摘要:
A cargo container is modified to carry a fracing proppant such as sand from a quarry or source to the frac site. Openings are cut in the top and bottom of a cargo container and hydraulically operated sliding doors are placed there under. A hopper module with the walls being inclined to approximately the angle of repose for the proppant is installed inside the cargo container. The hopper module is sealed inside the cargo container so that a proppant enters through the top opening at the quarry and flows out through the bottom opening at the fracing site.

A container is constructed to carry granular material from a quarry or source to the frac site. An open frame the size of a standard cargo container is constructed. An enclosed hopper is formed using flat sheet metal with bolted together perpendicular edges. The hopper is set within, and attached to, the frame. Top hatches provide for loading the hopper, and a lower sliding gate in a bottom opening provides for unloading the hopper. The bottom of the hopper is at an angle slightly above the angle of repose of the granular material carried therein.

A frame rack system for the transportation, storage and inventory of commodities using intermodal open and closed frame racks configured to be compatible with ISO shipping container conventions. The open framed rack is preloaded and secured for transport or staging by yard personnel from a ground level position. ISO compatible corner pin blocks and forklift pockets allow for flexibility in handling loads at departure and destination. Material handling equipment compatibility allows for materials to be shipped and stored at unimproved sites. Tie-down rings allow for many options in securing loads. The stackability of units provides for an overall working deck height of less than 6 feet. Closed framed racks fit over the open frame racks to allow for multiple decks. Color-coded identifiers and identification codes facilitate storage and inventory. The present invention offers a simple, identifiable, contents-protected, multi-modal logistical solution, incorporating a “One Man One Machine” philosophy.

摘要:
A container comprising a frame conforming to ISO intermodal container dimensions, a hopper attached within the frame; the hopper defining a chute having a first opening and a second opening, at least one door pivotally attached to the hopper proximal to the second opening; at least one gate assembly attached to the at least one door; a connector apparatus panel mounted to the frame; and at least one actuating fluid or electrical line connected between the at least one gate and the connector apparatus panel. An alternative embodiment includes at least one air tank connected to the container and filled through an air transfer system and a plunger system to cause actuation of container doors for releasing of materials into a second receptacle and where the air transfer and plunger systems reside partially on a rough terrain container handler vehicle.
