Container With Ventilation Chamber

Abstract

A container (1) which includes a base (16), a pair of opposed end walls (2) and a pair of opposed sidewalls (5) into which an insert (9) also having a pair of opposed end walls (11) and a pair of opposed sidewalls (12) is located and secured in position by tabs (14) protruding from the lower edges of the said pair of opposed sidewalls (12). A set of tabs (10) protruding from the upper edges of the end walls (11) and sidewalls. (12) The lower tabs are engaged in rectangular precut slots (8) in the base (16) of the container. (1) The upper tabs(10) are held in position by tabs(4) which are bent at right angles to the end and side walls (2&5) respectively and which have precut rectangular slots(7) which engage the lugs protruding from the pair of end walls (2) and side walls (5) of the insert. (9) The engagement of the lugs (14) and (10) position the insert (9) thus creating a gap between the side walls (2&5) and the sidewalls (11&12) of the insert. (9) This gap forms a chamber (15) around the insert (9) though which air can freely circulate around the product contained within the inner walls of the insert (9)
