Abstract: A transport container having a base and a plurality of side walls perpendicularly connected to form a container having an inner cavity. The side walls are formed of first and second wall panels. The first and second wall panels are hingedly connected so that the first or upper wall panels may fold down relative to the second or lower wall panels to collapse the transport container after use. The first and second wall panels are hingedly connected by an elongated flexible hinge. Edge portions of the first wall panels have coupling assemblies that are designed to selectively connect and disconnect adjacent first wall panels.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a removable shelf system for a transport container. The removable shelf system includes shelves supported between opposed shelf supports. The shelf supports are supported in an upright position within an inner cavity of the container. The shelves may be removably supported relative to the shelf supports so that the shelves may be removed from the container when not in use or alternatively may be pivotally supported relative to the shelf supports so that the shelf system may be collapsed for storage.

Abstract: A multi-use, knock-down, fully-insulated chamber for the transport of frozen, heated or cooled contents having pivotable sides with interlocking edge retainers for transfer of hoop stresses and wrinkle-type, flexible connective bands to guide sides between their erected and knockdown positions.

Abstract: An insulated container system includes a container and a cover. The container has a base and side walls which define an inner cavity. The cover slidably moves within the inner cavity of the container. The cover includes an insulating central core and a sealing flap surrounding the central core.

Abstract: A hinge system for joining side walls having a first engaged position and a second disengaged position includes a first side wall, a second side wall, a hinge mechanism for joining the first side wall and the second side wall in the first engaged position and a latching mechanism for preventing inadvertently collapse of the first and second side walls. The hinge mechanism has a plurality of barrel lugs having a plurality of barrels and a plurality of hook lugs having a plurality of pins projecting from the hook lugs. Each hook lug is adapted to be positioned between a first adjacent barrel lug and a second adjacent barrel lug so that each pin of each hook lug engages the first adjacent barrel lug. The latching mechanism includes a finger member held in engagement with one of the hook lugs to prevent the pin of each hook lug from disengaging the barrel of the first adjacent barrel lug.
