Transport container made of cardboard, corrugated cardboard or similar foldable material, and method for producing a pallet transport container

摘要

The bottom (19) of a transport container (25) made of cardboard or the like can be connected to a pallet (10) made of solid material, such as wood. In this case, the bottom (19) is attached to the upper side of the pallet (10). Leaf flaps (23, 24) of the bottom can be pivoted up and thus inserted through a bottom cutout in the container (25) into the interior thereof, whereupon they are anchored by folding them back behind bottom cutouts of the container. In order to design such a releasable connection in a more simple manner and to secure it against displacement, the bottom (19) is attached to the pallet (10) by means of cap bolts (15). The cap bolts (15) pass through the bottom (19) with a free fit whereas they are received in the pallet (10) with press sit. This produces a secure, releasable and easily reproducible fit of the container (25) on the pallet (10) without the risk of tearing, as is the case in known clip connections.
