Container

Abstract

A container includes a box body having a housing trough, a jutting flange on the top that has buffer ridges on two ends, and an engaging member and a latch member extending outwards from two sides close to the frame rim of the jutting flange and an upper lid. The engaging member has a hook and the latch member has a sloped end. The upper lid has a clipping member and a latch plate having respectively a latch slot corresponding to and engageable with the hook and sloped end so that the upper lid can be anchored on the housing trough in an openable manner, and also can form a sealing condition with the box body. Thereby the upper lid can be lifted and opened to remove goods held in the box body by first hitting the buffer ridges to offset too much lifting force. The clipping member further has a latch flange on one end to lean against the outer side of the box body with one sloped surface of the hook holding the periphery rim of the upper cap.

1 . A container comprising a box body which has a housing trough and a jutting flange on the top and an upper lid which has an upper housing trough on a lower side and a recess and a wedge member formed on the periphery thereof, wherein:
 the box body has an engaging member extended from one side close to a frame rim of the jutting flange, the engaging member having a hook on one end, the hook having two sloped surfaces and a protrusive retaining portion, the box body further having a jutting rim and a latch member which has a sloped end on another side in an up and down manner opposing the frame rim;   the upper lid has a clipping member and a latch plate on two sides adjacent to a peripheral rim thereof that have respectively a latch slot corresponding to and engageable respectively with the engaging member and the latch member, the latch slot having a sloped side on a lower side engageable respectively with the sloped surfaces and the protrusive retaining portion of the engaging member and the sloped end of the latch member, the latch plate and the clipping member having respectively a connecting portion connecting to the peripheral rim of the upper lid, the clipping member having a latch flange close to a distal end thereof formed in vertical manner such that the upper lid is allowed to be opened and anchored on one side of the box body without tilting.   
   
   
       2 . The container of  claim 1 , wherein the latch slot of the clipping member has a width smaller than that of the protrusive retaining portion of the hook. 
   
   
       3 . The container of  claim 1 , wherein the latch slot of the latch plate has a width smaller than that of the sloped end of the latch member. 
   
   
       4 . The container of  claim 1 , wherein the upper housing trough of the upper lid has a reinforced rib. 
   
   
       5 . The container of  claim 4 , wherein the reinforced rib is more than one. 
   
   
       6 . The container of  claim 1 , wherein the jutting flange of the box body has buffer ridges on two ends to be coupled with the recess of the upper lid.
