FOOD PRODUCT CONTAINER Russian patent published in 2007 - IPC B65D85/30 B65D21/32 

FIELD: containers for storage and transportation of biscuits and other confectioneries especially perceptive to injure which may occur under the action of impact or compressive forces.

SUBSTANCE: container has cover and flat bottom part, said cover and bottom part being made round. Upper surface of cover is made planar and its side surface is formed as straight circular cylinder or truncated cone which may be secured on bottom part. Vertical channels are formed on cover side surface, along its generatrices, said channels terminating on upper surface, and vertical projections are formed on lower planar surface of bottom part, said projections extending circumferentially of bottom part. When containers are stacked, projections of bottom part of superjacent container are inserted into vertical channels of cover of underlying container. Horizontal channels provided on upper surface of cover are arranged at an angle to cover radius and connected with their ends remote from container axis to respective vertical channels. Horizontal projections provided on lower outer surface of bottom part are arranged at an angle so that upon stacking of containers these horizontal projections provided on bottom part of superjacent container are inserted into horizontal channels of cover of underlying container.

EFFECT: enhanced reliability in stacking of containers.
