A container for fluids, solids having flow properties or the like

摘要

A container for fluids, solids having flow properties or the like, and comprising a box of a conventional packing material, such as cardboard, a supporting frame of a material that is stronger and of greater dimensional stability, such as wood, and an inner bag (4) of a conventional packing material, such as a flexible synthetic plastics, for containing the material being packed. The container comprises four opposed frame sidewalls (1, 2), each including a pressure face (8, 13) extending the full height of the respective sidewall. A sleeve (3) of a relatively thin material having a high tensile strength and relatively low stretch, such as paper, a ribbon fabric of plastics, or the like, is provided to extend on the outside of, and around, the pressure faces (8, 13), and from one side of a pressure face (8, 13) substantially direct to the adjacent side edge of the pressure face (13, 8) of the adjacent sidewall, thus cutting the frame corners.
