Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2011000387A1] The invention relates to a container assembly which has at least two containers (1), each of which has a first engagement structure (48) on the upper face (19) and a second engagement structure (49) on the lower face (18). The engagement structures (48, 49) are adapted to each other such that two containers (1) in a stacked state engage into each other in such a manner that the containers are secured laterally to the stacking direction to prevent displacement relative to each other, and simultaneously the upper container is prevented from being lifted at least in some areas. The first engagement structure (48) consists of engagement cavities (54) and the second engagement structure (49) consists of engagement protrusions (55). Support feet (57) arranged on the lower face (18) of the container (1) are designed as components of the second engagement structure (49) and can engage the first engagement structure (48) from behind in order to prevent the upper container from being lifted at least in some areas.
