  • Patent number: 5597084
    Abstract: A container comprising a base, a pair of side walls, and first and second end walls. The pair of side walls are releasably connectable to the base by slidable movement from a first position to an intermediate position and then to a final position. The side walls are releasably connectable to the first and second end walls. The first end wall is releasably connectable to the base after the first end wall has been connected to the side walls when the side walls are in their intermediate position by slidable movement of the pair of side walls and the first end wall as a unit over the base to the final position of the side walls. After connection of the first end wall and side walls to the base, the second end wall is releasably connected to the side walls to complete the container. Interlocking three of the four walls to the base provides a container that is very strong and damage resistant. The container is also quick and simple to assemble and requires no tools.
