  • Patent number: 11690452
    Abstract: A lashing device includes: a base seat having a bottom wall, and two pivot lugs which cooperate with the bottom wall to define a pivot slot thereamong, and each of which is formed with an pivot hole communicating with the pivot slot; a pivot pin extending through the pivot hole of each of the pivot lugs; and an eye plate received in the pivot slot, and having a middle portion that is formed with a pivot hole provided for the pivot pin to movably extends therethrough, and first and second wing portions which are connected to opposite ends of the middle portion, respectively, and each of which has an elongated hole having an arc section. The arc axes of the arc sections of the elongated holes are aligned with the center axis of the pivot hole.

  • Patent number: 10472023
    Abstract: A lashing eye assembly includes amounting unit and an eye plate unit which includes two wing members and a bridge member. The wing members are angularly displaced from each other about an axle axis. Each of the wing members has a rim portion and a body portion which is formed with a lashing eye configured to couple a lower end of a lashing rod assembly. The bridge member has an outer interconnecting surface interconnecting outward regions of the rim portions of the wing members, and an inner interconnecting surface which extends in a circumferential direction about the axle axis to interconnect inward regions of the rim portions of the wing members.

  • Patent number: 9499237
    Abstract: A lashing rod assembly includes a lashing rod and a hook member. The lashing rod is displaceable between upper and lower positions. The hook member includes a weight segment, a power segment, a hook, and a flange. The weight segment is configured to extend into an inner space of a corner casting of a shipping container. The power segment extends into a through hole of the lashing rod. The hook is configured to be in abutting engagement with an inner surface of the corner casting when the lashing rod is displaced to the lower position. The flange has an interior fulcrum area configured to bear on a shoulder region of the through hole so as to permit the weight segment to be angularly movable during downward displacement of the lashing rod.

  • Patent number: 7422400
    Abstract: A fastener for securing a cargo container includes a hollow connector, a first pull rod, a second pull rod and an elastic element. The hollow connector includes first and second members provided with first and second bores, respectively, and a receiving cavity between the first and second end members. The first pull rod extends through the first bore into the cavity, while the second pull rod extends through the second bore into the cavity and has a retaining head attached thereto. The elastic element is disposed around the second pull rod between the second end member and the retaining head for biasing the retaining head to move away from the second end member. The receiving cavity is open to expose the elastic element and the retaining head. The fastener may further include a limiting unit to prevent distorted movement of, and a pressure-equalizing member to evenly distribute pressure on, the elastic element.
