(54) Large stackable plastic container with improved feet


(57) A stackable container, made of plastic, with large size and high loading capacity for the storage and transport of products in general, comprising a polygonal base wall (1), lateral walls (2, 3, 4, 5), able to delimit with said base wall a compartment (6) for containing said products, feet (7, 7A, 7B) branching off at least at the angles (8) of said base wall and able to distance said base wall (1) from a bearing surface (9, 9A) of the container, and a plurality of upper elements (16) for at least partial bearing for the feet (7) of a container stacked on an underlying container, in which: said feet (7) have, at least at one outer wall (10) thereof, a split into at least two portions (11, 12), in which one of said portions (11) is recessed relative to the other (12), thereby delimiting in said at least one outer wall a recessed seat (14), said seat being open at least at one wall (21) of the foot (21) able to bear on the bearing surface (9) of the container, and said bearing elements (16) provide for each of said angular feet, a first part (19) able to serve as support for at least one segment of the lower surface 12 A, able to bear on the bearing surface (9), of said non recessed portion 12 of the foot, and a second part (17) projecting relative to the first (19), having shape and dimensions matching those of said recessed seat (14), and able to couple with said recessed seat (14), thereby preventing substantial longitudinal or transverse displacements of the container stacked relative to the underlying container.
