Definitions

  • the invention relates to a container for orderly storage of components according to the preamble of the claim 1.
  • Stackable containers that have an access opening on one side have and are designed to be open from above one in different sizes and shapes.
  • containers that are put together as stable towers can be known as the "Silafix system” the “Euro-Katolog 1996” from Georg Utz AG, CH-5620 Bremgarten on pages 159 to 164.
  • These containers show with its front hollow columns great stability on and have in practice for storing Screws, nuts or other individual parts in workshops but also excellently proven in the office area.
  • the only disadvantage is that these containers are relatively bulky and therefore during transport or storage of unused containers takes up a lot of space to take. Two containers can be reversed and twisted partially pushed together to save space when they are however, must be stacked in large numbers stable and orderly storage is hardly possible.
  • a stackable container is known from US-A-4,007,839 Known above type, which is designed so that it horizontally along the entire length in another same Container can be pushed in.
  • This is the container with an upper mounting rail with a riser and one additional nose and with an underlying mounting rail provided with end elevations and noses.
  • the Bottom of the container is with a downward curved, provided on the outside protruding edge, the corresponding the elevations mentioned has indentations.
  • the mounting rails and the edge are extremely complex and have many irregular edges and corners, so that such a container is difficult to clean.
  • the containers are not very easy to stack or nestable.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object to create a container of the aforementioned type, the one with sufficient stability compared to the normal Stacking space-saving and stable storage of unused Containers enabled and easy to use.
  • the invention has the great advantage that the container be nested to the full height of the access opening can, so that an enormous space saving for the Storage of unused containers results.
  • the supporting elements of the load-bearing Edge are designed as longitudinal ribs, since these are the side walls give additional stability in the longitudinal direction.
  • a reinforcement in the area of the access opening to maintain, these longitudinal ribs are expedient downwards with a broadened approach. So that the stacked Containers cannot be moved towards each other can, are advantageously lugs on the longitudinal ribs provided in the area of the access opening. So that the nested Containers congruent in a stable tower be ordered, it has proven itself in practice if the rear walls are also stepped. Further it has proven extremely beneficial if below of the step-shaped heel is an inward-looking one wide projection is provided, whereby rib-shaped Reinforcements are formed in the rear wall.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 An open container 1 is shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 which is shown in perspective from above or from below for the storage of screws, nuts and other Small material is used in workshops or the like.
  • the container 1 is open with a load-bearing Edge 3 formed.
  • the front wall 4 is one Access opening 5 is provided, which is about half Height and extends over the entire width of the container 1.
  • the side walls 6 and 7 of the container 1 are step-shaped trained, i.e.
  • the rear wall 13 of the container 1 is accordingly stepped with a step or paragraph 14 trained, but less wide than the step 8 is.
  • the side walls 6 and 7 also have in the upper region 9 each have an inwardly projecting longitudinal rib 15 and 16 on, against the front wall 4 down with a Approach 17 are broadened. This creates between the Stage 8 and the approach 17 of the longitudinal rib 15 a slit-shaped Recess 18. These widened approaches 17 the Longitudinal ribs 15 and 16 also serve to reinforce the Side walls 6 and 7 in the area of the access opening 5.
  • the containers 1 can also be optionally stacked and nested put together to form a stable tower so that unused container 1 or as a mere storage container mixed with filled containers without direct access 1 are arranged. Because of the stable stacking and / or Such towers are also very easy to nest take apart without major changes.
