Modular container transport systems

A spine assembly comprising:

• a rigid spine;
• a plurality of mounts arranged on the rigid spine in a plurality of mount rows;
• a data transmission system comprising a plurality of data probes for electronic communications with a container assembly secured to the spine assembly;
• and
• a power transmissions system comprising a plurality of power probes for transmitting power to a container assembly secured to the spine assembly, wherein
• each mount row extends along a width of the spine, and the plurality of mount rows are spaced apart at regular distance intervals along a length of the spine.

A container assembly comprising:

• a plurality of containers secured together, wherein
• each container of the plurality of containers comprises a plurality of fittings for securing the container to a spine assembly and/or another container of the container assembly,
• the plurality of containers are secured together using a plurality of fitting connectors securing a subset of the plurality of fittings together, and
• for each container of the plurality of containers, the plurality of fittings comprises
• a set of corner fittings positioned at each corner of the container, each corner fitting comprising three openings for securing the corner fitting in three directions,
• a first set of intermediate fittings positioned between the corner fittings in a width-wise direction, each fitting of the first set of intermediate fittings comprising one opening for securing the fitting in a length-wise direction,
• a second set of intermediate fittings positioned between the corner fittings in a height-wise direction, each fitting of the second set of intermediate fittings comprising one opening for securing the fitting in the length-wise direction,
• a third set of intermediate fittings positioned between the corner fittings in a length-wise direction along a bottom surface of the container, each fitting of the third set of intermediate fittings comprising two openings for securing the fitting in the width-wise direction and the height-wise direction, and
• a fourth set of intermediate fittings positioned between the corner fittings in a length-wise direction along a top surface of the container, each fitting of the fourth set of intermediate fittings comprising one opening for securing the fitting in the height-wise direction.
