Abstract
An extension collar for a container tray or box which can be readily fitted onto the container and afford varying height extensions for the container. The collar has side members which are first positioned on the top rim of the container and subsequently the end members are attached to the previously positioned collar members by means of projections. The projections have barbed ends positioned either vertically or horizontally for fitting into the previously positioned collar members having a latch arrangement for receiving them. The collar members have flanges for a loose positioning of the collar members on the top rim of the container and are preferably in the form of a flange on one side of the member for engagement with the rim and an opposing hook portion for fitting underneath a projecting wall portion of the rim. The collars can range in height, preferably from one inch to four inches, depending upon the height desired in the extension.
