Abstract: The invention relates to a modular receptacle formed by a plurality of axially-nestable necked containers. The neck of the containers includes a flange which cooperates with a recessed tubular chamber provided in the base of the containers. The flange is housed in the chamber, such that it is free to move radially, but bears axially against a shoulder in one direction. Bosses are provided on a flared section that extends from the neck and said bosses are received in cavities located in a flared pocket that extends from the above-mentioned chamber. The bosses and cavities form members that provide axial and radial stabilization for the nesting arrangement formed when the flange bears against the shoulder and they include inclined lateral-pressure-bearing ramps used to separate two assembled containers.

Abstract: The invention relates to a modular container consisting of a plurality of elementary containers (1) stacked sequentially into one another. The elementary containers (1) comprise a recessed (5) [sic] base (4) for receiving a neck (2). Nesting elements (6, 7) assemble peripheral ramps (8, 9) in nested cooperation capable of assembling together the elementary containers (1) by rotating their axial junction, and end-of-travel stops (10, 11, 14, 15) of said rotation in snap-on cooperation which constitute means of locking the assembly of the elementary containers (1) from rotation, and which are capable of preventing spontaneous reverse rotation.
