ABSTRACT:
Polygonal containers of the present invention include a container sides assembly and a container bottom assembly which are adapted for interlocking engagement.
The container sides assembly has a plurality of generally rectangular side panels hingedly interconnected to form an enclosure defining the sides of the polygonal container.
A plurality of lower edge flaps are hingedly connected to the lower edge of the rectangular side panels and are adapted for folding upwardly and inside the enclosure to interlockingly receive corresponding elements from the container bottom assembly.
The container bottom assembly has a polygonal bottom panel having sides equal in number to the rectangular side panels and are of such a size to fit snugly within the container sides assembly when in assembled configuration for forming the container bottom.
A plurality of ear members equal in number to the number of sides of the polygonal bottom panel are each hingedly connected to a side of the polygonal bottom panel and are downwardly extending therefrom for operative engagement with the upwardly extending lower edge flaps of the container sides assembly.
A bottom reinforcement element corresponding generally in shape and size to the polygonal bottom panel is disposed in intimate proximity to the polygonal bottom panel to reinforce and strengthen same.
