Abstract
The present invention pertains to a design of the connection between the lower end of a side wall plate 1 and the corresponding longitudinal edge of the bottom plate 2 of a large container. Both the side wall plate 1 and the bottom plate 2 are prefabricated sandwich plates. After the two plates 1, 2 have been joined, a free space 12, which is subsequently filled with foam, is initially left in the transition area between the side wall plate 1 and the bottom plate 2. The transition area or the free space 12 that is subsequently filled with foam is covered, on the one hand, by an inner cover profile 13 between the upper cover plate 7 of the bottom plate 2 and the inner cover plate 4 of the side wall plate 1, and, on the other hand, by an outer cover profile 11 between the outer cover plate 3 of the side wall plate 1 and the lower cover plate 6 of the bottom plate 2. The outer cover profile 11 is in contact, from the outside, with the outer cover plate 3 of the side wall plate 1 and with the front side of the bottom plate 2, which is associated with this side wall. The inner cover profile 13 lies on the inner side of the inner cover plate 4 of the side wall plate 1 and on the top side…
