A freight container of generally cuboidal shape includes a pair of sides (3) which define lateral extremities of the container and extend between ends (1, 2) of the container. The exterior surfaces of the pair of sides are spaced apart by a greater distance along their middle portions (10) than along their end portions (11) which are joined to the ends of the container (1, 2), whereby the overall exterior width of the container is less at the end portions than at the middle portions. The internal width measured between the middle portions of the sides is more than 2400 mm but the overall thickness of each of the middle portions of the sides is less than 25 mm and the overall exterior width measured at the middle portions of the sides is less than 2470 mm. The container therefore has increased capacity for a given size of each end and is able to be located side-by-side with conventional containers.

L'invention se rapporte à un conteneur à marchandises, ayant une forme généralement plus ou moins cubique, qui comprend une paire de parois latérales (3) qui forment les côtés du conteneur et qui s'étendent entre les extrémités (1, 2) dudit conteneur. Les surfaces extérieures des côtés ont un espacement entre elles plus grand au niveau des parties médianes (10) qu'au niveau des parties terminales (11), lesquelles sont jointes aux extrémités du conteneur (1 ,2), de sorte que la largeur extérieure globale du conteneur est plus petite au niveau des parties terminales qu'au niveau des parties médianes. La largeur interne mesurée entre les parties médianes des côtés est supérieure à 2400 mm, mais l'épaisseur globale de chacune des parties médianes des côtés est inférieure à 25 mm et la largeur extérieure globale mesurée au niveau des parties médianes des côtés est inférieure à 2470 mm. Un tel conteneur possède par conséquent une capacité accrue pour une grandeur donnée de chacune de ses extrémités et il peut être placé côte à côte avec des conteneurs classiques.
