Definitions

  • the invention relates to a plastic container with two end frame parts and a longitudinal part of the container which can be attached between the end frame parts and forms the bottom part and the side walls and with means for fastening the end frame parts to the longitudinal part of the container, the plastic container having end walls as a frame-shaped shaped piece with an upper part on its two opposite end sides and a lower edge, a pair of parallel side edges connecting these and having a plate-shaped insert made of rigid foam, which receive between them a container longitudinal part formed as a strand-shaped profile body made of non-foamed plastic, the at least two longitudinally extending, thinner in cross-section than the rest Has region of the longitudinal part formed, slightly flexible hinge regions along which the container longitudinal part can be bent, and the front frame parts at their upper and lower R change near their corners are provided with projections and recesses that fit in pairs when stacking several identical plastic containers.
  • Transport containers for agricultural products such as fruit, vegetables and flowers were previously made from glued corrugated cardboard or from assembled pieces of wood.
  • corrugated cardboard containers are not moisture-resistant and are therefore damaged by exposure to moisture.
  • corrugated cardboard containers are not reusable and in many cases prevent the required ventilation of the product inside.
  • wooden containers often consist of very thin, easily breakable wood. Even wooden containers are not moisture-resistant, often have a tendency to mold, spoil the product inside and are generally not reusable.
  • Plastic containers for agricultural use are also known from the prior art, but they are manufactured by injection molding. Containers manufactured by injection molding are comparatively expensive due to the long cycle time of the injection molding machines required to inject products of this size.
  • a box-like plastic container of the type mentioned at the outset has therefore already been proposed for the transport of agricultural products such as fruits or vegetables (DE-OS 27 17 880).
  • Such a container made of foamed plastic has advantages over the conventional corrugated cardboard containers, but is relatively expensive due to the relatively long cycle times of the injection molding machine with which the container is manufactured.
  • FIG. 1 Another known packaging box, in particular for fruit and vegetables, consists of a container with headboards made of wood, a wood agglomerate or cast or injection-molded plastic.
