ABSTRACT:
A housing for a generator unit which is for mounting on a freight container unit is provided where the identical housing may be mounted on the container on a clip-on fashion or on a chassis supporting the container in an underslung fashion. The provided housing generally comprises: a substantially rigid frame having a horizontal member of a length equal to the width of the front face of the container, and at least two vertical posts integrally connected to the horizontal member; two fitting means extending outward from the vertical posts to engage the corner castings of the container so as to permit the housing to be hung from the container; at least two horizontal force clamps connected to the vertical posts for engaging the corner posts of the container so as to substantially remove horizontal forces from the housing when it is hung from the container, at least a portion of the clamps being capable of being extended in a manner perpendicular to the horizontal member beyond the corner posts and of being rotated so as to permit engagement by the clamps with the back side of the corner posts; and at least two foldable attachment arms which are supported by the rigid frame, the arms being folded inside the housing when the generator unit is in its clip-on mode, and the arms being capable of being extended so as to perpendicularly engage the bottom parallel beam supports of the chassis and clamp thereto in the underslung mode.
