摘要:
A large-capacity tank type container for which sufficient strength can be ensured and that is externally protectable and can efficiently transport polycarbonate resin pellets both by land and by sea. The container comprises a long-sized, lying-flat drum type tank body (3), and a square box-like container frame (5) surrounding the tank body, the tank body being provided at the upper front end with a charge pipe (20) and at the rear lower end with a discharge pipe (21) and being externally provided with an air feeder for feeding compressed air used to discharge polycarbonate resin pellets. These tank body, charge pipe, discharge pipe and air feeder are stored in a space surrounded by the container frame, and a locking metal fixture (6) is engageable with a locking mechanism on the deck (4) of a trailer.
摘要:
The present invention is intended to provide a large capacity tank type container which has a sufficient strength, which can be protected from outside, and which can efficiently transport polycarbonate resin pellets by land or by sea. The tank type container of the present invention comprises a long, horizontally placed, drum-shaped tank 3 and a parallelopiped container frame 5 surrounding the tank 3. The tank 3 is provided with a charging tube 20 at the top of the longitudinal front end, a discharging tube 21 at the bottom of the longitudinal back end, and, at the outside, an air-supplying apparatus for supplying compressed air into the tank to discharge polycarbonate resin pellets. The tank 3, the charging tube 20, the discharging tube 21 and the air-supplying apparatus are accommodated in a space surrounded by the container frame 5. The container frame 5 is provided with metal fitting members 6 for locking engagable with a locking mechanism possessed by the bed of a trailer. Therefore, the present tank type container is usable as a large-capacity container for land transportation and sea transportation, allowing for improved efficiency in transportation of polycarbonate resin pellets.
