ABSTRACT:
A container for transporting goods in the form of packages, bundles or the like having a floor, walls, roof and at least one door which can be locked, is improved such that it can be stored without problem, is spaced-saving when transported empty and light in weight, and allows individual parts to be readily replaced, while at the same time being economical to manufacture.
The container has its floor and roof joined at a distance from each other by vertical corner posts to which stable, rigid sidewalls are also attached such that the corner posts are releasably joined to the floor and roof of the container by cube-like corner pieces. Instead of or in addition to the foregoing design, at least one of the walls feature at least one deep-drawn metal sheet or panel in which stiffening areas are provided, delimited by a peripheral region in the sheet and/or ribs extending from the edge regions.
