  • Patent number: 8117670
    Abstract: A container has a variable volume, wherein a basic container has a bottom panel and a roof panel. One or more hinged side panels are rotatable about a horizontal axis, and one or more expansion elements are telescopable out of the basic container and have a bottom panel, a side open toward a front the basic container and a front panel opposite the open side. Each expansion element is open toward the top and, in a telescoped state, the roof panel is formed by a raised side panel of the basic container. One or more hoisting devices is associated with each expansion element and with which the expansion element is lowerable.

  • Patent number: 7918053
    Abstract: A basic container has at least one expansion element which can be moved out of the basic container. A lifting device permits lowering of the expansion element such that, after the expansion element has been moved out of the basic container, the floor wall of the expansion element and the basic container are situated at the same level. An expansion element can be lifted such that, after the lowering, the expansion element can be moved back into the basic container. The lifting device is active between the folded-open side wall and the expansion element.

  • Patent number: 7770590
    Abstract: A housing has an expansion tent connectable thereto. A bag-shaped cover is present, and has an opening permanently connected to the housing. The cover forms the interior surface of the erected expansion tent, and is suitable for hermetically sealing off the interior of the housing and the expansion tent with respect to the environment. Sealing can be provided during all operating conditions, while erecting the tent, and while dismantling the tent.

  • Patent number: 7658037
    Abstract: A container is constructed to have a variable volume, wherein a basic container has a bottom panel and a roof panel, one or more hinged side panels are rotateable about a horizontal axis, and one or more expansion elements are telescopeable out of the basic container and having a bottom panel, a side open toward a front the basic container and a front panel opposite the open side. The one expansion element(s) is/are open toward the top and, in a telescoped state, the roof panel is formed by a raised side panel of the basic container. One or more hoisting devices is associated with each expansion element and with which the expansion element is lowerable. Thereby, after the one or more expansion elements are telescoped out, the bottom panels of the expansion element(s) and of the basic container are at the same height and also so that the expansion element(s) is insertable back into the basic container after being lowered.

  • Patent number: 7584863
    Abstract: A container according to ISO standards as a mobile workspace in civilian and military use comprising a cuboid metal frame of ISO corners and edge profiles connecting these ISO corners as well as thermally insulated side walls, ceiling and floor. The edge profiles are designed in two parts and the two partial profiles of an edge profile run parallel to one another and the intermediate space between the two profiles is filled completely by a thermally insulating material, with the side walls, ceiling and floor having a vacuum insulation layer.

  • Patent number: 7000795
    Abstract: The invention relates to a container, in particular as a work room, with variable volume, having a basic container with a bottom wall and a roof wall, at least one expansion element, which can be moved out of the basic container and which exhibits a bottom wall, a side that is open in the direction of the basic container, as well as a front wall opposite the open side, and a device, with which the expansion element can be lowered and lifted. The basic container exhibits at least one hinged side wall and the expansion element is open at the top. In the moved-out state a roof wall of the expansion element is formed by the side wall that is opened up on hinges and belongs to the basic container.

  • Patent number: 6954003
    Abstract: A mobile, self-sufficient operating assembly for providing electrical energy which includes two internal-combustion engines (21, 23) as well as two generators (22, 24). The internal-combustion engines (21, 23) and the generators (22, 24) being mutually connected by way of a transmission gearing (20) having several shifting clutches (4, 4?, 5, 5?). Electrical control devices control the shifting clutches (4, 4?, 5, 5?) of the transmission gearing (20) whereby optionally each of the two internal-combustion engines (21, 23) or both internal-combustion engines (21, 23) together can drive each of the two generators (22, 24) or both generators (22, 24) together.
