Abstract
An air cooling equipment for cooling containers stacked in ships' holds comprises an upright column attached to a bulkhead or some other part of the ship's structure and provided with connections adapted to cooperate with corresponding connections provided on the containers in the stack for the supply of cold air and the withdrawal of exhaust air. The column is mounted in a manner which permits its horizontal displacement towards and away from the stack of containers. Each column connection is provided with a sealing ring which can be pressed on the cooperating connection of a container to create a tight seal.
