249 different boxes
"Those buoyancy boxes? A qualitative leap in the field of transportation and handling? Wang Jue obviously hasn't figured out how a space-saving expedient that he and a group of officers came up with on the fly has suddenly turned into a qualitative leap in the field of transportation and handling. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"When I was at the railway station, the train wagons that originally needed to be loaded and unloaded with materials, and once again because of the urgency of time, the buoyancy boxes were lifted directly from the flat wagons of the train by crane and stacked on the platform...... "Chen Zhaoming explained the reason for the incident to Wang Jue carefully.
It turned out that because the loading and unloading process was in a hurry, these buoyancy boxes, which had unloaded half of the internal grain, were temporarily lifted from the wagons with a crane. In this way, the station managers found a very convenient loading and unloading solution: as long as the crane is strong enough, then these buoyancy boxes can be lifted as a whole to complete the unloading task at one time.
As soon as these boxes are removed from the train, the flatbed train can leave the station without continuing to occupy valuable platform resources. You must know that there are many times when the time wasted on loading and unloading trains is a very headache, so the delay in the supply of materials is much more than people think.
And this new box can make the loading and unloading link become standardized and centralized, the past by manpower to load and unload the piecemeal materials, can now be directly hoisted by crane at the station, the speed does not know how many times.
On the other hand, as long as the materials are transported and stored in such boxes made in advance, then it is possible to make the goods wait for the train at the train freight station, instead of the train waiting for the goods. This is true for loading and unloading, so that valuable train resources can be used with maximum efficiency, so that the material turnover can achieve a qualitative leap.
After all, train resources are more precious, and making a train run at full capacity is the greatest issue to improve transportation efficiency. However, in the era when there is no computer control and no remote monitoring means, this great task is very difficult to achieve, so minimizing the time of each link is an important issue for everyone.
With this kind of box, the loading and unloading of trains has become simpler, except for the passenger car carrying people, other materials seem to be transported with this kind of box, which is a similar industry normative innovation for the entire transportation system. Because it only took a moment, Wang Jue thought of more and more things, and expanded to many fields.
"This thing can be used not only for railway transportation......" Wang Jue said casually, which made Chen Zhaoming's mouth suddenly open and suddenly brightened. This kind of box can be extended and become an important link in the entire transportation system! This is the meaning of this kind of box's existence in the future!
If all ships are allowed to use such boxes for loading, unloading and carrying...... Will the wharf with tight berths in the future be able to be used more efficiently? Even if only one-third of the ships use this kind of box for fast loading and unloading, the port's annual throughput will increase a lot, right?
In the same way, if the trucks were to carry such boxes, then at least in the case of heavy trucks, the transportation of the Ming Empire would be extremely fast: the boxes unloaded from the dock were loaded directly onto the train, then transported to the responding city train station, and then transferred to the transport car, directly to the place of delivery, and all this with almost no time spent changing means of transportation - what a huge step forward?
Unlike buoyancy boxes, this kind of box specially designed for transportation only needs to withstand the weight of the cargo inside itself when the crane lifts it. The cabinet can be designed to be thinner and the weight can also be designed to be lighter...... You don't need to do waterproofing, as long as you have anti-rust paint!
"That's right! It's not just the railroad that can be used, it's more convenient to transport this thing by sea! In the past, when loading and unloading a cargo ship, it took countless workers and cranes to carry it for a long time, and it was necessary to prepare various hoisting nets...... "Chen Zhaoming watched the loading and unloading of cargo ships in Tianjin Port, and the scene was so chaotic that it made people collapse.
Once the ship docks, dozens of stevedores get busy, moving bits and pieces of the ship and stacking large cargo in transport nets for crane lifting. However, it takes a lot of time to do so, and when the port is busy, it often takes a long time for this kind of hoisting and unloading to be able to get all the goods.
Now, if this equipment is used, tens of thousands of tons of goods can be loaded and unloaded using equipment such as cranes, which is faster than in the past with temporary nets. Although all this requires a certain cost of popularization, once it is popularized, the economic benefits brought by it are also immeasurable.
Of course, this type of cabinet has the advantage of making efficient use of space. In the past, goods were stacked indiscriminately in the hull of ships or in the wagons of trains, and because it took time to stack materials, a lot of irregular goods wasted a lot of space. If you want to ask why you don't stack them carefully and arrange the space utilization rate of materials reasonably, you have to start with the loading and unloading process.
In the process of loading and unloading, materials will be transferred from different means of transport, back and forth after a few tosses, who can be in the mood to neatly stack these items, and calculate the utilization rate of space? Taking a step back, wouldn't it be more lively if the cargo was unloaded from the ship and loaded into the truck compartment because of the different stacking sequences?
But with this kind of box is different, a lot of materials can be carefully stacked, saving more space, because as long as you carefully stack once, the container will not be opened again during the transportation process, so you can arrange the space more reasonably, and you can transport more goods.
"Great! This initiative allows us to ship more things, faster to those who need them. After Chen Zhaoming had Wang Jue's reminder, he clapped his hands and said excitedly: "This time, our military is going to offer a clever plan to the transportation industry of the entire empire!" ”
"Not busy! Not busy! Instead, keep it secret and keep it down! Wang Jue played his strategy on the side, for a soldier like him, with this kind of "new equipment" that is enough to improve the entire transportation industry, of course, the first thing is to think about using this advantage to yin those future enemies at once.
