The supports (5a, b) each have at least one recess (13) that can be oriented to the inner chamber of the container (3) for receiving a cross bar (7). In the recess (13), at least one bearing element (11) for supporting the cross bar (7) is provided. At least one cross bar (7) is provided, which can be inserted in the at least two recesses (13) in the at least two supports (5a, b), respectively, and when installed, connects the two supports (5a, b) with one another, wherein the container storage system (1) can be assembled and dismantled without tools. ## Claims ### Claim 1 Container storage system for the transport and/or securing of goods delivered in a container and/or for the subdividing of the container, wherein the container has side walls of trapezoidal sheet with vertical creases, wherein the container storage system comprises: at least two side supports, which can be arranged vertically in at least two opposite creases of at least two opposite side walls of the container, wherein the supports each have at least one recess which can be oriented toward the inside of the container to accommodate a cross bar and at least one bearing element is provided in the recess to brace the cross bar, at least one cross bar, which can be installed in the at least two recesses in the at least two supports and which joins together the two supports in the mounted state, and the container storage system can be assembled and disassembled without the use of tools, characterized in that the at least two supports can be installed in a crease optionally by the front side or the rear side and/or vertically rotated, wherein the front sides and rear sides of the at least two supports have a different number and/or height of the bearing elements along longitudinal axes of the at least two supports. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) Container storage system according to claim 1, wherein the dimensions of the supports and cross bar are chosen less than the inner dimensions of the container such that the container storage system can be mounted in the container free of stress. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) Container storage system according to claim 1, wherein the outer contour of the supports is configured at least partly complementary to the creases of the container. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) Container storage system according to claim 1, wherein the at least one recess in the support is bounded at the bottom by a bearing element for the supporting of a cross bar. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) Container storage system according to claim 1, wherein the at least two supports are configured as a single piece. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) Container storage system according to claim 1, wherein the at least two supports are configured as multiple piece. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) Container storage system according to claim 1, wherein at least one securing element is provided in each support for securing the at least one cross bar. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) Container storage system according to claim 1, wherein the at least one recess and the at least one bearing element is fashioned or arranged on each side of the particular support. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) Container storage system according to claim 1, wherein at least one milled groove is provided on either side on at least one cross bar for supporting the bearing element, being dimensioned such that a lateral bearing surface is formed for the defined insertion of the cross bar into the respective recess and on the bearing element. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) Container storage system according to claim 1, wherein the surface of the at least one cross bar is at least partly antislip treated and/or coated with an antislip material. ### Claim 11 (depends on 1) Container storage system according to claim 1, wherein the dimensioning and outer contour of the at least one cross bar (7) are adapted to the dimensioning and outer contour of the cargo. ### Claim 12 (depends on 1) Container storage system according to claim 1 comprising at least four side supports each with at least one recess, at least two cross bars, wherein the at least two cross bars which can each be inserted in the at least one recess in the at least four supports can be arranged parallel to each other and in the assembled state form at least one additional level for storage of cargo in the container. ### Claim 13 (depends on 12) Container storage system according to claim 12, further comprising a storage element, which can be arranged on both of the at least two cross bars and thus forms an additional storage surface, wherein the storage element can be adapted to the contours and dimensions of the cargo. ### Claim 14 (depends on 1) Container storage system according to claim 1, wherein additional cross bars and/or lengthwise bars can be coupled with the supports and/or cross bars in order to close up stowage and loading gaps. ### Claim 15 (depends on 1) Container storage system according to claim 1, wherein at least two side supports have a length that corresponds entirely to a height of at least one sidewall of the container. ### Claim 16 (depends on 1) Container storage system according to claim 1, wherein a length of the at least one cross bar corresponds almost entirely to an internal cross section dimension of the container. ### Claim 17 Container storage system for the transport and/or securing of goods delivered in a container and/or for the subdividing of the container, wherein the container has side walls of a trapezoidal sheet with vertical creases, wherein the container storage system comprises: at least two side supports, which can be arranged vertically in at least two opposite creases of at least two opposite side walls of the container, wherein the supports each have at least one recess which can be oriented toward the inside of the container to accommodate a cross bar and at least one bearing element is provided in the recess to brace the cross bar, at least one cross bar, which can be installed in the at least two recesses in the at least two supports and which joins together the two supports in the mounted state, and wherein the container storage system is in an assembled and free-standing state when the at least two side supports are arranged in the at least two opposite creases and the at least one cross bar is installed in the at least two recesses in the at least two supports. ### Claim 18 Container storage system for the transport and/or securing of goods delivered in a container and/or for the subdividing of the container, wherein the container has side walls of trapezoidal sheet with vertical creases, wherein the container storage system comprises: at least two side supports, which can be arranged vertically in at least two opposite creases of at least two opposite side walls of the container, wherein the supports each have at least one recess which can be oriented toward the inside of the container to accommodate a cross bar and at least one bearing element is provided in the recess to brace the cross bar, at least one cross bar, which can be installed in the at least two recesses in the at least two supports and which joins together the two supports in the mounted state, wherein the container storage system is characterized in that the at least two supports are arranged such that a front side or a rear side of each of the at least two supports can be installed in a crease, and wherein the container storage system is in an assembled state when the at least two side supports are arranged in the at least two opposite creases and the at least one cross bar is installed in the at least two recesses in the at least two supports.
