Description

Annex to the patent application "Stackable Container" The invention relates to a stackable container that is pocket-like, tube-like at its bottom or near the bottom or has other hollow shapes into which discs, plates, pins, tubes or others Molded parts are stored via springs.

These disks, plates and the like can be put into the box under pressure be pushed. Due to the panes, plates and the like protruding on the box bottom. the containers can be placed inside and on top of each other.

It is well known, for example, to nest box-like containers one inside the other and stacking on top of each other, and numerous embodiments of these exist stackable containers (e.g. Gbm 1 911 949), where the box can be attached by attaching of edge reinforcements, recesses and / or elevations is shaped so that sowbhl stacking one inside the other as well as stacking the containers on top of one another when rotated by 180 ° can be done. Due to this design, they can be stacked one inside the other and at the same time one on top of the other (nestable) container is optionally this different type of stacking for the containers allows, depending on whether it is, for example, an empty container or the container filled with cargo and the like. The fact that such a rotation by 180 ° for stacking one on top of the other (nesting of the containers ) is time-consuming and cumbersome, especially with large or long transport boxes, was already recognized and proposed in utility model specification 1 851 558, to make lateral box wall interruptions for inserting the base plate. In this form, however, there is the disadvantage that no good space utilization arises is given in the stacking and the side wall of the box is interrupted have to be.

The aim and object of the present invention was therefore to provide a stackable To find containers that avoid these disadvantages and nestle as well as a stacking of the container allows without a rotation of the stacked boxes by 1d00 is required. In addition, should extensive space utilization can also be achieved when stacking one inside the other and the boxes can be stacked on top of one another in a simple and time-saving manner can.

According to the invention it was found that these goals and objectives under Using a stackable container can be detached in which the container Pocket-like, tube-like or other hollow shapes at its bottom or near the bottom owns into which one or more steel springs or other elastic springs as well Discs, plates, pins, tubes or other molded parts adapted to hollow shapes are stored are.

The washers can be closed by the embedded elastic spring Push back pressure into the pockets, tubes or other appropriate hollow shapes and thus enable the containers to be stacked and nested. The edge of the container or the container wall near the bottom or the container bottom thus has openingsJ rings, Tabs, depressions and the like. In the -connected with an elastic spring Plates, discs, pins and the like.

can intervene.

If, for example, fold-out panes and the like. Used that can be moved sideways under spring pressure, so it is particularly useful -that then in their position a stop on a cam provided in the container bottom Is found.

In the accompanying Figure 1, a stacking container is shown, the preferably quarter-circle recesses (d) or Has pockets in which a quarter disk (b) or similar shaped plate is rotatably mounted about an axis. The plate can be pulled out of the pocket by spring pressure unscrewed and pushed to the side at the same time, so that they are also under pressure is prevented from sliding back from below by a counter bearing injected into the container.

The lateral displacement of the quarter discs is expedient. on each side of the container in the same direction «so that the Quarter slices in the recesses provided in the container edge and at the same time Displacement of the container in the lateral direction the quarter discs next to the Moves the counter bearing and thereby allows it to spring back.

In Figure 2 is a particularly advantageous in the floor construction Embodiment of the stacking container according to the invention shown. The one in the floor construction Existing plates, pins and the like. (b) are inside the box bottom with a elastic spring (d) connected and can so by a corresponding pressure be pushed back into these pockets. When taking out the stacked Empty boxes jump the plate, the pen and the like. Under the action of the spring pressure by itself and enables the boxes to be stacked on top of one another. The edge of the box can with appropriate profiles, reinforcements and the like. To accommodate the Pins, plates, tubes, etc. may be provided. The box can contain divisions selenium. The box bottom and the side walls can be closed as well as with Recesses, reinforcements, ribs and the like. Be provided.

Claims (3)

Patent claims: O Stackable container, characterized in that the container on has pocket, pipe-like or other hollow shapes at its bottom or near the bottom, in one or more steel springs or other elastic springs and washers, Plates, pins, tubes or other molded parts adapted to hollow bars are stored are. 2. Stackable container according to claim 1, characterized in that that the disks, plates, pins, tubes and the like. due to the embedded elastic spring when pressed into the pockets, Allow tubes or other corresponding hollow shapes to be pushed back and thus inserted Allow the containers to be stacked and nested. 3. Stackable container according to claims 1 - 29, characterized in that that the container edge or container wall openings, rings, tabs, depressions and the like. In which the plates and connected to an elastic spring Like. Can intervene.
