Transport container and transport method

A transport method for individually taking out transported objects stacked in an up-down direction and accommodated in a transport container, wherein

• the transport container is used for transporting the transported objects and includes:
• a bottom member where the transported object is placed;
• left and right side members disposed beside the bottom member;
• a handle member disposed above the bottom member;
• left and right lower connecting members interconnecting the bottom member and the side members;
• and
• left and right upper connecting members interconnecting the side members and the handle member,
• the bottom member and the lower connecting members, the lower connecting members and the side members, the side members and the upper connecting members, and the upper connecting members and the handle member are respectively interconnected via left and right hinges having rotating shafts parallel and horizontal with respect to left and right side surfaces of the bottom member,
• when the handle member is not lifted, the lower connecting members and the upper connecting members are laid to be non-parallel to the side members and the side members are separated from the bottom member,
• when the handle member is lifted, the lower connecting members and the upper connecting members become upright and the side members as structures approach the bottom member to laterally support the transported object placed on the bottom member,
• with the transported object stacked in the up-down direction and accommodated, the transport container is installed at an unloading location such that the lower connecting member and the upper connecting member are laid to be non-parallel to the side member, and
• the transported object placed on the bottom member is taken out from a front or rear between the left and right side members.
