Date Feb. 29, 1996Coupling piece for the detachable connection of corner fittings of containers stacked one above the other on board ships. Work to reduce the manual effort involved in coupling together the containers, often semi-automatically. The satisfactory operation of such coupling pieces depends essentially upon the observance of various operating specifics. If this is not done, malfunctions will result. The coupling piece according to the invention is intended to be able to be operated in a simple and error-free manner in order to avoid such malfunctions. To this end, an actuating device (22) for twisting the locking bolt (21) displaying crossbolts (32, 33) for connecting the containers is provided with a rope (49) displaying two pull cords (57, 58), which rope is connected centrally to the locking bolt (21). As a result of the two pull cords (57, 58), it is possible to twist the locking bolt (21) both clockwise and anti-clockwise. In this way, on the one hand, operating errors are able to be wiped out, on the other hand the coupling piece is able to be disposed with both the upper and lower crossbolt (32) between the containers to be connected. Finally, it is also possible to detach the connection of the containers in a targeted manner, so that, according to choice, the coupling piece remains situated on the lower container or can be raised with the upper container from the lower container. |
