Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0570343A1] A bin (1) suitable for transporting and dispensing small loose items, typically screw caps, comprises a rectangular base (2) surmounted by rectangular side panels (7, 10) extending upward to create the enclosure, which are arranged in two sets connected to the base and to each other by hinges (6, 9) in such a way as to allow rotation about horizontal axes between a vertical position, and a collapsed configuration in which all the panels lie flat one on top of another occupying the uppermost part of the base (2); with the bin erected and in use, the adjacent upright members of the panels (7, 10) are secured rigidly one to another at each corner by bolts or catches (8, 11), which are released to collapse the structure. The base (2) affords two dispensing outlets (16, 19), bottom and side, which can be opened selectively according to requirements by positioning two relative gates (18, 21). <IMAGE>
