PCT No. PCT/EP95/03072 Sec. 371 Date Apr. 9, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Apr. 9, 1997 PCT Filed Aug. 2, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO96/06027 PCT Pub. Date Feb. 29, 1996The invention relates to a coupling piece for the detachable connection of corner fittings of adjacent containers, especially of containers stacked one above the other on board ships. In order to reduce the manual effort involved in coupling together containers, semi-automatic coupling pieces are known which only need to be manually attached to one container and pre-locked. A full locking after the containers have been placed one on top of the other is effected automatically. Coupling pieces of this type require however, in many respects, a complex automatic actuating mechanism. In order to simplify the automatic actuating mechanism, a plurality of stop faces (43, 44 and 45) are provided, which are offset to one another on the locking bolt (21) and which can be brought alternately into a corresponding position to a stop face (54) on a spring-loaded ram (23). The contact of a stop face (43, 44 or 45) of the locking bolt (21) against the stop face (54) of the spring-loaded ram (23) enables the locking bolt to be fixed simply and reliably in the respectively intended position of its crossbolts (32, 33).
