Patent attributes
The present application contemplates an adjustable volume storage container. The container is formed from two panels (10). The panels are made from a heavy duty paper board or corrugated cardboard, or the like, and are foldable. The panels (10) are prefabricated, each having a slot array (70) and two tabs (72, 74). The panels (10) are also cut to form sub-panels. The panels (10) are folded along lines (40) and (42) so that the tabs (72, 74) of one panel (10) can mate with the slot array (70) of the other panel (10). The particular slot selected determines the length of the container. Once the tabs (72, 74) are mated with the slot arrays (70), the bottom sub-panels (62, 64, 66) are folded under and fastened to form the container bottom. The container is filled, and then the upper sub-panels (50, 52, 54) are folded over and fastened creating the container top.
