Abstract

1,113,549. Shipping container couplings. W. R. GRACE & CO. 17 March, 1967 [30 June, 1966], No. 12580/67. Heading B8H. A shipping container coupling which is suspended from a frame for lifting by a crane by a ring 7 has a lower portion 2 which is moved diagonally in an upper member 1 by a rod 13 so that the spacing between the couplings may be altered to correspond with the spaces between the corner pieces on different types of containers. The upper and lower portions are bolted together and the lower portion carries a shaft 5 with locking projections 6 which is rotated through 90 degrees by a rod 19 to lock the coupling in the corner piece 3. The rods 13, 19 may be hydraulically, pneumatically or electrically operated.
