Container with foldable load platform

Abstract

Container with foldable load platform intended for transporting different pieces, so that once the container assembly is empty; it can be folded occupying a reduced space. It is characterized in that it comprises a foldable load container having two opposite side walls with the addition of a central folding line ( 5 ) and two side folding lines ( 6 ) parallel and separated by a distance from the corner joints ( 7 ) of adjacent side walls. Therefore some characteristic inner spaces are created in the folded position of the load container, which allow housing different fastening elements therein, unlike conventionally occurs wherein housing these fastening elements within the inside fold of load container is not possible.

1 . Container with foldable load platform, comprising a base platform, a load container itself that is foldable and a lid for covering the assembly, both in the folded position and in the unfolded position, the load container having at least four side walls parallel in pairs, characterized in that two opposite side walls include a central folding line ( 5 ) and two side folding lines ( 6 ) parallel and separated by a distance from the corners ( 7 ) designed to create internal spaces ( 8 ) in its folded position, defined between end portions ( 9 ) and other centered angular portions ( 10 ) of the side walls including the folding lines ( 5  and  6 ) and between the other two paired side walls, said internal spaces ( 8 ) being designed to house fastening elements. 
     
     
         2 . Container with foldable load platform, according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the fastening elements comprise parallel bars ( 17 ) fixed by their ends to vertical columns ( 18 ) arranged in correspondence with the faced end portions ( 9 ) and in correspondence with the corner joints ( 7 ) of the side walls of the load container ( 3 ). 
     
     
         3 . Container with foldable load platform, according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the fastening elements comprise fixed stops ( 13 ) jointly connected to the inner faces of the side walls, both of the different parts ( 9  and  10 ) on opposite foldable walls and on the other two paired walls. 
     
     
         4 . Container with foldable load platform, according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the fastening elements comprise separator plates ( 14 ) which in turn support some combs ( 15 ), said separator plates ( 14 ) being joined to the side walls of the load container ( 3 ). 
     
     
         5 . Container with foldable load platform, according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the fastening elements comprise separator plates ( 14 ) associated with a foldable packages ( 16 ) defining separate compartments. 
     
     
         6 . Container with foldable load platform, according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the fastening elements comprise some fixed combs ( 15 ) fixed on the centered angular portions ( 10 ) of the side walls of the load container ( 3 ). 
     
     
         7 . Container with foldable load platform, according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the fastening elements consist of a crisscross of lamellar bodies ( 20 ) hanging from two parallel bars ( 17 ) coupled by their ends to some vertical columns ( 18 ). 
     
     
         8 . Container with foldable load platform, according to  claim 1 , characterized in that said container comprises at least one system for retaining the side walls of the container to the base platform. 
     
     
         9 . Container with foldable load platform, according to  claim 8 , characterized in that the at least one retention system is a retention system via a ramp and locking pin comprising:
 at least one ramp for each of the two opposite side walls including a central folding line ( 5 ), the at least one ramp being situated on a loading surface of the base platform;   at least one locking pin in each of the two opposite side walls including a central folding line ( 5 ), the at least one locking pin being situated in the loading surface of the base;   at least one hole in each of the two opposite side walls including a central folding line ( 5 ) through which the at least one ramp and the at least one pin are introduced.   
     
     
         10 . Container with foldable load platform, according to  claim 8 , characterized in that the at least one retention system is a retention system via a latch and cable knob comprising:
 a rod by way of a bridge located in peripheral channels of each of the two opposite side walls including a central folding line ( 5 );   an automatic latch system located at the same height of the rod in each of the two opposite side walls including a central folding line ( 5 ), the latch system comprising at least a carved closure, a latch and a spring;   a tension member, the tension member being covered by a cable-cover guide, joined by one end to the automatic latch system and by the opposite end to a pulling handle; and,   a pulling handle to trigger the latch through the tension member, located at the top of each of the two opposite side walls including a central folding line ( 5 ), comprising an inner handle and an outer handle.
