Abstract (en)
A ventilated container (22) includes a rectangular bottom panel (24) and two end panels (26,28) connected to the bottom panel (24) which extend outwardly therefrom. There are two side panels (30,32) connected to the bottom panel (24) which also extend outwardly therefrom. The side panels (30,32) are connected to adjacent end panels (26,28). Each of the side panels (30,32) has a longitudinal passageway (36,38) extending therethrough from one end panel (26) to the other end panel (28) to permit air to pass from the one end panel (26) to the other end panel (28). When the containers (22) are stacked in two adjacent rows, air can pass through the passageways (36,38) from the first row to the second row to cool and ventilate contents of the containers (22). Alternatively the passageway (36,38) may be in an end panel (26,28). <IMAGE>
