PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a collapsable container in which the operation of folding sidewalls in upright positions is facilitated without requiring a troublesome operation, such as re-engaging sidewalls together with hands, by providing unlocking operation members for two sidewalls folded later among four sidewalls. SOLUTION: The collapsable container includes a bottom wall 1, the pair of short sidewalls 2, the pair of long sidewalls 3, locking mechanisms (26 and 45a) for locking the adjacent short and long sidewalls 2 and 3 so as to be put in upright positions upon their engagement. The collapsible container is designed such that the short sidewalls 2 are first folded over the bottom wall 1 and then the long sidewalls 3 are folded over them. Turnable operating members 5 for releasing the sidewalls from the state of being locked by the locking mechanism are attached to the external faces of the long sidewalls 3. The short sidewalls 2 are naturally fall over inside due to the operation of turning the operation members 5. Accordingly, the long sidewalls can be pushed so as to fall over as they are, with hands operating the operation members 5. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI
