Abstract: The present disclosure describes a freight container for air transportation purposes having a bottom panel and arranged thereon a support frame that features sections projecting from the bottom panel and transverse sections connecting the projecting sections, and also features planking that at least partly fills-in the frame and is fitted to flanges on the sections, the sections being interconnected at nodal points in the supporting frame, at least in part, by gusset-plates, in which, the gusset-plates are flat and are secured to flanges on the sections, the flanges being in-line with a section wall, extending it outwards beyond a hollow part of the section.

Abstract: A freight container for air transport has a support frame which is arranged on a baseplate, sections rising from the baseplate and transverse sections, connecting these, for a container roof, sheeting which at least partially fills in the support frame. One side of the freight container is provided with a loading opening, immediately adjoining the lateral loading opening, there is a gap in the container roof and this gap can be closed by a pivotable or displaceable portion of the container roof.

Abstract: A container for transporting goods in the form of packages, bundles or the like having a floor, walls, roof and at least one door which can be locked, is improved such that it can be stored without problem, is spaced-saving when transported empty and light in weight, and allows individual parts to be readily replaced, while at the same time being economical to manufacture.The container has its floor and roof joined at a distance from each other by vertical corner posts to which stable, rigid sidewalls are also attached such that the corner posts are releasably joined to the floor and roof of the container by cube-like corner pieces. Instead of or in addition to the foregoing design, at least one of the walls feature at least one deep-drawn metal sheet or panel in which stiffening areas are provided, delimited by a peripheral region in the sheet and/or ribs extending from the edge regions.
