Problems solved by technology

However, a great disadvantage of known systems of this type is that they lose valuable storage space due to the slope of the side walls of the sub-totes
This problem can be overcome by providing multiple different sub-totes, each with a separate configuration of sloped and upright side walls, but this configuration requires multiple injection molding tools and also has Orientation and order Disadvantages of arranging the sub-totes within the main tote, which in turn complicates handling of the system

Embodiment Construction

[0030] now refer to Figure 1 to Figure 7 , the depicted container 1 according to a preferred embodiment of the invention has a substantially rectangular base 2 and four side walls 3, 4 extending therefrom, said four side walls 3, 4 passing at their ends by contact with The opposite edges 5 of the base 2 are connected. The depicted container 1 is designed to be nestable with structurally identical containers. Thus, the cross-section of the base 2 is smaller than the container opening defined by the rim 5 .

[0031] Such as Figure 8 As shown, the container 1 according to the preferred embodiment is intended to be used in a system as a sub-tote together with a larger main tote 20 adapted to receive a plurality of sub-totes 1 . The above mentioned nestable design of the containers 1 requires sloping of the side walls which in turn leads to a waste of available storage space when multiple containers 1 are nested within the nestable master tote 20 . In order to remedy this sho...

Abstract

The invention relates to an expandable container (1) comprising: a substantially horizontal base (2); four side walls (3, 4); A rim (5), wherein at least one of the four side walls is configured as a movable side wall having an upwardly extending side portion (4.1) and a substantially horizontal base portion (4.2), the side portion The upper edge portion of the upper edge is connected to the rim by a hinge (4.4) so ​​that the movable side wall can be moved between a nested position and an extended position, in which the side wall is inclined to facilitate nesting of a container in another container , in the extended position, compared to the nested position, the side walls are moved outward to increase the storage space of the container. The invention also relates to a system comprising a main tote (20) in which a plurality of expandable containers (1) as above can be nested, and to a manufacturing method for manufacturing expandable containers.

Description

technical field [0001] The following invention relates to an expandable container comprising: a substantially horizontal base; (four) side walls; and a rim defining a container opening having a larger cross-section than said base, wherein said ( At least one of the four) side walls is configured as a movable side wall having an upwardly extending side portion and a substantially horizontal base portion, the upper edge portions of which are hinged to the rim such that the movable sidewall is movable between a nested position and an extended position in which the sidewall is inclined to facilitate nesting of the container within another container , in the expanded position, the side walls move outwardly to increase the storage space of the container as compared to the nested position. The invention also relates to a system comprising a master tote in which a plurality of expandable containers as described above can be nested, and to a manufacturing method for manufacturing expa...
