Abstract

A box, in particular a pastry box, comprising a cover lid and a base recipient, said cover lid being removable applied on said base recipient, said cover lid comprising a first side and a second side, said first and second side having a common edge, a border of said coverlid, situated opposite to said common edge, being provided with a strip, said strip being provided with at least one protrusion extending offset from a borderline of said strip, on said protrusion there being applied a cam having a front side extending in a direction substantially parallel to said first side when said strip extends substantially perpendicular with respect to said first side in such a manner as to extend inside said base recipient when said cover lid is mounted on said base recipient, said front side being situated offset from said borderline, said base recipient being provided with a first set of openings applied on a side of said base recipient and dimensioned in such a manner as to enable said protrusion to penetrate through said opening, said front side of each of said cams forming a hinge line (h 2 ) for said cover lid when said protrusions have penetrated through said openings.

1 . A box, in particular a pastry box, comprising a cover lid and a base recipient, said cover lid being removable applied on said base recipient, said cover lid comprising a first side provided to form a top plane and a second side provided to form a front plane of said box, said first and second side having a common edge, characterised in that a border of one of said first or second sides, which border is situated opposite to said common edge, is provided with a strip, which strip extends substantially perpendicular to the side on which it is applied when said cover lid is mounted on said base recipient, said strip being provided with at least one protrusion extending offset from a borderline of said strip, on said protrusion there being applied a cam having a front side extending in a direction substantially parallel to said first side when said strip extends substantially perpendicular with respect to said first side in such a manner as to extend inside said base recipient when said cover lid is mounted on said base recipient, said front side being situated offset from said borderline, said base recipient being provided with a first set of openings dimensioned in such a manner as to enable said protrusion to penetrate through said opening, said front side of each of said cams forming a hinge line for said cover lid when said protrusions have penetrated through said openings.  
   
   
       2 . The box as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised in that said strip is hingedly applied on said side of said cover lid and extends along a further hinge line, which further hinge line extends over substantially a whole length of said border.  
   
   
       3 . The box as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised in that said strip is applied on said first side and said first set of openings is applied on a back of said base recipient.  
   
   
       4 . The box as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised in that said protrusion comprises a base plane, said front side of said cam extending substantially perpendicular with respect to said base plane, each of said cams having a back provided with a rounded shape extending downwards from an upper edge of said front side.  
   
   
       5 . The box as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised in that said protrusion has an arc shaped profile.  
   
   
       6 . The box as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised in that said protrusion comprises a peripheral stroke surrounding a basis of said cam.  
   
   
       7 . The box as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised in that said protrusion has an arc shaped profile and comprises a peripheral stroke surrounding a basis of said cam.  
   
   
       8 . The box as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised in that said further hinge line is formed by cuts segmentwise applied in said material of said cover lid.  
   
   
       9 . The box as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised in that said second side comprises a further border situated opposite to said common edge and provided with at least one further protrusion extending offset from said further border, said base recipient being provided with a second set of openings applied on a front side of said base recipient and dimensioned in such a manner as to enable said further protrusion to penetrate through said opening of said second set.  
   
   
       10 . The box as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised in that said cover lid comprises lateral sides linked to said first and second side, said lateral sides being triangularly shaped.  
   
   
       11 . The box as claimed in  claim 10 , characterised in that said second side is trapezium shaped, said common edge forming a top side of said trapezium.  
   
   
       12 . The box as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised in that said first side comprises a first and a second elongated cavity extending each time along a lateral border of said first side.  
   
   
       13 . The box as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised in that said openings of said first set are arc shaped.  
   
   
       14 . The box as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised in that said base recipient comprises a first flap extending from an upper border of said back, in such a manner as to contact said first side of said cover lid when mounted on said base recipient.  
   
   
       15 . The box as claimed in  claim 14 , characterised in that said first flap is trapezium shaped.  
   
   
       16 . The box as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised in that said base recipient comprises a second flap extending from a base plane of said base recipient in such a manner as to contact said second side of said cover lid when mounted on said base recipient.  
   
   
       17 . The box as claimed in  claim 16 , characterised in that said second flap is trapezium shaped.  
   
   
       18 . The box as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised in that said back is trapezium shaped, an upper border of said back forming the upper border of the trapezium.  
   
   
       19 . The box as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised in that said cover lid is made of transparent plastic material.  
   
   
       20 . The box as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised in that said second side of said coverlid is provided with a closure lid and said base recipient with a slit, said closure lid being provided to engage into said slit upon closing said box.
