Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1366997A2] Container (100) for a stack (101) of folded towels (103), the container (100) comprising a first container part (106), the first container part (106) having a closed end (108) with two flat delimiting surfaces (110, 111) at right angles to each other and an open end (109). The folded towels (103) are folded into triangles and have a folded edge (105) and a right-angled corner (104) opposite to the folded edge (105). The container comprises in addition at least one second container part (107) with a closed end (108) with two flat rectangular delimiting surfaces (110, 111) at an angle to each other and two triangular side surfaces (115) and an open end (109). The second container part (107) is attached to the first container part (106) by means of a hinged joint (121). By pivoting the first container part (106) and the second container part (107) around the hinged joint (121), the container (100) can be caused to change between two positions in which the first position is a closed position, the packaging position, in which the triangular-folded towels (103) are enclosed within the container parts (106, 107) and the second position is an open position, the dispensing position, in which the triangular-folded towels (103) are inserted in the first container part (106) with the right-angled corner (104) arranged between the flat delimiting surfaces (110, 111) at the closed end (108) that are at right angles to each other and with the folded edge (105) exposed at the open end (109) of the first container part (106). <IMAGE>
