    CONTAINER LOADING SYSTEM
    TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
    The invention disclosed herein generally relates to a container loading system. More particularly, the present invention relates to the container loading system for holding and loading of a filled container onto the conveyor belt assembly.
    BACKGROUND
    Container is an indispensable tool in many industries such as building industries and demolition industries for carrying and transporting variety of goods and loads from one location to another location. These containers can only be moved by truck and in rare cases by a chain in excavator. In case of soft surface or heavy loads, then it is impossible to move the container with anything other than a truck.
    In general, the container has two iron rollers at one end, hence the container can roll on through these rollers when the container lifted up in another end. The containers are quite large in size and are capable of weighing several thousands of pounds. These containers require a hoist like device with reeving elements in order to loading and unloading of containers from and onto a vehicle or storage compartments.
    Typically, when a container is filled, it must be replaced with an empty one. The filled container weigh many thousands of pounds and they needs to be replaced with the empty one. In order to replace the filled container, it should be lifted and positioned to the appropriate compartment or truck. For instance, a filling / loading station in a construction site with filled container, needs to be replaced with an empty container in order to fill the empty container with goods. If a truck comes to a construction site with the empty container, it unloads the empty container nearer to the filling / loading station situated with the filled container and loaded with the filled one.
    DK 2019 00445 A1
    Conventionally, various types of container loading and unloading systems and apparatuses are available such as hydraulically operable systems, pneumatically operable systems, magnetically operable systems, etc. Moreover, these available systems and apparatuses need a manual operation to fasten the container to the truck for loading and unfasten the container from the truck for unloading. Further, it is an energy intensive, time-consuming process and dangerous to the craftsmen in case of any manual errors, or if the truck heads backwards on the construction sites.
    In the light of above-mentioned problems, it is desirable to provide an efficient system for loading a filled container over a conveyor belt assembly situated either in storage area or in vehicles.
