Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2017137053A1] The invention relates to a set (1) consisting of at least two containers (2), each of which has a different inner volume, wherein the cross-sections (4) of the openings in all the containers (2) in the set (1) are identical. In order to create such a set (1) that is characterized in that same can be stacked in a compact manner and is easy to unstack, the bases (5) of all the containers (2) in the set (1) are also identical, and at least one wall portion (6) of the respective lateral face (7) of all the containers (2) in the set (1) has: - a rectilinear section (15) in which the at least one wall portion (6), in each vertical plane running parallel to a vertical axis (8) of the container (2), forms two rectilinear tracks which diverge in the direction of the cross section (4) of the opening and each define an angle (a) of at least 2 degrees, preferably an angle between 2 degrees and 5 degrees, together with the vertical axis (8), and - a transition section (16) which consists of two curved portions and of which the curve of intersection with each vertical plane running parallel to the vertical axis (8) of the container (2) merges tangentially with both the rectilinear section (15) and a curve of intersection of the base (5), wherein a curved portion adjoining the rectilinear section (15) has a larger radius than a curved portion adjoining the base, and the two curved portions merge tangentially.
