The loading and unloading assembly includes a loading and unloading rail mounted to a ceiling of the container and a loading and unloading wheel assembly movably coupled to the loading and unloading rail. The loading and unloading wheel assembly is mounted to a side of the equipment. The guide assembly includes a guide rail mounted to a floor of the container and at least one guide wheel rollably coupled to the guide rail. The guide wheel is mounted to another side of the equipment opposite to the side mounted to the loading and unloading wheel assembly. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A movable equipment loading and unloading structure configured to movably mount equipment within a container, the movable equipment loading and unloading structure comprising: a loading and unloading assembly comprising: a loading and unloading rail mounted to a ceiling of the container; and a loading and unloading wheel assembly movably coupled to the loading and unloading rail, the loading and unloading wheel assembly mounted to a side of the equipment; and a guide assembly comprising: a mounting base mounted on a bottom of the container; a guide rail mounted within the mounting base; a plurality of rail mounting members mounted on opposite sides of the guide rail, each of the plurality of mounting members abutting the guide rail and the mounting base to mount the guide rail to the mounting base; and at least one guide wheel rollably coupled to the guide rail, the guide wheel mounted to another side of the equipment opposite to the side mounted to the loading and unloading wheel assembly. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The movable equipment loading and unloading structure of claim 1, wherein the loading and unloading rail comprises a supporting portion coupled perpendicularly to a sidewall of the loading and unloading rail; the loading and unloading wheel assembly is rollably coupled to the supporting portion. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The movable equipment loading and unloading structure of claim 2, wherein the supporting portion comprises a limiting portion; the limiting portion is a side edge of the supporting portion extending upward opposite to the sidewall of the loading and unloading rail; the limiting portion and the sidewall of the loading and unloading rail limit the loading and unloading wheel assembly to roll therebetween. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The movable equipment loading and unloading structure of claim 3, wherein the loading and unloading wheel assembly comprises: a connector, a bottom of the connector mounted to the equipment; a wheel shaft coupled to the connector; and a wheel coupled to an end of the wheel shaft and rollably coupled to the loading and unloading rail. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The movable equipment loading and unloading structure of claim 1, wherein the container comprises a rotating floor; one end of the rotating floor is rotationally coupled to a bottom of the container; the mounting base is mounted on the container and the rotating floor. ### Claim 6 (depends on 5) The movable equipment loading and unloading structure of claim 5, further comprising a limiting member coupled to the bottom of the container; the limiting member limits rotation of the rotating floor and supports the rotating floor. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The movable equipment loading and unloading structure of claim 1, wherein each of the plurality of rail mounting members comprises a central shaft and a mounting ring; the mounting ring is sleeved over the central shaft; a bottom of the rail mounting member abuts an inner surface of the mounting base; the mounting ring abuts an outer surface of the guide rail. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The movable equipment loading and unloading structure of claim 1, wherein the guide rail comprises a positioning unit; the guide wheel meshes with the positioning unit and is rollably coupled to the positioning unit. ### Claim 9 A movable receptacle comprising a container and a movable equipment loading and unloading structure, the movable equipment loading and unloading structure received within the container and configured to movably hang equipment within the container, the movable equipment loading and unloading structure comprising: a loading and unloading assembly comprising: a loading and unloading rail mounted to a ceiling of the container; and a loading and unloading wheel assembly movably coupled to the loading and unloading rail, the loading and unloading wheel assembly mounted to a side of the equipment; and a guide assembly comprising: a mounting base mounted on a bottom of the container; a guide rail mounted within the mounting base; a plurality of rail mounting members mounted on opposite sides of the guide rail, each of the plurality of mounting members abutting the guide rail and the mounting base to mount the guide rail to the mounting base; and at least one guide wheel rollably coupled to the guide rail, the guide wheel mounted to another side of the equipment opposite to the side mounted to the loading and unloading wheel assembly. ### Claim 10 (depends on 9) The movable receptacle of claim 9, wherein the loading and unloading rail comprises a supporting portion coupled perpendicularly to a sidewall of the loading and unloading rail; the loading and unloading wheel assembly is rollably coupled to the supporting portion. ### Claim 11 (depends on 10) The movable receptacle of claim 10, wherein the supporting portion comprises a limiting portion; the limiting portion is a side edge of the supporting portion extending upward opposite to the sidewall of the loading and unloading rail; the limiting portion and the sidewall of the loading and unloading rail limit the loading and unloading wheel assembly to roll therebetween. ### Claim 12 (depends on 11) The movable receptacle of claim 11, wherein the loading and unloading wheel assembly comprises: a connector, a bottom of the connector mounted to the equipment; a wheel shaft coupled to the connector; and a wheel coupled to an end of the wheel shaft and rollably coupled to the loading and unloading rail. ### Claim 13 (depends on 9) The movable receptacle of claim 9, wherein the container comprises a rotating floor; one end of the rotating floor is rotationally coupled to the bottom of the container; the mounting base mounted on the container and the rotating floor. ### Claim 14 (depends on 13) The movable receptacle of claim 13, wherein the movable equipment loading and unloading structure further comprises a limiting member coupled to the bottom of the container; the limiting member limits rotation of the rotating floor and supports the rotating floor. ### Claim 15 (depends on 9) The movable receptacle of claim 9, wherein each of the plurality of rail mounting members comprises a central shaft and a mounting ring; the mounting ring is sleeved over the central shaft; a bottom of the rail mounting member abuts an inner surface of the mounting base; the mounting ring abuts an outer surface of the guide rail. ### Claim 16 (depends on 9) The movable receptacle of claim 9, wherein the guide rail comprises a positioning unit;
