Plastic container and pallet system

Abstract

Abstract In order to provide a plastic container and a pallet system associated therewith, in which the individual container is resistant to deformation even under thermal stress, has a permanent connection between the structural components, stacks well and is cheap to manufacture, and one or more container(s) can be assembled into a unit, if necessary in association with a specially designed pallet, a container system with at least one box-like plastic container (11) with two end frame parts (12) and a container longitudinal part (18), which can be arranged between these, has been proposed, in which the end frame parts (12) are provided, on their upper and lower edges in the vicinity of the corners, with projections (38) and recesses (39) which, upon the stacking on top of one another of a number of identical plastic containers (11), fit into one another in pairs, and the upwardly pointing projections (38) of the end frame parts (12) respectively have a formed-in upwardly open groove (40), the bottom surface of the groove (40) running essentially parallel to the upper edge of the end frame parts (12). <IMAGE>
