Description

Stackable container

Object of the invention

The present invention, as expressed in the set forth in this specification, refers to a container stackable of those comprising a bottom and larger side walls or sides and minor side walls or front walls.

The package is of the type as described in the invention patent with publication number 2322075, referring to a monomaterial container for fruit and vegetable use with lid, so that in the package of the invention the connection between the walls lateral (front and side) is not done by interacting slots with male elements, but male elements interact each other, incorporating the slots only in the connection of the background.

Starting from this premise, the packaging of the invention presents as a novelty some characteristic means of stacking coupling, which achieves better centering and container retention against transverse forces such as longitudinal, giving rise to all these improvements to a total Stacking stability of the containers.

Background of the invention

There are currently many boxes and containers made of cardboard and other laminar bodies materials, these boxes and containers generally comprising a bottom, two major side walls or sides and two side walls minors or testeros.

The invention patent with publication number 2322075 consisting of a container that presents a structure and configuration as described in the paragraph previous.

Description of the invention

The stackable container that constitutes the object of the invention comprises in principle a configuration parallelepipedic formed by independent laminar bodies that they crimp each other by their adjacent edges by means of a coupling tongue and groove, including the container in principle one bottom, two major side walls and two minor side walls or testeros, so that the major edges of the bottom incorporate some tabs that fit into slots established in proximity to the lower edge of the sides, while the lower edges of the heads have other lower tabs that protrude outside the bottom of the container.

It is characterized because the four zones corresponding corners with the mouth of the container comprise angular male seats in horizontal planes delimited by centered recesses with inverted trapecial shape, complementing said angular seats with seats female angles, also in horizontal planes, arranged in the corner areas the container in correspondence with the bottom, whose corners are affected by triangular cuts to allow the coupling of the angular male seats in the seats Angular female during stacking containers.

The angular female seats conform as consequence of cuts in the form of a rectangular trapezoid made in the lower corner areas of the sides and testeros.

Instead, the angular male seats they comprise two rectangular trapezoid shaped portions that form part of the sides and heads.

Another feature of the invention is that portions of the lower tabs of the protruding projectors outside the bottom, they fit into complementary recesses of the horizontal edges of the trapezoidal recesses of the heads of another lower container during stacking.

Another feature of the invention is that lower tabs of the testeros comprise at least sections independent that pass through pairs of established slots at the bottom in proximity to its minor edges.

Next to facilitate a better understanding of this descriptive report and being an integral part of the same accompany some figures in which with character illustrative and not limiting the object of the invention.

Brief description of the drawings

Figure 2.- Shows an elevation view of the container of the invention.

Figure 3.- Shows a profile view of the container.

Description of the preferred embodiment

Considering the numbering adopted in the figures, the stackable container is determined from independent laminar bodies that crimp each other by their adjacent edges, comprising a bottom 1, two major side walls or sides 2 and two minor side walls or front walls
3.

The heads 3 incorporate in its lower edge lower tabs 4 that fit into slots 5 established in fund 1, protruding outside it, while the major edges of the aforementioned fund 1 have some side tabs 6 that fit into other side slots 7 established in the lower part of the sides 2.

The corresponding upper corner areas with the mouth of the container incorporate angular seats male 8 in horizontal planes formed by two shaped portions of rectangular trapezoid.

These 8 angular male seats complement each other with other female angular seats 9 established in the zones bottom 1 corners in horizontal planes too, seats female angles 9 defined by trapezoid shaped cuts rectangular that affect the lower corner areas of the testeros 3 and sides 2, also complementing with some cuts triangular 10 affecting the corner areas of the bottom 1.

On the other hand, the testeros 3 are affected by centered recesses 11 that delimit the shaped portions of rectangular trapezoid of said heads, counting the edge horizontal of such centered recesses 11 with recesses 12 where protruding portions of the tabs fit 4 of the bottom 3 of a top container during the stacking in which the male angular seats are also fitted 8 of a lower container in female angular seats 9 of another top container

The lower tabs of the heads 3 they can comprise a 4 'double tongue structure that fits in double grooves 5 'of bottom 1, thereby achieving areas of greater contact and therefore better retention, minimizing also an accidental disassembly.

The structure of the container of the invention improves its elasticity when connecting the lower tabs 4 of the heads 3 in the slots 5 of the bottom 1, allowing assembly softer that favors automation.

Sides 2 are affected by a recess greater 13 whose ends converge in some steps that delimit the rectangular trapezoid-shaped portions that They are part of the angular male seats 8.

Another advantage of the invention is that a better entered in the lateral retention stack of the container against transverse and longitudinal forces.
