FOLDING CONTAINER Berne Folding container Folding particularly to hold files intended be filed such containers being set up from a flat prepared blank and which are suitable for being so stacked for example in a filing that the contents of the container ar accessible from one have already been containers have loose insertable intermediate by which the container can Above the disadvantage of these prior art containers in the inadequate stability being the prerequisite for them to be stacked on top of one another without the risk o damage to themselves to their the side scarcely secure in their only to a modest degree capable of fulfilling their namely that of the container into The present invention was based on the problem of providing a folding container in which these disadvantages are The folding container according to the invention is characterised in that it consists of a carrier and a plurality of individual containers each with two side a rear a a top wall and also a front hinged the along one of its long edges to a cover wall and along its longitudinal edge to pivotable bottom tongues and the wall being provided along its longitudinal edge which is the rear with top the said tongues serving to join the carriers to the individual each bottom tongue being pushed over the of individual and each top tongue being folded over the top front edge of an individual By way of an embodiment of the object of the is shown in the attached i is a diagrammatic view of the closed is a similar view of a not yet completely individual containe j corresponding view of the carrier and of an container in a positio 5 is a section on the line in and is a section on the line in Fig The drawings show a form of embodiment of the containe with three individual the number individual containers being however open to variation at The folding container which preferably consists of corrugated cardboard has a carrier 1 with a rear wall 2 and a cover wall connected to it along a longitudinal edge via the fold line On the longitudinal edge which is directed away from the fold line there are hinged on the rear 2 three bottom tongues each of which is associated with one of the individu containers hinged on the top edge of the cover at a distance from the articulation axis g lateral with two each pair a securing flap 10 which can bo bent Of the individual containers each has two side walls and a wall a a top wall and a hinged cover Ml these parts are erected from one flat prepared the bottom 13 being connected through corresponding fold lines to the two side walls and and the hinged cover while along the rear edge of each side wall and lib there is a flap the flaps together forming the rear At the the height of the flaps 16 is so selected that a gap is left between the bottom and the rear wall 12 which they side walls 11a and lib each consist of two side parts 17 which aro folded over each other along the front edge 18 of the The top edge of the side wall is connected via the fold line 19 to the top wall end of which a downwardly fold 20 The ninged cover has j parallel with its folding axis two fold linos 22 and 23 and is folded inwardly about the first and again outwardly about the its edge which is remote the hinge 21 being formed by the outwardly projecting opening flap If the individual containers 7 are in according to the side walls 11a and Jib are set up with folded parts the fold 20 is pushed between the parts 17 the 16 forming the rear wall 12 are through with respect to the side walls 11a and then these individual 7 are connected to the carrier 1 b the fact that tongue 6 is pushed through on the underside of 16 until each bottom tongue 6 rests on the bottom of the corresponding individual container 7 cover is pivoted about fold edge 3 until it the top wall of the individual containers that top 8 can then be folded around the front top edge 25 of each individual container until it rests on the underside of tho relevant top wall the dimensions being so chosen that each top tongue 8 is held in this position by its retaining flaps It is now sufficient to close the hinged cover in positio of the front edges of the retaining flaps 10 serve as stops for the hinged covers By the double folding of the hinged covers and their appropriate it is possible further to ensure they resiliently in the position of whereby at the same it is also possible to compensate for certain tolerances By virtue of the provision of individual containers which grouped together by a carrier to form one it is possible on the one hand to form comparatively small but stable which formed by the individual In the joining and individual containers produces a very stable the stability being further increased by the side 11a and of the individual con constructed as double walls consist of th two side parts this arrangement at the time it ossible to push the fold of each top wall of an individual in between oppositely parts in th secure the to in its This makes it possible such containers be stacked on top one another in any desired quantity risk of to or to their easy access to the comparatively individual containers being easily insufficientOCRQuality
