(54) Container with retractable lateral retaining devices


(57) The container (1) has a base structure (2) including two lower longitudinal members (5). Each longitudinal member (5) is connected to at least one retaining body (6) having a plurality of longitudinally aligned projecting formations or teeth (8), between which are formed corresponding recesses (9), each of which can be engaged by a locking member carried by an external structure for transporting the container (1), to prevent a relative longitudinal or transverse movement of the container (1) with respect to the transporting structure. The at least one retaining body (6) is connected to the associated longitudinal member (5) in such a way that it can be moved between a retracted rest position and a deployed operating position, in which positions, respectively, said formations or teeth (8) lie within the profile of the container (1) or project transversely therefrom.
