Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0705764A2] The container has fold-down side walls (1-4). When erected, neighbouring side walls are locked to each other, pref. in the container corners near the top edges. This forms a construction, which is resistant to lateral forces. The inner and outer faces of the side walls are aligned flush, and overlap on the sides. Locking is by locking hooks, which engage into or over locking elements with one or more angled surfaces. The elements are pref. formed as turning knobs. Pref. the opposite narrow side walls (3,4) have U-shaped projecting sections (20) to engage with the long side walls (1,2).
