ABSTRACT:
Fixtures supportable in a containerized unit for compartmentalizing the container into predetermined areas for storage and shipment of non-stackable articles at one or more levels within the container. A series of vertical support hangers are releasably connected to a longitudinally-extending horizontal top ledge within the container at opposite sides at predetermined spaced longitudinal intervals such that all the vertical load is supported by the ledge. Each of the vertical support hangers is provided with a releasable ledge-engaging C-clamp for gripping the ledge and a series of vertically-spaced pairs of slots for supporting horizontal support beams at predetermined levels by opposite vertical support hangers. Beam supporting connectors are positioned to support planar decking on the horizontal support beams at predetermined levels for compartmentalizing the interior of the container depending upon the article to be stored and shipped. Additional vertical hangers are placed over a link member of the corner support to prevent the link member from coming off the top rail and also to provide extra support for cargo in conjunction with support rails and the opposite side vertical hanger. The shape and cross-section of the corner supports are such that only limited column support can be obtained from the corner support, hence, the additional vertical hangers at the beginning and the end of the container. The various fixtures: corner support members, vertical support hangers, horizontal support beams and planar decking, may be readily disassembled and repeatedly reusable permitting container use devoid of any fixtures.
