# Industrial Specification: Container Lock System

## 1. Technical Definition
A mechanical or hydraulic locking mechanism that secures shipping containers to terminal tractors during transport operations.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **15-35 bar hydraulic pressure, 0-45°C ambient temperature, 0-95% relative humidity**. Failure boundary: **Hydraulic pressure below 12 bar causes insufficient locking force; pressure above 38 bar risks seal rupture; temperature below -10°C causes hydraulic fluid viscosity increase to 5000 cP; temperature above 60°C reduces seal material tensile strength by 40%**, Mechanism: **Hydraulic seal extrusion failure occurs when pressure differential exceeds seal material yield strength (typically 15 MPa for HNBR); thermal cycling causes differential expansion between steel components (α=11×10⁻⁶/°C) and aluminum components (α=23×10⁻⁶/°C), leading to fatigue cracking at stress concentrations**.

### 2.2 FMEA (Failure Mode & Effects Analysis)
| Event Trigger | Severity | Failure Mode | Mitigation Strategy |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Hydraulic fluid contamination with particulate matter exceeding ISO 4406 Class 19/17/14 | 8 | Spool valve stiction and cylinder scoring leading to pressure loss | Install 10μm absolute filtration with differential pressure monitoring and automatic bypass at 2 bar ΔP |
| Corrosion-induced pitting at stress concentration points (notch factor Kt=3.2) | 8 | Fatigue crack propagation from corrosion pits exceeding critical crack length (ac=2.5 mm for ASTM A36 steel) | Apply zinc-nickel electroplating (15-25μm) with chromate conversion coating on all load-bearing components |
