Definitions

  • the hinge means may comprise a live hinge.
  • the stacking formations may comprise projections and recesses.
  • the stacking formations are preferably arranged to prevent containers sliding one on the other when stacked.
  • the stacking formations may comprise castellations along, wall edges which are uppermost when the container is in the erect condition and/or castellations located along the lower face of the base and/or recesses or depressions in the face and/or edges of the walls, the recesses or depressions being exposed from above when the container is in the collapsed condition, to receive castellations formed on the base of a like container.
  • the side walls may move to the collapsed condition when the container is not in use and the container may comprise an intermediate member, hinge means connecting the intermediate member with one of the side wall and the base, and attachment means operable to attach the intermediate member to the other of the side wall and the base, the intermediate member and the said other of the side wall and the base being manufactured separately and subsequently assembled by means of the attachment means.
  • the recesses 20 are generally rectangular and aligned parallel with the intermediate members 16. Their length corresponds with the length of the limb 28. This allows the members 16 to be lowered to introduce the limbs 28 into the recesses 20, whereupon the members 16 can be slid sideways parallel to the length of the members 16, to hook the long limbs 28 under corresponding surfaces 30 (Fig. 4) within the recesses 20. Alternatively, the second movement could be in a different direction, such as twisting.
