Abstract (en)

The container consists of a rigid base (30) with uprights (3) and a series of compartments (2) made from a supple material. The uprights have lower fixed (31) and upper folding (32) sections, turning about horizontal pivots, and the compartments are deployed automatically when the upper sections are raised. The material forming the compartments is attached to horizontal bars (33) between the upper sections of the uprights at the top of the container, equipped with a tensioner for the deployed compartments. The supple material is, e.g. made of PVC-coated polyester or a similar material, and the panels (21-23) making up the compartments are joined together by welds.
