Abstract: A cargo compartment of a cargo carrier is bounded by a pair of generally vertical walls which extend in the longitudinal direction of the cargo carrier. At least two pairs of confining members are pivotally mounted on these walls for movement between operative and inoperative positions. In the inoperative positions, the confining members are generally parallel to the walls of the cargo compartment and the latter is capable of accommodating bulk goods. In the operative positions, the cargo compartment is capable of receiving containers and the confining members of each pair extend generally normal to the longitudinal axis of the cargo carrier and are in alignment with one another. The two pairs of confining members may be spaced from one another by several container lengths in their operative positions.

Abstract: A temperable container with a heat-insulating jacket completely enclosing a tank supported in the container with predetermined passages between the tank and the jacket for conducting a heat transfer medium in forced circulation around the entire outer surface of the tank. An inlet and outlet pass through the jacket to connect to external equipment for supplying the heat transfer medium, and to avoid a short circuit flow from inlet to outlet a partition is provided in the container and has at least one throttleable bypass opening the throttle position of which can be adjusted by a programmable control.
