Abstract
Disclosed is a rod transport container. The container comprises a first partition member and a second partition member removably insertable into said container. The first partition member incorporates one or more first layer lower support cutouts for supporting a lower circumference of one or more first layer rods loaded within the container. The second partition member incorporates one or more first layer upper support cutouts for supporting an upper circumference of one or more of the first layer rods. The first partition member and the second partition member are removably inserted into the container in mutually offset positions along the longitudinal direction of the rods to be loaded within said container. The rod transport container is capable of securely supporting rods of various diameter through a mechanism comprised only of oppositely facing offset partition members which fixedly maintain the lower and upper circumference of the rods through a wedge-type support structure, thus preventing the movement of the rods within the container.
