English term or phrase: twistlock
In addition to our standard load pin based system, we can also provide an annular load cell arrangement where they are placed around the twistlock assembly, or utilise the twistlock to turn it into a load measurement device in its own right.

The interface module has a linearisation facility to allow for the calibration of the system when installed to achieve optimal accuracy. Data is then output to a ruggedised 8" tablet that displays the load on each twistlock and the percentage of the total weight, as well as the total weight on all four twistlocks.

Mulțumesc.

Wikipedia - Lashing systems[edit]

Twist-locks and lashing rods (pictured) are widely used to secure containers aboard ships.
Numerous systems are used to secure containers aboard ships, depending on factors such as the type of ship, the type of container, and the location of the container.[34][35] Stowage inside the holds of fully cellular (FC) ships is simplest, typically using simple metal forms called container guides, locating cones, and anti-rack spacers to lock the containers together.[36] Above-decks, without the extra support of the cell guides, more complicated equipment is used.[34] Three types of systems are currently in wide use: lashing systems, locking systems, and buttress systems.[34] Lashing systems secure containers to the ship using devices made from wire rope, rigid rods, or chains and devices to tension the lashings, such as turnbuckles.[34] The effectiveness of lashings is increased by securing containers to each other, either by simple metal forms (such as stacking cones) or more complicated devices such as twist-lock stackers.[34] A typical twist-lock is inserted into the casting hole of one container and rotated to hold it in place, then another container is lowered on top of it.[37] The two containers are locked together by twisting the device's handle.[37] A typical twist-lock is constructed of forged steel and ductile iron and has a shear strength of 48 metric tons.

Aceste dispozitive de fixare sunt de diferite dimensiuni în funcție de dimensiunile containerului. Cred că cele mai uzuale sunt acestea:
The most common dimensions for a 20-foot (6.1 m) container are 20 feet (6.1 m) long, 8 feet (2.44 m) wide, and 8 feet 6 inches (2.59 m) high, for a volume of 1,360 cubic feet (39 m3).

zăvor fixare containere intermodale


Explanation:
Containerele standardizate pentru marfă se transportă în mai multe moduri: pe uscat, pe mare, aerian. Oricare ar fi modul de transport, sistemele de fixare trebuie să asigure rigiditatea stivei de containere, fixarea containerelor. Această fixare rigidă se face pe toate colțurile containerelor, cu zăvoare simple, dar rezistente și sigure: răsucește și blochează. Chiar așa se și procedează la blocarea zăvorului: se rotește la 90 de grade un dispozitiv tată, într-un dispozitiv mamă, cu un mîner și se blochează.
