ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to the handling of freight in cargo containerization and arrangements for coupling containers and hoisting equipment, and particularly to a side latch interconnect apparatus and method for expediting the interaction of hoisting equipment with containers and making such equipment more reliable. More particularly, that which is disclosed is a handle for mounting on a container for use with a releasable latch mechanism having: an integral body including a substantially vertical member having an outwardly facing surface having a lower engagable portion having a lower engagement surface; the outwardly facing surface facing outwardly away from the substantially vertical member and including side target area for releasably receiving a portion of a latch mechanism from a side in a substantially inwardly direction with respect to the substantially vertical member defined by a recess; and the side target area being generally centrally located on the outwardly facing surface including a plurality of communicating boundaries, including: (i) an upper boundary defined by the lower engagement surface; (ii) a base section of the recess; and (iii) side boundaries defined by side sections, and the boundaries being located substantially within the substantially vertical member of the body, thereby facilitating handling from the side.
