Abstract: A container, in particular for transporting fruit and vegetables, has a bottom and four side walls that can be folded onto the bottom. The side walls are connected by hinges to the bottom and the hinges are designed as plug-in connecting elements, so that the side walls may be plugged with their hinges arranged at their lower edge into corresponding openings in the bottom of the container and locked therein by locking elements.

Abstract: A returnable container is provided which may be molded or otherwise formed from plastic and is configured to accept objects. The container is preferably assembled from matching elements as modular building blocks. The building blocks used to form the container are made from two different shapes.

Abstract: In a tray for receiving containers, in particular yogurt cups, flexible tongues of compartments are formed for effective engagement of their front free ends with a lower portion of a container resting on the tray bottom. The flexible tongues are shaped like a pitched roof and the inside roof side of each flexible tongue on the compartment side is drawn a corresponding distance toward the tray bottom for effective engagement with the lower container portion.

Abstract: A plastic receptacle has a pivotable hoop-handle, which, at two diametrically opposing carrying extensions is connected to the receptacle by strap hinges. Each of the carrying extensions is configured as a U-shaped, outwardly protruding stay, having two vertical bars connected by a bow, to the horizontal part of which bow the strap hinge, which is configured as a band-like, flexible intermediate piece, attaches tangentially at the bottom. When the hoop-handle is tilted up, the strap hinge bears against the outer side of the bow and of the adjoining bar. At a slight distance from the latter there is disposed a retaining cam, which projects like a ramp and retains the strap hinge, and therefore the hoop handle, in an approximately upright position. The receptacle includes a bucket, which is surrounded beneath the upper rim of its side wall by a reinforcing ring, injection-moulded in one piece from plastic, which is snapped removably onto the bucket and onto which the hoop handle is formed.

Abstract: In a stackable bottle crate from plastic material, the side walls are reinforced by vertical hollow profiled columns which are extended up to the upper marginal edge of the crate side walls and together with the upper marginal edge from a circumferential piling edge for load reduction.

Abstract: A stackable container particularly for receiving cans, having no side walls, is built with holding tongues protruding from the container bottom in an upward direction. The holding tongues disposed along the circumferential margin are arranged in a manner directed to the gaps between compartments and are dimensioned in height in such a manner that load distribution is effected through the cans received in the container.

Abstract: The invention relates to a split box, in particular a bottle case, having handles wherein the halves or parts of the case can be locked and unlocked by handles acting on engaging locking members of the case. The case has relatively displaceable handles for locking and unlocking. One of these handles is preferably associated with each half or part of the case. The halves or parts of the case are locked and unlocked by a sliding movement of the handles.
