A collapsible box has a bottom (10) with a plurality of foldable walls (20, 30, 40, 50), each of which is hinged to the bottom (10). Each wall (20, 30, 40, 50) is displaceable between a collapsed state and an erected state, in which the walls (20, 30, 40, 50) are connected by locking means (60). The bottom (10) together with the walls (20, 30, 40, 50) in the erected state define a space. Also, the bottom (10) comprises a guiding element (14) configured to receive at least a part of an upper rim (3) of another collapsible box stacked underneath.

A container (10) consists of a substantially planar blank having a plurality of regions, the regions including a base (18), side walls (14), end walls (16) and a lid (12). Each of the regions is connectable to at least one of the other regions by a hinge (20) formed within the blank. The blank is able to be converted into a first unassembled configuration in which regions of the blank are pivoted around the hinges (20) connecting the regions in relation to other regions, to form a rectangular slab in which compact mode blanks are able to be stacked, and a second configuration in which the blank is erected to form the container (10), which has a cuboidal structure of substantially uniform cross-section, for the storage of articles. The hinge (20) comprises a recess (32) the recess (32) defining a point (30) of minimum cross section, said point (30) forming the pivot point (30) about which pivotal movement of adjacent regions occurs, wherein opposing side walls (33, 35) of the recess (32) are configured to interengage when one of the regions is pivotally moved through a 90° arc relative to an adjacent region, said interengagement comprising meshing of at least one stepped region (34) of a side wall (35) with a surface of the opposing side wall (33). The base (58) of a container (50) may also include ledge portions (60) at each of the corners of the base (58), which ledge portions (60) provide support for hinges (70) when the container is in the cuboidal configuration.

The present invention relates to a collapsible/foldable structure that may include a top roof and a bottom platform. A pair of sidewalls may be provided each of which may be pivotally attached to the roof. The sidewalls may include at least two side section such as an upper and middle section. The sidewalls may also include a lower side section. The upper and middle sections may be pivotally attached to one another and the middle and lower side section may be pivotally attached to one another so that the upper and middle sidewall sections can be pivoted inwardly towards the bottom platform to provide a collapsed condition. The sidewalls may also each contain an outer and an inner surface thereof wherein the outer surface of the upper side wall and the outer surface of the adjacent middle side wall form an angle that is greater than 180 degrees when the structure is in an expanded or collapsed condition. In addition, the inner surface of the middle wall section may overlie the inner surface of the upper wall section in a collapsed condition.

The invention relates to a method for storing and transporting products, wherein, from plastic, foldable containers are manufactured, in particular injection molded; the foldable containers, at a filling location, are brought in a set-up condition and are filled with products; the filled containers are transported to a position of use; the foldable containers are emptied and are collapsed; the containers, in collapsed condition, are returned to the filling location; and the containers are cleaned and reused. The invention further relates to a foldable container which is injection molded from plastic in one piece with integrated hinges, and to specific methods for use of such plastic container.

The present invention provides a container (10) comprising: (a) a semi-enclosed container body including a tubular structure having two open ends and a bottom panel enclosing one end of the container body, the other end of the tubular structure opposite from the bottom panel forming a substantially continuous outwardly-extending peripheral flange (25); (b) a lid (40) for selectively converting the semi-enclosed container to a closed container; and (c) a closure means (30) for sealing the lid to the container body, the closure means comprising a mechanical interlocking seal and a slideable mechanical closure (36) for sealing the mechanical interlocking seal. The container is preferably stackable and self-supporting, and the mechanical interlocking seal includes at least one interlocking bead and groove pair located on the lid and flange. The container may also be collapsible via folding of the tubular structure.
