Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9404444A1] The present invention relates to a bottom-dump container (1) comprising a container portion (2) having at least two bottom doors (4, 5) situated opposite each other and which are pivotably connected to the container portion (2) and fork tubes (6, 7) supporting said container portion (2), said fork tubes, when changing their relative distance by e.g. a fork truck having adjustable fork distance in the horizontal plane, admit opening or closing of the bottom doors (4, 5). Each bottom door (4; 5) has an opening line (10) which over and above its extension along a hinge (3) connecting the container portion (2) to the bottom doors (4, 5), forms a border line between adjacent edge portions of the end walls (15, 16) of the container portion (2) and the side walls (11, 12; 13, 14) of the bottom door (4; 5), said border line from an extension mainly in parallel to the bottom plane or bottom side (8, 9) of the container portion (2) is able to take a direction which runs obliquely downwards up to the lower, free edge or corner portion (24) of the bottom door (4; 5).
