American mechanical engineer whose inventions played a major role in containerization. While Vice President of Engineering at the Fruehauf Trailer Corporation, he worked with a Fruehauf customer, Malcom McLean, and together they spearheaded the container ship revolution in the 1950s. Tantlinger developed much of the early technology that made modern container shipping possible while at Fruehauf. His designs included the corner casting and Twistlock systems found on every intermodal container, the spreader bar for automatic securing of containers lifted on and off ships, and the ship-shore container transfer apparatus for the first cellular container ship. In the course of his professional career, Tantlinger was granted 79 United States patents, all related to transportation equipment. Many of his patents related to commercial highway freight trailers and transit buses. In 2010, Tantlinger was awarded the Gibbs Brothers Medal by the National Academy of Sciences for his role in developing the expansion of world trade. He died in Escondido, California, on 27 August 2011, aged 92. Link to Wikipedia biography
