ABSTRACT:
A pallet container for the transport of liquids, comprises an inner container of synthetic resin supported at its lower, rounded edges on a correspondingly profiled ring of foamed plastic, e.g., styrofoam. The inner container is disposed in an outer shell of sheet metal with a bottom and a lid and with recesses to provide access to the filling and outlet openings of the inner container. The side walls of the sheet metal shell are prestretched between rounded corners of the shell to form supporting columns for stacked pallet containers. A steel tube pallet is welded to the bottom of the shell and comprises a lower tubular steel frame and an upper tubular steel frame welded together at the corners by profiled metal plates and in the middle of the straight sides by small supporting tubes. The outer sheet metal shell has upwardly and downwardly extending rims which receive respectively the lower and upper tubular steel frames of the pallet, the pallet being welded to the bottom of the container.
