Abstract: The invention relates to a transport and/or storage container (1), particularly of plastics, for transporting goods, such for example as cans, bottles or tubs, with a carrier body (2) which is formed at least by a base (3) which forms a support surface for the transport goods and a plate-shaped positioning device (4) extending parallel to the base (3) provided with apertures (27) for the transport goods, the positioning device (4) being connected by hinge arrangements (5) to the base (3) or with wall members (6) disposed on the base (3) at a spacing (33) from the base (3) and is mounted to be displaceable in a direction vertical to the base (3).

Abstract: The invention concerns a transport and storage container for package freights, the aim of the invention being to permit such freight material to be removed from containers through an opening in the side even when the containers are stacked one on top of the other. Disposed in one of the side walls (4) or face walls (6, 7) is a flap (8) the height of which is less than the height (16) of the opening by an amount at least equal to the vertical width of a mounting slot (13) in which the flap is mounted. The flap (8) is mounted by means of bearing pins (9) which fit in mounting slots (12, 13) so that it can move vertically and pivot and so that it can be locked in place in the opening by means of locking pins (10, 11). The container proposed also meets the requirements for ease of recycling by virtue of the fact that only a single material is use in its construction.

Abstract: An articulation arrangement for detachably connecting two wall parts of a container, each of the wall parts having a surface and an underside, one of the wall parts having a side face extending between the surface and the underside, and the other wall part comprising a marginal strip having an arcuate surface defining an arc of a circle about an axis extending parallel to a longitudinal direction of the marginal strip, the arc extending from the surface of the other wall part to the underside thereof and the marginal strip having a thickness extending from the surface to the underside of the other wall part, and the side face of the one wall part facing the arcuate surface of the marginal strip.

Abstract: The invention describes a container (1) with a base (2) and side wall parts (3 to 6) connected therewith so as to be orientable from a position approximately vertical to the base (2) into a position flat with the base (2). The side wall parts (3 to 6) are connected with the base (2) via articulation arrangements (8) arranged in the region of the encircling longitudinal and transverse side faces (7). In addition, connecting arrangements (35) are arranged between the side wall parts (3 to 6) corresponding to the longitudinal and transverse side faces (7) and are constructed by a coupling device. This coupling device projects in the direction of an overlapping region (31) of the further side wall part (3 to 6) arranged at 90.degree. and has centering and/or locking elements, in the overlapping region (31) of the further side wall part (3 to 6), centering and/or locking mountings holding these.
