Known devices for storing footwear, such as shoes, sandals, boots and the like, include shoe racks, organizers, rolling plinths and so forth. However these devices are open to the ambient and the stored footwear is thus exposed to ambient dust particles and prone to damage. Other known devices would include cardboard and clear plastic boxes.
For these reasons it is preferable to store footwear in -sealed containers. Conventional design of such containers facilitates secure stacking so that the containers are able to be stacked one on top of the other. However, with such a stacked arrangement it is first necessary to remove the container from the stack in order to access an item of footwear.
Further problems regarding ventilation of the footwear and space wastage when transporting the containers also arise. it is a therefore an object of the present invention to provide a storage container and closure which goes at least some way toward overcoming the above problems and/or which will provide" the public and/or industry with a useful alternative.
It is acknowledged that the term ‘comprise’ may, under varying jurisdictions be provided with either an exclusive or inclusive meaning. For the purpose of this specification, and unless otherwise noted explicitly, the term comprise shall have an inclusive meaning — i.e. that it may be taken to mean an inclusion of not only the listed components it directly references, but also other non-specified components. Accordingly, the term ‘comprise’ is to be attributed with as broader interpretation as possible within any given jurisdiction and this rationale should also be used when the terms ‘comprised’ and/or ‘comprising’ are used.
Further aspects of the present invention will become apparent form the ensuing description which is given by way of example only.

Referring to the drawings, and initially to Figs. 1 to 6, there is shown a storage device formed as a container, indicated generally by the reference numeral 1, configured according to the invention. The container 1 may be made from sheet material, corrugated material, extruded moulded plastics, vacuum, mic or blow moulded plastics and cardboard. A storage system comprising a plurality of the containers stacked on top of each and connected in a side by side fashion is also envisaged in a further aspect of the present invention.
The container comprises a base 3 and a side wall 4. In the embodiment shown, the side wall 4 comprises separate wall sections 4a, 4b and 4c, each of which is pivotably joined to the base 3 so that the container 1 is movable between a collapsed configuration, as shown in Fig. 5, in which the container 1 is substantially flat, and an expanded configuration, as shown in Fig. 6. In the expanded configuration there is a top opening, indicated generally by the reference numeral 5, and a front opening, indicated generally by the reference numeral 6, to the interior 7 of the container 1. The base 3 may optionally comprises ground engaging feet, casters or other means for enabling the container 1 to be easily moved along the ground. The ground engaging feet may be formed by protrusions 14 formed in the base 3. Such a feature ensures the base is elevated from the floor whilst also minimises surface contact and tension which allows smooth and easy movement on floor surfaces, such as wood, carpet, tiles and the like.
In the instance shown, the base 3, side wall 4 and the lid 8 comprises an array or arrangement of protrusions 9. Each protrusion comprises a plurality of venting apertures . This will allow for air flow through the container to prevent the retention and build up of odours during storage of articles. The location and orientation of the venting apertures allows the passage of air through the container 1 but prevents the direct fall of dust from entering the container. In the instance shown, the venting apertures 10 are arranged on an interior surface of the base and sidewall and face in an upward direction. This protects the ventilation system from downward fall of damp air and dust. The thermal- driven warmer cleaner air rises allowing the dehumidifying, antifungal, antibacterial and deodorising flow of air to protect and condition stored articles, such as shoes.
The container 1 also comprises a closable flap or door 11 which provides access to the interior 7 of the container 1 through the front opening 6 when the container is in the expanded configuration. Such a configuration allows retrieval and placement of storage articles in the storage device without disturbing other storage devices when in a stacked configuration.
The container 1 is preferably constructed from transparent material, although it will be understood that the container may be made of opaque, or any type of material as required or as desired. The container 1 may be used to store a variety of products, including, but not limited to footwear.
The storage device also comprises a removable lid 8, shown in Figs. 7 and 8, for closing the top opening 5. The lid 8 is a substantially rigid structure which is securable to the sidewall 4 to form a rigid enclosed box. The lid comprises a top wall 16 and a downwardly projecting skirt 17.
When in the collapsed configuration, the base 3 and sidewall 4 are adapted to be contained within the lid 8. The lid 8 is thus designed and constructed to hold the sides 4 rigidly when erected. It is also designed to hold and stack one container 1 on top of another. The lid 8 may also have a duel purpose as a frame to hold the sides rigidly and also have a detachable top/lid built within it. A slot on top of the lid 8 may be used to drop a clear envelope to hold photos or information on the product in the container 1.
The lid 8 comprises side connectors, indicated generally by the reference numeral 12, for securing the lid of one storage device to a lid of an adjacent storage device (as shown in Fig. 9). In the instance shown, the connectors 12 are tongue and groove type connectors so that the tongue 12a engages in a complimentary slot or groove 12b in a lid 8 of an adjacent storage device 1 forming a storage system.
As shown in Figs. 10 and 11 locking means, indicated generally by the reference numeral , is provided for securing the lid 8 to the sidewall 4 so as to close the top opening of the container 1. The locking means 20 comprises locking teeth 21 which in the instance shown are provided on the lid 8, and complimentary iocking slots 22 formed in the sidewall 4. The locking teeth 21 are thus adapted for secure engagement in the locking slots 22. The use of such a locking means ensures that the lid may effectively clip to the container 1 to form a rigid storage device. The construction of the storage device is such that the side wall can be warped or stressed when fitting the lid using the locking means so that when secured the lid and side wall are of a sound rigid construction.
Additional internai support connections and clips are provided to lock the side walls 4a, 4b and 4c together with and base 3 for added rigidity.
As shown in Fig. 12, the base 3 of the container comprises connection holes for receiving protrusions 15 extending from a lid of another container 13 to facilitate secure stacking.
The present invention thus provides a modular storage solution built up from number of containers 1 in which each container 1 may be connected to the other to form a network of pigeon holes. Each container 1 is collapsible so that it can be folded to create a compact unit for transporting. Each container 1 can be accessed through the flap front door 11 for ease of loading and unloading. The protrusions/undulations 9 in the side walls 4 and base 3 contain a system of hoies 10 that facilitates the flow of air. This flow of air is designed to ' prevent the retention and build up of odours when stored. The location and orientation of the holes 10 ailows the passage of air but prevents the direct tail of dust from entering the container 1. The design of the container 1 can be in two or three parts comprising lid 8 which clips to the base 3 and side walls 4 to form a rigid enclosed box. The front flap or door 11 can be a separate component that clips to the lid 8, base 3 and or side walls 4 making a three piece construction. The construction of the lid 8 is such that the sides of the base 3 and side walls 4 can be warped by the action of fitting causing stresses in the sides that make the construction more rigid. The container 1 is also insect resistant. The venting structures 10 are arranged in the protrusions 9 so that the venting surfaces are predominantly on the up sloped surface regions. The unique landscape of the half-moon and other venting positions ensure that these vents are on the inside of the container and face in an upward direction. This protects the ventilation system from downward fall of damp air and dust. The thermal-driven warmer cleaner air rises allowing the dehumidifying, antifungal, antibacterial and deodorising flow of air to protect and condition the shoes. The lid 8 can also have a top opening feature if required. The container 1 can be constructed so that it comprises material having an ultraviolet tint for the protection of product. The lid 8 is designed to create sideways forces that keep sides stiff and erect.
The lid 8 will have catch points inside the rim to hold box above or below if used in reverse .
A useful function of the present invention is thus that it allows visible identification of the products inside. The container 1 can be nested, stacked or folded. The use of transparent plastic and the ability to retrieve and store shoes and other products without destacking the boxes is also advantageous. The container will be available in a number of sizes to fit all types and sizes of shoe wear or other stored articles.
With reference to Figs. 13 a and 13b, there is shown a tray or drawer 30 for inserting on the base 3 of the storage device 1 to form a type of aeration chamber. In the instance shown, the tray 30 is raised above the internal surface of the base 3 to form a gap therebetween. The tray 30 comprises holes 32, which may be optionally clustered, and be located above the ground engaging protrusions 14 in the base 3. This feature may also be used independently of the storage device 1. Use of the tray insert 30 creates an enhanced air chamber under the shoe or product that is stored in the storage device 1.
The extra natural air flow created by this chamber allows for the dissipation of odours, greater dehumidifying, anti-fungallbacterial and drying properties for stored products. It allows the introduction of substances for air treatment into the chamber. These substances are isolated or physically separated from the stored product. Substances including pot pouri, perfume, airfreshner, other fragrance products, anti fungal, antibacterial, insect repellent, dehumidifying or any other product care substances can be placed in the under the tray 30 as required.
With reference to Figs. 14a to 14c, the lid 8 andlor base 3 may have holes 34 in it to allow the introduction of fixings 35, including plastics, screws, nails and the like to be inserted through the lid 8 and into corresponding receiving holes 36 locating in sides walls 4 of the storage device 1. Such a feature will provide added rigidity to the side walls 4. As shown in Fig. 15, molded posts 38 may also project from the lid 8, the base 3 or side wall 4 to provide a male/female catch point or linking of the lid/base and side wall. This feature is particularly useful if using corrugated plastic or cardboard sides. Further rigidity may also be provided by a plurality of offset channels 40 in the lid 8, as shown in Fig. 16. Still further rigidity may be provided using a wave or undulating link 42 between the lid 8 and sides 4, as shown in Fig. 17a and 17b.
In an alternative embodiment, and as shown in Fig. 18, the side walls 4 and lid 8 may comprise undulations 46 to thereby impart a corrugated look to the storage device 1.
It will of course be understood that the invention is not limited to the specific details described herein, which are given by way of example only, and that various modifications and alterations are possible within the scope of the invention.
