<p>614046 Container which has a non-deployed configuration in which it can be picked up, manipulated or secured and which in its deployed configuration forms an autonomous floating structure particularly for fighting an accidental oil spill. The container has fittings for holding, handling and fixing the container, each fitting (12) being placed at a corner of the container in a non-deployed configuration of the container. In the non-deployed configuration, the container is constituted by a stack of at least three boxes (1-3), at least one of the boxes (1-3) being placed between and at least partly in contact with two others of the boxes (1-3). At least some of the boxes (1-3) are connected to each other to form a rigid structure, and at least part of the container is watertight. In the non-deployed configuration the boxes (1-3) are at least partly in contact with each other and the container forms a parallelepiped (8). The cumulative percentage of empty spaces (9, 10, 11) between the boxes (1-3) and the parallelepiped (8) is between 0.1 % and 15% of the interior volume of the parallelepiped (8). At least some of said boxes (1-3) are mobile between said non-deployed configuration and a deployed configuration in which a maximized loading area is greater than at least twice the area of the container in its non-deployed configuration.</p> |
