleeve 31 includes a fitting portion 311 and a connecting portion 312. The fitting portion 311 is bent so that it can be fitted onto the connecting rod 4 or the support beam 111. The connecting portion 312 abuts against the fitting portion 311 to surround the connecting rod 4 or the support beam 111 between the connecting portion 312 and the fitting portion 311. The connecting portion 312 and the fitting portion 311 are connected by fasteners to fix the locking structure 3 onto the connecting rod 4 or the support beam 111. The retaining ring 32 is configured as a ring structure and is connected to the locking sleeve 31. Exemplarily, the connection between the retaining ring 32 and the locking sleeve 31 can be a rotatable connection or a fixed connection. This design allows the locking structure 3 to be connected to the connecting rod 4 or the support beam 111 via the locking sleeve 31, preventing the locking structure 3 from shifting during transportation. The buckle 32 can be easily attached to the locking device, ensuring the connection stability between the locking device and the locking structure 3. In some embodiments, see Figure 4 and Figure 5The support assembly 11 includes a first support layer structure 113 and a second support layer structure 114 stacked together. The first support layer structure 113 includes multiple support beams 111 spaced apart in the horizontal direction. The second support layer structure 114 also includes multiple support beams 111 spaced apart in the horizontal direction. A connecting rod 4 passes between the first support layer structure 113 and the second support layer structure 114. The upper side of the connecting rod 4 abuts against the first support layer structure 113, and the lower side of the connecting rod 4 abuts against the second support layer structure 114. This design allows the first support layer structure 113 and the second support layer structure 114 to form a whole that bears the weight of the object. The load borne by the first support layer structure 113 can be transferred to the second support layer structure 114 and the adjacent support assembly 11 through the connecting rod 4, which helps to improve the load-bearing capacity of the support assembly 11.

[0037] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 7 The frame box 10 also includes a side frame 6, which is disposed at at least one end of the base frame 1 in a first direction. The side frame 6 can be erected or laid flat by rotating it. See also Figure 7 When the side frame 6 is erected, it can restrain the goods carried on the frame container 10, preventing them from falling out of the frame container 10. See also Figure 1 Laying the side frame 6 flat can reduce the space occupied by the side frame 6 in the height direction of the frame box 10, making it easier to stack multiple frame boxes 10, thereby reducing the space occupied by the frame box 10 in transportation.
