Abstract (en)

[origin: EP3590862A1] A folding container having a quadrilateral base (150) and a plurality of cover elements (110, 120, 130, 140) is proposed. Each cover element has a first panel (121, 131, 141) that is pivotably connected from a bottom end to a respective edge of the base (150) so as to be turned between an erected state and a collapsed state. Each cover element also has a second panel (122, 132, 142) which is pivotably connected to the top end of the respective first panel (121, 131, 141). The second panel (122, 132, 142) may be turned between an erected state and a collapsed state. The first panel and the second panel are mutually articulated through at least one hinge which connects the panels, the hinge comprising first and second counterparts (124, 127) articulated through an axle (125). A biasing member (126) is configured to urge the counterparts (124, 127) into a predetermined mutual axial position along the axle for aligning the first and second panels in the horizontal dimension.
