Container for aerial delivery of goods

A container for dropping from an aerial vehicle, comprising:

• a bottom section, comprising a plurality of edges;
• a plurality of side walls, wherein each side wall comprises an upper edge, a lower edge, and two opposing side edges, wherein each side wall extends upwardly from a corresponding edge of the bottom section and is connected at its lower edge to a corresponding edge of the bottom section, and wherein the plurality of side walls circumferentially enclose a packing volume, wherein each side wall is connected to at least one adjacent side wall at corresponding side edges of the adjacent side walls to form a series of interconnected side walls;
• a wing structure comprising a plurality of wings, wherein each wing is integrally connected to a corresponding side wall at the upper edge of the side wall, and wherein each wing is pivotable around a pivot axis defined by the upper edge of the corresponding side wall between a passive position, in which the wing extends along the corresponding side wall, and a deployed position, in which the wing extends substantially transversely relative to the corresponding side wall;
• a plurality of reinforcing units, one for each wing, to increase the bending stiffness of the wing for preventing bulging of the wings;
• and
• a plurality of retaining units, one for each wing, to limit pivoting of the corresponding wing beyond the deployed position,
• wherein the wing structure, in the deployed position of the wings, is configured to not rotate the container during flight, and to keep the container in an upright orientation.
