Description of the Related Art Heretofore, as a folding container, an upper frame and a bottom plate, and hinged portions have been attached to the upper frame and the bottom plate so as to be rotatable, respectively, and connected at a connecting portion so as to be bent inward. A pair of upper and lower side plates, and a pair of lid plates provided on two opposing sides of the upper frame to which the side plates are attached so as to be rotatable to open positions along the outer surfaces of both side plates, respectively, and on the other two sides of the upper frame. 2. Description of the Related Art There has been known a configuration in which a pair of tilt plates are rotatably attached to a pair of tilt plates.

できる。[0003] In such a folding container, the upper frame is lifted upward in a folded state, the connecting portion of the both side plates is extended, and then the both tilting plates are put upright between the two side plates to be in an upright state. Thus, the product can be assembled in a box shape, and articles can be taken in and out by opening the lid plate to a position along the outer surface of the side plate. Further, the folded container in the assembled state can be folded by turning both the tilting plates inward with respect to the upper frame and then bending the connecting portions of the both side plates inward.

下してしまうおそれがある。The rigidity when the folding container is assembled is mainly controlled by the tilting plate, and the both side plates are formed by projecting pieces provided on the inner surface of the end thereof and engaging grooves formed on both sides of the tilting plate. Is held so as not to bend outward. However, when an external force is applied to the tilting plate from the side and the tilting plate is deformed or rotated inward, the engagement between the two is easily disengaged, and the side plate may be bent outward. At this time, since a large gap is generated between the side plate and the tilt plate, there is a possibility that stored items may fall out of the box.

た。On the other hand, when an external force is applied from the side (particularly in the longitudinal direction) while the folding container is folded,
The upper frame and the bottom plate may be largely shifted to the side.
At this time, a large force is also applied to the pivot portion between the upper frame or the bottom plate and the side plate, and the hinge shaft or the hinge portion is damaged and becomes unusable. There was a risk of damage, the side plate coming off and the stored items jumping out.

る。Accordingly, the present invention is capable of maintaining the engagement state between the tilt plate and the side plate even when an external force is applied to the tilt plate from the side, preventing the side plate from bending outward, and preventing the side plate from bending outward. It is an object of the present invention to provide a foldable container that can improve the stability of the foldable container and prevent the connection portion from being damaged.

板４，５への押圧力を弱めることができ、組立てや折畳
みを容易に行えるので好都合である。At this time, by forming the shape of the tilt plate 6 so as to become narrower from the mounting portion side to the upper frame 1 toward the lower end (rotating end), the side plate at the time of assembling or folding is formed. This is advantageous because the pressing force applied to 4, 5 can be reduced, and assembly and folding can be easily performed.

に保持されている。In the assembled state of the container, both side edges of the tilting plate 6 come into contact with the inner surfaces of the side plates 4 and 5 to press the connecting portion 3 of the side plates 4 and 5 from the inside, and the side plates 4 and 5 are bent inward. In addition, as shown in FIG. 5, the protrusion 8 provided on the inner surface of the end of the side plate 4 is folded outward by engaging with the engagement grooves 9 provided on both sides of the tilt plate 6. It is held so as not to bend.

An engagement recess 13 with which the engagement protrusion 12 engages is provided. As shown in FIG. 3, when the folding container is folded, the engaging protrusion 12 and the engaging recess 13 engage with each other, so that even when an external force is applied from the side in the longitudinal direction, for example, Even when the folded container is dropped from the side of the bottom plate, the upper frame 1 and the bottom plate 2 can be prevented from shifting to the side, and the hinge portion and the hinge shaft 11 are not damaged. Further, by providing the slopes 12a and 13a at both ends of the engagement convex portion 12 and the engagement concave portion 13, respectively, the both can be smoothly engaged at the time of folding, and a reliable engagement state can be obtained. The upper frame 1 and the bottom plate 2 can be overlapped at a predetermined position. In addition, such an engagement convex part and an engagement concave part can be provided in an appropriate shape in multiple places, and may be upside down.

いる。The inner surface of the side plate 4 is provided with a projection 14 with which the inner surface of the end of the tilt plate 6 comes into contact when the folding container is assembled. The projection 14 has a semicircular cross section as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, and a certain amount of force is applied to the tilting plate 6 at the time of assembly or folding, so that the end of the tilting plate 6 is formed. The outer side surface can get over the protrusion 14, and in use, even when some external force is applied to the tilting plate 6 from the side, a height at which a contact force that does not rotate the tilting plate 6 inward is obtained. It is formed on a curved surface.

とを防止できる。Therefore, even when an external force is applied from the side of the folding plate 6 in the assembled state of the folding container, the end of the folding plate 6 is in contact with the projection 14, so that the folding plate 6 is deformed inward. Rotation can be suppressed. Thereby, the engagement state between the protruding piece 8 and the engagement groove 9 is maintained, and it is possible to prevent the side plates 4 and 5 from being bent outward and generating a gap.

る。As described above, according to the folding container of the present invention, even when an external force is applied from the side of the tilting plate during assembly and use, the state of engagement between the tilting plate and the side plate. Is not detached, so that the side plate does not bend outward and the stored items do not fall from the gap. In addition, by providing the upper frame and the bottom plate with concave and convex portions which engage with each other when the container is folded, the upper frame and the bottom plate can be held side by side even when an external force is applied from the side while the container is folded. The hinge shaft and the like can be prevented from being damaged.
