FIELD: transportation.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to the field of transportation, transshipment and storage of bulk and loose cargoes, bulk cargoes weighing not more than 15 tons, including food (grain) cargoes and certain hazardous cargoes according to UN classification, such as lump sulphur, ammonium nitrate, coal pitch, etc. Soft container for transportation and storage of bulk cargoes contains a frame mesh, an insert located in the frame mesh and made of fabric with a polymer coating. Insert has a loading sleeve in its upper part and an unloading sleeve in its bottom part. Insert is equipped with garter loops sewn along the insert circumference in its upper part and attached to the frame mesh by means of their connection with the frame mesh loops. In the bottom part of the frame mesh there is a rim element made of power tapes sewn together. Valves of triangular shape are fixed on the rim element and form a locking knot. At the end of each valve there is a loop, into which a metal ring is threaded. Locking knot comprises a cord tie with loops at the ends, which is passed through the valve rings for tightening the valves, and a locking pin. One of the valve rings is the base ring and consists of two rings forming two tiers connected to each other by four webs. Loop of the valve and one of the loops of the cord tie are attached to the upper tier of the base ring adjacent to the bottom of the soft container. Locking pin has a circular part on one of its ends and its rod end is threaded into another loop of the cord tie, which is passed through the hole of the base ring.

EFFECT: reduced time for loading and unloading operations, increased reliability, maximum safety of cargo due to exclusion of loaded material spillage, as well as increased strength of container structure.
