To provide an assembled container that can be easily expanded and used as a storage container when in use.

(Prior Art) Conventional hexagonal storage containers are made by folding and assembling board materials such as cardboard that are cut into a certain shape and pre-creased on-site at the time of use, or
Pre-assembled storage containers were transported to the site in the assembled state for use.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) The above-mentioned conventional storage containers are not only time-consuming but also labor-intensive to assemble when used, making them unsuitable for use in busy workplaces. There was a problem with this.

Further, when transporting a storage container that has been assembled in advance, there is a problem that it is bulky and difficult to transport, and furthermore, it is inconvenient to store.

This idea was made to solve this problem.The hexagonal storage container can be folded in two after being assembled, and when it is ready for use, it can be easily expanded and used as a storage container, making it easy to use on site. To provide an assembled container which is not bulky during transportation and is convenient for storage.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In the assembled container according to the present invention, bottom plates are interconnected from the bottom edges of a pair of opposing vertical walls of the assembled container via fold lines, and the opposing bottom plates are connected to each other via fold lines. A notch is formed at the tip of a pair of opposing vertical walls that are connected along the folding line and are adjacent to the vertical wall that connects the bottom plate through the folding line from the bottom edge of the pair of opposing vertical walls.
Further, an engaging plate provided with a folding line for folding the assembled container corresponding to the folding line of the bottom plate is connected, and a pair of vertical walls adjacent to and facing each other are connected to the vertical wall to which the engaging plate is connected. The engaging plate and the overlapping plate are connected to each other from the bottom edge through the fold line, and the pair of overlapping overlapping plates and the engaging plate are configured to engage on the bottom plate when assembled.

Furthermore, a slit is formed in at least one of the mutually engaging engagement plates on the folding line in contact with the notch, and a slit is formed in the overlapping plate superimposed on the engagement plate at a position corresponding to the slit in the engagement plate. A slit is formed.

(Function) In the present invention, an engaging plate and an overlapping plate are connected to the bottom edges of each of a pair of facing vertical walls, and the pair of superimposed overlapping plates and the engaging plate engage with each other during assembly.

Further, since the slits are formed in the engagement plate and the overlapping plate, the pair of superimposed overlapping plates and the engagement plate are reliably engaged to prevent the overlapping plate and the engagement plate from standing up.
