Benefits of technology

[0009] It is therefore an objective of the present invention to provide a stackable container that can increase the efficiency of its mass transportation and thereby reduce costs.
[0011] When the stackable container is not in use, the holding means can be removed, so that the box is empty. A plurality of the boxes can then easily be stacked. In addition, a plurality of the holding means can be easily stored together. Consequently, the stackable container saves a great deal of space during storage and transportation thereof. Thus, the costs of storage and transportation of the stackable container are reduced.

Problems solved by technology

Consequently, the stackable container saves a great deal of space during storage and transportation thereof.

Embodiment Construction

[0018] Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, a stackable container 100 in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a box 60, a holding means 61, and a cover 50.

[0019] Referring to FIG. 2, the box 60 is made of a plastic that can prevent the buildup of static electricity. The box 60 includes a pair of opposite first sidewalls 62, a pair of opposite second sidewalls 64, and a bottom 63 (see FIG. 3). The first sidewalls 62, the second sidewalls 64 and the bottom 63 cooperatively define a receiving space therebetween, the receiving space having an opening 66. A peripheral flange 65 extends horizontally outwardly from a top end of the box 60 at the opening 66. The box 60 has a trapezoidal profile when viewed from an end elevation opposite either first sidewall 62. Similarly, the box 60 has a trapezoidal profile when viewed from an end elevation opposite either second sidewall 64. That is, the box 60 is slightly flared from bottom to top, with an area of the opening...

Abstract

A stackable container (100) for storing panels includes a box (61) including a plurality of sidewalls (62, 64) and a bottom (63), the sidewalls and bottom cooperatively defining a receiving space having an opening (66); and a holding means (70, 80, 90) removably engaged in the box, for receiving and holding the panels in the box; wherein an area of the opening is larger than an area of the bottom. When the stackable container is not in use, the holding means can be removed, so that the box is empty. A plurality of the boxes can then easily be stacked. In addition, a plurality of the holding means can be easily stored together. Consequently, the stackable container saves a great deal of space during storage and transportation thereof. Thus, the costs of storage and transportation of the stackable container are reduced.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to a type of container usually used in large numbers, and more particularly to a stackable container for holding and transporting objects such as LCD panels. [0003] 2. Description of the Prior Art [0004] When LCD displays are mass produced, the process usually includes a preliminary process for fabricating LCD panels, and then an assembly process for attaching backlight modules, driving circuits and frames to the LCD panels to thereby produce the LCD displays. The preliminary process and the assembly process are generally performed at different work areas of a factory. The fabricated LCD panels are commonly placed in containers, which are then transported to the assembly work area. The containers protect the LCD panels from damage, and help reduce production costs. [0005] Taiwan patent publication No. 456363 issued on Sep. 21, 2001 discloses a container for holding fragile LCD panels. R...
