Benefits of technology

[0008]Therefore, the object of the present invention is to provide a modular container that can be easily and conveniently processed and assembled.

Problems solved by technology

Because the technique of making the one-piece container is rather difficult, the defective rate of the container during production is high.
As to the method of rolling the metal plate and connecting the ends thereof, the appearance of the product is affected because the connection of the ends is exposed.
Since the modular container 1 requires high precision in the processing of its components, manufacture and assembly of the same are very inconvenient.

Embodiment Construction

[0019]Before the present invention is described in greater detail, it should foe noted that the seems reference numerals have been used to denote like elements throughout the specification.

[0020]Referring to FIGS. 3 to 5, the first preferred embodiment of a modular container according to the present invention is shown to comprise a base seat 3, a tubular body 4, and a top frame 5.

[0021]The base seat 3 has a substantially rectangular base wall 31, an upstanding flange 32 extending from a periphery of the base wall 31, and a plurality of spaced-apart bottom insert holes 311 formed in the bass wall 31 adjacent to the upstanding flange 32 and equally spaced apart from each other.

[0022]The tubular body 4 is connected to she base seat 3 with the upstanding flange 32 surrounding a bottom end thereof. The tubular body 4 has a plurality of corners, a plurality of wall plates 41, and a plurality of pillars 42. In this embodiment, the tubular body 4 has four corners, four wall plates 41, and f...

Abstract

A modular container includes a tubular body having a plurality of wall plates, and a plurality of pillars each interconnecting two adjacent ones of the wall plates. Each of the pillars has two wing plates projecting outwardly therefrom. Each of the wing plates has at least two vertically spaced-apart slots. Each of the wall plates has a plurality of spaced-apart side tabs engaged respectively to the slots in a corresponding one of the wing plates. A base seat is connected to and covers a bottom end of the tubular body.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]This invention relates to a modular container, more particularly to a modular container having a plurality of wall plates.[0003]2. Description of the Related Art[0004]A container, such as a garbage container, a book or newspaper container, etc., has a tubular body that is sometimes made into a one-piece body, and at other times that is made by rolling a stainless steel plate to form a circular body, after which the ends thereof are joined together. Because the technique of making the one-piece container is rather difficult, the defective rate of the container during production is high. As to the method of rolling the metal plate and connecting the ends thereof, the appearance of the product is affected because the connection of the ends is exposed.[0005]The applicant has developed a modular container that is capable of resolving the aforementioned drawbacks, its disclosed by the applicant in Taiwanese Publication No. 50...
