Display container
Abstract
A display container comprises an outer container having end walls and side walls. A support unit is within the outer container. The support unit has a first position in which it is against one of the side or end walls and a second position in which it extends from the side or end wall inwardly into the outer container. A spring is attached to the support unit and biases the support unit into the second position. A member is within the outer container and holds the support unit in the first position. The member is removable from the outer container allowing the support unit to move to the second position.

5 . The display container of claim 4 in which said extension panel is adjacent the other of said side or end walls.
6 . The display container of claim 3 in which said panels form an X in cross section when said support units are in said second position.
7 . The display container of claim 3 in which said spring is a rubber band.
8 . The display container of claim 2 in which said member comprises
a carrier having side walls rotatably attached to a bottom wall, said bottom wall having a length substantially the length between the other of said side or end walls.
