  • Patent number: 6079587
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an easily drained bulk container bottom. The container bottom of the present invention has a planar bottom wall which slopes downward from a high region to an opposite, low region. The bottom wall slopes in one plane and surrounds a raised dome which is generally centrally located in the container bottom. The drainage opening is positioned adjacent the low region to facilitate complete drainage of the container. Fluids run off the raised dome and follow the downward slope of the planar bottom wall from the high region to the opposite, low region, and then out the drainage opening.
