  • THIS Invention relates to a container tilting apparatus and method.
  • a standard shipping container has doors at its rear end through which it can be loaded and unloaded. If the container is at a normal, horizontal attitude, it is virtually impossible to fill it completely with loose material which is not stackabJe.

  • the apparatus 10 includes a base 12 seen in plan view in Figure 8.
  • the base 12 has a base frame 14 including longitudinally extending members 14.1 connected to one another by laterally extending beams 14.2 and supports laterally spaced apart tracks 16 with entry and exit ramps 18 and 20 respectively.
  • the tracks 16 are able to move towards and apart from one another on slides 22 but are constrained to maintain a parallel relationship by a parallel linkage 24. If the tracks are moved apart from another compression coil springs 26 urge them to return to their original positions.
  • the apparatus In operation the apparatus is positioned with its base 12 resting on a supporting surface 13, typically the ground, a concrete slab, road or the like which may or may not be horizontal.
  • each of the longitudinally extending members 14.1 of the base 12 are three upright, hydrauNc levelling jacks 15. These jacks can be operated independently in order to level the base 12 at the required horizontal orientation. This is shown in Figure 5, which illustrates how the base can be positioned at a horizontal orientation on a supporting surface 13 which is not horizontal. It wHI be understood that the ramps 18, 20 wiH typically be connected in a pivotable manner to the ends of the beams 14.1 or the tracks 16.
  • Figure 1 also shows a horse 30 towing a trailer 32 on which an empty container 34 is mounted.
  • the container 34 is a shipping container with standard dimensions. In the illustrated case, the container may for example have a standard length of, say, 20 feet (6.1m).
  • the container is locked to the flat bed of the trailer using conventional trailer locks (not shown) which engage in standard lock openings in the underside of the container.
  • Figure 2 illustrates the position of the horse, trailer and container when the container reaches a loading zone. At this position, the wheels 36 of the trailer are located on the tracks 16 between the ramps 18, 20.
  • Figure 8 shows angled lead-in deflectors 40 which will deflect the wheels of the trailer towards a central position as they move onto the tracks 16.
  • Inwardly projecting guides 42 are supported on the longitudinal members 14.1 of the base 12 to provide further guidance to the trailer wheels as they move forward on the tracks.
  • the guides 42 are interchangeable with guides of greater or smaller width. In practice, an operator will determine which guides are suitable for a particular trailer, and will install the appropriate guides prior to commencement of the loading operation. As the trailer moves on the ramp its wheels wiH move against the guides 42 and possibly urge them outwardly.
  • the base 12 supports a container handling means indicated generally by the numeral 44.
  • This includes, on each side of the base, an upstanding frame 46 to which an elongate tilt arm 48 is pivoted at a pivot point SO.
  • a double-acting hydraulic ram 52 acts between a point 54 on the frame 46 and a point 56 on the tilt arm spaced longitudinally from the pivot point 50.
  • the container is located between the tilt arms when in the loading zone seen in Figure 2.
  • Each tilt arm 48 carries front and rear container locking devices 58 and 60 respectively.
  • a front container locking device 58 includes a cranked member 62 pivoted to the front end 64 of the associated tilt arm 48 at a vertical pivot point 66.
  • An hydrauKc ram 68 acts between the tilt arm and an outer end of the cranked member 62.
  • An inner end of the cranked member 62 carries a container lock 70 including a locking pin 72.
  • the rams 52 are actuated to tower the front ends of the tilt arms 48 in order to align the locking pins 72 horizontally with the standard, front-facing container lock openings provided in the ends of the container.
  • the rams 68 are actuated to pivot the cranked members 62 about the pivot points 66 and thereby move the locking pins rearward ly in an arc into the lock openings.
  • the locking pin 72 of each container lock is tapered at its leading end which can enter the standard container lock opening and is moveable in a hole in the cranked member 62 between a projecting position wherein it projects from the hole and a retracted position wherein it is retracted deeper into the hole.
  • the locking pin 72 is spring loaded so that it is urged into its projecting position. In the locking process the locking pin 72 win be pushed back into the hole in the cracked member by the end of the container until it is moved into alignment with the container lock opening, whereafter the spring will urge its tapered end into the opening to lock the container lock to the container.
  • Both pins 110 and 112 have oblong heads 114 at their leading ends that can enter the standard oblong container lock openings when correctly orientated. Both pins have smooth elongate bodies 116 extending through holes in the cranked members 62. In both embodiments, the pin 110, 112 is slidable along the hole in the member 62 so that it is movable forwards and rearwards in the hole between a position wherein its head 114 is located inside the container opening and a position wherein its head is removed from the container opening.
  • the pin 110, 112 is rotatable inside the hole between an aligned orientation wherein its head is allowed to pass into and out of the container opening and a non-aligned orientation wherein its head is obstructed from moving into and out of the container opening to lock it in the opening. in use, both of the pins 110, 112 are moved forwards and rearwards and rotated manually by means of a handle 118. However, the pins 110 and 112 have different locking means for locking them in their, non-aligned orientation.
  • the pin 110 has a longitudinally extending recess 120 interacting with a ball and spring mechanism 122 to lock the pin in either the aligned or non-alligned orientation.
  • the ball is urged towards the pin 110 by the spring so that it is automatically received in the recess 120 when the recess is aligned with the ball and springs through rotation of the pin.
  • the pin 112 it is secured in its non-aligned orientation by means of a threaded bar 124 located in a threaded hole in the cranked member 62.
  • the threaded bar 124 is simply rotated until it engages the pin 110, thereby frictionally locking the pin in its non-aKgned orientation.
  • the cranked member 62 carries a guide 126 for engaging the corner of the container and pushing it and the trailer on which it is mounted towards the centre of the base.
  • each of the container locks carries a guide 126 thereby ensuring that the container may be pushed forwards, backwards and sideways to align it in the centre of the base when the container locks engage the container end wals.
  • FIG 10 further shows a detail view of a rear container locking device 60 in perspective view.
  • the cranked member 62 carries a stabiliser 128, in the form of a triangular plate welded onto the cranked member, to prevent the tilt amis 48 from twisting inwardly under severe weight.
  • the plate 128 is positioned on the cranked member 62 so that there is typically a 5mm gap between the plate and the sidewall of the container when the rear container locking device 60 is locked to the container end wall.
  • the plates 128 are only shown on the rear locking devices 60 ( Figure 10), the front locking devices 58 may also carry plates 128.
  • the horse 30 can be uncoupled from the trailer 32 and can be driven forward ly away from the apparatus 10 as shown in Figure 3.
  • the hydraulic rams 52 are actuated to raise the front ends of the tilt arms and to lower the rear ends thereof such that the rear container locking devices 60 are positioned correctly with respect to the standard container lock openings at the rear end of the container 34.
  • the rear container locking devices 60 operate in the same way as the front locking devices 58. Operation of the devices 60 effectively locks the rear ends of the tilt arms relative to the rear end of the container 34. This is shown in Figure 4.
  • the hydraulic rams 52 are independently operable so that the arms 48 may be raised and lowered independently of one other. This is an important feature that allows quick an easy engagement of the container locking devices 58, 60 with the container openings in the end walls of the container, particularly when the trailer is not level. This could be as a result of different wheel sizes on the trafler or as a result of the base 12 being located on an uneven supporting surface without the use of the levelling jacks 15, for example.
  • the twist locks in the front holding the container on the trailer are unlocked after the front locking devices have been locked to the container and the same for the rear container locking devices. It must be understood that the same process of locking the front and rear container locking devices 58 and 60 as described above is used. The only difference is that this process is carried out whUe the horse is stiH connected to the trailer. With both the twist locks in the front and rear being unlocked and the container locking devices 58, 60 locked to the container 34, the horse 30 with the trailer 32 in tow can be driven away from the apparatus.
  • the numeral 100 in the drawings indicates the fbrwardly projecting front hitch of the trailer which forms part of a standard fifth wheel coupling.
  • the geometry of the apparatus is such that the front extremity of the container, and the locking devices 58, as weR as the tch 100, can move downwardly between the tracks 16 of the base.
  • the levelling Jacks 15 are extended sufficiently, prior to tilting, to raise the base 12 high enough above the supporting surface 13 to a How the hitch 100, which forms the front extremity of the trailer/container combination, to move downwardly between the tracks 16 without contacting the supporting surface during tilting.
  • the levelling jack 15 could be excluded from the apparatus.
  • a pit instead of raising the base 12 by extending the jacks 15, a pit could be dug in the supporting surface 13 to allow the hitch 100 to move downwardly between the tracks 16 without contacting the supporting surface during tilting.
  • a standard shipping container such as the container 34, has lockable rear doors which normally close a loading opening at the rear end of the container.
  • these rear doors are unlocked and swung open manually while the empty container is at the horizontal transportation orientation, i.e. before the container is tilted upright to the Figure 6 orientation.
  • FIG. 6 diagrammaticaHy illustrates a door 70 which has been swung from an open position to an intermediate, upright orientation by the action of the associated door closer.
  • the horse 30 can be reversed back to the appropriate position for the container locking devices 58 and 60 to be released and for the trailer to be coupled to the horse once more.
  • the horse can now be driven forward ty, away from the apparatus, with the trailer and container mounted thereon in tow. It is envisaged that the horse with the trailer hitched thereto may be reversed out of the apparatus where there is limited space which prevents the horse from being driven away from the apparatus forward ly.
  • Figures 1 to 6 illustrated an elevated bridge 80 having laterally spaced, vertical columns 82 on either side of the apparatus and a horizontal walkway 84 spanning between the columns.
  • the walkway provides an operator 86 with an elevated control position from which the operations described above can be carried out
  • the operator may for example have an hydraulic control panel for operation of the various hydraulic rams.
  • an operator on the walkway wiH have a bird's eye view of the loading operation as it progresses, if, for example, a loose piece of material should fail to faB property into the container during loading, and perhaps lodge in a door hinge with the possibility of obstructing proper door closure after loading, the operator will be able to manipulate the offending piece out of the way using a pole 88.
  • the operator From his elevated position above the rear end of the container the operator is also able to control the closing of the doors 70 by controlling the operation of the door closers 102. After the doors have been closed, the operator can walk from the walkway onto the closed doors in order to lock them. After the operator has returned to the walkway, the container can be returned to the horizontal, transportation orientation.
  • Another advantage of the apparatus according to the invention is the ability of an operator to control the loading operation, and the closure and locking of the rear doors, from an elevated position on the walkway 84.
  • the apparatus includes robust wheels 90 which are, when not in use, mounted to the base 12 in non-obstructing positions. If it should be necessary for any reason to move the apparatus to another location, for example to facilitate container loading from a different stockpile of loose material, the wheels are detached from the base and the levelling jacks 15 are actuated to lift the base above the supporting surface 13. The wheels are now reconnected to the base in operational positions on the beams 14.2. In these positions, seen in Figure 9, the wheels project below the underside of the frame. The jacks 15 can now be actuated to tower the base onto the wheels. The apparatus 10 is now supported entirely on the wheels and can be wheeled, for example by a towing vehicle, to a different location.

  • an excavator or other piece of lifting equipment may be used to pick it up and transport it to its new location.
  • the container stays locked to the trailer at all times will, it is believed, considerably shorten and facilitate the container loading operation. Also, the fact that the base is designed to ensure automatic centralisation of the trailer and container avoids the necessity for repetitive forward and backward movements of the towing horse in order to align the container property for engagement by the tilt arms.

  • entry of the trailer wheels between the guides 42 can urge them apart against the action of the biasing means, with the parallelogram linkages ensuring that the tracks stay parallel to one another and that the trailer is centralised.
  • An advantage of the modified base structure just described is the fact that the area between the tracks is largely vacant, because the parallelogram linkages are now located outside the tracks.
