influence are, in an advantageous embodiment, Fig. 5.

In the drawing, a special embodiment of the invention is shown, which is particularly intended for storing, shipping and dispensing wire for magnetic windings. It consists of an annular container 10 and an annular lid 12. The container 10 is formed from an annular, relatively thin base part 14 and relatively thin inner and outer walls 16, 18. The bottom part 14 has inner and outer peripheral edges 20 and 22, respectively. The inner peripheral edge 20 therefore delimits a central, circular opening 24. The inner wall 16 has upper and lower ends 26 and 28, which are each circular. The lower end 28 is connected to the inner circumferential edge 20 of the bottom part 14 so that a central cavity 30 is defined, which extends upwardly from the opening 24 delimited by the inner circumference 20 of the bottom part 14. The inner wall 16 extends from the base portion 14 to its upper end 26 inwardly to the longitudinal axis of the _<hollow space 30 inclined so that the cavity 30 has a frusto-conical shape.

The outer wall 18 also has upper and lower ends 32 and 34, respectively, which are each circular. The lower end 34 is connected to the outer peripheral edge of the bottom part 14. The outer wall 18 therefore surrounds the inner wall 16 coaxially and at a distance so that the walls come together delimit an annular cavity 36 with the bottom part 14, which at its upper end 38 is open. The outer wall 18 extends from the bottom part 14 towards its upper end 32 towards the outside inclined so that the annular cavity 36 is wider at its upper open end 38 than at the bottom part 14. The inclinations of the inner and outer walls 16, 18 are such that the distance measured radially between the outer surfaces of the inner and outer walls 16, 18 on the bottom part 14 is smaller than the radially measured width of the cavity 36 at its upper end 38, so that thereby there is the possibility of inserting empty containers 10 into one another.

As best seen in Fig. 3 as can be seen, wire or another one in the form of a strand can be present (iut loosely through the upper end 38 in the annular Cavity 36 can be wound up to form a roll 40. After the container has been stored and / or shipped, to the desired size with loosely wound wire or other slang-shaped cm Material has been filled, the material from the container 10 through the upper open end 38 of the annular Cavity 36 are issued.

In order to be able to lift the container together with the goods located in it, there is a handle 42 which extends across the central cavity 30 and to the inner surface of the inner wall 16 at the upper find 26 is connected. The handle 42 has a U-shaped cross section with a lower web 44 and parallel legs 46, 48.

Annular edges 50, 52 are formed at the upper end 26 on the inner wall 16 and extend radially inward. The ring edge 50 extends between the section delimited by the leg 46, and the ring rim 52 extends between ik'iii from the opposite leg 48 of the handle 42 limited section. A plurality of mutually spaced reinforcement ribs 54 are on the inner surface of the wall 16 and extend inclined from the annular edges 50, 52 downward. A plurality of spaced apart reinforcing ribs 56 are on the outer Surface of the outer wall 18 arranged and terminate in downwardly facing shoulders 58, which from Bottom portion 14 are some distance away, as best shown in FIG. 3 can be seen. The shoulders 58 of the

ίο Reinforcing ribs 56 serve as stops when Pushing together or nesting several containers, prevented by the shoulders 58 becomes that the containers are inserted too tightly into one another.

The whole container including the bottom part 14 of the inner and outer walls 16, 18, des The handle 42, the ring edges 50, 52 and the ribs 54, 56 are preferably made entirely of suitable plastic poured. The container 10 can for example be injection molded from linear polyethylene or High density polystyrene can be made. These plastics are sufficiently rigid and strong so that not only is the goods in the container protected against damage during shipping and storage, but it is also possible to lift and lift the container completely filled with wire or the like.

The container 10 is made of translucent or at least partially transparent in the exemplary embodiment Plastic material made, which gives the opportunity during filling, at a Inventory and to be able to determine when dispensing the goods how much goods are in the container is located.

The cover 12 is similarly molded as a whole from suitable plastic, for example made of linear polyethylene or high density polystyrene. The cover 12 has a flat, annular Upper part 60 on with downwardly projecting inner and outer edges 62 and 64, respectively. The downward protruding edges touch the ring edges 50 and 52 and the upper end 32 of the underside outer wall 18. The outer edge 64 has a depending lip 66 which fits exactly over the upper end 32 of outer wall 18 fits. In Fig. 3 it can be seen that the inner edge 62 is a central opening 68 which is coaxial with the central cavity 30 of the container 10 and with this cavity is in communication. Several spaced reinforcing ribs 70 extend radially between edges 62 and 64.

In order to releasably secure the lid 12 on the container 10, a plurality of holders 72 are between the ribs 70 of the cover 12 arranged in a distributed manner. The holders 72 form a cohesive part with the edge 62 Pieces and have downwardly projecting parts 74. The parts 74 have laterally outwardly projecting Riegclleilc 76, which end in shoulders 78. The shoulders 78 define areas in which the intimate Circumferential edges of the ring edges. 50, 52 can occur. When the lid 12 is on top of the is placed on the upper end of the container 10, the locking parts 76 of the holder 72 are therefore through the ring rims 50 and 52 initially pressed outwards.

Then the locking parts 76 resiliently touch the inner ones Peripheral edges of the ring rulers 50 and 52 and snap under these.

The ring edges 50, 52 and the mil these together

Men-acting holder 72 of the lid 12 could instead of the arrangement shown on the outer Circumferences of the wall 18 and the cover 12 are arranged. With larger dimensions it can it may be desirable to have the ring rims and retainers on both the inner and outer peripheries to be provided.

For removing the lid 12 from the container 10 slots 82 are provided in the lid, which with the Latch parts 76 are connected, as best shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 can be seen. the Slots 82 can be used for insertion of a tool such as a screwdriver are to manually bend the holder 72 so that they with the annular edges 50, 52 except Intervention come. On the upper surface of the upper part 60 is a partially annular stack holder 80 formed, which extends at the attachment points of the holder 72, offset radially outwardly with respect to these, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 can be seen.

In the exemplary embodiment, the largest outside diameter is made of rigid, translucent polyethylene Injection molded container 10 at the top approximately 29 cm. The outside diameter the inner wall is approximately 18 cm at its upper end 26. The total height is approximately 33 cm, the wall thickness is approximately 2.5 mm, and the inclination of the inner and outer walls is 1.5 ° each. The ring edges 50, 52 delimit one Inner diameter of approximately 160 mm and a thickness of approximately 4.8 mm. The reinforcing ribs 54 extend from the top of the Container 10 down approximately 11 cm. The shoulders 58 of the ribs 56 are 5 inches below the top of the container 10. The width of the handle 42 is approximately in the middle 16 mm and its height 13 mm. The lid 12

ίο is injection molded from a semi-rigid polyethylene and has a largest diameter of about 30 cm. With a wall thickness of approximately 2.5 mm of the lid 12, the inside diameter measured at the lip 66 is approximately 29 cm. the greatest height of the lid 12, measured from the lower edge of the lip 66 to the upper surface of the top 60 is approximately 14 mm. The height of the lip 66 is approximately 4.7 mm, and the inner one Edge 62 encloses an inside diameter of approximately 15.8 cm.

A sleeve can be used to fill the container 10 or one of the usual conical ones for unwinding used devices are attached to the upper end of the container. The same filling and unwinders used for previously conventional containers can be used in the Container according to the invention can be used without modification.
