220100600 | Including inner bag liner | 10 |
20080237226 | Thermal insulation liner - A method for thermally insulating a container with a thermally reflective liner. | 10-02-2008 |
20080296295 | METHOD FOR FILLING AND EMPTYING TRANSPORT CONTAINERS WITH PLASTICS GRANULAR MATERIAL - A method for the filling and optionally emptying transport containers with plastics granular materials is disclosed. A flexible plastics inliner is inserted into a transport container. A front side of the inliner includes at least one receiving flexible hose connection for filling the inliner with plastics granular material, at least one discharge hose connection for discharging blown in conveying air from the inliner, and at least one emptying hose connection for emptying plastics granular material from the inliner. The front side of the inliner also includes a protective liner. The cabin and the transport container are positioned at a decanting station, the cabin being adapted to transfer plastics granular material from the decanting station and decant the transferred plastics granular material into the transport container through the receiving hose connection. The transport container is then filled with plastics granular material utilizing the cabin. | 12-04-2008 |
20090277900 | Container for storage and transport of liquids - A generally cuboid shaped container for storage or transport of bulk liquids including a textile bag having four side walls and a bottom face, all made of woven fabric, a frame attached to the bag and comprising a plurality of hoops, each hoop subtending a different vertically aligned corner of the bag; means retaining the hoops to the walls; and a collapsible bladder housed within the bag and sized and shaped such that a filled bladder substantially fills the bag. The frame has rigid members linking the top of each hoop to the tops of the other hoops to prevent the hoop tops from spreading apart from each other. | 11-12-2009 |
20100122981 | SHIPPING CONTAINER SYSTEMS - The application relates to shipping container systems that include a large multi-layered flexible container (“flexitank”) disposed inside a large rigid shipping container which has an open end with one or more doors capable of an open or closed position, and further including one or more bulkhead assemblies, one of the bulkhead assemblies interposed between the flexitank and the open end of the rigid container and/or the doors. In at least one specific embodiment, the bulkhead assembly includes a first brace disposed vertically along a portion of the first side wall inner surface; a second brace disposed vertically along a portion of the second side wall inner surface; and a bulkhead panel member extending horizontally between the first brace and the second brace. In other embodiments, bulkhead assemblies may utilize generally curved or “swept” bulkhead bars, which do not require vertical braces. | 05-20-2010 |
20100200579 | PALLET CONTAINER - A pallet container for the storage and transport of liquid or free-flowing goods, includes a thin-walled inner container of thermoplastic material, a tubular lattice frame closely surrounding the inner plastic container in the form of a support jacket, and a bottom pallet upon which the inner plastic container rests and with which the tubular lattice frame is securely fixed. The inner plastic container includes for withdrawal of liquid goods at the lower side, approximately in mid-section in a side wall near its bottom a blown, calibrated tubular pipe for allowing attachment of a closeable discharge fitting which is fixedly welded with its tubular housing to the calibrated tubular pipe of the inner container. | 08-12-2010 |
20100270297 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR HERMETIC STORAGE OF AGRICULTURAL COMMODITIES DURING SHIPPING - Systems and methods for protected transportation of agricultural commodities to preserve quality and prevent moisture damage of the commodities due to increase in moisture content or to condensation during shipping in containers are provided. The protected transportation is accomplished through the use of a thin, lightweight hermetic liner inside a shipping container. The liner is sealed at a first end and open at a second end, and the liner is positioned within the shipping container with the sealed first end at a back end of the shipping container and the second open end at a front, open end of the shipping container. A top portion of the liner is held to the ceiling of the shipping container via an attachment mechanism or via inflation of the liner and/or ribs in the liner. The bagged or bulk commodity is introduced through the open end and into the liner. The liner is then hermetically sealed, and the container is closed. After shipping, the agricultural commodity may be removed by unsealing the liner. | 10-28-2010 |
20100314386 | COLLAPSIBLE LIQUID TANK - A collapsible liquid storage tank for use in a freight container for selectively carrying solid freight and bulk liquid freight includes a substantially rigid gantry having a plurality of support posts, a first frame, a second frame suspended from the gantry, a substantially inelastic flexible fabric container having sidewalls connected between the first frame and the second frame, a water impermeable elastic bladder disposed within the fabric container, and a hoist coupled between the gantry and the second frame for lifting the second frame towards the first frame. | 12-16-2010 |
20120132650 | Collapsible Liquid Tank - A collapsible liquid storage tank for use in a freight container for selectively carrying solid freight and bulk liquid freight includes a substantially rigid gantry having a plurality of support posts, a first frame, a second frame suspended from the gantry, a substantially inelastic flexible fabric container having sidewalls connected between the first frame and the second frame, a liquid impermeable elastic bladder disposed within the fabric container and having seals along flat surfaces of the elastic bladder, a centrally positioned outlet, and a hoist coupled between the gantry and the second frame for lifting the second frame towards the first frame. | 05-31-2012 |
20140097182 | INTERMODAL CONTAINER HAVING A RESILIENT LINER - An intermodal container is modified to carry a fracing proppant such as sand from a quarry or source to the frac site. An upper hatch is formed at the top of the intermodal container and a lower hatch is formed in the bottom of the intermodal container. Hydraulically operating sliding gates are placed under the top and bottom hatches. A resilient liner having a bladder extends from the upper hatch to the lower hatch. The bladder expands during loading to receive the proppant therein and contracts when unloading to expel the proppant from the intermodal container. | 04-10-2014 |
