In this case, at least the upper lid position 3.1 Outside dimensions on the outside dimensions of the container, composed of the U-parts 1 . 2 , corresponds. The on the upper cover position 3.1 following situation 3.2 has external dimensions that correspond to the internal dimensions of the assembled U-parts 1 . 2 plus in width (b) increased by the wall thickness of a side wall 5 or 6 correspond. The following cover layers 3.3 - 3.6 have external dimensions that match the internal dimensions of the assembled U-parts 1 . 2 correspond.

That means the two lid layers 3.1 and 3.2 outside on the side walls 5 . 6 fully or partially rest, while the cover layers 3.3 - 3.6 with the lid on 3 on the container located in this.

To the lid 3 highly adaptable form, has the upper deck position 3.1 on the three free sides on the underside of the upper layer 3.1 hinged bars 8th on, each unfolded with the side edges of the top layer 3.1 of the lid 3 following situation 3.2 to lock.

So that the lid so produced by folding can not unfold by itself, the last lid position 3.6 fixation ribs 10 have, z. B. in not shown recesses of the cover layer 3.2 intervention.

It is also possible, the top layers 3.1 - 3.6 to connect with each other by connecting means such. As screws or pins. These should preferably also consist of a compostable and / or recyclable material.

2 shows the insulating and shipping container without lid 3 , The insulating and shipping container is composed of two mutually rotated by 90 ° U-parts 1 . 2 , where each U-part 1 . 2 a multi-layered floor 7 made of corrugated board and on both sides by folding molded multilayer side walls 5 respectively. 6 Made of corrugated cardboard, the dimensions of the U-parts 1 . 2 are coordinated so that the U-parts 1 . 2 when assembled a cuboid, open-topped and a smooth edge having body and the side walls 5 . 6 can be fixed to each other.

The assembly of U-parts 1 . 2 has the advantage that as a starting material flat corrugated cardboard strips can be used and not cross-shaped around a bottom part arranged side wall parts. There is no waste when cutting the corrugated cardboard strip.

Below is shown how the strips of corrugated cardboard are structured, from which the U-part 2 is produced by the accordion-like folding and then with the analogously produced U-part 1 to a 6-ply container are composable.

• – mittig die äußere Bodenlage 7.1,
• – beidseitig an die Bodenlage 7.1 anschließend eine äußere Seitenlage 6.1,
• – weiter beidseitig anschließende Seitenlagen 6.2–6.6, deren Breite b um die Höhe der Wellpappe des Bodens reduziert ist, die bei hergestelltem U- Profil in der Position der jeweiligen Seitenlage vorhanden ist und
• – am Ende beidseitig eine Bodenlage 7.2, 7.3, die so in der Breite bemessen sind, dass sie mit der gegenüberliegenden Seiteninnenwand nach dem Falten abschließen.

The flat corrugated cardboard has symmetrically arranged in series, by creases or kinks 9 separate layers on:

• - in the middle, the outer bottom layer 7.1 .
• - on both sides of the bottom layer 7.1 then an outer side position 6.1 .
• - further on both sides subsequent side layers 6.2 - 6.6 whose width b is reduced by the height of the corrugated board of the soil, which is present in U-profile produced in the position of the respective lateral position and
• - At the end a bottom layer on both sides 7.2 . 7.3 , which are sized in width so that they complete with the opposite side inner wall after folding.

The side layers 6.1 - 6.6 are each folded in concertina fashion by 180 °, such that when folding the outer side position 6.1 90 ° to the ground 7.1 the layers 6.2 - 6.6 lie inside the container.

The floor layers 7.2 . 7.3 be on the ground 7.1 unfolded so that the bottom is 3-ply. When joining the two U-pieces 1 . 2 the soil then also receives a 6-layer structure.

For fixing the side walls 5 . 6 the U-parts assembled to the container 1 . 2 each other can be used connecting means. These lanyards should be compostable.

Similarly, the assembled U-parts can be in a shell 4 be used.

In order to facilitate the carrying of the container, it is further provided that at least two opposite outer layers 6.1 . 5.1 the side walls 5 . 6 engagement recesses 11 exhibit.

In 3 is again the layer structure for a U-part 2 according to 2 shown after folding. The layers 6.1 - 6.6 lie close to each other - but are presented here by far for better understanding. Analog would be the layer structure at the U-part 1 display.

It can be seen that the width b of the side layers 6.2 - 6.6 is reduced by the height of the corrugated board of the soil, that of manufactured U-part 2 is present in the position of the respective lateral position, namely right at the side layers 6.2 - 6.5 around a corrugated board height and in the lateral position 6.6 around two corrugated heights, while left on all sides 6.2 - 6.6 only one corrugated board height is to be considered. This formation of the widths b prevents the development of tension.

• - with lid open 3 .
• - with closed lid 3 .
• - with a shell 4 that the lid 3 and the side walls 5 . 6 includes.

5 shows a further embodiment of the insulation and shipping container. Also this insulating and shipping container is composed of two mutually rotated by 90 ° U-parts 1 . 2 , where each U-part 1 . 2 a multi-layered floor 7 made of corrugated cardboard and multilayer side walls arranged on both sides 5 respectively. 6 Made of corrugated cardboard, the dimensions of the U-parts 1 . 2 are coordinated so that the U-parts 1 . 2 when assembling a cuboid, open at the top and around the height of the lid 3 at the U-part 2 deposed sedimented body.

Unlike the in 2 and 3 illustrated insulation and shipping containers are the side walls 5 respectively. 6 not completely made here by accordion-like folding.

At the larger U-part 1 are the layers 5.1 . 5.5 the outer and inner mantle of the side walls 5 as well as the layers 7.1 - 7.3 of the soil 7 connected and folded, by the side walls 5 including rectangular or square flat corrugated board layers 5.2 - 5.4 ,

At the smaller right U-part 2 are only the layers 6.1 . 6.5 the side walls 6 and the lower bottom layer 7.1 connected and folded, by the side walls 6 including rectangular or square flat corrugated cardboard layers, while the missing floor layers 7.2 and 7.3 Layers are made of rectangular or square flat corrugated cardboard layers, with the heights of the U-pieces 1 . 2 are coordinated so that the U-parts 1 . 2 only with inserted cover layers 3.1 - 3.2 form a level graduation above.

The side walls 5 . 6 and the lid are here only 5-ply. The sixth layer is by a shell 4 Made of corrugated cardboard, which is above the compound and with the lid 3 closed insulating and shipping container is placed.

The in the 1 . 3 and 5 shown folding possibilities for the soil 7 , the side walls 5 . 6 and the lid 3 can be combined in any way.

The proposed insulating and shipping container combines in itself high insulation values already in the described 6-layer structure, which structure in the manner described is still expandable to more layers. The insulation and shipping container is technologically easy to prefabricate and can be easily made on site. The transport of air is eliminated in this way. Since corrugated board is compostable, environmentally friendly disposal is possible.
