  • Patent number: 4712687
    Abstract: A collapsible container comprises side panels which are interconnected at their side edges by end panels. The side and end panels form a container space which can be positioned on top of a pallet. A bottom length flap extends from a lower edge of each side panel. One of the length flaps is intended to be secured to the top surface of a pallet. The other length flap is flanked by bottom width flaps which are each connected to a lower edge of one of the end panels. Each panel and flap is interconnected along a score line. Each end panel has a central vertical score line between score lines connecting the end panel to the adjacent side panels which extends from its upper edge down through a connected bottom width flap so as to divide each width flap into halves. One half of each width flap also includes a diagonal score line which extends from the adjacent side panel down to meet with the central score line dividing the width panel in half.
