[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a container used for storage, transportation and transportation of various items, and more particularly to a container with casters that can be freely attached and detached.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 Conventionally, as a collapsible container, a container having a structure as shown in FIG. 7 described in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 55-36350 is known. That is, in the figure, 21 is a frame, 22 is a bottom plate, and 23 is a side plate consisting of an upper plate-shaped portion and a lower plate-shaped portion. The side plate 23 is connected so that both plate-like portions 24 and 25 can be bent at a connecting portion 26. The upper plate-shaped portion 24 of the side plate 23 is rotatably attached to the frame 21 by a mounting shaft 27, and the lower plate-shaped portion 25 is rotatable on the bottom plate 22 by a mounting shaft 28. Is installed as. Therefore, if the connecting portion 26 is extended, both the plate-like portions 24 and 25 of the upper and lower side plates 23 are straightened to have a flat surface, and the connecting portion 26 can be folded to fold. Reference numeral 29 is a swing plate attached to the frame 21 so that one edge thereof can be rotated by the attachment shaft 30.

The conventional folding container shown in FIG. 7 is assembled by extending the side plate 23 and then raising the back plate 29. After the assembling, the swing plate 29 prevents the side plate 23 from being bent from the connecting portion 26, so that the assembled state is maintained. On the other hand, if the swing plate 29 is tilted to the frame 21 side and then the side plate 23 is bent at the connecting portion 26, a folded state can be obtained.

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, the above-mentioned conventional container had to use a trolley or the like for transportation. Also, if casters were attached to the containers themselves, there were problems such as instability when stacking the containers, bulkiness, and spontaneous movement. In order to solve this problem, the object of the present invention is to provide a container with casters, which has casters that can be freely attached and removed so that it can be removed when not needed.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The container with casters of the present invention is fitted with the mounting portion of the moving caster to be attached to the container of the present invention when the reinforcing ribs are provided on the entire back surface (or part) of the bottom plate of the conventional folding container. Provide at least four shaped reinforcing ribs (may be provided on the entire back surface of the bottom plate), and when using the container of the present invention for transportation, attach the required number of casters before use, while The casters can be easily removed from the reinforcing ribs to which the casters are fitted when stacking or stacking or when storing the articles.

[0006]

[Action]

 Of the reinforcing ribs provided on the back surface of the bottom plate of the container of the present invention, when the caster is attached to the caster fitting portion made of the reinforcing rib having a shape that fits with the mounting portion of the moving caster, the mounting portion of the caster is the caster mounting portion. Since it is fitted and fixed in the fitting part, it can be used as a car and used for transportation without using a dolly. Further, when the casters are removed, the caster fitting portions act as reinforcing ribs like other reinforcing rib portions, so that the container can be placed or stacked in a stable state.

[0007]

【Example】

 A representative embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. 1 is a perspective view of the assembled state, and FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the folded state. In FIG. 1, 1 is a frame, 2 is a bottom plate, and 3 is a side plate composed of an upper plate-shaped portion and a lower plate-shaped portion. The side plate 3 is connected so that both plate-like portions 4 and 5 can be bent at a connecting portion 6. The upper plate-shaped portion 4 of the side plate 3 is rotatably attached to the frame 1 by a mounting shaft 7, and the lower plate-shaped portion 5 is rotatable on the bottom plate 2 by a mounting shaft 8. Is installed as follows. Therefore, if the connecting portion 6 is extended, both the plate-like portions 4 and 5 on the upper and lower sides of the side plate 3 are straightened to have a flat surface, and the connecting portion 6 can be folded to fold it. Reference numeral 9 is a swing plate mounted on the frame 1 so that one edge thereof can be rotated by the mounting shaft 10.

The container of the present invention shown in FIG. 1 is assembled by extending the side plate 3 and then raising the swing plate 9. After the assembling, the swing plate 9 prevents the side plate 3 from bending from the connecting portion 6, so that the assembled state is maintained. On the other hand, if the side plate 3 is bent at the connecting portion 6 after the tilt plate 9 is tilted to the frame 1 side, the side plate 3 can be folded as shown in FIG.

Further, as shown in FIG. 3, a reinforcing rib 11 provided in a stitch shape on the back surface of the bottom plate 2 and a reinforcing rib 12 having a shape to be fitted with the mounting portion 15 (see FIG. 4) of the caster 14 for moving. Reinforcing ribs 13 provided in a frame shape at (4 places) and 1.8 cm inside the outer circumference of the bottom plate 2 are provided perpendicularly to the bottom plate 2 at a height of about 1 cm.

[0010]

[Effect of the device]

 The caster-equipped container of the present invention has removable casters that can be easily removed when not needed, so it can be used as it is for transporting without using a trolley as in the past. Casters can be removed so that they do not become unstable, bulky, or move freely when stacking, and it is possible to provide a container that does not spoil the appearance after removing the casters Became.
