A plastic container (1) with a base (2) and mutually opposite side walls (3, 4) has reinforced corner portions (5) at each of its corners on the outside. The corner portions (5) are of double-walled design, an outer wall (6) extending upwards on the outside in each case from the level of the base (2) over part of the height of the side walls (3, 4). The double-walled corner portions (5) have cavities (7), which extend continuously from top to bottom and are subdivided by one or more ribs (8, 8′). The corner portions (5) formed with the continuous cavities (7) provide advantages in production by injection moulding, the core tools achieving a longer service life thanks to better heat dissipation. When the plastic containers (1) according to the invention are being cleaned with water, the continuous cavities (7) allow more hygienic cleaning, the water being able to drain out without any residues being left behind.

A drink cup includes a body formed to include an interior region providing a fluid-holding reservoir and a brim. The brim is coupled to the body to form an opening into the interior region. The body includes a floor and a side wall that extends away from the floor. The drink cup further includes a body-strengthening system coupled to the body.

A mould for forming a collapsible container from an expandable material, the container comprising, at least a base and two pairs of a side walls extending at right angles from opposing sides of the base, the mould comprising: a first mould member and a second mould member movable with respect to each other between an open and a closed moulding position to define a mould cavity; and a plurality of anvils mounted on a rear surface of at least one of the first mould member and/or second mould member, each anvil being movable so as to be extended into the mould cavity so as to form one or more hinges in the expandable material at predetermined locations within the mould cavity; wherein the mould cavity defined by the first mould member and the second mould member is a three-dimensional representation of an inside-out configuration of the assembled container.

A storage trunk including a container, a lid, a latch and a seal is provided. The container can include an upper surface, a plurality of sidewalls, and a bottom surface. The lid can include a top section and a lip disposed adjacent to the top section. The lip can include a latch receiving section having a lock receiving section. The lid can be removably secured to the container. The latch can be connected to the container. The seal can be disposed adjacent to the lip of the lid. In certain embodiments, the storage trunk can include a tie-down element, a handle, and/or a wheel.

A storage apparatus has first and second bins with configurations that match. The bins have movable supports that enable the bins to be stacked on each other and attached to each other when employing the bins to store items in the bins and move the items from one area to another by moving the attached bins. The first and second bins are also nestable together to store the bins in a minimum of storage space when the bins are not in use.

A method for manufacturing a metal container includes a first step of forming a substantially planar four-sided bag using a metal plate; a second step of sandwiching, by first and second parallel plate jigs, one surface and the other surface of the four-sided bag formed in the first step; and a third step of pressurizing an inside of the four-sided bag while maintaining a contact state by the first and second parallel plate jigs with respect to the four-sided bag sandwiched between the first and second parallel plate jigs in the second step, and expanding a volume space in the four-sided bag while increasing a distance between the first and second parallel plate jigs.

The invention relates to a transport container (10, 10′) with a base (14) and Literal walls (18) which extend from the base (14) to a container upper face (16) and which border a container interior (22) in an annular manner, comprising a separator (24) which is received in the container interior (22) in a removable manner. The separator has interconnected separating walls (26) which extend from the base (14) to the container upper face (16), delimit compartments (28), and are made of a flexible web material. Securing elements (12) for releasably securing to the lateral walls (18) are secured to the separating walls (26). Each of the securing elements (32) has an engagement part (40), and the lateral walls (18) have receiving area interiors (34) which are open at the edge towards the container upper face (16) and in which a respective engagement part of the engagement parts (40) is received.
