ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a stackable transport container, particularly for fruits, vegetables or dairy products, in which a one-piece blank has a quadrangular bottom and four walls rising upwardly and slanting slightly outwardly therefrom, which walls delimit an upwardly widening container filling space. In the four corners thereof there are arranged upright stacking supports formed by parts of the blank and serving for stiffening the container. The upper edges of the stacking supports are arranged below the upper edges of the adjacent container side wall sections so that during the stacking of two nested containers, the bottom of the upper container rests on the stacking supports of the lower container, the upper edges of the container side walls of the lower container securing the upper container against lateral displacement. Each stacking support is constituted by parts of the blank which can be pushed towards the container filling space and can be pushed back again so that these parts align with the adjacent sections of the container side walls. Thus transport room can be saved by nesting empty containers more closely one to each other after pushing back the stacking supports. Into the hollow space formed by each stacking support and the adjacent container side walls an insert body may be withdrawable inserted, which insert body rests on the container bottom and has an enlarged top surface.
