Abstract (en)

A plastic crate or container comprises a bottom and crate walls, and in at least one crate wall an opening which is bounded at the top side by a grip, which is composed of a crate wall part which passes downwards via a flexible connecting part (13) into a flap (14) which is intended for bending upwards and lying against said crate wall part, while a wall weakening is provided in the connecting part (13) parallel to the bending axis. The connecting part is weakened by means of a number of grooves (15) which run parallel to the bending axis of said connecting part and are spaced a short distance apart. The grooves can be of such size that after bending over the flap the groove edges lie essentially against each other. <IMAGE>
