Abstract: The invention relates to a transport container (2), in particular made from a synthetic material, having a base (3) and at least two side walls (6) pivotally joined to the base (3) by hinge mechanisms (11), and having a connecting mechanism (12) arranged in an overlap region between an end face (26) of a side wall (6) and an internal face (7) of the other side wall (6) for detachably connecting the side walls (6), acting against the automatic release of the connecting mechanism (12), the locking mechanism (16) being provided as a latching element (18) mounted so as to be displaceable in a side wall (6) and joined to the side wall (6) by at least one elastically deformable retaining arm (17) and displaceable thereby from a locking into a releasing position in the connecting mechanism (12).

Abstract: The invention describes a container comprising a plurality of flaps, several of the flaps being adjustably joined in the region of their front edges by means of hinge mechanisms with the flap forming the base and at least one hinge pin extending parallel with a front edge of a flap is retained at a distance therefrom by means of a connecting link and is insertable in a groove of another flap and one of the two end regions of the groove is closed off across its width by a retaining shoulder and forms a housing chamber for one of the two end regions of the hinge pin, the groove being arranged at least in part regions in a peripheral ridge projecting above one of the flaps and having an open length which corresponds to at least the length of the hinge pin.

Abstract: A carrying plate (1) for beverage cans (5) which have a seamless transition between base and casing is described, can receiving portions (2) being provided on the upper side of the plate with resilient holding devices (3) for the beverage cans (5) distributed over the perimeter and protruding from the upper side of the plate. In order to create advantageous construction conditions, it is proposed that the resilient holding devices (3) should form gripping jaws (4) for resiliently pressing in the casing of a can, and that the can receiving portions (2) should have, as well as these resilient holding devices, rigid axial guide webs (8) for the beverage cans (5) to be received.
