  • Patent number: 10314399
    Abstract: A storage container that has a container housing in which at least one receiving compartment is formed, and a drawer element which can be pulled out and retracted is located in the receiving compartment. Pull out-limiting means prevent the drawer element from being accidentally pulled out beyond a maximum pull-out operating position. The pull out-limiting means have stop tongues which can be pivoted against lateral outer wall sections of the drawer element by means of elastic deformation and each of which includes a stop protrusion that protrudes outwards. A counter stop edge which is arranged on the container housing is located in the pull-out path of each stop protrusion. If the drawer element is pulled out completely, the stop tongues can be bent by being manually acted upon such that the respective stop protrusion can pass by the counter stop edge.

  • Patent number: 10293477
    Abstract: Storage equipment including at least one storage container with a vertical axis, on which a coupling bar, which can rotate about a rotational axis that is at a right angle to the vertical axis, is mounted on the outside, in the upper region of the front side of same. The coupling bar is designed as a pivot bar with only one arm, which is provided with an individual bar arm, projecting away from the rotational axis on one side, on which a coupling structure is arranged. The pivot angle of the pivot bar is limited to 90° by a stop, and the pivot bar can be pivoted exclusively between an inactive standby position with the bar arm oriented at a right angle to the vertical axis, and an active coupling position projecting upwards in the axial direction of the vertical axis.

  • Patent number: 10286542
    Abstract: A storage container including a modular container housing that includes a plurality of housing modules which are placed on top of each other in a vertical direction and are coupled to each other in pairs. Housing modules that are placed immediately on top of each other jointly delimit a slot for an extractable and insertable tray element. Each of the housing modules has a horizontal module wall which runs transversely to the vertical direction and from which a lateral module wall extends upward. At least one slot is laterally delimited by a lateral slot wall which is composed of a combination of an upward-extending upper lateral module wall of a bottom housing module and a downward-extending lower lateral module wall of a top housing module that is placed on the bottom housing module, the lower lateral module wall being coupled to the aforementioned upper lateral module wall.

  • Patent number: 10179672
    Abstract: A container assembly includes at least one container that can be stacked, which has a base unit having a main accommodating body and having a carrying handle and which also has two auxiliary accommodating bodies, which sit on the main accommodating body and cover a main accommodating chamber formed therein in a basic position. Each auxiliary accommodating body has an auxiliary accommodating chamber that can be closed by means of a pivotable closing cover. The auxiliary accommodating bodies can be moved into an access position, in which the auxiliary accommodating bodies make the main accommodating chamber accessible. In addition, couplers are arranged on the base unit wherein the couplers enable vertical coupling of a plurality of stacked containers.

  • Publication number: 20180200875
    Abstract: A storage container provided with a modular container housing, having multiple housing modules arranged above one another in a vertical direction and coupled to one another in pairs. Housing modules that are arranged directly above one another border a respective receiving compartment for a pull-out and push-in drawer element. Each housing module arranged between two receiving compartments is designed as a housing intermediate module, which is provided with a module horizontal wall, from the edge of which an upper module side wall projects upwards and a lower module side wall projects downwards. In this way, each housing intermediate module simultaneously contributes towards forming both a compartment side wall bordering the receiving compartment arranged above the housing intermediate module, and a compartment side wall laterally bordering the receiving compartment arranged under same.
