ABSTRACT:
The train of containers is intended for a plant for pneumatic transportation of goods through a tube, wherein the containers are interconnected by means of spherical joints.
On the end face of the leading or foremost container in the direction of the travel of the train there is mounted a front flap spanning the lower half of the gap between the container and the tube, whereas the end face of the trailing or tailmost container carries thereon a tail flap spanning the upper half of the same gap, the lateral sides of each container having mounted thereon side flaps acting as plain bearings and being adapted to travel along guideways mounted on the internal side wall of the tube. The opposing adjacent end faces of each pair of containers have mounted thereon bridging pieces engaging each other by their end faces having conjugating spherical surfaces having for their geometrical center the center of the spherical joint, the bridging pieces being adapted to close off the gaps between adjacent containers in the train.
