ABSTRACT:
A pair of flexible, load distributing, front cross members, a rear frame, and a rear bulkhead mounted on the rear frame, mount and securely retain a flexible bag as a liner within a freight container, truck trailer or the like, to adapt the container for bulk cargo transport. The front cross members retain the front end of the liner bag in generally rectangular configuration and are secured at opposite ends to structural members of the container, thus supporting the front end of the bag against displacement and possible damage or rupture, and transmitting the bag forces to the structural members. The rear frame and a curved bulkhead mounted thereon support the rear end of the bag and similarly prevent its rupture or collapse during loading and tilt-unloading. The laterally curved rear bulkhead also acts as a funnel to completely evacuate the bag contents during tilt-unloading through an opening therethrough. The arrangement is inexpensive and easy to install and, although all of its components may be disposed of after a single use, at least the cross members and the frame components can be reused.
