Abstract
The present invention relates to a nest stackable and interlocking container. The nest stackable and interlocking container comprises a base plate, four side walls, and an upper peripheral edge integrally formed on the side walls, wherein at least one bow is pivotably held in the edges. The bow protrudes into the open interior of the container in an extended position and is received in the edges in a retracted position. The bow comprises two elbow-shaped end areas, which are respectively guided in a semi-circular groove arranged in the side walls of the container. Latching positions are provided in the groove so that the bow may be latched in various positions.
